Forward-Looking Statements
Certain sections of this Annual Report on Form 10-K contain "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 set forth in Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). Examples of forward-looking statements include projected capital resources, projected profitability and portfolio performance, estimates of market rental rates, projected capital improvements, expected sources of financing, expectations as to the timing of closing of acquisitions, dispositions or other transactions, the ability to complete acquisitions and other dispositions and the risks associated therewith, and the expected operating performance of anticipated near-term acquisitions and descriptions relating to these expectations.  We caution investors that any forward-looking statements presented in this Annual Report on Form 10-K are based on management's beliefs and assumptions made by, and information currently available to, management. When used, the words "anticipate," "assume," "believe," "estimate," "expect," "intend," "may," "might," "plan," "potential," "project," "should," "will," "result" and similar expressions that do not relate solely to historical matters are intended to identify forward-looking statements. You can also identify forward-looking statements by discussions of strategy, plans or intentions.
Forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties (some of which are beyond our control) and are subject to change based upon various factors, including but not limited to the following risks and uncertainties:
changes in the real estate industry and in performance of the financial markets;
the actual or perceived impact of U.S. monetary policy;
competition in the leasing market;
the demand for and market acceptance of our properties for rental purposes;
oversupply of office properties in our geographic markets;
the amount and growth of our expenses;
customer financial difficulties and general economic conditions, including increasing interest rates and changes in prices of commodities, as well as economic conditions in our geographic markets;
defaults or non-renewal of leases;
risks associated with joint venture partners;
the risks associated with the ownership and development of real property, including risks related to natural disasters;
risks associated with property acquisitions;
the failure to acquire or sell properties as and when anticipated;
illiquidity of real estate;
termination or non-renewal of property management contracts;
the bankruptcy or insolvency of companies for which we provide property management services or the sale of the related properties;
the outcome of claims and litigation involving or affecting us;
the ability to satisfy conditions necessary to close pending transactions and the ability to successfully integrate businesses;
compliance with environmental and other regulations, including real estate and zoning laws;
our inability to obtain financing;
our inability to use net operating loss carryforwards; and
our failure to maintain our status as real estate investment trust, or REIT, under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). 




A discussion of these and other risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results and events to differ materially from such forward-looking statements is included in "Risk Factors" and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties occur, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, our business, financial condition, liquidity, cash flows and results could differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statement. While forward-looking statements reflect our good faith beliefs, they are not guarantees of future performance. Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made. New risks and uncertainties arise over time, and it is not possible for us to predict the occurrence of those matters or the manner in which they may affect us. Except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement to reflect changes in underlying assumptions or factors, of new information, data or methods, future events or other changes.




PART I

ITEM I. Business

As used herein, the terms "we," "us," "our," "Parkway" and the "Company" refer to Parkway Properties, Inc., a Maryland corporation, individually or together with its subsidiaries, including Parkway Properties LP, a Delaware limited partnership, and our predecessors.  The term "operating partnership" refers to Parkway Properties LP, individually or together with its subsidiaries.

Overview

We are a fully integrated, self-administered and self-managed real estate investment trust ("REIT") specializing in the acquisition, ownership and management of quality office and parking properties in high-growth submarkets in the Sunbelt region of the United States. We owned or had an interest in a portfolio of 51 office and parking properties located in eight states with an aggregate of approximately 17.2 million square feet of leasable space at January 1, 2015. "Part I. Item 2. Properties – Office Buildings" includes a complete listing of properties by market. We offer fee-based real estate services through wholly owned subsidiaries, which in total managed and/or leased approximately 6.0 million square feet for third-party property owners at January 1, 2015. Unless otherwise indicated, all references to square feet represent net rentable area.

Administration

We were formed as a corporation under the laws of the State of Maryland in 1996 and elected to be taxed as a REIT for federal income tax purposes commencing with our taxable year ended December 31, 1997. We generally perform commercial real estate leasing, management and acquisition services on an in-house basis. As of December 31, 2014, we had 322 employees. Our principal executive office is located at 390 North Orange Avenue, Suite 2400, Orlando, Florida 32801 and our telephone number is (407) 650-0593. In addition, we have a regional office in Jacksonville, Florida.

Business Objective and Operating Strategies

Our business objective is to maximize long-term stockholder value by generating sustainable cash flow growth and increasing the long-term value of our real estate assets through operations, acquisitions and capital recycling, while maintaining a conservative and flexible balance sheet. We intend to achieve this objective by executing on the following business and growth strategies:
Create Value as the Leading Owner of Quality Assets in Core Submarkets. Our investment strategy is to pursue attractive returns by focusing primarily on owning high-quality office buildings and portfolios that are well-located and competitively positioned within central business district and urban infill locations within our core submarkets in the Sunbelt region of the United States. In these submarkets, we seek to maintain a portfolio that consists of core, core-plus, and value-add investment opportunities. Further, we intend to pursue an efficient capital allocation strategy that maximizes the returns on our invested capital. This may include selectively disposing of properties when we believe returns have been maximized and redeploying capital into acquisitions or other opportunities.
Maximize Cash Flow by Continuing to Enhance the Operating Performance of Each Property. We provide property management and leasing services to our portfolio, actively managing our properties and leveraging our customer relationships to improve operating performance, maximize long-term cash flow and enhance stockholder value. We seek to attain a favorable customer retention rate by providing outstanding property management and customer service programs responsive to the varying needs of our diverse customer base. We also employ a judicious prioritization of capital projects to focus on projects that enhance the value of our property through increased rental rates, occupancy, service delivery, or enhanced reversion value.
Realize Leasing and Operational Efficiencies and Gain Local Advantage.  We concentrate our real estate portfolio in submarkets where we believe that we can maximize market penetration by accumulating a critical mass of properties and thereby enhance operating efficiencies. We believe that strengthening our local presence and leveraging our extensive market relationships will yield superior market information and service delivery and facilitate additional investment opportunities to create long-term stockholder value.

Recent Significant Activity

On November 17, 2014, we and The California State Teachers' Retirement System ("CalSTRS") terminated the PKY/CalSTRS Austin, LLC joint venture (the "Austin Joint Venture") in Austin, Texas. Pursuant to the transaction agreements, we acquired CalSTRS' 60% interest in San Jacinto Center and One Congress Plaza, resulting in 100% ownership of these two properties, and transferred our 40% interest in Frost Bank Tower, 300 West 6th Street and One American Center to CalSTRS. We also received aggregate net proceeds of approximately $43.6 million from CalSTRS in connection with the transaction and recognized a $52.8 million gain in 2014. Prior to the termination of the joint venture, on a pro rata basis, we owned approximately 966,000 square feet of office space in Austin, Texas and, post-closing, we wholly own approximately 924,000 square feet.

On December 9, 2014, we acquired Corporate Center I, Corporate Center II and Corporate Center III, located in the Westshore submarket of Tampa, Florida, for a gross purchase price of $240.1 million. The acquisition of the Corporate Center assets was funded through a combination of proceeds received from our September 2014 public offering of common stock and borrowings under our senior unsecured revolving credit facility. In conjunction with the closing of the acquisition, we completed the purchase and immediate sale of 19 additional office and parking properties located in six states. We sold these 19 office assets, which were not consistent with our current investment strategy, for a gross sale price of $234.8 million at no gain or loss.

Joint Ventures and Partnerships

Investing in wholly owned properties is the highest priority of our capital allocation. However, we may selectively pursue joint ventures if we determine that such a structure will allow us to reduce anticipated risks related to a property or portfolio, limit concentration of rental revenue from a particular market or building or address unusual operational risks. Under the terms of these joint ventures and partnerships, where applicable, we will seek to manage all phases of the investment cycle including acquisition, financing, operations, leasing and dispositions, and we will seek to receive fees for providing these services.

Parkway Properties Office Fund II, L.P.

At December 31, 2014, we had one consolidated partnership structured as a discretionary fund. Parkway Properties Office Fund II, L.P. ("Fund II"), a $750.0 million discretionary fund, was formed on May 14, 2008. Fund II was structured with the Teacher Retirement System of Texas ("TRST") as a 70% investor and our operating partnership as a 30% investor, with an original target capital structure of approximately $375.0 million of equity capital and $375.0 million of non-recourse, fixed-rate first mortgage debt.  Fund II currently owns seven properties totaling 2.5 million square feet in Atlanta, Georgia; Phoenix, Arizona; Jacksonville, Florida; and Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. In August 2012, Fund II increased its investment capacity by $20.0 million to purchase Hayden Ferry Lakeside III, IV and V, a 2,500 space parking garage, a 21,000 square foot office property and a vacant parcel of land available for development, all adjacent to our Hayden Ferry Lakeside I and Hayden Ferry Lakeside II office properties in Phoenix, Arizona. In August 2013, Fund II expanded its investment guidelines solely for the purpose of authorizing the purchase of a parcel of land available for development in Tempe, Arizona. In April 2014, Fund II authorized the development of Hayden Ferry Lakeside III, as well as the transfer of an interest in the owner of Hayden Ferry Lakeside III, a subsidiary of Fund II, to our operating partnership. We now own a 70% indirect interest in Hayden Ferry Lakeside III. In October 2014, Fund II sold approximately one acre of land located in Tempe, Arizona for a gross sale price of $2.0 million.

We serve as the general partner of Fund II and provide asset management, property management, leasing and construction management services to the fund, for which we are paid market-based fees. Cash is distributed by Fund II pro rata to each partner until a 9% annual cumulative preferred return is received and invested capital is returned. Thereafter, 56% will be distributed to TRST and 44% to us. The term of Fund II is seven years from the date the fund was fully invested, or until February 2019, with provisions to extend the term for two additional one-year periods at our discretion.

Joint Ventures

In addition to the 49 office and parking properties included in our consolidated financial statements, we were also invested in two unconsolidated joint ventures with unrelated investors as of December 31, 2014.

On June 3, 2013, we purchased an approximate 75% interest in the US Airways Building, a 225,000 square foot office property located in the Tempe submarket of Phoenix, Arizona, for a purchase price of $41.8 million. At closing, a subsidiary of ours issued a $3.5 million mortgage loan to an affiliate of US Airways, which is secured by the building. The mortgage loan carries a fixed interest rate of 3.0% and matures in December 2016. This nine-story office building is adjacent to our Hayden Ferry Lakeside and Tempe Gateway assets and shares a parking garage with our Tempe Gateway asset. The property is the headquarters for US Airways, which has leased 100% of the building through April 2024. US Airways has a termination option on December

6


31, 2016 or December 31, 2021 with 12 months prior notice. US Airways is also the owner of the remaining approximate 25% interest in the building.

On November 5, 2013, we and our joint venture partner foreclosed and took ownership of 7000 Central Park, a 414,000 square foot office building located in the Central Perimeter of Atlanta, Georgia. We previously acquired a 40% common equity interest in a mortgage note in the original principal amount of $65 million secured by the asset. The total purchase price for the note, which was previously under special servicer oversight, was $56.6 million plus an additional $318,000 in transaction costs. Our share of such amount was approximately $45.0 million, comprised of an investment of approximately $37.0 million for a preferred equity interest in the joint venture that acquired the note and an investment of approximately $8.0 million for a 40% common equity interest. On December 13, 2013, we and our joint venture partner placed secured financing on the asset in the amount of $30.0 million, the net proceeds of which were used to repay a portion of our initial preferred equity investment, reducing the preferred equity interest to approximately $7.6 million. The balance of our investment in the joint venture was $15.8 million as of December 31, 2014.

On December 19, 2013, we acquired Thomas Properties Group, Inc.'s ("TPGI") interest in the Austin Joint Venture as part of the merger transactions with TPGI (the “Mergers"). As of December 31, 2013, we and Madison International Realty, a New York based private equity firm ("Madison") owned a 50% interest in the Austin Joint Venture, of which our ownership was 33%. The Austin Joint Venture owned the following properties: San Jacinto Center; Frost Bank Tower; One Congress Plaza; One American Center; and 300 West 6th Street. On January 24, 2014, pursuant to a put right held by Madison, we purchased Madison’s approximately 17% interest in the Austin Joint Venture for a purchase price of approximately $41.5 million. On February 10, 2014, CalSTRS exercised an option to purchase 60% of Madison's former interest on the same terms that we acquired the interest from Madison for approximately $24.9 million. After giving effect to these transactions, we had a 40% interest in the Austin Joint Venture, with CalSTRS owning the remaining 60%. On November 17, 2014, we terminated the joint venture as described under "Recent Significant Activity."

Third-Party Management

We benefit from a fully integrated management infrastructure, provided by certain of our wholly owned subsidiaries (collectively, our "management companies").  As of January 1, 2015, our management companies managed and/or leased properties containing an aggregate of approximately 23.2 million net rentable square feet, of which approximately 17.2 million net rentable square feet related to properties owned fully or partially by us and approximately 6.0 million net rentable square feet related to properties owned by third parties.

Financing Strategy

Our financing strategy is to maintain a strong and flexible financial position by limiting our debt to a prudent level. We monitor a number of leverage and other financial metrics defined in our senior unsecured revolving credit facility and unsecured term loans, which includes but is not limited to our total debt to total asset value. In addition, we also monitor interest and fixed charge coverage ratios as well as the net debt to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") multiple. Other traditional measures of leverage are also monitored. Management believes all of the leverage and other financial metrics it monitors, including those discussed above, provide useful information on total debt levels as well as our ability to cover interest and principal with current income.  

We intend to finance future growth and future maturing debt with the most advantageous source of capital when available, while also maintaining our variable interest rate exposure at a prudent level. Sources of capital may include selling common or preferred equity or debt securities through public offerings or private placements. We may also finance specific assets with non-recourse mortgage financing. In such cases, we expect to continue seeking primarily fixed rate, non-recourse mortgage financing with maturities from five to ten years typically amortizing over 25 to 30 years on select office building investments.
    
We may, in appropriate circumstances, acquire one or more properties in exchange for our equity securities. We have no set policy as to the amount or percentage of our assets that may be invested in any specific property. Rather than a specific policy, we evaluate each property in terms of whether and the extent to which the property meets our investment criteria and strategic objectives. The strategies and policies set forth above were determined and are subject to review by our Board of Directors, which may change such strategies or policies based upon their evaluation of the state of the real estate market, the performance of our assets, capital and credit market conditions, and other relevant factors.

Capital Allocation

Capital allocation receives constant review by management and our Board of Directors, which considers many factors including the capital markets, our weighted average cost of capital, buying criteria, the real estate market and management of the risk associated with the rate of return. We examine all aspects of each type of investment, whether it is fee simple, a joint venture or a mortgage loan receivable, including but not limited to the estimated discount to replacement cost, current yield, and the leveraged and unleveraged internal rate of return.

Segment Reporting

Our primary business is the ownership and operation of office and parking properties. We account for each office and parking property or groups of related office and parking properties as an individual operating segment. We have aggregated our individual operating segments into a single reporting segment due to the fact that the individual operating segments have similar operating and economic characteristics, such as being leased by the square foot, sharing the same primary operating expenses and ancillary revenue opportunities and being cyclical in economic performance based on current supply and demand conditions. The individual operating segments are also similar in that revenues are derived from the leasing of office space to customers and each office and parking property is managed and operated consistently in accordance with our standard operating procedures. The range and type of customer uses of our properties is similar throughout our portfolio regardless of location or class of building and the needs and priorities of our customers do not vary widely from building to building. Therefore, our management responsibilities do not vary widely from location to location based on the size of the building, geographic location or class.

Regulation/Environmental

We believe that our properties are in compliance in all material respects with all federal, state and local ordinances and regulations regarding hazardous or toxic substances. We are not aware of any environmental condition that we believe would have a material adverse effect on our capital expenditures, earnings or competitive position (before consideration of any potential insurance coverage). Nevertheless, it is possible that there are material environmental conditions and liabilities of which we are unaware. Moreover, no assurances can be given that (1) future laws, ordinances or regulations or future interpretations of existing requirements will not impose any material environmental liability or (2) the current environmental condition of our properties has not been or will not be affected by customers and occupants of our properties, by the condition of properties in the vicinity of our properties or by third parties.

Insurance

We, or in certain instances, customers at our properties, carry comprehensive commercial general liability, fire, extended coverage, business interruption, rental loss coverage, environmental, and umbrella liability coverage on all of our properties. We also carry wind and flood coverage on properties in areas where we believe such coverage is warranted, in each case with limits of liability that we deem adequate. Similarly, we are insured against the risk of direct physical damage in amounts we believe to be adequate to reimburse us, on a replacement cost basis, for costs incurred to repair or rebuild each property, including loss of rental income during the reconstruction period. We believe that our insurance coverage contains policy specifications and insured limits that are customary for similar properties, business activities and markets, and we believe our properties are adequately insured. However, we may be subject to certain types of losses that are generally uninsured losses, including, but not limited to, losses caused by riots, war or acts of God. In the opinion of our management, our properties are adequately insured given the relative risk of loss, the cost of the coverage, and industry practice.

Competition

We compete with a considerable number of other real estate companies, financial institutions, pension funds, private partnerships, individual investors and others when attempting to acquire and lease office space in the markets in which we own properties. Principal factors of competition in our business are the quality of properties (including the design and condition of improvements), leasing terms (including rent and other charges and allowances for tenant improvements), attractiveness and convenience of location, the quality and breadth of customer services provided and reputation as an owner and operator of quality office and parking properties in the relevant market. Our ability to compete also depends on, among other factors, trends in the national and local economies, financial condition and operating results of current and prospective customers, availability and cost of capital, taxes and governmental regulations and legislation.

ITEM 1A.                         Risk Factors.

In addition to the other information contained or incorporated by reference in this document, readers should carefully consider the following risk factors.  Any of these risks or the occurrence of any one or more of the uncertainties described below could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and the performance of our business.

Risks Related to Our Properties and Business

We face risks associated with our recent and future property acquisitions.

Since January 1, 2014, we have acquired ten wholly owned office properties, one land parcel available for development, and one leasehold interest in land available for development adding over 3.2 million square feet of office space. The acquired interests we received from CalSTRS added 924,000 square feet of wholly owned office space to our portfolio. During the year ended December 31, 2014, the total square footage of our portfolio decreased by approximately 2.3% when considering these acquisitions, net of dispositions. In addition, we intend to continue to pursue the acquisition of properties and portfolios of properties, including large portfolios that could further increase our size and result in further alterations to our capital structure.

Our acquisition activities and their success are subject to the following risks:

acquisition agreements contain conditions to closing, which may include completion of due diligence investigations to our satisfaction or other conditions that are not within our control, which may not be satisfied;

we may be unable to finance acquisitions on favorable terms or at all;

acquired properties may fail to perform as expected;

the actual costs of repositioning acquired properties may be higher than our estimates;

we may not be able to obtain adequate insurance coverage for new properties;

acquired properties may be located in new markets where we face risks associated with an incomplete knowledge or understanding of the local market and a limited number of established business relationships in the area; and

we may acquire properties subject to liabilities and without any recourse, or with only limited recourse, to the transferor with respect to unknown liabilities, including liabilities for clean-up of undisclosed environmental contamination or non-compliance with environmental laws. As a result, if a claim were asserted against us based upon ownership of those properties, we might have to pay substantial sums to settle it, which could adversely affect our cash flow.

Our business and operating results could be negatively affected if we are unable to integrate our recent and future acquisitions successfully.

Integration of acquisitions involves a number of significant risks, including the diversion of management's attention to the assimilation of the operations of the acquired businesses or assets; difficulties in the integration of operations and systems; the inability to realize potential operating synergies; difficulties in the assimilation and retention of the personnel of the acquired companies; accounting, regulatory or compliance issues that could arise, including internal control over financial reporting; and challenges in retaining the customers of the combined businesses. Further, acquisitions may have a material adverse impact on our operating results if unanticipated expenses or charges to earnings were to occur, including unanticipated operating expenses

9



and depreciation and amortization expenses over the useful lives of certain assets acquired, as well as costs related to potential impairment charges, assumed litigation and unknown liabilities. If we are unable to successfully integrate our recent and future acquisitions in a timely and cost-effective manner, our operating results could be negatively affected.

Competition for acquisitions may reduce the number of acquisition opportunities available to us and increase the costs of those acquisitions.

We plan to continue to acquire properties as we are presented with attractive opportunities. We may face competition for acquisition opportunities from other investors and this competition may adversely affect us by subjecting us to the following risks:
 
an inability to acquire a desired property because of competition from other well-capitalized real estate investors, including publicly traded and privately held REITs, private real estate funds, domestic and foreign financial institutions, life insurance companies, sovereign wealth funds, pension trusts, partnerships and individual investors; and

an increase in the purchase price for such acquisition property in the event we are able to acquire such desired property.

We may be unable to develop new properties successfully, which could adversely affect our results of operations due to unexpected costs, delays and other contingencies.

From time to time, we may acquire unimproved real property for development purposes as market conditions warrant. In addition to the risks associated with the ownership of real estate investments in general and investments in joint ventures, there are significant risks associated with our development activities, including the following:

delays in obtaining, or an inability to obtain, necessary zoning, land-use, building, occupancy and other required governmental permits and authorizations, which could result in completion delays and increased development costs;

incurring development costs for a property that exceed original estimates due to increased materials, labor or other costs, changes in development plans or unforeseen environmental conditions, which could make completion of the property more costly or uneconomical;

abandoning development projects that we have begun to explore or for which we have started development and failing to recover expenses and costs incurred through the time of abandonment;

risk of loss of periodic progress payments or advances to builders prior to completion;

termination of leases by customers due to completion delays;

the lease-up of space at our development projects may be slower than expected, resulting in lower than expected occupancy levels;

rental rates achieved for leased space at our development projects may be lower than anticipated; and

other risks related to the lease-up of newly constructed properties.

In addition, we also rely on rental income and expense projections and estimates of the fair market value of a property upon completion of construction when agreeing upon a purchase price at the time we acquire unimproved real property. If our projections are inaccurate, including due to any of the risks described above, we may pay too much for a property and be unable to charge rents that compensate us for our increased costs which could adversely affect our results of operations.

TPG VI Pantera Holdings, L.P. is a significant stockholder and may have conflicts of interest with us in the future.

As of December 31, 2014, TPG VI Pantera Holdings, L.P. ("TPG Pantera") and TPG VI Management, LLC (“TPG Management"), an affiliate of TPG Pantera (collectively, the "TPG Entities"), owned approximately 21% of our issued and outstanding common stock and limited voting stock together. In addition, so long as TPG Pantera owns at least 10% of our issued and outstanding common stock, TPG Pantera has a pre-emptive right to participate in our future equity issuances, subject to certain conditions. This concentration of ownership in one stockholder could potentially be disadvantageous to other stockholders' interests. In addition, if TPG Pantera were to sell or otherwise transfer all or a large percentage of its holdings, our stock price could decline and we could find it difficult to raise capital, if needed, through the sale of additional equity securities.


10



The interests of the TPG Entities may differ from the interests of our other stockholders in material respects. For example, the TPG Entities may have an interest in directly or indirectly pursuing acquisitions, divestitures, financings or other transactions that, in their judgment, could enhance their other equity investments, even though such transactions might involve risks to us. The TPG Entities are in the business of making or advising on investments in companies and may from time to time in the future acquire interests in, or provide advice to, businesses that directly or indirectly compete with certain portions of our business. They may also pursue acquisition opportunities that may be complementary to our business, and, as a result, those acquisition opportunities may not be available to us.

Our stockholders agreement with the TPG Entities grants TPG Pantera certain rights that may restrain our ability to take various actions in the future.

In connection with TPG Pantera's May 2012 investment in us, we entered into a stockholders agreement with the TPG Entities, pursuant to which we granted TPG Pantera certain rights that may restrain our ability to take various actions in the future. Under the stockholders agreement, as amended, we have agreed to maintain a ten member board of directors, and TPG Pantera will have the right to nominate a specified number of directors to the board and to have a specified number of such directors appointed to each committee of the board of directors for so long as TPG Pantera's ownership percentage of our common stock is equal to or greater than 5%. TPG Pantera will be entitled to nominate to the board (1) four directors if TPG Pantera's ownership percentage of our common stock is at least 21% and it continues to own at least 90% of the shares of our common stock that it owned as of the completion of our underwritten public offering in December 2012 (the "2012 offering"), which is approximately 21.2 million shares, (2) three directors if TPG Pantera's ownership percentage is at least 17.5% but less than 21% and it continues to own at least 70% of the shares of our common stock that it owned as of the completion of the 2012 offering, which is approximately 16.5 million shares, (3) two directors if TPG Pantera's ownership percentage is at least 13% but less than 17.5%, and (4) one director if TPG Pantera's ownership percentage is at least 5% but less than 13%. In addition, we have agreed to constitute each of our board committees as a four member committee and (1) for so long as TPG Pantera's ownership percentage of our common stock is equal to or greater than 20%, TPG Pantera has the right to have two of its nominated directors appointed to each committee of the board, and (2) for so long as TPG Pantera's ownership percentage is equal to or greater than 5% but less than 20%, TPG Pantera will have the right to have one of its nominated directors appointed to each committee of the board.

Pursuant to the terms of the stockholders agreement, TPG Pantera also will have the right to consent to certain actions related to our corporate existence and governance, including any change in the rights and responsibilities of either the investment committee of the board or the compensation committee of the board, for so long as TPG Pantera's ownership percentage of our common stock is equal to or greater than 20%, other than in connection with any change in control.

In addition, for so long as TPG Pantera's ownership percentage of our common stock is equal to or greater than 5%, other than in connection with any change in control of us, the rights and responsibilities of the investment committee of the board will include (1) except for certain permitted issuances relating to outstanding rights to purchase or acquire our capital stock, compensation arrangements and acquisition transactions, any sale or issuance of any capital stock or other security, (2) any incurrence of indebtedness with a principal amount greater than $20 million, and (3) any other matters over which the investment committee currently has approval authority, including without limitation material asset acquisitions and dispositions. During such period, the rights and responsibilities of the compensation committee of the board will include (1) the hiring or termination of any of our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Chief Operating Officer or Chief Investment Officer, or any material change in any of the duties of any such executive officer, and (2) any approval of future compensation arrangements for such officers. During such period, the board may not approve such matters without the affirmative approval of the investment committee or the compensation committee, as applicable.

Our performance is subject to risks inherent in owning real estate investments.

We are generally subject to risks incidental to the ownership of real estate. These risks include:

changes in supply of or demand for office and parking properties or customers for such properties in areas in which we own buildings;

the ongoing need for capital improvements;

increased operating costs, which may not necessarily be offset by increased rents, including insurance premiums, utilities and real estate taxes, due to inflation and other factors;

changes in tax, real estate and zoning laws;


11



changes in governmental rules and fiscal policies;

inability of customers to pay rent;

competition from the development of new office space in the markets in which we own property and the quality of competition, such as the attractiveness of our properties as compared to our competitors' properties based on considerations such as convenience of location, rental rates, amenities and safety record; and

civil unrest, acts of war, terrorism, acts of God, including earthquakes, hurricanes and other natural disasters (which may result in uninsured losses), and other factors beyond our control.

Should any of these events occur, our financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.

Our business could be adversely affected by security breaches through cyber attacks, cyber intrusions or otherwise. 

We face risks associated with security breaches, whether through cyber attacks or cyber intrusions over the internet, malware, computer viruses, attachments to e-mails, persons inside our organization or persons with access to systems inside our organization, and other significant disruptions of our information technology networks and related systems. These risks include operational interruption, private data exposure and damage to our relationship with our customers, among others. Although we make efforts to maintain the security and integrity of our information technology networks and related systems and we have implemented various measures to manage the risk of a security breach or disruption, there can be no assurance that these activities will be effective. A security breach involving our networks and related systems could disrupt our operations in numerous ways that could ultimately have an adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

The conditions of our primary markets affect our operations.

Substantially all of our properties are located in the Southeastern and Southwestern United States and, therefore, our financial condition and ability to make distributions to our stockholders is linked to economic conditions in these markets as well as the market for office space generally in these markets. An economic downturn in these markets, particularly increases in unemployment, may adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

Additionally, the geographic concentration of our exposure makes us particularly susceptible to adverse weather conditions that threaten southern and coastal states, such as hurricanes and flooding. Although we anticipate and plan for losses, even a single catastrophe or destructive weather event may have a significant negative effect on our financial condition and results of operations because of the concentration of our properties.

If global market and economic conditions deteriorate, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.

Although the U.S. economy has emerged from the recent recession and economic data reflects a stabilization of the economy and credit markets, the cost and availability of credit and the commercial real estate market generally may be adversely affected by persistent high levels of unemployment, insufficient consumer demand or confidence, the impacts of changes in the U.S. federal budgetary process, changes in regulatory environments and other macro-economic factors. If current economic conditions deteriorate, business layoffs, downsizing, industry slowdowns and other similar factors that affect our customers could negatively impact commercial real estate fundamentals and result in lower occupancy, lower rental rates and declining values in our real estate portfolio. The timing of changes in occupancy levels tends to lag the timing of changes in overall economic activity and employment levels. Additionally, deteriorating economic conditions could have an impact on our lenders or customers, causing them to fail to meet their obligations to us. No assurances can be given that the current economic conditions will continue to improve, and if the economic recovery slows or stalls, our ability to lease our properties and increase or maintain rental rates may be affected, which would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We face considerable competition in the leasing market and may be unable to renew existing leases or re-let space on terms similar to our existing leases, or we may expend significant capital in our efforts to re-let space, which may adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

Each year, we compete with a number of other owners and operators of office and parking properties to renew leases with our existing customers and to attract new customers. To the extent that we are able to renew leases that are scheduled to expire in the short-term or re-let such space to new customers, heightened competition resulting from adverse market conditions may require us to utilize rent concessions and tenant improvements to a greater extent than we historically have. In addition, the

12



economic downturn of the last several years has led to increased competition for credit worthy customers and we may have difficulty competing with competitors who have purchased properties at depressed prices because our competitor's lower cost basis in their properties may allow them to offer space at reduced rental rates.

If our competitors offer space at rental rates below current market rates or below the rental rates we currently charge our customers, we may lose potential customers, and we may be pressured to reduce our rental rates below those we currently charge in order to retain customers upon expiration of their existing leases. Even if our customers renew their leases or we are able to re-let the space, the terms and other costs of renewal or re-letting, including the cost of required renovations, increased tenant improvement allowances, leasing commissions, declining rental rates, and other potential concessions, may be less favorable than the terms of our current leases and could require significant capital expenditures. If we are unable to renew leases or re-let space in a reasonable time, or if rental rates decline or tenant improvement, leasing commissions, or other costs increase, our financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.

An oversupply of space in our markets would typically cause rental rates and occupancies to decline, making it more difficult for us to lease space at attractive rental rates, if at all.

Undeveloped land in many of the markets in which we operate is generally more readily available and less expensive than in higher barrier-to-entry markets such as New York, New York; Chicago, Illinois; Boston, Massachusetts; and San Francisco and Los Angeles, California. As a result, even during times of positive economic growth, our competitors could construct new buildings that would compete with our properties. Any such oversupply could result in lower occupancy and rental rates in our portfolio, which would have a negative impact on our results of operations.

Customer defaults could adversely affect our operations.

The majority of our revenues and income come from rental income from real property. As such, our revenues and income could be adversely affected if a significant number of our customers defaulted under their lease obligations. Our ability to manage our assets is also subject to federal bankruptcy laws and state laws that limit creditors' rights and remedies available to real property owners to collect delinquent rents. If a customer becomes insolvent or bankrupt, we cannot be sure that we could recover the premises from the customer promptly or from a trustee or debtor-in-possession in any bankruptcy proceeding relating to that customer. We also cannot be sure that we would receive rent in the proceeding sufficient to cover our expenses with respect to the premises. If a customer becomes bankrupt, the federal bankruptcy code will apply and, in some instances, may restrict the amount and recoverability of our claims against the customer. A customer's default on its obligations to us could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

Our business could be adversely affected by a decline in commodity prices.

The Houston market represents approximately 24.9% of the square footage which we owned or had an interest in as of December 31, 2014. The Houston market is economically dependent on the petroleum industry. A key economic variable that affects the petroleum industry is the price of crude oil, which can be influenced by general economic conditions, industry inventory levels, production quotas imposed by the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries , weather-related damage and disruptions, competing fuel prices and geopolitical risk. If the Houston market faces significant exposure to fluctuations in global crude oil prices, particularly for extended periods of time, or oil prices continue to decrease, the Houston market may experience business layoffs, downsizing, industry slowdowns and other similar factors. These potential risks to our customers in Houston could negatively impact commercial real estate fundamentals and result in lower occupancy, lower rental rates and declining values in our real estate portfolio in the Houston market.

Some of our leases provide customers with the right to terminate their leases early, which could have an adverse effect on our cash flow and results of operations.

Certain of our leases permit our customers to terminate their leases as to all or a portion of the leased premises prior to their stated lease expiration dates under certain circumstances, such as providing notice by a certain date and, in most cases, paying a termination fee. To the extent that our customers exercise early termination rights, our cash flow and earnings will be adversely affected, and we can provide no assurances that we will be able to generate an equivalent amount of net effective rent by leasing the vacated space to new third-party customers.






13



Leasing office space to smaller and growth-oriented businesses could adversely affect our cash flow and results of operations.

Some of the tenants in our properties are smaller, growth-oriented businesses that may not have the financial strength of larger corporate tenants. Smaller companies generally experience a higher rate of failure than large businesses. Growth-oriented firms may also seek other office space as they develop. Leasing office space to these companies could create a higher risk of tenant defaults, turnover and bankruptcies, which could adversely affect our distributable cash flow and results of operations.

Our expenses may remain constant or increase, even if our revenues decrease, causing our results of operations to be adversely affected.

Costs associated with our business, such as mortgage payments, real estate taxes, insurance premiums, and maintenance costs, are relatively inflexible and generally do not decrease, and may increase, when a property is not fully occupied, rental rates decrease, a customer fails to pay rent or other circumstances cause a reduction in property revenues. As a result, if revenues drop, we may not be able to reduce our expenses accordingly, which would adversely affect our results of operations.
 
Our property taxes could increase due to property tax rate changes or reassessment, which could impact our cash flows.

Even if we qualify as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes, we will be required to pay state and local taxes on our properties. The real property taxes on our properties may increase as property tax rates change or as our properties are assessed or reassessed by taxing authorities. Therefore, the amount of property taxes we pay in the future may increase substantially from what we have paid in the past. If the property taxes we pay increase, our financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, per share trading price of our common stock and our ability to satisfy our principal and interest obligations and to make distributions to our stockholders could be adversely affected.

Illiquidity of real estate may limit our ability to vary our portfolio.

Real estate investments are relatively illiquid. Our ability to vary our portfolio by selling properties and buying new ones in response to changes in economic and other conditions may therefore be limited. In addition, the Code limits our ability to sell our properties by imposing a penalty tax of 100% on the gain derived from prohibited transactions, which are defined as sales of property held primarily for sale to customers in the ordinary course of a trade or business. The frequency of sales and the holding period of the property sold are two primary factors in determining whether the property sold fits within this definition. These considerations may limit our opportunities to sell our properties. If we must sell an investment, we cannot assure you that we will be able to dispose of the investment in the time period we desire or that the sales price of the investment will recoup or exceed our cost for the investment, or that the penalty tax would not be assessed.

We may acquire properties or portfolios of properties through tax deferred contribution transactions, which could result in stockholder dilution and limit our ability to sell such assets.

We have acquired, and we may acquire in the future, properties or portfolios of properties through tax deferred contribution transactions in exchange for partnership interests in our operating partnership. These transactions can result in stockholder dilution. This acquisition structure can have the effect of, among other things, reducing the amount of tax depreciation we could deduct over the tax life of the acquired properties, and may require (and in the case of our properties, requires) that we agree to protect the contributors’ ability to defer recognition of taxable gain through restrictions on our ability to dispose of the acquired properties and/or the allocation of partnership debt to the contributors to maintain their tax bases. These restrictions could limit our ability to sell an asset at a time, or on terms, that would be favorable absent such restrictions.

Certain of our properties may represent a significant portion of our revenues and assets.

As of January 1, 2015, one of our properties, CityWestPlace accounted for approximately 10.4% of our assets on a consolidated basis. No other property accounted for more than 10% of our portfolio's annualized base rent or assets as of January 1, 2015. Our revenue and cash available for distribution to our stockholders would be materially and adversely affected if this property were materially damaged or destroyed. Additionally, our revenue and cash available for distribution to our stockholders would be materially adversely affected if tenants at this property experienced a downturn in their business, which could weaken their financial condition and result in their failure to make timely rental payments, defaulting under their leases or filing for bankruptcy.

Our joint venture investments could be adversely affected by the capital markets, our lack of sole decision-making authority, our reliance on joint venture partner's financial condition and any disputes that may arise between us and our joint venture partners.

We have in the past co-invested, and may in the future co-invest, with third parties through partnerships, joint ventures or other structures, acquiring non-controlling interests in, or sharing responsibility for managing the affairs of, a property, partnership, co-tenancy or other entity. Therefore, we may not be in a position to exercise sole decision-making authority regarding the properties owned through joint ventures. In addition, investments in joint ventures may, under certain circumstances, involve risks not present when a third party is not involved, including potential deadlocks in making major decisions, restrictions on our ability to exit the joint venture, reliance on our joint venture partners and the possibility that joint venture partners might become bankrupt or fail to fund their share of required capital contributions, thus exposing us to liabilities in excess of our share of the investment or take action that could jeopardize our REIT status. The funding of our capital contributions may be dependent on proceeds from asset sales, credit facility advances and/or sales of equity securities. Joint venture partners may have business interests or goals that are inconsistent with our business interests or goals and may be in a position to take actions contrary to our policies or objectives. We may in specific circumstances be liable for the actions of our joint venture partners. In addition, any disputes that may arise between us and joint venture partners may result in litigation or arbitration that would increase our expenses.

We and our properties are subject to various federal, state and local regulatory requirements, such as environmental laws, state and local fire and safety requirements, building codes and land use regulations.
    
We, our tenants, and our properties are subject to various federal, state and local regulatory requirements, such as environmental laws, state and local fire and safety requirements, building codes and land use regulations. Failure to comply with these requirements could subject us or our tenants to governmental fines or private litigant damage awards. In addition, compliance with these requirements, including new requirements or stricter interpretation of existing requirements, may require us or our tenants to incur significant expenditures. We do not know whether existing requirements will change or whether future requirements, including any requirements that may emerge from pending or future climate change legislation, will develop. Environmental noncompliance liability also could impact a tenant's ability to make rental payments to us. Furthermore, our reputation could be negatively affected if we violate environmental laws or regulations.

In addition, as a current or former owner or operator of real property, we may be subject to liabilities resulting from the presence of hazardous substances, waste or petroleum products at, on, under or emanating from such property, including investigation and cleanup costs; natural resource damages; third-party liability for cleanup costs; personal injury or property damage; and costs or losses arising from property use restrictions. Cleanup liabilities are often imposed without regard to whether the owner or operator knew of, or was responsible for, the presence of such contamination, and the liability may be joint and several. The presence of hazardous substances also may result in use restrictions on impacted properties or result in liens on contaminated sites in favor of the government for damages it incurs to address contamination. We also may be liable for the costs of removal or remediation of hazardous substances or waste at disposal or treatment facilities if we arranged for disposal or treatment of hazardous substances at such facilities, whether or not we own such facility. Moreover, buildings and other improvements on our properties may contain asbestos-containing material or could have indoor air quality concerns (e.g., from airborne contaminants such as mold), which may subject us to costs, damages and other liabilities including abatement cleanup, personal injury, and property damage liabilities. The foregoing could adversely affect occupancy and our ability to develop, sell or borrow against any affected property and could require us to make significant unanticipated expenditures that would adversely impact our business, financial condition and results of operations.
 
We may be adversely affected by laws, regulations or other issues related to climate change.

If we become subject to laws or regulations related to climate change, our business, results of operations and financial condition could be impacted adversely. The federal government has enacted, and some of the states and localities in which we operate may enact certain climate change laws and regulations or have begun regulating carbon footprints and greenhouse gas emissions. Although these laws and regulations have not had any known material adverse effects on our business to date, they could result in substantial compliance costs, retrofit costs and construction costs, including monitoring and reporting costs and capital expenditures for environmental control facilities and other new equipment. Furthermore, our reputation could be negatively affected if we violate climate change laws or regulations. We cannot predict how future laws and regulations, or future interpretations of current laws and regulations, related to climate change will affect our business, results of operations and financial condition. Lastly, the potential physical impacts of climate change on our operations are highly uncertain, and would be particular to the geographic circumstances in areas in which we operate. These may include changes in rainfall and storm patterns and intensities, water shortages, changing sea levels and changing temperatures. These impacts may adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.



15



Compliance or failure to comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act could result in substantial costs.

Our properties must comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act ("ADA") and any equivalent state or local laws, to the extent that our properties are public accommodations as defined under such laws. Under the ADA, all public accommodations must meet federal requirements related to access and use by disabled persons. If one or more of our properties is not in compliance with the ADA or any equivalent state or local laws, then we may be required to incur additional costs to bring the property into compliance with the ADA or similar state or local laws. Noncompliance with the ADA could also result in imposition of fines or an award of damages to private litigants. We cannot predict the ultimate amount of the cost of compliance with the ADA or any equivalent state or local laws. If we incur substantial costs to comply with the ADA or any equivalent state or local laws, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.

Our third-party management and leasing agreements are subject to the risk of termination and non-renewal.

Our third-party management and leasing agreements are subject to the risk of possible termination under certain circumstances, including our failure to perform as required under these agreements and to the risk of non-renewal by the property owner upon expiration or renewal on terms less favorable to us than the current terms. If management and leasing agreements are terminated, or are not renewed upon expiration, our expected revenues will decrease and our financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.

Our third-party property management business may subject us to certain liabilities.

We may hire and supervise third-party contractors to provide construction, engineering and various other services for properties we are managing on behalf of third-party clients. Depending upon (1) the terms of our contracts with third-party clients, which, for example, may place us in the position of a principal rather than an agent, or (2) the responsibilities we assume or are legally deemed to have assumed in the course of a client engagement (whether or not memorialized in a contract), we may be subjected to, or become liable for, claims for construction defects, negligent performance of work or other similar actions by third parties we do not control. Adverse outcomes of property management disputes or litigation could negatively impact our business, financial condition and results of operations, particularly if we have not limited in our contracts the extent of damages to which we may be liable for the consequences of our actions, or if our liabilities exceed the amounts of the commercial third-party insurance that we carry. Moreover, our clients may seek to hold us accountable for the actions of contractors because of our role as property manager even if we have technically disclaimed liability as a legal matter, in which case we may find it commercially prudent to participate in a financial settlement for purposes of preserving the client relationship.

Acting as a principal may also mean that we pay a contractor before we have been reimbursed by the client, which exposes us to additional risks of collection from the client in the event of an intervening bankruptcy or insolvency of the client. The reverse can occur as well, where a contractor we have paid files bankruptcy or commits fraud with the funds before completing a project for which we have paid it in part or in full. As part of our project management business, we are responsible for managing the various other contractors required for a project, including general contractors, in order to ensure that the cost of a project does not exceed the contract price and that the project is completed on time. In the event that one of the other contractors on the project does not or cannot perform as a result of bankruptcy or for some other reason, we may be responsible for any cost overruns as well as the consequences for late delivery. In the event that for whatever reason we have not accurately estimated our own costs of providing services under warranted or guaranteed cost contracts, we may lose money on such contracts until such time as we can legally terminate them.
 
We are required to maintain certain licenses to conduct our third-party property management business.

The brokerage of real estate leasing transactions and property management require us to maintain licenses in various jurisdictions in which we operate and to comply with particular regulations. If we fail to maintain our licenses or conduct regulated activities without a license or in contravention of applicable regulations, we may be required to pay fines or return commissions. As a licensed real estate service provider and advisor in various jurisdictions, we may be subject to various due diligence, disclosure, standard-of-care, anti-money laundering and other obligations in the jurisdictions in which we operate. Failure to fulfill these obligations could subject us to litigation from parties who leased properties we brokered or managed. We could become subject to claims by participants in real estate sales or other services claiming that we did not fulfill our obligations as a service provider or broker. This may include claims with respect to conflicts of interest where we are acting, or are perceived to be acting, for two or more clients with potentially contrary interests.





16



Uninsured and underinsured losses may adversely affect our operations.

We, or in certain instances, customers at our properties, carry comprehensive commercial general liability, fire, extended coverage, business interruption, rental loss coverage, environmental, and umbrella liability coverage on all of our properties. We also carry wind and flood coverage on properties in areas where we believe such coverage is warranted, in each case with limits of liability that we deem adequate. Similarly, we are insured against the risk of direct physical damage in amounts we believe to be adequate to reimburse us, on a replacement cost basis, for costs incurred to repair or rebuild each property, including loss of rental income during the reconstruction period. We believe that our insurance coverage contains policy specifications and insured limits that are customary for similar properties, business activities and markets, and we believe our properties are adequately insured. However, we may be subject to certain types of losses that are generally uninsured losses, including, but not limited to losses caused by riots, war or acts of God. In the event of substantial property loss, the insurance coverage may not be sufficient to pay the full current market value or current replacement cost of the property. In the event of an uninsured loss, we could lose some or all of our capital investment, cash flow and anticipated profits related to one or more properties. Inflation, changes in building codes and ordinances, environmental considerations and other factors also might make it not feasible to use insurance proceeds to replace a property after it has been damaged or destroyed. Under such circumstances, the insurance proceeds we receive might not be adequate to restore our economic position with respect to such property.

We may be subject to litigation, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition.

We may be subject to litigation, including claims relating to our assets and operations that are otherwise in the ordinary course of business. Some of these claims may result in significant defense costs and potentially significant judgments against us, some of which we may not be insured against. We generally intend to vigorously defend ourselves against such claims. However, we cannot be certain of the ultimate outcomes of claims that may be asserted. Resolution of these types of matters against us may result in our having to pay significant fines, judgments, or settlements, which, if uninsured, or if the fines, judgments, and settlements exceed insured levels, would adversely impact our earnings and cash flows, thereby impacting our ability to service debt and make quarterly distributions to our stockholders. Certain litigation or the resolution of certain litigation may affect the availability or cost of some of our insurance coverage, which could adversely impact our financial condition and results of operations, expose us to increased risks that would be uninsured, and/or adversely impact our ability to attract officers and directors.

If we are unable to satisfy the regulatory requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, or if our disclosure controls or internal control over financial reporting is not effective, investors could lose confidence in our reported financial information, which could adversely affect the perception of our business and the trading price of our common stock.

The design and effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting may not prevent all errors, misstatements or misrepresentations. Although management will continue to review the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting, there can be no guarantee that our internal control over financial reporting will be effective in accomplishing all control objectives all of the time. Deficiencies, including any material weakness, in our internal control over financial reporting which may occur in the future could result in misstatements of our results of operations, restatements of our financial statements, a decline in the trading price of our common stock, or otherwise materially adversely affect our business, reputation, results of operations, financial condition, or liquidity.
 
We depend on key personnel, each of whom would be difficult to replace.

Our continued success depends to a significant degree upon the continued contributions of certain key personnel including, but not limited to, James R. Heistand, our President and Chief Executive Officer, who would be difficult to replace. Although we entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Heistand in July 2013 that provides for a three-year term, we cannot provide any assurance that he will remain employed by us. Our ability to retain Mr. Heistand, or to attract a suitable replacement should he leave, is dependent on the competitive nature of the employment market. The loss of services of Mr. Heistand could adversely affect our results of operations and slow our future growth.

We have a significant amount of indebtedness and may need to incur more in the future.

As of December 31, 2014, we had approximately $1.8 billion of total outstanding indebtedness. In addition, in connection with executing our business strategies going forward, we expect to continue to evaluate the possibility of acquiring additional properties and making strategic investments, and we may elect to finance these endeavors by incurring additional indebtedness. The amount of such indebtedness could have material adverse consequences for us, including:




17



hindering our ability to adjust to changing market, industry or economic conditions;

limiting our ability to access the capital markets to raise additional equity or refinance maturing debt on favorable terms or to fund acquisitions or emerging businesses;

limiting the amount of free cash flow available for future operations, acquisitions, dividends, stock repurchases or other uses;

making us more vulnerable to economic or industry downturns, including interest rate increases; and

placing us at a competitive disadvantage compared to less leveraged competitors.

Moreover, to respond to competitive challenges, we may be required to raise substantial additional capital to execute our business strategy. Our ability to arrange additional financing will depend on, among other factors, our financial position and performance, as well as prevailing market conditions and other factors beyond our control. If we are able to obtain additional financing, our credit ratings could be further adversely affected, which could further raise our borrowing costs and further limit its future access to capital and its ability to satisfy its obligations under its indebtedness.

We have existing debt and refinancing risks that could affect our cost of operations.

We currently have both fixed and variable rate indebtedness and may incur additional indebtedness in the future, including borrowings under our credit facilities, to finance possible acquisitions and for general corporate purposes. As a result, we are and expect to be subject to the risks normally associated with debt financing including:

that interest rates may rise;

that our cash flow will be insufficient to make required payments of principal and interest;

that we will be unable to refinance some or all of our debt;

that any refinancing will not be on terms as favorable as those of our existing debt;

that required payments on mortgages and on our other debt are not reduced if the economic performance of any property declines;

that debt service obligations will reduce funds available for distribution to our stockholders;

that any default on our debt, due to noncompliance with financial covenants or otherwise, could result in acceleration of those obligations;

that we may be unable to refinance or repay the debt as it becomes due; and

that if our degree of leverage is viewed unfavorably by lenders or potential joint venture partners, it could affect our ability to obtain additional financing.

We may not be able to refinance or repay debt as it becomes due which may force us to refinance or to incur additional indebtedness at higher rates and additional cost or, in the extreme case, to sell assets or seek protection from our creditors under applicable law.

A lack of any limitation on our debt could result in our becoming more highly leveraged.

Our governing documents do not limit the amount of indebtedness we may incur. Accordingly, our board of directors may incur additional debt and would do so, for example, if it were necessary to maintain our status as a REIT. We might become more highly leveraged as a result, and our financial condition, results of operations and cash available for distribution to stockholders might be negatively affected, and the risk of default on our indebtedness could increase.






18



The cost and terms of mortgage financings may render the sale or financing of a property difficult or unattractive.

The sale of a property subject to a mortgage loan may trigger pre-payment penalties, yield maintenance payments or make-whole payments to the lender, which would reduce the amount of gain or increase our loss on the sale of a property and could make the sale of a property less likely. Certain of our mortgage loans will have significant outstanding principal balances on their maturity dates, commonly known as "balloon payments." There is no assurance that we will be able to refinance such balloon payments upon the maturity of the loans, which may force disposition of properties on disadvantageous terms or require replacement with debt with higher interest rates, either of which would have an adverse impact on our financial condition and results of operations. Additionally, at the time a loan matures, the property may be worth less than the loan amount and, as a result, we may determine not to refinance the loan and permit foreclosure, generating a loss.

Financial covenants could adversely affect our ability to conduct our business.

Our senior unsecured revolving credit facility and unsecured term loans contain restrictions on the amount of debt we may incur and other restrictions and requirements on our operations. These restrictions, as well as any additional restrictions to which we may become subject to in connection with additional financings or refinancings, could restrict our ability to pursue business initiatives, effect certain transactions or make other changes to our business that may otherwise be beneficial to us, which could adversely affect our results of operations. In addition, violations of these covenants could cause declaration of defaults under and acceleration of any related indebtedness, which would result in adverse consequences to our financial condition. Our senior unsecured revolving credit facility and unsecured term loans also contain cross-default provisions that give the lenders the right to declare a default if we are in default under other loans in excess of certain amounts. In the event of a default, we may be required to repay such debt with capital from other sources, which may not be available to us on attractive terms, or at all, which would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Mortgage debt obligations expose us to the possibility of foreclosure, which could result in the loss of our investment in a property or group of properties subject to mortgage debt.
Incurring mortgage and other secured debt obligations increases our risk of property losses because defaults on indebtedness secured by properties may result in foreclosure actions initiated by lenders and ultimately our loss of the property securing any loans for which we are in default. Any foreclosure on a mortgaged property or group of properties could adversely affect the overall value of our portfolio of properties (or portions thereof). For tax purposes, a foreclosure of any of our properties that is subject to a nonrecourse mortgage loan generally would be treated as a sale of the property for a purchase price equal to the outstanding balance of the debt secured by the mortgage. If the outstanding balance of the debt secured by the mortgage exceeds our tax basis in the property, we would recognize taxable income on foreclosure, but would not receive any cash proceeds, which could hinder our ability to satisfy the distribution requirements applicable to REITs under the Code. Foreclosures could also trigger our tax indemnification obligations under the terms of our agreements with certain continuing investors with respect to sales of certain properties.

Failure to hedge effectively against interest rate changes may adversely affect results of operations.

The interest rate hedge instruments we use to manage some of our exposure to interest rate volatility involve risk, such as the risk that counterparties may fail to honor their obligations under these arrangements. Failure to hedge effectively against interest rate changes may adversely affect our results of operations.

We depend on external sources of capital that are outside of our control, which may affect our ability to pursue strategic opportunities, refinance or repay our indebtedness and make distributions to our stockholders.

In order to qualify as a REIT, we generally must distribute annually at least 90% of our REIT taxable income, subject to certain adjustments and excluding any net capital gain. Because of these distribution requirements, it is not likely that we will be able to fund all future capital needs from income from operations. As a result, when we engage in the development or acquisition of new properties or expansion or redevelopment of existing properties, we will continue to rely on third-party sources of capital, including lines of credit, collateralized or unsecured debt (both construction financing and permanent debt), and equity issuances. Our access to third-party sources of capital depends on a number of factors, including general market conditions, the market's view of the quality of our assets, the market's perception of our growth potential, our current debt levels and our current and expected future earnings. There can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain the financing necessary to fund our current or new developments or project expansions or our acquisition activities on terms favorable to us or at all. If we are unable to obtain a sufficient level of third-party financing to fund our capital needs, our results of operations, financial condition and ability to make distributions to our stockholders may be adversely affected.

We may amend our investment strategy and business policies without your approval.

Our board of directors may change our investment strategy or any of our guidelines, financing strategy or leverage policies with respect to investments, acquisitions, growth, operations, indebtedness, capitalization and distributions at any time without the consent of our stockholders, which could result in an investment portfolio with a different risk profile. A change in our strategy may increase our exposure to interest rate risk, default risk and real estate market fluctuations. These changes could adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations, the market price of our common stock and our ability to make distributions to our stockholders.

Our ability to use our net operating loss carryforwards is limited.

As of December 31, 2014, we had net operating losses, ("NOLs"), of approximately $166.4 million for U.S. federal income tax purposes (not including NOLs acquired from the Mergers). These NOLs are subject to varying expirations between 2018 and 2032. In 2012, we have undergone an ownership change for purposes of Section 382 of the Code. An ownership change is, as a general matter, triggered by sales or acquisitions of our stock in excess of 50% on a cumulative basis during a three-year period by persons owning five percent or more of our total equity value. As a result of this ownership change, and subject to certain exceptions, our NOLs in existence at that time is subject to a gross annual limitation of $15.4 million.  As of the year ended December 31, 2014, we generally may utilize approximately $31.6 million of our NOLs carryforwards derived prior to the ownership change to reduce our REIT taxable income (and therefore our distribution requirement) for a given taxable year. In addition, if we experience an additional ownership change during any subsequent three-year period, our future ability to utilize our NOLs may become further limited.

In addition, our ability to use NOLs of TPGI, totaling $88.4 million, to which we succeeded as a result of the merger of TPGI with and into Parkway Properties, Inc. on December 19, 2013 (the "Parent Merger") is limited.

The Parent Merger carries certain tax risks.

The parties to the Parent Merger intended that the Parent Merger be treated as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code. If the Parent Merger were to have failed to qualify as a reorganization, then, among other things, TPGI would be treated as having sold, in a taxable transaction, all of its assets to us, with the result that TPGI would have generally recognized gain or loss on the deemed transfer of its assets to us and we, as successor to TPGI, would have assumed a significant current tax liability. The balance of this discussion assumes that the Parent Merger, as intended by the parties, qualified as a reorganization.

Because TPGI was taxable as a regular C corporation and we acquired its appreciated assets in a transaction in which the adjusted tax basis of the assets in our hands is determined by reference to the adjusted tax basis of the assets in the hands of TPGI prior to the Parent Merger, we will be subject to corporate income tax on the "built-in gain" with respect to TPGI’s assets at the time of the Parent Merger to the extent that we dispose of those assets in a taxable transaction within ten years following the Parent Merger (which occurred on December 19, 2013). This built-in gain is measured by the difference between the value of the TPGI assets at the time of the Parent Merger and the adjusted basis in those assets. Our ability to use historic net operating loss carryovers of TPGI to offset any built-in gain subject to this tax is limited.

Furthermore, in order to qualify as a REIT, we must not have, at the end of any taxable year, any earnings and profits accumulated in a non-REIT year. In connection with the Parent Merger, we would have succeeded to any earnings and profits accumulated by TPGI for taxable periods preceding the Parent Merger. In connection with the closing of the Mergers, we received a report, prepared by TPGI’s accountants, to the effect that TPGI would not have any earnings and profits accumulated in a non-REIT year to which we would succeed as a result of the Parent Merger. If we are (or were) treated as having, as a result of the Parent Merger or otherwise, any earnings and profits accumulated in any non-REIT year, in order to maintain our qualification as a REIT, we may have to pay a special dividend and/or employ applicable deficiency dividend procedures to eliminate such earnings and profits. If we need to make a special dividend or pay a deficiency dividend and do not otherwise have cash on hand to do so, we may need to (1) sell assets in adverse market conditions, (2) borrow on unfavorable terms, (3) distribute amounts otherwise intended to be used for other purposes, or (4) make a taxable distribution of common stock. These alternatives could increase our costs or reduce our equity. In addition, we may be required to pay interest based on the amount of any such deficiency dividends. If we were unable to utilize any applicable deficiency dividend procedures, we could lose our REIT status.




20



Moreover, as TPGI was not a REIT but rather a regular C corporation its income, assets, and operations were not necessarily consistent with the requirements applicable to REITs. We took certain steps with respect to the historic assets and operations of TPGI so as to permit us to continue to qualify as a REIT following the Mergers. If we were unable to otherwise identify and restructure in a timely manner assets or operations of TPGI that were inconsistent with our status as a REIT, we may be unable to satisfy one or more of the requirements applicable to REITs.

In addition to the foregoing, as a result of the Parent Merger, we remain liable for unpaid taxes of TPGI (if any) for any periods through the Parent Merger.

Risks Related to Our Status as a REIT

Loss of our tax status as a real estate investment trust would have significant adverse consequences to us and the value of our securities.

We believe that we qualify for taxation as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and we plan to operate so that we can continue to meet the requirements for taxation as a REIT. To qualify as a REIT we must satisfy numerous requirements (some on an annual and quarterly basis) established under the highly technical and complex provisions of the Code applicable to REITs, which include:

maintaining ownership of specified minimum levels of real estate related assets;

generating specified minimum levels of real estate related income;

maintaining certain diversity of ownership requirements with respect to our shares; and

distributing at least 90% of our taxable income on an annual basis.

The distribution requirement noted above could adversely affect our ability to use earnings for improvements or acquisitions because funds distributed to stockholders will not be available for capital improvements to existing properties or for acquiring additional properties.

Only limited judicial and administrative interpretations exist of the REIT rules. In addition, qualification as a REIT involves the determination of various factual matters and circumstances not entirely within our control.

If we fail to qualify as a REIT, we will be subject to U.S. federal income tax (including any applicable alternative minimum tax) on our taxable income at regular corporate rates without any deduction for dividends paid. In addition, unless entitled to relief under certain statutory provisions, we will be disqualified from treatment as a REIT for the four taxable years following the year during which we failed to qualify. This treatment would reduce net earnings available for investment or distribution to stockholders because of the additional tax liability for the year or years involved. In addition, we would no longer be required to make distributions to our stockholders. To the extent that distributions to stockholders had been made based on our qualifying as a REIT, we might be required to borrow funds or to liquidate certain of our investments to pay the applicable tax. As a REIT, we have been and will continue to be subject to certain U.S. federal, state and local taxes on our income and property.

If our operating partnership failed to qualify as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes, we would cease to qualify as a REIT and suffer other adverse consequences.

We believe that our operating partnership is properly treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes. As a partnership, our operating partnership is not subject to U.S. federal income tax on its income. Instead, each of its partners, including us, is allocated, and may be required to pay tax with respect to, its share of our operating partnership's income. We cannot assure you, however, that the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS") will not challenge the status of our operating partnership or any other subsidiary partnership in which we own an interest as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes, or that a court would not sustain such a challenge. If the IRS were successful in treating our operating partnership or any such other subsidiary partnership as an entity taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes, we would fail to meet the gross income tests and certain of the asset tests applicable to REITs and, accordingly, we would likely cease to qualify as a REIT. Also, the failure of our operating partnership or any subsidiary partnerships to qualify as a partnership would cause it to become subject to federal and state corporate income tax, which could reduce significantly the amount of cash available for debt service and for distribution to its partners, including us.


21



REIT distribution requirements could adversely affect our ability to execute our business plan or cause us to finance our needs during unfavorable market conditions.

In order to qualify as a REIT, we generally must distribute annually at least 90% of our REIT taxable income, subject to certain adjustments and excluding any net capital gain, in order for U.S. federal corporate income tax not to apply to earnings that we distribute. To the extent that we satisfy this distribution requirement but distribute less than 100% of our taxable income, we will be subject to U.S. federal corporate income tax on our undistributed taxable income. In addition, we will be subject to a 4% nondeductible excise tax if the actual amount that we pay out to our stockholders in a calendar year is less than a minimum amount specified under U.S. federal tax laws. We intend to make distributions to our stockholders to comply with the REIT requirements of the Code.

From time to time, we may generate taxable income greater than our income for financial reporting purposes prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). This may occur, for instance, because of differences in timing between the recognition of taxable income and the actual receipt of cash or the effects of non-deductible capital expenditures, or the creation of reserve required debt or amortization payments. As a result, we may find it difficult or impossible to meet distribution requirements in certain circumstances. The requirement to distribute a substantial portion of our taxable income could cause us to (1) sell assets in adverse market conditions, (2) borrow on unfavorable terms, (3) distribute amounts that would otherwise be invested in future acquisitions, capital expenditures or repayment of debt or (4) make a taxable distribution of our common stock as part of a distribution in which stockholders may elect to receive our common stock or (subject to a limit measured as a percentage of the total distribution) cash, in order to comply with REIT requirements. These alternatives could increase our costs or reduce our equity. Thus, compliance with the REIT requirements may hinder our ability to grow, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Even if we qualify as a REIT, we may face other tax liabilities that reduce our cash flow.

Even if we qualify for taxation as a REIT, we may be subject to certain U.S. federal, state and local taxes on our income, property or net worth, including taxes on any undistributed income, tax on income from some activities conducted as a result of a foreclosure, and state or local income, property and transfer taxes. In addition, we could, in certain circumstances, be required to pay an excise or penalty tax (which could be significant in amount) in order to utilize one or more relief provisions under the Code to maintain our qualification as a REIT. Any of these taxes would decrease cash available for the payment of our debt obligations and distributions to stockholders. Our taxable REIT subsidiaries (each a "TRS") generally will be subject to U.S. federal corporate income tax on their net taxable income.

Complying with REIT requirements may limit our ability to hedge effectively and may cause us to incur tax liabilities.

The REIT provisions of the Code may limit our ability to hedge our assets and operations. Under these provisions, income that we generate from transactions intended to hedge our interest rate and certain types of foreign currency risk generally will be excluded from gross income for purposes of the 75% and 95% gross income tests applicable to REITs if the instrument hedges interest rate or foreign currency risk on liabilities used to carry or acquire real estate assets or certain other types of foreign currency risk, and such instrument is properly identified. Income from hedging transactions that do not meet these requirements will generally constitute non-qualifying income for purposes of both the REIT 75% and 95% gross income tests. As a result of these rules, we may have to limit our use of hedging techniques that might otherwise be advantageous or implement those hedges through a TRS. This could increase the cost of our hedging activities because our TRS would be subject to tax on gains or expose us to greater risks associated with changes in interest rates than we would otherwise want to bear. In addition, losses in our TRS will generally not provide any tax benefit, except for being carried forward against future taxable income in the TRS.

Complying with REIT requirements may force us to forgo and/or liquidate otherwise attractive investment opportunities.

To qualify as a REIT, we must ensure that we meet the REIT gross income tests annually and that at the end of each calendar quarter, at least 75% of the value of our assets consists of cash, cash items, government securities and qualified real estate assets. The remainder of our investment in securities (other than government securities and qualified real estate assets) generally cannot include more than 10% of the outstanding voting securities of any one issuer or more than 10% of the total value of the outstanding securities of any one issuer. In addition, in general, no more than 5% of the value of our assets (other than government securities and qualified real estate assets) can consist of the securities of any one issuer, and no more than 25% of the value of our total assets can be represented by securities of one or more TRSs. If we fail to comply with these requirements at the end of any calendar quarter, we must correct the failure within 30 days after the end of the calendar quarter or qualify for certain statutory relief provisions to avoid losing our REIT qualification and suffering adverse tax consequences. As a result, we may be required to liquidate from our portfolio or contribute to a TRS otherwise attractive investments in order to maintain our qualification as a REIT. These actions could have the effect of reducing our income and amounts available for distribution to our stockholders. In

22



addition, we may be unable to pursue investments that would otherwise be advantageous to us in order to satisfy the source of income or asset diversification requirements for qualifying as a REIT. Thus, compliance with the REIT requirements may hinder our ability to make, and, in certain cases, maintain ownership of, certain attractive investments.

The requirements necessary to maintain our REIT status limit our ability to earn fee income at the REIT level, which causes us to conduct fee-generating activities through a TRS.

The REIT provisions of the Code limit our ability to earn additional management fee and other fee income from joint ventures and third parties. Our aggregate gross income from fees and certain other non-qualifying sources cannot exceed 5% of our annual gross income. As a result, our ability to increase the amount of fee income we earn at the REIT level is limited and, therefore, we conduct fee-generating activities through a TRS. Any fee income we earn through a TRS is subject to U.S. federal, state, and local income tax at regular corporate rates, which reduces our cash available for distribution to stockholders.

Our ability to own stock and securities of TRSs is limited and our transactions with our TRSs will cause us to be subject to a 100% penalty tax on certain income or deductions if those transactions are not conducted on arm's length terms.

A REIT may own up to 100% of the stock of one or more TRSs. A TRS may hold assets and earn income that would not be qualifying assets or income if held or earned directly by a REIT. Both the subsidiary and the REIT must jointly elect to treat the subsidiary as a TRS. A corporation of which a TRS directly or indirectly owns more than 35% of the voting power or value of the stock will automatically be treated as a TRS. Overall, no more than 25% of the value of a REIT's assets may consist of stock or securities of one or more TRSs. In addition, the rules applicable to TRSs limit the deductibility of interest paid or accrued by a TRS to its parent REIT to assure that the TRS is subject to an appropriate level of corporate taxation. The rules also impose a 100% excise tax on certain transactions involving a TRS that are not conducted on an arm's length basis.

Our TRS will pay U.S. federal, state and local income tax on its taxable income. The after-tax net income of our TRSs will be available for distribution to us but generally is not required to be distributed. We anticipate that the aggregate value of the stock and securities of our TRS will be less than 25% of the value of our total assets (including the stock and securities of our TRS). Furthermore, we will monitor the value of our respective investments in our TRS for the purpose of ensuring compliance with the ownership limitations applicable to TRSs. We will scrutinize all of our transactions involving our TRS to ensure that they are entered into on arm's length terms to avoid incurring the 100% excise tax described above. There can be no assurance, however, that we will be able to comply with the 25% limitation discussed above or avoid application of the 100% excise tax discussed above.

Dividends payable by REITs do not qualify for the reduced tax rates available for some dividends.

The maximum tax rate applicable to income from "qualified dividends" payable to U.S. stockholders that are individuals, trusts and estates is 20%. Dividends payable by REITs, however, generally are not eligible for the reduced rates and will continue to be subject to tax at rates applicable to ordinary income. Although this does not adversely affect the taxation of REITs or dividends payable by REITs, the more favorable rates applicable to regular corporate qualified dividends could cause investors who are individuals, trusts and estates to perceive investments in REITs to be relatively less attractive than investments in the shares of non-REIT corporations that pay dividends, which could adversely affect the value of the stock of REITs, including our stock.

The tax imposed on REITs engaging in "prohibited transactions" may limit our ability to engage in transactions that would be treated as sales for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

A REIT's net income from prohibited transactions is subject to a 100% penalty tax. In general, prohibited transactions are sales or other dispositions of property, other than foreclosure property, held primarily for sale to customers in the ordinary course of business. Although we do not intend to hold any properties that would be characterized as held for sale to customers in the ordinary course of our business, unless a sale or disposition qualifies under certain statutory safe harbors, such characterization is a factual determination and no guarantee can be given that the IRS would agree with our characterization of our properties or that we will be able to make use of the otherwise available safe harbors.

The ability of our board of directors to revoke our REIT election without stockholder approval may cause adverse consequences to our stockholders.
Our charter provides that the board of directors may revoke or otherwise terminate our REIT election, without the approval of our stockholders, if the board determines that it is no longer in our best interest to continue to qualify as a REIT. If we cease to qualify as a REIT, we would become subject to U.S. federal income tax on our net taxable income and we generally would no

23



longer be required to distribute any of our net taxable income to our stockholders, which may have adverse consequences on our total return to our stockholders.

There is a risk of changes in the tax law applicable to REITs.

The Internal Revenue Service, the United States Treasury Department and Congress frequently review U.S. federal income tax legislation, regulations and other guidance. We cannot predict whether, when or to what extent new U.S. federal tax laws, regulations, interpretations or rulings will be adopted. Any legislative action may prospectively or retroactively modify our tax treatment and, therefore, may adversely affect taxation of us and/or our investors.

Risks Associated with Our Stock

Limitations on the ownership of our common stock may preclude the acquisition or change of control of our Company.

Certain provisions contained in our charter and bylaws and certain provisions of Maryland law may have the effect of discouraging a third party from making an acquisition proposal for us and may thereby inhibit a change of control. Provisions of our charter are designed to assist us in maintaining our qualification as a REIT under the Code by preventing concentrated ownership of our capital stock that might jeopardize REIT qualification. Among other things, these provisions provide that, if a transfer of our stock or a change in our capital structure would result in (1) any person (as defined in the charter) directly or indirectly acquiring beneficial or constructive ownership of more than 9.8% (in value or in number, whichever is more restrictive) of our outstanding equity stock excluding Excess Stock, (2) our outstanding shares being owned by fewer than 100 persons, or (3) our being "closely held" within the meaning of Section 856(h) of the Code, then:

any proposed transfer will be void from the beginning and we will not recognize such transfer;

we may institute legal proceedings to enjoin such transfer;

we will have the right to redeem the shares proposed to be transferred; and/or

the shares proposed to be transferred will be automatically converted into and exchanged for shares of a separate class of stock, the Excess Stock.

Excess Stock has no dividend or voting rights but holders of Excess Stock do have certain rights in the event of our liquidation, dissolution or winding up. Our charter provides that we will hold the Excess Stock as trustee for the person or persons to whom the shares are ultimately transferred, until the time that the shares are retransferred to a person or persons in whose hands the shares would not be Excess Stock and certain price-related restrictions are satisfied. These provisions may have an anti-takeover effect by discouraging tender offers or purchases of large blocks of stock, thereby limiting the opportunity for stockholders to receive a premium for their shares over then-prevailing market prices. Under the terms of our charter, our Board of Directors has the authority to waive these ownership restrictions.
 
Furthermore, under our charter, our Board of Directors has the authority to classify and reclassify any of our unissued shares of capital stock into shares of capital stock with such preferences, rights, powers and restrictions as the Board of Directors may determine. The authorization and issuance of a new class of capital stock could have the effect of delaying or preventing someone from taking control of us, even if a change in control were in our stockholders' best interests.

Maryland business statutes may limit the ability of a third party to acquire control of us.

Maryland law provides protection for Maryland corporations against unsolicited takeovers by limiting, among other things, the duties of the directors in unsolicited takeover situations. The duties of directors of Maryland corporations do not require them to (a) accept, recommend or respond to any proposal by a person seeking to acquire control of the corporation, (b) authorize the corporation to redeem any rights under, or modify or render inapplicable, any stockholder rights plan, (c) make a determination under the Maryland Business Combination Act, or (d) act or fail to act solely because of the effect of the act or failure to act may have on an acquisition or potential acquisition of control of the corporation or the amount or type of consideration that may be offered or paid to the stockholders in an acquisition. Moreover, under Maryland law the act of a director of a Maryland corporation relating to or affecting an acquisition or potential acquisition of control is not subject to any higher duty or greater scrutiny than is applied to any other act of a director. Maryland law also contains a statutory presumption that an act of a director of a Maryland corporation satisfies the applicable standards of conduct for directors under Maryland law.


24



The Maryland Business Combination Act provides that unless exempted, a Maryland corporation may not engage in business combinations, including mergers, dispositions of ten percent or more of its assets, certain issuances of shares of stock and other specified transactions, with an "interested stockholder" or an affiliate of an interested stockholder for five years after the most recent date on which the interested stockholder became an interested stockholder, and thereafter unless specified criteria are met. An interested stockholder is generally a person owning or controlling, directly or indirectly, ten percent or more of the voting power of the outstanding stock of the Maryland corporation.

Market interest rates may have an effect on the value of our common stock.

One of the factors that will influence the price of our common stock will be the dividend yield on our common stock (as a percentage of the price of our common stock) relative to market interest rates. An increase in market interest rates, which are currently at low levels relative to historical rates, may lead prospective purchasers of our common stock to expect a higher dividend yield and higher interest rates would likely increase our borrowing costs and potentially decrease funds available for distribution. Thus, higher market interest rates could cause the market price of our common stock to decrease.

The number of shares of our common stock available for future issuance or sale could adversely affect the per share trading price of our common stock and may be dilutive to current stockholders.

Our charter authorizes our Board of Directors to, among other things, issue additional shares of capital stock without stockholder approval. We cannot predict whether future issuances or sales of shares of our common stock or the availability of shares for resale in the open market will decrease the per share trading price per share of our common stock. The issuance of substantial numbers of shares of our common stock in the public market, or upon exchange of common units of limited partnership interests in our operating partnership, or the perception that such issuances might occur, could adversely affect the per share trading price of our common stock. In addition, any such issuance could dilute our existing stockholders' interests in our company. The per share trading price of our common stock may decline significantly upon the sale of shares of our common stock pursuant to registration rights granted to the TPG Entities in connection with TPG Pantera's investment in us in May 2012. In particular, we have entered into a stockholders agreement with the TPG Entities pursuant to which the TPG Entities may at any time (1) make up to three demands for registration and (2) include the common stock they hold in any registration statement we file on account of any of our other security holders. The shares of common stock that may be registered on behalf of the TPG Entities, as described above, represent approximately 21% of our issued and outstanding common stock and of our issued and outstanding common stock and limited voting stock as of December 31, 2014. As a result, a substantial number of shares may be sold pursuant to the registration rights granted to the TPG Entities. The sale of such shares by the TPG Entities, or the perception that such a sale may occur, could materially and adversely affect the per share trading price of our common stock and could dilute our existing stockholders' interests in our company.

The exchange of common units for common stock, the issuance of our common stock or common units in connection with future property, portfolio or business acquisitions and other issuances of our common stock could have an adverse effect on the per share trading price of our common stock. In addition, we may issue shares of our common stock or grant options, deferred incentive share units, restricted shares or other equity-based awards exercisable for or convertible or exchangeable into shares of our common stock under the Parkway Properties, Inc. and Parkway Properties LP 2013 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan. Future issuances of shares of our common stock may be dilutive to existing stockholders.

Future offerings of debt securities, which would be senior to our common stock upon liquidation, or preferred equity securities which may be senior to our common stock for purposes of dividend distributions or upon liquidation, may adversely affect the per share trading price of our common stock.

In the future, we may attempt to increase our capital resources by making additional offerings of debt or equity securities (or causing our operating partnership to issue such debt securities), including medium-term notes, senior or subordinated notes and additional classes or series of preferred stock. Upon liquidation, holders of our debt securities and shares of preferred stock or preferred units of partnership interest in our operating partnership and lenders with respect to other borrowings will be entitled to receive our available assets prior to distribution to the holders of our common stock. Additionally, any convertible or exchangeable securities that we issue in the future may have rights, preferences and privileges more favorable than those of our common stock and may result in dilution to owners of our common stock. Other than the TPG Entities, holders of our common stock are not entitled to preemptive rights or other protections against dilution. Any shares of preferred stock or preferred units that we issue in the future could have a preference on liquidating distributions or a preference on dividend payments that could limit our ability pay dividends to the holders of our common stock. Because our decision to issue securities in any future offering will depend on market conditions and other factors beyond our control, we cannot predict or estimate the amount, timing or nature of our future offerings. Thus, our stockholders bear the risk of our future offerings reducing the per share trading price of our common stock and diluting their interest in us.

25



Our ability to pay dividends is limited by the requirements of Maryland law.

Our ability to pay dividends on our common stock is limited by the laws of Maryland. Under applicable Maryland law, a Maryland corporation generally may not make a distribution if, after giving effect to the distribution, the corporation would not be able to pay its debts as the debts become due in the usual course of business or the corporation's total assets would be less than the sum of its total liabilities plus, unless the corporation's charter permits otherwise, the amount that would be needed, if the corporation were dissolved at the time of the distribution, to satisfy the preferential rights upon dissolution of stockholders whose preferential rights are superior to those receiving the distribution. Accordingly, we generally may not make a distribution on our common stock if, after giving effect to the distribution, we would not be able to pay our debts as they become due in the usual course of business or our total assets would be less than the sum of our total liabilities plus, unless the terms of such class or series provide otherwise, the amount that would be needed to satisfy the preferential rights upon dissolution of the holders of shares of any class or series of preferred stock then outstanding, if any, with preferences upon dissolution senior to those of our common stock.

We may change our dividend policy.

Future distributions will be declared and paid at the discretion of our Board of Directors and the amount and timing of distributions will depend upon cash generated by operating activities, our financial condition, capital requirements, annual distribution requirements under the REIT provisions of the Code, and such other factors as our Board of Directors deems relevant. Our Board of Directors may change our dividend policy at any time, and there can be no assurance as to the manner in which future dividends will be paid or that the current dividend level will be maintained in future periods.

Our senior unsecured revolving credit facility and unsecured term loans prohibit us from repurchasing shares of our common stock and may limit our ability to pay dividends on our common stock.

Our senior unsecured revolving credit facility and unsecured term loans prohibit us from repurchasing any shares of our common stock, during the term of the senior unsecured revolving credit facility and the unsecured term loans. Under the credit agreement governing our senior unsecured revolving credit facility and unsecured term loans, our distributions may not exceed the greater of (1) 90% of our funds from operations, (2) the amount required for us to qualify and maintain our status as a REIT or (3) the amount required for us to avoid the imposition of income and excise taxes. As a result, if we do not generate sufficient funds from operations (as defined in the credit agreement) during the 12 months preceding any common stock dividend payment date, we would not be able to pay dividends to our common stockholders consistent with our past practice without causing a default under our credit agreement. In the event of such a default, we would be unable to borrow under our credit agreement, and any amounts we have borrowed under the credit agreement thereunder could become due and payable.

The price of our common stock may be volatile and may decline.

The market price of our common stock may fluctuate widely as a result of a number of factors, many of which are outside our control. In addition, the stock market is subject to fluctuations in share prices and trading volumes that affect the market prices of the shares of many companies. These fluctuations in the stock market may adversely affect the market price of our common stock. Among the factors that could affect the market price of our common stock are:

actual or anticipated quarterly fluctuations in our operating results and financial condition;

changes in revenues or earnings estimates or publication of research reports and recommendations by financial analysts or actions taken by rating agencies with respect to our securities or those of other REITs;

the ability of our customers to pay rent to us and meet their other obligations to us under current lease terms;

our ability to re-lease spaces as leases expire;

our ability to refinance our indebtedness as it matures;

any changes in our distribution policy;

any future issuances of equity securities;

strategic actions by us or our competitors, such as acquisitions or restructurings;


26



general market conditions and, in particular, developments related to market conditions for the real estate industry; and

domestic and international economic factors unrelated to our performance.

ITEM 2.                  Properties.

General

We operate and invest principally in quality office and parking properties in high growth submarkets in the Sunbelt region of the United States. At January 1, 2015, we owned or had an interest in 51 office and parking properties, including interests held through consolidated and unconsolidated joint ventures, comprising approximately 17.2 million square feet of office space located in eight states.

Office Buildings

We generally hold and operate our portfolio of office buildings for investment purposes. When our operating standards require necessary upgrades to recent acquisitions, we renovate, improve, or redevelop our office buildings. All such improvements are expected to be financed by cash flow from the portfolio of office and parking properties, capital expenditure escrow accounts or advances under our unsecured credit facilities.

Acquisitions

During the year ended December 31, 2014, we purchased ten wholly owned office and parking properties, one land parcel available for development, and one leasehold interest in land available for development as follows (in thousands):

(1) Purchase price consists of the contract price only and does not include closing costs, adjustments, proration or improvements made subsequent to purchase.
(2) On July 29, 2014, we purchased a $50 million first mortgage note secured by The Forum at West Paces. On August 19, 2014, we obtained the property through a deed in lieu of foreclosure.
(3) On November 17, 2014, we and CalSTRS terminated the Austin Joint Venture. Pursuant to the transaction agreements, we acquired CalSTRS' 60% interest in San Jacinto Center and One Congress Plaza, resulting in 100% ownership of these two assets, and transferred our 40% interest in Frost Bank Tower, 300 West 6th Street and One American Center to CalSTRS. In connection with this transaction, we received aggregate net proceeds of approximately $43.6 million from CalSTRS and recognized a $52.8 million gain in 2014.
(4) On December 30, 2014, we purchased approximately seven acres of a leasehold interest in land available for development located in the Westshore submarket of Tampa, Florida for a gross purchase price of $4.7 million. This land is adjacent to our Corporate Center I, II, III and IV assets at International Plaza.
(5) On December 31, 2014, we purchased approximately 6.5 acres of land available for development located in the Westshore submarket of Tampa, Florida for a gross purchase price of $4.8 million. This land is adjacent to our Corporate Center I, II, III and IV assets at International Plaza.

We generally financed these acquisitions with borrowings under our unsecured term loans and senior unsecured revolving credit facility, with proceeds from underwritten public offerings of shares of our common stock, and available cash.
 

27



We purchased these ten assets at an estimated weighted average capitalization rate of 5.30%.  We compute the estimated capitalization rate by dividing cash net operating income including rent concessions for the first year of ownership by the gross purchase price. We define cash net operating income as property specific revenues (rental revenue, property expense recoveries and other revenue) less property specific expenses (personnel, real estate taxes, insurance, repairs and maintenance and other property expenses).

Significant Properties

We have one property, CityWestPlace, whose book value exceeded ten percent of total assets at December 31, 2014 and whose gross rental revenue exceeds ten percent of consolidated gross revenues for the year ended December 31, 2014.

CityWestPlace is comprised of four office buildings in a 35.3 acre complex that range from six stories to 21 stories with an aggregate of 1.5 million rentable square feet located in Houston, Texas. We acquired CityWestPlace in December 2013 in conjunction with the Mergers. The buildings were constructed between 1993 and 2001. CityWestPlace's major customers include companies in technology, oil and gas and businesses that provide technology support, energy products, and dining. At January 1, 2015, the property was 96.4% occupied with an average effective annual rental rate per square foot of $35.97. One of the four buildings, CityWestPlace building II, was classified as a redevelopment asset as of January 1, 2015 and is not included in the 2015 occupancy percentage. The average occupancy and rental rate per square foot since we acquired ownership of CityWestPlace is as follows:

Real estate tax expense for the property for 2014 was $11.7 million.

We compete with a considerable number of other real estate companies, financial institutions, pension funds, private partnerships, individual investors and others seeking to acquire and lease office space in Houston, Texas. Principal factors of competition in our business are the quality of properties (including the design and condition of improvements), leasing terms (including rent and other charges and allowances for tenant improvements), attractiveness and convenience of location, the quality and breadth of customer services provided and reputation as an owner and operator of quality office and parking properties in the relevant market. Our ability to compete also depends on, among other factors, trends in the national and local economies, financial condition and operating results of current and prospective customers, availability and cost of capital, taxes and governmental regulations and legislation.

We did not have any material liens or encumbrances that exceeded 10% of total assets at December 31, 2014.

Subsequent Property Transactions

On January 8, 2015, we acquired One Buckhead Plaza, a 462,000 square foot office building located in the Buckhead submarket of Atlanta, Georgia, for a gross purchase price of $157.0 million. The 20-story office building also includes 36,000 square feet of ground floor retail space.

On January 15, 2015, we sold Raymond James Tower, a 337,000 square foot office property located in Memphis, Tennessee for a gross sale price of $19.3 million, providing $8.9 million in buyer credits, and recorded an impairment loss of $11.7 million during 2014 as a result of the pending sale. We also recorded a loss on early extinguishment of debt of $2.1 million in 2014 on the repayment of the Raymond James Tower mortgage principal balance of $7.9 million.

On February 4, 2015, we sold Honeywell, an office property located in Houston, Texas for a gross sale price of $28.0 million and will recognize a gain of approximately $14.3 million in the first quarter of 2015.

In order to qualify as a REIT, we are required to distribute dividends (other than capital gain dividends) to our stockholders in an amount at least equal to the sum of:

90% of our "REIT taxable income" (computed without regard to the dividends paid deduction and our net capital gain) and
90% of the net income (after tax), if any, from foreclosure property, minus
the sum of certain items of noncash income over 5% of our REIT taxable income.
We have made and intend to continue to make timely distributions sufficient to satisfy the annual distribution requirements described above. It is possible, however, that we, from time to time, may not have sufficient cash or liquid assets to meet the distribution requirements. This may occur for instance, because of differences in timing between the recognition of taxable income and the actual receipt of cash or the effects of non-deductible capital expenditures, or the creation of reserve required debt or amortization payments. In the event that such timing differences occur, in order to meet the distribution requirements, we may arrange for short term, or possibly long term, borrowing to permit the payment of required dividends. If the amount of nondeductible expenses exceeds noncash deductions, we may among other things, refinance our indebtedness to reduce principal payments and may borrow funds for capital expenditures.
Under the agreement governing our senior unsecured revolving credit facility and unsecured term loans, we are permitted to make distributions to our stockholders not to exceed the greater of (1) 90% of our Funds From Operations (as defined in such agreements) and (2) the amount required for us to maintain our status as a REIT and avoid income and excise taxes, provided that no default or event of default exists. If certain defaults or events of default exist, we may only make distributions sufficient to maintain our status as a REIT. However, we may not make any distributions if any event of default resulting from nonpayment or bankruptcy exists, or if as a result of the occurrence of any other event of default any of the obligations under the agreements have been accelerated.

ITEM 7.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Overview    

We are a fully integrated, self-administered and self-managed real estate investment trust ("REIT") specializing in the acquisition, ownership and management of quality office and parking properties in high-growth submarkets in the Sunbelt region of the United States.  At January 1, 2015, we owned or had an interest in a portfolio of 51 office and parking properties located in eight states with an aggregate of approximately 17.2 million square feet of leasable space. We offer fee-based real estate services through our wholly owned subsidiaries, which in total managed and/or leased approximately 6.0 million square feet for third-party property owners at January 1, 2015.  Unless otherwise indicated, all references to square feet represent net rentable area.

Business Objective and Operating Strategies

Our business objective is to maximize long-term stockholder value by generating sustainable cash flow growth and increasing the long-term value of our real estate assets through operations, acquisitions and capital recycling, while maintaining a conservative and flexible balance sheet. We intend to achieve this objective by executing on the following business and growth strategies:
Create Value as the Leading Owner of Quality Assets in Core Submarkets. Our investment strategy is to pursue attractive returns by focusing primarily on owning high-quality office buildings and portfolios that are well-located and competitively positioned within central business district and urban infill locations within our core submarkets in the Sunbelt region of the United States. In these submarkets, we seek to maintain a portfolio that consists of core, core-plus, and value-add investment opportunities. Further, we intend to pursue an efficient capital allocation strategy that maximizes the returns on our invested capital. This may include selectively disposing of properties when we believe returns have been maximized and redeploying capital into acquisitions or other opportunities.
Maximize Cash Flow by Continuing to Enhance the Operating Performance of Each Property.  We provide property management and leasing services to our portfolio, actively managing our properties and leveraging our customer relationships to improve operating performance, maximize long-term cash flow and enhance stockholder value. We seek to attain a favorable customer retention rate by providing outstanding property management and customer service programs responsive to the varying needs of our diverse customer base. We also employ a judicious prioritization of capital projects to focus on projects that enhance the value of our property through increased rental rates, occupancy, service delivery, or enhanced reversion value.
Realize Leasing and Operational Efficiencies and Gain Local Advantage.  We concentrate our real estate portfolio in submarkets where we believe that we can maximize market penetration by accumulating a critical mass of properties and thereby enhance operating efficiencies. We believe that strengthening our local presence and leveraging our extensive market relationships will yield superior market information and service delivery and facilitate additional investment opportunities to create long-term stockholder value.

Occupancy.  Our revenues are dependent on the occupancy of our office buildings.  At January 1, 2015, occupancy of our office portfolio was 88.6% compared to 89.1% at October 1, 2014 and 88.9% at January 1, 2014.  Not included in the January 1, 2015 occupancy rate is the impact of signed leases totaling 229,959 square feet expected to take occupancy between now and the second quarter of 2015, of which the majority will commence during the first quarter of 2015. Including these signed leases, our portfolio was 90.0% leased at January 1, 2015. Our average occupancy for the three months and year ended December 31, 2014 was 89.3% and 88.8%, respectively.

During the fourth quarter of 2014, 34 leases were renewed totaling 404,000 rentable square feet at an average annual rental rate per square foot of $32.02, representing a 13.4% rate increase as compared to expiring rental rates, and at an average cost of $4.34 per square foot per year of the lease term. During the year ended December 31, 2014, 149 leases were renewed totaling 1.9 million rentable square feet at an average annual rental rate per square foot of $30.46, and at an average cost of $4.53 per square foot per year of the lease term.  

During the fourth quarter of 2014, 17 expansion leases were signed totaling 228,000 rentable square feet at an average annual rental rate per square foot of $27.51 and at an average cost of $4.61 per square foot per year of the lease term.  During the year ended December 31, 2014, 60 expansion leases were signed totaling 420,000 rentable square feet at an average annual rental rate per square foot of $29.42 and at an average cost of $5.54 per square foot per year of the lease term.



38



During the fourth quarter of 2014, 38 new leases were signed totaling 304,000 rentable square feet at an average annual rental rate per square foot of $35.98 and at an average cost of $6.65 per square foot per year of the term.  During the year ended December 31, 2014, 126 new leases were signed totaling 968,000 rentable square feet at an average annual rental rate per square foot of $32.42 and at an average cost of $7.13 per square foot per year of the lease term.

Rental Rates.  An increase in vacancy rates in a market or at a specific property has the effect of reducing market rental rates.  Inversely, a decrease in vacancy rates in a market or at a specific property has the effect of increasing market rental rates. Our leases typically have three to seven year terms, though we do enter into leases with terms that are either shorter or longer than that typical range from time to time. As leases expire, we seek to replace existing leases with new leases at the current market rental rate. For our properties owned as of January 1, 2015, management estimates that we have approximately $1.93 per square foot in annual rental rate embedded growth in our office property leases. Embedded growth is defined as the difference between the weighted average in-place cash rents including operating expense reimbursements and the weighted average estimated market rental rate.

The following table represents the embedded growth by lease expiration year for our portfolio including unconsolidated joint ventures:

(1) Estimated average market rent is based upon information obtained from (1) our experience in leasing space at our properties; (2) leasing agents in relevant markets with respect to quoted rental rates and completed leasing transactions for comparable properties in relevant markets; and (3) publicly available data with respect thereto. Estimated average market rent is weighted by the occupied rentable square feet in each property.

Customer Retention.  Keeping existing customers is important as high customer retention leads to increased occupancy, less downtime between leases, and reduced leasing costs. We estimate that it costs two to three times more to replace an existing customer with a new one than to retain the existing customer. In making this estimate, we take into account the sum of revenue lost during downtime on the space plus leasing costs, which typically rise as market vacancies increase. Therefore, we focus a great amount of energy on customer retention. We seek to retain our customers by continually focusing on operations at our office and parking properties. We believe in providing superior customer service; hiring, training, retaining and empowering each employee; and creating an environment of open communication both internally and externally with customers and stockholders. Over the past ten years, we maintained an average 68% customer retention rate.  Our customer retention rate was 82.6% for the quarter ended December 31, 2014, as compared to 85.0% for the quarter ended September 30, 2014, and 76.7% for the quarter ended December 31, 2013. Customer retention for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 was 81.7% and 73.3%, respectively.

Recent Significant Activity

On November 17, 2014, we and CalSTRS terminated the Austin Joint Venture in Austin, Texas. Pursuant to the transaction agreements, we acquired CalSTRS' 60% interest in San Jacinto Center and One Congress Plaza, resulting in 100% ownership of these two properties, and transferred our 40% interest in Frost Bank Tower, 300 West 6th Street and One American Center to CalSTRS. We also received aggregate net proceeds of approximately $43.6 million from CalSTRS in connection with the transaction and recognized a $52.8 million gain in 2014. Prior to the termination of the joint venture, on a pro rata basis, we owned approximately 966,000 square feet of office space in Austin, Texas and, post-closing, we wholly own approximately 924,000 square feet.

On December 9, 2014, we acquired Corporate Center I, Corporate Center II and Corporate Center III, located in the Westshore submarket of Tampa, Florida, for a gross purchase price of $240.1 million. The acquisition of the Corporate Center assets was funded through a combination of proceeds received from our September 2014 public offering of common stock and borrowings under our senior unsecured revolving credit facility. In conjunction with the closing of the Corporate Center acquisition, we completed the purchase and immediate sale of 19 additional office and parking properties located in six states. We sold these

19 office assets, which were not consistent with our current investment strategy, for a gross sale price of $234.8 million at no gain or loss.

Joint Ventures and Partnerships

Management views investing in wholly owned properties as the highest priority of our capital allocation. However, we may selectively pursue joint ventures if we determine that such a structure will allow us to reduce anticipated risks related to a property or portfolio, limit concentration of rental revenue from a particular market or building or address unusual operational risks. To the extent we enter into joint ventures and partnerships, we will seek to manage all phases of the investment cycle including acquisition, financing, operations, leasing and dispositions, and we will seek to receive fees for providing these services.

Parkway Properties Office Fund II, L.P.

At December 31, 2014, we had one consolidated partnership structured as a discretionary fund. Fund II, a $750.0 million discretionary fund, was formed on May 14, 2008. Fund II was structured with TRST as a 70% investor and our operating partnership as a 30% investor, with an original target capital structure of approximately $375.0 million of equity capital and $375.0 million of non-recourse, fixed-rate first mortgage debt. Fund II currently owns seven properties totaling 2.5 million square feet in Atlanta, Georgia; Phoenix, Arizona; Jacksonville, Florida; and Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. In August 2012, Fund II increased its investment capacity by $20.0 million to purchase Hayden Ferry Lakeside III, IV and V, a 2,500 space parking garage, a 21,000 square foot office property and a vacant parcel of land available for development, all adjacent to our Hayden Ferry Lakeside I and Hayden Ferry Lakeside II office properties in Phoenix, Arizona. In August 2013, Fund II expanded its investment guidelines solely for the purpose of authorizing the purchase of a parcel of land available for development in Tempe, Arizona. In April 2014, Fund II authorized the development of Hayden Ferry Lakeside III, as well as the transfer of an interest in the owner of Hayden Ferry Lakeside III, a subsidiary of Fund II, to our operating partnership. We now own a 70% indirect interest in Hayden Ferry Lakeside III. In October 2014, Fund II sold Tempe Town Lake, approximately one acre of land located in Tempe, Arizona for a gross sale price of $2.0 million.

We serve as the general partner of Fund II and provide asset management, property management, leasing and construction management services to the fund, for which we are paid market-based fees. Cash is distributed by Fund II pro rata to each partner until a 9% annual cumulative preferred return is received and invested capital is returned. Thereafter, 56% will be distributed to TRST and 44% to us. The term of Fund II is seven years from the date the fund was fully invested, or until February 2019, with provisions to extend the term for two additional one-year periods at our discretion.

Joint Ventures

In addition to the 49 office and parking properties included in our consolidated financial statements, we were also invested in two unconsolidated joint ventures with unrelated investors as of December 31, 2014. These investments are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. Accordingly, the assets and liabilities of the joint ventures are not included in our consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2014. Information relating to these unconsolidated joint ventures is detailed below:

On June 3, 2013, we purchased an approximate 75% interest in the US Airways Building, a 225,000 square foot office property located in the Tempe submarket of Phoenix, Arizona, for a purchase price of $41.8 million. At closing, a subsidiary of ours issued a $3.5 million mortgage loan to an affiliate of US Airways, which is secured by the building. The mortgage loan carries a fixed interest rate of 3.0% and matures in December 2016. This nine-story office building is adjacent to our Hayden Ferry Lakeside and Tempe Gateway assets and shares a parking garage with our Tempe Gateway asset. The property is the headquarters for US Airways, which has leased 100% of the building through April 2024. US Airways has a termination option on December 31, 2016 or December 31, 2021 with 12 months prior notice. US Airways is also the owner of the remaining approximate 25% interest in the building. The balance of the investment in the joint venture entity was $39.8 million as of December 31, 2014.

On September 11, 2013, we, through a joint venture, acquired a 40% common equity interest in a mortgage note in the original principal amount of $65 million secured by 7000 Central Park, a 415,000 square foot office property located in the Central Perimeter submarket of Atlanta, Georgia. The total purchase price for the note, which was previously under special servicer oversight, was $56.6 million plus an additional $318,000 in transaction costs. Our share of such amount was approximately $45.0 million, comprised of an investment of approximately $37.0 million for a preferred equity interest in the joint venture that acquired the note and an investment of approximately $8.0 million for a 40% common equity interest. The joint venture foreclosed on the property on November 5, 2013. On December 13, 2013, we and our joint venture partner placed secured financing on the asset in the amount of $30.0 million, the net proceeds of which were used to repay a portion of our initial preferred equity investment, reducing our preferred equity interest to approximately $7.6 million. The balance of our investment in the joint venture was $15.8 million as of December 31, 2014.

On December 19, 2013, we acquired TPGI's interest in the Austin Joint Venture as part of the Mergers. As of December 31, 2013, we and Madison owned a 50% interest in the Austin Joint Venture, of which our ownership interest was 33%. The Austin Joint Venture owned the following properties: San Jacinto Center; Frost Bank Tower; One Congress Plaza; One American Center; and 300 West 6th Street. The cost of the Austin Joint Venture was adjusted to recognize our interest in the Austin Joint Venture’s earnings or losses. The difference between a) our ownership percentage in the Austin Joint Venture multiplied by its earnings and b) the amount of our equity in earnings of the Austin Joint Venture as reflected in the financial statements related to the amortization or accretion of purchase accounting adjustments made at the time of the merger.

On January 24, 2014, pursuant to a put right held by Madison, we purchased Madison’s approximately 17% interest in the Austin Joint Venture for a purchase price of approximately $41.5 million. On February 10, 2014, CalSTRS exercised an option to purchase 60% of Madison's former interest on the same terms that we acquired the interest from Madison for approximately $24.9 million. After giving effect to these transactions, we had a 40% interest in the Austin Joint Venture and the Austin properties, with CalSTRS owning the remaining 60%.

On November 17, 2014, we terminated the Austin Joint Venture. As part of the agreement, we acquired CalSTRS' 60% interest in San Jacinto Center and One Congress Plaza, resulting in 100% ownership of these two assets, and transferred our 40% interest in Frost Bank Tower, 300 West 6th Street and One American Center to CalSTRS. In connection with this transaction, we received net proceeds of approximately $43.6 million from CalSTRS and recognized a $52.8 million gain in 2014.

Financial Condition

Comparison of the year ended December 31, 2014 to the year ended December 31, 2013

Assets.  In 2014, we continued the execution of our strategy of operating and acquiring office and parking properties as well as disposing of non-core assets that no longer meet our investment criteria or for which a disposition would maximize value. During the year ended December 31, 2014, total assets increased $779.2 million or 26.6% as compared to the year ended December 31, 2013. The primary reasons for the increase were the proceeds from our first and third quarter 2014 underwritten public common stock offerings and our "at-the-market" equity offering program as well as borrowings under our senior unsecured revolving credit facility and unsecured term loans, which partially funded the purchase of ten office and parking properties, one land parcel available for development, one leasehold interest in land available for development, and the development in Phoenix, Arizona (see " —Acquisitions and Improvements"). The asset additions were partially offset by the disposition of four office and parking properties and one land parcel (see " —Dispositions").

Acquisitions and Improvements. Our investment in office and parking properties increased $707.5 million net of accumulated depreciation to a carrying amount of $3.0 billion at December 31, 2014 and consisted of 49 office and parking properties. The primary reason for the increase in office and parking properties relates to the purchase of ten office and parking properties, one land parcel available for development, and one leasehold interest in land available for development which are summarized in the table below, improvements to office and parking properties, and the development of Hayden Ferry Lakeside III, partially offset by the sales of four office properties and one land parcel, the reclassification of Raymond James Tower in Memphis, Tennessee and Honeywell in Houston, Texas to assets held for sale, and increased depreciation of office and parking properties during the year ended December 31, 2014.

Condominium Units.  In connection with the Mergers with TPGI, we acquired and consolidated our Murano residential condominium project, which we control. Our unaffiliated partner's interest is reflected on our consolidated balance sheets under the "Noncontrolling Interests" caption. Our partner owns 27% of the condominium project. Net proceeds from the project will be distributed, to the extent available, based on an order of preferences described in the partnership agreement. We may receive distributions, if any, in excess of our 73% ownership interest if certain return thresholds are met. The carrying value of our condominium units was $9.3 million and $19.9 million as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

Mortgage Loans Receivable.  On June 3, 2013, we issued a first mortgage loan to an affiliate of US Airways, which is secured by the US Airways Building, a 225,000 square foot office building in Phoenix, Arizona. The mortgage loan has a fixed interest rate of 3.0% and matures on December 31, 2016. The receivable balance as of December 31, 2014 and 2013 was $3.4 million and $3.5 million, respectively.

Investment in Unconsolidated Joint Ventures.  In addition to the 49 office and parking properties included in our consolidated financial statements, we also invested in two unconsolidated joint ventures with unrelated investors as of December 31, 2014.

We account for our investments in US Airways Building and 7000 Central Park under the equity method of accounting. Accordingly, the assets and liabilities of the joint ventures are not included in our consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2014. The balance of our investment in these joint ventures was $39.8 million and $15.8 million, respectively, as of December 31, 2014.

Receivables and Other Assets. For the year ended December 31, 2014, rents receivable and other assets increased $106.5 million or 59.6%. The increase in receivables and other assets is primarily due to increases in straight-line rents and escrow reserves held by the lenders, a $15.0 million earnest money deposit on One Buckhead Plaza which we purchased on January 8, 2015, and increases in other assets associated with properties acquired in 2014.

Intangible Assets, Net.  For the year ended December 31, 2014, intangible assets net of related amortization increased $18.7 million, or 11.2%, and was primarily due to the acquisition of ten wholly owned office and parking properties during 2014.

Assets Held for Sale and Liabilities Related to Assets Held for Sale.  As of December 31, 2014 and 2013, we classified assets held for sale totaling $24.1 million and $16.3 million, respectively, and liabilities related to assets held for sale totaling $2.0 million and $566,000, respectively. Assets and liabilities held for sale in 2014 relate to Raymond James Tower in Memphis, Tennessee and Honeywell in Houston, Texas. Assets and liabilities held for sale in 2013 relate to the Woodbranch Building in Houston, Texas and Mesa Corporate Center in Phoenix, Arizona.

Management Contracts, Net.  For the year ended December 31, 2014, management contracts decreased $12.6 million, or 91.8%, as a result of amortization recorded during the period of $7.9 million and a $4.8 million pre-tax impairment loss on the Eola Capital, LLC ("Eola") management contracts.

Cash and Cash equivalents.  Cash and cash equivalents increased by $57.6 million or 98.1% for the year ended December 31, 2014 primarily due to proceeds received from our underwritten public common stock offerings and our "at-the-market" offerings of our common stock during the period, borrowings under our senior unsecured revolving credit facility, and proceeds from the sale of real estate including proceeds received from the termination of the Austin Joint Venture, partially offset by repayments of bank borrowings and mortgage notes payable, payment of the purchase price upon the exercise of Madison's put option requiring us to purchase Madison's indirect interest in the Austin Joint Venture, dividends paid on common stock, investment in real estate and improvements to real estate.
    
Notes Payable to Banks. Notes payable to banks increased $178.5 million or 58.9% during the year ended December 31, 2014. The net increase was attributable to borrowings under our unsecured term loans and draws on our senior unsecured revolving credit facility which were used to payoff mortgage notes and fund acquisitions during the year.

For a description of our outstanding mortgage debts, please reference " —Liquidity and Capital Resources–Indebtedness–Mortgage Notes Payable."
    
We expect to continue seeking primarily fixed-rate, non-recourse mortgage financing with maturities from five to ten years typically amortizing over 25 to 30 years on select office building investments as additional capital is needed. We monitor a number of leverage and other financial metrics defined in the loan agreements for our senior unsecured revolving credit facility and working capital unsecured credit facility, which include but are not limited to our total debt to total asset value. In addition, we monitor interest and fixed charge coverage ratios as well as the net debt to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") multiple. The interest coverage ratio is computed by comparing interest expense to EBITDA. The fixed charge coverage ratio is computed by comparing interest expense, principal payments made on mortgage loans and preferred dividends paid to EBITDA. The net debt to EBITDA multiple is computed by comparing our share of net debt to EBITDA computed for the current quarter as annualized and adjusted pro forma for any completed investment activity. Management believes all of the leverage and other financial metrics it monitors, including those discussed above, provides useful information on total debt levels as well as our ability to cover interest and principal payments.  

Accounts Payable and Other Liabilities.  For the year ended December 31, 2014, accounts payable and other liabilities increased $13.5 million or 7.1% and is primarily due to an increase in property taxes payable.

Equity.  Total equity increased $343.8 million or 25.7% during the year ended December 31, 2014 as a result of the following (in thousands):

Common and Limited Voting Stock. On January 10, 2014, we completed an underwritten public offering of 10,500,000 shares of our common stock at the public offering price of $18.15. On February 11, 2014, we sold an additional 1,325,000 shares of our common stock at the public offering price of $18.15 pursuant to the exercise of the underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares. The net proceeds from the offering, including shares sold pursuant to the underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares, after deducting the underwriting discount and offering expenses payable by us, were approximately $205.2 million, which we used to fund acquisitions, to repay amounts outstanding from time to time under our senior unsecured revolving credit facility and for general corporate purposes.
    
On September 26, 2014, we completed an underwritten public offering of 10,000,000 shares of our common stock at the public offering price of $18.60. On October 2, 2014, we sold an additional 1,500,000 shares of our common stock at the public offering price of $18.60 pursuant to the exercise of the underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares. The net proceeds from the offering, including shares sold pursuant to the underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares, after deducting the underwriting discount and offering expenses payable by us, were approximately $204.8 million, which we used to fund acquisitions, to repay amounts outstanding from time to time under our senior unsecured revolving credit facility and for general corporate purposes.

On May 28, 2014, we entered into an ATM Equity OfferingSM Sales Agreement (the "Sales Agreement") with various agents whereby we may sell, from time to time, shares of our common stock, par value $.001 per share, having aggregate gross sales proceeds of up to $150.0 million through an "at-the-market" equity offering program. Sales may be made to the agents in their capacity as sales agents or as principals. We use the net proceeds for general corporate purposes, which may include repaying temporarily amounts outstanding from time to time under our senior unsecured revolving credit facility, for working capital and capital expenditures, and to fund potential acquisitions or development of office and parking properties. We are required to pay each agent a commission that will not exceed, but may be lower than, 2.0% of the gross sales price of the shares sold through such agent.

During the year ended December 31, 2014, we sold 391,900 shares of common stock under the program for net offering proceeds of approximately $8.0 million after deducting commissions of approximately $122,000. We used the net proceeds for general corporate purposes, including repaying amounts outstanding under our senior unsecured revolving credit facility, and to fund acquisitions and development of office and parking properties.
    
Shelf Registration Statement.  We have a universal shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (No. 333-193203) that was automatically effective upon filing on January 6, 2014. We may offer an indeterminate number or amount, as the case may be, of (1) shares of common stock, par value $.001 per share; (2) shares of preferred stock, par value $.001 per share; (3) depository shares representing our preferred stock; and (4) warrants to purchase common stock, preferred stock or depository shares representing preferred stock; and (5) rights to purchase our common stock, all of which may be issued from time to time on a delayed or continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act.

Results of Operations

Comparison of the year ended December 31, 2014 to the year ended December 31, 2013.

Net income attributable to common stockholders for the year ended December 31, 2014 was $42.9 million ($0.42 per basic and diluted common share). Net loss attributable to common stockholders for the year ended December 31, 2013 was $29.7 million ($0.45 per basic and diluted common share). The increase in net income attributable to common stockholders for the year ended December 31, 2014 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2013 in the amount of $72.6 million is primarily attributable to gains on the sale of real estate of $93.1 million, including a gain of $52.8 million recognized on the termination of our Austin Joint Venture. These gains were offset by an impairment loss on real estate of $11.7 million and a pre-tax impairment loss on management contracts of $4.8 million. Gains on sale of real estate during the year ended December 31, 2013 were $32.5 million. The change in income (loss) from discontinued operations as well as other variances for income and expense items that comprise net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders is discussed in detail below.

Income from Office and Parking Properties.  The analysis below includes changes attributable to same-store properties and acquisitions and dispositions of office and parking properties. Same-store properties are consolidated properties that we owned for the current and prior year reporting periods, excluding properties classified as discontinued operations. At December 31, 2014, same-store properties consisted of 33 properties comprising 10.7 million square feet.

Revenue from office and parking properties for same-store properties increased $5.9 million or 2.4% for the year ended December 31, 2014, compared to the year ended December 31, 2013. The primary reason for the increase is due to an increase in same-store average rental rates for same-store properties and an increase in average same-store occupancy for the year ended December 31, 2014 compared to the year ended December 31, 2013. Average same-store occupancy for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 was 90.0% and 89.9%, respectively.

Property operating expenses for same-store properties were consistent for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013.    

Management Company Income and Expenses.  Management company income increased $4.0 million during the year ended December 31, 2014 compared to the year ended December 31, 2013 and is primarily due to the addition of a management contract in connection with the Mergers as well as property management fees earned from our unconsolidated joint ventures. Management company expenses increased $881,000 during the year ended December 31, 2014 compared to the year ended December 31, 2013 and is primarily due to the addition of a management contract in connection with the Mergers and the associated increase in personnel costs.

Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense attributable to office and parking properties increased $64.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2014 compared to the year ended December 31, 2013. The primary reason for the increase is due to the purchase of three wholly owned office properties and properties acquired in connection with the Mergers during 2013, which were owned for a full year during 2014, in addition to the acquisition of ten wholly owned office and parking properties during 2014, partially offset by the disposition of four office properties during 2014.

Impairment Loss on Real Estate. During the year ended December 31, 2014, we recorded an $11.7 million impairment loss on real estate in continuing operations in connection with our estimated fair value of Raymond James Tower, a 337,000 square foot office property located in Memphis, Tennessee, which was classified as held for sale at December 31, 2014 and subsequently was sold on January 15, 2015. We did not record any impairment losses on real estate in continuing operations for the year ended December 31, 2013.

Impairment Loss on Management Contracts and Goodwill.  During the year ended December 31, 2014, we recorded a $4.8 million pre-tax non-cash impairment loss related to certain Eola management contracts.

46



General and Administrative Expense.  General and administrative expense increased $7.0 million or 27.3% for the year ended December 31, 2014, compared to the year ended December 31, 2013. The increase is primarily due to additional share-based compensation expense. Compensation expense related to stock options, profits interest units ("LTIPS"), restricted shares and deferred incentive share units of $8.2 million and $5.7 million was recognized for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The primary reason for the increase in share-based compensation expense for the year ended December 31, 2014 was due to the additional expense associated with new grants under the Parkway Properties, Inc. and Parkway Properties LP 2013 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan. Total compensation expense related to nonvested awards not yet recognized was $7.6 million at December 31, 2014. The weighted average period over which the expense is expected to be recognized is approximately one year.  

Acquisition Costs.  During the year ended December 31, 2014, we incurred $3.5 million in acquisition costs compared to $13.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2013. The primary reason for the decrease is due to costs associated with the Mergers.

Gain on Sale of In-Substance Real Estate. On December 19, 2013, we acquired TPGI's interest in the Austin Joint Venture as part of the Mergers. As of December 31, 2013, we and Madison owned a 50% interest in the Austin Joint Venture. On January 24, 2014, pursuant to a put right held by Madison, we purchased Madison’s approximately 17% interest in the Austin Joint Venture for a purchase price of approximately $41.5 million. On February 10, 2014, CalSTRS exercised an option to purchase 60% of Madison's former interest on the same terms that we acquired the interest from Madison for approximately $24.9 million. After giving effect to these transactions, we had a 40% interest in the Austin Joint Venture, with CalSTRS owning the remaining 60% and we recorded a gain of approximately $6.3 million during the year ended December 31, 2014.

Gain on Sale of Real Estate. On September 4, 2014, we sold the Schlumberger Building located in Houston, Texas. We received approximately $17.0 million in gross proceeds. We received $16.2 million in net proceeds from the sale, which we used to fund subsequent acquisitions. We recorded a gain of approximately $6.7 million during the year ended December 31, 2014.

On October 6, 2014, Fund II sold Tempe Town Lake, a parcel of land zoned for a hotel development in Tempe, Arizona, for a gross sale price of $2.0 million. During the year ended December 31, 2014, we recognized a gain of $739,000, of which $221,700 was our share.

On November 17, 2014, we and CalSTRS terminated the Austin Joint Venture in Austin, Texas. Pursuant to the transaction agreements, we acquired CalSTRS' 60% interest in San Jacinto Center and One Congress Plaza, resulting in 100% ownership of these two properties, and transferred our 40% interest in Frost Bank Tower, 300 West 6th Street and One American Center to CalSTRS. We also received aggregate net proceeds of approximately $43.6 million from CalSTRS in connection with the transaction and recognized a $52.8 million gain during the year ended December 31, 2014.

On December 29, 2014, we sold 525 North Tryon, an office property located in Charlotte, North Carolina, for a gross sale price of $60.0 million. During the year ended December 31, 2014, we recognized a gain on the sale of 525 North Tryon of approximately $16.2 million.

Loss on Extinguishment of Debt. On April 8, 2014, we drew upon an unsecured term loan provided by the Amended, Restated and Consolidated Credit Agreement and simultaneously repaid in full the first mortgage debt secured by the Bank of America Center in Orlando, Florida, which had an outstanding balance of $33.9 million. We recognized a loss on extinguishment of debt of $339,000 during the year ended December 31, 2014.

On December 31, 2014, we repaid in full the first mortgage debt secured by the Raymond James Tower in Memphis, Tennessee, which had an outstanding balance of $7.9 million. We recognized a loss on extinguishment of debt of $2.1 million during the year ended December 31, 2014.
    
Interest Expense.  Interest expense, including amortization of deferred financing costs, increased $20.5 million or 44.9% for the year ended December 31, 2014, compared to the year ended December 31, 2013 and is comprised of the following (in thousands):

Mortgage interest expense increased $17.3 million or 46.9% for the year ended December 31, 2014 compared to the year ended December 31, 2013, primarily due to $301.3 million of mortgage debt assumed in connection with our 2014 acquisitions of One Orlando Centre, One Congress Plaza, and San Jacinto Center, as well as a full year of interest expense for $534.8 million of mortgage debt placed or assumed during 2013 in connection with office and parking property acquisitions in 2013, $321.0 million of which related to the Mergers.

Credit facility interest expense increased $2.2 million or 34.1% for the year ended December 31, 2014 compared to the year ended December 31, 2013. The increase is due to an increase in year-to-date average borrowings of $68.9 million and an increase in the weighted average interest rate on average borrowings of 65 basis points.

Current income tax expense increased $4.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2014, compared to the year ended December 31, 2013. The increase is primarily attributable to an increase in income from our taxable REIT subsidiary and additional state taxes associated with our increased concentration in Pennsylvania and Texas as a result of the Mergers. Deferred income tax benefit increased $2.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2014, compared to the year ended December 31, 2013. The increase is primarily attributable to the book to tax differences related to the amortization and impairment loss associated with certain Eola management contracts.

Comparison of the year ended December 31, 2013 to the year ended December 31, 2012.

Net loss attributable to common stockholders for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 was $29.7 million ($0.45 per basic and diluted common share) and $51.2 million ($1.62 per basic and diluted common share), respectively. The decrease in net loss attributable to common stockholders for the year ended December 31, 2013 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2012 in the amount of $21.5 million is primarily attributable to a $42.0 million non-cash impairment loss on management contracts and goodwill recognized in 2012, a $19.6 million increase in gains on the sale of real estate from discontinued operations recognized during 2013, and the purchase of three wholly owned office and parking properties, offset by a $10.2 million non-cash impairment loss included in discontinued operations and recognized in connection with the sale of Waterstone and Meridian in Atlanta, Georgia and the valuation of Mesa Corporate Center, a 106,000 square foot office property located in Phoenix, Arizona, based on our estimated fair value of the asset, a $6.6 million charge related to the redemption of our Series D preferred stock, and additional severance costs recorded in connection with the closing of our Jackson, Mississippi office and the Mergers in 2013.

Income from Office and Parking Properties.  The analysis below includes changes attributable to same-store properties and acquisitions of office and parking properties. Same-store properties are consolidated properties that we owned for the current and prior year reporting periods, excluding properties classified as discontinued operations. During the year ended December 31, 2013, we classified as discontinued operations six properties totaling 1.2 million square feet that were sold during 2013 and two properties totaling 215,000 square feet that were classified as held for sale at December 31, 2013. At December 31, 2013, same-store properties consisted of 30 properties comprising 8.6 million square feet.

Revenue from office and parking properties for same-store properties decreased $1.2 million or 0.7% for the year ended December 31, 2013, compared to the year ended December 31, 2012. The primary reason for the decrease is due to a decrease in same-store average rental rates for same-store properties, partially offset by an increase in average same-store occupancy for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to the year ended December 31, 2012. Average same-store occupancy for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 was 89.9% and 88.3%, respectively.

Property operating expenses for same-store properties were consistent for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012.

Management Company Income and Expenses.  Management company income decreased $1.6 million and management company expenses increased $2.2 million during the year ended December 31, 2013, compared to the year ended December 31, 2012 and is primarily a result of the termination of management contracts during 2012 and 2013. The primary reason for the increase in management company expenses was an increase in personnel costs.

Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense attributable to office and parking properties increased $43.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to the year ended December 31, 2012. The primary reason for the increase is due to the purchase of nine office and parking properties during 2012, which were owned for a full year during 2013, in addition to the purchase of three wholly owned office and parking properties, and properties acquired in connection with the Mergers, partially offset by the disposition of six office and parking properties during 2013. The total gross purchase price for acquisitions completed during the year ended December 31, 2013 was approximately $1.7 billion compared with $761.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2012.

Impairment Loss on Real Estate.  We did not record any impairment losses on real estate in continuing operations for the year ended December 31, 2013. We recorded total impairment losses on real estate of $9.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2012. For the year ended December 31, 2012, $5.7 million of the total impairment losses recorded were included in continuing operations and was comprised of a loss in connection with an asset in Jackson, Mississippi.

Impairment Loss on Management Contracts and Goodwill.  During the year ended December 31, 2012, we recorded a $42.0 million non-cash impairment loss, net of deferred tax liability, associated with our investment in management contracts and goodwill.  Our strategy related to the third-party management business has changed since the acquisition of these contracts. When the contracts were acquired, our strategy was to grow the third-party business and continue to add management contracts in our various markets.  While we still view the cash flows from this business as positive and the additional management contracts give us scale and critical mass in some of our key markets, we are no longer actively seeking to grow this portion of the business. Given this change in strategy, we determined that our management contracts and associated goodwill were impaired and recorded a $42.0 million non-cash impairment charge, net of deferred tax liability, during the fourth quarter of 2012. We did not record any impairment losses on management contracts and goodwill for the year ended December 31, 2013.

Change in Fair Value of Contingent Consideration.  On May 18, 2011, we closed on the agreement with Eola in which Eola contributed its property management company to us. Eola's principals contributed the Management Company to us for initial consideration of $32.4 million in cash and contingent consideration of 1.8 million common units to Eola's principals through an earn-out and earn-up arrangement based on the achievement by the contributed management company of certain targeted annual gross fee revenue for the balance of 2011 and 2012. The initial value of the common units was $31.0 million based on our stock price on the date of purchase. However, due to the decline in our stock price during 2011, the value of the contingent consideration was reduced to $18.0 million, resulting in a change in fair value of the contingent consideration of $13.0 million recorded during the year ended December 31, 2011, as compared to an increase of $216,000 recorded during the year ended December 31, 2012, upon the issuance of the common units. On December 30, 2011, we and the former Eola principals amended certain post-closing provisions of the contribution agreement to provide, among other things, that if the contributed management company achieved annual revenues in excess of the original 2011 target, all common units subject to the 2011 earn-out, the 2012 earn-out and the earn-up will be deemed earned and paid when the 2011 earn-out payment is made. Based on the contributed management company revenue for 2011, the target was achieved and all common units were earned and issued to Eola's former principals on February 28, 2012. As of December 31, 2012, all common units had been redeemed for our common stock.

General and Administrative Expense. General and administrative expense increased $9.2 million or 56.2% for the year ended December 31, 2013, compared to the year ended December 31, 2012. The increase is primarily due to additional severance expenses associated with the Mergers and the closing of our Jackson, Mississippi office as well as additional personnel expenses incurred during 2013 as part of transitioning our corporate office from Jackson, Mississippi to Orlando, Florida. Compensation expense related to stock options, LTIPS, restricted shares and deferred incentive share units of $5.7 million and $432,000 was recognized for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The primary reason for the increase in share-based compensation expense for the year ended December 31, 2013 was due to the additional expense associated with new grants under the Parkway Properties, Inc. and Parkway Properties LP 2013 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan. Total compensation expense related to nonvested awards not yet recognized was $12.8 million at December 31, 2013. The weighted average period over which the expense is expected to be recognized is approximately two years.  

We previously adopted a long-term cash incentive plan that was designed to reward significant outperformance over the three-year period beginning July 1, 2010. The performance goals for actual payment under the long-term cash incentive required us to (1) achieve an absolute compounded annual total return to stockholders ("TRTS"), that exceeds 14% and (2) achieve an absolute compounded annual TRTS that exceeds the compounded annual return of the RMS by at least 500 basis points. As of June 30, 2013, which was the end of the performance period, we did not achieve the performance goals and the performance-based awards did not vest.

Acquisition Costs. During the year ended December 31, 2013, we incurred $13.1 million in acquisition costs compared to $2.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2012. The primary reason for the increase is due to costs associated with the Mergers as well as purchases of three wholly owned office properties, TRST's interest in four office properties, two investments in unconsolidated joint ventures, and two parcels of land available for development in 2013, compared with the purchase of three Fund II office properties and a parking garage and six wholly owned office properties that closed during 2012. Our proportionate share of acquisition costs for the year ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 was $13.1 million and $2.1 million, respectively.

Mortgage interest expense increased $7.1 million or 23.9% for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to the year ended December 31, 2012, primarily due to $534.8 million of mortgage debt placed or assumed during 2013 in connection with office and parking property acquisitions in 2013, $321.0 million of which relates to the Mergers, as well as a full year of interest expense for $132.2 million of mortgage debt placed or assumed during 2012 in connection with office and parking property acquisitions in 2012, partially offset by interest savings on $65.0 million of principal paid on the early extinguishment of debt.

Credit facility interest expense increased $3.7 million or 139.8% for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to the year ended December 31, 2012. The increase is due to an increase in year-to-date average borrowings of $180.3 million offset by a decrease in the weighted average interest rate on average borrowings of 15 basis points. The increase in average borrowings is primarily due to the placement of a $125.0 million unsecured term loan in September 2012, the placement of a $120.0 million unsecured term loan in June 2013 and borrowings under our senior unsecured revolving credit facility to purchase office and parking properties during 2012 and 2013 and to fund the redemption of our Series D preferred stock, offset by repayment of borrowings under our senior unsecured revolving credit facility from proceeds of our underwritten public common stock offerings during December 2012 and March 2013 and sales of office and parking properties.

Current income tax expense decreased $561,000 for the year ended December 31, 2013, compared to the year ended December 31, 2012. The decrease is primarily attributable to an increase in expense for the period from our taxable REIT subsidiary in 2013. Deferred income tax benefit increased $1.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to the year ended December 31, 2012. The increase is primarily attributable to the reduction in the value of our management contracts to $19.0 million at December 31, 2012. During 2012, the remaining useful life for these management contracts was reduced to 2.7 years for book amortization purposes. At December 31, 2013, the deferred tax liability totaled $11,000.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

General

Our principal short-term and long-term liquidity needs include:

funding operating and administrative expenses;
meeting debt service and debt maturity obligations;
funding normal repair and maintenance expenses at our properties;
funding capital improvements;
funding the development costs for our Hayden Ferry Lakeside III development project;
acquiring additional investments that meet our investment criteria; and
funding distributions to stockholders.

We may fund these liquidity needs by drawing on multiple sources, including the following:

our current cash balance;
our operating cash flows;
borrowings (including borrowings under our senior unsecured revolving credit facility);
proceeds from the placement of new mortgage loans and refinancing of existing mortgage loans;
proceeds from the sale of assets and the sale of portions of assets owned through joint ventures; and
the sale of equity or debt securities.

Our short-term liquidity needs include funding operation and administrative expenses, normal repair and maintenance expenses at our properties, capital improvements and distributions to stockholders. We anticipate using our current cash balance, our operating cash flows and borrowings (including borrowing availability under our senior unsecured revolving credit facility) to meet our short-term liquidity needs. We have received an investment grade rating which may positively impact our ability to access capital on favorable terms.

Our long-term liquidity needs include the principal amount of our long-term debt as it matures, significant capital expenditures that need to be made at our properties and acquiring additional investments that meet our investment criteria. We anticipate using proceeds from the placement of new mortgage loans and refinancing of existing mortgage loans, proceeds from the sale of assets and the portions of owned assets through joint ventures and the possible sale of equity or debt securities to meet our long-term liquidity needs. We anticipate that these funding sources will be adequate to meet our liquidity needs.

Cash

Cash and cash equivalents were $116.2 million and $58.7 million at December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.  Cash flows provided by operating activities for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 were $53.0 million and $65.1 million, respectively.  The decrease in cash flows from operating activities of $12.1 million is primarily attributable to timing of receipt of revenues and payment of expenses.

Cash used in investing activities was $412.2 million and $146.9 million for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.  The increase in cash flows used by investing activities of $265.3 million is primarily attributable to increases in investment in real estate, improvements to real estate and real estate development.

Cash provided by financing activities was $416.7 million and $58.6 million for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.  The increase in cash provided by financing activities of $358.1 million is primarily attributable to an increase in proceeds from common stock offerings, net of offering expenses, increase in borrowings under our senior unsecured revolving credit facility, and decreases in redemptions of preferred stock and distributions to noncontrolling interest partners, partially offset by increases in acquisitions of noncontrolling interests and dividends paid on common stock.

Effective April 1, 2014, we entered into an Amended, Restated and Consolidated Credit Agreement (the "Amended Agreement") which provides for a $250.0 million senior unsecured revolving credit facility, a $250.0 million five-year unsecured term loan, and a $100.0 million seven-year unsecured term loan. The Amended Agreement amended, restated and consolidated the agreements governing our prior $215.0 million senior unsecured revolving credit facility, $125.0 million unsecured term loan and $120.0 million unsecured term loan. The maturity date of the senior unsecured revolving credit facility was extended to March 30, 2018, with an additional one-year extension option, and the $250.0 million five-year unsecured term loan and $100.0 million seven-year unsecured term loan have maturity dates of March 29, 2019 and March 31, 2021, respectively.

On January 27, 2015, the Company completed a $200.0 million increase in revolving commitments using the accordion option available under its existing amended, restated and consolidated credit agreement. With this increase, the senior unsecured revolving credit facility now totals $450.0 million. All other terms and covenants associated with the senior unsecured revolving credit facility remained unchanged as a result of the increase.

The senior unsecured revolving credit facility bears interest at LIBOR plus an applicable margin which ranges from 1.40% to 2.00% based on our overall leverage, and is currently 1.40% resulting in an all-in rate of 1.56%. The $250.0 million five-year unsecured term loan bears interest at LIBOR plus an applicable margin which ranges from 1.35% to 1.90% based on our overall leverage, and is currently 1.35% resulting in a weighted average all-in rate of 2.51%, after giving effect to the floating-to-fixed-rate interest rate swaps. The $100.0 million seven-year unsecured term loan bears interest at LIBOR plus an applicable margin which ranges from 1.75% to 2.30% based on our overall leverage, and is currently 1.75%, resulting in an all-in rate of 4.31%, after accounting for the floating-to-fixed-rate interest rate swap. For a discussion of interest rate swaps entered into in connection with our unsecured term loans and senior unsecured revolving credit facility, see "Note 8—Capital and Financing Transactions—Interest Rate Swaps" in our financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

The $100.0 million seven-year unsecured term loan tranche had a delayed-draw feature which allowed us to draw all or a portion of the $100.0 million commitment in not more than two draws over a 12-month period. We drew the full amount on April 8, 2014 and simultaneously repaid in full the first mortgage debt secured by the Bank of America Center in Orlando, Florida, which had an outstanding balance of $33.9 million. We recognized a loss on extinguishment of debt of $339,000 on the repayment of the Bank of America Center mortgage.

Additionally, effective April 1, 2014, we amended our $10.0 million unsecured working capital credit facility under terms and conditions similar to the Amended Agreement.

We monitor a number of leverage and other financial metrics including, but not limited to, debt to total asset value ratio, as defined in the loan agreements for our senior unsecured revolving credit facility. In addition, we also monitor interest, fixed charge and modified fixed charge coverage ratios, as well as the net debt to EBITDA multiple. The interest coverage ratio is computed by comparing the cash interest accrued to EBITDA. The interest coverage ratio for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 was 3.6 times and 3.8 times, respectively. The fixed charge coverage ratio is computed by comparing the cash interest accrued, principal payments made on mortgage loans and preferred dividends paid to EBITDA. The fixed charge coverage ratio for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 was 3.1 and 2.9 times, respectively. The net debt to EBITDA multiple is computed by comparing our share of net debt to EBITDA for the current quarter, as annualized and adjusted pro forma for any completed investment activities. The net debt to EBITDA multiple for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 was 6.1 and 6.7 times, respectively. Management believes various leverage and other financial metrics it monitors provide useful information on total debt levels as well as our ability to cover interest, principal and/or preferred dividend payments.  

Mortgage Notes Payable.  At December 31, 2014, we had $1.3 billion in mortgage notes payable secured by office and parking properties, with an average interest rate of 4.4%.

On April 8, 2014, we repaid the first mortgage debt secured by Bank of America Center and terminated the related $33.9 million floating-to-fixed interest rate swap.

On April 14, 2014, we purchased One Orlando Centre in Orlando, Florida, and simultaneously restructured the existing first mortgage loan secured by the property. The existing $68.3 million first mortgage note was restructured into a new $54.0 million first mortgage note and a $15.3 million subordinated note. Upon the sale or recapitalization of the property, proceeds are to be distributed first to the lender up to the amount of outstanding principal of the first mortgage note; second, to us up to our equity investment; third, to us until we receive a 12% annual return on our equity investment; fourth, 60% to us and 40% to the lender until the subordinated note is repaid in full; and fifth, to us at 100%. At the acquisition date, and as of December 31, 2014, the fair value of the subordinated note was zero.

On July 2, 2014, Fund II closed on a construction loan secured by the Hayden Ferry Lakeside III development in the Tempe submarket of Phoenix, Arizona, for $43.0 million, or 62.5% of the total estimated cost of the development, which will be funded subsequent to Fund II's and our equity investment in the development. The loan is initially a 35% recourse loan to Fund II that will be reduced to non-recourse upon stabilization of the property. The loan is cross-collateralized with Fund II's Hayden Ferry Lakeside I, Hayden Ferry Lakeside II, Hayden Ferry Lakeside IV and the adjacent parking garage. The loan matures on July 25, 2018, is interest-only through maturity, and has an interest rate of one-month LIBOR plus 1.80% which decreases to 1.60% upon stabilization. As of December 31, 2014, the balance of the construction loan payable was approximately $481,000.

On November 17, 2014, we terminated the Austin Joint Venture. Pursuant to the transaction agreements, we acquired CalSTRS' 60% interest in One Congress Plaza and San Jacinto Center, resulting in 100% ownership of these two assets. As a result, we assumed a mortgage loan with a balance of $128.0 million at December 31, 2014, with a fixed interest rate of 3.2% and a maturity date of June 11, 2017 for One Congress Plaza, and assumed a mortgage loan with a balance of $101.0 million at December 31, 2014, with a fixed interest rate of 3.2% and a maturity date of June 11, 2017 for San Jacinto Center.

On December 31, 2014, we extinguished the mortgage loan associated with Raymond James Tower in Memphis, Tennessee with a principal balance of $7.9 million. We incurred a loss on extinguishment of debt of approximately $2.1 million as part of the repayment.

Our cash flows are exposed to interest rate changes primarily as a result of our senior unsecured revolving credit facility and term loans which have a floating interest rate tied to LIBOR. Our interest rate risk management objective is to appropriately limit the impact of interest rate changes on cash flows and to lower our overall borrowing costs. To achieve our objectives, we borrow at fixed rates when possible. In addition, we entered into and will from time to time enter into interest rate swap agreements. However, interest rate swap agreements and other hedging arrangements may expose us to additional risks, including a risk that a counterparty to a hedging arrangement may fail to honor our obligations. Developing an effective interest rate risk

56



strategy is complex and no strategy can completely insulate us from risks associated with interest rate fluctuations. There can be no assurance that our hedging activities will have the desired beneficial impact on our results of operations or financial condition.

We designated the swaps as cash flow hedges of the variable interest rates on our $250.0 million unsecured term loan, our $100.0 million unsecured term loan, and the debt secured by 245 Riverside, Corporate Center Four, Two Ravinia, Hayden Ferry I, and Hayden Ferry II.

On April 8, 2014, we terminated the $33.9 million swap designated to the Bank of America Center first mortgage. The net impact of the changes made to the existing swaps during the year ended December 31, 2014 resulted in a one-time increase in interest expense of approximately $121,000.

On April 1, 2014, we entered into a new $100.0 million floating-to-fixed interest rate swap attributable to one-month LIBOR indexed interest payments made each month. The $100.0 million swap has a fixed rate of 2.6%, an effective date of April 1, 2014 and a maturity date of March 31, 2021. We entered into this interest rate swap in connection with our $100.0 million seven-year unsecured term loan that bears interest at LIBOR plus the applicable margin which ranges from 1.75% to 2.30% based on our overall leverage. The current spread associated with the loan is 1.75% resulting in an all-in rate of 4.31%.

We designated these swaps as cash flow hedges of the variable interest payments associated with the mortgage loans.

Equity

We have a universal shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (No. 333-193203) that was automatically effective upon filing on January 6, 2014 . We may offer an indeterminate number or amount, as the case may be, of (1) shares of common stock, par value $.001 per share; (2) shares of preferred stock, par value $.001 per share; (3) depository shares representing our preferred stock; and (4) warrants to purchase common stock, preferred stock or depository shares representing preferred stock; and (5) rights to purchase our common stock, all of which may be issued from time to time on a delayed or continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act.


57



We may issue equity securities from time to time, including units issued by our operating partnership in connection with property acquisitions, as management may determine necessary or appropriate to satisfy our liquidity needs, taking into consideration market conditions, our stock price, the cost and availability of other sources of liquidity and any other relevant factors.

On January 10, 2014, we completed an underwritten public offering of 10,500,000 shares of our common stock at the public offering price of $18.15. On February 11, 2014, we sold an additional 1,325,000 shares of our common stock at the public offering price of $18.15 pursuant to the exercise of the underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares. The net proceeds from the offering, including shares sold pursuant to the underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares, after deducting the underwriting discount and offering expenses payable by us, were approximately $205.2 million, which we used to fund acquisitions, to repay amounts outstanding from time to time under our senior unsecured revolving credit facility and for general corporate purposes.
    
On September 26, 2014, we completed an underwritten public offering of 10,000,000 shares of our common stock at the public offering price of $18.60. On October 2, 2014, we sold an additional 1,500,000 shares of our common stock at the public offering price of $18.60 pursuant to the exercise of the underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares. The net proceeds from the offering, including shares sold pursuant to the underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares, after deducting the underwriting discount and offering expenses payable by us, were approximately $204.8 million, which we used to fund acquisitions, to repay amounts outstanding from time to time under our senior unsecured revolving credit facility and for general corporate purposes.

On May 28, 2014, we entered into the Sales Agreement with various agents whereby we may sell, from time to time, shares of our common stock, par value $.001 per share, having aggregate gross sales proceeds of up to $150.0 million through an "at-the-market" equity offering program. Sales may be made to the agents in their capacity as sales agents or as principals. We use the net proceeds for general corporate purposes, which may include repaying temporarily amounts outstanding from time to time under our senior unsecured revolving credit facility, for working capital and capital expenditures, and to fund potential acquisitions or development of office and parking properties. We are required to pay each agent a commission that will not exceed, but may be lower than, 2.0% of the gross sales price of the shares sold through such agent.

During the year ended December 31, 2014, we sold 391,900 shares of common stock under the program for net offering proceeds of approximately $8.0 million after deducting commissions of approximately $122,000. We used the net proceeds for general corporate purposes, including repaying amounts outstanding under our senior unsecured revolving credit facility, and to fund acquisitions and development of office and parking properties.

Capital Expenditures

We presently have plans to make recurring capital expenditures to our office and parking properties during 2015 of approximately $74.0 million to $78.0 million on a consolidated basis, with approximately $63.0 million to $67.0 million representing our share. During the year ended December 31, 2014, we incurred $51.0 million in recurring capital expenditures on a consolidated basis, with $45.0 million representing our share. These costs include tenant improvements, leasing costs and recurring building improvements. Additionally, we presently have plans to make improvements related to upgrades on consolidated properties acquired in recent years that were anticipated at the time of purchase in 2015 of approximately $124.0 million to $128.0 million on a consolidated basis, with approximately $114.0 million to $118.0 million representing our share. During the year ended December 31, 2014, we incurred $52.9 million related to upgrades on properties acquired in recent years that were anticipated at the time of purchase and major renovations that are nonrecurring in nature to office and parking properties, with $56.9 million representing our share, including unconsolidated joint ventures. All such improvements were financed, or will be financed, with cash flow from the properties, capital expenditure escrow accounts, advances from our senior unsecured revolving credit facility and contributions from joint venture partners.

Dividends

During 2014, we paid $80.6 million in dividends, $76.7 million to our common stockholders and $3.9 million to our common unit holders of our operating partnership. These dividends were funded with cash flow from the properties, proceeds from the sales of properties, proceeds from the issuance of common stock or borrowings on our senior unsecured revolving credit facility. For additional information on our distribution policy, see "Item 5. Market for Registrant's Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities—Market Price of and Dividends on the Issuer's Common Equity and Series D Preferred Stock."

The amounts presented above for long-term debt include principal and interest payments. Long-term debt includes principal and interest payments due for mortgage notes payable, as well as principal and interest payments under our $250.0 million senior unsecured revolving credit facility which matures March 30, 2018, our $250.0 million unsecured term loan which matures March 29, 2019, and our $100 million unsecured term loan which matures March 31, 2021. The amounts presented for purchase obligations represent the remaining tenant improvement allowances and lease inducement costs for leases in place and commitments for building improvements at December 31, 2014.

Critical Accounting Estimates

General.  Our investments are generally made in office and parking properties. Therefore, we are generally subject to risks incidental to the ownership of real estate. Some of these risks include changes in supply or demand for office and parking properties or customers for such properties in an area in which we have buildings; changes in real estate tax rates; and changes in federal income tax, real estate and zoning laws. Our discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is based upon our Consolidated Financial Statements. Our Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of Parkway Properties, Inc., our majority owned subsidiaries and joint ventures in which we have a controlling interest. We also consolidate subsidiaries where the entity is a variable interest entity and we are the primary beneficiary. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses for the reporting period. Actual results could differ from our estimates.

The accounting policies and estimates used in the preparation of our Consolidated Financial Statements are more fully described in the notes to our Consolidated Financial Statements. However, certain of our significant accounting policies are considered critical accounting policies due to the increased level of assumptions used or estimates made in determining their impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.

We consider critical accounting policies and estimates to be those used in the determination of the reported amounts and disclosure related to the following:

(1)  Revenue recognition;
(2)  Impairment of long-lived assets;
(3)  Depreciable lives applied to real estate and improvements to real estate; and
(4)  Initial recognition, measurement and allocation of the cost of real estate acquired; and
(5) Share-based compensation.

Revenue Recognition.  Revenue from real estate rentals is recognized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the respective leases.  The cumulative difference between lease revenue recognized under this method and contractual lease payment terms is recorded as straight line rent receivable on the accompanying balance sheets.

When we are the owner of the tenant improvements, the leased space is ready for its intended use when the tenant improvements are substantially completed, at which point revenue recognition begins. In limited instances, when the tenant is the owner of the tenant improvements, straight-line rent is recognized when the tenant takes possession of the unimproved space.



59



The leases also typically provide for tenant reimbursement of a portion of common area maintenance, real estate taxes and other operating expenses.  Property operating cost recoveries from customers ("expense reimbursements") are recognized as revenue in the period in which the expenses are incurred. The computation of expense reimbursements is dependent on the provisions of individual customer leases.  Most customers make monthly fixed payments of estimated expense reimbursements. We make adjustments, positive or negative, to expense reimbursement income quarterly to adjust the recorded amounts to our best estimate of the final property operating costs based on the most recent annual estimate.  After the end of the calendar year, we compute each customer's final expense reimbursements and issue a bill or credit for the difference between the actual amount and the amounts billed monthly during the year. Differences between actual billed amounts and accrued amounts are considered immaterial.

Management company income represents market-based fees earned from providing management, construction, leasing, brokerage, and acquisition services to unconsolidated joint ventures, related parties, and third parties. Management fee income is computed and recorded monthly in accordance with the terms set forth in the management service agreements. Leasing and brokerage commissions, as well as salary and administrative fees, are recognized pursuant to the terms of the agreements at the time underlying leases are signed, which is the point at which the earnings process is complete and collection of the fees is reasonably assured. Fees relating to the purchase or sale of property are recognized when the earnings process is complete and collection of the fees is reasonably assured, which usually occurs at closing. All fees on Company-owned properties and consolidated joint ventures are eliminated in consolidation. We recognize our share of fees earned from unconsolidated joint ventures in management company income.

We have one high-rise condominium project. Under the provisions of FASB Accounting Standards Codification 360-20, "Property, Plant and Equipment" subsection "Real Estate and Sales," revenue and costs for projects are recognized when all parties are bound by the terms of the contract, all consideration has been exchanged, any permanent financing for which the seller is responsible has been arranged and all conditions precedent to closing have been performed. This results in profit from the sale of condominium units recognized at closing. Revenue is recognized on the contract price of individual units. Total estimated costs are allocated to individual units which have closed on a relative value basis.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets.  Changes in the supply or demand of customers for our properties could impact our ability to fill available space.  Should a significant amount of available space exist for an extended period, our investment in a particular office building may be impaired. We evaluate our real estate assets and intangible assets upon the occurrence of significant adverse changes to assess whether any impairment indicators are present that affect the recovery of the carrying amount.

We classify certain assets as held for sale based on management having the authority and intent of entering into commitments for sale transactions to close in the next twelve months. We consider an office and parking property as held for sale once we have executed a contract for sale, allowed the buyer to complete its due diligence review and received a substantial non-refundable deposit. Until a buyer has completed its due diligence review of the asset, necessary approvals have been received and substantive conditions to the buyer's obligation to perform have been satisfied, we do not consider a sale to be probable. When we identify an asset as held for sale, we estimate the net realizable value of such asset and discontinue recording depreciation on the asset. We record assets held for sale at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. If the fair value of the asset net of estimated selling costs is less than the carrying amount, we record an impairment loss. With respect to assets classified as held and used, we recognize an impairment loss if the carrying amount is not recoverable and exceeds the sum of undiscounted future cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the asset. Upon impairment, we recognize an impairment loss to reduce the carrying value of the real estate asset to the estimate of its fair value. The cash flow and fair value estimates are based on assumptions about employing the asset for its remaining useful life. Factors considered in projecting future cash flows include, but are not limited to: existing leases, future leasing and terminations, market rental rates, capital improvements, tenant improvements, leasing commissions, inflation, discount rates, capitalization rates, and other known variables.

Depreciable Lives Applied to Real Estate and Improvements to Real Estate.  Depreciation of buildings and parking garages is computed using the straight-line method over an estimated useful life of 40 years. Depreciation of building improvements is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the improvement.  If our estimate of useful lives proves to be incorrect, the depreciation expense recognized would also be incorrect. Therefore, a change in the estimated useful lives assigned to buildings and improvements would result in either an increase or decrease in depreciation expense prospectively, which would result in a decrease or increase in earnings.

Initial Recognition, Measurement and Allocation of the Cost of Real Estate Acquired.  We account for our acquisitions of real estate by allocating the fair value of real estate to acquired tangible assets, consisting of land, building, garage, building improvements and tenant improvements, identified intangible assets and liabilities, which consist of the value of above and below market leases, lease costs, the value of in-place leases, and any value attributable to above or below market debt assumed with the acquisition.


60



We allocate the purchase price of properties to tangible and intangible assets based on fair values. We determine the fair value of the tangible and intangible components using a variety of methods and assumptions all of which result in an approximation of fair value. Differing assumptions and methods could result in different estimates of fair value and thus, a different purchase price allocation and corresponding increase or decrease in depreciation and amortization expense.
Share Based Compensation. We account for share-based employee compensation plans under the fair value recognition and measurement provisions in accordance with applicable accounting standards, which require all share-based payments to employees to be measured based on the grant-date fair value of the awards.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Effective January 1, 2014, we adopted guidance issued by FASB ASU No. 2014-08, "Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity." This update amends the criteria for reporting discontinued operations to, among other things, raise the threshold for disposals to qualify as discontinued operations, and only disposals that represent a strategic shift in operations that is material will be presented as discontinued operations. This update is effective for interim and annual reporting periods, beginning after December 15, 2014, with early adoption permitted. We present 2014 property sales and will present future property sales, to the extent they do not represent a strategic shift in operations, in the continuing operations section of the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) with the exception of those properties previously included as held for sale at December 31, 2013. Our 2014 sales of the Woodbranch Building and Mesa Corporate Center are included in discontinued operations for the year ended December 31, 2014 as these properties were previously classified as held for sale at December 31, 2013. Our 2014 sales of the Schlumberger Building and 525 North Tryon are included in the continuing operations section of the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) as they were not previously classified as held for sale as of December 31, 2013 and do not qualify for inclusion in discontinued operations as they do not represent a strategic shift in our operations.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers." This update was initiated in a joint project between the FASB and the International Accounting Standards Board to clarify the principles for recognizing revenue and to develop a common revenue standard for generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") and International Financial Reporting Standards that would: (1) remove inconsistencies and weaknesses in revenue requirements; (2) provide a more robust framework for addressing revenue issues; (3) improve comparability of revenue recognition practices across entities, industries, jurisdictions, and capital markets; (4) provide more useful information to users of financial statements through improved disclosure requirements; and (5) simplify the preparation of financial statements by reducing the number of requirements to which an entity must refer. The core principle of the guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods and services. This update is effective for interim and annual reporting periods, beginning after December 15, 2016, and early application is not permitted. The standard allows for either "full retrospective" adoption, meaning the standard is applied to all of the periods presented, or "modified retrospective" adoption, meaning the standard is applied only to the most current period presented in the financial statements. We are currently assessing this guidance for future implementation.

In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15, "Presentation of Financial Statements - Going Concern." The amendments in this update provide guidance in GAAP about management's responsibilities to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity's ability to continue as a going concern and to provide related footnote disclosures. The main provision of the amendments are for an entity's management, in connection with the preparation of financial statements, to evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about an entity's ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued. Management's evaluation should be based on relevant conditions and events that are known or reasonably knowable at the date the financial statements are issued. When management identifies conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about an entity's ability to continue as a going concern, the entity should disclose information that enables users of the financial statements to understand all of the following: (1) principal conditions or events that raised substantial doubt about the entity's ability to continue as a going concern (before consideration of management's plans); (2) management's evaluation of the significance of those conditions or events in relation to the entity's ability to meet its obligations; and (3) management's plans that alleviated substantial doubt about the entity's ability to continue as a going concern or management's plans that are intended to mitigate the conditions or event that raise substantial doubt about the entity's ability to continue as a going concern. The amendments in this update are effective for the interim and annual reporting periods after December 15, 2016 and early application is permitted. We are currently assessing this guidance for future implementation.

In January 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-01, "Income Statement - Extraordinary and Unusual Items (Subtopic 225-20): Simplifying Income Statement Presentation by Eliminating the Concept of Extraordinary Items", (“ASU 2015-01”). ASU 2015-01 eliminates the concept of an extraordinary item from GAAP. As a result, an entity will no longer be required to segregate extraordinary items from the results of ordinary operations, to separately present an extraordinary item on its income statement, net of tax, after income from continuing operations or to disclose income taxes and earnings-per-share data applicable to an extraordinary item. However, ASU 2015-01 will still retain the presentation and disclosure guidance for items that are unusual in nature and occur infrequently. ASU 2015-01 will be effective for our fiscal year beginning January 1, 2016 and subsequent interim periods. The adoption of ASU 2015-015 is not expected to have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

In February 2015, the FASB issued new consolidation guidance which makes changes to both the variable interest model and the voting model.  The new standard specifically eliminates the presumption in the current voting model that a general partner controls a limited partnership or similar entity unless that presumption can be overcome.  Generally, only a single limited partner that is able to exercise substantive kick-out rights will consolidate.  The new standard will be effective for us beginning on January 1, 2016 and early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period.  The new standard must be applied using a modified retrospective approach by recording either a cumulative-effect adjustment to equity as of the beginning of the period of adoption or retrospectively to each period presented.  We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting the new standard on our consolidated financial statements.

Funds From Operations ("FFO")

Management believes that FFO is an appropriate measure of performance for equity REITs and computes this measure in accordance with the NAREIT definition of FFO (including any guidance that NAREIT releases with respect to the definition). Funds from operations is defined by NAREIT as net income (computed in accordance with GAAP), reduced by preferred dividends, excluding gains or losses from sale of previously depreciable real estate assets, impairment charges related to depreciable real estate and extraordinary items under GAAP, plus depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments to derive our pro rata share of FFO of consolidated and unconsolidated joint ventures.  Further, we do not adjust FFO to eliminate the effects of non-recurring charges. We believe that FFO is a meaningful supplemental measure of our operating performance because historical cost accounting for real estate assets in accordance with GAAP implicitly assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time, as reflected through depreciation and amortization expenses. However, since real estate values have historically risen or fallen with market and other conditions, many industry investors and analysts have considered presentation of operating results for real estate companies that use historical cost accounting to be insufficient. Thus, NAREIT created FFO as a supplemental measure of operating performance for REITs that excludes historical cost depreciation and amortization, among other items, from net income, as defined by GAAP. We believe that the use of FFO, combined with the required GAAP presentations, has been beneficial in improving the understanding of operating results of REITs among the investing public and making comparisons of operating results among such companies more meaningful. FFO as reported by us may not be comparable to FFO reported by other REITs that do not define the term in accordance with the current NAREIT definition. FFO does not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and is not an indication of cash available to fund cash needs. FFO should not be considered an alternative to net income as an indicator of our operating performance or as an alternative to cash flow as a measure of liquidity. FFO measures 100% of the operating performance of Parkway Properties LP's real estate properties in which Parkway Properties, Inc. owns an interest.

EBITDA

We believe that using EBITDA as a non-GAAP financial measure helps investors and our management analyze our ability to service debt and pay cash distributions. However, the material limitations associated with using EBITDA as a non-GAAP financial measure compared to cash flows provided by operating, investing and financing activities are that EBITDA does not reflect our historical cash expenditures or future cash requirements for working capital, capital expenditures or the cash required to make interest and principal payments on our outstanding debt. Although EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, we compensate for the limitations by only using EBITDA to supplement GAAP financial measures. Additionally, we believe that investors should consider EBITDA in conjunction with net income and the other required GAAP measures of our performance and liquidity to improve their understanding of our operating results and liquidity. EBITDA measures 100% of the operating performance of Parkway Properties LP's real estate properties in which Parkway Properties, Inc. owns an interest.

63



    
We view EBITDA primarily as a liquidity measure and, as such, the GAAP financial measure most directly comparable to it is cash flows provided by operating activities. Because EBITDA is not a measure of financial performance calculated in accordance with GAAP, it should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for operating income, net income, or cash flows provided by operating, investing and financing activities prepared in accordance with GAAP.  The following table reconciles cash flows provided by operating activities to EBITDA for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 (in thousands):

(1)
We define EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, as net income before interest, income taxes, depreciation, amortization, losses on early extinguishment of debt and other gains and losses.  EBITDA, as calculated by us, is not comparable to EBITDA reported by other REITs that do not define EBITDA exactly as we do.
(2)
Annualized EBITDA includes the implied annualized impact of any acquisition or disposition activity during the period.

Inflation

Inflation has not had a significant impact on us because of the relatively low inflation rate in our geographic areas of operation. Additionally, most of the leases require the customers to pay their pro rata share of operating expenses, including common area maintenance, real estate taxes, utilities and insurance, thereby reducing our exposure to increases in operating expenses resulting from inflation. Our leases typically have three to seven year terms, which may enable us to replace existing leases with new leases at market base rent, which may be higher or lower than the existing lease rate.

ITEM 7A.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

See information appearing under the caption "Liquidity" appearing in "Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations."

At December 31, 2014, total outstanding debt was $1.8 billion of which $132.0 million or 7.3% was variable rate debt. If market rates of interest on the variable rate debt fluctuate by 10% (or approximately 20 basis points), the change in interest expense on the variable rate debt would increase or decrease future earnings and cash flows by approximately $200,000 annually.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND STOCKHOLDERS
PARKWAY PROPERTIES, INC.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Parkway Properties, Inc. and subsidiaries (the "Company") as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, and the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss), changes in equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2014. Our audit also included the financial statement schedules listed in the Index at Item 15(a)(2). These financial statements and schedules are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and schedules based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company at December 31, 2014 and 2013, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2014, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Also, in our opinion, the related financial statement schedules, when considered in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole, present fairly in all material respects the information set forth therein.
As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company changed its reporting of discontinued operations as a result of the adoption of the amendments to the FASB Accounting Standards Codification resulting from Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-08, “Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205) and Property, Plant, and Equipment (Topic 360), Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity” effective January 1, 2014.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2014, based on criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013 Framework) and our report dated February 25, 2015 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

PARKWAY PROPERTIES, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2014

NOTE 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

Parkway Properties, Inc. (the “Company") is a fully integrated, self-administered and self-managed real estate investment trust ("REIT") specializing in the acquisition, ownership and management of quality office and parking properties in high-growth submarkets in the Sunbelt region of the United States.  At January 1, 2015, the Company owned or had an interest in a portfolio of 51 office and parking properties located in eight states with an aggregate of approximately 17.2 million square feet (unaudited) of leasable space. The Company offers fee-based real estate services through its wholly owned subsidiaries, which in total managed and/or leased approximately 6.0 million square feet (unaudited) for third-party property owners at January 1, 2015.  Unless otherwise indicated, all references to square feet represent net rentable area.

The Company is the sole general partner of Parkway Properties LP, (the "Operating Partnership" or "Parkway LP") and as of December 31, 2014, owned a 95.5% interest in the Operating Partnership. The remaining 4.5% interest consists of common units of limited partnership interest issued by the Operating Partnership to limited partners in exchange for contributions of properties to the Operating Partnership. As the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership, the Company has full and complete authority over the Operating Partnership’s day-to-day operations and management.

The accompanying financial statements are prepared following U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") and the requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC").

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its wholly owned subsidiaries and joint ventures in which the Company has a controlling interest. The other partners' equity interests in the consolidated joint ventures are reflected as noncontrolling interests in the consolidated financial statements. The Company also consolidates subsidiaries where the entity is a variable interest entity ("VIE") and it is the primary beneficiary and has the power to direct the activities of the VIE and has the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE. At December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company did not have any VIEs that required consolidation. All significant intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated in the accompanying financial statements.

The Company consolidates certain joint ventures where it exercises control over major operating and management decisions, or where the Company is the sole general partner and the limited partners do not possess kick-out rights or other substantive participating rights. The equity method of accounting is used for those joint ventures that do not meet the criteria for consolidation and where the Company does not control these joint ventures, but exercises significant influence. The cost method of accounting is used for investments in which the Company does not have significant influence. The investments are reviewed for impairment when indicators of impairment exist.

Business

The Company's operations are exclusively in the real estate industry, principally the operation, leasing, acquisition, development and ownership of office buildings.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Although the Company believes the assumptions and estimates made are reasonable and appropriate, as discussed in the applicable sections throughout these consolidated financial statements, different assumptions and estimates could materially impact reported results. The current economic environment has increased the degree of uncertainty inherent in these estimates and assumptions; therefore, changes in market conditions could impact the Company's future operating results. The Company's most significant estimates relate to impairments on real estate and other assets and purchase price allocations.




74



Real Estate Properties

Real estate properties are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation. Cost includes the carrying amount of the Company's investment plus any additional consideration paid, liabilities assumed, and improvements made subsequent to acquisition. Depreciation of buildings and building improvements is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Depreciation of tenant improvements, including personal property, is computed using the straight-line method over the lesser of useful life or the term of the lease involved. Maintenance and repair expenses are charged to expense as incurred.

Balances of major classes of depreciable assets (in thousands) and their respective estimated useful lives are:

Depreciation expense, excluding amounts recorded in discontinued operations, related to these assets of $102.2 million, $69.0 million, and $45.3 million was recognized in 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

The Company evaluates its real estate assets upon occurrence of significant adverse changes in its operations to assess whether any impairment indicators are present that affect the recovery of the carrying amount. The carrying amount includes the net book value of tangible and intangible assets and liabilities. Real estate assets are classified as held for sale or held and used. The Company classifies certain assets as held for sale based on management having the authority and intent of entering into commitments for sale transactions to close in the next twelve months. The Company considers an office and parking property as held for sale once it has executed a contract for sale, allowed the buyer to complete its due diligence review and received a substantial non-refundable deposit. Until a buyer has completed its due diligence review of the asset, necessary approvals have been received and substantive conditions to the buyer's obligation to perform have been satisfied, the Company does not consider a sale to be probable. When the Company identifies an asset as held for sale, it estimates the net realizable value of such asset and discontinues recording depreciation on the asset. The Company records assets held for sale at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. If the fair value of the asset net of estimated selling costs is less than the carrying amount, the Company records an impairment loss. With respect to assets classified as held and used, the Company recognizes an impairment loss if the carrying amount is not recoverable and exceeds the sum of undiscounted future cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the asset. Upon impairment, the Company recognizes an impairment loss to reduce the carrying value of the real estate asset to the estimate of its fair value. The cash flow and fair value estimates are based on assumptions about employing the asset for its remaining useful life. Factors considered in projecting future cash flows include, but are not limited to: existing leases, future leasing and terminations, market rental rates, capital improvements, tenant improvements, leasing commissions, inflation, discount rates, capitalization rates, and other known variables. This market information is considered a Level 3 input as defined by Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 820, "Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures," ("ASC 820").
 
The Company recognizes gains on sales of real estate at times and in amounts determined in accordance with the accounting guidance for sales of real estate. The guidance takes into account the terms of the transaction and any continuing involvement, including in the form of management, leasing of space or financial assistance associated with the properties. If the sales criteria for the full accrual method are not met, then the Company defers gain recognition and accounts for the transaction by applying the deposit, finance, installment or cost recovery methods, as appropriate.

During the year ended December 31, 2014, the Company recognized an impairment loss on real estate of $11.7 million in connection with Raymond James Tower in Memphis, Tennessee. During the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company recognized an impairment loss on real estate of $10.2 million in connection with Waterstone and Meridian in Atlanta, Georgia and Mesa Corporate Center in Phoenix, Arizona. During the year ended December 31, 2012, the Company recognized an impairment loss on real estate of $9.2 million in connection with two assets in Jackson, Mississippi and Columbia, South Carolina.

At December 31, 2014, the Company classified Raymond James Tower in Memphis, Tennessee and Honeywell in Houston, Texas as assets held for sale. At December 31, 2013, the Company classified Mesa Corporate Center in Phoenix, Arizona and the Woodbranch Building in Houston, Texas as held for sale.


75



Condominium Units

    The Company also consolidates its Murano residential condominium project which it controls. The Company's unaffiliated partner's interest is reflected on its consolidated balance sheets under the "Noncontrolling Interests" caption. The Company's partner has a stated ownership interest of 27%. Net proceeds from the project will be distributed, to the extent available, based on an order of preferences described in the partnership agreement. The Company may receive distributions, if any, in excess of its stated 73% ownership interest if certain return thresholds are met.

Purchase Price Allocation

The Company allocates the purchase price of real estate to tangible and intangible assets and liabilities based on fair values. Tangible assets consist of land, building, garage, building improvements and tenant improvements. Intangible assets and liabilities consist of the value of above and below market leases, lease costs, the value of in-place leases, and any value attributable to above or below market debt assumed with the acquisition.

The Company may engage independent third-party appraisers to perform the valuations used to determine the fair value of these identifiable tangible and intangible assets. These valuations and appraisals use commonly employed valuation techniques, such as discounted cash flow analyses. Factors considered in these analyses include an estimate of costs during hypothetical expected lease-up periods considering current market conditions and costs to execute similar leases. The Company also considers information obtained about each property as a result of its pre-acquisition due diligence, marketing and leasing activities in estimating the fair value of the tangible and intangible assets acquired. The Company includes real estate taxes, insurance and other operating expenses and estimates of lost rentals at market rates during the expected lease-up periods depending on specific local market conditions and depending on the type of property acquired. Additionally, the Company estimates costs to execute similar leases including leasing commissions, legal and other related expenses to the extent that such costs are not already incurred in connection with a new lease origination as part of the transaction.

The fair value of above or below market in-place lease values is the present value of the difference between the contractual amount to be paid pursuant to the in-place lease and the estimated current market lease rate expected over the remaining non-cancelable life of the lease. The capitalized above market lease values are amortized as a reduction of rental income over the remaining term of the respective leases. The capitalized below market lease values are amortized as an increase to rental income over the remaining term of the respective leases. Total amortization for above and below market leases, excluding amounts classified as discontinued operations, was a net increase (reduction) of rental income of $13.7 million, $(2.2) million and $(5.0) million for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

As of December 31, 2014, the remaining amortization of net (above) and below market leases is projected as a net increase (decrease) to rental income as follows (in thousands):

The fair value of in-place leases is the present value associated with re-leasing the in-place lease as if the property was vacant. Factors to be considered include estimates of costs during hypothetical expected lease-up periods considering current market conditions and costs to execute similar leases. In estimating costs, the Company includes estimates of lost rentals at market rates during the expected lease-up periods. The value of at market in-place leases is amortized as a lease cost amortization expense over the expected life of the lease. Total amortization expense for the value of in-place leases, excluding amounts classified as discontinued operations, was $51.8 million, $26.9 million, and $15.0 million for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

As of December 31, 2014, the remaining amortization expense for the value of in-place leases is projected as follows (in thousands):

A separate component of the fair value of in-place leases is identified for the lease costs. The fair value of lease costs represents the estimated commissions and legal fees paid in connection with the current leases in place. Lease costs are amortized over the non-cancelable terms of the respective leases as lease cost amortization expense.

In no event does the amortization period for intangible assets exceed the remaining depreciable life of the building. Should a customer terminate its lease, the unamortized portion of the tenant improvement, in-place lease value, lease cost and customer relationship intangibles would be charged to expense. Additionally, the unamortized portion of above market in-place leases would be recorded as a reduction to rental income and the below market in-place lease value would be recorded as an increase to rental income.

The Company calculates the fair value of mortgage notes payable by discounting the remaining contractual cash flows on each instrument at the current market rate for these borrowings.

Capitalization of Costs

Costs related to planning, developing, leasing and constructing a property, including costs of development personnel working directly on projects under development, are capitalized. In addition, the Company capitalizes interest to qualifying assets under development based on average accumulated expenditures outstanding during the period. In capitalizing interest to qualifying assets, the Company first uses the interest incurred on specific project debt, if any, and next uses the Company's weighted average interest rate for non-project specific debt. The Company also capitalizes certain costs of leasing personnel in connection with the completion of leasing arrangements.

Net Income (Loss) Per Common Share

Basic earnings per share ("EPS") is computed by dividing income (loss) attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the year. In arriving at net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders, preferred stock dividends are deducted. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if share equivalents such as employee stock options, restricted shares and deferred incentive share units were exercised or converted into common stock that then shared in the earnings of the Company.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

Accounts receivable are reduced by an allowance for amounts that the Company estimates to be uncollectible. The receivable balance is comprised primarily of rent and expense reimbursement income due from the customers. Management evaluates the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts considering such factors as the credit quality of the customers, delinquency of payment, historical trends and current economic conditions. The Company provides an allowance for doubtful accounts for customer balances that are over 90 days past due and for specific customer receivables for which collection is considered doubtful.

Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.



77



Restricted Cash

Restricted cash, which is included in receivables and other assets, primarily consists of security deposits held on behalf of the Company's tenants as well as capital improvements and real estate tax escrows required under certain loan agreements. There are restrictions on the Company's ability to withdraw these funds other than for their specified usage.

Noncontrolling Interest

A noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary is in most cases an ownership interest in the consolidated entity that should be reported as equity in the consolidated financial statements and separate from the parent company's equity. In addition, consolidated net income is required to be reported at amounts that include the amounts attributable to both the parent and the noncontrolling interest and the amount of consolidated net income attributable to the parent and the noncontrolling interest are required to be disclosed on the face of the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue from real estate rentals is recognized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the respective leases. The cumulative difference between lease revenue recognized under this method and contractual lease payment terms is recorded as straight-line rent receivable on the accompanying balance sheets. The straight-line rent adjustment increased revenue by $21.0 million, $14.6 million and $14.9 million in 2014, 2013, and 2012, respectively.

When the Company is the owner of the tenant improvements, the leased space is ready for its intended use when the tenant improvements are substantially completed, at which point revenue recognition begins. In limited instances, when the tenant is the owner of the customer improvements, straight-line rent is recognized when the tenant takes possession of the unimproved space.

The leases also typically provide for tenant reimbursement of a portion of common area maintenance, real estate taxes and other operating expenses.  Property operating cost recoveries from customers ("expense reimbursements") are recognized as revenue in the period in which the expenses are incurred. The computation of expense reimbursements is dependent on the provisions of individual customer leases. Most customers make monthly fixed payments of estimated expense reimbursements. The Company makes adjustments, positive or negative, to expense reimbursement income quarterly to adjust the recorded amounts to the Company's best estimate of the final property operating costs based on the most recent annual estimate. After the end of the calendar year, the Company computes each customer's final expense reimbursements and issues a bill or credit for the difference between the actual amount and the amounts billed monthly during the year. Differences between actual billed amounts and accrued amounts are considered immaterial.

Management company income represents market-based fees earned from providing management, construction, leasing, brokerage and acquisition services to unconsolidated joint ventures, related parties, and third parties. Management fee income is computed and recorded monthly in accordance with the terms set forth in the management service agreements. Leasing and brokerage commissions, as well as salary and administrative fees, are recognized pursuant to the terms of the agreements at the time underlying leases are signed, which is the point at which the earnings process is complete and collection of the fees is reasonably assured. Fees relating to the purchase or sale of property are recognized when the earnings process is complete and collection of the fees is reasonably assured, which usually occurs at closing. All fees on Company-owned properties and consolidated joint ventures are eliminated in consolidation. The Company recognizes its share of fees earned from unconsolidated joint ventures in management company income.

The Company has one high-rise condominium project. Under the provisions of FASB ASC 360-20, "Property, Plant and Equipment" subsection "Real Estate and Sales," revenue and costs for projects are recognized when all parties are bound by the terms of the contract, all consideration has been exchanged, any permanent financing for which the seller is responsible has been arranged and all conditions precedent to closing have been performed. This results in profit from the sale of condominium units recognized at closing. Revenue is recognized on the contract price of individual units. Total estimated costs are allocated to individual units which have closed on a relative value basis.

Investment in Unconsolidated Joint Ventures

The Company accounts for its investment in unconsolidated joint ventures under the equity method of accounting as the Company exercises significant influence, but does not maintain a controlling financial interest over these entities. These investments are recorded initially at cost and subsequently adjusted for cash contributions, distributions and equity in earnings (loss) of the

78



unconsolidated joint ventures. Equity in earnings (loss) in unconsolidated joint ventures is allocated based on ownership or economic interest in each joint venture.

The Company's investments in real estate joint ventures are reviewed for impairment periodically, and it records impairment charges when events or circumstances change indicating that a decline in the fair values below the carrying values has occurred and such decline is other-than-temporary. The ultimate realization of the investment in real estate joint ventures is dependent on a number of factors, including the performance of each investment and market conditions. No impairment charges related to the Company's investments in real estate joint ventures were recorded during the year ended December 31, 2014 or 2013.

Amortization of Debt Origination Costs and Leasing Costs

Debt origination costs are deferred and amortized using a method that approximates the effective interest method over the term of the loan. Leasing costs are deferred and amortized using the straight-line method over the term of the respective lease.

Loss on Extinguishment of Debt

When outstanding debt is extinguished, the Company records any prepayment premium and unamortized loan costs.

Derivative Financial Instruments

The Company recognizes all derivative instruments on the balance sheet at their fair value. Changes in the fair value of derivatives are recorded each period in current earnings or other comprehensive loss if a derivative is designated as part of a hedge transaction and, if it is, the type of hedge transaction. The ineffective portion of the hedge, if any, is immediately recognized in earnings.

Share-Based and Long-Term Compensation

Compensation expense, net of estimated forfeitures, for service-based awards is recognized over the expected vesting period of such awards. The total compensation expense for the long-term equity incentive awards is based upon the fair value of the shares on the grant date, adjusted for estimated forfeitures. Time-vesting restricted shares, restricted share units ("RSUs"), and deferred incentive share units are valued based on the New York Stock Exchange closing market price of the Company's common shares as of the date of grant. The grant date fair value for awards that are subject to performance-based vesting and market conditions, including profits interest units ("LTIP units"), performance-vesting RSUs, and long-term equity incentive awards, is determined using a simulation pricing model developed to specifically accommodate the unique features of the awards. The total compensation expense for stock options is estimated based on the fair value of the options as of the date of grant using the Black-Scholes model.

Income Taxes

The Company elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code, commencing with its taxable year ended December 31, 1997. To qualify as a REIT, the Company must meet a number of organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement that it currently distribute at least 90% of its adjusted taxable income to its stockholders. It is management's current intention to adhere to these requirements and maintain the Company's REIT status, and the Company was in compliance with all REIT requirements at December 31, 2014. As a REIT, the Company generally will not be subject to corporate level federal income tax on taxable income it distributes currently to its stockholders. If the Company fails to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, it will be subject to federal income taxes at regular corporate rates (including any applicable alternative minimum tax) and may not be able to qualify as a REIT for four subsequent taxable years. Even if the Company qualifies for taxation as a REIT, the Company may be subject to certain state and local taxes on its income and property, and to federal income and excise taxes on its undistributed taxable income. In addition, taxable income from non-REIT activities managed through taxable REIT subsidiaries (collectively, the "TRS") is subject to federal, state and local income taxes.

Restructuring Charges

Restructuring charges reflected in general and administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) relate primarily to one-time termination benefits. The Company recognizes these severance and other charges when the requirements of FASB ASC 420, "Exit or Disposal Cost Obligations," have been met regarding a plan of termination and when communication has been made to employees.


79



Fair Value Measurements

Level 1 fair value inputs are quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active, liquid and visible markets such as stock exchanges. Level 2 fair value inputs are observable information for similar assets or liabilities in active or inactive markets, and appropriately consider counterparty creditworthiness in the valuations. Level 3 fair value inputs reflect the Company's best estimate of inputs and assumptions market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability at the measurement date. These inputs are unobservable in the market and significant to the valuation estimate.

Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications have been made in the 2013 and 2012 consolidated financial statements to conform to the 2014 classifications with no impact on previously reported net income or equity.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Effective January 1, 2014, the Company adopted guidance issued by FASB Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2014-08, "Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity." This update amends the criteria for reporting discontinued operations to, among other things, raise the threshold for disposals to qualify as discontinued operations, and only disposals that represent a strategic shift in operations that is material will be presented as discontinued operations. This update is effective for interim and annual reporting periods, beginning after December 15, 2014, with early adoption permitted. The Company presents 2014 property sales and will present future property sales, to the extent they do not represent a strategic shift in operations, in the continuing operations section of the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) with the exception of those properties previously included as held for sale at December 31, 2013. The Company's 2014 sales of the Woodbranch Building and Mesa Corporate Center are included in discontinued operations for the year ended December 31, 2014 as these properties were previously classified as held for sale at December 31, 2013. The Company's 2014 sales of the Schlumberger Building and 525 North Tryon are included in the continuing operations section of the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) as they were not previously classified as held for sale as of December 31, 2013 and do not qualify for inclusion in discontinued operations as they do not represent a strategic shift in the Company's operations.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers." This update was initiated in a joint project between the FASB and the International Accounting Standards Board to clarify the principles for recognizing revenue and to develop a common revenue standard for GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards that would: (1) remove inconsistencies and weaknesses in revenue requirements; (2) provide a more robust framework for addressing revenue issues; (3) improve comparability of revenue recognition practices across entities, industries, jurisdictions, and capital markets; (4) provide more useful information to users of financial statements through improved disclosure requirements; and (5) simplify the preparation of financial statements by reducing the number of requirements to which an entity must refer. The core principle of the guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods and services. This update is effective for interim and annual reporting periods, beginning after December 15, 2016, and early application is not permitted. The standard allows for either "full retrospective" adoption, meaning the standard is applied to all of the periods presented, or "modified retrospective" adoption, meaning the standard is applied only to the most recent period presented in the financial statements. The Company is currently assessing this guidance for future implementation.

In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15, "Presentation of Financial Statements - Going Concern." The amendments in this update provide guidance in GAAP about management's responsibilities to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity's ability to continue as a going concern and to provide related footnote disclosures. The main provision of the amendments are for an entity's management, in connection with the preparation of financial statements, to evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the entity's ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued. Management's evaluation should be based on relevant conditions and events that are known or reasonably knowable at the date the financial statements are issued. When management identifies conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about an entity's ability to continue as a going concern, the entity should disclose information that enables users of the financial statements to understand all of the following: (1) principal conditions or events that raised substantial doubt about the entity's ability to continue as a going concern (before consideration of management's plans); (2) management's evaluation of the significance of those conditions or events in relation to the entity's ability to meet its obligations; and (3) management's plans that alleviated substantial doubt about the entity's ability to continue as a going concern or management's plans that are intended to mitigate the conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about the entity's

80



ability to continue as a going concern. The amendments in this update are effective for interim and annual reporting periods after December 15, 2016 and early application is permitted. The Company is currently assessing this guidance for future implementation.

In January 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-01, "Income Statement - Extraordinary and Unusual Items (Subtopic 225-20): Simplifying Income Statement Presentation by Eliminating the Concept of Extraordinary Items", (“ASU 2015-01”). ASU 2015-01 eliminates the concept of an extraordinary item from GAAP. As a result, an entity will no longer be required to segregate extraordinary items from the results of ordinary operations, to separately present an extraordinary item on its income statement, net of tax, after income from continuing operations or to disclose income taxes and earnings-per-share data applicable to an extraordinary item. However, ASU 2015-01 will still retain the presentation and disclosure guidance for items that are unusual in nature and occur infrequently. ASU 2015-01 will be effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning January 1, 2016 and subsequent interim periods. The adoption of ASU 2015-015 is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In February 2015, the FASB issued new consolidation guidance which makes changes to both the variable interest model and the voting model.  The new standard specifically eliminates the presumption in the current voting model that a general partner controls a limited partnership or similar entity unless that presumption can be overcome.  Generally, only a single limited partner that is able to exercise substantive kick-out rights will consolidate.  The new standard will be effective for the Company beginning on January 1, 2016 and early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period.  The new standard must be applied using a modified retrospective approach by recording either a cumulative-effect adjustment to equity as of the beginning of the period of adoption or retrospectively to each period presented.  The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting the new standard on its consolidated financial statements.

Note 2 - Investment in Office and Parking Properties

Included in investment in office and parking properties at December 31, 2014 are 49 office and parking properties located in eight states with an aggregate of 16.5 million square feet (unaudited) of leasable space.

On January 30, 2014, the Company completed the acquisition of the JTB Center, a complex of three office buildings located in the Deerwood submarket of Jacksonville, Florida, for a gross purchase price of $33.3 million. The JTB Center was unencumbered by secured indebtedness and financed through available cash.

On April 10, 2014, the Company completed the acquisition of Courvoisier Centre, a complex of two office buildings located in the Brickell submarket of Miami, Florida, for a gross purchase price of $145.8 million.

On April 14, 2014, the Company commenced construction of Hayden Ferry Lakeside III, a planned office development in the Tempe submarket of Phoenix, Arizona. The Operating Partnership entered into an amendment to the partnership agreement of Parkway Properties Office Fund II L.P. ("Fund II") to, among other things, authorize the Hayden Ferry Lakeside III development

81



and authorize the general partner of Fund II to transfer an interest in the ownership of Hayden Ferry Lakeside III, a subsidiary of Fund II, to the Operating Partnership for $2.0 million. The Company now owns a 70% indirect controlling interest in Hayden Ferry Lakeside III. Costs related to planning, developing, leasing and constructing the property, including costs of development personnel working directly on projects under development, are capitalized. For the year ended December 31, 2014, development costs incurred totaled approximately $24.0 million. On July 2, 2014, Fund II closed on a construction loan secured by Hayden Ferry Lakeside III. See "Note 8—Capital and Financing Transactions—Mortgage Notes Payable" for additional details.

On April 14, 2014, the Company completed the acquisition of One Orlando Centre, an office building located in the central business district of Orlando, Florida, for a gross purchase price of $55.1 million. The Company made an $8.0 million equity investment that will be held in lender reserve accounts to fund the leasing and repositioning of the asset. As part of the purchase price, the Company paid $1.1 million to acquire its 100% interest in the property and simultaneously with the equity investment, the existing $68.3 million first mortgage note secured by the property was restructured into a new $54.0 million first mortgage and a $15.3 million subordinated note. See "Note 8—Capital and Financing Transactions—Mortgage Notes Payable" for additional details.

On July 3, 2014, the Company completed the acquisition of Millenia Park One, an office building located in the Millenia submarket of Orlando, Florida, for a gross purchase price of $25.5 million.

The total purchase price for the note, which was previously under special servicer oversight, was approximately $47.0 million. The note purchase was funded with borrowings under the Company's senior unsecured revolving credit facility. On August 19, 2014, the Company took ownership of The Forum at West Paces with a deed in lieu of foreclosure. 

On November 17, 2014, the Company and The California State Teachers' Retirement System ("CalSTRS") terminated their joint venture in Austin, Texas. As part of the agreement, the Company acquired CalSTRS' 60% interest in San Jacinto Center and One Congress Plaza, resulting in 100% ownership of these two assets, and transferred its 40% interest in Frost Bank Tower, 300 West 6th Street and One American Center to CalSTRS. The fair value of the Company's equity interest at November 17, 2014 was $124.7 million, which was determined using Level 2 inputs based on the fair values negotiated between the Company and CalSTRS. In connection with this transaction, the Company received net proceeds of approximately $43.6 million from CalSTRS and recognized a $52.8 million remeasurement gain, which was calculated as the difference between the fair value of the equity interest and the Company's basis in the investment in joint venture, and which is included in gain on sale of real estate in the Company's 2014 consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss).

On December 9, 2014, the Company acquired Corporate Center I, Corporate Center II and Corporate Center III, located in the Westshore submarket of Tampa, Florida, for a gross purchase price of $240.1 million.

On March 7, 2013, the Company purchased two office complexes located in the Deerwood submarket of Jacksonville, Florida (the "Deerwood Portfolio") for a gross purchase price of $130.0 million. The purchase of these properties was financed with a mortgage loan secured by the properties in the aggregate amount of $84.5 million and borrowings under the Company's senior unsecured revolving credit facility. The mortgage loan has a maturity date of April 1, 2023 and a fixed interest rate of 3.9%.

On August 19, 2013, the Company purchased approximately six acres of land available for development located in Tampa, Florida for a purchase price of $2.9 million.

On August 28, 2013, the Company purchased approximately one acre of land available for development located in Tempe, Arizona for a purchase price of $1.2 million. This land is adjacent to the Company's Hayden Ferry Lakeside and Tempe Gateway assets.

On December 6, 2013, the Company acquired Lincoln Place, an office building located in the South Beach submarket of Miami, Florida. The consideration for the transaction was the assumption of the existing first mortgage loan on the property and the issuance of 900,000 common units in the Operating Partnership. The loan secured by Lincoln Place has a current outstanding balance of approximately $48.7 million, a fixed interest rate of 5.9% and a maturity date of June 2016.

On December 19, 2013, the Company completed the merger transactions contemplated by the agreement and plan of merger, dated as of September 4, 2013 (the "Merger Agreement"), by and among the Company, the Operating Partnership, PKY Masters, LP, a wholly owned subsidiary of Parkway LP ("Merger Sub"), Thomas Properties Group, Inc. ("TPGI") and Thomas

83



Properties Group, L.P. ("TPG LP"). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, TPGI merged with and into the Company, with the Company continuing as the surviving corporation (the "Parent Merger"), and Thomas Properties Group, L.P. ("TPG LP") merged with and into Merger Sub, a wholly owned subsidiary of Parkway LP, with TPG LP continuing as the surviving entity and an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Parkway LP (the "Partnership Merger" and, together with the Parent Merger, the "Mergers"). Immediately following the closing of the Mergers, the joint venture interests the Company acquired in One Commerce Square and Two Commerce Square, two office towers located in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania were redeemed by the joint ventures that own the respective properties, and the Company ceased to own any interest in those properties. The Company received net proceeds of approximately $71.8 million in the redemption transactions, which were funded by Brandywine Operating Partnership, L.P., TPGI’s partner in each of the joint ventures. In addition, on December 19, 2013, immediately following the completion of the Mergers, the Company sold Four Points Centre, consisting of two office buildings and a contiguous parcel of land located in Austin, Texas, to Brandywine Operating Partnership, L.P. for a gross sale price of $47.3 million, of which the Company received net proceeds of approximately $21.7 million.

On April 10, 2012, the Company transferred its rights, title and interest in the B participation piece (the "B piece") of a first mortgage loan secured by an office building in Dallas, Texas known as 2100 Ross. The B piece was purchased at an original cost of $6.9 million in November 2007. The B piece was originated by Wachovia Bank, N.A., a Wells Fargo Company, and had a face value of $10.0 million, a stated coupon rate of 6.1% and a scheduled maturity in May 2012. During 2011, the Company recorded a non-cash impairment loss on the mortgage loan in the amount of $9.2 million, thereby reducing its investment in the mortgage loan to zero. Under the terms of the transfer, the Company is entitled to certain payments if the transferee is successful in obtaining ownership of 2100 Ross. During the third quarter of 2012, the transferee successfully obtained ownership of 2100 Ross and as a result the Company received a $500,000 payment, which is classified as recovery of losses on a mortgage loan receivable on the Company's consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).

On June 3, 2013, the Company purchased an approximate 75% interest in the US Airways Building, an office property located in the Tempe submarket of Phoenix, Arizona, for a purchase price of $41.8 million. At closing, a subsidiary of the Company issued a $3.5 million mortgage loan to an affiliate of US Airways, which is secured by the building. The mortgage loan carries a fixed interest rate of 3.0% and matures in December 2016. This office building is adjacent to the Company's Hayden Ferry Lakeside and Tempe Gateway assets and shares a parking garage with Tempe Gateway. The property is the headquarters for US Airways, which has leased 100% of the building through April 2024. US Airways has a termination option on December 31, 2016 or December 31, 2021 with 12 months prior notice. US Airways is also the owner of the remaining approximate 25% in the building.

On November 5, 2013, the Company and its joint venture partner foreclosed and took ownership of 7000 Central Park, an office building located in the Central Perimeter of Atlanta, Georgia. The Company previously acquired a 40% common equity interest in a mortgage note secured by the asset for approximately $45.0 million, comprised of an investment of approximately $37.0 million for a preferred equity interest in the joint venture that acquired the note and an investment of approximately $8.0 million for a 40% common equity interest. On December 13, 2013, the Company and its joint venture partner placed secured financing on the asset in the amount of $30.0 million, the net proceeds of which were used to repay a portion of the Company’s initial preferred equity investment, reducing the preferred equity interest to approximately $7.6 million. The loan has a floating interest rate based on the one-month LIBOR rate plus a spread of 180 basis points, which represents an initial aggregate interest rate of 1.97%. The joint venture also purchased an interest rate hedge that caps LIBOR at 1.75% through December 2016 for the full amount of the loan. The loan has a maturity date of December 2016.

On December 19, 2013, the Company acquired TPGI's interest in the Austin Joint Venture in connection with the Mergers. The Company and Madison International Realty ("Madison") owned a 50% interest in the joint venture with CalSTRS, of which the Company's ownership interest is 33%. The Austin Joint Venture owned the following properties: San Jacinto Center; Frost Bank Tower; One Congress Plaza; One American Center; and 300 West 6th Street. The cost of the Austin Joint Venture is adjusted to recognize the Company’s interest in the Austin Joint Venture’s earnings or losses. The difference between (a) The Company’s ownership percentage in the Austin Joint Venture multiplied by its earnings and (b) the amount of the Company’s equity in earnings of the Austin Joint Venture as reflected in the financial statements relates to the amortization or accretion of purchase accounting adjustments made at the time of the Mergers.

On January 24, 2014, pursuant to a put right held by Madison, the Company purchased Madison’s approximately 17% interest in the CalSTRS joint venture for a purchase price of approximately $41.5 million. On February 10, 2014, pursuant to an agreement entered into between CalSTRS and the Company, CalSTRS exercised an option to purchase 60% of Madison's former interest on the same terms as the Company for approximately $24.9 million. After giving effect to these transactions, the Company has a 40% interest in the CalSTRS joint venture and the Austin properties, with CalSTRS owning the remaining 60%.

On November 17, 2014, the Company terminated the Austin Joint Venture. As part of the agreement, the Company acquired CalSTRS' 60% interest in San Jacinto Center and One Congress Plaza, resulting in 100% ownership of two assets, and transferred the Company's 40% interest in Frost Bank Tower, 300 West 6th Street and One American Center to CalSTRS. In connection with this transaction, the Company received net proceeds of approximately $43.6 million from CalSTRS and recognized a $52.8 million gain in 2014.

Note 7 - Management Contract Intangibles, Net

In 2011, as part of the Company's combination with Eola Capital, LLC ("Eola"), the Company purchased the management contracts associated with Eola's property management business. At the purchase date, the contracts were valued by an independent appraiser at $51.8 million. The value of the management contracts is based on the sum of the present value of future cash flows attributable to the management contracts, in addition to the value of tax savings as a result of the amortization of intangible assets.

During 2012, the Company evaluated certain qualitative factors and determined that it was necessary to apply the two-step quantitative impairment test under ASU No. 2011-08, "Intangibles—Goodwill and Other (Topic 350), Testing Goodwill for Impairment." During this process the Company determined that the management contracts were impaired due to the fair value of the management contracts being estimated at $19.0 million as compared to the carrying amount of $46.1 million. As a result, the Company recorded a $42.0 million non-cash impairment loss, net of deferred tax liability, associated with the Company's investment in management contracts and goodwill.

The Company assumed a management contract as part of the Company's merger with TPGI. At December 19, 2013, the date of the Mergers, the contract was valued by an independent appraiser at $1.8 million.

During the year ended December 31, 2014, the Company determined that the undiscounted cash flows indicated that the carrying amounts of the Eola contracts were not expected to be recovered and, as a result, the Company recorded a $4.8 million pre-tax non-cash impairment loss related to these management contracts which resulted in the entire remaining balance of the Eola contracts being written off as of December 31, 2014.

The Amended Agreement amended, restated and consolidated the agreements governing the Company's prior $215.0 million senior unsecured revolving credit facility, $125.0 million unsecured term loan and $120.0 million unsecured term loan. The maturity date of the senior unsecured revolving credit facility was extended to March 30, 2018, with an additional one-year extension option, and the $250.0 million five-year unsecured term loan and $100.0 million seven-year unsecured term loan have maturity dates of March 29, 2019 and March 31, 2021, respectively.

The senior unsecured revolving credit facility bears interest at LIBOR plus an applicable margin which ranges from 1.40% to 2.00% based on the Company's overall leverage, and is currently 1.40% resulting in an all-in rate of 1.56%. The $250.0 million five-year unsecured term loan bears interest at LIBOR plus an applicable margin which ranges from 1.35% to 1.90% based on the Company's overall leverage, and is currently 1.35% resulting in a weighted average all-in rate of 2.51%, after giving effect to the floating-to-fixed-rate interest rate swaps. The $100.0 million seven-year unsecured term loan bears interest at LIBOR plus an applicable margin which ranges from 1.75% to 2.30% based on the Company's overall leverage, and is currently 1.75%, resulting in an all-in rate of 4.31%, after accounting for the floating-to-fixed-rate interest rate swap. For a discussion of interest rate swaps entered into in connection with the Company's unsecured term loans and senior unsecured revolving credit facility, see " —Interest Rate Swaps."

The $100.0 million seven-year unsecured term loan tranche had a delayed-draw feature which allowed the Company to draw all or a portion of the $100.0 million commitment in not more than two draws over a 12-month period. The Company drew the full amount on April 8, 2014 and simultaneously repaid in full the first mortgage debt secured by the Bank of America Center in Orlando, Florida, which had an outstanding balance of $33.9 million. The Company recognized a loss on extinguishment of debt of $339,000 on the repayment of the Bank of America Center mortgage.

Additionally, effective April 1, 2014, the Company amended its $10.0 million unsecured working capital credit facility under terms and conditions similar to the Amended Agreement.

On February 21, 2013, the Company obtained an $80.0 million first mortgage loan secured by Phoenix Tower, an office property located in the Greenway Plaza submarket of Houston, Texas. The mortgage loan bears interest at a fixed rate of 3.9% and matures on March 1, 2023. Payments of interest only are due on the loan for two years, after which the principal amount of the loan begins amortizing over a 25-year period until maturity. The loan is pre-payable after March 1, 2015, but any such prepayment is subject to a yield maintenance premium. The agreement governing the mortgage loan contains customary rights of the lender to accelerate the loan upon, among other things, a payment default or if certain representations and warranties made by the borrower are untrue.

On March 7, 2013, simultaneous with the purchase of the Deerwood Portfolio, the Company obtained an $84.5 million first mortgage loan, which is secured by the office properties in the portfolio. The mortgage loan bears interest at a fixed rate of 3.9% and matures on April 1, 2023. Payments of interest only are due on the loan for three years, after which the principal amount of the loan begins amortizing over a 30-year period until maturity. The loan is pre-payable after May 1, 2015, but any such prepayment is subject to a yield maintenance premium. The agreement governing the mortgage loan contains customary rights of the lender to accelerate the loan upon, among other things, a payment default or if certain representations and warranties made by the borrower are untrue.

On May 31, 2013, the Company modified the existing $22.5 million first mortgage loan secured by Corporate Center IV, an office property located in the Westshore submarket of Tampa, Florida. The modified first mortgage loan has a principal balance of $36.0 million, a weighted average fixed interest rate of 4.6%, an initial 24 months interest only period and a maturity date of April 8, 2019. In conjunction with the modification, the Company executed a floating-to-fixed interest rate swap fixing the interest rate on the additional $13.5 million in loan proceeds at 3.3%.

On June 28, 2013, the Company modified the existing mortgage loan secured by Hayden Ferry II, an office property located in the Tempe submarket of Phoenix, Arizona. The loan modification eliminates quarterly principal payments of $625,000.  As a result of the modification, loan payments are now interest-only through February 2015.  The mortgage loan bears interest at LIBOR plus an applicable spread which ranges from 250 to 350 basis points. The Company entered into a floating-to-fixed interest rate swap that fixed LIBOR on the original loan at 1.5% through January 2018 and resulted in an all-in interest rate of 4.7% on December 31, 2013. Effective August 1, 2013, the Company entered into a second floating-to-fixed interest rate swap which fixes LIBOR at 1.7% through January 2018 on the additional notional amount of $625,000 associated with the loan modification, resulting in an all-in interest rate of 4.9%.  This loan is cross-defaulted with Hayden Ferry I, IV and V.

On December 6, 2013, in connection with the purchase of Lincoln Place, the Company assumed a mortgage loan with a balance of $49.3 million at December 31, 2013, with a fixed interest rate of 5.9% and a maturity date of June 11, 2016.

On December 19, 2013, in connection with the Mergers, the Company assumed $321.0 million of existing first mortgage loans that are secured by the properties. The mortgage loan for CityWestPlace buildings I and II carries a balance of $117.7 million at December 31, 2013, with a fixed interest rate of 6.2% and a maturity date of July 6, 2016.

On April 8, 2014, the Company repaid the first mortgage debt secured by Bank of America Center and terminated the related $33.9 million floating-to-fixed interest rate swap. The terminated $33.9 million swap had a liability value of $1.9 million which was rolled into the pricing set for the new $100.0 million swap.

On April 14, 2014, the Company purchased One Orlando Centre in Orlando, Florida, and simultaneously restructured the existing first mortgage loan secured by the property. The existing $68.3 million first mortgage note was restructured into a new $54.0 million first mortgage note and a $15.3 million subordinated note. Upon the sale or recapitalization of the property, proceeds are to be distributed first to the lender up to the amount of outstanding principal of the first mortgage note; second, to the Company up to its equity investment; third, to the Company until it receives a 12% annual return on its equity investment; fourth, 60% to the Company and 40% to the lender until the subordinated note is repaid in full; and fifth, to the Company at 100%. At the acquisition date, and as of December 31, 2014, the fair value of the subordinated note was zero.

On July 2, 2014, Fund II closed on a construction loan secured by the Hayden Ferry Lakeside III development in the Tempe submarket of Phoenix, Arizona, for $43.0 million, or 62.5% of the total estimated cost of the development, which will be funded subsequent to Fund II's and the Company's equity investment in the development. The loan is initially a 35% recourse loan to Fund II that will be reduced to non-recourse upon stabilization of the property. The loan is cross-collateralized with Fund II's Hayden Ferry Lakeside I, Hayden Ferry Lakeside II, Hayden Ferry Lakeside IV and the adjacent parking garage. The loan matures on July 25, 2018, is interest-only through maturity, and has an interest rate of one-month LIBOR plus 1.80% which decreases to 1.60% upon stabilization. As of December 31, 2014, the balance of the construction loan payable was approximately $481,000.

On November 17, 2014, the Company terminated the Austin Joint Venture. As part of the agreement, the Company acquired CalSTRS' 60% interest in One Congress Plaza and San Jacinto Center, resulting in 100% ownership of these two assets. As a result the Company assumed a mortgage loan with a balance of $128.0 million at December 31, 2014, with a fixed interest rate of 3.2% and a maturity date of June 11, 2017 for One Congress Plaza, and assumed a mortgage loan with a balance of $101.0 million at December 31, 2014, with a fixed interest rate of 3.2% and a maturity date of June 11, 2017 for San Jacinto Center.

On December 31, 2014, the Company extinguished the mortgage loan associated with Raymond James Tower in Memphis, Tennessee with a principal balance of $7.9 million. The Company incurred a loss on extinguishment of debt of approximately $2.1 million as part of the repayment.

Interest Rate Swaps

The Company’s objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to add stability to interest expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements. To accomplish this objective, the Company primarily uses interest rate swaps and caps as part of its interest rate risk management strategy. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Company making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount.  Interest rate caps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable amounts from a counterparty if interest rates rise above the strike rate on the contract in exchange for an upfront premium.

The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges is recorded in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income and is subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period that the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. During 2014, such derivatives were used to hedge the variable cash flows associated with variable-rate debt. The ineffective portion of the change in fair value of the derivatives is recognized directly in earnings. During the year ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company recorded $32,000 and $127,000, respectively, of hedge ineffectiveness in earnings attributable to the redesignation of several interest rate swaps.

Amounts reported in accumulated other comprehensive income related to derivatives will be reclassified to interest expense as interest payments are made on the Company’s variable-rate debt. During 2015, the Company estimates that an additional $6.9 million will be reclassified as an increase to interest expense. During the year ended December 31, 2014, the Company accelerated the reclassification of amounts in other comprehensive income to earnings as a result of the hedged forecasted transactions becoming probable not to occur. The accelerated amounts were a loss of $180,000.

On March 25, 2013, in connection with the purchase of the Teacher Retirement System of Texas' ("TRST") interest in the Tampa Fund II Assets, the Company assumed the remaining 70% of two interest rate swaps, which have a total notional amount of $34.6 million.

On May 31, 2013, the Company executed a floating-to-fixed interest rate swap for a notional amount of $13.5 million, associated with the first mortgage loan secured by Corporate Center IV in Tampa, Florida, which fixes LIBOR at 3.3% through October 8, 2018.

On June 12, 2013, the Company executed a floating-to-fixed interest rate swap for a notional amount of $120.0 million, associated with its $120.0 million unsecured term loan that fixes LIBOR at 1.6% for five years, which resulted in an initial all-in interest rate of 3.3%. The interest rate swap matures June 11, 2018.

On June 28, 2013, the Company modified the existing mortgage loan secured by Hayden Ferry II, an office property located in the Tempe submarket of Phoenix, Arizona. The loan modification eliminates quarterly principal payments of $625,000. As a result of the modification, loan payments are now interest-only through February 2015. The mortgage loan bears interest at LIBOR plus an applicable spread which ranges from 250 to 350 basis points. The Company entered into a floating-to-fixed interest rate swap which fixed LIBOR on the original loan at 1.5% through January 2018. Effective August 1, 2013, the Company entered into a second floating-to-fixed interest rate swap which fixes LIBOR at 1.7% through January 2018 on the additional notional amount associated with the loan modification. This loan is cross-defaulted with Hayden Ferry I, IV and V.

Effective June 12, 2013, the Company entered into a floating-to-fixed interest rate swap related to one-month LIBOR with a value of $120.0 million, locking LIBOR at 1.6% through June 11, 2018. On April 1, 2014, the Company dedesignated two of its existing floating-to-fixed interest rate swaps totaling $125.0 million that were previously associated with the $125.0 million five-year unsecured term loan and redesignated the swaps as a cash flow hedge of the risk of changes in cash flows attributable to changes in the benchmark interest rate for one-month LIBOR related to indexed interest payments made each month, regardless of the specific debt agreement from which they may flow. The two swaps totaling $125.0 million lock LIBOR at 0.7% through September 27, 2017. Additionally, on the same date, the Company entered into a new $5.0 million floating-to-fixed interest rate swap attributable to one-month LIBOR indexed interest payments made each month. The new $5.0 million swap has a fixed rate of 1.7%, an effective date of April 1, 2014 and matures on April 1, 2019.

96



The Company also terminated the $33.9 million swap designated to the Bank of America Center first mortgage. The net impact of the changes made to the existing swaps during the second quarter of 2014 resulted in a one-time increase in interest expense of approximately $121,000.

On April 1, 2014, the Company entered into a new $100.0 million floating-to-fixed interest rate swap attributable to one-month LIBOR indexed interest payments made each month. The $100.0 million swap has a fixed rate of 2.6%, an effective date of April 1, 2014 and a maturity date of March 31, 2021. The Company entered into this interest rate swap in connection with its $100.0 million seven-year unsecured term loan that bears interest at LIBOR plus the applicable margin which ranges from 1.75% to 2.30% based on the Company's overall leverage. The current spread associated with the loan is 1.75% resulting in an all-in rate of 4.31%.

The Company designated these swaps as cash flow hedges of the variable interest payments associated with the mortgage loans.

Note 9 - Fair Values of Financial Instruments

FASB ASC 820, "Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures" (“ASC 820”), defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. ASC 820 also provides guidance for using fair value to measure financial assets and liabilities. The Codification requires disclosure of the level within the fair value hierarchy in which the fair value measurements fall, including measurements using quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1), quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active (Level 2), and significant valuation assumptions that are not readily observable in the market (Level 3).

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis were as follows (in thousands):

The methods and assumptions used to estimate fair value for each class of financial asset or liability are discussed below:

Cash and cash equivalents:  The carrying amounts for cash and cash equivalents approximate fair value.

Mortgage notes payable:  The fair value of mortgage notes payable is estimated using discounted cash flow analysis, based on the Company's current incremental borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements. This information is considered a Level 2 input as defined by ASC 820.

Mortgage loan receivable: The carrying amount for the mortgage loan approximates fair value.

Notes payable to banks:  The fair value of the Company's notes payable to banks is estimated by discounting expected cash flows at current market rates. This information is considered a Level 2 input as defined by ASC 820.

Interest rate swap agreements:  The fair value of the interest rate swaps is determined by estimating the expected cash flows over the life of the swap using the mid-market rate and price environment as of the last trading day of the reporting period. This information is considered a Level 2 input as defined by ASC 820.

Non-financial assets and liabilities recorded at fair value on a non-recurring basis include the following: (1) non-financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value in a business combination; (2) impairment or disposal of long-lived assets measured at fair value; and (3) equity method investments or cost method investments measured at fair value due to an impairment. The fair values assigned to the Company's purchase price allocations utilize Level 2 and Level 3 inputs as defined by ASC 820. The fair value assigned to the long-lived assets for which there was impairment recorded utilize Level 2 inputs as defined by ASC 820.

Restructuring charges reflected in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) relate primarily to one-time termination benefits. The Company recognizes these severance and other charges when the requirements of FASB ASC 420, "Exit or Disposal Cost Obligations," have been met regarding a plan of termination and when communication has been made to employees. During the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company recorded $1.6 million and $4.7 million, respectively, of restructuring charges in general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) related primarily to severance costs associated with the departure of management and other personnel as a result of the Company's closing of its Jackson, Mississippi office. Total cumulative restructuring costs expected to be incurred include approximately $18.1 million of severance costs associated with the merger.

Note 12 - Stockholders' Equity

Preferred Stock

In June 2003, the Company sold 2.4 million shares of 8.0% Series D Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock ("Series D Preferred Stock") with net proceeds to the Company of approximately $58.0 million. On August 12, 2010, the Company issued an additional 1.97 million shares of its Series D Preferred Stock at a price of $23.757 per share, equating to a yield of 8.5% (excluding accrued dividends). On May 18, 2011, the Company issued approximately 1.0 million additional shares of its Series D Preferred Stock to an institutional investor at a price of $25.00 per share, equating to a yield of 8.0%, and the Company used the net proceeds of approximately $26.0 million to fund the combination with Eola and the Company's share of equity contributions to purchase Fund II office and parking properties. The Series D Preferred Stock had no stated maturity, sinking fund or mandatory redemption and was not convertible into any other securities of the Company. At December 31, 2012, the Company had a total of 5.4 million shares of Series D Preferred Stock outstanding, with a $25 liquidation value per share, and the shares were redeemable at the option of the Company at any time upon proper notice.  





99



On April 25, 2013, the Company redeemed all of its outstanding Series D Preferred Stock. The Company paid $136.3 million to redeem the preferred shares and incurred a charge during the second quarter 2013 of approximately $6.6 million, which represents the difference between the costs associated with the issuances, including the price at which such shares were paid, and the redemption price. The Company declared dividends of $0.63 and $2.00 per share for the Series D Preferred stock for 2013 and 2012, respectively.

On May 3, 2012, the Company entered into the Purchase Agreement, by and among the Company and TPG VI Pantera Holdings, L.P.

During the year ended December 31, 2012, the Company issued an additional 6,666 shares of Series E Preferred Stock and 11,733 shares of common stock to TPG Pantera in lieu of director's fees and paid approximately $5.0 million and $1.0 million in dividends on common stock and Series E Preferred Stock, respectively, to TPG Pantera.

At a special meeting of stockholders held on July 31, 2012, the stockholders approved, among other things, the right to convert, at the option of the Company or the holders, shares of the Series E Preferred Stock into shares of the Company's common stock.

Fund II, a $750.0 million discretionary fund, was formed on May 14, 2008 and was fully invested at February 10, 2012. Fund II was structured such that TRST as a 70% investor and the Company as a 30% investor in the fund, with an original target capital structure of approximately $375.0 million of equity capital and $375.0 million of non-recourse, fixed-rate first mortgage debt. Fund II acquired 13 properties in Atlanta, Georgia; Charlotte, North Carolina; Phoenix, Arizona; Jacksonville, Orlando, and Tampa, Florida; and Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. In August 2012, Fund II increased its investment capacity by $20.0 million to purchase Hayden Ferry III, IV and V, a 2,500 space parking garage, an office property and a vacant parcel of development land, all adjacent to Hayden Ferry I and Hayden Ferry II in Phoenix, Arizona. In August 2013, Fund II expanded its investment guidelines solely for the purpose of authorizing the purchase of a parcel of land available for development in Tempe, Arizona. In April 2014, Fund II authorized the development of Hayden Ferry Lakeside III, as well as the transfer of an interest in the owner of Hayden Ferry Lakeside III, a subsidiary of Fund II, to the Operating Partnership, such that the Company owns a 70% indirect interest in Hayden Ferry Lakeside III.




101



The Company serves as the general partner of Fund II and provides asset management, property management, leasing and construction management services to the fund, for which it is paid fees. Cash is distributed by Fund II pro rata to each partner until a 9% annual cumulative preferred return is received and invested capital is returned.  Thereafter, 56% will be distributed to TRST and 44% to the Company. The term of Fund II is seven years from the date the fund was fully invested, or until February 2019, with provisions to extend the term for two additional one-year periods at the Company's discretion.

On March 25, 2013, the Company purchased TRST's 70% interest in the Tampa Fund II Assets, three office properties located in the Westshore submarket of Tampa, Florida, giving us a 100% ownership of the property. The Company's purchase price for TRST's 70% interest in the Tampa Fund II Assets was $97.5 million, based on an agreed-upon gross valuation of $139.3 million. Simultaneously with closing, the Company assumed $40.7 million of existing mortgage indebtedness that is secured by the properties, which represents TRST's 70% share of the approximately $58.1 million of existing mortgage indebtedness. The three office properties include Corporate Center IV, Cypress Center I, II, III and Cypress Center garage, and The Pointe. The Tampa Fund II Assets' office properties and associated mortgage loans were previously included in the Company's consolidated balance sheets and statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).

On December 23, 2013, the Company acquired TRST's 70% interest in the Bank of America Center, an office building located in the central business district of Orlando, Florida, giving us 100% ownership of the property. The purchase price for TRST's 70% interest in the Bank of America Center was $52.5 million, based on an agreed-upon gross valuation of $75.0 million, including the assumption of approximately $23.7 million of existing mortgage indebtedness. The existing mortgage loan secured by the Bank of America Center has a current outstanding balance of approximately $33.9 million, a fixed interest rate of 4.74% and a maturity date of May 2018. The Bank of America Center and its associated mortgage loan were previously included in its consolidated balance sheets and statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).

Austin Joint Venture

On December 19, 2013, the Company acquired TPGI's interest in the Austin Joint Venture in connection with the Mergers. The Company and Madison owned a 50% interest in the joint venture with CalSTRS. The Austin Joint Venture owned the following properties: San Jacinto Center; Frost Bank Tower; One Congress Plaza; One American Center; and 300 West 6th Street.

On January 24, 2014, pursuant to a put right held by Madison, the Company purchased Madison’s approximately 17% interest in the CalSTRS joint venture for a purchase price of approximately $41.5 million. On February 10, 2014, pursuant to an agreement entered into between CalSTRS and the Company, CalSTRS exercised an option to purchase 60% of Madison's former interest on the same terms as the Company for approximately $24.9 million. After giving effect to these transactions, the Company has a 40% interest in the CalSTRS joint venture and the Austin properties, with CalSTRS owning the remaining 60%.

Murano Residential Condominium Project

The Company also consolidates its Murano residential condominium project which it controls. The Company's unaffiliated partner's interest is reflected on the Company's consolidated balance sheets under the "Noncontrolling Interests" caption. The Company's partner has an ownership interest of 27%. Net proceeds from the project will be distributed, to the extent available, based on an order of preferences described in the partnership agreement. The Company may receive distributions, if any, in excess of its 73% ownership interest if certain return thresholds are met.

Other Noncontrolling Interests

The Company’s interest in its properties is held through the Operating Partnership.  All decisions relating to the operations and distributions of the Operating Partnership are made by the Company, which serves indirectly as the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership.  The Company owns a 95.5% interest in the Operating Partnership at December 31, 2014.  Noncontrolling interests in the Operating Partnership represents common Operating Partnership units that are not owned by the Company. Interests in the Operating Partnership are owned by limited partners who contributed properties and other assets to the Operating Partnership in exchange for common Operating Partnership units as part of merger and acquisition activities.  Limited partners have the right under the partnership agreement of the Operating Partnership to tender their units for redemption in exchange for cash or shares of the Company’s common stock, as selected by the Company in its sole and absolute discretion. Accordingly, the Company classifies the common Operating Partnership units held by limited partners in permanent equity because the Company may elect to issue shares of its common stock to limited partners exercising their redemption rights rather than using cash.




102



Noncontrolling interests - unit holders include (a) 900,000 outstanding common units in the Operating Partnership that were issued in connection with the Company's acquisition of Lincoln Place, an office building located in the South Beach submarket in Miami, Florida, and (b) approximately 4.3 million outstanding common units in the Operating Partnership that were issued in exchange for outstanding limited partnership interests in TPGI in connection with the Mergers.

Income is allocated to noncontrolling interests based on the weighted average percentage ownership during the year.

Note 15 - Income Taxes

The Company elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code, commencing with its taxable year ended December 31, 1997. In January 1998, the Company completed its reorganization into an UPREIT structure under which substantially all of the Company's real estate assets are owned by the Operating Partnership. Presently substantially all interests in the Operating Partnership are owned by the Company and a wholly owned subsidiary. To qualify as a REIT, the Company must meet a number of organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement that it currently distribute at least 90% of its adjusted taxable income to its stockholders. It is management's current intention to adhere to these requirements and maintain the Company's REIT status, and the Company was in compliance with all REIT requirements at December 31, 2014. As a REIT, the Company generally will not be subject to corporate level federal income tax on taxable income it distributes currently to its stockholders. If the Company fails to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, it will be subject to federal income taxes at regular corporate rates (including any applicable alternative minimum tax) and may not be able to qualify as a REIT for four subsequent taxable years. Even if the Company qualifies for taxation as a REIT, the Company may be subject to certain state and local taxes on its income and property, and to federal income and excise taxes on its undistributed taxable income. The Operating Partnership and its subsidiary, which is a pass-through entity generally not subject to federal and state income taxes, as all of the taxable income, gains and deductions are passed through its partners. However, the Operating Partnership is subject to income taxes in Texas. In addition, taxable income from non-REIT activities managed through taxable REIT subsidiaries is subject to federal, state and local income taxes.

As of December 31, 2014, the Company had NOL carryforwards for federal income tax purposes of $254.8 million (including $88.4 million of NOLs from the Mergers). On December 10, 2012, the Company believes a change in ownership pursuant to Section 382 of the Code has occurred. Accordingly, $160.8 million of NOLs in existence as of December 10, 2012 are subject to an annual Section 382 limitation of $15.4 million. The historic NOLs of TPGI are also subject to Section 382 limitation. The Company's NOL carryforwards (including NOLs of TPGI) are subject to varying expiration dates beginning in 2018 through 2033. As of December 31, 2014, the Company recorded a full valuation allowance against its deferred tax asset associated with the net operating losses due to the uncertainty of future utilization. The utilization of these NOLs can cause the Company to incur a small alternative minimum tax.

    The Company's income differs for income tax and financial reporting purposes principally because real estate owned has a different basis for tax and financial reporting purposes, producing different gains upon disposition and different amounts of annual depreciation.

The Company has elected to treat certain consolidated subsidiaries as taxable REIT subsidiaries, which are tax paying entities for income tax purposes and are taxed separately from the Company. Taxable REIT subsidiaries may participate in non-real estate related activities and/or perform non-customary services for customers and are subject to federal and state income tax at regular corporate tax rates. On May 18, 2011, in connection with the combination of the Eola management company, the Company contributed the management company to a TRS wholly owned by the Operating Partnership.

Certain income and expense items of taxable REIT subsidiaries are accounted for differently for financial reporting and income tax purposes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial statement and the tax bases of assets and liabilities, applying enacted statutory income tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. As of December 31, 2014, the Company recorded a net deferred tax asset of $4.6 million. Deferred tax assets generally represent items that can be used as a tax deduction in the Company's tax returns in future years for which the Company has already recorded a tax benefit in its consolidated statement of operations.

    FASB ASC 740-10-30 ("ASC 740-10-30") "Accounting for Income Taxes" subsection "Initial Measurement," requires that deferred tax assets be reduced by a valuation allowance if it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. In determining whether the deferred tax asset is realizable, the Company considers all available positive and negative evidence, including future reversal of existing taxable temporary differences, carryback potential, tax-planning strategies and its ability to generate sufficient taxable income in future years. During 2014, sufficient positive evidence became available to reach a conclusion that the valuation allowance is no longer needed and, as a result, the Company released the entire valuation allowance. This release resulted in the recognition of certain deferred tax assets and a decrease in income tax expense for the period.

The Company's federal income tax returns for tax years 2011 through 2014 remain open and subject to examination by the taxing authorities.

On December 19, 2013, the Company completed the Mergers. The Company assumed TPGI’s ownership interest in two wholly owned office properties in Houston, Texas and five office properties in Austin, Texas in the PKY/CalSTRS Austin, LLC discussed in "Note 4 - Investments in Unconsolidated Joint Ventures", and mortgage notes payable discussed in "Note 8—Capital and Financing Transactions". As set forth in the Merger Agreement, the parties to the Parent Merger intended that the Parent Merger be treated as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code. Assuming that, as intended, the Parent Merger qualified as a reorganization, because TPGI was a C corporation, the Company is subject to the rules applicable to REITs acquiring assets with "built-in gain" from C corporations in reorganizations. Pursuant to these rules, the Company is subject to corporate income tax to the extent that unrealized gain on historic TPGI assets (determined at the time of the Parent Merger) is recognized in taxable dispositions of such assets in the ten-year period following the Parent Merger. In addition, in connection with the Parent Merger, the Company succeeded to $88.4 million (or $30.9 million of deferred tax asset) of historic TPGI net operating loss carryovers (determined for U.S. federal income tax purposes), the utilization of which is subject to limitations under Section 382 of Code. In addition, the Company has deferred tax assets associated with California and Pennsylvania net operating losses of $1.4 million, and $2.8 million, respectively. ASC 740-10-30 requires that deferred tax assets be reduced by a valuation allowance if it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. Future realization of the deferred tax asset is dependent on the reversal of existing taxable temporary differences, carryback potential, tax-planning strategies and on us generating sufficient taxable income in future years. As of December 31, 2014, a valuation allowance has been established against the net deferred tax assets that will more likely than not be realized of $25.3 million, $1.0 million and $2.1 million for federal, California and Pennsylvania, respectively. At December 31, 2013, a deferred tax liability of approximately $11,000 has been recorded to reflect Texas Margin Tax for the sale of Four Points.

FASB ASC 740-10-25, "Accounting for Income Taxes" subsection "Recognition," clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in a company's financial statements. The interpretation prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute criteria for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The interpretation also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. The Company's policy is to recognize interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as components of income tax expense. As of December 31, 2014, there is no interest or penalty associated with unrecognized tax benefits.

At December 31, 2014, the Company has recorded unrecognized tax benefits of approximately $6.9 million, acquired as part of the TPGI merger and, if recognized, would not affect its effective tax rate. The Company has sufficient NOLs to utilize for current or future tax liabilities.

Note 16 - Share-Based and Long-Term Compensation Plans
    
The Company grants share-based awards under the 2013 Equity Plan. Effective May 16, 2013, the stockholders of the Company approved the 2013 Equity Plan. The 2013 Equity Plan replaced the 2010 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan (the "2010 Equity Plan") that authorized the grant of up to 600,000 equity-based awards to employees and directors of the Company. Outstanding awards granted under the 2010 Equity Plan continue to be governed by the 2010 Equity Plan. All of the employees of the Company and the Operating Partnership, employees of certain subsidiaries of the Company, non-employee directors, and any consultants or advisors to the Company and the Operating Partnership are eligible to participate in the 2013 Equity Plan.

The 2013 Equity Plan authorizes the following types of awards: (1) stock options, including nonstatutory stock options and incentive stock options ("ISOs"); (2) stock appreciation rights; (3) restricted shares; (4) restricted share units; (5) profits interest units ("LTIPS units"); (6) dividend equivalent rights; and (7) other forms of awards payable in or denominated by reference to shares of common stock. Full value awards, i.e., awards other than options and stock appreciation rights, vest over a period of three years or longer, except that any full value awards subject to performance-based vesting must become vested over a period of one year or longer. The Compensation Committee may waive vesting requirements upon a participant’s death, disability, retirement or other specified termination of service or upon a change in control.

The aggregate number of shares of the Company's common stock available for awards pursuant to the Plan is 3,250,000, including a maximum of 2,000,000 shares that may be granted pursuant to stock options or stock appreciation rights and a maximum of 1,250,000 shares that may be granted pursuant to other awards.

If an award is canceled, forfeited or expires unvested or unexercised, or is settled in cash rather than in shares of common stock, then the shares covered by the portion of the award that is so canceled, forfeited, expired or settled will again become available for award under the plan. Shares repurchased by the Company at the same price paid by a participant will also become available for award under the plan, and the payment of dividend equivalents in cash in conjunction with any outstanding awards will not count against the Share Limit. Shares tendered in payment of an exercise or purchase price, tendered or retained to satisfy the Company’s tax withholding obligation, not issued upon exercise of a stock appreciation right to which they are subject and shares purchased in the open market with cash proceeds of option exercises will not be available for re-issuance under the plan. No shares may be made subject to a grant if that would cause an incentive stock option to fail to qualify as such under the tax code.

Through December 31, 2014, the Company has granted stock options, LTIP units and RSUs (including time-vesting RSUs and performance-vesting RSUs) under the 2013 Equity Plan. As of December 31, 2014, the Company has restricted shares and deferred incentive share units outstanding under the 2010 Equity Plan.

On May 12, 2011, the Board of Directors approved the Company's 2011 Employee Inducement Award Plan (the "2011 Inducement Plan") that authorized the grant of up to 149,573 restricted shares and/or deferred incentive share units to employees and directors of the Company in connection with the combination with Eola. The Plan shall continue in effect until the earlier of (a) its termination by the Board or (b) the date on which all of the shares of stock available for issuance under the Plan have been issued; provided that awards outstanding on that date shall survive in accordance with their terms. The Company no longer grants awards under the 2011 Inducement Plan.

Long-Term Equity Incentives

At December 31, 2014, a total of 1,293,750 shares underlying stock options had been granted to officers of the Company and remain outstanding under the 2013 Equity Plan. The stock options are valued at $5.4 million, which equates to an average price per share of $4.17. Each stock option will vest in increments of 25% per year on each of the first, second, third and fourth anniversaries of the grant date, subject to the grantee's continued service. At December 31, 2014, a total of 372,645 time-vesting RSUs had been granted to officers of the Company and remain outstanding. The time-vesting RSUs are valued at $6.9 million, which equates to an average price per share of $18.49. A total of 138,380 time-vesting RSU awards will vest in increments of 25% per year on each of the first, second, third and fourth anniversaries of the grant date and 234,265 time-vesting RSU awards will vest in increments of 33% per year on each of the first, second, and third anniversaries of the grant date, subject to the grantee's continued service.

At December 31, 2014, a total of 300,636 LTIP units had been granted to officers of the Company and remain outstanding under the 2013 Equity Plan. LTIP units are a form of limited partnership interest issued by the Operating Partnership, and will be considered earned if, and only to the extent to which applicable total shareholder return, ("TSR"), performance measures are achieved during the performance period. Grant date fair values of the LTIP units are estimated using a Monte Carlo simulation model and the resulting expense is recorded regardless of whether the TSR performance measures are achieved if the required service is delivered. The grant date fair values are being amortized over expense over the period from the grant date to the date at which the awards, if any, would become vested. The LTIP units are valued at $2.8 million, which equates to an average price per share of $9.26. At December 31, 2014, a total of 131,888 performance-vesting RSUs had been granted to officers of the Company and remain outstanding under the 2013 Equity Plan. The performance-vesting RSUs are valued at approximately $1.2 million, which equates to an average price per share of $9.08. Each LTIP unit and performance-vesting RSU will vest based on the attainment of total stockholder return targets during the applicable performance period, subject to the grantee's continued service.

At December 31, 2014, a total of 13,769 restricted shares had been granted to officers of the Company and remain outstanding under the 2010 Equity Plan. The restricted shares vest ratably over four years from the date of grant, with the last restricted shares vesting in January 2016. The restricted shares are valued at $201,000, which equates to an average price per share of $14.61. At December 31, 2013, a total of 6,855 deferred incentive share units had been granted to employees of the Company and remain outstanding under the 2010 Equity Plan. The deferred incentive share units are valued at $114,000, which equates to an average price per share of $16.63. The deferred incentive share units vest ratably over four years from the date of grant, with the last deferred incentive share units vesting in December 2015.

On December 24, 2014, the Company entered into a Separation and General Release Agreement (the "Separation Agreement") wherein Henry F. Pratt III resigned from his position as Executive Vice President of Asset Management and Third Party Services. Under the terms of the Separation Agreement, the vesting of certain of Mr. Pratt's outstanding equity and equity-based awards were accelerated as follows: 31,250 shares of company stock options, 13,777 shares of restricted stock units and 844 shares of restricted stock. Mr. Pratt's remaining equity and equity-based awards, including 62,500 shares of company stock options, 29,941 LTIP units, 21,267 restricted stock units and 533 shares of restricted stock, were forfeited. $274,000 of compensation expense was recognized in general and administrative expenses on the Company's consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) during the year ended December 31, 2014 related to the separation.

Total compensation expense related to restricted shares, deferred incentive share units, stock options, RSUs, and LTIP units of $8.2 million and $5.7 million was recognized in general and administrative expenses on the Company's consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) during the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Total compensation expense related to non-vested awards not yet recognized was $7.6 million at December 31, 2014. The weighted average period over which this expense is expected to be recognized is approximately one year.

Note 18 - Commitments and Contingencies

As part of the Mergers, the Company acquired a 1% limited partnership interest in 2121 Market Street. A mortgage loan secured by a first trust deed on 2121 Market Street is guaranteed by Parkway LP, up to a maximum amount of $14.0 million expiring in December 2022.

In connection with the closing of the TPGI Mergers, on December 19, 2013, Mr. James A. Thomas, the Company's Chairman of the Board, and certain of his related parties entered into a tax protection agreement with Parkway LP (the “New Tax Protection Agreement”), that replaced an agreement originally entered into between TPG LP and Mr. Thomas (and certain of his related parties) dated October 13, 2004 (the “Original Tax Protection Agreement”). The New Tax Protection Agreement continued and updated the obligations under the Original Tax Protection Agreement with certain changes, including an undertaking by Parkway LP to offer certain related parties of Mr. Thomas the opportunity to guarantee, in the aggregate, up to $39.0 million of direct or indirect “qualifying” indebtedness of Parkway LP and agreement as to the method that Parkway LP will adopt in allocating depreciation with respect to certain of the properties acquired from TPGI.

Note 19 – Related Party Transactions

On May 18, 2011, the Company closed on the Contribution Agreement pursuant to which Eola contributed its property management company (the “Management Company”) to the Company. Eola’s principals, which include certain officers of the Company, contributed the Management Company to the Company for initial consideration of $32.4 million in cash and contingent consideration of 1.8 million Operating Partnership units to Eola’s principals through an earn-out and earn-up arrangement based on the achievement by the Management Company of certain targeted annual gross fee revenue for the balance of 2011 and 2012. On December 30, 2011, the Company and certain officers of the Company, amended certain post-closing provisions of the Contribution Agreement to provide, among other things, that if the Management Company achieved annual revenues in excess of the original 2011 target, all Operating Partnership units subject to the 2011 earn-out, the 2012 earn-out and the earn-up will be deemed earned and paid when the 2011 earn-out payment is made. Based on the Management Company revenue for 2011, the target was achieved, and on February 28, 2012 an aggregate of 1.8 million Operating Partnership units were earned and issued to Eola’s principals. These OP units were exchanged during 2012 pursuant to their terms into an equal number of shares of the Company’s common Stock.

Also in connection with the Eola contribution of its Management Company to the Company, a subsidiary of the Company made a $3.5 million preferred equity investment in an entity 21% owned by Mr. Heistand. This investment provides that the Company will be paid a preferred equity return equal to 7% per annum of the preferred equity outstanding. In 2014, 2013, and 2012 the Company received preferred equity distributions on this investment in the aggregate amounts of approximately $265,000, $225,000 and $246,000 respectively. This preferred equity investment was approved by the Company’s Board of Directors.

On June 5, 2012, TPG Pantera acquired 4,300,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at a purchase price of $11.25 per share and 13,477,778 shares of Series E Convertible Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock, par value $.001 per share (the “Series E Preferred Stock”) at a purchase price and liquidation preference of $11.25 per share, for an aggregate investment in the Company by TPG Pantera of $200 million pursuant to a securities purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) between the Company and TPG Pantera. At a special meeting of stockholders held on July 31, 2012, the stockholders approved, among other

111



things, the right to convert, at the option of the Company or the holders, shares of the Series E Preferred Stock into shares of the Company’s Common Stock. On August 1, 2012, the Company delivered a conversion notice to TPG Pantera and all shares of Series E Preferred Stock were converted into common stock on a one-for-one basis.

In connection with the closing under the Purchase Agreement, the Company and TPG VI Management, LLC ("TPG Management"), an affiliate of TPG Pantera entered into a Management Services Agreement that sets forth certain financial advisory services previously provided by and to be provided by, and fees to be paid to TPG Management, in connection with TPG Pantera’s investment in the Company and TPG Management’s ongoing services to the Company. As provided in the Management Services Agreement, on June 5, 2012 the Company paid TPG Management a transaction fee of $6.0 million and reimbursed TPG Management $1.0 million of its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by it and its affiliates in connection with TPG Pantera’s investment in the Company. Furthermore, pursuant to the Management Services Agreement and in exchange for certain ongoing advisory and consulting services, the Company agreed to pay to TPG Management a monitoring fee equal to $600,000 for the first year following the closing under the Purchase Agreement and $1.0 million per year thereafter for so long as TPG Pantera has the right to appoint four of the directors of the Company’s Board of Directors. In each case, the monitoring fee will be reduced proportionately based on TPG Pantera’s board representation rights under the Stockholders Agreement, dated December 3, 2012, by and between the Company and TPG Pantera, as amended (the "Stockholders Agreement") as described below. On December 15, 2014, the Company and TPG Management amended the Management Services Agreement to provide that the monitoring fee is payable entirely in cash. The monitoring fee, which is paid quarterly when the Company pays its common stock dividend, is in lieu of director fees otherwise payable to the TPG Pantera-nominated members of the Board of Directors.

Also in connection with closing under the Purchase Agreement, the Company, TPG Pantera and TPG Management entered into the Stockholders Agreement pursuant to which, among other things, (1) TPG Pantera has the right to nominate a specified number of directors to the Company’s Board of Directors and to each committee of the Board of Directors determined based on its level of ownership in the Company, for so long as TPG Pantera owns 5% or more of the Company’s outstanding common stock, and (2) TPG Pantera has the right to consent to certain actions related to the Company’s corporate existence and governance, including any change in the rights and responsibilities of either the investment committee of the Board of Directors or the compensation committee of the Board of Directors, for so long as TPG Pantera’s ownership percentage of the Company’s common stock is equal to or greater than 20%, other than in connection with any change in control.
    
On August 19, 2013, the Company purchased approximately six acres of land available for development located in Tampa, Florida for a purchase price of $2.9 million. The land, which was partially and indirectly owned by certain of the Company's officers, is adjacent to the Company's Cypress Center I, II, and III assets and has surface parking used for customers of Cypress I, II, and III. On August, 22, 2013, the Company issued (1) 11,966 shares of common stock to James R. Heistand, the Company's President and Chief Executive Officer, (2) 29,916 shares of common stock to ACP-Laurich Partnership, Ltd.

Pratt III, the Company's former Executive Vice President of Asset Management and Third Party Services, as partial consideration for the land purchase.

On July 3, 2014, the Company acquired Millenia Park One, an office building located in the Millenia submarket of Orlando, Florida, for a gross purchase price of $25.5 million. The seller was partially and indirectly owned by certain officers of the Company. The seller was required to use the entire purchase price of Millenia Park One to satisfy existing debt. Accordingly, those certain officers of the Company with the aforementioned ownership in Millenia Park One received no proceeds from the sale. 

On December 8, 2014, the Company sold the retail unit at its Murano residential condominium project to its unaffiliated joint venture partner in the project for a gross sales price of $3.5 million.

Note 20 - Subsequent Events

Item 9.  Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure.

None.

Item 9A.  Controls and Procedures.

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures at December 31, 2014. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at December 31, 2014. There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the fourth quarter of 2014 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Our internal control system was designed to provide reasonable assurance to our management and Board of Directors regarding the preparation and fair presentation of published financial statements. All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to the financial statement preparation and presentation.

Management's Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Our management has assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting at December 31, 2014. In making this assessment, we used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013 Framework). Based on our assessment we have concluded that, at December 31, 2014, our internal control over financial reporting is effective based on those criteria. Our internal control over financial reporting has been audited as of December 31, 2014 by Ernst & Young LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their report which is included herein.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND STOCKHOLDERS
PARKWAY PROPERTIES, INC.

We have audited Parkway Properties, Inc. and subsidiaries’ (the “Company”) internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2014, based on criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013 Framework) (the COSO criteria). The Company's management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting included in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

In our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2014 based on the COSO criteria.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheets of the Company as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, and the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss), changes in equity and cash flows each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2014, of the Company and our report dated February 25, 2015, expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.
