CONDENSED NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited)
June 30, 2010
NOTE A BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the consolidated financial statements have been omitted. The consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2009 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date, but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009 of BRE Properties, Inc. (the Company or BRE). In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments only) necessary for a fair presentation of the Companys consolidated financial statements for the interim periods presented.
The preparation of consolidated 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 dates of the consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
NOTE B STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
Stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and is recognized as expense over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period. The cost related to stock-based compensation included in the determination of consolidated net income for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 includes all awards outstanding that vested during these periods.
Stock based compensation awards under BREs plans vest over periods ranging from one to four years. At June 30, 2010, compensation cost related to unvested awards not yet recognized totaled approximately $14,000,000 and the weighted average period over which it is expected to be recognized is 3.11 years. During the six months ended June 30, 2010, 226,833 restricted shares were awarded and 268,982 restricted shares vested. During the six months ended June 30, 2010, 106,220 stock options were awarded.
NOTE C CONSOLIDATION OF VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES
Arrangements that are not controlled through voting or similar rights are reviewed under the guidance of variable interest entities VIEs. A company is required to consolidate the assets, liabilities and operations of a VIE if it is determined to be the primary beneficiary of the VIE.
In June 2009, the FASB changed the consolidation analysis for VIEs to require a qualitative analysis to determine the primary beneficiary of the VIE. The determination of the primary beneficiary of a VIE is based on whether the entity has the power to direct matters which most significantly impact the activities of the VIE and has the obligation to absorb losses, or the right to receive benefits, of the VIE which could potentially be significant to the VIE. The guidance requires an ongoing reconsideration of the primary beneficiary and also amends the events

triggering a reassessment. The new guidance was effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2010. Additional disclosures for VIEs are required, including a description about a reporting entitys involvement with VIEs, how a reporting entitys involvement with a VIE affects the reporting entitys financial statements, and significant judgments and assumptions made by the reporting entity to determine whether it must consolidate the VIE.
Under the new guidance, an entity is a VIE and subject to consolidation, if by design: a) the total equity investment at risk is not sufficient to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support provided by any parties, including equity holders or b) as a group the holders of the equity investment at risk lack any one of the following three characteristics: (i) the power, through voting rights or similar rights to direct the activities of an entity that most significantly impact the entitys economic performance, (ii) the obligation to absorb the expected losses of the entity, or (iii) the right to receive the expected residual returns of the entity. The Company reviewed the consolidation guidance and concluded that the joint venture LLCs are not VIEs. The Company further reviewed the management fees paid to it by its joint venture partners and determined that they do not create variable interests in the entities. As of June 30, 2010, the Company has no land purchase options outstanding requiring evaluation as VIEs and potential consolidation. The Company has concluded that there is no impact on the financial statements as a result of the adoption of the new guidance.
Under applicable accounting guidance, the managing member of a limited liability company, or LLC, is presumed to control the joint venture LLCs and must prove non-managing member(s) have certain rights that preclude the managing member from exercising unilateral control. The Company has reviewed its control as the General Partner of the Companys joint venture assets and concluded that it does not have control over any of the LLCs managed by the Company. The Company has applied the equity method of accounting to its investments in joint ventures.
NOTE D REAL ESTATE PORTFOLIO
FASB guidance on property acquisitions requires the acquiring entity in a business combination to recognize the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the transaction and recognize contingent consideration arrangements and pre-acquisition loss and gain contingencies at their acquisition-date fair value. The acquirer is required to expense, as incurred, acquisition related transaction costs. BRE expenses costs associated with the pursuit of potential acquisitions to General and Administrative expenses. Once an acquisition is probable the costs are categorized and expensed in Other expenses.
Acquisitions
Costs associated with the purchase of operating communities are allocated to land, building and intangibles when applicable, based on FASB business combination guidance.
On March 23, 2010, the Company purchased an operating community totaling 194 units located in San Diego, CA, for an aggregate purchase price of $46,201,000.
On April 20, 2010, the Company purchased an operating community totaling 117 units located in San Jose, CA, for an aggregate purchase price of $29,600,000.

Discontinued operations and dispositions
The results of operations for properties sold during the period or designated as held for sale at the end of the period are required to be classified as discontinued operations if deemed a component of an entity. The property-specific components of net earnings that are classified as discontinued operations include operating results, depreciation expense recognized prior to the classification as held for sale, and the net gain or loss on disposal. The Company allocates interest to discontinued operations to the extent that the property was encumbered.
At June 30, 2010, the Company had two operating apartment communities classified as held for sale located in Riverside, CA totaling 264 and 714 units. The two communities were classified as held for sale in June 2010, and as a result no depreciation has been recorded since the classification.
During April 2010, the Company sold one operating community, Montebello Apartments, a 248 unit property located in Kirkland, WA for an aggregate sales price of approximately $39,000,000, resulting in a net gain on sale of approximately $11,700,000.
During 2009, the Company sold two communities totaling 752 units: Overlook at Blue Ravine, with 512 units located in Folsom, California; and Arbor Pointe, a 240 unit property located in Sacramento, California. The two properties were sold for an aggregate sales price of approximately $67,000,000, resulting in a net gain on sales of approximately $21,574,000. In addition to the two communities, the Company sold an excess parcel of land in Santa Clara, California, classified as held for sale at December 31, 2008, for gross sales proceeds totaling $17,100,000, approximately equal to the carrying value.
For the quarter ended June 30, 2010, the results of operations generated by the two properties held for sale and the one property sold during 2010, were included in discontinued operations on the consolidated statement of income and totaled approximately $12,490,000. For the quarter ended June 30, 2009, the combined results by the two properties held for sale and the one property sold during 2010, and the two properties sold during 2009 were included in the discontinued operations line on the consolidated statement of income and totaled approximately $16,586,000.
The following is a breakdown of the combined results of operations for the operating apartment communities included in discontinued operations:

NOTE E EQUITY
On April 7, 2010, the Company completed an equity offering of 8,050,000 common shares, including shares issued to cover over-allotments, at $34.25 per share. Total net proceeds from this offering were approximately $264,000,000 after deducting the underwriting discount and other offering expenses payable by the Company. The Company used the net proceeds from the offering for general corporate purposes, which included reducing borrowings under its unsecured revolving credit facility.
On February 24, 2010, the Company entered into new Equity Distribution Agreements (EDAs) under which the Company may issue and sell from time to time through or to its sales agents shares of its common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $250,000,000. During the six months ended June 30, 2010, no shares were issued under the EDAs. The Company intends to use any net proceeds from the sale of our shares under the EDAs for general corporate purposes, which may include reducing borrowings under our unsecured credit facility, the repayment of other indebtedness, the redemption or other repurchase of outstanding debt or equity securities, funding for development activities and financing for acquisitions.
Effective February 24, 2010, the Company terminated the equity distribution agreement it entered into on May 14, 2009 under which the Company could issue and sell from time to time through or to its sales agent shares of its common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $125,000,000.

NOTE H NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In June 2009, the FASB changed the consolidation analysis for VIEs to require a qualitative analysis to determine the primary beneficiary of the VIE. The determination of the primary beneficiary of a VIE is based on whether the entity has the power to direct matters which most significantly impact the activities of the VIE and has the obligation to absorb losses, or the right to receive benefits, of the VIE which could potentially be significant to the VIE. The guidance requires an ongoing reconsideration of the primary beneficiary and also amends the events triggering a reassessment. Additional disclosures for VIEs are required, including a description about a reporting entitys involvement with VIEs, how a reporting entitys involvement with a VIE affects the reporting entitys financial statements, and significant judgments and assumptions made by the reporting entity to determine whether it must consolidate the VIE. The new guidance is effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2010. The Company has concluded that there is no impact on the financial statements as a result of the adoption of the guidance.
In January 2010, the FASB issued updated guidance on improving disclosures about fair value measurements. Specifically the guidance adds disclosure requirements for significant transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy and the reasons for these transfers. These disclosures are also made on a gross basis (i.e., significant transfers into each level are disclosed separately from transfers out of each level). The adoption of this guidance did not impact the Companys financial position or results of operations.
In June 2009, the FASB amended guidance related to transfers of financial assets and extinguishment of liabilities to remove the concept of a qualifying special purpose entity, and clarifies and amends the derecognition criteria for determining whether a transfer of a financial asset or portion of a financial asset qualifies for sale accounting. Expanded disclosures regarding transferred assets and how they affect the reporting entity are now required. The new guidance is effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2010. The adoption of this guidance did not impact the Companys financial position or results of operations.

NOTE I FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT
The fair values of the Companys financial instruments (including such items in the financial statement captions as cash, other assets, accounts payable and accrued expenses, and lines of credit) approximate their carrying or contract values based on their nature, terms and interest rates that approximate current market rates. The fair value of mortgage loans payable and unsecured senior notes is estimated using discounted cash flow analyses with an interest rate similar to that of current market borrowing arrangements. The estimated fair value of the Companys mortgage loans and unsecured senior notes is approximately $1,195,000,000 at June 30, 2010 (compared to a carrying value of $1,574,000,000 at June 30, 2010).
Under FASB guidance, fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (i.e. the exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.
Where available, fair value is based on observable market prices or parameters or derived from such prices or parameters. Where observable prices or inputs are not available, valuation models are applied. These valuation techniques involve some level of management estimation and judgment, the degree of which is dependent on the price transparency for the instruments or market and the instruments complexity. Assets and liabilities recorded at fair value in the consolidated statement of financial condition are categorized based upon the level of judgment associated with the inputs used to measure their fair value. Hierarchical levels, defined by the FASB and directly related to the amount of subjectivity associated with the inputs to fair valuation of these assets and liabilities, are as follows:
Level 1 Inputs are unadjusted, quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date. The types of assets and liabilities classified as Level 1 fair value generally are G-7 government and agency securities, equities listed in active markets, investments in publicly traded mutual funds with quoted market prices and listed derivatives.
Level 2 Inputs (other than quoted prices included in Level 1) are either directly or indirectly observable for the asset or liability through correlation with market data at the measurement date and for the duration of the instruments anticipated life. Fair valued assets that are generally included in this category are stock warrants for which there are market-based implied volatilities, unregistered common stock and thinly traded common stock.
Level 3 Inputs reflect managements best estimate of what market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. Consideration is given to the risk inherent in the valuation technique and the risk inherent in the inputs to the model. Generally, assets carried at fair value and included in this category include stock warrants for which market-based implied volatilities are not available.
Fair Value Measurements
Our redeemable noncontrolling interests that have a conversion feature are required to be marked to redemption value at each reporting period. The maximum redemption amount of the redeemable noncontrolling interests is contingent on the fair value of the Companys common stock at the redemption date, and therefore the amount reported on the consolidated balance sheets is calculated based on the fair value of the Companys common stock as of the balance sheet date. Since the valuation is based on observable inputs such as quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, redeemable noncontrolling interests are classified as Level 2. The impact was an increase of redeemable noncontrolling interests to $2,261,000 at June 30, 2010 and an increase in redeemable noncontrolling interests to $4,624,000 at December 31, 2009, to adjust the noncontrolling interest to its redemption value with an offsetting change in additional paid in capital.

June 30, 2010
The estimated fair values of investment securities classified as deferred compensation plan investments are based on quoted market prices utilizing public information for the same transactions or information provided through third-party advisors and are therefore classified as Level 1. The Companys deferred compensation plan investments are recorded in other assets and totaled $2,736,000 and $2,604,000 at June 30, 2010 and at December 31, 2009.
There were no transfers of assets measured at fair value between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy for the three months ended June 30, 2010.

Forward-Looking Statements
In addition to historical information, we have made forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. These forward-looking statements pertain to, among other things, our capital resources, financial liquidity, portfolio performance and results of operations. Forward-looking statements involve numerous risks and uncertainties. You should not rely on these statements as predictions of future events because there is no assurance that the events or circumstances reflected in the statements can be achieved or will occur. Forward-looking statements are identified by words such as believes, expects, may, will, should, seeks, approximately, intends, plans, pro forma, estimates or anticipates or in their negative form or other variations, or by discussions of strategy, plans or intentions. Forward-looking statements are based on assumptions, data or methods that may be incorrect or imprecise or incapable of being realized. The following factors, among others, could affect actual results and future events: defaults or non-renewal of leases, illiquidity of real estate and reinvestment risk, our regional focus in the Western United States, insurance coverage, increased interest rates and operating costs, failure to obtain necessary outside financing, difficulties in identifying properties to acquire and in effecting acquisitions, failure to successfully integrate acquired properties and operations, risks and uncertainties affecting property development and construction (including construction delays, cost overruns, inability to obtain necessary permits and public opposition to such activities), failure to qualify as a real estate investment trust under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, environmental uncertainties, risks related to natural disasters, financial market fluctuations, changes in real estate and zoning laws and increases in real property tax rates. Our success also depends upon economic trends, including interest rates, income tax laws, governmental regulation, legislation, population changes and other factors. Do not rely solely on forward-looking statements, which only reflect managements analysis. We assume no obligation to update forward-looking statements.
Executive Summary
We are a self-administered equity real estate investment trust, or REIT, focused on the acquisition, development and management of multifamily apartment communities in the Western United States. At June 30, 2010, our portfolio had real estate assets with a net book value of approximately $3.0 billion that included 75 wholly or majority-owned apartment communities, aggregating 21,604 units; 13 multifamily communities owned in joint ventures, comprised of 4,080 apartment units; and five wholly or majority-owned apartment communities in various stages of construction and development, totaling 1,568 units. We earn revenue and generate cash primarily by collecting monthly rent from our apartment residents.
We currently have one community with a total of 270 units under construction. The total estimated investment is $89,700,000, with an estimated balance to complete totaling $4,600,000. The final units are expected to be delivered during the third quarter of 2010. The development community is located in Northern California. At June 30, 2010, we owned four parcels of land for future development located in Northern and Southern California.
During the quarter, we completed an equity offering of 8,050,000 common shares, including shares issued to cover over-allotments, at $34.25 per share. Total net proceeds from this offering were approximately $264,000,000 after deducting the underwriting discount and other offering expenses. We used the net proceeds from the offering for general corporate purposes, which include reducing borrowings under our unsecured revolving credit facility. This offering strengthened our balance sheet credit metrics and provided additional capital capacity for growth.
16
Our year-over-year operating results reflect same-store performance, rental and ancillary income from communities stabilized during 2009, and properties in the lease-up phase of development. We define same-store properties as stabilized apartment communities owned by us for at least five full quarters. Acquired communities and recently completed development properties are considered non same-store communities.
Results of Operations
Comparison of the Three Months Ended June 30, 2010 and 2009
Rental and ancillary income
Total rental and ancillary revenues were $84,763,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2010, compared to $82,416,000 for the same period in 2009. We define our non same-store communities as communities acquired, developed and stabilized after December 31, 2008. During the 18 months subsequent to December 31, 2008, we had 1,097 units in different phases of lease up and we acquired 311 units. Total rental and ancillary income increased by $2,347,000 or 3% during the three months ended June 30, 2010. Same-store communities revenue decreased by approximately $2,147,000 or 3% for the three months ended June 30, 2010, compared to the same period in 2009. The decrease was offset by an increase in rental and ancillary revenues from non same-store communities of approximately $4,494,000 or 193% for the three months ended June 30, 2010, compared to the same period in 2009. Monthly market rents in the same-store portfolio for the second quarter of 2010 decreased 6.7% to $1,397 per unit from $1,497 per unit in the second quarter of 2009. The decrease in rent was offset by increased physical occupancy levels which averaged 95.7% during second quarter 2010, as compared with 93.9% for the same period in 2009.

Real estate expenses
For the quarter ended June 30, 2010, real estate expenses totaled $28,013,000, as compared with $26,101,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2009. The year-over-year increase in total real estate expenses is primarily attributable to non same-store communities. Non same-store expenses increased approximately $1,346,000, or 95% from the quarter ended June 30, 2009 which represents the increase in the year-over-year size of the portfolio from recently completed development properties and properties acquired in 2010. Same-store communities increased $566,000 or 2% during the three months ended June 30, 2010.

Interest expense
Interest expense was $20,727,000 (net of $3,231,000 of interest capitalized to the cost of apartment communities under development and construction) for the quarter ended June 30, 2010, an increase of $1,306,000 from the same period in 2009. Interest expense was $19,421,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 (net of $3,760,000 of interest capitalized to the cost of apartment communities under development and construction). The decrease in capitalized interest for the quarter ended June 30, 2010 from the same period in 2009 is attributable to fewer communities under development and construction during 2010. Even though the average debt balances declined for the three months ended June 30, 2010 as compared to the same period in 2009, the interest expense increased as the ratio of lower cost floating rate debt to total debt was higher in 2009.
General and administrative expenses
General and administrative expenses totaled $5,233,000 and $4,218,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The $1,015,000, or 24%, increase in the current period is primarily due to an increase of $880,000 in stock based compensation costs. During the quarter ended June 30, 2009 stock based compensation was reduced as it became clear that certain performance based awards, vesting at the end of 2009, would not achieve anticipated vesting levels. The stock based compensation for the quarter ended June 30, 2010 has returned to a normalized level.
Other income
Other income for the quarter ended June 30, 2010 totaled $788,000 and is primarily comprised of approximately $425,000 of management fee income and approximately $100,000 of interest income. Other income for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 totaled $1,196,000 and is comprised of approximately $636,000 of insurance settlement proceeds, $424,000 of management fee income and approximately $94,000 of interest income.
18
Other Expenses
Other expenses for the quarter ended June 30, 2010 totaled $1,771,000 and is comprised of approximately $1,300,000 related to a one-time charge associated with the resignation of our Chief Operating Officer and $470,000 related to acquisition costs.
Discontinued operations
BRE classifies the results of operations for properties sold during the period or designated as held for sale at the end of the period and deemed a component of an entity to be classified as discontinued operations. The property-specific components of net earnings that are classified as discontinued operations include all property-related revenues and operating expenses, depreciation expense recognized prior to the classification as held for sale, and property-specific interest expense to the extent there is secured debt on the property. In addition, the net gain or loss on the eventual disposal of properties held for sale is reported as discontinued operations.
At June 30, 2010, the Company had two operating apartment communities classified as held for sale located Riverside, CA totaling, 978 units. The two communities were classified as held for sale in June 2010, and as a result no depreciation has been recorded since the classification.
In April 2010, the Company sold one operating community, Montebello Apartments, a 248 unit property located in Kirkland, WA for an aggregate sales price of approximately $39,000,000, resulting in a net gain on sale of approximately $11,700,000.
During 2009, we sold two communities totaling 752 units: Overlook at Blue Ravine, with 512 units located in Folsom, California; and Arbor Pointe, a 240 unit property located in Sacramento, California. The two properties were sold for an aggregate sales price of approximately $67,000,000, resulting in a net gain on sale of approximately $21,574,000. In addition to the two communities, we sold an excess parcel of land in Santa Clara, California, for gross sales proceeds totaling $17,100,000, approximately equal to the carrying value.
For the quarter ended June 30, 2010, the results of operations generated by the two properties held for sale and the one property sold during 2010 were included in discontinued operations on the consolidated statement of income and totaled approximately $12,490,000. For the quarter ended June 30, 2009, the combined results by the two properties held for sale, the property sold during 2010, and the two properties sold during 2009 were included in the discontinued operations line on the consolidated statement of income and totaled approximately $16,586,000.
Dividends attributable to preferred stock
Dividends attributable to preferred stock for the first quarters of 2010 and 2009 represent the portion of dividends on our 6.75% Series C and 6.75% Series D Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock. All our current outstanding series of preferred stock have a $25.00 per share liquidation share preference.
19
Net income available to common shareholders
As a result of the various factors mentioned above, net income available to common shareholders for the quarter ended June 30, 2010, was $16,297,000, or $0.26 per diluted share, as compared with $28,222,000, or $0.54 per diluted share, for the same period in 2009.

Comparison of the Six Months Ended June 30, 2010 and 2009
Rental and ancillary income
Total rental and ancillary revenues were $167,234,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2010, compared to $164,970,000 for the same period in 2009. We define our non same-store communities as communities acquired, developed and stabilized after December 31, 2008. During the 18 months subsequent to December 31, 2008, we had 1,097 units in different phases of lease up and we acquired 311 units. Total rental and ancillary income increased by $2,264,000 or 1% during the six months ended June 30, 2010. Same-store communities revenue decreased by approximately $6,073,000 or 4% for the six months ended June 30, 2010, compared to the same period in 2009. The decrease was offset by an increase in rental and ancillary revenues from non same-store communities of approximately $8,337,000 or 247% for the six months ended June 30, 2010, compared to the same period in 2009. Monthly market rents in the same-store portfolio for the six months ended June 30, 2010, decreased 7.4% to $1,396 per unit from $1,508 per unit in for the six months ended June 30, 2009. The decrease in rent was offset by increased physical occupancy levels that averaged 95.4% during second quarter 2010, as compared with 93.5% for the same period in 2009.

Interest expense
Interest expense was $41,826,000 (net of $6,364,000 of interest capitalized to the cost of apartment communities under development and construction) for the six months ended June 30, 2010, an increase of $1,383,000 from the same period in 2009. Interest expense was $40,443,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2019 (net of $9,415,000 of interest capitalized to the cost of apartment communities under development and construction). The decrease in capitalized interest for six months ended June 30, 2010 from the same period in 2009 is attributable to fewer communities under development and construction during 2010. Even though the average debt balances declined for the six months ended June 30, 2010 as compared to the same period in 2009, the interest expense increased as the ratio of lower cost floating rate debt to total debt was higher in 2009.
General and administrative expenses
General and administrative expenses totaled $10,439,000 and $8,544,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The $1,895,000, or 22%, increase in the current period is primarily due to an increase of approximately of $1,500,000 in stock based compensation costs. During the six months ended June 30, 2009 stock based compensation was reduced as it became clear that certain performance based awards, vesting at the end of 2009, would not achieve anticipated vesting levels. Stock based compensation for the six months ended June 30, 2010 has returned to a normalized level.
Other income
Other income for the six months ended June 30, 2010 totaled $1,512,000 and is primarily comprised of approximately $842,000 of management fee income, and approximately $357,000 of interest income. Other income for the six months ended June 30, 2009 totaled $1,823,000 and is comprised of approximately $851,000 of management fee income, $636,000 of insurance settlement proceeds, $120,000 related to the sale of an excess parcel of land and approximately $187,000 of interest income.
21
Other Expenses
Other expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2010 totaled $2,696,000 and is comprised of approximately $1,300,000 related to a one-time charge associated with the resignation of our Chief Operating Officer, and approximately $700,000 of acquisition related costs.
Discontinued operations
BRE classifies the results of operations for properties sold during the period or designated as held for sale at the end of the period and deemed a component of an entity to be classified as discontinued operations. The property-specific components of net earnings that are classified as discontinued operations include all property-related revenues and operating expenses, depreciation expense recognized prior to the classification as held for sale, and property-specific interest expense to the extent there is secured debt on the property. In addition, the net gain or loss on the eventual disposal of properties held for sale is reported as discontinued operations.
At June 30, 2010, we had two operating apartment communities classified as held for sale located in Riverside, CA totaling 978 units. The two communities were classified as held for sale in June 2010, and as a result no depreciation has been recorded since the classification.
In April 2010, we sold one operating community, Montebello Apartments, a 248 unit property located in Kirkland, WA for an aggregate sales price of approximately $39,000,000, resulting in a net gain on sale of approximately $11,700,000.
During 2009, we sold two communities totaling 752 units: Overlook at Blue Ravine, with 512 units located in Folsom, California; and Arbor Pointe, a 240 unit property located in Sacramento, California. The two properties were sold for an aggregate sales price of approximately $67,000,000, resulting in a net gain on sale of approximately $21,574,000. In addition to the two communities, we sold an excess parcel of land in Santa Clara, California, for gross sales proceeds totaling $17,100,000, approximately equal to the carrying value.
For the six months ended June 30, 2010, the results of operations generated by the two properties held for sale and the property sold during 2010, were included in discontinued operations on the consolidated statement of income and totaled approximately $13,744,000. For the six months ended June 30, 2009, the combined results by the two properties held for sale, the property sold during 2010, and the two properties sold during 2009 were included in the discontinued operations line on the consolidated statement of income and totaled approximately $19,319,000.
Dividends attributable to preferred stock
Dividends attributable to preferred stock for the first quarters of 2010 and 2009 represent the portion of dividends on our 6.75% Series C and 6.75% Series D Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock. All our current outstanding series of preferred stock have a $25.00 per share liquidation share preference.
22
Net income available to common shareholders
As a result of the various factors mentioned above, net income available to common shareholders for the six months ended June 30, 2010, was $21,822,000, or $0.37 per diluted share, as compared with $41,215,000, or $0.79 per diluted share, for the same period in 2009.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
In the event that we do not have sufficient cash available to us from our operations to continue operating our business as usual, we may need to find alternative ways to increase our liquidity. Such alternatives may include, without limitation: (a) divesting ourselves of properties at less than optimal terms; (b) issuing and selling our debt and equity in public or private transactions under less than optimal conditions; (c) entering into leases with new tenants at lower rental rates or less than optimal terms; (d) entering into lease renewals with our existing tenants without an increase in rental rates at turnover; (e) reducing the level of dividends to common shareholders to the minimum level necessary to maintain our corporate REIT status under the Internal Revenue Code; or (f) paying a portion of our dividends in stock rather than cash. Taking such measures to increase liquidity may have a materially adverse effect on us and our ability to make distributions to our shareholders and pay amounts due on our debt.
On July 30, 2009, Our Board of Directors approved a reduction on quarterly common dividends to $0.3750 from $0.5625 per share effective for the third quarter of 2009. Our dividend per share amounts for the quarters ending June 30, 2010 and 2009 were $0.3750 and $0.5625, respectively. The quarterly common dividend payment of $0.3750 is equivalent to $1.50 per common share on an annualized basis.
Depending upon the availability and cost of external capital, we anticipate making additional investments in multifamily apartment communities. These investments are expected to be funded through a variety of sources. These sources may include internally generated cash, temporary borrowings under our revolving unsecured line of credit, proceeds from asset sales, public and private offerings of debt and equity securities, and in some cases the assumption of secured borrowings. To the extent that these additional investments are initially financed with temporary borrowings under our revolving unsecured line of credit, we anticipate that permanent financing will be provided through a combination of public and private offerings of debt and equity securities, proceeds from asset sales and secured debt. However, permanent financing may not be available on favorable terms, or at all. We believe our liquidity and various sources of available capital are sufficient to fund operations, meet debt service and dividend requirements, and finance future investments. For the six months ended June 30, 2010, cash flows generated from operating activities were in excess of distributions to common shareholders, preferred shareholders and noncontrolling interest members by approximately $20,000,000. Due to the timing associated with operating cash flows, there may be certain periods where cash flows generated by operating activities are less than distributions. We believe our unsecured credit facility provides adequate liquidity to address temporary cash shortfalls. We expect that annual cash flows from operations will exceed annual distributions to equity holders for the year ended December 31, 2010, which is consistent with prior years. Annual cash flows from operating activities exceeded annual distributions to common shareholders, preferred shareholders and noncontrolling interest members by approximately $16,000,000 and $37,000,000 for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

We had a total of $794,897,000 carrying amount in unsecured senior notes at June 30, 2010, consisting of the following:

(1) | The notes are putable by holders on February 21, 2012, August 15, 2013, August 15, 2016, and August 15, 2021. This principal amount of our 4.125% convertible unsecured debt outstanding totaled $356,334,000 (net of a $9,990,000 discount). The notes have a final contractual maturity of August 15, 2026 and are callable by us on or after February 21, 2012. |
In addition, at June 30, 2010, we had mortgage indebtedness with a total principal amount outstanding of $779,382,000, at an effective interest rate of 5.59%, and remaining terms ranging from two to eleven years.
As of June 30, 2010, we had total outstanding debt balances of approximately $1,650,000,000 and total outstanding consolidated shareholders equity and redeemable noncontrolling interests of approximately $1,310,000,000 representing a debt to total book capitalization ratio of 56%.
We may from time to time seek to retire or purchase our outstanding debt through cash purchases and/or exchanges for equity securities in open market purchases or privately negotiated transactions. Such repurchases or exchanges, if any, will depend on prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions and other factors. The amounts involved may be material.
Our indebtedness contains financial covenants as to minimum net worth, interest coverage ratios, maximum secured debt, total debt to capital, and cash on hand among others. We were in compliance with all such financial covenants during the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009.
We anticipate that we will continue to require outside sources of financing to meet our long-term liquidity needs beyond 2010, such as scheduled debt repayments, construction funding and property acquisitions. At June 30, 2010, we had an estimated cost of approximately $4,600,000 to complete existing construction in progress, with funding estimated through 2010. As of June 30, 2010 scheduled debt repayments through December 31, 2010 totaled approximately $1,000,000.
During the fourth quarter of 2007, we filed a new shelf registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission under which we may issue securities, including debt securities, common stock and preferred stock. Depending upon market conditions, we may issue securities under this or under future registration statements.
On April 7, 2010, we completed an equity offering of 8,050,000 common shares, including shares issued to cover over-allotments, at $34.25 per share. Total net proceeds from this offering were approximately $264,000,000 after deducting the underwriting discount and other offering expenses. We used the net proceeds from the offering for general corporate purposes, which included reducing borrowings under our unsecured revolving credit facility.
On April 26, 2007, our Board of Directors authorized us to purchase an aggregate of up to $100,000,000 in shares of our common stock. As of May 7, 2010, we have not purchased any shares under this authorization.
24
We continue to consider other sources of possible funding, including new joint ventures and additional secured construction and term debt. We own unencumbered real estate assets that could be sold, contributed to joint ventures or used as collateral for financing purposes (subject to certain lender restrictions). We also own encumbered assets with significant equity that could be further encumbered should other sources of capital not be available (subject to certain lender restrictions).
25
Construction in progress and land under development
The following table provides data on our multifamily properties that are currently under various stages of development and construction. Completion of the development properties is subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including construction delays and cost overruns. We cannot provide assurance that these properties will be completed, or that they will be completed by the estimated dates, or for the estimated amounts, or will contain the number of proposed units shown in the table below. In addition to the properties below, we have predevelopment costs on land under contract for potential projects totaling approximately $14,200,000 recorded in Other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheet.

Dividends Paid to Common and Preferred Shareholders and Distributions to Noncontrolling Interest Members
A cash dividend has been paid to common shareholders each quarter since our inception in 1970. On July 30, 2009, our Board of Directors approved a reduction on quarterly common dividends to $0.3750 from $0.5625 per share effective for the third quarter of 2009. Our dividend per share amounts for the quarters ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 were $0.7500 and $1.125 per share, respectively. Total dividends paid to common shareholders for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 were $45,165,000 and $59,197,000, respectively. In addition, we paid $5,906,000 in aggregate on our 6.75% Series C and 6.75% Series D Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock during the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.
Total distributions to redeemable noncontrolling interests were $535,000 and $879,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Total distributions to other noncontrolling interests of our consolidated subsidiaries were $210,000 and $212,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.
ITEM 3 Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
Information concerning market risk is incorporated herein by reference to Item 7A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009. There has been no material change in the quantitative and qualitative disclosure about market risk since December 31, 2009.
ITEM 4 Controls and Procedures.
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commissions rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that there are reasonable assurances that our controls and procedures will achieve the desired control objectives. Also, we have investments in certain unconsolidated entities. As we do not control these entities, our disclosure controls and procedures with respect to such entities are necessarily substantially more limited than those we maintain with respect to our consolidated subsidiaries.
As of June 30, 2010, the end of the quarter covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on the foregoing, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during our most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
