NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
March 31, 2011

1. Organization and description of business

PS Business Parks, Inc. (“PSB”) was incorporated in the state of California in 1990. As of March 31, 2011, PSB owned 77.2% of the common partnership units of PS Business Parks, L.P. (the “Operating Partnership”). The remaining common partnership units are owned by Public Storage (“PS”). PSB, as the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership, has full, exclusive and complete responsibility and discretion in managing and controlling the Operating Partnership. PSB and the Operating Partnership are collectively referred to as the “Company.”

The Company is a fully-integrated, self-advised and self-managed real estate investment trust (“REIT”) that acquires, develops, owns and operates commercial properties, primarily multi-tenant flex, office and industrial space. As of March 31, 2011, the Company owned and operated 21.8 million rentable square feet of commercial space located in eight states. The Company also manages 1.4 million rentable square feet on behalf of PS and its affiliated entities.

References to the number of properties or square footage are unaudited and outside the scope of the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm’s review of the Company’s financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).

2. Summary of significant accounting policies

Basis of presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 2011. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of PSB and the Operating Partnership. All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidated financial statements.

Noncontrolling Interests

The Company’s noncontrolling interests are reported as a component of equity separate from the parent’s equity. Purchases or sales of equity interests that do not result in a change in control are accounted for as equity transactions. In addition, net income attributable to the noncontrolling interest is included in consolidated net income on the face of the income statement and, upon a gain or loss of control, the interest purchased or sold, as well as any interest retained, is recorded at fair value with any gain or loss recognized in earnings.

Use of estimates

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Allowance for doubtful accounts

The Company monitors the collectability of its receivable balances including the deferred rent receivable on an ongoing basis. Based on these reviews, the Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the possible inability of tenants to make contractual rent payments to the Company. A provision for doubtful accounts is recorded during each period. The allowance for doubtful accounts, which represents the cumulative allowances less write-offs of uncollectible rent, is netted against tenant and other receivables on the consolidated balance sheets. Tenant receivables are net of an allowance for uncollectible accounts totaling $400,000 at March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010.

Financial instruments

The methods and assumptions used to estimate the fair value of financial instruments are described below. The Company has estimated the fair value of financial instruments using available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies. Considerable judgment is required in interpreting market data to develop estimates of market value. Accordingly, estimated fair values are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that could be realized in current market exchanges.

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a remaining maturity of three months or less at the date of purchase to be cash equivalents. Due to the short period to maturity of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, other assets and accrued and other liabilities, the carrying values as presented on the consolidated balance sheets are reasonable estimates of fair value. Based on borrowing rates currently available to the Company, the carrying amount of debt approximates fair value.

Financial assets that are exposed to credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents and receivables. Cash and cash equivalents, which consist primarily of money market investments, are only invested in entities with an investment grade rating. Receivables are comprised of balances due from a large number of customers. Balances that the Company expects to become uncollectible are reserved for or written off.

Real estate facilities

Real estate facilities are recorded at cost. Costs related to the renovation or improvement of the properties are capitalized. Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred. Expenditures that are expected to benefit a period greater than two years and exceed $2,000 are capitalized and depreciated over the estimated useful life. Buildings and equipment are depreciated on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives, which are generally 30 and five years, respectively. Transaction costs, which include tenant improvements and lease commissions, in excess of $1,000 for leases with terms greater than one year are capitalized and depreciated over their estimated useful lives. Transaction costs for leases of one year or less or less than $1,000 are expensed as incurred.

Intangible assets/liabilities

Intangible assets and liabilities include above-market and below-market in-place lease values of acquired properties based on the present value (using an interest rate which reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) of the difference between (i) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to the in-place leases and (ii) management’s estimate of fair market lease rates for the corresponding in-place leases, measured over a period equal to the remaining non-cancelable term of the lease. The capitalized above-market and below-market lease values (included in other assets and accrued liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets) are amortized to rental income over the remaining non-cancelable terms of the respective leases. The Company recorded net amortization of $209,000 and $37,000 of intangible assets and liabilities resulting from the above-market and below-market lease values during the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. As of March 31, 2011, the value of in-place leases resulted in a net intangible asset of $5.1 million, net of $2.4 million of accumulated amortization with a weighted average amortization period of 6.6 years, and a net intangible liability of $2.0 million, net of $1.7 million of accumulated amortization with a weighted average amortization period of 4.9 years. As of December 31, 2010, the value of in-place leases resulted in a net intangible asset of $5.4 million, net of $2.1 million of accumulated amortization, and a net intangible liability of $2.2 million, net of $1.5 million of accumulated amortization.

Evaluation of asset impairment

The Company evaluates its assets used in operations by identifying indicators of impairment and by comparing the sum of the estimated undiscounted future cash flows for each asset to the asset’s carrying value. When indicators of impairment are present and the sum of the undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying value of such asset, an impairment loss is recorded equal to the difference between the asset’s current carrying value and its value based on discounting its estimated future cash flows. In addition, the Company evaluates its assets held for disposition for impairment. Assets held for disposition are reported at the lower of their carrying value or fair value, less cost of disposition. At March 31, 2011, the Company did not consider any assets to be impaired.

Stock compensation

All share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, are recognized as stock compensation in the Company’s income statement based on their fair values. See Note 11.

Revenue and expense recognition

The Company must meet four basic criteria before revenue can be recognized: persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; the delivery has occurred or services rendered; the fee is fixed or determinable; and collectability is reasonably assured. All leases are classified as operating leases. Rental income is recognized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the leases. Straight-line rent is recognized for all tenants with contractual fixed increases in rent that are not included on the Company’s credit watch list. Deferred rent receivable represents rental revenue recognized on a straight-line basis in excess of billed rents. Reimbursements from tenants for real estate taxes and other recoverable operating expenses are recognized as rental income in the period the applicable costs are incurred. Property management fees are recognized in the period earned.

Costs incurred in connection with leasing (primarily tenant improvements and lease commissions) are capitalized and amortized over the lease period.

Gains from sales of real estate facilities

The Company recognizes gains from sales of real estate facilities at the time of sale using the full accrual method, provided that various criteria related to the terms of the transactions and any subsequent involvement by the Company with the properties sold are met. If the criteria are not met, the Company defers the gains and recognizes them when the criteria are met or using the installment or cost recovery methods as appropriate under the circumstances.

General and administrative expenses

General and administrative expenses include executive and other compensation, office expense, professional fees, acquisition transaction costs, state income taxes and other such administrative items.

Income taxes

The Company has qualified and intends to continue to qualify as a REIT, as defined in Section 856 of the Internal Revenue Code. As a REIT, the Company is not subject to federal income tax to the extent that it distributes its REIT taxable income to its shareholders. A REIT must distribute at least 90% of its taxable income each year. In addition, REITs are subject to a number of organizational and operating requirements. If the Company fails to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, the Company will be subject to federal income tax (including any applicable alternative minimum tax) based on its taxable income using corporate income tax

rates. Even if the Company qualifies for taxation as a REIT, the Company may be subject to certain state and local taxes on its income and property and to federal income and excise taxes on its undistributed taxable income. The Company believes it met all organization and operating requirements to maintain its REIT status during 2010 and intends to continue to meet such requirements for 2011. Accordingly, no provision for income taxes has been made in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

The Company can recognize a tax benefit only if it is “more likely than not” that a particular tax position will be sustained upon examination or audit. To the extent that the “more likely than not” standard has been satisfied, the benefit associated with a position is measured as the largest amount that is greater than 50% likely of being recognized upon settlement. As of March 31, 2011, the Company did not recognize any tax benefit for uncertain tax positions.

Accounting for preferred equity issuance costs

The Company records issuance costs as a reduction to paid-in capital on its balance sheet at the time the preferred securities are issued and reflects the carrying value of the preferred equity at the stated value. The Company records issuance costs as non-cash preferred equity distributions at the time it notifies the holders of preferred stock or units of its intent to redeem such shares or units.

Net income allocation

Net income was allocated as follows (in thousands):

		For the Three Months
		Ended March 31,
		2011				2010

Total net income allocable to PS Business Parks, Inc.			27,062				22,946
		$	24,673			$	27,841

Net income per common share

Per share amounts are computed using the number of weighted average common shares outstanding. “Diluted” weighted average common shares outstanding includes the dilutive effect of stock options and restricted stock units under the treasury stock method. “Basic” weighted average common shares outstanding excludes such effect. The Company’s restricted stock units are participating securities and included in the computation of basic and diluted weighted average common shares outstanding. The Company’s allocation of net income to the restricted stock unit holders are paid non-forfeitable dividends in excess of the expense recorded which results in a reduction in net income allocable to common shareholders and unit holders. Earnings per share has been calculated as follows (in thousands, except per share amounts):

		For the Three Months
		Ended March 31,
		2011				2010
Net income allocable to common shareholders		$	16,562			$	11,740
Weighted average common shares outstanding:
Basic weighted average common shares outstanding			24,685				24,413
Net effect of dilutive stock compensation — based on treasury stock method using average market price			107				151
Diluted weighted average common shares outstanding			24,792				24,564
Net income per common share — Basic		$	0.67			$	0.48
Net income per common share — Diluted		$	0.67			$	0.48

Options to purchase 66,000 and 331,000 shares for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, were not included in the computation of diluted net income per share because such options were considered anti-dilutive.

Segment reporting

The Company views its operations as one segment.

Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications have been made to the consolidated financial statements for 2010 in order to conform to the 2011 presentation.

The purchase price of acquired properties is allocated to land, buildings and equipment and intangible assets and liabilities associated with in-place leases (including tenant improvements, unamortized lease commissions, value of above-market and below-market leases, acquired in-place lease values, and tenant relationships, if any) based on their respective estimated fair values. In addition, beginning January 1, 2009, acquisition-related costs are expensed as incurred.

In determining the fair value of the tangible assets of the acquired properties, management considers the value of the properties as if vacant as of the acquisition date. Management must make significant assumptions in determining the value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Using different assumptions in the allocation of the purchase cost of the acquired properties would affect the timing of recognition of the related revenue and expenses. Amounts allocated to land are derived from comparable sales of land within the same region. Amounts allocated to buildings and improvements, tenant improvements and unamortized lease commissions are based on current market replacement costs and other market information. The amount allocated to acquired in-place leases is determined based on management’s assessment of current market conditions and the estimated lease-up periods for the respective spaces.

In January, 2010, the Company completed the sale of a 131,000 square foot office building located in Houston, Texas, for a gross sales price of $10.0 million, resulting in a net gain of $5.2 million.

Included in the consolidated statements of income are rental income and cost of operations of $91,000 and $57,000, respectively, reported as discontinued operations for the property sold during the three months ended March 31, 2010. In addition to minimum rental payments, tenants of this property reimburse the Company for their pro rata share of specified operating expenses, which amounted to $16,000 and reported as rental income for the three months ended March 31, 2010.

4. Leasing activity

The Company leases space in its real estate facilities to tenants primarily under non-cancelable leases generally ranging from one to 10 years. Future minimum rental revenues excluding recovery of operating expenses as of March 31, 2011 under these leases are as follows (in thousands):

2011		$	163,702
2012			176,985
2013			122,808
2014			78,888
2015			51,152
Thereafter			81,150
Total		$	674,685

In addition to minimum rental payments, certain tenants reimburse the Company for their pro rata share of specified operating expenses. Such reimbursements amounted to $15.6 million and $14.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. These amounts are included as rental income in the accompanying consolidated statements of income.

Leases accounting for 6.1% of total leased square footage are subject to termination options which include leases accounting for 2.9% of total leased square footage having termination options exercisable through December 31, 2011. In general, these leases provide for termination payments should the termination options be exercised. The above table is prepared assuming such options are not exercised.

5. Bank loans

The Company has a line of credit (the “Credit Facility”) with Wells Fargo Bank which expires on August 1, 2012. The Credit Facility has a borrowing limit of $100.0 million. Interest on outstanding borrowings is payable monthly. The rate of interest charged on borrowings is equal to a rate ranging from the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) plus 1.60% to LIBOR plus 2.60% depending on the Company’s credit ratings and coverage ratios, as defined. Currently, the Company’s rate under the Credit Facility is LIBOR plus 1.80%. In addition, the Company is required to pay an annual commitment fee ranging from 0.15% to 0.40% of the borrowing limit (currently 0.20%). In February, 2011, the Company used the funds borrowed from PS, as discussed in Note 8, to pay down the Credit Facility in full and as such, the available balance was $100.0 million as of March 31, 2011. The Company had $93.0 million outstanding on the Credit Facility at an interest rate of 2.11% at December 31, 2010. The Credit Facility requires the Company to meet certain covenants, with which the Company was in compliance at March 31, 2011.

6. Mortgage notes payable

Mortgage notes payable consist of the following (in thousands):

		March 31,				December 31,
		2011				2010
5.73% mortgage note, secured by one commercial property with a net book value of $28.3 million, principal and interest payable monthly, due March, 2013		$	13,655			$	13,729

2011		$	985
2012			1,174
2013			31,573
2014			371
2015			399
Thereafter			14,010
Total		$	48,512

7. Noncontrolling interests

As described in Note 2, the Company reports noncontrolling interests within equity in the consolidated financial statements, but separate from the Company’s shareholders’ equity. In addition, net income allocable to noncontrolling interests is shown as a reduction from net income in calculating net income allocable to common shareholders.

Common partnership units

The Company presents the accounts of PSB and the Operating Partnership on a consolidated basis. Ownership interests in the Operating Partnership that can be redeemed for common stock, other than PSB’s interest, are classified as noncontrolling interests — common units in the consolidated financial statements. Net income allocable to noncontrolling interests — common units consists of the common units’ share of the consolidated operating results after allocation to preferred units and shares. Beginning one year from the date of admission as a limited partner (common units) and subject to certain limitations described below, each limited partner other than PSB has the right to require the redemption of its partnership interest.

A limited partner (common units) that exercises its redemption right will receive cash from the Operating Partnership in an amount equal to the market value (as defined in the Operating Partnership Agreement) of the partnership interests redeemed. In lieu of the Operating Partnership redeeming the partner for cash, PSB, as general partner, has the right to elect to acquire the partnership interest directly from a limited partner exercising its redemption right, in exchange for cash in the amount specified above or by issuance of one share of PSB common stock for each unit of limited partnership interest redeemed.

A limited partner (common units) cannot exercise its redemption right if delivery of shares of PSB common stock would be prohibited under the applicable articles of incorporation, or if the general partner believes that there is a risk that delivery of shares of common stock would cause the general partner to no longer qualify as a REIT, would cause a violation of the applicable securities laws, or would result in the Operating Partnership no longer being treated as a partnership for federal income tax purposes.

At March 31, 2011, there were 7,305,355 common units owned by PS, which are accounted for as noncontrolling interests. On a fully converted basis, assuming all 7,305,355 noncontrolling interests — common units were converted into shares of common stock of PSB at March 31, 2011, the noncontrolling interests — common units would convert into 22.8% of the common shares outstanding. Combined with PS’s common stock ownership, on a fully converted basis, PS has a combined ownership of 40.9% of the Company’s common equity. At the end of each reporting period, the Company determines the amount of equity (book value of net assets) which is allocable to the noncontrolling interest based upon the ownership interest, and an adjustment is made to the noncontrolling interest, with a corresponding adjustment to paid-in capital, to reflect the noncontrolling interests’ equity interest in the Company.

Preferred partnership units

Through the Operating Partnership, the Company had the following preferred units outstanding as of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010:

										March 31, 2011								December 31, 2010
				Earliest Potential		Dividend				Units				Amount				Units				Amount
Series		Issuance Date		Redemption Date		Rate				Outstanding				(in thousands)				Outstanding				(in thousands)
Series N		December, 2005		December, 2010			7.125	%			223,300			$	5,583				223,300			$	5,583
Series J		May & June, 2004		N/A			7.500	%			—				—				1,710,000				42,750
Series Q		March, 2007		N/A			6.550	%			—				—				203,400				5,085
Total											223,300			$	5,583				2,136,700			$	53,418

In February, 2011, the Company paid an aggregate of $39.1 million to repurchase 1,710,000 units of its 7.50% Series J Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Units and 203,400 units of its 6.55% Series Q Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Units for a weighted average purchase price of $20.43 per unit. The aggregate par value of the repurchased preferred units was $47.8 million, which generated a gain of $7.4 million, net of original issuance costs of $1.4 million, which was added to net income allocable to common shareholders.

The Operating Partnership has the right to redeem preferred units on or after the fifth anniversary of the applicable issuance date at the original capital contribution plus the cumulative priority return, as defined, to the redemption date to the extent not previously distributed. The preferred units are exchangeable for Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock of the respective series of PSB on or after the tenth anniversary of the date of issuance at the option of the Operating Partnership or a majority of the holders of the respective preferred units. The Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock will have the same distribution rate and par value as the corresponding preferred units and will otherwise have equivalent terms to the other series of preferred stock described in Note 9. As of March 31, 2011, the Company had $149,000 of deferred costs in connection with the issuance of preferred units, which the Company will report as additional distributions upon notice of redemption.

8. Related party transactions

On February 9, 2011, the Company entered into an agreement with PS to borrow $121.0 million with a maturity date of August 9, 2011 at an interest rate of LIBOR plus 0.85%. Funds from this loan were used for the repurchase of the Company’s 7.50% Series J Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Units for $35.4 million and to repay, in full, the outstanding balance on the Company’s Credit Facility. The Company had $121.0 million outstanding on the note payable to PS at a weighted average interest rate of 1.2% at March 31, 2011. Subsequent to March 31, 2011, the Company repaid $5.0 million on the note payable to PS.

Pursuant to a cost sharing and administrative services agreement, the Company shares costs with PS and its affiliated entities for certain administrative services, which are allocated among PS and its affiliates in accordance with a methodology intended to fairly allocate those costs. These costs totaled $110,000 and $206,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

The Operating Partnership manages industrial, office and retail facilities for PS and its affiliated entities. These facilities, all located in the United States, operate under the “Public Storage” or “PS Business Parks” names. The PS Business Parks name and logo is owned by PS and licensed to the Company under a non-exclusive, royalty-free license agreement. The license can be terminated by either party for any reason with six months written notice.

Under the property management contracts, the Operating Partnership is compensated based on a percentage of the gross revenues of the facilities managed. Under the supervision of the property owners, the Operating Partnership coordinates rental policies, rent collections, marketing activities, the purchase of equipment and supplies, maintenance activities, and the selection and engagement of vendors, suppliers and independent contractors. In addition, the Operating Partnership assists and advises the property owners in establishing policies for the hire, discharge and supervision of employees for the operation of these facilities, including property managers and leasing, billing and maintenance personnel.

The property management contract with PS is for a seven-year term with the agreement automatically extending for an additional one-year period upon each one-year anniversary of its commencement (unless cancelled by either party). Either party can give notice of its intent to cancel the agreement upon expiration of its current term. Management fee revenues under these contracts were $178,000 and $173,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

In December, 2006, PS began providing property management services for the mini storage component of two assets owned by the Company. These mini storage facilities, located in Palm Beach County, Florida, operate under the “Public Storage” name.

Under the property management contracts, PS is compensated based on a percentage of the gross revenues of the facilities managed. Under the supervision of the Company, PS coordinates rental policies, rent collections, marketing activities, the purchase of equipment and supplies, maintenance activities, and the selection and engagement of vendors, suppliers and independent contractors. In addition, PS assists and advises the Company in establishing policies for the hire, discharge and supervision of employees for the operation of these facilities, including on-site managers, assistant managers and associate managers.

Either the Company or PS can cancel the property management contract upon 60 days notice. Management fee expenses under the contract were $13,000 and $12,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

At March 31, 2011, the Company had amounts due to PS of $88,000 for these contracts, as well as for certain operating expenses, compared to amounts due from PS of $530,000 at December 31, 2010.

11. Stock compensation

PSB has a 1997 Stock Option and Incentive Plan (the “1997 Plan”) and a 2003 Stock Option and Incentive Plan (the “2003 Plan”), each covering 1.5 million shares of PSB’s common stock. Under the 1997 Plan and 2003 Plan, PSB has granted non-qualified options to certain directors, officers and key employees to purchase shares of PSB’s common stock at a price not less than the fair market value of the common stock at the date of grant. Additionally, under the 1997 Plan and 2003 Plan, PSB has granted restricted stock units to officers and key employees.

The weighted average grant date fair value of options granted during the three months ended March 31, 2010 was $5.99 per share. The Company has calculated the fair value of each option grant on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions used for grants during the three months ended March 31, 2010: a dividend yield of 3.4%; expected volatility of 17.5%; expected life of five years; and risk-free interest rates of 2.4%. No options were granted during the three months ended March 31, 2011.

The weighted average grant date fair value of restricted stock units granted during the three months ended March 31, 2010 was $52.35. The Company calculated the fair value of each restricted stock unit grant using the market value on the date of grant. No restricted stock units were granted during the three months ended March 31, 2011.

At March 31, 2011, there were a combined total of 886,000 options and restricted stock units authorized to grant. Information with respect to outstanding options and nonvested restricted stock units granted under the 1997 Plan and 2003 Plan is as follows:

Overview

As of March 31, 2011, the Company owned and operated 21.8 million rentable square feet of multi-tenant flex, industrial and office properties located in eight states.

The Company focuses on increasing profitability and cash flow aimed at maximizing shareholder value. The Company strives to maintain high occupancy levels while increasing rental rates when market conditions allow, although the Company may decrease rental rates in markets where conditions require. The Company also acquires properties it believes will create long-term value, and from time to time disposes of properties which no longer fit within the Company’s strategic objectives or in situations where the Company believes it can optimize cash proceeds. Operating results are driven by income from rental operations and are therefore substantially influenced by rental demand for space within our properties and rental rates.

During the first three months of 2011, the Company leased or re-leased 1.5 million square feet of space while experiencing a decrease in rental rates of 7.2%. Total net operating income for the three months ended March 31, 2011 increased $3.9 million, or 8.8%, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2010 (see reconciliation of net operating income to income from continuing operations on page 27). See further discussion of operating results below.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates:

Our accounting policies are described in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements included in this Form 10-Q. We believe our most critical accounting policies relate to revenue recognition, property acquisitions, allowance for doubtful accounts, impairment of long-lived assets, depreciation, accruals of operating expenses and accruals for contingencies, each of which we discuss below.

Revenue Recognition: The Company must meet four basic criteria before revenue can be recognized: persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; the delivery has occurred or services rendered; the fee is fixed or determinable; and collectability is reasonably assured. All leases are classified as operating leases. Rental income is recognized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the leases. Straight-line rent is recognized for all tenants with contractual fixed increases in rent that are not included on the Company’s credit watch list. Deferred rent receivable represents rental revenue recognized on a straight-line basis in excess of billed rents. Reimbursements from tenants for real estate taxes and other recoverable operating expenses are recognized as rental income in the period the applicable costs are incurred. Property management fees are recognized in the period earned.

Property Acquisitions: The Company allocates the purchase price of acquired properties to land, buildings and equipment and intangible assets and liabilities associated with in-place leases (including tenant improvements, unamortized lease commissions, value of above-market and below-market leases, acquired in-place lease values, and tenant relationships, if any) based on their respective estimated fair values. In addition, beginning January 1, 2009, acquisition-related costs are expensed as incurred.

In determining the fair value of the tangible assets of the acquired properties, management considers the value of the properties as if vacant as of the acquisition date. Management must make significant assumptions in determining the value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Using different assumptions in the allocation of the purchase cost of the acquired properties would affect the timing of recognition of the related revenue and expenses. Amounts allocated to land are derived from comparable sales of land within the same region. Amounts allocated to buildings and improvements, tenant improvements and unamortized lease commissions are based on current market replacement costs and other market rate information.

The value allocable to the above-market or below-market in-place lease values of acquired properties is determined based upon the present value (using a discount rate which reflects the risks associated with the acquired leases) of the difference between (i) the contractual rents to be paid pursuant to the in-place leases, and (ii) management’s estimate of fair market lease rates for the corresponding in-place leases, measured over a period equal to the remaining non-cancelable term of the lease. The amounts allocated to above-market or below-market leases are included in other assets or other liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and are amortized on a straight-line basis as an increase or reduction of rental income over the remaining non-cancelable term of the respective leases.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts: Rental revenue from our tenants is our principal source of revenue. We monitor the collectability of our receivable balances including the deferred rent receivable on an ongoing basis. Based on these reviews, we maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the possible inability of our tenants to make required rent payments to us. Tenant receivables and deferred rent receivables are carried net of the allowances for uncollectible tenant receivables and deferred rent. As discussed below, determination of the adequacy of these allowances requires significant judgments and estimates. Our estimate of the required allowance is subject to revision as the factors discussed below change and is sensitive to the effect of economic and market conditions on our tenants.

Tenant receivables consist primarily of amounts due for contractual lease payments, reimbursements of common area maintenance expenses, property taxes and other expenses recoverable from tenants. Determination of the adequacy of the allowance for uncollectible current tenant receivables is performed using a methodology that incorporates specific identification, aging analysis, an overall evaluation of the historical loss trends and the current economic and business environment. The specific identification methodology relies on factors such as the age and nature of the receivables, the payment history and financial condition of the tenant, the assessment of the tenant’s ability to meet its lease obligations, and the status of negotiations of any disputes with the tenant. The allowance also includes a reserve based on historical loss trends not associated with any specific tenant. This reserve as well as the specific identification reserve is reevaluated quarterly based on economic conditions and the current business environment.

Deferred rent receivable represents the amount that the cumulative straight-line rental income recorded to date exceeds cash rents billed to date under the lease agreement. Given the long-term nature of these types of receivables, determination of the adequacy of the allowance for unbilled deferred rent receivable is based primarily on historical loss experience. Management evaluates the allowance for unbilled deferred rent receivable using a specific identification methodology for significant tenants designed to assess their financial condition and ability to meet their lease obligations.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets: The Company evaluates a property for potential impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that its carrying amount may not be recoverable. On a quarterly basis, we evaluate our entire portfolio for impairment based on current operating information. In the event that these periodic assessments reflect that the carrying amount of a property exceeds the sum of the undiscounted cash flows (excluding interest) that are expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the property, the Company would recognize an impairment loss to the extent the carrying amount exceeded the estimated fair value of the property. The estimation of expected future net cash flows is inherently uncertain and relies on subjective assumptions dependent upon future and current market conditions and events that affect the ultimate value of the property. Management must make assumptions related to the property such as future rental rates, tenant allowances, operating expenditures, property taxes, capital improvements, occupancy levels and the estimated proceeds generated from the future sale of the property. These assumptions could differ materially from actual results in future periods. Our intent to hold properties over the long-term directly decreases the likelihood of recording an impairment loss. If our strategy changes or if market conditions otherwise dictate an earlier sale date, an impairment loss could be recognized, and such loss could be material.

Depreciation: We compute depreciation on our buildings and equipment using the straight-line method based on estimated useful lives of generally 30 and five years, respectively. A significant portion of the acquisition cost of each property is allocated to building and building components. The allocation of the acquisition cost to building and building components, as well as the determination of their useful lives, are based on estimates. If we do not appropriately allocate to these components or we incorrectly estimate the useful lives of these components, our computation of depreciation expense may not appropriately reflect the actual impact of these costs over future periods, which will affect net income. In addition, the net book value of real estate assets could be overstated or understated. The statement of cash flows, however, would not be affected.

Accruals of Operating Expenses: The Company accrues for property tax expenses, performance bonuses and other operating expenses each quarter based on historical trends and anticipated disbursements. If these estimates are incorrect, the timing and amount of expense recognized will be affected.

Accruals for Contingencies: The Company is exposed to business and legal liability risks with respect to events that may have occurred, but in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) has not accrued for such potential liabilities because the loss is either not probable or not estimable. Future events could result in such potential losses becoming probable and estimable, which could have a material adverse impact on our financial condition or results of operations.

Effect of Economic Conditions on the Company’s Operations:

During the first three months of 2011, the impact of the recent recession and weak economic conditions continued to affect commercial real estate negatively as the Company experienced a decrease in new rental rates over expiring rental rates on executed leases. Although it is uncertain what impact economic conditions will have on the Company’s future ability to maintain existing occupancy levels and rental rates, management expects that the decrease in rental rates on lease transactions will result in a decrease in rental income for 2011 when compared to 2010. The current economic conditions may have a significant impact on the Company, potentially resulting in further reductions in occupancy and rental rates.

While the Company historically has experienced a low level of write-offs of uncollectable rents, there is inherent uncertainty in a tenant’s ability to continue paying rent and meet their full lease obligation. The table below summarizes the impact to the Company from tenants’ inability to pay rent or continue to meet their lease obligation (in thousands):

		For The Three Months
		Ended March 31,
		2011				2010
Write—offs of uncollectible rent		$	248			$	419
Write—offs as a percentage of rental income			0.3	%			0.6	%
Square footage of leases terminated prior to scheduled expiration due to business failures			81				125
Accelerated depreciation expense related to unamortized tenant improvements and lease commissions associated with early terminations		$	248			$	495

As of April 29, 2011, the Company had 33,000 square feet of leased space occupied by tenants that are protected by Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. From time to time, tenants contact us, requesting early termination of their lease, a reduction in space under lease, or rent deferment or abatement. At this time, the Company cannot anticipate what impact, if any, the ultimate outcome of these discussions will have on our future operating results.

Company Performance and Effect of Economic Conditions on Primary Markets:

The Company’s operations are substantially concentrated in 10 regions. The Company’s assessment of these regions as of March 31, 2011 is summarized below. During the three months ended March 31, 2011, initial rental rates on new and renewed leases within the Company’s overall portfolio decreased 7.2% over expiring rents, an improvement from a decline of 13.0% for the year ended December 31, 2010. The Company’s Same Park (defined below) vacancy rate at March 31, 2011 was 8.9%, up from 8.5% at March 31, 2010. The Company’s overall vacancy rate at March 31, 2011 was 10.7%, up from 8.8% at March 31, 2010. Each of the 10 regions in which the Company owns assets is subject to its own unique market influences. Below is a summary of the general market conditions as well as the Company’s operating statistics for each of the 10 regions in which the Company operates. The Company has compiled market information set forth below using third party reports for each respective market. The Company considers these sources to be reliable, but there can be no assurance that the information in these reports is accurate.

The Company owns 4.0 million square feet in Southern California located in Los Angeles, Orange and San Diego Counties. For the first three months of 2011, fundamentals for Southern California continued to reflect signs of modest stability despite slight decreases in rental rates. Two of the three markets experienced a decline in vacancy rate and had positive net absorption year over year. Market vacancy rates in Southern California range from 3.9% to 16.7%. The Company’s vacancy rate in its Southern California portfolio was 10.7% at March 31, 2011. For the three months ended March 31, 2011, the overall region experienced a weighted positive net absorption of 0.6%. Despite the positive net absorption in the overall region, the Company’s weighted average occupancy in this region decreased from 92.4% for the first three months of 2010 to 89.6% for the first three months of 2011. The decrease in the Company’s weighted average occupancy was primarily due to several large tenants vacating 91,000 square feet in 2010 and 2011. Annualized realized rent per square foot decreased 1.8% from $15.74 per square foot for the first three months of 2010 to $15.46 per square foot for the first three months of 2011.

The Company owns 1.8 million square feet in Northern California with concentrations in Sacramento, the East Bay (Hayward and San Ramon) and Silicon Valley (San Jose and Santa Clara). Market vacancy rates in these submarkets are 23.5%, 21.3% and 18.2%, respectively. The Company’s vacancy rate in its Northern California portfolio was 10.1% at March 31, 2011. During the first three months of 2011, demand in these submarkets remained low, which negatively impacted both rental and occupancy rates. Leasing activity was primarily related to companies contracting and reorganizing business operations. For the three months ended March 31, 2011, the combined submarkets experienced negative net absorption of 0.2%. Despite the negative net absorption in these submarkets, the Company’s weighted average occupancy in this region increased from 88.9% for the first three months of 2010 to 90.5% for the first three months of 2011. The increase in the weighted average occupancy was due to 32,000 square feet of vacant space leased during the fourth quarter of 2010. However, annualized realized rent per square foot decreased 2.3% from $12.35 per square foot for the first three months of 2010 to $12.07 per square foot for the first three months of 2011.

The Company owns 1.7 million square feet in Southern Texas, specifically in the Austin and Houston markets. During the second quarter of 2010, the Company acquired a portfolio of assets in Austin aggregating 704,000 square feet of multi-tenant flex parks. Market vacancy rates are 20.8% in the Austin market and 16.0% in the Houston market. The Company’s vacancy rate for these combined markets at March 31, 2011 was 10.8%. For the first three months of 2011, fundamentals continue to reflect signs of stability for the combined markets as they experienced a weighted positive net absorption of 0.1% and flat rental rate growth. Weighted average occupancy for the Company’s Same Park portfolio for this market increased from 85.3% for the first three months of 2010 to 88.3% for the first three months of 2011. The increase in the weighted average occupancy was primarily due to 28,000 square feet of vacant space leased during the second quarter of 2010. The Company’s overall weighted average occupancy for this market increased from 85.3% for the first three months of 2010 to 87.7% for the first three months of 2011. Annualized realized rent per square foot increased 6.9% from $10.90 per square foot for the first three months of 2010 to $11.65 per square foot for the first three months of 2011. Excluding the acquisition, annualized realized rent per square foot for this market increased 0.5% from $10.90 per square foot for the first three months of 2010 to $10.95 per square foot for the first three months of 2011.

The Company owns 1.7 million square feet in Northern Texas, throughout the Dallas Metroplex market. The market vacancy rate in Las Colinas, where significant concentration of the Company’s Northern Texas portfolio is located, is 12.8%. The Company’s vacancy rate at March 31, 2011 in this market was 9.1%. For the three months ended March 31, 2011, the market experienced negative net absorption of 0.3%. The Company’s weighted average occupancy for the region decreased from 91.3% for the first three months of 2010 to 90.7% for the first three months of 2011. Annualized realized rent per square foot decreased 3.0% from $10.95 per square foot for the first three months of 2010 to $10.62 per square foot for the first three months of 2011.

The Company owns 3.7 million square feet in South Florida, which consists of the Miami International Commerce Center (“MICC”) business park located in the Airport West submarket of Miami-Dade County and two multi-tenant flex parks located in Palm Beach County. MICC is located less than one mile from the cargo entrance of the Miami International Airport, which is one of the most active cargo airports in the United States. For the first three months of 2011, the Miami and Palm Beach markets experienced a decline in vacancy rates and had positive net absorption year over year. Market fundamentals may be stabilizing in Miami as market vacancy is at its lowest since 2009 and positive net absorption was recorded for four consecutive quarters. Market vacancy rates for Miami-Dade County and Palm Beach County are 7.8% and 11.7%, respectively, compared to the Company’s vacancy rate for Miami-Dade County and Palm Beach County of 1.2% and 10.3%, respectively, at March 31, 2011. For the three months ended March 31, 2011, the combined markets experienced a weighted positive net absorption of 1.1%. The Company’s weighted average occupancy in this region increased from 95.2% for the first three months of 2010 to 96.9% for the first three months of 2011. Annualized realized rent per square foot decreased 6.1% from $9.23 per square foot for the first three months of 2010 to $8.67 per square foot for the first three months of 2011. During the third quarter of 2010, the Company completed construction on a parcel of land within MICC, which added 75,000 square feet of rentable small tenant industrial space. As of March 31, 2011, the newly constructed building was 100.0% occupied.

The Company owns 4.0 million square feet in the Northern Virginia submarket of Washington D.C. During the second half of 2010, the Company acquired Tysons Corporate Center, a 270,000 square foot two-building multi-tenant office park, and Westpark Business Campus, a 735,000 square foot seven-building multi-tenant office park, each located in Tysons Corner, Virginia. The Company’s overall vacancy rate at March 31, 2011 was 17.2% compared to the average market vacancy rate of 13.7%. For the three months ended March 31, 2011, the market experienced negative net absorption of 0.3%. Weighted average occupancy for the Company’s Same Park portfolio for this market decreased from 94.4% for the first three months of 2010 to 90.7% for the first three months of 2011. The decrease in the Same Park weighted average occupancy was primarily due to four large tenants with scheduled expirations in 2010 and 2011. The Company’s overall weighted average occupancy for this market decreased from 94.4% for the first three months of 2010 to 82.8% for the first three months of 2011 as a result of the acquisitions which had a combined weighted average occupancy of 58.9% for the three months ended March 31, 2011. Annualized realized rent per square foot increased 4.2% from $21.13 per square foot for the first three months of 2010 to $22.01 per square foot for the first three months of 2011. Excluding the acquisitions, annualized realized rent per square foot for this market decreased 4.0% from $21.13 per square foot for the first three months of 2010 to $20.28 per square foot for the first three months of 2011.

The Company owns 2.4 million square feet in the Maryland submarket of Washington D.C. During the first half of 2010, the Company acquired Shady Grove Executive Center, a 350,000 square foot multi-tenant office park, and Parklawn Business Park, a 232,000 square foot multi-tenant office and flex park, each located in Rockville, Maryland. The Company’s overall vacancy rate in the region at March 31, 2011 was 13.5% compared to 14.3% for the market as a whole. For the three months ended March 31, 2011, the net absorption remained flat for the market. Weighted average occupancy for the Company’s Same Park portfolio for this market decreased from 93.6% for the first three months of 2010 to 88.9% for the first three months of 2011. The decrease in the Same Park weighted average occupancy was primarily due to several tenants aggregating 74,000 square feet vacating in 2010, of which 39,000 square feet were scheduled expirations. The Company’s overall weighted average occupancy decreased from 92.9% for the first three months of 2010 to 86.3% for the first three months of 2011 as a result of the acquisitions which had a combined weighted average occupancy of 78.4% for the three months ended March 31, 2011. Annualized realized rent per square foot increased 3.5% from $23.74 per square foot for the first three months of 2010 to $24.57 per square foot for the first three months of 2011. Excluding the acquisitions, annualized realized rent per square foot for this market increased 3.8% from $23.56 per square foot for the first three months of 2010 to $24.46 per square foot for the first three months of 2011.

The Company owns 1.3 million square feet in the Beaverton submarket of Portland, Oregon. Market vacancy for this submarket is 24.7% compared to the Company’s vacancy rate of 14.3% at March 31, 2011. Despite the improvement in leasing activity and occupancy for the first three months of 2011, rental rates continued to soften. For the three months ended March 31, 2011, the net absorption remained flat for the market. The Company’s weighted average occupancy increased from 82.0% for the first three months of 2010 to 85.7% for the first three months of 2011 primarily as a result of 40,000 square feet leased to tenants in 2010. However, annualized realized rent per square foot decreased 2.1% from $16.29 per square foot for the first three months of 2010 to $15.94 per square foot for the first three months of 2011.

The Company owns 679,000 square feet in the Phoenix and Tempe submarkets of Arizona. During 2011, national and local economies continued to impact the submarkets negatively. Market vacancies increased significantly in 2009 due in part to companies contracting and reorganizing business operations in the market, which had a negative impact on rental rates in 2010. For the first three months of 2011, market vacancy decreased for the fourth consecutive quarter, while market rental rates remained flat. The combined submarket vacancy rate is 13.5% compared to the Company’s vacancy rate of 11.7% at March 31, 2011. For the three months ended March 31, 2011, the market experienced positive net absorption of 0.7%. The Company’s weighted average occupancy in the region increased from 82.9% for the first three months of 2010 to 87.9% for the first three months of 2011. Annualized realized rent per square foot decreased 10.0% from $10.69 per square foot for the first three months of 2010 to $9.62 per square foot for the first three months of 2011 as rental rates decreased on new and renewed leases.

The Company owns 521,000 square feet in the state of Washington which mostly consists of Overlake Business Center, a 493,000 square foot multi-tenant office and flex park located in Redmond. Leasing activity showed signs of stabilization as evidenced by the positive net absorption and a drop in vacancy rates from the prior quarter. The market vacancy rate is 13.5% compared to the Company’s vacancy rate of 5.3% at March 31, 2011. For the three months ended March 31, 2011, the market experienced positive net absorption of 0.2%. The Company’s weighted average occupancy increased from 87.5% for the first three months of 2010 to 94.4% for the first three months of 2011. Annualized realized rent per square foot decreased 0.7% from $18.42 per square foot for the first three months of 2010 to $18.29 per square foot for the first three months of 2011 as rental rates decreased on new and renewed leases.

Growth of the Company’s Operations and Acquisitions and Dispositions of Properties:

The Company is focused on maximizing cash flow from its existing portfolio of properties by looking for opportunities to expand its presence in existing and new markets through strategic acquisitions. The Company may from time to time dispose of non-strategic assets that do not meet this criterion. The Company has historically maintained a low-leverage-level approach intended to provide the Company with the greatest level of flexibility for future growth.

In 2010, the Company acquired five business parks comprising 2.3 million square feet for an aggregate purchase price of $301.7 million. As of March 31, 2011, the blended occupancy of the assets acquired was 73.5%. As of March 31, 2011, the Company had approximately 607,000 square feet of vacancy spread over the five parks which provides the Company with considerable opportunity to generate additional rental income given that the Company’s other assets in these same submarkets have a blended occupancy of 88.7% at March 31, 2011. The table below reflects the assets acquired in 2010 (in thousands):

										Square				Occupancy at
Property		Date Acquired		Location		Purchase Price				Feet				March 31, 2011
Westpark Business Campus		December, 2010		Tysons Corner, Virginia		$	140,000				735				61.9	%
Tysons Corporate Center		July, 2010		Tysons Corner, Virginia		$	35,400				270				53.1	%
Parklawn Business Park		June, 2010		Rockville, Maryland		$	23,430				232				79.0	%
Austin Flex Portfolio		April, 2010		Austin, Texas		$	42,900				704				89.7	%
Shady Grove Executive Center		March, 2010		Rockville, Maryland		$	60,000				350				77.4	%

In addition to the 2010 property acquisitions, during 2010, the Company also completed construction on a parcel of land within MICC in Miami, Florida, which added 75,000 square feet of rentable small tenant industrial space. As of March 31, 2011, the newly constructed building was 100.0% occupied.

The Company made no acquisitions during the three months ended March 31, 2011.

During January, 2010, the Company completed the sale of a 131,000 square foot office building located in Houston, Texas, for a gross sales price of $10.0 million, resulting in a net gain of $5.2 million. The Company made no dispositions during the three months ended March 31, 2011.

Scheduled Lease Expirations:

In addition to the 2.3 million square feet, or 10.7%, of space available in our total portfolio as of March 31, 2011, leases representing 16.0% of the leased square footage of our total portfolio are scheduled to expire during the remainder of 2011. Our ability to re-lease available space depends upon the market conditions in the specific submarkets in which our properties are located. As a result, we cannot predict with certainty the rate at which expiring leases will be re-leased.

Impact of Inflation:

Although inflation has not been significant in recent years, it remains a potential factor in our economy, and the Company continues to seek ways to mitigate its potential impact. A substantial portion of the Company’s leases require tenants to pay operating expenses, including real estate taxes, utilities, and insurance, as well as increases in common area expenses, partially reducing the Company’s exposure to inflation.

Concentration of Portfolio by Region:

Rental income, cost of operations and rental income less cost of operations, excluding depreciation and amortization, or net operating income (defined as “NOI” for purposes of the following table), are summarized for the three months ended March 31, 2011 by major geographic region. The Company uses NOI and its components as a measurement of the performance of its commercial real estate. Management believes that these financial measures provide them, as well as the investor, the most consistent measurement on a comparative basis of the performance of the commercial real estate and its contribution to the value of the Company. Depreciation and amortization have been excluded from NOI as they are generally not used in determining the value of commercial real estate by management or the investment community. Depreciation and amortization are generally not used in determining value as they consider the historical costs of an asset compared to its current value; therefore, to understand the effect of the assets’ historical cost on the Company’s results, investors should look at GAAP financial measures, such as total operating costs including depreciation and amortization. The Company’s calculation of NOI may not be comparable to those of other companies and should not be used as an alternative to measures of performance calculated in accordance with GAAP. The table below reflects rental income, operating expenses and NOI from continuing operations for the three months ended March 31, 2011 based on geographical concentration. The total of all regions is equal to the amount of rental income and cost of operations recorded by the Company in accordance with GAAP. As part of the table below, we have reconciled total NOI to income from continuing operations, which we consider the most directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP. The percent of total by region reflects the actual contribution to rental income, cost of operations and NOI during the period (in thousands):

Comparative Analysis of the Three Months Ended March 31, 2011 to the Three Months Ended March 31, 2010

Results of Operations: In order to evaluate the performance of the Company’s overall portfolio over comparable periods, management analyzes the operating performance of a consistent group of properties owned and operated throughout both periods (herein referred to as “Same Park”). Operating properties that the Company acquired subsequent to January 1, 2010 are referred to as “Non-Same Park.” For the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, the Same Park facilities constitute 19.4 million rentable square feet, which includes all assets in continuing operations that the Company owned from January 1, 2010 through March 31, 2011, representing 89.1% of the total square footage of the Company’s portfolio as of March 31, 2011.

The following table presents the operating results of the Company’s properties for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 in addition to other income and expense items affecting income from continuing operations. The Company reports Same Park operations to provide information regarding trends for properties the Company has held for the periods being compared (in thousands, except per square foot data):

See “Concentration of Portfolio by Region” above for more information on NOI, including why the Company presents NOI and how the Company uses NOI. The Company’s calculation of NOI may not be comparable to those of other companies and should not be used as an alternative to measures of performance calculated in accordance with GAAP.

The following table summarizes the Same Park operating results by major geographic region for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010.
