Dividends for Second Quarter 2007. As previously announced, the Board of Directors declared a dividend for the quarter ended June 30, 2007 of $0.66 per share, as compared to $0.64 per share for the same period in 2006. The dividend will be payable August 20, 2007 to stockholders of record on August 3, 2007 and will be the company’s 145^th consecutive dividend payment.

Outlook for 2007. The company is affirming its investment guidance of $1.0 billion to $1.2 billion for 2007. Acquisition guidance has been increased to a range of $750 to $950 million from $700 to $800 million, while development funding is now projected to be approximately $250 million versus the prior range of $300 to $400 million. The decline in funded development projection is due to estimated timing of fundings as the company’s overall development pipeline remains strong. In addition, the company expects $100 to $200 million of dispositions, resulting in net investments of $800 million to $1.1 billion.

The company is adjusting its 2007 guidance for net income available to common stockholders to a range of $1.27 to $1.33 per diluted share from $1.18 to $1.26 per diluted share primarily due to the increase in acquisition guidance, expected interest savings from the $400 million convertible debt offering completed in July 2007, a reduction in projected depreciation and amortization to $146 million from $151 million and $1.0 million in gains on sales of real property in the second quarter. The company is increasing its 2007 normalized FFO guidance to a range of $3.09 to $3.15 per diluted share, from $3.06 to $3.14 per diluted share primarily due to the increase in acquisition guidance and the interest savings noted above. The company is increasing its 2007 FAD guidance to a range of $2.91 to $2.97 per diluted share, from $2.82 to $2.90 per diluted share primarily due to the increase in acquisition guidance, the interest savings noted above, cash receipts during the second quarter of $2.8 million and a reduction in expected capital expenditures, tenant improvements and lease commissions totaling $6 million from $7 million, offset in part by the $1.75 million in one-time acquisition finders' fees paid during the second quarter.

FFO and FAD for the quarter ended June 30, 2007 have been adjusted for $1.75 million of one-time acquisition finders’ fees paid to former Windrose management in connection with the closing of the Rendina/Paramount transaction. These fees relate to services rendered prior to the completion of the Windrose merger in December 2006. Due to the recipients’ current employment status with the company, the fees have been expensed as compensation rather than included in the purchase price of the acquisition, as is typical with such fees. These fees are excluded from the company’s normalized FFO guidance for 2007.

The company’s guidance excludes any impairments, unanticipated additions to the loan loss reserve or other additional one-time items, including any additional cash payments other than normal monthly rental payments. Please see Exhibit 16 for a reconciliation of the outlook for net income available to common stockholders to FFO and FAD.

Supplemental Reporting Measures. The company believes that net income available to common stockholders (NICS), 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 real estate depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Normalized FFO represents FFO adjusted for unusual and non-recurring items. FAD represents FFO excluding the net straight-line rental adjustments, rental income related to above/below market leases and amortization of deferred loan expenses and less cash used to fund capital expenditures, tenant improvements and lease commissions. Normalized FAD represents FAD excluding prepaid/straight-line rent cash receipts and adjusted for unusual and non-recurring items.

EBITDA stands for earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. 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. Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA as adjusted for stock-based compensation expenses and the provision for loan losses pursuant to covenant provisions of our unsecured lines of credit arrangements. The company primarily utilizes EBITDA to measure its interest coverage ratio, which represents EBITDA divided by total interest, and its fixed charge coverage ratio, which represents EBITDA divided by fixed charges. Fixed charges include total interest, secured debt principal amortization and preferred stock dividends.

Net operating income (NOI) is used to evaluate the operating performance of certain real estate properties such as medical office buildings. The company defines NOI as total revenues, including tenant reimbursements and discontinued operations, less property operating expenses, which exclude depreciation and amortization, general and administrative expenses, impairments and interest expense. The company believes NOI provides investors relevant and useful information because it measures the operating performance of our medical office buildings at the property level on an unleveraged basis. The company uses NOI to make decisions about resource allocations and to assess the property level performance of our medical office buildings.

The company’s supplemental reporting measures 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 and in making operating decisions. Additionally, they are utilized by the Board of Directors to evaluate management. The supplemental reporting measures 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

Page 3 of 15


2Q07 Earnings Release		August 7, 2007

profitability or liquidity. Finally, the supplemental reporting measures, 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 the Exhibits for reconciliations of the supplemental reporting measures.
