__________

(a)

The grant date fair value of RSAs and RSUs reflect our stock price on the date of grant. The grant date fair value of PSUs were determined utilizing a Monte Carlo simulation model to generate a range of possible future stock prices for both us and the plan defined peer index over the three-year performance period. To estimate the fair value of PSUs granted during the six months ended June 30, 2014, we used a risk-free interest rate of 0.65% and an expected volatility rate of 25.89% (the plan defined peer index assumes 21.77%) and assumed a dividend yield of zero.

(b)

The total fair value of shares vested during the six months ended June 30, 2014 was $23.9 million. Employees have the option to take immediate delivery of the shares upon vesting or defer receipt to a future date, pursuant to previously-made deferral elections. At June 30, 2014, we had an obligation to issue 889,863 shares of our common stock underlying such deferred shares, which is recorded within W. P. Carey stockholders’ equity as a Deferred compensation obligation of $30.6 million.

(c)

Vesting and payment of the PSUs is conditioned upon certain company and market performance goals being met during the relevant three-year performance period. The ultimate number of PSUs to be vested will depend on the extent to which the performance goals are met and can range from zero to three times the original awards. In connection with the payment of the PSUs granted in 2011 that were paid out in February 2014, we adjusted the shares during the three months ended March 31, 2014 to reflect the actual number of shares issued. During the three months ended June 30, 2014, we also adjusted the number of PSUs expected to vest based on updated forecasted performance targets. There was no impact on our consolidated financial statements related to these adjustments, as the initial fair value of our PSUs factored in the variability associated with the performance features of these awards.


(d)	At June 30, 2014, total unrecognized compensation expense related to these awards was approximately $37.3 million, with an aggregate weighted-average remaining term of 1.78 years.
