(1)  FFO represents  net income or loss  (computed in accordance  with generally
     accepted accounting principles ("GAAP")),  excluding gains (or losses) from
     sales of property, excluding depreciation and amortization relating to real
     property and  including  funds from  operations  for  unconsolidated  joint
     ventures  calculated on the same basis.  AMAC  calculates FFO in accordance
     with the NAREIT  definition.  FFO does not represent  cash  generated  from
     operating  activities  in  accordance  with  GAAP  and is  not  necessarily
     indicative  of cash  available  to  fund  cash  needs.  FFO  should  not be
     considered as an alternative to net income as an indicator of our operating
     performance  or as an  alternative to cash flows as a measure of liquidity.
     Our  management   considers  FFO  a   supplemental   measure  of  operating
     performance,   and,  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.  Since not all
     companies  calculate FFO in a similar fashion,  our calculation,  presented
     above, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other
     companies.

(2)  Includes  properties  classified  as held for sale,  which is  included  in
     discontinued operations in our consolidated statements of income.

(3)  Adjusted FFO excludes the change in fair value of  derivative  instruments,
     net of certain associated costs.
