1.

Description of business:

		Capital Properties, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Tri-State Displays, Inc., Capital Terminal Company and Dunellen, LLC (collectively referred to as “the Company”), operate in two segments, leasing and petroleum storage.
		The leasing segment consists of the long-term leasing of certain of its real estate interests in downtown Providence, Rhode Island (upon the commencement of which the tenants are required to construct buildings thereon, with the exception of a parking garage), the leasing of a portion of its building (“Steeple Street Building”) under short-term leasing arrangements and the leasing of locations along interstate and primary highways in Rhode Island and Massachusetts to Lamar Outdoor Advertising, LLC (“Lamar”) which has constructed outdoor advertising boards thereon. The Company anticipates that the future development of its remaining properties in and adjacent to the Capital Center area will consist primarily of long-term ground leases. Pending this development, the Company leases these parcels for public parking under short-term leasing arrangements to Metropark, Ltd. (“Metropark”).
		The petroleum storage segment consists of operating the petroleum storage terminal (the “Terminal”) and the Wilkesbarre Pier (the “Pier”), both of which are owned by the Company and are collectively referred to as the “Facility,” located in East Providence, Rhode Island, for Global Companies, LLC (“Global”) which stores and distributes petroleum products.
		The principal difference between the two segments relates to the nature of the operations. In the leasing segment, the tenants under long-term land leases incur substantially all of the development and operating costs of the assets constructed on the Company’s land, including the payment of real property taxes on both the land and any improvements constructed thereon; whereas the Company is responsible for the operating and maintenance expenditures, including a portion of the real property taxes, as well as certain capital improvements at the Facility.

2.

Principles of consolidation and basis of presentation:

		The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts and transactions of the Company and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
		The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2010, has been derived from audited financial statements and the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information not misleading. It is suggested that these condensed financial statements be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s latest Form 10-K. In the opinion of management, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position as of September 30, 2011 and the results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, and cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010.
		The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.
		Environmental incidents:
		The Company accrues a liability when an environmental incident has occurred and the costs are estimable. The Company charges to expense those costs that do not extend the life, increase the capacity or improve the safety or efficiency of the property owned or used by the Company. The Company does not record a receivable for recoveries from third parties for environmental matters until it has determined that the amount of the collection is reasonably assured.

		New accounting standards:
		The Company reviews new accounting standards as issued. Although some of these accounting standards may be applicable to the Company, the Company has not identified any standards that it believes merit further discussion. The Company expects that none of the new standards would have a significant impact on its consolidated financial statements.

3.

Use of estimates:

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. Estimates also affect the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Note payable:

		In April 2010, the Company borrowed $6,000,000 from a bank. The loan bears interest at an annual rate of 6 percent and has a term of ten years with repayments on a twenty-year amortization schedule (monthly principal payments of $25,000 plus interest). The loan matures in April 2020 and contains the customary covenants, terms and conditions and permits prepayment, in whole or in part, at any time without penalty if the prepayment is made from internally generated funds. As collateral for the loan, the Company granted the bank a mortgage on Parcels 3S and 5 in the Capital Center.
		In May 2010, the proceeds from the loan were used principally to fund a special dividend of $5,478,000 to shareholders, which represented the Company’s earnings and profits as calculated for federal income tax purposes at December 31, 2009.
		In connection with the borrowing, the Company incurred financing fees totaling $55,000, which are being amortized on a straight-line method over the 10-year term of the note (which approximates the effective interest rate method) and are included in interest expense on the accompanying consolidated statements of income and retained earnings for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010.
		In June 2011, the Company made a $1,000,000 principal prepayment.

6.

Description of leasing arrangements:

		Long-term land leases:
		As of September 30, 2011, the Company had entered into six long-term land leases for six separate parcels upon which the improvements have been completed (“developed parcels”). In addition, in 2005 a long-term land lease commenced on an undeveloped parcel on which two residential buildings was planned. One building was completed in September 2009. The other building has not progressed beyond the early stages of site preparation and the timing of its construction and completion is uncertain.
		Under the seven land leases, the tenants are required to negotiate any tax stabilization treaties or other arrangements, appeal any changes in real property assessments, and pay real property taxes assessed on land and improvements under these arrangements. Accordingly, real property taxes payable by the tenants are excluded from leasing revenues and leasing expenses on the accompanying consolidated statements of income and retained earnings. The estimated real property taxes attributable to the Company’s land under these leases totaled $349,000 and $935,000, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, and $378,000 and $878,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010.
		Under the lease which commenced in 2005, the tenant is entitled to a credit for future rents equal to a portion of the real property taxes paid by the tenant through April 2007. In connection with Phase I of the tenant’s project, commencing July 1, 2010, the annual rent increased from $48,000 to $300,000. As a result of the rent credit, the tenant will not be required to make cash payments for rent until April 2012. Commencing July 1, 2010, the Company reclassifies each month $25,000 of deferred leasing revenues to leasing revenues. At September 30, 2011, the remaining credit is $145,000.
		Short-term leases:
		The Company leases the undeveloped parcels of land in or adjacent to the Capital Center area for public parking purposes to Metropark, Ltd. under a short-term cancellable lease.
		A former tenant of the Steeple Street Building filed for receivership in November 2009. At December 31, 2009, the former tenant owed the Company $40,000 and the Company recorded an allowance for doubtful accounts of $40,000. At March 31, 2010, the former tenant owed the Company an additional $22,000 and the Company recorded an allowance for doubtful accounts for the additional amount. In June 2010, the former tenant sold its operations to a new tenant who assumed the existing lease and paid the Company in full; the Company reversed the allowance for doubtful accounts for the full amount.
		At September 30, 2011, the Company has three tenants occupying 56 percent of the Steeple Street Building (including the new tenant who assumed the existing lease) under short-term leases (five years or less) at a current annual rental of $113,000. The Company is currently marketing the remaining portions of the building for lease.

Petroleum storage facility and environmental incidents:

		Pipeline rupture (2011):
		On August 31, 2011, while excavating in connection with the construction of a highway for the Rhode Island Department of Transportation (RIDOT), Cardi Corporation (Cardi) ruptured an underground pipeline controlled and used by the Company for the transportation of Ultra Low Sulfur Diesel (ULSD) from the Wilkesbarre Pier to its Petroleum Storage Facility. At the time, the Company was receiving product from a barge and, as a result of the rupture, approximately 70,000 gallons of ULSD were discharged. Pursuant to the Company’s Emergency Response Plan, representatives of the Company took control of the spill site and coordinated the response of various governmental agencies as well as private contractors. Approximately 56,000 gallons of spilled diesel were recovered. On September 6, 2011, the Company turned over the responsibility for the clean-up to Cardi.
		The Company notified the required government agencies and its insurance carriers of the rupture.
		Management’s present estimate of the total cost incurred by the Company in responding to the emergency and repairing the pipeline is $355,000, which has been presented as a separate line item within petroleum storage facility expenses on the accompanying consolidated statements of income and retained earnings for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011. The Company believes that it has no liability with respect to the discharge and has asserted a claim against Cardi and RIDOT for the costs and other damages incurred by the Company. However, the Company has determined that no receivable can be recorded at this time.

		ULSD incident (2011):
		In March 2011, management learned that, during the normal receipt of product from a barge, No. 2 heating oil (high sulfur heating oil) was accidentally pumped into one of the Company’s ULSD petroleum storage tanks (Tank 67), resulting in a mixture with a sulfur content in excess of that allowed by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The Company notified Global of the incident.
		Global informed the Company that it had contacted its customers that received the mixture and commenced a sampling and testing program with certain of its customers to determine (1) if any product should be removed and replaced with conforming product or (2) if the product need only be treated to meet the EPA requirements. On August 21, 2011, Global asserted a claim against the Company of $132,000 for damages incurred by Global arising out of the incident, which is included in petroleum storage facility operating expenses on the accompanying consolidated statements of income and retained earnings for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011.
		The Company has notified its insurance carriers of the incident. The Company’s deductibles under its primary insurance policy and its umbrella policy are $1,000 and $10,000, respectively. To date, the Company has not received any response to its notifications. Accordingly, the Company has determined that no receivable can be recorded at this time.
		Environmental incident (2010):
		On August 30, 2010, during a regular facility inspection of the Terminal, a release of petroleum-contaminated water was discovered from the tank bottom of one of the Company’s 150,000 barrel tanks (Tank 153). The Company notified the Rhode Island Department of Environmental Management (RIDEM), the EPA and the United States Coast Guard. It also notified its insurance carriers of the release and the damage to the tank.
		The tank was emptied of product and the cleaning of the tank bottom was completed in September 2010. The petroleum-contaminated water released from the tank was contained on the secondary containment liner under the tank bottom, preventing contamination of the groundwater. The Company engaged an outside engineering firm to inspect the tank bottom to determine the cause and location of the release, as well as the extent of the required repairs. The findings of the inspection indicated that aggressive corrosion from inside the tank occurred, causing two holes in the immediate vicinity of the observed release, as well as several other holes or potential holes in other areas of the tank bottom. The report indicated that the corrosion was caused by microbial contamination, which was affirmed by a corrosion specialist.
		The total cost of the cleanup, inspection and repair of the tank was $533,000, all of which was recorded as an expense at December 31, 2010. The tank was placed back in service in February 2011. In June 2011, Global paid the Company $458,000 which is recorded in petroleum storage facility revenues, reimbursement of tank repairs on the accompanying consolidated statements of income and retained earnings for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 due to the contractual nature of the reimbursement. The difference relates to the $75,000 cost of epoxy coating the bottom of Tank 153 which the Company paid.
		The testing of certain of the Company’s other tanks revealed the presence of corrosive microbial contaminants in Tanks 151 and 32. Both tanks were treated with a biocide and continue to be monitored and treated as necessary. Since Tank 32 had been inspected in June 2010, the Company believes that the contaminants have not affected the integrity of this tank bottom. However, since Tank 151 had not been inspected since construction in 2006, the Company took this tank out of service in February 2011. The tank was emptied of product, and an inspection of the tank bottom revealed minor corrosion. The Company completed the repairs recommended by the inspectors and applied an epoxy coating to the bottom of Tank 151 at a cost of $50,000, which has been included in petroleum storage facility expenses, operating on the accompanying consolidated statement of income and retained earnings for the nine months ended September 30, 2011. The tank was back in service in May 2011. Exclusive of the epoxy coating, the total cost of cleanup, inspection and repair of Tank 151 was $37,000 which Global paid the Company in September 2011 and is recorded in petroleum storage facility revenues, reimbursement of tank repairs on the accompanying consolidated statements of income and retained earnings for nine months ended September 30, 2011.
		Tank repairs related to this environmental incident have been presented as a separate line item within petroleum storage facility expenses on the accompanying consolidated statements of income and retained earnings. Routine tank repairs continue to be included with petroleum storage facility operating expenses on the accompanying consolidated statements of income and retained earnings.

		Environmental incident (2002):
		In 2002, during testing of monitoring wells at the Terminal, the Company’s consulting engineer discovered free floating phase product in a groundwater monitoring well located on that portion of the Terminal purchased in 2000. Laboratory analysis indicated that the product was gasoline, which is not a product the Company ever stored at the Terminal. The Company commenced an environmental investigation and analysis, the results of which indicate that the gasoline did not come from the Terminal. The Company notified RIDEM. RIDEM subsequently identified Power Test Realty Partnership (Power Test), the owner of an adjacent parcel, as a potentially responsible party for the contamination. Getty Properties Corp. is the general partner of Power Test. Power Test challenged that determination and, after an administrative hearing, on October 20, 2008, a RIDEM Hearing Officer determined that Power Test is responsible for the discharge of the petroleum product under the Rhode Island Oil Pollution Control Act, R.I.G.L. Section 46-12.5.1-3 and Rule 6(a) and 12(b) of the Oil Pollution Control Regulations. The RIDEM Decision and Order requires Power Test to remediate the contamination as directed by RIDEM and remanded the proposed penalty to RIDEM for recalculation. In November 2008, Power Test appealed the decision to the Rhode Island Superior Court. In addition, in November 2008, Power Test sought, and received, a stay of the Decision and Order of the Hearing Officer pending a clarification by RIDEM of the amount of the proposed penalty. On October 2, 2009, RIDEM issued a recalculated administrative penalty, and, subsequently, the RIDEM Hearing Officer issued a recommended amended decision, which was affirmed as a final decision by the RIDEM Director on December 23, 2009. On January 20, 2010, Power Test appealed that decision to Superior Court. On September 1, 2011, the Superior Court affirmed the decision of the RIDEM Director.
		In April 2009, the Company sued Power Test and Getty Properties Corp. in the Rhode Island Superior Court seeking remediation of the site or, in the alternative, the cost of the remediation. On May 1, 2009, Power Test and Getty Properties Corp. removed the action to the United States District Court for the District of Rhode Island. On May 22, 2009, Power Test and Getty Properties Corp. answered the Complaint and filed a Counterclaim against Dunellen, LLC and Capital Terminal Company alleging that Dunellen, LLC and Capital Terminal Company are responsible for the contamination. Getty Properties Corp. and Power Test have joined Getty Petroleum Marketing, Inc., the tenant under a long-term lease with Getty Properties Corp. of the adjacent property, as a defendant. The Company has amended its Complaint to add Getty Petroleum Marketing, Inc. as a defendant.
		The parties are now engaged in discovery. There can be no assurance that the Company will prevail in this litigation.
		Since January 2003, the Company has not incurred significant costs in connection with this matter, other than ongoing litigation costs, and is unable to determine the costs it might incur to remedy the situation, as well as any costs to investigate, defend and seek reimbursement from the responsible party with respect to this contamination.
		Environmental remediation (1994):
		In 1994, a leak was discovered in a 25,000 barrel storage tank at the Terminal which allowed the escape of a small amount of fuel oil. All required notices were made to RIDEM. In 2000, the tank was demolished and testing of the groundwater indicated that there was no large pooling of contaminants. In 2001, RIDEM approved a plan pursuant to which the Company installed a passive system consisting of three wells and commenced monitoring the wells.
		In 2003, RIDEM decided that the passive monitoring system previously approved was not sufficient and required the Company to design an active remediation system for the removal of product from the contaminated site. The Company and its consulting engineers began the pre-design testing of the site in the fourth quarter of 2004. The consulting engineers estimated a total cost of $200,000 to design, install and operate the system, which was accrued in 2004. Through 2006, the Company had expended $119,000 and has not incurred any additional costs since then. In May 2011, RIDEM accepted the Site Investigation Report as amended which the Company had submitted in 2005. RIDEM has instructed the Company to serve notification to all abutters and to review and update the preliminary data and the draft Remedial Action Work Plan for final submission. While the Company and its consulting engineers believe that the proposed active remediation system will correct the situation, it is possible that, upon completion of its review, RIDEM could require the Company to expand remediation efforts, which could result in the Company incurring additional costs in excess of the remaining accrual of $81,000.

Income taxes:

Deferred income taxes are recorded based upon differences between financial statement and tax basis amounts of assets and liabilities. The tax effects of temporary differences which give rise to deferred tax assets and liabilities were as follows:

		September 30,				December 31,
		2011				2010
Gross deferred tax liabilities:
Property having a financial statement basis in excess of tax basis		$	5,700,000			$	5,779,000
Insurance premiums, accrued leasing revenues and property taxes			52,000				82,000
			5,752,000				5,861,000
Gross deferred tax assets			(174,000	)			(309,000	)
		$	5,578,000			$	5,552,000

The income tax provision for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010, did not bear the customary relationship between income tax expense and pretax accounting income. The Company had determined that certain expenditures in connection with the historic restoration of the Steeple Street Building qualified for federal historic income tax credits in 2010 of approximately $500,000 and incorporated the credit in determining an effective tax rate of 30 percent for 2010. The actual effective tax rate for the year ended December 31, 2010 was 21 percent as a result of income lower than projected and the historic federal income tax credit being higher than projected.

9.

Shareholders’ Equity:

The Company’s Class B Common Stock is convertible by the record owner thereof into the same number of shares of Class A Common Stock at any time. For the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, the number of shares converted was 14,510 shares and 72,985 shares, respectively.

Fair value of financial instruments:

The carrying value of cash, receivables, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate the fair value due to the immediate or short-term maturity of these financial instruments. The fair value of the note payable was determined using borrowing rates currently available to the Company for loans with similar terms and maturities and approximates its carrying value.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

Certain portions of this report, and particularly the Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Sections 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Sections 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, which represent the Company’s expectations or beliefs concerning future events. The Company cautions that these statements are further qualified by important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements, including, without limitation, the following: the ability of the Company to generate adequate amounts of cash; the collectibility of the accrued leasing revenues when due over the terms of the long-term land leases; the commencement of additional long-term land leases; changes in economic conditions that may affect either the current or future development on the Company’s parcels; and exposure to contamination, remediation or similar costs associated with the operation of the petroleum storage facility. The Company does not undertake the obligation to update forward-looking statements in response to new information, future events or otherwise.

1.

Overview:

		Critical accounting policies:
		The Company believes that its revenue recognition policy for long-term leases with scheduled rent increases (leasing segment) meets the definition of a critical accounting policy which is discussed in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010. There have been no changes to the application of this accounting policy since December 31, 2010.
		Segments:
		The Company operates in two segments, leasing and petroleum storage.
		The leasing segment consists of the long-term leasing of certain of its real estate interests in downtown Providence, Rhode Island (upon the commencement of which the tenants are required to construct buildings thereon, with the exception of a parking garage), the leasing of a portion of the Steeple Street Building under short-term leasing arrangements and the leasing of locations along interstate and primary highways in Rhode Island and Massachusetts to Lamar Outdoor Advertising, LLC (“Lamar”)which has constructed outdoor advertising boards thereon. The Company anticipates that the future development of its remaining properties in and adjacent to the Capital Center area will consist primarily of long-term ground leases. Pending this development, the Company leases these parcels for public parking under short-term leasing arrangements to Metropark.
		The petroleum storage segment consists of operating the Facility located in East Providence, Rhode Island, for Global Companies, LLC (“Global”).
		The principal difference between the two segments relates to the nature of the operations. In the leasing segment, the tenants under the long-term land leases incur substantially all of the development and operating costs of the assets constructed on the Company’s land, including the payment of real property taxes on both the land and any improvements constructed thereon; whereas the Company is responsible for the operating and maintenance expenditures, including a portion of the real property taxes, as well as certain capital improvements at the Facility.

Results of operations:

		Three months ended September 30, 2011 compared to three months ended September 30, 2010:
		Leasing segment:

		2011				2010				Difference
Leasing revenues		$	998,000			$	839,000			$	159,000
Leasing expense			323,000				255,000			$	68,000
		$	675,000			$	584,000

		Leasing revenue increased due to scheduled increases in rentals under long-term land leases. Leasing expense increased principally due to an increase in professional fees and an increase in operating costs and depreciation associated with the Steeple Street building, offset in part by a decrease in payroll due to the termination of one employee in 2010.
		Petroleum storage segment:

		2011				2010				Difference
Petroleum storage facility revenues		$	969,000			$	976,000			$	(7,000	)
Petroleum storage facility expense			1,090,000				873,000			$	217,000
		$	(121,000	)		$	103,000

		Petroleum storage facility revenues remained at the 2010 level. Petroleum storage facility expense increased principally due to costs of $355,000 recorded in connection with a pipeline rupture in August 2011 and costs of $132,000 recorded in connection with the ultra low sulfur diesel incident in March 2011. In 2010, costs of $210,000 had been recorded in connection with the leak in a tank in August 2010.
		General:
		For the three months ended September 30, 2011, general and administrative expense increased principally due to an increase in payroll and related costs offset in part by a decrease in professional fees.
		Interest expense:
		In April 2010, the Company borrowed $6,000,000 from a bank. The loan bears interest at an annual rate of 6 percent and has a term of ten years with repayments on a twenty-year amortization schedule (monthly principal payments of $25,000 plus interest). In June 2011, the Company made a $1,000,000 principal prepayment. For the three months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, interest expense was $72,000 and $91,000, respectively. In June 2011, the Company made a $1,000,000 principal prepayment.
		Income taxes:
		The Company projects that its effective income tax rate for 2011 will approximate 40 percent.
		The income tax provision for the three months ended September 30, 2010, did not bear the customary relationship between income tax expense and pretax accounting income. At September 30, 2010, the Company had determined that certain expenditures in connection with the historic restoration of the Steeple Street Building qualified for federal historic income tax credits in 2010 of approximately $512,000 and incorporated the credit in determining an effective tax rate of 30 percent for 2010. The actual effective tax rate for the year ended December 31, 2010 was 21 percent as a result of income lower than projected and the historic federal income tax credit being higher than projected.
		Nine months ended September 30, 2011 compared to nine months ended September 30, 2010:
		Leasing segment:

		2011				2010				Difference
Leasing revenues		$	2,867,000			$	2,329,000			$	538,000
Leasing expense			822,000				819,000			$	3,000
		$	2,045,000			$	1,510,000

		Leasing revenue increased due to scheduled increased in rentals under long-term land leases. Leasing expense remained at the 2010 level. However, decreases in legal fees in connection with two leases and the termination of one employee in 2010 were offset by an increase in operating costs and depreciation associated with the Steeple Street building and the reversal of an allowance for doubtful accounts in 2010.
		Petroleum storage segment:

		2011				2010				Difference
Petroleum storage facility revenues		$	3,376,000			$	2,865,000			$	511,000
Petroleum storage facility expense			2,283,000				2,004,000			$	279,000
		$	1,093,000			$	861,000

		Petroleum storage facility revenues increased principally due to Global’s reimbursement of certain costs associated with the cleanup, inspection and repair of Tank 153 totaling $458,000, which were recorded in 2010. Petroleum storage facility expense increased principally due to costs of $355,000 recorded in connection with a pipeline rupture in August 2011 and costs of $132,000 recorded in connection with the ultra low sulfur diesel incident in March 2011. In 2010, costs of $210,000 had been recorded in connection with the leak in a tank in August 2010.
		General:
		For the nine months ended September 30, 2011, general and administrative expense remained at the 2010 level.
		Interest expense:
		In April 2010, the Company borrowed $6,000,000 from a bank. The loan bears interest at the rate of 6 percent per annum and has a term of ten years with repayments on a twenty-year amortization schedule (monthly principal payments of $25,000 plus interest). In June 2011, the Company made a $1,000,000 principal prepayment. For the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, interest expense was $245,000 and $155,000, respectively.
		Income taxes:
		The Company projects that its effective income tax rate for 2011 will approximate 40 percent.
		The income tax provision for the nine months ended September 30, 2010, did not bear the customary relationship between income tax expense and pretax accounting income. At September 30, 2010, the Company had determined that certain expenditures in connection with the historic restoration of the Steeple Street Building qualified for federal historic income tax credits in 2010 of approximately $512,000 and incorporated the credit in determining an effective tax rate of 30 percent for 2010. The actual effective tax rate for the year ended December 31, 2010 was 21 percent as a result of income lower than projected and the historic federal income tax credit being higher than projected.

3.

Liquidity and capital resources:

		Historically, the Company has had adequate liquidity to fund its operations.
		During the first nine months of 2011, the Company’s operating activities provided $2,362,000 of cash. The Company made cash payments of $1,225,000 in principal payments on the note payable (including a $1,000,000 prepayment), $517,000 for properties and equipment, and $594,000 for dividends. Cash increased $26,000 for the six months.
		Cash and cash commitments:
		At September 30, 2011, the Company had cash of $2,421,000. The Company maintains all of its cash in a non-interest bearing checking account which is fully insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.
		Under a lease which commenced in 2005, the tenant is entitled to a credit for future rents equal to a portion of the real property taxes paid by the tenant through April 2007. In connection with Phase I of the tenant’s project, commencing July 1, 2010, the annual rent increased from $48,000 to $300,000. As a result of the rent credit, the tenant will not be required to make cash payments for rent until April 2012. Commencing July 1, 2010, the Company reclassifies each month $25,000 of deferred leasing revenues to leasing revenues. At September 30, 2011, the remaining credit is $145,000.
		Under the Company’s long-term land lease on Parcel 9, on April 1, 2011, the scheduled contractual rent increased $260,000 annually. Under the Company’s long-term land lease on Parcel 2, on May 1, 2011, the scheduled contractual rent increased $384,000 annually.
		The current economic conditions have had limited impact on the Company’s results of operations to date. As none of the Company’s leases require the tenant to provide financial information, the Company has no information concerning the impact of current economic conditions on its major tenants and, therefore, cannot predict whether any tenants will request concessions.
		In 2009, the Company commenced the construction of the historic restoration and utility infrastructure of the Steeple Street Building, which was completed in December 2010 at a total cost of $3,178,000 plus tenant improvements of $191,000. The Company determined that certain expenditures qualified for federal historic tax credits in 2010 totaling $588,000. The Company utilized $427,000 of the historic tax credits to reduce its federal income tax obligations for 2010 and will recover $161,000 of taxes originally paid in 2009.

		At September 30, 2011, the Company has three tenants occupying 56 per cent of the Steeple Street Building under short-term leases (five years or less) at a current annual rental of $113,000. The Company is currently marketing the remaining portions of the building for lease.
		Under the Company’s lease with Global, the annual cost-of-living adjustment was $98,000 effective May 1, 2011.
		On August 31, 2011, while excavating in connection with the construction of a highway for the Rhode Island Department of Transportation (RIDOT), Cardi Corporation (Cardi) ruptured an underground pipeline controlled and used by the Company for the transportation of Ultra Low Sulfur Diesel (ULSD) from the Wilkesbarre Pier to its Petroleum Storage Facility. At the time, the Company was receiving product from a barge and, as a result of the rupture, approximately 70,000 gallons of ULSD were discharged. Pursuant to the Company’s Emergency Response Plan, representatives of the Company took control of the spill site and coordinated the response of various governmental agencies as well as private contractors. Approximately 56,000 gallons of spilled diesel were recovered. On September 6, 2011, the Company turned over the responsibility for the clean-up to Cardi. The Company notified the required government agencies and its insurance carriers of the rupture.
		Management’s present estimate of the total cost incurred by the Company in responding to the emergency and repairing the pipeline is $355,000. The Company believes that it has no liability with respect to the discharge and has asserted a claim against Cardi and RIDOT for the costs and other damages incurred by the Company. However, the Company has determined that no receivable can be recorded at this time.
		In March 2011, management learned that, during the normal receipt of product from a barge, No. 2 heating oil (high sulfur heating oil) was accidentally pumped into one of the Company’s ULSD petroleum storage tanks (Tank 67), resulting in a mixture with a sulfur content in excess of that allowed by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The Company notified Global of the incident.
		Global informed the Company that it had contacted its customers that received the mixture and commenced a sampling and testing program with certain of its customers to determine (1) if any product should be removed and replaced with conforming product or (2) if the product need only be treated to meet the EPA requirements. On August 21, 2011, Global asserted a claim against the Company of $132,000 for damages incurred by Global arising out of the incident, which has not yet been paid.
		The Company has notified its insurance carriers of the incident. The Company’s deductibles under its primary insurance policy and its umbrella policy are $1,000 and $10,000, respectively. To date, the Company has not received any response to its notifications. Accordingly, the Company has determined that no receivable can be recorded at this time.
		On August 30, 2010, during a regular facility inspection of the Terminal, a release of petroleum-contaminated water was discovered from the tank bottom of one of the Company’s 150,000 barrel tanks (Tank 153). The Company notified the Rhode Island Department of Environmental Management (RIDEM), the EPA and the United States Coast Guard. It also notified its insurance carriers of the release and the damage to the tank.
		The tank was emptied of product and the cleaning of the tank bottom was completed by September 2010. The petroleum-contaminated water released from the tank was contained on the secondary containment liner under the tank bottom, preventing contamination of the groundwater. The Company engaged an outside engineering firm to inspect the tank bottom to determine the cause and location of the release, as well as the extent of the required repairs. The findings of the inspection indicated that aggressive corrosion from inside the tank occurred, causing two holes in the immediate vicinity of the observed release, as well as several other holes or potential holes in other areas of the tank bottom. The report indicated that the corrosion was caused by microbial contamination, which was affirmed by a corrosion specialist.
		The total cost of the cleanup, inspection and repair of the tank was $533,000, all of which was recorded as an expense at December 31, 2010. The tank was placed back in service in February 2011. In June 2011, Global paid the Company $458,000. The difference relates to the $75,000 cost of epoxy coating the bottom of Tank 153 which the Company paid.
		The testing of certain of the Company’s other tanks revealed the presence of corrosive microbial contaminants in Tanks 151 and 32. Both tanks were treated with a biocide and continue to be monitored and treated as necessary. Since Tank 32 had been inspected in June 2010, the Company believes that the contaminants have not affected the integrity of this tank bottom. However, since Tank 151 had not been inspected since construction in 2006, the Company took this tank out of service in February 2011. The tank was emptied of product, and an inspection of the tank bottom revealed minor corrosion. The Company completed the repairs recommended by the inspectors and applied an epoxy coating to the bottom of Tank 151 at a cost of $50,000. The tank was back in service in May

		2011.Exclusive of the epoxy coating, the total cost of cleanup, inspection and repair of Tank 151 was $37,000 which Global paid the Company in September 2011.
		In June 2011, the Company prepaid $1,000,000 on its note payable, resulting in a future annual saving of $60,000 in interest expense. Any additional prepayments will depend on the Company’s level of available cash.
		On October 25, 2011, the Company declared a quarterly dividend of $198,000 ($.03 per common share) which will be paid in November 2011. The declaration of future dividends and the amount thereof will depend on the Company’s future earnings, financial factors and other events.
		The Company expects that cash generated from current operations will continue to be sufficient to meet operating expenses, debt service, ordinary capital expenditures and the current level of quarterly dividends. In the event temporary liquidity is required, the Company believes that a line of credit or other arrangements could be obtained by pledging some or all of its unencumbered assets as collateral.

Item 4.

Controls and Procedures

		As required by Rule 13a-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), the Company carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. This evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s principal executive officer and the Company’s principal financial officer. Based upon that evaluation, the principal executive officer and the principal financial officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms.
		There was no significant change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the Company’s most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. The Company continues to enhance its internal controls over financial reporting, primarily by evaluating and enhancing process and control documentation. Management discusses with and discloses these matters to the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors and the Company’s auditors.
