Gross revenues include revenues from the Company’s continuing and discontinued operations. The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.” This statement addresses financial accounting and reporting for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets and broadens the presentation of discontinued operations in the income statement to include a component of an entity. Accordingly, the results of operations related to these certain properties that have been classified as held for sale or have been disposed of subsequent to December 31, 2001, the effective date of SFAS No. 144, have been reclassified as earnings from discontinued operations. In addition, the Company has also classified revenues and expenses related to the four Investment Properties sold during the quarter ended March 31, 2005 and the one Investment Property held for sale at March 31, 2005, as discontinued operations.

Funds from Operations, commonly referred to as FFO, is a relative non-GAAP financial measure of operating performance of an equity REIT in order to recognize that income-producing real estate historically has not depreciated on the basis determined under GAAP. FFO is defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts and is used by the Company as follows: net earnings (computed in accordance with GAAP) plus depreciation and amortization of assets unique to the real estate industry, excluding gains (or including losses) on the disposition of real estate held for investment, and the Company’s share of these items from the Company’s unconsolidated partnerships.

FFO is generally considered by industry analysts to be the most appropriate measure of operating performance of real estate companies. FFO does not necessarily represent cash provided by operating activities in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered an alternative to net income as an indication of the Company’s operating performance or to cash flow as a measure of liquidity or ability to make distributions. Management considers FFO an appropriate measure of operating performance of an equity REIT because it primarily excludes the assumption that the value of the real estate assets diminishes predictably over time, and because industry analysts have accepted it as an operating performance measure. The Company’s computation of FFO may differ from the methodology for calculating FFO used by other equity REITs, and therefore, may not be comparable to such other REITs.

The Company has earnings from discontinued operations in each of its segments, real estate held for investment and real estate held for sale. All property dispositions from the Company’s held for investment segment are classified as discontinued operations. In addition, certain properties in the Company’s held for sale segment that have generated revenues before disposition are classified as discontinued operations. These held for sale properties have not historically been classified as discontinued operations, therefore, prior period comparable consolidated financial statements have been restated to include these properties in its earnings from discontinued operations. These adjustments resulted in a decrease in the Company’s reported total revenues and total and per share earnings from continuing operations and an increase in the Company’s earnings from discontinued operations. However, the Company’s total and per share net earnings available to common stockholders are not affected.

The following table reconciles FFO to their most directly comparable GAAP measure, net earnings for the years ended December 31:
