Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and include all of the information and disclosures required by U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP") for interim reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all of the disclosures required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for fair presentation (including normal recurring accruals) have been included. The consolidated financial statements in this Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010.

The consolidated financial statements reflect certain reclassifications of prior period amounts to conform to the 2011 presentation, principally to reflect the sale and/or treatment as "held for sale/conveyance" of certain operating properties and the treatment thereof as "discontinued operations". The reclassifications had no impact on previously-reported net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders or earnings per share.

Real Estate Investments

Real estate investments are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation. The provision for depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method based upon the estimated useful lives of the respective assets of between 3 and 40 years. Depreciation expense amounted to $9.0 million and $8.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and $25.6 million and $25.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Expenditures for betterments that substantially extend the useful lives of the assets are capitalized. Expenditures for maintenance, repairs, and betterments that do not substantially prolong the normal useful life of an asset are charged to operations as incurred.

Upon the sale (or treatment as "held for sale/conveyance") or other disposition of assets, the cost and related accumulated depreciation and amortization are removed from the accounts (or reclassified) and the resulting gain or impairment loss, if any, are reflected as discontinued operations. In addition, prior periods' financial statements are reclassified to reflect the operations of the properties sold (or treated as "held for sale/conveyance") as discontinued operations.

Real estate investments include costs of ground-up development and redevelopment activities, and construction in progress. Capitalized costs, including interest and other carrying costs during the construction and/or renovation periods, are included in the cost of the related asset and charged to operations through depreciation over the asset's estimated useful life. Interest and financing costs capitalized amounted to $0.9 million and $0.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and $2.0 million and $1.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. A variety of costs are incurred in the acquisition, development and leasing of a property, such as pre-construction costs essential to the development of the property, development costs, construction costs, interest costs, real estate taxes, salaries and related costs, and other costs incurred during the period of development. After a determination is made to capitalize a cost, it is allocated to the specific component of a project that is benefited. The Company ceases capitalization on the portions substantially completed and occupied, or held available for occupancy, and capitalizes only those costs associated with the portions under development. The Company considers a construction project to be substantially completed and held available for occupancy upon the completion of tenant improvements, but not later than one year from cessation of major construction activity.

Management reviews each real estate investment for impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value of a real estate investment may not be recoverable. The review of recoverability is based on an estimate of the future cash flows that are expected to result from the real estate investment's use and eventual disposition. These cash flows consider factors such as expected future operating income, trends and prospects, as well as the effects of leasing demand, competition and other factors. If an impairment event exists due to the projected inability to recover the carrying value of a real estate investment, an impairment loss is recorded to the extent that the carrying value exceeds estimated fair value. Real estate investments held for sale/conveyance are carried at the lower of their respective carrying amounts or estimated fair values, less costs to sell. Depreciation and amortization are suspended during the periods held for sale/conveyance.

During the three months ended March 31, 2010, the Company wrote-off (included in acquisition transaction costs and terminated projects in the consolidated statements of operations) approximately $1.3 million of costs incurred in prior years for a potential development project in Williamsport, Pennsylvania that the Company determined would not go forward.

Conditional asset retirement obligation

A conditional asset retirement obligation is a legal obligation to perform an asset retirement activity in which the timing and/or method of settlement is conditional on a future event that may or may not be within the control of the Company. The Company would record a liability for a conditional asset retirement obligation if the fair value of the obligation can be reasonably estimated. Environmental studies conducted at the time of acquisition with respect to all of the Company's properties did not reveal any material environmental liabilities, and the Company is unaware of any subsequent environmental matters that would have created a material liability. The Company believes that its properties are currently in material compliance with applicable environmental, as well as non-environmental, statutory and regulatory requirements. There were no conditional asset retirement obligation liabilities recorded by the Company during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Fair Value Measurements

The fair value measurement accounting guidance establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes observable and unobservable inputs used to measure fair value into three levels:

· Level 1 – Inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

· Level 2 – Inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.

· Level 3 – Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.

The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1 inputs and the lowest priority to Level 3 inputs. In determining fair value, the Company utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible while also considering counterparty credit risk in the assessment of fair value. Financial liabilities measured at fair value in the consolidated financial statements consist of interest rate swaps. The fair values of interest rate swaps are determined using widely accepted valuation techniques, including discounted cash flow analysis, on the expected cash flows of each derivative. The analysis reflects the contractual terms of the swaps, including the period to maturity, and uses observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves ("significant other observable inputs"). The fair value calculation also includes an amount for risk of non-performance using "significant unobservable inputs" such as estimates of current credit spreads to evaluate the likelihood of default. The Company has concluded, as of September 30, 2011, that the fair value associated with the "significant unobservable inputs" relating to the Company's risk of non-performance was insignificant to the overall fair value of the interest rate swap agreements and, as a result, the Company has determined that the relevant inputs for purposes of calculating the fair value of the interest rate swap agreements, in their entirety, were based upon "significant other observable inputs". Nonfinancial assets and liabilities measured at fair value in the consolidated financial statements consists of real estate held for sale/conveyance- discontinued operations.

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, rents and other receivables, certain other assets, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate fair value. The fair value of the Company's investments ($3.4 million and $0 at September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively) and liabilities related to deferred compensation plans ($3.4 million and $0 at September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively) were determined to be a Level 1 within the valuation hierarchy, and were based on independent values provided by financial institutions. The valuation of the liability for the Company's interest rate swaps ($2.2 million and $1.6 million at September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively), which is measured on a recurring basis, was determined to be a Level 2 within the valuation hierarchy, and was based on independent values provided by financial institutions. The valuation of the assets for the Company's real estate held for sale/conveyance – discontinued operations, which is measured on a nonrecurring basis, have been determined to be (i) a Level 2 within the valuation hierarchy, based on the respective contracts of sale or (ii) Level 3 within the valuation hierarchy, where applicable, based on estimated sales prices determined by discounted cash flow analyses if no contract amounts were as yet being negotiated. The discounted cash flow analyses included all estimated cash inflows and outflows over a specific holding period and where applicable, any estimated debt premiums. These cash flows were comprised of unobservable inputs which included contractual rental revenues and forecasted rental revenues and expenses based upon market conditions and expectations for growth. Capitalization rates and discount rates utilized in these analyses were based upon observable rates that the Company believed to be within a reasonable range of current market rates for the respective properties.

The fair value of the Company's fixed rate mortgage loans was estimated using available market information and discounted cash flows analyses based on borrowing rates the Company believes it could obtain with similar terms and maturities. As of September, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the aggregate fair values of the Company's fixed rate mortgage loans were approximately $541.3 million and $490.1 million, respectively; the carrying values of such loans were $527.2 million and $488.0 million, respectively, at those dates.

The following tables show the hierarchy for those assets measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis as of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively:

		Assets Measured at Fair Value on a
		Non-Recurring Basis
		September 30, 2011
Asset Description		Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total

Real estate held for sale/conveyance	$	-	$	111,835,000	$	131,009,000	$	242,844,000

		Assets Measured at Fair Value on a
		Non-Recurring Basis
		December 31, 2010
Asset Description		Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total
Real estate held for sale/conveyance	$	-	$	22,773,000	$	47,186,000	$	69,959,000	(a)


(a) Excludes $278.8 million relating to properties subsequently treated as " held for sale/conveyance" as of September 30, 2011 and recorded at fair value as of that date.

Intangible Lease Asset/Liability

The Company allocates the fair value of real estate acquired to land, buildings and improvements. In addition, the fair value of in-place leases is allocated to intangible lease assets and liabilities.

The fair value of the tangible assets of an acquired property is determined by valuing the property as if it were vacant, which value is then allocated to land, buildings and improvements based on management's determination of the relative fair values of these assets. In valuing an acquired property's intangibles, factors considered by management include an estimate of carrying costs during the expected lease-up periods, such as real estate taxes, insurance, other operating expenses, and estimates of lost rental revenue during the expected lease-up periods based on its evaluation of current market demand. Management also estimates costs to execute similar leases, including leasing commissions, tenant improvements, legal and other related costs.

The values of acquired above-market and below-market leases are recorded based on the present values (using discount rates which reflect the risks associated with the leases acquired) of the differences between the contractual amounts to be received and management's estimate of market lease rates, measured over the terms of the respective leases that management deemed appropriate at the time of the acquisitions. Such valuations include a consideration of the non-cancellable terms of the respective leases as well as any applicable renewal period(s). The fair values associated with below-market rental renewal options are determined based on the Company's experience and the relevant facts and circumstances that existed at the time of the acquisitions. The values of above-market leases are amortized to rental income over the terms of the respective non-cancelable lease periods. The portion of the values of below-market leases associated with the original non-cancelable lease terms are amortized to rental income over the terms of the respective non-cancelable lease periods. The portion of the values of the leases associated with below-market renewal options that are likely of exercise are amortized to rental income over the respective renewal periods. The value of other intangible assets (including leasing commissions, tenant improvements, etc.) is amortized to expense over the applicable terms of the respective leases. If a lease were to be terminated prior to its stated expiration or not renewed, all unamortized amounts relating to that lease would be recognized in operations at that time.

With respect to the Company's acquisitions, the fair values of in-place leases and other intangibles have been allocated to the intangible asset and liability accounts. Such allocations are preliminary and are based on information and estimates available as of the respective dates of acquisition. As final information becomes available and is refined, appropriate adjustments are made to the purchase price allocations, which are finalized within twelve months of the respective dates of acquisition.

Unamortized intangible lease liabilities that relate to below-market leases amounted to $36.4 million and $40.3 million at September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. Unamortized intangible lease assets that relate to above-market leases amounted to $0.8 million and $0 at September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively.

As a result of recording the intangible lease assets and liabilities, (i) revenues were increased by $1.9 million and $1.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and $4.3 million and $6.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, relating to the amortization of intangible lease liabilities, and (ii) depreciation and amortization expense was increased correspondingly by $2.2 million and $2.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and $5.9 million and $7.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash in banks and short-term investments with original maturities of less than ninety days, and include cash at consolidated joint ventures of $6.9 million and $6.7 million at September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively.

Restricted Cash

The terms of several of the Company's mortgage loans payable require the Company to deposit certain replacement and other reserves with its lenders. Such "restricted cash" is generally available only for property-level requirements for which the reserves have been established, and is not available to fund other property-level or Company-level obligations.

Rents and Other Receivables

Management has determined that all of the Company's leases with its various tenants are operating leases. Rental income with scheduled rent increases is recognized using the straight-line method over the respective non-cancelable terms of the leases. The aggregate excess of rental revenue recognized on a straight-line basis over the contractual base rents is included in straight-line rents on the consolidated balance sheet. Leases also generally contain provisions under which the tenants reimburse the Company for a portion of property operating expenses and real estate taxes incurred, generally attributable to their respective allocable portions of gross leasable area ("GLA"). Such income is recognized in the periods earned. In addition, a limited number of operating leases contain contingent rent provisions under which tenants are required to pay, as additional rent, a percentage of their sales in excess of a specified amount. The Company defers recognition of contingent rental income until those specified sales targets are met. Other contingent fees are recognized when earned.

The Company must make estimates as to the collectability of its accounts receivable related to base rent, straight-line rent, percentage rent, expense reimbursements and other revenues. When management analyzes accounts receivable and evaluates the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts, it considers such things as historical bad debts, tenant creditworthiness, current economic trends, current developments relevant to a tenant's business specifically and to its business category generally, and changes in tenants' payment patterns. The allowance for doubtful accounts was $4.6 million and $5.4 million at September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. The provision for doubtful accounts (included in operating, maintenance and management expenses) was $0.5 million and $0.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and $1.5 million and $1.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents in excess of insured amounts and tenant receivables. The Company places its cash and cash equivalents with high quality financial institutions. Management performs ongoing credit evaluations of its tenants and requires certain tenants to provide security deposits and/or suitable guarantees.

Other Assets

Other assets at September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 are comprised of the following:

	September 30,	December 31,
	2011	2010

Prepaid expenses	$ 9,922,000	$ 5,258,000
Investments and cumulative mark-to-market adjustments
related to stock-based compensation	3,421,000	2,101,000
Property and other deposits	1,370,000	1,527,000
Leasehold improvements, furniture and fixtures	1,037,000	525,000
Intangible lease assets (i)	820,000	-
	$ 16,570,000	$ 9,411,000

(i) Represents unamortized balances relating to above-market leases resulting from
purchase accounting allocations.

Deferred Charges, Net

Deferred charges at September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 are net of accumulated amortization and are comprised of the following:

	September 30,	December 31,
	2011	2010
Lease origination costs (i)	$ 13,496,000	$ 13,282,000
Financing costs (ii)	6,688,000	9,623,000
Other	709,000	1,551,000
	$ 20,893,000	$ 24,456,000

(i) Includes unamortized balances of intangible lease assets ($5.6 million and $5.9 million, respectively) resulting from purchase accounting allocations.
(ii) Represents costs incurred in connection with the Company's credit facilities and other long-term debt.

Deferred charges are amortized over the terms of the related agreements. Amortization expense related to deferred charges (including amortization of deferred financing costs included in non-operating income and expense) amounted to $1.9 million and $4.9 million relating to for the three months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and $5.4 million and $8.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively (the amounts for the 2010 periods include the $2.6 million accelerated write-off related to the reduction in commitments under the stabilized property credit facility).

Income Taxes

The Company has elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). A REIT will generally not be subject to federal income taxation on that portion of its income that qualifies as REIT taxable income, to the extent that it distributes at least 90% of such REIT taxable income to its shareholders and complies with certain other requirements. As of September 30, 2011, the Company was in compliance with all REIT requirements.

The Company follows a two-step approach for evaluating uncertain tax positions. Recognition (step one) occurs when an enterprise concludes that a tax position, based solely on its technical merits, is more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination. Measurement (step two) determines the amount of benefit that more-likely-than-not will be realized upon settlement. Derecognition of a tax position that was previously recognized would occur when a company subsequently determines that a tax position no longer meets the more-likely-than-not threshold of being sustained. The use of a valuation allowance as a substitute for derecognition of tax positions is prohibited. The Company has not identified any uncertain tax positions which would require an accrual.

Derivative Financial Instruments

The Company occasionally utilizes derivative financial instruments, principally interest rate swaps, to manage its exposure to fluctuations in interest rates. The Company has established policies and procedures for risk assessment, and the approval, reporting and monitoring of derivative financial instruments. Derivative financial instruments must be effective in reducing the Company's interest rate risk exposure in order to qualify for hedge accounting. When the terms of an underlying transaction are modified, or when the underlying hedged item ceases to exist, all changes in the fair value of the instrument are marked-to-market with changes in value included in net income for each period until the derivative financial instrument matures or is settled. Any derivative financial instrument used for risk management that does not meet the hedging criteria is marked-to-market with the changes in value included in net income. The Company has not entered into, and does not plan to enter into, derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. Additionally, the Company has a policy of entering into derivative contracts only with major financial institutions. On January 20, 2010, the Company paid approximately $5.5 million to terminate interest rate swaps applicable to the financing for its development joint venture project in Stroudsburg, Pennsylvania.

As of September 30, 2011, the Company believes it has no significant risk associated with non-performance of the financial institutions which are the counterparties to its derivative contracts. Additionally, based on the rates in effect as of September 30, 2011, if a counterparty were to default, the Company would receive a net interest benefit. At September 30, 2011, the Company had approximately $36.2 million of mortgage loans payable subject to interest rate swaps. Such interest rate swaps converted LIBOR-based variable rates to fixed annual rates of 5.2% and 6.5% per annum. At that date, the Company had accrued liabilities of $2.2 million (included in accounts payable and accrued expenses on the consolidated balance sheet) relating to the fair value of interest rate swaps applicable to existing mortgage loans payable. Charges and/or credits relating to the changes in fair values of such interest rate swaps are made to accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income, noncontrolling interests (minority interests in consolidated joint ventures and limited partners' interest), or operations (included in interest expense), as appropriate.

Limited Partners Interest In Operating Partnership (Mezz OP Units)

The Company follows the accounting guidance related to noncontrolling interests in consolidated financial statements, which clarifies that a noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary (minority interests or certain limited partners' interest, in the case of the Company), subject to the classification and measurement of redeemable securities, is an ownership interest in a consolidated entity which should be reported as equity in the parent company's consolidated financial statements. The guidance requires a reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances of equity attributable to noncontrolling interests and disclosure, on the face of the consolidated income statement, of those amounts of consolidated net income attributable to the noncontrolling interests. The Company classifies the balances related to minority interests in consolidated joint ventures and limited partners' interest in the Operating Partnership into the consolidated equity accounts, as appropriate (certain non-controlling interests of the Company are classified in the mezzanine section of the balance sheet (the "Mezz OP Units") as such Mezz OP Units do not meet the requirements for equity classification, as certain of the holders of OP Units have registration rights that provide such holders with the right to demand registration under the federal securities laws of the common stock of the Company issuable upon conversion of such OP Units). The Company adjusts the carrying value of the Mezz OP Units each period to equal the greater of its historical carrying value or its redemption value. Through September 30, 2011, there have been no cumulative net adjustments recorded to the carrying amounts of the Mezz OP Units.

The following is an analysis of the activity relating to the Mezz OP units:

Management Transition Charges

In June 2011, the Company's then Chairman of the Board, CEO and President retired, and the employment of the Company's then Chief Financial Officer ended. Pursuant to their respective employment and/or separation agreements, (a) they are to receive an aggregate of approximately $3.7 million in cash severance payments (including the cost of related payroll taxes and benefits, and substantially all of which has been funded), and (b) all of their unvested restricted share grants became vested and all related amounts were written off (an aggregate of approximately $2.0 million – see "Stock-Based Compensation" below). Together with approximately $0.8 million of other costs, primarily professional fees and expenses related to the hiring of a new President/CEO and Chief Financial Officer, the Company recorded an aggregate of approximately $6.5 million as "management transition charges".

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company's 2004 Stock Incentive Plan (the "Incentive Plan") establishes the procedures for the granting of incentive stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted shares, performance units and performance shares. The maximum number of shares of the Company's common stock that may be issued pursuant to the Incentive Plan is 4,850,000 (including a 2,100,000 share increase approved by shareholders on June 15, 2011), and the maximum number of shares that may be granted to a participant in any calendar year may not exceed 250,000. All grants issued pursuant to the Incentive Plan are "restricted stock grants" which generally vest (i) at the end of designated time periods for time-based grants, or (ii) upon the completion of a designated period of performance for performance-based grants and satisfaction of performance criteria. Time–based grants are valued according to the market price for the Company's common stock at the date of grant. The value of all grants is being expensed on a straight-line basis over the respective vesting periods (irrespective of achievement of the performance grants) adjusted, as applicable, for forfeiture assumptions. Those grants of restricted shares that are transferred to Rabbi Trusts are classified as treasury stock on the Company's consolidated balance sheet, and have been adjusted, as applicable, for fluctuations in the market value of the Company's common stock. For performance-based grants, the Company generally engages an independent appraisal company to determine the value of the shares at the date of grant, taking into account the underlying contingency risks associated with the performance criteria.

In January 2009, the Company issued 218,000 shares of common stock as performance-based grants, based on the total annual return on an investment in the Company's common stock ("TSR") over the three-year period ending December 31, 2011, with 75% to vest if such TSR is equal to, or greater than an average of 6% TSR per year on the Company's common stock, and 25% to vest based on a comparison of TSR for such three years to the Company's peer group. The independent appraisal determined the values of the performance-based shares to be $5.44 and $6.48 per share, respectively, compared to a market price at the date of grant of $7.02 per share. After the accelerated vesting in June 2011 of certain of these shares, as discussed below, 82,000 shares remain of the 2009 performance-based award.

In January 2010, the Company issued 227,000 shares of common stock as performance-based grants. As modified in September 2010, one-half of these amounts will vest upon the satisfaction of the following conditions: (a) if the TSR on the Company's common stock is at least an average of 6% per year for the three years ending December 31, 2012, and (b) if there is a positive comparison of TSR on the Company's common stock to the median of the TSR for the Company's peer group for the three years ending December 31, 2012. The independent appraisal determined the values of the category (a) and (b) performance-based shares to be $4.56 per share and $6.00 per share, respectively, compared to a market price at the date of grant of $6.70 per share. After the accelerated vesting in June 2011 of certain of these shares, as discussed below, 84,000 shares remain of the 2010 performance-based award.

In January 2011, the Company issued 275,000 shares of common stock as performance-based grants. One-half of these amounts will vest upon the satisfaction of the following conditions: (a) if the TSR on the Company's common stock is at least an average of 8% per year for the three years ending December 31, 2013, and (b) if there is a positive comparison of TSR on the Company's common stock to the median of the TSR for the Company's peer group for the three years ending December 31, 2013. The independent appraisal determined the values of the category (a) and (b) performance-based shares to be $4.40 per share and $5.91 per share, respectively, compared to a market price at the date of grant of $6.54 per share. After the accelerated vesting in June 2011 of certain of these shares, as discussed below, 123,000 shares remain of the 2011 performance-based award.

In connection with the retirement of the Company's Chairman of the Board, CEO and President, and the end of the employment of the Company's Chief Financial Officer (see "Management Transition Charges" above), all of their outstanding restricted share grants, consisting of time-based grants (284,000 shares) and performance-based grants (422,000 shares) became vested (an aggregate of 706,000 shares), and were expensed in full at the then market value of the shares (an aggregate of approximately $2.0 million).

The Company's new President and CEO is to receive restricted share grants totaling 2.5 million shares, one-half of which are to be time-based, vesting upon the seventh anniversary of the date of grant (vesting on June 15, 2018), and the other half to be performance-based, to be earned if the TSR on the Company's common stock is at least an average of 6.5% per year for the seven years ending June 15, 2018. The independent appraisal determined the value of the performance-based award to be $4.39 per share compared to a market price at the date of grant of $4.98 per share. As a result of existing limitations within the Incentive Plan, only 250,000 shares have been issued, 1,750,000 shares are being accounted for as an "equity award", and 500,000 shares are being accounted for as a "liability award". The values of the equity and liability awards are being expensed on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. Consistent with such awards to other recipients, dividends are paid on all the shares, including the equity and liability award shares, with the dividends paid on the equity award shares treated as distributions to common shareholders and included in the statement of equity, and the dividends paid on the liability award shares treated as compensation and included in the statement of operations. In addition, with respect to the liability award, adjustments to reflect changes in the fair value of the award (based on changes in the market price of the Company's common stock) are also charged to operations. It is the Company's intention to seek a modification of the terms of the Incentive Plan (or to adopt a new stock incentive plan) so as to permit the grant of the entire 2.5 million shares. Until such changes are effectuated, the Company will issue 250,000 shares each calendar year, thereby reducing the liability established for the equity award. If, by June 15, 2018, the entire 2.5 million shares have not been issued, the parties have agreed to satisfy any remaining Company obligations on a mutually-agreeable economic basis.

The Company's new Chief Financial Officer received a time-based restricted share grant totaling 137,000 shares, vesting 25% annually on each of the next four anniversary dates of June 7, 2011.

In addition to the above, there were other time-based restricted shares issued, which amounted to 0 shares and 1,000 shares for the three months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and 299,000 shares and 279,000 shares for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The following table sets forth certain stock-based compensation information for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively:

At September 30, 2011, 2.3 million shares remained available for grants pursuant to the Incentive Plan (before consideration of the 1,750,000 shares and 500,000 shares, respectively, applicable to the equity and liability awards), and an aggregate of $13.9 million applicable to all such grants and awards remains to be expensed over various periods ending in June 2018.

Earnings/ Dividends Per Share

Basic earnings per share ("EPS") is calculated by dividing net income (loss) attributable to the Company's common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period including participating securities (restricted shares issued pursuant to the Company's stock-based compensation program are considered participating securities, as such shares have non-forfeitable rights to receive dividends). Unvested restricted shares are not allocated net losses and/or any excess of dividends declared over net income, as such amounts are allocated entirely to the common shareholders. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, the Company had 3.0 million and 2.1 million, respectively, weighted average unvested restricted shares outstanding (including the weighted average impact of the 2.0 million shares awarded to the Company's new President/CEO in June 2011). EPS for the 2010 periods is calculated based on the data presented in the consolidated statements of operations for those periods. The following table provides a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the EPS calculations for the 2011 periods:

	Three months ended	Nine months ended
	September 30, 2011	September 30, 2011
Numerator
(Loss) from continuing operations	$ (7,213,000)	$ (21,123,000)
Preferred distribution requirements	(3,580,000)	(10,621,000)
Less, net loss attribuatble to noncontrolling interests	4,740,000	5,626,000
Less, earnings allocated to unvested shares	(266,000)	(546,000)
Loss from continuing operations available for common shareholders	(6,319,000)	(26,664,000)
Results from discontinued operations	(64,052,000)	(83,964,000)
Net (loss) available for common shareholders, basic and diluted	$ (70,371,000)	$ (110,628,000)

Denominator
Weighted average number of vested common shares outstanding	66,800,000	66,253,000

Earnings (loss) per common share, basic and diluted
Continuing operations	$ (0.09)	(0.40)
Discontinued operations	(0.96)	(1.27)
	$ (1.05)	$ (1.67)

Fully-diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into shares of common stock. The net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests of the Operating Partnership has been excluded from the numerator and the related OP Units have been excluded from the denominator for the purpose of calculating diluted EPS as there would have been no effect had such amounts been included. The weighted average number of OP Units outstanding for the three months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 were 1,415,000 and 1,892,000, respectively, and the weighted average number of OP Units outstanding for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 were 1,415,000 and 1,941,000, respectively. In addition, warrants for the purchase of OP Units (83,000 for all periods) have been excluded as they were anti-dilutive.

Dividends to common shareholders declared were $6.3 million ($0.09 per share) and $5.9 million ($0.09 per share) for the three months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and $18.4 million ($0.27 per share) and $11.8 million ($0.18 per share) for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Recently-Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU No. 2011-04, "Fair Value Measurement: Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S GAAP and IFRS". This update defines fair value, clarifies a framework to measure fair value, and requires specific disclosures of fair value measurements. The guidance is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after January 1, 2012 and is required to be applied prospectively. The Company does not expect adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on its financial condition or results of operations.

In June 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2011-05, "Presentation of Comprehensive Income". This standard eliminates the current requirement to report other comprehensive income and its components in the statement of equity and instead requires the components of other comprehensive income to be presented either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. The guidance is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after January 1, 2012 and is required to be applied retrospectively. Other than presentation in the financial statements, the adoption of this guidance will have no effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations.
