§ | For all of 2007, our core portfolio retention rate was 72.8% with positive net absorption of 294,805 square feet. In the fourth quarter of 2007, we achieved a 6.6% increase on our renewal rental rates and a 2.7% increase on our new lease rental rates, both on a GAAP basis. |

As previously disclosed on December 20, 2007, we also completed the sale and contribution of a portfolio of 29 suburban Philadelphia office properties to a joint venture consisting of DRA Advisors LLC with an 80% interest and affiliates of Brandywine Realty Trust with a 20% interest. We sold the venture an 89% interest in three of the properties, and sold or contributed 100% interests in the rest. The overall portfolio was valued at $245.4 million (reflecting 100% interests throughout).
