Safe Harbor Language
Certain matters discussed within this press release may be deemed to be forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws. Although
-- risks that our tenants will not pay rent, may vacate early or may file
for bankruptcy or that we may be unable to renew leases or re-let space
at favorable rents as leases expire;
-- risks that we may not be able to proceed with or obtain necessary
approvals for any redevelopment or renovation project, and that
completion of anticipated or ongoing property redevelopments or
renovations may cost more, take more time to complete, or fail to
perform as expected;
-- risks that the number of properties we acquire for our own account, and
therefore the amount of capital we invest in acquisitions, may be
impacted by our real estate partnership;
-- risks normally associated with the real estate industry, including risks
that occupancy levels at our properties and the amount of rent that we
receive from our properties may be lower than expected, that new
acquisitions may fail to perform as expected, that competition for
acquisitions could result in increased prices for acquisitions, that
environmental issues may develop at our properties and result in
unanticipated costs, and, because real estate is illiquid, that we may
not be able to sell properties when appropriate;
-- risks that our growth will be limited if we cannot obtain additional
capital;
-- risks of financing, such as our ability to consummate additional
financings or obtain replacement financing on terms which are acceptable
to us, our ability to meet existing financial covenants and the
limitations imposed on our operations by those covenants, and the
possibility of increases in interest rates that would result in
increased interest expense; and
-- risks related to our status as a real estate investment trust, commonly
referred to as a REIT, for federal income tax purposes, such as the
existence of complex tax regulations relating to our status as a REIT,
the effect of future changes in REIT requirements as a result of new
legislation, and the adverse consequences of the failure to qualify as a
REIT.
Given these uncertainties, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements that we make, including those in this press release. Except as may be required by law, we make no promise to update any of the forward-looking statements as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. You should carefully review the risks and risk factors included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed

(1) See Glossary of Terms.
(2) For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009 , FFO includes
a $0.3 million and a $21.1 million , respectively, charge for
litigation regarding a parcel of land located adjacent to Santana
Row as well as other costs related to the litigation and appeal
process. FFO excluding litigation provision excludes this charge.
(3) Effective January 1, 2009 , we adopted a new accounting standard
which requires us to calculate FFO per diluted share for all
periods presented using the two-class method. The implementation
resulted in no change to FFO per share for the three and nine months
ended September 30, 2008 .
