- ------------
(1) Weighted average number of shares outstanding excludes shares issuable upon
    conversion of outstanding Operating Partnership ("OP") units and includes
    the dilutive effect of outstanding options. Income allocable to holders of
    OP units is included in minority interest.
(2) The White Paper on Funds from Operations approved by the Board of Governors
    of NAREIT in March 1995 defines Funds from Operations as net income (loss)
    (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains (or losses) from debt
    restructuring and sales of properties, plus real estate related
    depreciation and amortization and after adjustments for unconsolidated
    partnerships and joint ventures. The Company believes that Funds from
    Operations is helpful to investors as a measure of the performance of an
    equity REIT because, along with cash flows from operating activities,
    financing activities, and investing activities, it provides investors with
    an indication of the ability of the Company to incur and service debt, to
    make capital expenditures and to fund other cash needs. The Company
    computes Funds from Operations in accordance with standards established by
    NAREIT which may not be comparable to Funds from Operations reported by
    other REITs that do not define the term in accordance with the current
    NAREIT definition or that interpret the current NAREIT definition
    differently than the Company. Funds from Operations does not represent
    cash generated from operating activities in accordance with GAAP and
    should not be considered as an alternative to net income (determined in
    accordance with GAAP) as an indication of the Company's financial
    performance or to cash flow from operating activities (determined in
    accordance with GAAP) as a measure of the Company's liquidity, nor is it
    indicative of funds available to fund the Company's cash needs, including
    its ability to make cash distributions.
(3) EBITDA is defined as operating income before interest expense, income
    taxes, depreciation and amortization. The Company believes EBITDA is
    useful to investors as an indicator of the Company's ability to service
    debt and pay cash distributions. EBITDA, as calculated by the Company, may
    not be comparable to EBITDA reported by other REITs that do not define
    EBITDA exactly as the Company defines the term. EBITDA does not represent
    cash generated from operating activities determined in accordance with
    GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to operating income or
    net income determined in accordance with GAAP as an indicator of
    performance or as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities
    as an indicator of liquidity.
