On May 18, 2011, the Company closed on the agreement with Eola Capital, LLC ("Eola") in which Eola contributed its Property Management Company (the "Management Company") to Parkway. Eola's principals contributed the Management Company to Parkway for initial consideration of $32.4 million in cash and Eola's principals have the opportunity to earn (i) up to 1.574 million units of limited partnership interest in Parkway's operating partnership ("OP Units") through an earn-out arrangement and (ii) up to 226,000 additional OP Units through an earn-up arrangement. To the extent earned, all OP Units are redeemable for shares of Parkway common stock on a one-for-one basis. Earn-out and earn-up consideration is contingent upon the achievement by the Management Company of targeted annual gross fee revenue and/or share price levels during an initial period for the balance of 2011 after closing and a second period for the full calendar year 2012. The earn-out and earn-up consideration is accounted for as a liability and therefore, any changes in fair value is measured through profit and loss each reporting date until the contingency is resolved. Parkway also has protections against fee income loss in the form of a provision requiring specific payments to Parkway in the event of certain terminations of existing management contracts and a non-compete agreement with regard to the existing management contracts of the Management Company. The Management Company was contributed to a wholly-owned taxable REIT subsidiary and therefore, the Company began incurring income tax expenses upon closing of the agreement. The Management Company currently manages assets totaling approximately 11.2 million square feet. Parkway funded the cash consideration for the Management Company contribution with operating cash flow, proceeds from the disposition of office properties, proceeds from an equity issuance and amounts available under the Company's credit facilities. For details regarding the Management Company's purchase price allocation see "Note G - Management Contracts."
