        At September 30, 2002, certain unconsolidated development partnerships in which the Company invested had entered into swaps to hedge the interest rate risk exposure on unconsolidated floating rate construction mortgage loans. The Company has recorded its proportionate share of these hedges on its consolidated balance sheets. These swaps have been designated as cash flow hedges with a current aggregate notional amount of $427.7 million (notional amounts range from $166.5 million to $552.4 million over the terms of the swaps) at interest rates ranging from 2.25% to 6.94% maturing at various dates ranging from 2003 to 2005 with a net liability fair value of $15.0 million. During the nine months ended September 30, 2002, the Company recognized an unrealized loss of $0.8 million due to ineffectiveness of certain of these unconsolidated development derivatives (included in income (loss) from investments in unconsolidated entities).
        On September 30, 2002, the net derivative instruments were reported at their fair value as other liabilities of approximately $9.0 million and as a reduction to investments in unconsolidated entities of approximately $15.0 million. As of September 30, 2002, there were approximately $44.2 million in deferred losses, net, included in accumulated other comprehensive loss. Based on the estimated fair values of the net derivative instruments at September 30, 2002, the Company may recognize an estimated $19.3 million of
15
accumulated other comprehensive loss as additional interest expense during the twelve months ending September 30, 2003, of which $8.0 million is related to the unconsolidated development partnerships.

Convertible preferred shares/units that could be converted into ~~15,853,687~~15,461,855 and ~~10,831,704~~15,322,607 weighted average Common Shares for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively, and 15,095,576 and 15,626,902 weighted average Common Shares for the quarters ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively, were outstanding but were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because the effects would be anti-dilutive.
On October 11, 2001, the Company effected a two-for-one split of its Common Shares and OP Units to shareholders and unitholders of record as of September 21, 2001. All per share and OP Unit data and numbers of Common Shares and OP Units have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the Common Share and OP Unit split.
~~13.~~14.  Discontinued Operations
        In August 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 144,Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. The Company adopted the standard effective January 1, 2002, which did not have a material effect on the Company's financial condition and results of operations.
        Under the provisions of SFAS No. 144, for long-lived assets to be held and used, the Company first determines whether any indicators of impairment exist. If indicators exist, the Company compares the expected future undiscounted cash flows for the long-lived asset against the carrying amount of that asset. If the sum of the estimated undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset, an impairment loss would be recorded for the difference between the estimated fair value and the carrying amount of the asset.
17
        For long-lived assets to be disposed of, an impairment loss is recognized when the estimated fair value of the asset, less the estimated cost to sell, is less than the carrying amount of the asset measured at the time that the Company has determined it will sell the asset. Long-lived assets held for disposition are reported at the lower orof their carrying amounts or their estimated fair values, less their costs to sell.
15

        Goodwill and investments in unconsolidated entities accounted for under the equity method of accounting are specifically excluded from the scope of SFAS No. 144.
        On January 11, 2002, the Company disposed of its furniture rental business for $30.0 million and received net proceeds of $28.7 million. No gain/loss on sale was recognized as the net book value at the sale date after giving effect to a previously recorded impairment loss approximated the sales price.
        The components of discontinued operations for the nine months and quarters ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively, are outlined below and include the results of operations through the date of each respective sale for the nine months and quarter ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2002, and a full nine months and quarter of operations for the nine months and quarter ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2001, for the following:

~~14.~~15.  Commitments and Contingencies
        The Company, as an owner of real estate, is subject to various environmental laws of Federal and local governments. Compliance by the Company with existing laws has not had a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition and results of operations. However, the Company cannot predict the impact of new or changed laws or regulations on its current properties or on properties that it may acquire in the future.
        The Company does not believe there is any litigation threatened against the Company other than routine litigation arising out of the ordinary course of business, some of which is expected to be covered by liability insurance, none of which is expected to have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial statements of the Company.
18
        In regards to the funding of properties in the development ~~and/or earnout~~ stage and the ~~joint venture~~ agreements with multifamily residential real estate developers, the Company funded a net total of ~~$5.6~~$65.1 million during the ~~quarter~~nine months ended ~~March 31, 2002. The Company expects to fund approximately~~
16

~~$22.7 million in connection with these properties during the remainder of~~September 30, 2002. In connection with one ~~joint venture~~development agreement, the Company has an obligation to fund up to an additional ~~$6.5~~$9.5 million to guarantee third party construction financing. As of ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2002, the Company has 2017 projects ~~under~~in various stages of development (includes two consolidated projects) with estimated completion dates ranging ~~from June 30, 2002~~ through March 31, 2004.
        For one development ~~joint venture~~ agreement, the Company's ~~joint venture~~ partner has the right, at any time following completion of a project, to stipulate a value for such project and offer to sell its interest in the project to the Company based on such value. If the Company chooses not to purchase the interest, it must agree to a sale of the project to an unrelated third party at such value. The Company's ~~joint venture~~ partner must exercise this right as to all projects within five years after the receipt of the final certificate of occupancy on the last developed property.
        Under a second development ~~joint venture~~ agreement, the Company's ~~joint venture~~ partner has the right, at any time following completion of a project, to require the Company to purchase the ~~joint venture~~ partners' interest in that project at a mutually agreeable price. If the Company and the ~~joint venture~~ partner are unable to agree on a price, both parties will obtain appraisals. If the appraised values vary by more than 10%, both the Company and ~~the joint venture~~its partner will agree on a third appraiser to determine which original appraisal is closest to its determination of value. The Company may elect at that time not to purchase the property and instead, authorize ~~the joint venture~~its partner to sell the project at or above the agreed-upon value to an unrelated third party. Five years following the receipt of the final certificate of occupancy on the last developed property, any projects remaining unsold must be purchased by the Company at the agreed-upon price.
        The Company provided a credit enhancement with respect to certain tax-exempt bonds issued to finance certain public improvements at a multifamily development project. As of ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2002, this enhancement was still in effect at a commitment amount of $12.7 million.
~~15.~~16.  Asset Impairment
        For the ~~quarters~~nine months ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2002 and 2001, the Company recorded approximately ~~$0.3~~$0.9 million and ~~$3.0~~$8.0 million, respectively, of asset impairment charges related to its technology investments. These charges were the result of review of the existing investments reflected on the consolidated balance sheet. ~~The Company reviewed the current relative value of each investment based on existing economic conditions and current events.~~ These impairment losses are reflected on the statement of operations in total expenses and include the write-down of assets classified as other assets and investments in unconsolidated entities.
        For the nine months ended September 30, 2002, the Company recorded approximately $17.1 million of asset impairment charges related to its corporate housing business. Following the guidance in SFAS No. 142, these charges were the result of the Company's decision to reduce the carrying value of its corporate housing business to $30.0 million, given the continued weakness in the economy and management's expectations for near-term performance. This impairment loss is reflected on the consolidated statements of operations as impairment on corporate housing business and on the consolidated balance sheets as a reduction in goodwill, net.
        As of September 30, 2001, the Company recorded $60.0 million of asset impairment charges related to its furniture rental business. These charges were the result of a review of the existing intangible and tangible assets reflected on the consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2001. The Company reviewed the current net book value taking into consideration existing business and economic conditions as well as projected cash flows. The impairment loss is reflected on the income statement in discontinued operations, net, and includes the write-down of the following assets: a) goodwill of approximately $26.0 million; b) rental furniture, net of approximately $28.6 million; c) property and equipment, net of approximately $4.5 million; and d) other assets of approximately $0.9 million.
19
~~16.~~17.  Reportable Segments
        Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by senior management. Senior management decides how resources are allocated and assesses performance on a monthly basis.
        The Company's primary business is owning, managing, and operating multifamily residential properties, which includes the generation of rental and other related income through the leasing of apartment units to residents. Senior management evaluates the performance of each of our apartment communities on an individual basis, however, each of our apartment communities has similar economic characteristics, residents, and products and services so they have been aggregated into one reportable segment. The Company's rental real estate segment ~~comprises~~comprised approximately ~~98.9%~~98.8% and 97.9% of total revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively, and approximately 99.0% and 98.5% of total revenues for the quarters ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively. The Company's rental real estate segment ~~comprises~~comprised approximately ~~99.6%~~99.7% and 99.4% of total assets at ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2002 and December 31, 2001, respectively.
17

        The primary financial measure for the Company's rental real estate segment is net operating income ("NOI"), which represents rental income less: 1) property and maintenance expense; 2) real estate taxes and insurance expense; and 3) property management expense (all as reflected in the accompanying statements of operations). Current year NOI is compared to prior year NOI and current year budgeted NOI as a measure of financial performance. NOI from our rental real estate totaled approximately ~~$309.1~~$905.1 million and ~~$308.1~~$916.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively, and approximately $297.5 million and $312.6 million for the quarters ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively.
        During the acquisition, development and/or disposition of real estate, the NOI return on total capitalized costs is the primary measure of financial performance ~~(capitalization rate)~~ the Company considers.
        The Company's fee and asset management activity ~~are~~is immaterial and dodoes not meet the threshold requirements of a reportable segment as provided for in SFAS No. 131.
~~17.~~18.  Subsequent ~~Events~~Events/Other

        The Company's acquisition and disposition activity has impacted overall results of operations for the nine months and quarters ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2002 and 2001. Significant changes in revenues and expenses have resulted primarily from the consolidation of previously Unconsolidated Properties in July 2001, the disposition of the ~~Globe~~ furniture rental business on January 11, 2002, reduced rental income through increased concessions or reduced apartment rents at selected properties as well as the properties acquired and developments completed in 2001 ~~Acquisitions~~ and ~~Completed Development properties,~~2002, which have been partially offset by the ~~disposition of the 2002~~properties disposed in 2001 and ~~the 2001 Disposed properties.~~2002. Significant ~~change~~changes in expenses ~~has~~have also resulted from ~~an increase~~changes in insurance costs, ~~and~~ general and administrative costs, ~~and reductions in variable interest rates,~~ impairment charges and ~~goodwill amortization.~~variable interest rates. This impact is discussed in greater detail in the following paragraphs.
        Properties that the Company owned for all of both the nine month periods ended September 30, 2002 and September 30, 2001 (the "Nine-Month 2002 Same Store Properties"), which represented 191,940 units, and properties that the Company owned for all of both the quarters ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2002 and ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2001 (the ~~"First~~"Third Quarter 2002 Same Store Properties"), which represented ~~197,305~~197,852 units, also impacted the Company's results of ~~operations~~operations. Both the Nine-Month 2002 Same Store Properties and Third Quarter 2002 Same Store Properties are discussed ~~as well~~ in the following paragraphs.
Comparison of the ~~quarter~~nine months ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2002 to the ~~quarter~~nine months ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2001
        For the ~~quarter~~nine months ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2002, income before allocation to Minority Interests, income (loss) from investments in unconsolidated entities, net gain (loss) on sales of unconsolidated entities, discontinued operations, extraordinary items and cumulative effect of change in accounting principle decreased by approximately ~~$4.6~~$46.5 million when compared to the ~~quarter~~nine months ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2001.

        For ~~2002~~ properties that the Company acquired prior to ~~December 31, 2000~~January 1, 2001 and ~~will~~expects to continue to own through December 31, 2002, the Company anticipates the following operating assumptions for the year ~~ended~~ending December 31, 2002:

        For properties that the Company acquired prior to January 1, 2002 and expects to continue to own through December 31, 2003, the Company anticipates the following operating assumptions for the year ending December 31, 2003:
2003 "Same Store" Operating Assumptions
~~Refinancing~~Physical Occupancy 93.0%
Revenue Change (3.9%) to (1.4%)
Expense Change 2.1% to 4.4%
NOI Change (9.2%) to (3.7%)
Dispositions $~~200~~700 million ~~at 7.0%~~
        These 2002 and 2003 operating assumptions are based on current expectations and are forward-looking.
        Rental income from properties other than ~~First Quarter~~Nine-Month 2002 Same Store Properties increased by approximately ~~$1.4~~$10.4 million primarily as a result of revenue from properties the ~~Company's~~Company acquired in 2001 ~~Acquired Properties~~and 2002 and additional ~~2001~~ Partially Owned ~~Properties.~~Properties that the Company consolidated in 2001.
        Interest and other income decreased by approximately ~~$2.4~~$6.1 million, primarily as a result of lower balances available for investment and related interest rates being earned on the Company's short-term
23
investment accounts along with lower balances on deposit in tax-deferred exchange accounts.
        Interest income—investment in mortgage notes decreased by ~~$2.7~~$8.8 million as a result of the Company consolidating ~~these~~ previously Unconsolidated Properties in July 2001. No additional interest income will be recognized on ~~the~~such mortgage notes in future years as the Company now consolidates the results related to these previously Unconsolidated Properties.
        Property management expenses include off-site expenses associated with the self-management of the Company's properties. These expenses ~~increased~~decreased by approximately ~~$0.3~~$0.5 million or ~~less than 2%~~0.1%. ~~The Company continues~~This decrease is primarily attributable to ~~acquire properties in major metropolitan areas~~lower expected levels of employee bonus and dispose of assets in smaller multi-family rental markets where the Company does not have a significant management presence. As a result, the Company was able to maintain off-site management expenses at a constant level between the two reporting periods.profit sharing payments for 2002.
        Fee and asset management revenues, ~~and~~net of fee and asset management expenses, ~~decreased~~increased by $1.1 million as a result of the Company managing ~~fewer~~an additional 3,637 units ~~quarter over quarter for outside owners and unconsolidated entities.~~at Fort Lewis, Washington starting in April 2002. As of ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2002 and 2001, the Company managed ~~16,539~~20,142 units and ~~20,300~~15,948 units, respectively, for third parties and ~~the~~ unconsolidated ~~joint venture~~ entities.
        The Company recorded impairment charges in 2002 ~~totaling~~on its corporate housing business and its technology investments of approximately ~~$0.3~~$17.1 million ~~which is related to one investment in a technology entity.~~and $0.9 million, respectively. See Note 1516 in the Notes to ~~the~~ Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion.
        Interest expense, including amortization of deferred financing costs, decreased approximately ~~$5.1~~$11.9 million primarily due to lower variable interest rates. During the ~~quarter~~nine months ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2002, the Company capitalized interest costs of approximately ~~$5.9~~$19.4 million as compared to ~~$6.0~~$21.0 million for the ~~quarter~~nine months ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2001. This capitalization of interest primarily related to ~~equity~~ investments in unconsolidated entities engaged in development activities. The effective interest cost on all of the Company's indebtedness for the ~~quarter~~nine months ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2002 was ~~6.51%~~6.60% as compared to ~~7.07%~~7.00% for the ~~quarter~~nine months ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2001.
        General and administrative expenses, which include corporate operating expenses, increased approximately ~~$4.0~~$9.4 million between the ~~quarters~~nine months under comparison. This increase was primarily due to ~~the addition of~~higher state income taxes ~~from previously~~in Michigan and New Jersey, income taxes incurred at one of the Company's taxable REIT subsidiaries which has an ownership interest in properties that in prior periods were classified as Unconsolidated Properties, retirement plan expenses for
21

certain key executives, ~~and higher overall compensation expenses including a current expense associated with~~ restricted shares/awards granted to key ~~employees.~~employees and additional compensation charges and costs associated with the Company's new President.
        ~~Net gain on sales of~~Income (loss) from investments in unconsolidated entities ~~increased by $5.7 million as a result of the sale of one stabilized development joint venture property (296 units).~~
        ~~Net gain on sales of discontinued operations~~ decreased approximately ~~$39.0~~$3.6 million between the periods under comparison. This decrease is primarily the result of aincreased equity losses and unrealized losses on derivative instruments.
        Net gain on sales of discontinued operations decreased approximately $38.6 million between the periods under comparison. This decrease is primarily the result of approximately 3,200 fewer number of units sold during the nine months ended September 30, 2002 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2001 (includes approximately 3,000 units sold into a joint venture in February 2001).
Comparison of the quarter ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2002 ~~(461 units) as~~to the quarter ended September 30, 2001
        For the quarter ended September 30, 2002, income before allocation to Minority Interests, income (loss) from investments in unconsolidated entities, net gain (loss) on sales of unconsolidated entities, discontinued operations, extraordinary items and cumulative effect of change in accounting principle decreased by approximately $34.3 million when compared to the quarter ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2001.
24
        Revenues from the Third Quarter 2002 Same Store Properties decreased primarily as a result of lower rental rates charged new residents, increased concessions and lower overall physical occupancy. Property operating expenses from the Third Quarter 2002 Same Store Properties, which include property and maintenance, real estate taxes and insurance and an allocation of property management expenses, increased $3.5 million or 2.0% primarily as a result of increases in real estate taxes, insurance costs and payroll overtime. The following tables provide comparative revenue, expense, NOI and weighted average occupancy for the Third Quarter 2002 Same Store Properties:

        Rental income from properties other than Third Quarter 2002 Same Store Properties increased by approximately $1.8 million primarily as a result of revenue from properties the Company acquired in the third and fourth quarters of 2001 ~~(5,283~~and during the nine months ended September 30, 2002.
        Interest and other income decreased by approximately $3.9 million, primarily as a result of lower balances available for investment and related rates being earned on the Company's short-term investment accounts along with lower balances on deposit in tax-deferred exchange accounts.
        Property management expenses include off-site expenses associated with the self-management of the Company's properties. These expenses decreased by approximately $2.2 million or 11.1%. This decrease is primarily attributable to lower expected levels of employee bonus and profit sharing payments for 2002.
        Fee and asset management revenues, net of fee and asset management expenses, increased by $1.2 million as a result of the Company managing an additional 3,637 units at Fort Lewis starting in April 2002. As of September 30, 2002 and 2001, the Company managed 20,142 units and 15,948 units, respectively, for third parties and unconsolidated entities.
        The Company recorded impairment charges in 2002 on its corporate housing business and its technology investments of approximately $17.1 million and $0.3 million, respectively. See Note 16 in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion.
        Interest expense, including ~~interests~~amortization of deferred financing costs, decreased approximately $5.2 million primarily due to lower variable interest rates. During the quarter ended September 30, 2002, the Company capitalized interest costs of approximately $7.1 million as compared to $8.2 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2001. This capitalization of interest primarily related to investments in unconsolidated
25
entities engaged in development activities. The effective interest cost on all of the Company's indebtedness for the quarter ended September 30, 2002 was 6.52% as compared to 6.82% for the quarter ended September 30, 2001.
        General and administrative expenses, which include corporate operating expenses, increased approximately $1.1 million between the quarters under comparison. This increase was primarily due to retirement plan expenses for certain key executives, higher state income taxes, restricted shares/awards granted to key employees and additional compensation charges and costs associated with the Company's new President.
        Income (loss) from investments in unconsolidated entities decreased approximately $2.9 million between the periods under comparison. This decrease is primarily the result of increased equity losses and unrealized losses on derivative instruments.
        Net gain (loss) on sales of unconsolidated entities decreased approximately $5.9 million between the periods under comparison. This decrease is the loss associated with the sale in the third quarter of 2002 of one property held in one of our development entities.
        Net gain on sales of discontinued operations decreased approximately $20.8 million between the periods under comparison. This decrease is primarily the result of certain properties sold ~~into institutional joint ventures).~~during the quarter ended September 30, 2001 having a lower net carrying value at sale, which resulted in higher recognition of gain for financial reporting purposes.

        As of January 1, 2002, the Company had approximately $51.6 million of cash and cash equivalents and $505.0 million available under its line of credit, of which ~~$59~~$59.0 million was restricted (not available for borrowings).

Investments in Unconsolidated Entities
        In connection with one ~~joint venture~~development agreement, the Company has an obligation to fund up to an additional ~~$6.5~~$9.5 million to guarantee third party construction financing.

        For one development ~~joint venture~~ agreement, the Company's ~~joint venture~~ partner has the right, at any time following completion of a project, to stipulate a value for such project and offer to sell its interest in the project to the Company based on such value. If the Company chooses not to purchase the interest, it must agree to a sale of the project to an unrelated third party at such value. The Company's ~~joint venture~~ partner must exercise this right as to all projects within five years after the receipt of the final certificate of occupancy on the last developed property.

If the Company and the ~~joint venture~~ partner are unable to agree on a price, both parties will obtain appraisals. If the appraised values vary by more than 10%, both the Company and ~~the joint venture~~its partner will agree on a third appraiser to determine which original appraisal is closest to its determination of value. The Company may elect at that time not to purchase the property and instead, authorize ~~the joint venture~~its partner to sell the project at or above the agreed-upon value to an unrelated third party. Five years following the receipt of the final certificate of occupancy on the last developed property, any projects remaining unsold must be purchased by the Company at the agreed-upon price.

Other
        Minority Interests as of ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2002 decreased by ~~$1.7~~$14.7 million when compared to December 31, 2001. The primary factors that impacted this account in the Company's consolidated statements of operations and balance sheets during the ~~quarter~~nine months were:
•
distributions declared to Minority Interests, which amounted to ~~$9.9~~$29.5 million for the ~~three~~nine months ~~ending March 31,~~ended September 30, 2002 (excluding Junior Preference Unit and Preference Interest distributions);

        The Company expects to meet its short-term liquidity requirements, including capital expenditures related to maintaining its existing properties and certain scheduled unsecured note and mortgage note repayments, generally through its working capital, net cash provided by operating activities and borrowings under its line of credit. The Company considers its cash provided by operating activities to be adequate to meet operating requirements and payments of distributions. The Company also expects to meet its long-term liquidity requirements, such as scheduled unsecured note and mortgage debt maturities, property acquisitions, financing of construction and development activities and capital improvements through the issuance of unsecured notes and equity securities, including additional OP Units, and proceeds received from the disposition of certain properties. In addition, the Company has certain unencumbered properties available to secure additional mortgage borrowings in the event that the public capital markets are unavailable to the Company or the cost of alternative sources of capital to the Company is too high. ~~These~~The fair value of these unencumbered properties are in excess of the required value ~~of unencumbered properties~~ the Company must maintain in order to comply with covenants under its unsecured notes and line of credit.

As of November 7, 2002, $285.0 million was outstanding under this new facility.

        The Company periodically evaluates its long-lived assets, including its investments in real estate and goodwill, for impairment indicators. The judgments regarding the existence of impairment indicators are based on factors such as operational performance, market conditions and legal factors. Future events could occur which would cause the Company to conclude that impairment indicators exist and an impairment loss is warranted.
Depreciation of Investment in Real Estate
        The Company depreciates the building component of its investment in real estate over a 30-year estimated useful life, building improvements over a 5-year to 10-year estimated useful life and both the furniture, fixtures and equipment and replacements components over a 5-year estimated useful life, all of which are judgmental determinations.
26

Fair Value of Financial Instruments, Including Derivative Instruments
        The valuation of financial instruments under SFAS No. 107 and SFAS No. 133 requires the Company to make estimates and judgments that affect the fair value of the instruments. The Company, where possible, bases the fair values of its financial instruments, including its derivative instruments, on listed market prices and third party quotes. Where these are not available, the Company bases its estimates on other factors relevant to the financial instruments.
Stock Option Compensation
        The Company has chosen to account for its stock option compensation in accordance with APB No. 25, which results in no compensation expense for options issued with an exercise price equal to or exceeding market value of the Company's Common Shares on the date of ~~grant, instead of Statement~~grant. The Company will elect to expense its stock option compensation in accordance with SFAS No. 123 effective January 1, 2003 which ~~would~~will result in compensation expense being recorded based on the fair value of the stock option compensation issued.
Cost Capitalization
        See theCapitalization of Fixed Assets and Improvements to Real Estate section for discussion of the Company's policy with respect to capitalization vs. expensing of fixed asset/repair and maintenance costs. The Company expenses as incurred all payroll costs of employees working directly at our properties, except that during the initial lease-up phase on a development project, an allocated portion of payroll costs is capitalized based upon the occupancy of the project until stabilized occupancy is achieved. Stabilized occupancy is always deemed to have occurred no later than one year from cessation of major development activities.
        The Company capitalizes interest, real estate taxes and insurance related to its development projects. The Company also capitalizes payroll and associated costs for those individuals directly responsible for and who spend all of their time on development activities. The incremental payroll and associated costs are capitalized to the projects under development based upon the effort directly identifiable with such projects. These costs are reflected on the balance sheet as either construction in progress or a separate component of investments in unconsolidated entities. The Company ceases the capitalization of such costs as the property becomes substantially complete and ready for its intended use. In addition, the Company capitalizes the payroll and associated costs of employees directly responsible for and who spend all of their time on major capital projects. These costs are reflected on the balance sheet as an increase to building. The Company follows the guidance in SFAS No. 67,Accounting for Costs and Initial Rental Operations of Real Estate Projects, and uses its professional judgment in determining whether such costs meet the criteria for capitalization or must be expensed as incurred.
32
Revenue Recognition
        Rental income attributable to leases is recorded when due from residents and is recognized monthly as it is earned, which is not materially different than on a straight-line basis. Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis. Leases entered into between a resident and a property for the rental of an apartment unit are generally year-to-year, renewable upon consent of both parties on a year-to-year or month-to-month basis.
        The Company adopted the provisions of Staff Accounting Bulletin ("SAB") No. 101,Revenue Recognition, effective October 1, 2000. SAB No. 101 provides guidance on the recognition, presentation and disclosure of revenue in financial statements.
Adjusted Net Income
        For the ~~quarter~~nine months ended ~~March 31,~~September 30 2002, Adjusted Net Income ("ANI") available to Common Shares and OP ~~units~~Units decreased ~~$10.6~~$16.0 million as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2001.
        For the quarter ended September 30, 2002, ANI available to Common Shares and OP Units decreased $11.7 million as compared to the quarter ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2001.
        The following is a reconciliation of net income available to Common Shares to ANI available to Common Shares and OP Units for the nine months and quarters ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2002 and 2001:

*(1)
Acquisition cost depreciation represents depreciation for the initial cost of the property, including buildings and furniture, fixtures and equipment and depreciation on capital improvements identified in the acquisition underwriting and incurred in the first twenty-four months of ownership when the total cost exceeds $2,000 per unit.

**(2)
~~ANI~~Adjusted Net Income ("ANI") represents net income (loss) (computed in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP")), including gains or losses from sales of real estate, plus acquisition cost depreciation, plus amortization of goodwill, minus the accumulated acquisition cost depreciation on sold properties, plus/minus extraordinary items and plus the cumulative effect of change in accounting principle. Depreciation associated with replacements and capital improvements is deducted in calculating ANI.

        The Company believes that ANI is helpful to investors as a supplemental measure of the operating performance of a real estate company because, along with cash flows from operating activities, financing activities and investing activities, it provides investors an understanding of the ability of the Company to incur and service debt and to make capital expenditures. ANI in and of itself does not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with GAAP and therefore should not
27
be considered an alternative to net income as an indication of the Company's performance or to net cash flows from operating activities as determined by GAAP as a measure of liquidity and is not necessarily indicative of cash available to fund cash needs. The Company's calculation of ANI may differ from the methodology for calculating ANI utilized by other real estate companies and may differ, for example, due to variations among the Company's and other real estate companies' accounting policies for replacement type items and, accordingly, may not be comparable to such other real estate companies.
Funds From Operations
        For the ~~quarter~~nine months ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2002, Funds From Operations ("FFO") available to Common Shares and OP Units decreased ~~$0.1~~$25.0 million as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2001.
        For the quarter ended September 30, 2002, FFO available to Common Shares and OP Units decreased $20.7 million as compared to the quarter ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2001.

FFO represents net income (loss) (computed in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP")), excluding gains or losses from sales of property, plus depreciation and amortization (after adjustments for Partially Owned Properties and Unconsolidated Properties), plus/minus extraordinary items, and plus the cumulative effect of change in accounting principle and impairment charges. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures will be calculated to reflect FFO on the same basis.
        The Company believes that FFO is helpful to investors as a supplemental measure of the operating performance of a real estate company because, along with cash flows from operating activities, financing activities and investing activities, it provides investors an understanding of the ability of the Company to incur and service debt and to make capital expenditures.
