PASADENA, CA. - February 9, 2009 – Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc. (NYSE: ARE) today announced operating and financial results for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2008.

For the fourth quarter of 2008, we reported FFO available to common stockholders of $49,450,000, or $1.55 per share (diluted), compared to $46,324,000, or $1.46 per share (diluted), for the fourth quarter of 2007. Comparing the fourth quarter of 2008 to the fourth quarter of 2007, FFO available to common stockholders and FFO per share (diluted) increased 7% and 6%, respectively. For the year ended December 31, 2008, we reported FFO available to common stockholders of $193,310,000, or $6.06 per share (diluted), after supplemental adjustments, compared to $170,999,000, or $5.70 per share (diluted), after supplemental adjustments, for the year ended December 31, 2007. Comparing the year ended December 31, 2008 to the year ended December 31, 2007, FFO available to common stockholders and FFO per share (diluted) increased 13% and 6%, respectively, after supplemental adjustments. In 2008, we recognized additional rental income aggregating $11,268,000, or $0.35 per share (diluted), related to a modification of a lease for a property in South San Francisco, Ca. and a write-off of deferred rent. In 2008, we also recognized non-cash impairment charges aggregating $13,251,000, or $0.42 per share (diluted), for other-than-temporary declines in the fair value of certain investments. Additionally, in 2008, we incurred non-cash impairment charges aggregating $4,650,000, or $0.15 per share (diluted), related to two properties. In 2007, we recognized a preferred stock redemption charge of $2,799,000, or $0.09 per share (diluted).

FFO is a non-GAAP measure widely used by publicly traded real estate investment trusts. A reconciliation of GAAP net income available to common stockholders to FFO available to common stockholders on both an aggregate and per share (diluted) basis, is included in the financial information accompanying this press release. The primary reconciling item between GAAP net income available to common stockholders and FFO available to common stockholders is depreciation and amortization expense. Depreciation and amortization expense for the three months ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 was $28,483,000 and $26,969,000, respectively. Depreciation and amortization expense for the year ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 was $108,743,000 and $97,335,000, respectively. Net income available to common stockholders for the fourth quarter of 2008 was $21,071,000, or $0.66 per share (diluted), compared to $22,277,000, or $0.70 per share (diluted), for the fourth quarter of 2007. Net income available to common stockholders for the year ended December 31, 2008 was $98,644,000, or $3.09 per share (diluted), compared to $78,905,000, or $2.63 per share (diluted), for the year ended December 31, 2007. Net income available to common stockholders for the year ended December 31, 2008 included additional rental income aggregating $11,268,000 related to a modification of a lease and a write-off of deferred rent, non-cash impairment charges aggregating $17,901,000 and gains on sales of properties aggregating $20,401,000. The non-cash impairment charges consisted of $4,650,000 related to two properties and $13,251,000 for other-than-temporary declines in the fair value of certain investments. Net income available to common stockholders for the year ended December 31, 2007 included gains on sales of four properties and four land parcels aggregating $7,976,000 and a preferred stock redemption charge aggregating $2,799,000. Excluding these items, net income available to common stockholders for the year ended December 31, 2008 was $84,876,000, or $2.66 per share (diluted), compared to net income available to common stockholders of $73,728,000, or $2.46 per share (diluted), for the year ended December 31, 2007.

For the fourth quarter of 2008, we executed a total of 34 leases for approximately 513,000 rentable square feet of space at 26 different properties (excluding month-to-month leases). Of this total, approximately 373,000 rentable square feet related to new or renewal leases of previously leased space and approximately 140,000 rentable square feet related to developed, redeveloped or previously vacant space. Of the 140,000 rentable square feet, approximately 96,000 rentable square feet were delivered from our development or redevelopment programs, with the remaining approximately 44,000 rentable square feet related to previously vacant space. Rental rates for these new or renewal leases were on average approximately 13.9% higher (on a GAAP basis) than rental rates for expiring leases.

For the year ended December 31, 2008, we executed a total of 141 leases for approximately 2,161,000 rentable square feet of space at 65 different properties (excluding month-to-month leases). Of this total, approximately 1,254,000 rentable square feet were for new or renewal leases related to previously leased space and approximately 907,000 rentable square feet were for redeveloped, developed or previously vacant space. Of the 907,000 rentable square feet, approximately 630,000 rentable square feet were delivered from our redevelopment or development programs, with the remaining approximately 277,000 rentable square feet related to previously vacant space. Rental rates for new or renewal leases were on average approximately 15.0% higher (on a GAAP basis) than rental rates for expiring leases.

During the fourth quarter of 2008, we sold one property located in the Eastern Massachusetts market with approximately 25,000 rentable square feet for approximately $2 million. During the year ended December 31, 2008, we sold eight properties, including five properties in the east bay area of the San Francisco Bay market, aggregating approximately 434,000 rentable square feet. The aggregate sales price for the properties sold during the year ended December 31, 2008 was approximately $86 million. As of December 31, 2008, three properties approximating 64,000 rentable square feet were classified as “held for sale.” In January 2009, we sold these three properties for an aggregate sales price of approximately $14 million. The net proceeds from these sales were used to repay outstanding debt.

In December 2008, we announced that a multinational, large cap biopharmaceutical company entered into a long-term lease at The Alexandria Center for Science and Technology at Mission Bay, San Francisco, California. We also announced that Pfizer, Inc. entered into a long-term lease at Technology Square in Cambridge, Massachusetts.

As of December 31, 2008, approximately 89% of our leases (on a rentable square footage basis) were triple net leases, requiring tenants to pay substantially all real estate taxes and insurance, common area and other operating expenses, including increases thereto. In addition, as of December 31, 2008, approximately 8% of our leases (on a rentable square footage basis) required the tenants to pay a majority of operating expenses. Additionally, as of December 31, 2008, approximately 92% of our leases (on a rentable square footage basis) provided for the recapture of certain capital expenditures and approximately 94% of our leases (on a rentable square footage basis) contained effective annual rent escalations that were either fixed or indexed based on the consumer price index or another index.

Based on our current view of existing market conditions and certain current assumptions, our guidance for FFO per share (diluted) and earnings per share (diluted) is as follows:

****	2009
FFO per share<br> (diluted) (1)	$6.26 (1)
Earnings per<br> share (diluted) (1)	$2.73 (1)

(1) Effective January 1, 2009, we will adopt FASB Staff Position No. APB 14-1, “Accounting for Convertible Debt Instruments That May Be Settled in Cash Upon Conversion (Including Partial Cash Settlement)” (“FSP APB 14-1”) and FASB Staff Position No. EITF 03-6-1, “Determining Whether Instruments Granted in Share-Based Payment Transactions Are Participating Securities” (“FSP EITF 03-6-1”), both of which require retrospective application to prior periods. Our guidance for 2009 includes the estimated additional non-cash interest we will recognize under FSP APB 14-1 which affects the accounting treatment for convertible debt instruments, such as our outstanding unsecured convertible notes. In addition, our guidance for 2009 includes the estimated impact related to FSP EITF 03-6-1 which requires unvested share-based payment awards with nonforfeitable rights to receive dividends or dividend equivalents to be considered participating securities for the purposes of applying the two-class method of calculating earnings per share. As a result, net income available to common stockholders, earnings per share, FFO and FFO per share will be adjusted for an allocation of net income to unvested stock awards. We are still in the process of evaluating the overall impact of FSP APB 14-1 and FSP EITF 03-6-1, however, we believe that 2008 FFO per share (diluted) and earnings per share (diluted) as reported at $5.85 and $3.09, respectively, would have been approximately $5.62 and $2.89, respectively, after considering the estimated impact of FSP APB 14-1 and FSP EITF 03-6-1. 2008 FFO per share (diluted) included additional rental income related to a modification of a lease and a write-off of deferred rent aggregating $11,268,000 and non-cash impairment charges aggregating $17,901,000. 2008 earnings per share (diluted) included additional rental income related to a modification of a lease and a write-off of deferred rent aggregating $11,268,000, non-cash impairment charges aggregating $17,901,000 and gains on sales of property aggregating $20,401,000.

Fundsfrom Operations

United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) basis accounting for real estate assets utilizes historical cost accounting and assumes real estate values diminish over time. In an effort to overcome the difference between real estate values and historical cost accounting for real estate assets, the Board of Governors of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) established the measurement tool of Funds From Operations (“FFO”). Since its introduction, FFO has become a widely used non-GAAP financial measure among real estate investment trusts (“REITs”). We believe that FFO is helpful to investors as an additional measure of the performance of an equity REIT. We compute FFO in accordance with standards established by the Board of Governors of NAREIT in its April 2002 White Paper (the “White Paper”) and related implementation guidance, which may differ from the methodology for calculating FFO utilized by other equity REITs, and, accordingly, may not be comparable to such other REITs. The White Paper defines FFO as net income (loss) (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains (or losses) from sales, plus real estate related depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures.

FFO should not be considered as an alternative to net income (determined in accordance with GAAP) as an indication of financial performance, or to cash flows from operating activities (determined in accordance with GAAP) as a measure of our liquidity, nor is it indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs, including our ability to make distributions.

The following tables present 1) a reconciliation of net income available to common stockholders, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure to FFO, to FFO available to common stockholders and 2) a reconciliation of earnings per share (diluted) to FFO per share (diluted), in each case, for the three months and year ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 (in thousands, except per share data):

Gain on sales of property is included<br> in the income statement in income from discontinued operations, net.
(3)	For the year ended<br> December 31, 2008, we recognized additional rental income aggregating<br> $11,268,000 related to a modification of a lease and a write-off of deferred<br> rent and non-cash impairment charges aggregating $17,901,000. The non-cash<br> impairment charges consisted of $4,650,000 related to two properties and<br> $13,251,000 for other-than-temporary declines in the fair value of certain<br> investments. FFO per share (diluted) for the year ended December 31,<br> 2008 excluding these items was $6.06.
(4)	During the first quarter of<br> 2007, we redeemed our 9.10% series B cumulative redeemable preferred stock.<br> Accordingly, in compliance with FASB Emerging Issues Task Force D-42 (“EITF<br> Topic D-42”), we recorded a charge of $2,799,000, or $0.09 per share<br> (diluted), for costs related to the redemption of our series B preferred<br> stock. FFO per share (diluted) for the year ended December 31, 2007<br> excluding this item was $5.70.

(e)	As of December 31,<br> 2008, assets for which capitalization of interest is required pursuant to<br> Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 34, “Capitalization of<br> Interest Cost” (“SFAS 34”), approximated $1.4 billion. This amount is<br> classified as properties undergoing development and redevelopment, and land<br> held for development on our balance sheet. The weighted average interest rate<br> used in the calculation of capitalized interest required pursuant to SFAS 34<br> was approximately 5.37% for the three months ended December 31, 2008.<br> SFAS 34 requires the interest rate for capitalization to be based on<br> applicable interest costs related to borrowings outstanding during the<br> period, including the impact of interest rate swap agreements, debt<br> premiums/discounts and amortization of loan fees.
(f)	Includes properties “held<br> for sale” during the applicable periods such assets were “held for sale.” As<br> of December 31, 2008, three properties aggregating 64,218 rentable<br> square feet were classified as “held for sale.”
(g)	During<br> the fourth quarter of 2008, we sold one asset located in the Eastern<br> Massachusetts market. During the second quarter of 2008, we sold one asset<br> located in the San Diego market. During the<br> first quarter of 2008, we sold six properties and transferred one property<br> from operating assets to embedded future development opportunities. During<br> the fourth quarter of 2007, we sold one property and transferred two<br> properties from operating assets to embedded future development<br> opportunities.
(h)	Debt to total market<br> capitalization is the ratio of our share of total debt (secured notes<br> payable, unsecured line of credit and unsecured term loan and unsecured<br> convertible notes) to total market capitalization. Total market<br> capitalization is equal to outstanding shares of series C preferred stock and<br> common stock multiplied by the related closing price at the end of each<br> period presented, plus series D cumulative convertible preferred stock at<br> liquidation value, plus our share of total debt.

---	---
(2)	Our borrowing capacity and<br> financial covenants under our unsecured line of credit and unsecured term<br> loan are not directly dependent or variable based upon our stock price.<br> Interest on outstanding borrowings under our unsecured credit facility is<br> based upon LIBOR plus 1.00% to 1.45% depending on our leverage or the higher<br> of the Federal Funds rate plus 0.50% or Bank of America’s (“BofA”) prime rate<br> plus 0.0% to 0.25% depending on our leverage. As of December 31, 2008,<br> one-month LIBOR was 0.44%, the Federal Funds rate was 0-0.25%, and BofA’s<br> prime rate was 3.25%.
(3)	Assumes we exercise our<br> sole right to extend the maturity date of our unsecured line of credit from<br> October 2010 to October 2011 and our unsecured term loan from<br> October 2011 to October 2012. As of December 31, 2008, cash<br> and cash equivalents were approximately $71.2 million.
(4)	On or after<br> January 15, 2012, we have the right to redeem our 3.70% unsecured<br> convertible notes, in whole or in part, at any time from time to time, for<br> cash equal to 100% of the principal amounts of the notes to be redeemed plus<br> any accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the redemption date.<br> Holders of the notes may require us to repurchase their notes, in whole or in<br> part, on January 15, 2012, 2017 and 2022 for cash equal to 100% of the<br> principal amount of the notes to be purchased plus any accrued and unpaid<br> interest to, but excluding, the repurchase date. Additional information<br> regarding our unsecured convertible notes is contained in our Form 10-K<br> filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
(5)	Represents the weighted<br> average contractual interest rate plus the impact of debt premiums/discounts<br> and our interest rate swap agreements. The weighted average interest rate<br> excludes bank fees and amortization of loan fees. See page 11 for<br> further details of our interest rate swap agreements.
(6)	Assuming we elect to extend<br> our unsecured line of credit and unsecured term loan to October 2011 and<br> October 2012, respectively, the weighted average maturity on our<br> unsecured debt and total debt would be 3.3 years and 3.5 years, respectively.
(7)	Assuming we elect to extend<br> our unsecured line of credit and unsecured term loan to October 2011 and<br> October 2012, respectively, the weighted average maturity on our hedged<br> floating rate debt, unhedged floating rate debt and total debt would be 3.6<br> years, 2.1 years and 3.5 years, respectively. The interest rate related to<br> outstanding borrowings for our unhedged floating rate debt is based upon<br> one-month LIBOR. The interest rate resets periodically and will vary in<br> future periods.

NOTE: This summary represents operating data for all properties that were fully operating for the entire periods presented for the quarter periods (the “Fourth Quarter Same Properties”) and for the full year periods (the “2008 Same Properties”). Same property occupancy for the quarters ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 was approximately 95.6% and approximately 95.8%, respectively. Same Property Occupancy for the year ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 was approximately 95.7% for both periods respectively. Properties undergoing redevelopment are excluded from same property results.

(1)	Revenue less operating expenses computed in<br> accordance with GAAP is total revenue associated with the Fourth Quarter Same<br> Properties and 2008 Same Properties, as applicable (excluding lease<br> termination fees, if any), less property operating expenses. Under GAAP,<br> rental revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the respective<br> lease terms. Revenue less operating expenses on a cash basis is total revenue<br> associated with the Fourth Quarter Same Properties and 2008 Same Properties<br> (excluding lease termination fees, if any), less property operating expenses,<br> adjusted to exclude the effect of straight-line rent adjustments required by<br> GAAP. Straight-line rent adjustments for the quarters ended December 31,<br> 2008 and 2007 for the Fourth Quarter Same Properties were $1,784,000 and<br> $4,192,000, respectively. Straight-line rent adjustments for the year ended<br> December 31, 2008 and 2007 for the 2008 Same Properties were $5,152,000<br> and $13,515,000, respectively. We believe that revenue less operating<br> expenses on a cash basis is helpful to investors as an additional measure of<br> operating performance because it eliminates straight-line rent adjustments to<br> rental revenue.
(2)	Fees received from tenants in connection with<br> termination of their leases, if any, are excluded from revenue in the Summary<br> of Same Property Comparisons. As of December 31, 2008, approximately 89%<br> of our leases (on a rentable square footage basis) were triple net leases,<br> requiring tenants to pay substantially all real estate taxes and insurance,<br> common area and other operating expenses, including increases thereto. In<br> addition, as of December 31, 2008, approximately 8% of our leases (on a<br> rentable square footage basis) required the tenants to pay a majority of<br> operating expenses.

Our redevelopment program involves ongoing activities necessary for the permanent change of use of applicable redevelopment space to office/laboratory space. Spaces currently built out with laboratory improvements are generally not placed into our value-add redevelopment program. As required under GAAP, interest and other costs directly related and essential to the project are capitalized on redevelopment properties on the basis allocable only to that portion of space undergoing redevelopment. In addition to properties undergoing redevelopment, as of December 31, 2008, our asset base contained embedded opportunities for future permanent change of use to office/laboratory space through redevelopment aggregating approximately 1,565,000 rentable square feet. See Summary of Embedded Future Development and Redevelopment Square Footage on page 20.

(1)	This project also includes<br> site work and a multi-story below and above ground parking structure to<br> support both the existing building undergoing redevelopment and an additional<br> building targeted for development in the future. The entitlement process for<br> this project was completed in 2007.
(2)	The project will be<br> delivered to the tenant for occupancy in February 2009.
(3)	The project was delivered<br> to the tenant for occupancy in January 2009.

In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 34, “Capitalization of Interest Cost” (“SFAS 34”) and Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 67, “Accounting for Costs and Initial Rental Operations of Real Estate Projects” (“SFAS 67”), we are required to capitalize direct construction, including pre-construction costs, interest, property taxes, insurance and other costs directly related and essential to the construction of a project while activities are ongoing to prepare an asset for its intended use. Pre-construction costs include costs related to the development of plans and the process of obtaining entitlements and permits from government authorities. Costs incurred after a project is substantially complete and ready for its intended use are expensed as incurred. Should development, redevelopment or construction activity cease, construction costs, including interest, would no longer be eligible for capitalization under SFAS 34 and SFAS 67 and would be expensed as incurred.

(1)

Our aggregate construction costs to date related to major properties undergoing vertical ground-up development approximate $395 per developable square foot. Amount excludes our investment per square foot in land. Our development project in China aggregating approximately 280,000 rentable square feet is nearing shell completion. We are working with the local government on a substantial modification of our land use right to expand it to a broader range of uses. As of December 31, 2008, our remaining estimated cost to complete shell construction for our development project in China is less than $7 million.

The embedded future development and redevelopment square footage shown above represents future ground-up development projects and future redevelopment (permanent change in use of applicable space to office/laboratory space) projects. A significant portion of our embedded future development square footage is in the development/pre-construction phase (entitlement, permitting, design, etc.). See discussion on SFAS 34 and SFAS 67 on page 19. Commencement of construction will depend on numerous factors, including the successful completion of development/pre-construction activities and management’s assessment of overall market conditions. As required under GAAP, direct construction, interest, property taxes, insurance and other costs directly related and essential to the development/pre-construction, or construction of a project, is mandated to be capitalized during pre-construction when activities are ongoing to bring these assets to their intended use.

(1)	Development/pre-construction square footage is<br> included in Total Embedded Development Square Footage shown above.
(2)	In addition, we have the right to develop an<br> additional parcel in New York City with approximately 442,000 rentable square<br> feet. This square footage is not included in the embedded future development<br> square footage shown above.
