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 The Teacher Retirement System of Texas ("TRST") was a 70% investor and the Company was 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 Lakeside 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 Lakeside I and Hayden Ferry Lakeside 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.

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 April 8, 2015, Fund II sold Two Ravinia Drive, an office property located in Atlanta, Georgia, for a gross sale price of $78.0 million, and recognized a gain of approximately $29.0 million in continuing operations during the nine months ended September 30, 2015, of which $8.7 million was the Company's share.

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 owned a 95.9% interest in the Operating Partnership at September 30, 2015. Noncontrolling interests in the Operating Partnership represents common Operating Partnership units that are not owned by the Company. Noncontrolling 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.

Noncontrolling interests – unit holders include (a) 554,400 outstanding common units in the Operating Partnership that were issued in connection with the Company's December 2013 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 period.
