PASADENA, CA. – February 11, 2010 – Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc. (NYSE: ARE) today announced operating and financial results for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2009.

FinancialResults

For the fourth quarter of 2009, we reported funds from operations (“FFO”) attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders of $54,247,000, or $1.09 per share (diluted), compared to FFO attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders of $47,190,000, or $1.48 per share (diluted), for the fourth quarter of 2008.  Comparing the fourth quarter of 2009 to the fourth quarter of 2008, FFO attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders increased 15% and FFO per share (diluted) attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders decreased 26%.  The weighted average number of basic and diluted common stock outstanding for calculating FFO per share (diluted) attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders totaled 43,715,462 and 49,547,402, respectively, for the fourth quarter of 2009 and 31,757,072 and 31,810,348, respectively, for the fourth quarter of 2008.  For the year ended December 31, 2009, we reported FFO attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders of $234,696,000, or $5.52 per share (diluted), compared to FFO attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders of $177,519,000, or $5.59 per share (diluted), for year ended December 31, 2008.  Comparing the year ended December 31, 2009 to the year ended December 31, 2008, FFO attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders increased 32% and FFO per share (diluted) attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders decreased 1%.

FFO is a non-GAAP measure widely used by publicly traded real estate investment trusts.  We compute FFO in accordance with standards established by the Board of Governors of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) in its April 2002 White Paper and related implementation guidance.  A reconciliation of net income attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) to FFO attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders is included in the financial information accompanying this press release.  The primary reconciling item between GAAP net income attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders and FFO attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders is depreciation and amortization expense. Depreciation and amortization expense for the three months ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 was $29,004,000 and $28,483,000, respectively.  Depreciation and amortization expense for the year ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 was $118,508,000 and $108,743,000, respectively.  Net income attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders for the fourth quarter of 2009 was $21,650,000, or $0.49 per share (diluted), compared to net income attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders of $19,224,000, or $0.60 per share (diluted), for the fourth quarter of 2008.  The weighted average number of basic and diluted common stock outstanding for calculating earnings per share attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders totaled 43,715,462 and 43,750,301, respectively, for the fourth quarter of 2009 and 31,757,072 and 31,810,348, respectively, for the fourth quarter of 2008.  Net income attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders for the year ended December 31, 2009 was $104,974,000, or $2.72 per share (diluted), compared to net income attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders of $90,751,000, or $2.86 per share (diluted), for the year ended December 31, 2008.

Leasing Activity

For the year ended December 31, 2009, we executed a total of 142 leases for approximately 1,864,000 rentable square feet of space at 57 different properties (excluding month-to-month leases).  Of this total, approximately 1,188,000 rentable square feet related to new or renewal leases of previously leased space and approximately 676,000 rentable square feet related to developed, redeveloped or previously vacant space.  Of the 676,000 rentable square feet, approximately 310,000 rentable square feet were delivered from our development or redevelopment programs, with the remaining approximately 366,000 rentable square feet related to previously vacant space.  Rental rates for these new or renewal leases were on average approximately 3.5% higher (on a GAAP basis) than rental rates for expiring leases.

For the fourth quarter of 2009, we executed a total of 40 leases for approximately 489,000 rentable square feet of space at 31 different properties (excluding month-to-month leases).  Of this total, approximately 374,000 rentable square feet related to new or renewal leases of previously leased space and approximately 115,000 rentable square feet related to developed, redeveloped or previously vacant space.  Of the 115,000 rentable square feet, approximately 58,000 rentable square feet were related to our development or redevelopment programs, with the remaining approximately 57,000 rentable square feet related to previously vacant space.  Rental rates for these new or renewal leases were on average approximately 1.5% higher (on a GAAP basis) than rental rates for expiring leases.

Page 3

As of December 31, 2009, approximately 88% 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, approximately 8% of our leases (on a rentable square footage basis) required the tenants to pay a majority of operating expenses.  Additionally, approximately 91% of our leases (on a rentable square footage basis) provided for the recapture of certain capital expenditures, and approximately 93% 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.

Dispositions and Properties “Held for Sale”

During the year ended December 31, 2009, we sold four properties aggregating 111,776 rentable square feet to life science users.  Three of these properties were located in the San Diego market and were sold in the first quarter of 2009 for approximately $14.5 million at a gain of approximately $2.2 million.  In the fourth quarter of 2009, we sold one property located in the Suburban Washington, D.C. market aggregating 47,558 rentable square feet to a life science user for approximately $6.4 million at a gain of approximately $393,000.  As of December 31, 2009, three properties aggregating 221,638 rentable square feet were under contract, letter of intent or under negotiation and were classified as “held for sale.”

OtherRecent Events

In October 2009, we closed a 10-year secured loan with an insurance company with a loan amount of $120 million.  The loan is secured by several of our operating properties.

Earnings Outlook

Based on our current view of existing market conditions and certain current assumptions, our updated guidance for FFO per share (diluted) attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders and earnings per share (diluted) attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders is as follows:

**** 2010
FFO per share (diluted)<br> (1) $4.42<br> (1)
Earnings per share<br> (diluted) (1) $1.84<br> (1)

(1)          Our guidance for FFO per share (diluted) for the year ended December 31, 2010 assumes conversion of our 8% unsecured convertible notes as the impact of the conversion is expected to be dilutive under the “if-converted” method.  Our guidance for earnings per share (diluted) for the year ended December 31, 2010, however, does not assume conversion of our 8% unsecured convertible notes as the impact of the conversion is expected to be anti-dilutive under the “if-converted” method.

Client Tenant Base

Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc. (“Alexandria”) has a very broad and diversified quality client tenant base. As of December 31, 2009, on an annualized base rent basis by sector, Alexandria’s multinational pharmaceutical client tenants led by its top client tenants Novartis AG, Roche Holding Ltd, GlaxoSmithKline plc, Pfizer Inc., Johnson & Johnson and Merck & Co., Inc., represented approximately 28% of its client tenant base; revenue producing life science product and service companies led by Quest Diagnostics Incorporated, Qiagen N.V., Laboratory Corporation of America Holdings and Monsanto Company represented approximately 20% of its client tenant base; public biopharmaceutical companies represented approximately 17% of its client tenant base and included the three largest in the sector, Amgen Inc., Gilead Sciences, Inc., Celgene Corporation; government agencies and renowned medical and research institutions represented approximately 15% of its client tenant base and included The Scripps Research Institute, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center, University of Washington, the Burnham Institute for Medical Research and the United States Government; private biopharmaceutical companies represented approximately 13% of its client tenant base and included high-quality, leading-edge companies with blue chip venture and institutional investors, including Achaogen, Inc., Ambrx, Inc., Intellikine, Inc., MacroGenics, Inc. and ToleRx, Inc.;  the remaining approximately 7% of its client tenant base consisted of traditional office tenants.  The two fastest growing client tenant sectors by revenue currently include leading institutional and multinational pharmaceutical.  The unique and innovative business model which Alexandria pioneered is coupled with very strong and unique life sciences and underwriting skills with substantial experience and expertise, long-term life science industry relationships and sophisticated management with both real estate and life science operating experience and expertise, set Alexandria apart from all other publicly-traded REITs.

NoteRegarding Funds from Operations

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 NAREIT established the measurement tool of FFO.  Since its introduction, FFO has become a widely used non-GAAP financial measure among 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.

Company Profile

December 31, 2009

TheCompany

Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc. (the “Company” or “Alexandria”), a self-administered and self-managed real estate investment trust (“REIT”), is the largest owner and pre-eminent and first-in-class REIT focused principally on science-driven cluster formation. Our operating platform is based on the principle of “clustering” with asset and operations located in key life science markets. The Company has significant real estate assets adjacent to key life science entities which we believe results in higher occupancy levels, longer lease terms and higher rental income and returns.  These locations are in the best submarkets in each of the top life science cluster destinations, including San Francisco and San Diego, California, Eastern Massachusetts, New Jersey and Suburban Philadelphia, Southeast, Suburban Washington, D.C., Seattle, Washington and international locations. Client tenants include institutional (universities and independent not-for-profit institutions), pharmaceutical, biotechnology, medical device, product, service and translational entities, as well as government agencies.  The Company was founded in 1994 by Jerry M. Sudarsky and Joel S. Marcus and executed its initial public offering in 1997.  Alexandria is well-known for its very well located high-quality environmentally sustainable real estate, technical infrastructure and unique expertise it provides to its broad and diverse life science industry client tenant base.

Management

Alexandria’s executive and senior management team is highly experienced in the REIT industry (with both real estate and life science experience and expertise) and is the most accomplished team focused on providing high-quality environmentally sustainable real estate, technical infrastructure and unique expertise to the broad and diverse life science industry. Our deep and talented team has decades of real estate and life science industry experience. We believe that our expertise, experience, reputation and key life science relationships provide Alexandria significant competitive advantages in attracting new business opportunities for the Company. Our management team also includes highly experienced regional market directors each averaging over 20 years of real estate experience and over 10 years with Alexandria. Our regional market directors have tremendous experience and valuable relationships that enable Alexandria to develop long-term relationships with pre-eminent life science entities.

Strategy

Alexandria’s primary business objective is to maximize shareholder value by providing its shareholders and employees with the greatest possible total return. The key elements to our strategy include our consistent focus on the top life science cluster destinations with our properties located adjacent to life science entities driving growth and technological advances within each cluster. These adjacency locations are characterized by high barriers to entry, limited supply of available space, and represent highly desirable locations for tenancy by life science entities. Alexandria’s strategy also includes leveraging on its deep and broad life science and real estate relationships in order to attract new and leading life science client tenants and value add real estate opportunities through acquisitions, redevelopment and development.

FinancialResults

For the fourth quarter of 2009, we reported funds from operations (“FFO”) attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders of $54,247,000, or $1.09 per share (diluted), compared to FFO attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders of $47,190,000, or $1.48 per share (diluted), for the fourth quarter of 2008.  Comparing the fourth quarter of 2009 to the fourth quarter of 2008, FFO attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders increased 15% and FFO per share (diluted) attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders decreased 26%.  The weighted average number of basic and diluted common stock outstanding for calculating FFO per share (diluted) attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders totaled 43,715,462 and 49,547,402, respectively, for the fourth quarter of 2009 and 31,757,072 and 31,810,348, respectively, for the fourth quarter of 2008.  For the year ended December 31, 2009, we reported FFO attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders of $234,696,000, or $5.52 per share (diluted), compared to FFO attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders of $177,519,000, or $5.59 per share (diluted), for year ended December 31, 2008.  Comparing the year ended December 31, 2009 to the year ended December 31, 2008, FFO attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders increased 32% and FFO per share (diluted) attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders decreased 1%.

FFO is a non-GAAP measure widely used by publicly traded real estate investment trusts.  We compute FFO in accordance with standards established by the Board of Governors of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) in its April 2002 White Paper and related implementation guidance.  A reconciliation of net income attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) to FFO attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders is included in the financial information accompanying this press release.  The primary reconciling item between GAAP net income attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders and FFO attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders is depreciation and amortization expense. Depreciation and amortization expense for the three months ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 was $29,004,000 and $28,483,000, respectively.  Depreciation and amortization expense for the year ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 was $118,508,000 and $108,743,000, respectively.  Net income attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders for the fourth quarter of 2009 was $21,650,000, or $0.49 per share (diluted), compared to net income attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders of $19,224,000, or $0.60 per share (diluted), for the fourth quarter of 2008.  The weighted average number of basic and diluted common stock outstanding for calculating earnings per share attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders totaled 43,715,462 and 43,750,301, respectively, for the fourth quarter of 2009 and 31,757,072 and 31,810,348, respectively, for the fourth quarter of 2008.  Net income attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders for the year ended December 31, 2009 was $104,974,000, or $2.72 per share (diluted), compared to net income attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders of $90,751,000, or $2.86 per share (diluted), for the year ended December 31, 2008.

Leasing Activity

For the year ended December 31, 2009, we executed a total of 142 leases for approximately 1,864,000 rentable square feet of space at 57 different properties (excluding month-to-month leases).  Of this total, approximately 1,188,000 rentable square feet related to new or renewal leases of previously leased space and approximately 676,000 rentable square feet related to developed, redeveloped or previously vacant space.  Of the 676,000 rentable square feet, approximately 310,000 rentable square feet were delivered from our development or redevelopment programs, with the remaining approximately 366,000 rentable square feet related to previously vacant space.  Rental rates for these new or renewal leases were on average approximately 3.5% higher (on a GAAP basis) than rental rates for expiring leases.

For the fourth quarter of 2009, we executed a total of 40 leases for approximately 489,000 rentable square feet of space at 31 different properties (excluding month-to-month leases).  Of this total, approximately 374,000 rentable square feet related to new or renewal leases of previously leased space and approximately 115,000 rentable square feet related to developed, redeveloped or previously vacant space.  Of the 115,000 rentable square feet, approximately 58,000 rentable square feet were related to our development or redevelopment programs, with the remaining approximately 57,000 rentable square feet related to previously vacant space.  Rental rates for these new or renewal leases were on average approximately 1.5% higher (on a GAAP basis) than rental rates for expiring leases.

During the year ended December 31, 2009, we sold four properties aggregating 111,776 rentable square feet to life science users.  Three of these properties were located in the San Diego market and were sold in the first quarter of 2009 for approximately $14.5 million at a gain of approximately $2.2 million.  In the fourth quarter of 2009, we sold one property located in the Suburban Washington, D.C. market aggregating 47,558 rentable square feet to a life science user for approximately $6.4 million at a gain of approximately $393,000.  As of December 31, 2009, three properties aggregating 221,638 rentable square feet were under contract, letter of intent or under negotiation and were classified as “held for sale.”

OtherRecent Events

In October 2009, we closed a 10-year secured loan with an insurance company with a loan amount of $120 million.  The loan is secured by several of our operating properties.

Earnings Outlook

Based on our current view of existing market conditions and certain current assumptions, our updated guidance for FFO per share (diluted) attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders and earnings per share (diluted) attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders is as follows:

2010
FFO per share (diluted)<br> (1) $4.42<br> (1)
Earnings per share (diluted)<br> (1) $1.84<br> (1)
(1)   Our guidance for FFO per share (diluted)<br> for the year ended December 31, 2010 assumes conversion of our 8%<br> unsecured convertible notes as the impact of the conversion is expected to be<br> dilutive under the “if-converted” method. <br> Our guidance for earnings per share (diluted) for the year ended<br> December 31, 2010, however, does not assume conversion of our 8%<br> unsecured convertible notes as the impact of the conversion is expected to be<br> anti-dilutive under the “if-converted” method.

Value Add Activities Amount Square Feet Cost per Square Foot

Total $ 1,400,795 7,841,152 $ 179

A key component of our business model is our value add redevelopment and development programs.  These programs are focused on providing high quality generic office/laboratory space to meet the real estate requirements and are reusable by various life science industry tenants.  Upon completion, each value add project is expected to generate significant revenues and cash flows.  Our redevelopment and development projects are generally in locations highly desirable by life science entities which we believe results in higher occupancy levels, longer lease terms and higher rental income and returns.  Redevelopment projects consist of the permanent change in use of office, warehouse and shell space into generic office/laboratory space, including the conversion of single tenancy space to multi-tenancy spaces or multi-tenancy spaces to single tenancy space. Our investment in redevelopment projects generally range from $75-150 per square foot depending on the nature of the existing building improvement and office/laboratory design.  Development projects consist of the ground-up development of generic office/laboratory facilities. We also have certain significant value add projects undergoing important and substantial preconstruction activities to bring these assets to their intended use. These critical activities add significant value for future ground-up development (which are projected to yield substantial revenues) and are required for the ultimate vertical construction of buildings.

Our significant value add projects include preconstruction activities at certain land parcels including: a) approximately 2.5 million developable square feet in San Francisco, including approximately 2.3 million developable square feet at Mission Bay, b) approximately 2.0 million developable square feet in Eastern Massachusetts, including approximately 1.7 million developable square feet located along Binney Street in Kendall Square and c) approximately 1.3 million developable square feet located in other key life science cluster markets.

San Francisco Bay – Mission Bay and South San Francisco Value Add Preconstruction Activities

The value add preconstruction activities in Mission Bay and South San Francisco will create high quality space in state-of-the-art environmentally sustainable facilities for our clients generating net operating income for the Company.  The entitlement process includes a multitude of activities necessary for the vertical construction of these high quality facilities including, among other items, regulatory approval, mapping, conceptual design, schematic design, design development, permitting, construction drawings and estimating. Our value add projects in Mission Bay and South San Francisco, that have been completed or are now under construction, have attracted Merck & Co., Inc., Celgene Corporation, Pfizer Inc., Roche Holdings Ltd and University of California, San Francisco.

The ability to provide significant additional space in high quality state-of-the-art environmentally sustainable facilities at Mission Bay is a unique opportunity to enhance our current high quality client tenant roster.  In addition to the opportunities located at Mission Bay, our asset base contains a broad pipeline of opportunities located in South San Francisco.  This includes, among others, a high quality facility with entitlements completed or in process totaling over 275,000 square feet and a four building campus totaling an additional 405,000 square feet located nearby existing well established and emerging life science companies in South San Francisco.

The Alexandria Center for Science and Technology at Mission Bay (“The Alexandria Center”) when completed will consist of 13 high quality facilities totaling approximately 2.7 million rentable square feet.  The Alexandria Center is organized into four discrete but highly interactive and collaborative campuses: the north campus which includes the 455 Mission Bay Boulevard project leased to Pfizer Inc.; the east campus, featuring the ability to accommodate a corporate headquarters facility of more than one million square feet; the south campus which is directly across the street from the UCSF hospital complex and likely to become an important location for physicians, clinicians and translational researchers; and the west campus which features a wide range of unique life science client tenant spaces.

San Francisco Bay – Mission Bay and South San Francisco Value Add Preconstruction Activities (continued)

At the heart of Mission Bay is UCSF, one of the nation’s top generators of life science commercial enterprises and the number two recipient of grants from the National Institutes of Health.  At least 75 California life science companies, including two of the largest, Genentech, Inc. (now a subsidiary of Roche) and Chiron Corporation (now a subsidiary of Novartis AG), have been successfully launched by UCSF faculty or alumni.  UCSF’s expansion of major research functions to its Mission Bay campus serves as a hub for basic scientific inquiry and a meeting place for academics from around the world.  The wide range of UCSF’s sophisticated laboratories include the Center for Advanced Technology, as well as significant efforts in structural and chemical biology, molecular, cell and developmental biology, advanced microscopy, neurology and cardiology.  Finally, the UCSF Mission Bay hospital campus is in the design phase, and will initially offer 280 beds in an integrated facility to serve women, children and cancer patients. The overriding emphasis of this array of diverse life science entities is to translate research discoveries into viable commercial products to solve critical unmet medical needs.

Eastern Massachusetts Value Add Preconstruction Activities

The largest ongoing value add project in Eastern Massachusetts is located on multiple sites along Binney Street in Kendall Square.  Located in the eastern part of Cambridge close to downtown Boston, the Kendall Square neighborhood abuts the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (“MIT”) campus and is a short subway or bike ride from Harvard University (“Harvard”).  MIT and Harvard are two of the leading universities for life science and technology research, each with a long and successful history of translational collaborations between academic scientists and industry.  Working with local venture capitalists and experienced entrepreneurs, the universities have created leading biotech companies such as Genzyme Corporation and Biogen Idec and well over a hundred smaller life science firms in Cambridge alone.  This fertile science and technology ecosystem has subsequently attracted investment by leading international pharmaceutical companies such as Novartis and GlaxoSmithKline, and has led to the creation of important new independent research organizations in Cambridge, such as the Broad Institute and the Whitehead Institute for Biomedical Research.

In February 2009, the Cambridge City Council approved our petition to significantly increase the zoning density on our Binney Street holdings, enabling the future development of up to 1.7 million rentable square feet of office/laboratory space on multiple adjacent sites.  These sites currently hold income-producing low-rise buildings and surface parking lots, which, we believe, will eventually be replaced by high quality life science facilities in this desirable, land-constrained location.  We will continue to advance our entitlement efforts for this assemblage, including the procurement of a Planned Unit Development Special Permit under the City’s Zoning Ordinance.

Immediately adjacent to the Binney Street sites, we will transition from design into construction for the conversion into office/laboratory space of an approximately 85,000 rentable square foot portion of an existing office building known as Athenaeum Center.  The balance of the approximately 366,000 rentable square foot office building is substantially leased.  Delivery of the office/laboratory conversion space is scheduled to occur over the next one to two years.

Eastern Massachusetts Value Add Preconstruction Activities (continued)

Elsewhere in the Eastern Massachusetts region, design activities are ongoing at Longwood Center, our approximately 350,000 rentable square foot life science development located on a 1.0 acre parcel in the heart of Boston’s Longwood Medical Area (“LMA”).  This project, partnered with a local development/investment group, has been entitled under the City of Boston’s site plan review process.  The LMA is a compact and vibrant district which is home to world-renowned medical and academic institutions such as Harvard Medical School, Brigham & Womens’ Hospital, Dana Farber Cancer Institute, Childrens’ Hospital Boston, Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, and Joslin Diabetes Center, among several others.  Fully entitled land sites are extremely scarce in the LMA and we believe that Longwood Center is well-positioned to accommodate expected growth within the district.

Among the completed value add projects in this region is the conversion of an approximately 175,000 square foot office building at Technology Square in Cambridge to office/laboratory use.  This space has been substantially leased to Sirtris Pharmaceuticals, a GlaxoSmithKline company, the Novartis Institutes of Biomedical Research and a unit of Pfizer Inc.  Another suburban building conversion resulted in a 59,000 square foot lease to a research division of Johnson & Johnson.

New Markets and Other Projects

A component of our business model also includes ground-up development projects in new markets and other unique projects.  We have two development parcels in China. One development parcel is located in South China where a two-building project aggregating approximately 275,000 rentable square feet is under construction. This project is nearing shell completion.  The second development parcel is located in North China where a two-building project aggregating approximately 272,000 rentable square feet is under construction.

Additionally, other projects include construction related to site work, plaza, park and underground parking at the Alexandria CenterTM for Life Science – New York City, a unique one-of-a-kind highly advanced state-of-the-art urban science park in the city and in the adjoining future building approximating 410,000 rentable square feet.

This section contains additional information for sections throughout this supplemental information package as well as explanations of certain non-GAAP financial measures in sections of this document and the reasons why management believes these measures provide useful information to investors about our financial condition, results of operations or liquidity.  Additional detail can be found in our most recent annual report on Form 10-K and subsequent quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, as well as other documents filed with or furnished to the SEC from time to time.

Adjusted Funds from Operations

Adjusted Funds from Operations (“AFFO”) is a non-GAAP financial measure we believe is a useful supplemental measure of our performance.  We compute AFFO attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders by adding to or deducting from FFO attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders (i) recurring and non-recurring capital expenditures required to maintain and re-tenant our properties, (ii) second generation tenant improvements and leasing costs on re-tenanted and renewal space (excludes redevelopment expenditures), (iii) capitalized income from development projects, (iv) gain on early extinguishment of debt, (v) amortization of loan fees, debt premiums/discounts and acquired above and below market leases, (vi) effects of deferred rent and deferred rent on ground leases, (vii) non-cash compensation expense related to restricted stock awards and (viii) other non-cash income or charges, including impairment charges.  AFFO is not intended to represent cash flow for the period, and is only intended to provide an additional measure of performance by adjusting the effect of certain items noted above included in FFO, as well as recurring capital expenditures and leasing costs.  We believe that net income attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders is the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure to AFFO attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders.  We also believe that AFFO attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders provides useful performance information to the investment community about our financial position as compared to other REITs since AFFO is a widely reported measure used by other REITs.  However, other REITs may use different methodologies for calculating AFFO and, accordingly, our AFFO may not be comparable to other REITs.

Capitalized interest

A key component of our business model is our value add redevelopment and development programs.  These programs are focused on providing high quality generic office/laboratory space to meet the real estate requirements and are reusable by various life science industry tenants.  Upon completion, each value add project is expected to generate significant revenues and cash flows.  Our redevelopment and development projects are generally in locations highly desirable by life science entities which we believe results in higher occupancy levels, longer lease terms and higher rental income and returns.  Redevelopment projects consist of the permanent change in use of office, warehouse and shell space into generic office/laboratory space, including the conversion of single tenancy space to multi-tenancy spaces or multi-tenancy spaces to single tenancy space. Development projects consist of the ground-up development of generic office/laboratory facilities. We also have certain significant value add projects undergoing important and substantial preconstruction activities to bring these assets to their intended use. These critical activities add significant value for future ground-up development and are required for the ultimate vertical construction of buildings. Ultimately, these land parcels will provide valuable opportunities for new ground-up construction projects. The projects will provide high quality facilities for the life science industry and will generate significant revenue and cash flows for the Company. We are required to capitalize construction and preconstruction costs directly related and essential to the construction of a project while activities are ongoing to prepare an asset for its intended use.  Capitalized interest assuming conversion of our 8% unsecured convertible notes for the three months ended December 31, 2009 was approximately $19.0 million. The interest rate required for the purpose of calculating capitalization of interest was approximately 5.42% for the three months ended December 31, 2009 assuming conversion of our 8% unsecured convertible notes.

Debt to Adjusted EBITDA

Debt to Adjusted EBITDA is the ratio of net debt (secured notes payable, unsecured line of credit, unsecured term loan and unsecured convertible notes less cash, cash equivalents and escrowed cash related to construction projects) to Adjusted EBITDA.  Debt to Adjusted EBITDA is a common used measure of leverage.  However, since this ratio is derived from Adjusted EIBTDA, its usefulness is limited by the same factors that limit the usefulness of Adjusted EBITDA.  Further, our computation of Debt to Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similar ratios reported by other companies.

Debt to Gross Assets

Debt to gross assets is the ratio of net debt (secured notes payable, unsecured line of credit, unsecured term loan and unsecured convertible notes less cash, cash equivalents and escrowed cash related to construction projects) to gross assets.  Gross assets is equal to total assets plus accumulated depreciation less cash, cash equivalents and escrowed cash related to construction projects.

Dividend Payout Ratio

Dividend payout ratio (common stock) is the ratio of the absolute dollar amount of dividends on our common stock (shares of common stock outstanding on the respective record date multiplied by the related dividend per share) to FFO attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders on a diluted basis.  Historical amounts include the retrospective impact of new accounting provisions adopted on January 1, 2009 related to accounting for and disclosure of convertible debt, noncontrolling interests and participating securities.

Earnings per Share

We account for unvested restricted stock awards which contain nonforfeitable rights to dividends as participating securities and include these securities in the computation of earnings per share using the two-class method.  Under the two-class method, we allocate net income after preferred stock dividends and amounts attributable to noncontrolling interests to common stockholders and unvested restricted stock awards based on their respective participation rights to dividends declared (or accumulated) and undistributed earnings.  Diluted earnings per share is computed using the weighted average shares of common stock outstanding determined for the basic earnings per share computation plus the effect of any dilutive securities, including the dilutive effect of stock options using the treasury stock method.

We applied the “if-converted” method for our 8% unsecured senior convertible notes (“8% Unsecured Convertible Notes”).  In applying the “if-converted” method, conversion is assumed for purposes of calculating diluted earnings per share if the effect would be dilutive to earnings per share.  A separate calculation is performed for FFO per share.  If the assumed conversion pursuant to the “if-converted” method is dilutive, diluted earnings per share would be calculated by adding back interest charges applicable to our 8% Unsecured Convertible Notes to the numerator and our 8% Unsecured Convertible Notes would be assumed to have been converted at the beginning of the period presented (if outstanding for the entire period) and the resulting incremental shares associated with the assumed conversion would be included in the denominator.  For purposes of calculating diluted earnings per share, the “if-converted method was dilutive to diluted earnings per share only for the three months ended June 30, 2009.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA

EBITDA represents earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”), a non-GAAP financial measure, and is used as a supplemental measure of operating performance.  Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as EBITDA excluding impairments, gains or losses from sales of real estate, gains or losses on early extinguishment of debt and net stock compensation expenses.  We use EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental measure of our operating performance.  We consider Adjusted EBITDA to provide investors relevant and useful information because it permits investors to view income from our operations on an unleveraged basis before the effects of taxes, non-cash depreciation and amortization, impairments, gains or losses from sales of real estate, gains or losses on early extinguishment of debt and net stock compensation expenses.  By excluding interest expense, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA allow investors to measure our operating performance independent of our capital structure and indebtedness and, therefore, allow for a more meaningful comparison of our operating performance to that of other companies, both in the real estate industry and in other industries.  We believe investors should consider EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, in conjunction with net income (the primary measure of our performance) and the other required United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) measures of our performance, to improve their understanding of our operating results, and to make more meaningful comparisons of our performance between periods and as against other companies.  EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA have limitations as analytical tools and should be used in conjunction with our required GAAP presentations. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect our historical cash expenditures or future cash requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments.  While EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are relevant and widely used measures of operating performance, it does not represent net income or cash flow from operations as defined by GAAP and it should not be considered as an alternative to those indicators in evaluating operating performance or liquidity.  Further, our computation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similar measures reported by other companies.

The following table reconciles net income to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA (in thousands):

Funds from Operations

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 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.

Same Property Comparisons

The summary of same property comparisons 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 “2009 Same Properties”).  Same property occupancy for the quarters ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 was 94.1% and 95.7%, respectively.  Same Property Occupancy for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 was 95.1% and 95.6%, respectively. Properties undergoing redevelopment are excluded from same property results.

Revenue less operating expenses computed in accordance with GAAP is total revenue associated with the Fourth Quarter Same Properties and 2009 Same Properties, as applicable (excluding lease termination fees, if any), less property operating expenses.  Under GAAP, rental revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the respective lease terms.  Revenue less operating expenses on a cash basis is total revenue associated with the Fourth Quarter Same Properties and 2009 Same Properties (excluding lease termination fees, if any), less property operating expenses, adjusted to exclude the effect of straight-line rent adjustments required by GAAP.  Straight-line rent adjustments for the quarters ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 for the Fourth Quarter Same Properties were $1,748,000 and $1,851,000, respectively.  Straight-line rent adjustments for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 for the 2009 Same Properties were $5,153,000 and $9,882,000, respectively.  We believe that revenue less operating expenses on a cash basis is helpful to investors as an additional measure of operating performance because it eliminates straight-line rent adjustments to rental revenue.

Fees received from tenants in connection with termination of their leases, if any, are excluded from revenue in the Summary of Same Property Comparisons. As of December 31, 2009, approximately 88% 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, approximately 8% of our leases (on a rentable square footage basis) required the tenants to pay a majority of operating expenses.
