(1) Adjusted for loss on extinguishment of debt in 2Q05 and impairment
    of assets in 3Q04.

The company had a total outstanding debt balance of $1.4 billion at September 30, 2005, as compared with $1.1 billion at September 30, 2004, and stockholders' equity of $1.3 billion. At September 30, 2005, the company's debt to total book capitalization ratio was 51% and the debt to total market capitalization ratio was 37%. For the nine months ended September 30, 2005, the company's coverage ratio of EBITDA to interest was 3.25 to 1.00 and the coverage ratio of EBITDA to fixed charges was 2.58 to 1.00, after adjusting for the one-time debt extinguishment charge of $18.4 million in the second quarter of 2005.

Straight-line Rent. The company recorded $0.1 million and $4.1 million of straight-line rent for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005, respectively. Straight-line rent is net of $2.8 million and $6.0 million in cash payments outside normal monthly rental payments for the three and nine month periods, respectively.

Outlook for 2005. The company is refining its 2005 net new investment guidance to a range of $125 to $175 million from $100 to $200 million. The net new investment guidance excludes approximately $300 million of portfolio acquisitions currently in underwriting with an average yield of 8.25%. All new investments will primarily comprise leases that will not require rents to be straight-lined. The company currently expects to report net income available to common stockholders in the range of $1.02 to $1.04 per diluted share. Excluding the loss on extinguishment of debt and any additional one-time items, the company is also narrowing its guidance for 2005 FFO to a range of $2.91 to $2.93 from $2.90 to $2.98 per diluted share. The company now expects to record straight-line rent of approximately $7 million for the full year 2005, before any additional cash payments outside normal monthly rental payments, and is revising its 2005 FAD guidance to a range of $2.78 to $2.80 from $2.72 to $2.80 per diluted share. The company also anticipates that general and administrative expenses will total between $17.8 million and $18.3 million for the full year 2005. For the fourth quarter of 2005, the company has assumed: (1) gross investments of $35 to $65 million at an average initial yield of 9.0% occurring on average during the latter half of the fourth quarter; (2) dispositions of $100 to $150 million at an average yield of 9.25%; (3) any proceeds from dispositions are used to pay down the company's outstanding line of credit balance; (4) general and administrative expenses of $4.8 to $5.3 million; and (5) no additional capital raising activities outside of the company's DRIP plan.

The company's guidance does not account for any impairments or unanticipated additions to the loan loss reserve. Additionally, the company will be managed to maintain investment grade status with a capital structure consistent with its current profile. Please see Exhibit 15 for a reconciliation of the outlook for net income to FFO and FAD.

Supplemental Reporting Measures. The company believes that net income, as defined by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP), is the most appropriate earnings measurement. However, the company considers funds from operations (FFO) and funds available for distribution (FAD) to be useful supplemental measures of its operating performance. Historical cost accounting for real estate assets in accordance with U.S. GAAP implicitly assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time as evidenced by the provision for depreciation. However, since real estate values have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, many industry investors and analysts have considered presentations of operating results for real estate companies that use historical cost accounting to be insufficient. In response, the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (NAREIT) created FFO as a supplemental measure of operating performance for REITs that excludes historical cost depreciation from net income. FFO, as defined by NAREIT, means net income, computed in accordance with U.S. GAAP, excluding gains (or losses) from sales of real estate, plus depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. FAD represents FFO excluding the non-cash straight-line rental adjustments.

EBITDA stands for earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. Additionally, the company excludes the non-cash provision for loan losses. The company believes that EBITDA, along with net income and cash flow provided from operating activities, is an important supplemental measure because it provides additional information to assess and evaluate the performance of its operations. Additionally, restrictive covenants in the company's long-term debt arrangements contain financial ratios based on EBITDA. The company primarily utilizes EBITDA to measure its interest coverage ratio which represents EBITDA divided by interest expense.

In October 2003, NAREIT informed its member companies that the SEC had changed its position on certain aspects of the NAREIT FFO definition, including impairment charges. Previously, the SEC accepted NAREIT's view that impairment charges were effectively an early recognition of an expected loss on an impending sale of property and thus should be excluded from FFO similar to other gains and losses on sales. However, the SEC's clarified interpretation is that recurring impairments taken on real property may not be added back to net income in the calculation of FFO and FAD. Although the company has adopted this recommendation, it has also disclosed FFO and FAD adjusted for the impairment charge in 2004 for enhanced clarity.

In April 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement No. 145 that requires gains and losses on extinguishments of debt to be classified as income or loss from continuing operations rather than as extraordinary items as previously required under Statement No. 4. The company adopted the standard effective January 1, 2003 and has properly reflected the current quarter loss on extinguishment of debt which may not be added back to net income in the calculation of FFO. Although the company has adopted this treatment, it has also disclosed FFO, FAD and EBITDA adjusted for the loss on extinguishment of debt in 2005 for enhanced clarity.

FFO, FAD and EBITDA are financial measures that are widely used by investors, equity and debt analysts and rating agencies in the valuation, comparison, rating and investment recommendations of companies. The company's management uses these financial measures to facilitate internal and external comparisons to historical operating results, in making operating decisions and for budget planning purposes. Additionally, FFO and FAD are utilized by the Board of Directors to evaluate management. FFO, FAD and EBITDA do not represent net income or cash flow provided from operating activities as determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP and should not be considered as alternative measures of profitability or liquidity. Finally, FFO, FAD and EBITDA, as defined by the company, may not be comparable to similarly entitled items reported by other real estate investment trusts or other companies. Please see Exhibits 13, 14 and 16 for reconciliations of FAD, FFO and EBITDA to net income.
