| • | Same-property net operating income increased by 3.8% on an accrual basis and 3.0% on a cash basis. |

Funds From Operations (“FFO”) and Core FFO increased for the three months ended December 31, 2012 compared with the same period in 2011 primarily due to an increase in the Company’s net operating income. Increases in net operating income also resulted in an increase in Core FFO for the twelve months ended December 31, 2012 compared with the same period in 2011. The increase in net operating income in 2012 compared to 2011 was a result of higher occupancy in the Company’s portfolio and the benefit of a full year of operations from the Company’s 2011 property acquisitions.
FFO decreased for the twelve months ended December 31, 2012 compared with the same period in 2011 due to costs associated with the Company’s internal investigation, certain remedial and enhancement measures implemented in response to such investigation and debt extinguishment charges. In 2012, the Company incurred $3.4 million of legal and accounting fees associated with the internal investigation and $1.1 million of personnel separation costs. In the second quarter of 2012, the Company recorded $13.2 million of debt extinguishment charges, primarily related to the prepayment of its senior notes.
A reconciliation between Core FFO and FFO available to common shareholders for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 is presented below (in thousands, except per share amounts):

On a year-over-year basis, the increase in both the leased and occupied percentages reflects the lease up of previously vacant space in the Company’s portfolio. A list of the Company’s properties, as well as additional information regarding the Company’s results of operations can be found in the Company’s Fourth Quarter 2012 Supplemental Financial Report, which is posted on the Company’s website, www.first-potomac.com.

Property Operations
During the fourth quarter, the Company executed 609,000 square feet of leases, which consisted of 291,000 square feet of new leases and 318,000 square feet of renewal leases. The 318,000 square feet of renewal leases in the quarter reflects a 58% retention rate, which is a result of a large number of move-outs in the Company’s Maryland region. For the year ended December 31, 2012, the Company executed 2.2 million square feet of leases, which included 921,000 square feet of new leases.
Same-property net operating income (“Same-Property NOI”) increased 6.3% and 3.8% for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2012, respectively, compared with the same periods in 2011. The increase in Same-Property NOI was primarily due to an increase in occupancy at Redland Corporate Center and Atlantic Corporate Park, both of which were acquired with significant vacancy.
A reconciliation of net income (loss) to Same-Property NOI and a definition and statement of purpose are included below in the financial tables accompanying this press release and under “Non-GAAP Financial Measures,” respectively.
Dispositions
On November 7, 2012, the Company sold two buildings, totaling 39,000 square feet, at Owings Mills Business Park for net proceeds of $3.5 million. The operating results of the property are reflected as discontinued operations in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations for each of the periods presented in this press release.
Financing Activity
On October 1, 2012, the Company repaid a $23.4 million mortgage loan that encumbered Crossways Commerce Center and a $14.7 million mortgage loan that encumbered Newington Business Park Center with proceeds from a draw under its unsecured revolving credit facility.
On October 17, 2012, the Company placed a $22.0 million mortgage loan on 1005 First Street, NE, a consolidated joint venture in which the Company has a 97% ownership interest. The mortgage loan incurs interest at a variable rate of LIBOR plus a spread of 2.75% (with a floor of 5.0%) and matures in October 2014, with a one-year extension option at the Company’s discretion. The Company used a portion of its share of the proceeds from the mortgage loan, which totaled $19.1 million, to pay down $16.0 million of the outstanding balance under its unsecured revolving credit facility.
On December 27, 2012, the Company repaid $10 million of the outstanding balance under its secured term loan with proceeds from a draw under its unsecured revolving credit facility.
On January 2, 2013, the Company repaid a $3.2 million mortgage loan that encumbered Prosperity Business Center with proceeds from a draw under its unsecured revolving credit facility.
On February 7, 2013, the Company entered into a senior secured multi-tranche term loan facility (the “Bridge Loan”) with KeyBank National Association and borrowed $30.0 million under the Bridge Loan to repay a $15.4 million mortgage loan that encumbered Cedar Hill and a $13.3 million mortgage loan that encumbered the Merrill Lynch Building. The Bridge Loan has a borrowing capacity of up to $40.0 million, which can be drawn in four separate tranches before March 31, 2013. The Bridge Loan has a variable interest rate of LIBOR plus a spread of 2.15% and matures in November 2013, with a three-month extension at the Company’s option. The Company can repay all or a portion of the Bridge Loan at any time during the term of the loan. In March 2013, the Company intends to use proceeds from a draw under the Bridge Loan to repay a $7.6 million mortgage loan that encumbers Crossways Commerce Center.
Page 3 of 11
On February 8, 2013, the Company and its bank lenders amended its unsecured revolving credit facility and existing term loans to provide increased flexibility on a short-term basis under certain financial covenants, specifically extending the December 31, 2012 requirements under the consolidated total leverage, unencumbered pool leverage and consolidated debt yield covenants in the near term, and proactively addressing the impact that the potential industrial portfolio sale would have on the covenants relating to tangible net worth and dispositions as a percentage of gross asset value.
Industrial Portfolio Sale
As previously announced in connection with its updated strategic and capital plan, the Company is currently marketing the majority of its industrial properties in a portfolio sale through Eastdil Secured. The industrial portfolio represents approximately 4.3 million square feet, 2.6 million square feet of which are located in Southern Virginia.
The Company believes that a portfolio sale of its industrial properties provides the most efficient means of de-levering its balance sheet, while preserving net asset value for shareholders. Potential proceeds from the sale of the industrial properties will largely be utilized to repay outstanding debt. In addition to providing capital to improve balance sheet flexibility, the potential sale of the Company’s industrial portfolio is expected to strengthen First Potomac’s operating metrics, and further streamline the Company’s focus on office properties, which would represent more than 50% of total revenues after the sale.
The Company can provide no assurances regarding the timing or pricing of the industrial portfolio sale, or that the sale will occur at all.
Balance Sheet
The Company had $933.9 million of debt outstanding at December 31, 2012, of which $418.9 million was fixed-rate debt and $350.0 million was variable-rate debt that had been swapped to a fixed interest rate. The remainder of the Company’s debt, $165.0 million, was variable-rate debt that consisted of borrowings under its secured term loan and unsecured revolving credit facility.
Dividends
On January 22, 2013, the Company declared a dividend of $0.15 per common share, equating to an annualized dividend of $0.60 per common share. The dividend was paid on February 15, 2013 to common shareholders of record as of February 8, 2013. The Company also declared a dividend of $0.484375 per share on its Series A Preferred Shares. The dividend was paid on February 15, 2013 to preferred shareholders of record as of February 8, 2013.
Core FFO Guidance
The Company issued its full-year 2013 Core FFO guidance of $1.17 to $1.23 per diluted share. The following guidance does not include the impact of the industrial portfolio sale. At this time, the Company is not providing any guidance with respect to the timing or anticipated proceeds from the industrial portfolio sale. The Company’s guidance is also based on a number of other assumptions, many of which are outside the Company’s control and all of which are subject to change. The Company may change its guidance as actual and anticipated results vary from these assumptions.

Based on annualized cash basis rent, the Company’s portfolio consists of 43% office properties, 34% business parks and 23% industrial properties.

FPO common shares (NYSE:FPO) and preferred shares (NYSE:FPO-PA) are publicly traded on the New York Stock Exchange.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Funds from Operations – Funds from operations (“FFO”) represents net income (computed in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”)), excluding gains (losses) on sales of real estate and impairments of real estate assets, plus real estate-related depreciation and amortization and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. On October 31, 2011, NAREIT issued revised guidance regarding the exclusion of impairment write-downs of depreciable assets reported in FFO. As a result, the Company began excluding impairment losses from FFO in the fourth quarter of 2011 and has restated FFO from prior periods to exclude such charges consistent with NAREIT’s guidance. The Company also excludes, from its FFO calculation, any depreciation and amortization related to third parties from its consolidated joint ventures. The Company considers FFO a useful measure of performance for an equity REIT because it facilitates an understanding of the operating performance of its properties without giving effect to real estate depreciation and amortization, which assume that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, the Company believes that FFO provides a meaningful indication of its performance. The Company also considers FFO an appropriate performance measure given its wide use by investors and analysts. The Company computes FFO in accordance with standards established by the Board of Governors of NAREIT in its March 1995 White Paper (as amended in November 1999, April 2002 and January 2012), which may differ from the methodology for calculating FFO utilized by other equity real estate investment trusts (“REITs”) and, accordingly, may not be comparable to such other REITs. Further, FFO does not represent amounts available for management’s discretionary use because of needed capital replacement or expansion, debt service obligations or other commitments and uncertainties, nor is it indicative of funds available to fund the Company’s cash needs, including its ability to make distributions. The Company presents FFO per diluted share calculations that are based on the outstanding dilutive common shares plus the outstanding Operating Partnership units for the periods presented.
The Company’s presentation of FFO in accordance with the NAREIT white paper, or as adjusted by the Company, should not be considered as an alternative to net income (computed in accordance with GAAP) as an indicator of the Company’s financial performance or to cash flow from operating activities (computed in accordance with GAAP) as an indicator of its liquidity. The Company’s FFO calculations are reconciled to net income in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations included in this release.
Core FFO – Management believes that the computation of FFO in accordance with NAREIT’s definition includes certain items that are not indicative of the results provided by the Company’s operating portfolio and affect the comparability of the Company’s period-over-period performance. These items include, but are not limited to, gains and losses on the retirement of debt, legal and accounting costs related to the Company’s internal investigation, personnel separations costs, contingent consideration charges and acquisition costs. The Company provides a reconciliation of FFO to Core FFO in the financial tables accompanying this press release.
Page 6 of 11
NOI – The Company defines net operating income (“NOI”) as operating revenues (rental income, tenant reimbursements and other income) less property and related expenses (property expenses, real estate taxes and insurance). Management believes that NOI is a useful measure of the Company’s property operating performance as it provides a performance measure of the revenues and expenses directly associated with owning, operating, developing and redeveloping office and industrial properties, and provides a perspective not immediately apparent from net income or FFO. Other REITs may use different methodologies for calculating NOI, and accordingly, the Company’s NOI may not be comparable to other REITs. The Company’s NOI calculations are reconciled to total revenues and total operating expenses at the end of this release.
Same-Property NOI – Same-Property Net Operating Income (“Same-Property NOI”), defined as operating revenues (rental, tenant reimbursements and other revenues) less operating expenses (property operating expenses, real estate taxes and insurance) from the properties owned by the Company for the entirety of the periods compared, is a primary performance measure the Company uses to assess the results of operations at its properties. As an indication of the Company’s operating performance, Same-Property NOI should not be considered an alternative to net income calculated in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation of the Company’s Same-Property NOI to net income from its consolidated statements of operations is presented below. The Same-Property NOI results exclude corporate-level expenses, as well as certain transactions, such as the collection of termination fees, as these items vary significantly period-over-period thus impacting trends and comparability. Also, the Company eliminates depreciation and amortization expense, which are property level expenses, in computing Same-Property NOI as these are non-cash expenses that are based on historical cost accounting assumptions and do not offer the investor significant insight into the operations of the property. This presentation allows management and investors to distinguish whether growth or declines in net operating income are a result of increases or decreases in property operations or the acquisition of additional properties. While this presentation provides useful information to management and investors, the results below should be read in conjunction with the results from the consolidated statements of operations to provide a complete depiction of total Company performance.
Forward Looking Statements
The forward-looking statements contained in this press release, including statements regarding the Company’s 2013 Core FFO guidance and related assumptions, the potential sale of the Company’s industrial portfolio and the timing of such sale, and anticipated debt repayment, are subject to various risks and uncertainties. Although the Company believes the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, there can be no assurance that its expectations will be achieved. Certain factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the Company’s expectations include changes in general or regional economic conditions; the Company’s ability to timely lease or re-lease space at current or anticipated rents; changes in interest rates; changes in operating costs; the Company’s ability to complete acquisitions on acceptable terms; the Company’s ability to manage its current debt levels and repay or refinance its indebtedness upon maturity or other required payment dates; the Company’s ability to maintain financial covenant compliance under its debt agreements; the Company’s ability to remediate the material weakness in its internal controls over financial reporting described in its 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011 and to re-establish and maintain effective internal controls over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures; the impact of the Company’s recent internal investigation, including any remedial actions and enhancement measures implemented in response to the internal investigation; the Company’s ability to obtain debt and/or financing on attractive terms, or at all; changes in the assumptions underlying the Company’s earnings and Core FFO guidance and other risks detailed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K and described from time to time in the Company’s filings with the SEC. Many of these factors are beyond the Company’s ability to control or predict. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of performance. For forward-looking statements herein, the Company claims the protection of the safe harbor for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The Company assumes no obligation to update or supplement forward-looking statements that become untrue because of subsequent events.
