Funds from Operations, which is not a defined term within Canadian generally accepted accounting principles, has been calculated by management, using Canadian generally accepted accounting principles, in accordance with REALPac's White Paper on Funds from Operations. The White Paper defines Funds from Operations as net income adjusted for depreciation and amortization of assets purchased, including the net impact of above and below market leases, amortization of leasing costs and accretion of convertible debentures. Funds from Operations may not be comparable to similar measures used by other entities.
