NOTE: Computations of per share amounts from continuing operations, discontinued operations and net income are made independently. Therefore, the sum of per share amounts from continuing operations and discontinued operations may not agree with the per share amounts from net income allocable to common stockholders. Quarterly and year-to-date computations of per share amounts are made independently. Therefore, the sum of per share amounts for the quarters may not agree with the per share amounts for the year.

Reconciliation of Funds From Operations (“FFO”)

FFO is a supplemental measure of a real estate investment trust’s (“REIT”) financial performance that is not defined by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). The Company uses FFO as a supplemental measure of our operating performance and we believe FFO is helpful in evaluating the operating performance of a REIT. Real estate values historically rise and fall with market conditions, but cost accounting for real estate assets in accordance with U.S. GAAP assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. We believe that by excluding the effect of historical cost depreciation, which may be of limited relevance in evaluating current performance, FFO and modified FFO facilitate comparisons of operating performance between periods.

FFO is defined as net income available to common stockholders (computed in accordance with U.S. GAAP) excluding gains or losses on the sale of assets plus real estate depreciation and amortization, with adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures will be calculated to reflect FFO on the same basis. Modified FFO represents FFO adjusted for certain items detailed in the reconciliations. The Company’s computation of FFO may not be comparable to FFO reported by other REITs that do not define the term in accordance with the current National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts’ (“NAREIT”) definition or that have a different interpretation of the current NAREIT definition from the Company; therefore, caution should be exercised when comparing our company’s FFO to that of other REITs.

The Company uses FFO, modified FFO, modified FFO excluding non-cash rental income and modified FFO excluding non-cash rental income and non-cash compensation charges as supplemental performance measures of our cash flow generated by operations and cash available for distribution to stockholders. FFO, modified FFO, modified FFO excluding non-cash rental income and modified FFO excluding non-cash rental income and non-cash compensation charges do not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and are not necessarily indicative of cash available to fund cash needs and should not be considered an alternative to net income available to common stockholders.
