For the three month period ended June 30, 2014, the Company reported earnings before income taxes of $137,747 on operating revenues of $1,185,504 compared to earnings before income taxes of $160,734 on operating revenues of $1,203,922 for the corresponding period in 2013. Revenues decreased during the three month period ended June 30, 2014 as a result of adjusted recovery of Common Area Maintenance costs from certain commercial tenants and an increase in residential vacancy at the Company's Quebec property. Rental expenses for the three month period ended June 30, 2014 increased to $564,419 compared to $527,898 for the corresponding period in 2013.

Net income during the six month period ended June 30, 2014 decreased to $284,388 from $345,740 during the corresponding period in 2013. This decrease is attributable to the Quebec Property coming on-line in 2013 and a fair value loss of $247,394 in 2014.

Note 1:
1	Basic Net Income per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year. Diluted Net Income per share is computed using the weighted average number of common and potential common shares outstanding during the year. Potential common shares consist of the incremental common shares issuable upon the conversion of preferred shares and the exercise of stock options using the treasury stock method.

Funds from Operations ("FFO") is a non-IFRS measure and should not be construed as an alternative to net income determined in accordance with IFRS. However, FFO is an operating performance measure which is widely used by the real estate industry and the Company has calculated FFO in accordance with the recommendations of the Real Property Association of Canada ("REALpac").

FFO, or any other non-IFRS performance measure, is not intended to represent operating profits for the period or from a property. Furthermore, it should not be viewed as an alternative to net income, cash flow from operating activities or similar measures of financial performance calculated in accordance with IFRS.

FFO is a widely accepted supplemental measure of financial performance for real estate entities; however, it does not represent amounts available for capital programs, debt service obligations, commitments or uncertainties. FFO should not be interpreted as an indicator of cash generated from operating activities and is not indicative of cash available to fund operating expenditures, or for the payment of cash distributions. FFO is simply one measure of operating performance.

FFO for the six and three month periods ended June 30, 2014 are as follows:
