Item 2.01 Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.
On October 16, 2013, Brandywine Operating Partnership, L.P. (the "Operating Partnership") the limited partnership through which Brandywine Realty Trust, as sole general partner (the "Parent Company") and, together with the Operating Partnership and subsidiaries of the Operating Partnership, "the Company" or "we"), owns its assets and conducts its operations, contributed a portfolio of seven office properties containing an aggregate of 1,398,826 square feet located in Austin, Texas (the "Properties") to a joint venture (the "Venture") with G&I VII Austin Office LLC (“DRA”), an investment vehicle advised by DRA Advisors LLC. The Properties and related assets represent the Company's entire remaining property portfolio within the Austin, Texas region. DRA and we, based on arm's-length negotiation, agreed to an aggregate gross sales price of $330.0 million subject to an obligation on our part to fund the first $5.2 million of post-closing capital expenditures. The table below lists the location and square footage of each of the Properties:

DRA owns a 50% interest in the Venture and we own a 50% interest in the Venture, subject to our right to receive up to an additional 10% of distributions. We and DRA, utilizing additional equity funding of up to $100.0 million per partner and to-be-determined third-party debt financing, intend to jointly pursue additional office opportunities in targeted Austin sub-markets and plan to co-invest in acquisitions that meet certain investment criteria.
At the closing the Venture obtained third party non-recourse debt financing of approximately $230.6 million secured by mortgages on the Properties and used proceeds of this financing together with $49.7 million of cash contributions by DRA (less $1.9 million of closing costs and $6.9 million of closing prorations and lender holdbacks) to fund a $271.5 million distribution to us. We have agreed to fund the first $5.2 million of post-closing capital expenditures on behalf of the Venture, resulting in net proceeds of $266.3 million after funding of our capital expenditure obligation. As part of the transaction, our subsidiary management company executed an agreement with the Venture to provide property management and leasing services to the Venture in exchange for a market-based fee.
