(1) For the years ended December 31, 2013, 2011 and 2010, the coverage deficiencies approximated $219.8 million, $95.9 million and $234.3 million, respectively. All 2013 and prior year ratios have been reduced due to the disposition of properties which resulted in the inclusion of those properties in discontinued operations. The ratios have been further reduced due to non-cash depreciation expense and impairment charges and premiums on the redemption of Preferred Shares/Preference Units. The Company was in compliance with its unsecured public debt covenants for all periods presented.
