(b)Includes properties held for sale at net book value at December 31, 2014, 2012 and 2011.
(c)Management considers Funds from Operations (“FFO”) to be an appropriate measure of the financial performance of an equity REIT. The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) currently defines FFO as net income (computed in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America

(“GAAP”)), excluding gains (or losses) associated with the sale of previously depreciated operating properties, real estate depreciation and amortization, impairments of depreciable assets, and adjustments for unconsolidated joint ventures. Our calculation of diluted FFO also assumes conversion of all potentially dilutive securities, including certain non-controlling interests, which are convertible into common shares. We consider FFO to be an appropriate supplemental measure of operating performance because, by excluding gains or losses on dispositions of operating properties and excluding depreciation, FFO can assist in the comparison of the operating performance of a company’s real estate between periods or as compared to different companies. See "Funds from Operations" in Item 7 "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" for a reconciliation of net income attributable to common shareholders to FFO.

(d)Includes properties held for sale at December 31, 2014, 2012 and 2011.
(e)Excludes apartment homes owned in joint ventures.
