<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The Company advises that it will, in future filings/furnished earnings releases, further expand its definition of AFFO to include the additional rationale information outlined within its response to comment 3. Please see below the suggested revisions to the definition going forward, with additions italicized:</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt .5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&#147;Adjusted funds from operations (AFFO) is calculated by subtracting from Funds from operations (FFO) (1)&nbsp;tenant improvements and leasing costs at same-store properties, and recurring capital expenditures that are capitalized and amortized and are necessary to maintain our properties and revenue stream and (2)&nbsp;straight line rents, then adding (3)&nbsp;non-real estate depreciation and amortization and (4)&nbsp;share-based compensation expense. We may also adjust FFO for certain unusual non-recurring items that are not representative of our ongoing operating performance. Our calculation subtracts from FFO leasing commissions and tenant improvements at same-store properties only, since we consider tenant improvement and leasing cost levels at non-same-store properties unrepresentative of expected levels at same-store properties. <i>Non-same-store properties, which are composed primarily of recent acquisitions and developments/redevelopments, generally have leasing commission and tenant improvement activity that is contemplated prior to the acquisition or development/redevelopment and which we identify as necessary to bring the property to our operational standards. These costs are not comparable from period to period and are not typical of the normalized recurring activity at same-store properties which maintains the quality of the underlying assets and the revenue stream. The non-same-store leasing commissions and tenant improvements are not representative of our ongoing operating performance and accordingly are not factored into the calculation of AFFO on a consolidated basis.</i> Previously-reported AFFO amounts are not revised for changes in the composition of the same-store properties pool. We believe AFFO is helpful in understanding our operating performance between periods in that it removes certain items that by their nature are not comparable over periods and therefore tend to obscure actual operating performance.

AFFO should not be considered as an alternative to net income as an indication of financial performance, or as an alternative to cash flows from operations as a measure of liquidity, nor is it indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs, including our ability to make distributions to shareholders. AFFO is a non-GAAP and non-standardized measure, and may be calculated differently by other REITs.&#148;</font></p>
