________________________
(1) | Participating securities include nonvested shares, certain time-based RSUs and vested market measure-based RSUs.
(2) | The Company adopted ASU 2014-08 effective January 1, 2015 (see Note 2 “Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies” for additional information). As a result, properties classified as held for sale and/or disposed of subsequent to January 1, 2015 that do not represent a strategic shift are no longer presented as discontinued operations.
Share-based payment awards that contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents (whether paid or unpaid) are considered participating securities. The impact of potentially dilutive common shares, including stock options, RSUs and other securities are considered in our diluted earnings per share calculation for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, because we reported income from continuing operations attributable to common stockholders in the respective periods and the effect was dilutive. Additionally, for the year ended December 31, 2014, contingently issuable shares included the impact of the 4.25% Exchangeable Notes prior to their maturity and settlement in November 2014. For the year ended December 31, 2013, contingently issuable shares were not considered in our diluted earnings per share calculation because we reported losses from continuing operations attributable to common stockholders and the effect was anti dilutive. Certain market measure-based RSUs are not included in dilutive securities as of December 31, 2015 and 2014 as not all performance metrics had been met by the end of the applicable reporting periods. See Note 13 “Share-Based Compensation” for additional information regarding the stock options and other share-based compensation.
