The Company did not acquire any properties during the three months ended March 31, 2010. In the first quarter of 2011, the Company adjusted its anticipated holding period for its Gateway West property, which is located in the Companys Maryland reporting segment, and, in April 2011, the Company entered into a contract to sell the property. As a result, the Company recorded a $2.7 million impairment charge in the first quarter of 2011.

Rental revenue increased $5.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to the same period in 2010, which was due to increased revenues from the Companys recent acquisitions. The Non-comparable Properties contributed $5.3 million of additional rental revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2011. Rental revenue for the Comparable Portfolio remained flat for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to 2010, as an increase in rental rates was offset by an increase in vacancy. The weighted average occupancy of the Comparable Portfolio was 83.9% for the quarter ended March 31, 2011 compared with 85.0% for the same period in 2010.
