Explanation of Responses: |
1. On July 20, 2010, the Issuer paid a special dividend of $1.50 per share on its outstanding common stock. Under the terms of the Issuer's Equity Plan for Directors (the "Plan"), any cash dividend otherwise payable on unvested restricted common stock granted under the Plan is automatically reinvested on behalf of any holder of the restricted common stock in additional shares of restricted common stock of the Issuer. The shares in this column represent such additional shares of restricted common stock reinvested on behalf of the Reporting Person. |
2. Such shares of Common Stock are beneficially owned by the Helen Zell Revocable Trust ("HZRT"). Samuel Zell's spouse, Helen Zell, is the trustee of HZRT. Samuel Zell disclaims beneficial ownership of such shares held by HZRT except to the extent of his pecuniary interest therein. |
3. Such shares are beneficially owned by SZ Investments, L.L.C. ("SZI"). SZI is indirectly owned by trusts established for the benefit of Samuel Zell and members of his family (the "Trusts"). The Trustee of the Trusts is Chai Trust Company, LLC, of which Samuel Zell is neither an officer nor a director, and thus he disclaims beneficial ownership of such shares except to the extent of his pecuniary interest therein. |
4. Such shares are beneficially owned by EGI-Fund (05-07) Investors, L.L.C. ("05-07"), which is indirectly owned by the Trusts and thus Samuel Zell disclaims beneficial ownership of such shares except to the extent of his pecuniary interest therein. |
