Occupancy and Leasing Results (excluding properties classified in discontinued operations):

As of September 30, 2011, 87.0% of CWH’s total square feet was leased, compared to 87.5% as of June 30, 2011 and 88.3% as of September 30, 2010.

CWH signed lease renewals for 1,459,000 square feet and new leases for 423,000 square feet during the quarter ended September 30, 2011 which had weighted average rental rates that were 1% above prior rents for the same space. Average lease terms for leases signed during the third quarter of 2011 were 8.1 years. Commitments for tenant improvement and leasing commission (TI/LC) costs for leases signed during the quarter ended September 30, 2011 totaled $15.05 per square foot on average.

Recent Investment and Sales Activities:

Since the announcement of 2011 second quarter results on August 3, 2011, CWH has entered agreements to acquire two central business district, or CBD, office properties with approximately 1.9 million combined square feet for an aggregate purchase price of $249.6 million, including the assumption of approximately $148.0 million of mortgage debt and excluding closing costs. CWH has also entered agreements to sell 16 properties with approximately 570,000 combined square feet for an aggregate sale price of $6.5 million, excluding closing costs.

  • In August 2011, CWH entered an agreement to acquire a CBD office property located in Chicago, IL with 1,006,574 square feet. This property is 95% leased to 56 tenants for a weighted (by rents) average lease term of 5.1 years. The purchase price is $150.6 million, including the assumption of approximately $148.0 million of mortgage debt and excluding closing costs. CWH expects to acquire this property during the fourth quarter of 2011; however, this acquisition is subject to CWH’s satisfactory completion of customary closing conditions, including the assumption of existing mortgage debt. Accordingly, CWH can provide no assurance that it will acquire this property in that time period or at all.
  • In October 2011, CWH entered an agreement to acquire a CBD office property located in Hartford, CT with 884,669 square feet. This property is 98% leased to 20 tenants for a weighted (by rents) average lease term of 7.5 years. The purchase price is $99.0 million, excluding closing costs. CWH expects to acquire this property during the fourth quarter of 2011; however, this acquisition is subject to CWH’s satisfactory completion of diligence and other customary closing conditions and CWH can provide no assurance that it will acquire this property in that time period or at all.
  • In October 2011, CWH entered an agreement to sell 16 industrial properties located in Dearborn, MI with approximately 570,000 combined square feet for $6.5 million, excluding closing costs. CWH expects to sell these properties during the fourth quarter of 2011; however, this sale is subject to satisfactory completion of buyer’s diligence and other customary closing conditions and CWH can provide no assurance that it will sell any of these properties in that time period or at all.

Also since August 3, 2011, CWH has closed on the previously reported purchase of three CBD office properties located in Chicago (two properties) and New Orleans (one property) with approximately 2.8 million combined square feet for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $492.0 million, including the assumption of $265.0 million of mortgage debt and excluding closing costs. CWH has also closed on the previously reported sale to Senior Housing Properties Trust of 13 properties with approximately 1.3 million combined square feet for an aggregate sale price of $167.0 million, excluding closing costs. In addition, CWH has terminated a previously reported agreement to acquire a CBD office property located in Portland, OR with 106,658 square feet for $34.1 million.

Recent Financing Activities:

In July 2011, CWH issued 11.5 million common shares in a public offering, raising net proceeds of approximately $264 million. CWH used the net proceeds from this offering to repay amounts outstanding under its revolving credit facility and for general business purposes, including funding acquisitions.

In July 2011, CWH prepaid at par plus a premium $23.2 million of 8.05% mortgage debt due in 2012, using cash on hand and proceeds from its 11.5 million common share offering.

In October 2011, CWH amended its existing $750 million unsecured revolving credit facility. Prior to this amendment, CWH’s revolving credit facility had a maturity date of August 8, 2013 and interest paid on drawings was LIBOR plus 200 basis points, subject to adjustments based on changes to CWH’s credit ratings. The maturity date of the amended credit facility was extended to October 19, 2015 and interest paid on drawings was reduced to LIBOR plus 125 basis points, subject to adjustments based on changes to CWH’s credit ratings. The amended revolving credit facility provides CWH the option to extend the maturity date for one year to October 19, 2016 on certain conditions. In addition, the amended facility includes a feature under which maximum borrowings may be increased up to $1.5 billion in certain circumstances.

In October 2011, CWH also amended its existing unsecured term loan. Prior to this amendment, CWH’s term loan had a principal balance of $400.0 million, a maturity date of December 15, 2015 and an interest rate set at LIBOR plus 200 basis points, subject to adjustments based on changes to CWH’s credit ratings. The amended term loan increases borrowings to $557.0 million and, for $500.0 million of the term loan, eliminates the prepayment premium, extends the maturity date to December 15, 2016, and reduces interest paid on borrowings to LIBOR plus 150 basis points, subject to adjustments based on changes to CWH’s credit ratings. In addition, the amended term loan includes a feature under which maximum borrowings may be increased by up to $1.0 billion in certain circumstances. Three lenders representing $57.0 million of aggregate borrowings were unable to commit to the amended term loan. Accordingly, these three lenders will be subject to the terms of the old term loan and CWH has agreed to repay these lenders in December 2012 when there will be no prepayment penalty.

(1) CWH computes FFO and Normalized FFO as shown above. FFO is computed on the basis defined by The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, or NAREIT, which is net income, computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding gain or loss on sale of properties, plus real estate depreciation and amortization and FFO from equity investees. CWH’s calculation of Normalized FFO differs from NAREIT's definition of FFO because it excludes acquisition related costs, gains from issuance of shares by equity investees, gain and loss on early extinguishment of debt unless settled in cash, loss on asset impairment, the difference between average minimum rent and interest earned from direct financing lease and the difference between FFO and Normalized FFO from equity investees. CWH considers FFO and Normalized FFO to be appropriate measures of performance for a REIT, along with net income and cash flow from operating, investing and financing activities. CWH believes that FFO and Normalized FFO provide useful information to investors because by excluding the effects of certain historical amounts, such as depreciation expense, FFO and Normalized FFO can facilitate a comparison of operating performances between periods. FFO and Normalized FFO are among the factors considered by CWH’s Board of Trustees when determining the amount of distributions to shareholders. Other factors include, but are not limited to, requirements to maintain CWH’s status as a REIT, limitations in our revolving credit facility, term loan agreement and public debt covenants, the availability of debt and equity capital to CWH and CWH’s expectation of its future capital requirements and operating performance. FFO and Normalized FFO do not represent cash generated by operating activities in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered as alternatives to net income or cash flow from operating activities, determined in accordance with GAAP, as indicators of CWH’s financial performance or liquidity, nor are FFO and Normalized FFO necessarily indicative of sufficient cash flow to fund all of CWH’s needs. CWH believes FFO and Normalized FFO may facilitate an understanding of its consolidated historical operating results. FFO and Normalized FFO should be considered in conjunction with net income, net income available for common shareholders and cash flow from operating activities as presented in CWH’s condensed consolidated statements of income and condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. Other REITs and real estate companies may calculate FFO and Normalized FFO differently than CWH.

(2) As of September 30, 2011, our 15,180 outstanding series D preferred shares were convertible into 7,298 common shares. The effect of a conversion of our series D convertible preferred shares on income from continuing operations available for common shareholders per share is anti-dilutive to income, but dilutive to FFO and Normalized FFO for most periods presented. Set forth below is the calculation of diluted net income available for common shareholders, diluted FFO available for common shareholders, diluted Normalized FFO available for common shareholders and diluted weighted average common shares outstanding.
