EXHIBIT A
ITEM 5. OWNERSHIP.
Teachers Insurance and Annuity Association of America ("TIAA") presently holds
404,800 shares of Issuer's common stock for the benefit of TIAA Real Estate
Account, a separate account of TIAA. In addition, TIAA, as the parent of two
registered investment advisers, may be deemed to have indirect voting or
investment discretion over 347,721 shares of Issuer's common stock that are
beneficially owned by five registered investment companies--College Retirement
Equities Fund ("CREF"), TIAA-CREF Institutional Mutual Funds ("Institutional
Funds"), TIAA-CREF Mutual Funds ("Mutual Funds"), TIAA-CREF Life Funds ("Life
Funds") and TIAA Separate Account VA-1 ("VA-1"), as well as the TIAA-CREF Asset
Management Commingled Funds Trust I ("TCAM Funds")--whose investment advisers
are TIAA-CREF Investment Management, LLC (in the case of CREF) and Teachers
Advisors, Inc. (in the case of Institutional Funds, Mutual Funds, Life Funds,
VA-1 and TCAM Funds), both of which are wholly owned subsidiaries of TIAA. TIAA
is reporting the combined holdings of these entities for the purpose of
administrative convenience. These shares were acquired in the ordinary course of
business, and not with the purpose or effect of changing or influencing control
of the Issuer. The filing of this statement should not be construed as an
admission that TIAA is, for the purposes of Sections 13 or 16 of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, the beneficial owner of these shares.
