Explanation of Responses:

* If the form is filed by more than one reporting person, see Instruction 4(b)(v).
** Intentional misstatements or omissions of facts constitute Federal Criminal Violations. See 18 U.S.C. 1001 and 15 U.S.C. 78ff(a).
(1) LLC interests in LLC's that held real estate were exchanged for Issuer common stock at the closing of the initial public offering which occurred on December 20, 2004. The number of shares allocated in exchange for the LLC Interests were based upon a formula set forth in the Issuer's Prospectus dated December 14, 2004. The initial public offering price was $17 per share.
(2) Each unit is the economic eqivalent of one share of common stock. This amended report includes reporting person?s phantom units in the issuer?s Deferred Compensation Plan excluded from report originally filed. The phantom units derived from the reporting person?s election to have deferred compensation balances track the performance of the issuer?s common stock beginning on the date of the consummation of the issuer?s initial public offering, as disclosed in the issuer?s prospectus dated December 14, 2004 in the section entitled Deferred Compensation Plan and in footnote (2) of the section entitled Principal Stockholders.

Note: File three copies of this Form, one of which must be manually signed. If space is insufficient, see Instruction 6 for procedure.
