Pursuant to guidance
provided by the National Association of Real Estate Investment
Trusts ("NAREIT"), FFO is defined as net income (computed in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America ("GAAP")) excluding gains or losses from
disposition of property, impairment write-downs of depreciable real
estate, noncontrolling interest and extraordinary items plus
depreciation from real property. The Company adds back debt
extinguishment costs and other one-time costs incurred as a result
of repaying property-specific debt triggered upon sale of a
property. Because of the limitations of the FFO definition as
published by NAREIT as set forth above, the Company has made
certain interpretations in applying the definition. The Company
believes all adjustments not specifically provided for are
consistent with the definition. Similarly titled measures disclosed
by other companies may not be calculated in the same
manner.
