During the three months ended September 30, 2017, a contingency related to a 2015 portfolio sale was settled and the Company recognized a deferred gain in the accompanying statements of comprehensive income in the amount of $14.3 million.

Pursuant to a purchase option contained in its lease agreement, a tenant exercised its option to purchase, for an aggregate purchase price of $249.0 million, two industrial buildings totaling 1.7 million square feet and 44 acres of land held for development with a total carrying value of $176.4 million. These properties and land are located in the Company's Lehigh/Central PA reportable segment. As of September 30, 2017 these assets and liabilities were classified as held for sale on the Company's consolidated balance sheet.

Additionally, the Company classified 9 acres of land held for development with a total carrying value of $1.1 million as assets held for sale due to an anticipated condemnation conveyance. The disposition is anticipated to occur in 2018. This land is located in the Company's Chicago-Minneapolis reportable segment.
