FOOTNOTES:
(1) On December 17, 2012, Boston Private Bank & Trust Company announced that it had entered into an agreement to sell its three offices in the Pacific Northwest region. The sale closed on May 10, 2013, at which time the Company recorded a gain on sale of $10.6 million.
 
(2) Net income from discontinued operations consists of contingent payments or expenses related to our divested affiliates, including Davidson Trust Company; Boston Private Value Investors, Inc.; Sand Hill Advisors, LLC; RINET Company, LLC; Gibraltar Private Bank & Trust Company; and Westfield Capital Management Company, LLC.
 
(3) Adjustments to net income attributable to the Company to arrive at net income attributable to the common shareholders, as presented in these tables, include decrease/ (increase) in noncontrolling interests redemption value, dividends paid on preferred stock, and dividends on participating securities.
 
(4)

When the Company has positive net income from continuing operations attributable to the common shareholders, the Company adds additional shares to basic weighted average shares outstanding to arrive at diluted weighted average shares outstanding for the diluted earnings per share calculation. These additional shares reflect the assumed exercise, conversion, or contingent issuance of dilutive securities. If the additional shares would result in anti-dilution they would be excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation. The potential dilutive shares relate to: unexercised stock options, unvested non-participating restricted stock, and unexercised stock warrants. See Part II. Item 8. "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data - Note 16: Earnings Per Share" in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013 for additional information.

 
(5) The Company uses certain non-GAAP financial measures, such as: Tangible Book Value Per Share and the Tangible Common Equity ("TCE") to Tangible Assets ("TA") ratio to provide information for investors to effectively analyze financial trends of ongoing business activities, and to enhance comparability with peers across the financial sector.
Reconciliations from the Company's GAAP Total Equity to Total Assets ratio to the Non-GAAP TCE to TA ratio, and from GAAP Book Value to Non-GAAP Tangible Book Value are presented below:
The Company calculates Tangible Assets by adjusting Total Assets to exclude Goodwill and Intangible Assets.
