The company's earnings press release, supplemental information and Form 10-K are available on the company's website.

Healthcare Realty Trust completed a productive fourth quarter. As our core portfolio continued to perform well, with stable occupancy and increases in renewal rental rates and property level in line. Despite difficult economy, outpatient medical office continues to be resilient having sound operating fundamentals that continue to follow the broader context of positive historical growth trends. Since 1972, through six recessions, physician office employment has grown annually by approximately 4.8% compared with the national private employment growth rate of only 1.8%. We view healthcare employment as the best indicator of demand for facility utilization and our managing our expectations of lease rates and the time necessary to lease up new buildings. Excluding government and education, healthcare was the only industry to experience a significant increase in employment throughout 2008, and even in January 2009 when national unemployment reached its highest rate in 16 years. The healthcare industry added 19,000 jobs in January versus the national loss of some 598,000 non-farm jobs. Physician office employment grew 3% over the last 12 months, which was slightly higher than the prior year's growth rate. Healthcare real estate remains a business that is driven by the increasing number of clinical services demanded from hospitals by physicians and ultimately the consumers rather than economic trends. Heightened sensitivity to the current economic climate has prompted leasing concerns across most sectors of real estate. Having developed several hundred million dollars in outpatient facilities over the last ten years, it has been our experience that leasing is usually ruled by randomness and medical office has historically not been subject to the same economic cycle seen in general office. Furthermore, the low fundability nature of MOBs enhances the prospects for success. Leasing activity for prior facilities and stabilization continues to be positive. This month our recently opened Colorado Springs…

Demand for healthcare in the U.S. remains strong despite the weakened stated of the economy. The practice patterns of patients and provides continue to drive increases in national healthcare spending, employment and funding. Approximately $1 in $5 of the U.S. economy is spent on healthcare services, according to the latest data on national healthcare expenditures. In 2007, healthcare spending grew 6.1% to $2.2 trillion growing at a slower rater than previous years mainly due to changes in pharmaceutical practices but still expanding faster than the overall economy reaching 16.2% of GDP versus 16% in 2006. GDP had slowed in the struggling economy while healthcare spending trends have remained relatively recession proof. The breakdown on spending among various service sectors stayed largely the same as the prior year with hospital and physician services comprising the majority of total spending at 52%. Hospital services growth accelerated slightly in 2007 up 7.3% and physician services rose 6.5% even with the rate of growth in the previous year. Hospital companies are releasing fourth quarter earnings mostly in line with expectations reporting reasonable operating trends for the current economic environment. Strong cash flows in revenue growth were driven mainly by solid price increases while bad debt expenses remained flat to lower than in recent years. Bad debt expense could increase as unemployment rises, although federal assistance should help the uninsured. While hospital companies are reporting soft admissions volume, outpatient and surgical volumes have increased with operators attributing the growth to diligent physician recruiting and marketing efforts. Rating agencies have lowered their outlook for the healthcare industry citing investment losses, uncompensated care and few patients. However, standard employers affirmed its original rating for 83% of healthcare providers under its credit review underscoring the sector's long-term resilience and noted that smaller and less credit worthy providers were…

Now I would like to ask Mr. Holmes to give us an overview of the numbers and make comments on other financial activities.

Before addressing operating results for the fourth quarter, I would like to note that the company's Form 10-K, which contains financial statements and related footnotes and management's discussion and analysis of results of operations, liquidity, capital resources and other matters, was filed yesterday afternoon. And at the same time, information was furnished on a Form 8-K to supplement the Form 10-K disclosures, specifically regarding real estate investments, construction in progress and developments, lease maturities, joint venture investments, same facility growth and other corporate information. FFO per diluted share for the fourth quarter of 2008 computed according to the NAREIT definition was $0.49 per share. There are six one-time or unusual items reflected in fourth quarter FFO that warrant discussion. Before the six items, FFO per diluted share was $0.38. FAD per diluted share for the fourth quarter was $0.54 compared to $0.44 in the third quarter of 2008. A reconciliation of all items included in the calculation of FAD for the quarter, as well as a reconciliation of FFO, can be found on the last page of the earnings press release furnished yesterday afternoon. For the full year 2008, the dividend payout ratio based on FFO was 94.5% and based on FAD was 82.8%. The six one-time or unusual items in the fourth quarter are these. First, a property operating agreement termination fee of $7.2 million increased FFO in the fourth quarter. During the quarter, the company entered into agreements with a sponsoring hospital system to terminate the property operating agreement and sell to them the medical office building. The sponsor had a longstanding interest in purchasing this property in Cheyenne, Wyoming. The cash payment from the sponsor to the company to terminate the POA was $7.2 million. The property was moved to assets held for sale in the company's…

Now we'd like to go to Mr. Whitman who'll give us more specific information regarding the recent investments and development activities.

Before I provide an update on our acquisition and development activity, I would like to comment on the operations of our existing portfolios. Despite the worsening economic recession, our portfolio of outpatient medical facilities is showing stability and even growth. The occupancy for our stabilized properties remained steady in the fourth quarter at 91%. Compared to the fourth quarter of 2007, our same store NOI for master lease properties increased by 2.9% and by 3% for our owned and managed facilities. The weighted average rental rate for our owned and managed properties increased for the fifth straight quarter with rent on existing leases increasing 3.1% and on renewing leases by 6.4%. For the year, the weighted average NOI per square foot in our owned and managed portfolio increased by 4.3%. While growth of this nature may sound counterintuitive during a recession that worsened throughout 2008, we believe it is further evidence of the stability of healthcare spending. Secular trends and demographics, including positive growth and medical office employment, show rising demand for outpatient medical services, and Washington D.C. continues to demonstrate its desire to allocate ever greater amounts of federal dollars to healthcare. Against this positive backdrop of healthcare employment and spending, we look ahead at 2009 when about 450 of the company's leases, with an average lease size of only 4,235 square feet, expired. The expirations are mostly related to acquisitions we closed in 2004, such as Baylor, Ascension and MedStar, and the five-year leases that were signed at the time. Nearly three-fourths of the square footage related to these leases are in the owned and managed portfolio. We view this as an opportunity and expect that the leases will renew at favorable rates because 86% of them are an on-campus property, with nearly half being with hospital tenants…

Now operator we are ready for the question and answer period.

(Operator Instructions) Your first question comes from Rob Mains. Rob Mains – Morgan Keegan &Company: Couple questions, first of all, you mentioned the secured debt environment, could you describe a little bit how that looks right now for medical office buildings? I know that the agencies are still active in senior housing just want a sense as to what you're seeing for medical offices.

Rob, the backdrop is that from mostly the secured financing is the insurance company market. They're about the only people in that sector providing secured financing. On medical office buildings historically for many decades, delinquencies and defaults medical office building has the lowest rate of any real estate type or class in the United States. So, most life insurance companies know that MOBs in the past have had a very low correlation regarding economic trends so on and so forth. We have had a high level of interest, I think because of that. Also I think because the quality portfolio obviously the rent growth is a good backdrop for that. I would say as far as rates we are kind of seeing quotes right at 7% with terms that are seven to ten years something like that. So we began to kind of stir on that, as you know, a little bit in the fall. We're pleased with the level of discussion we're having on that. Rob Mains – Morgan Keegan &Company: Okay. Then the one MOB that was scheduled for 2010 in Texas, could you go into your thoughts behind into putting that off for now?

The one that we changed the land held for development. Rob Mains – Morgan Keegan &Company: Yes.

Okay. It was two parcels contiguous to each other. We bought the front and back parcels we opted to develop the back parcel first, and just merely holding onto the front parcel, which is probably the better parcel in the long run until the environment improves a little bit and we complete the one in the back. We have every intention of developing it. This empty parcel will actually now will then be the same which in between the hospital, which is across the street, and also where we bought a building in 2007 and our new development. So this empty parcel in the middle sort of completes the canvas. Rob Mains – Morgan Keegan &Company: Okay. So it is clearly just a postponement.

Correct. Yes.

Tayo Okusanya – UBS : Just a couple of questions, in regards to the lease up project, I know you talked about in January you're starting to see some activity and some interest for the Texas project, but in regards to Colorado, the NOI changing so much to negative 437 during the quarter from negative 98 in 3Q. Could you talk about what caused that difference? Then on the Texas project as well, although there was no increase in occupancy, the NOI actually went up pretty well almost doubled on a quarterly basis. What's going on there as well?

I'll take the Texas ones first. Leases have been signed and they show up in the supplemental data as a signed lease so the tenant may not have actually taken occupancy as the space is still billed out. And so when tenants actually take occupancy of their space and pay rent you will see the NOI increase, even though the lease number may not have changed. Conversely on the Colorado property, you're seeing a full quarter of operating expenses on that building when it opened in the third quarter. I think it opened during the period. Tayo Okusanya – UBS: And then next question in regards to acquisition activity out there, although there is not a lot, can you give us a sense of what you've seen cap rate wise?

That's a big question. Cap rates wise it's a bit out spread, it's fairly wide. We have told our folks start some discussions at the 8% to 9% rage and see if they call you back, and in many instances they still are. So the cap rate will just depend a little bit on the nature of the seller and whether he or she has debt maturity or what his or her circumstances are, but I think we're certainly creeping higher. If it's a stellar portfolio sold by a hospital you might still get 7, 7%, but I warrant off kind of thing is certainly going to be much higher. So this I think the range of cap rate now has exploded and I think our previous efforts to get cap rate.com going or supported by all this activity.

Your next question comes from [Connor Feneti] – Deutsche Bank. [Connor Feneti] – Deutsche Bank: I just had one quick question, have you guys had any conversation with any of the tenants about 2009 rents or expirations?

Well as a process we have a perspective renewal schedule on each building and we discuss those. Physicians like to hear about their rents a long time ahead of time so I would say we've already had discussions with most of our tenants about any renewals that are happening in '09. To the best of my knowledge, we have not had any indication that there are any issues regarding any of those renewals, and when we have those discussions we do tell them what the rent is going to be not just the fact that we need to sit down and negotiate or talk. So right now we're keeping our fingers crossed but everything seems to be tracking historical patterns. [Connor Feneti] – Deutsche Bank: Okay. And then regards to rent growth you except low single digits or flat to last year? Or excuse me to where '08 leases were signed?

No. We expect that probably we will eke out about the same amount to 3%, 4%, 5% in that range because we haven't really received any indication that it may be otherwise. And to some degree and one of the overall thing from the standpoint of the economy is that people tend to stay a little more stay put during this kind of environment so that actually might help us on renewal rates.

Your next question comes from [Doug Sanfisto] [Doug Sanfisto]: Just a couple of questions, and I may have missed this. But it looks like the underlying occupancy in the nine properties under the operating agreements fell by about 10%. Can you just talk about what's driving that decline and your outlook for those assets going forward? I mean I know that you guys are receiving 100% on an economic basis, but nonetheless.

Well this is Scott. I think probably what's happened is there's just been no drop but we've seen some properties that are no longer covered by TOA that have dropped out of the mix. So of the properties that remain that are covered by TOA, they has been no decrease in the occupancy in those. We're just looking at a different sub set of properties. Now the ones that expired at the end of the year were very highly occupied, so they're now out of the mix. [Doug Sanfisto]: And are you anticipating the ones that are still in that mix getting leased up over the next 12 months?

Well they are in essence already highly leased so a lot of times the property operating agreements on hospitals it's kind of a two-edged sword. The hospital is not necessarily interested increasing rent as much as we were. So a lot of times to some degree it's to our advantage even though there's some interim pain for us to not elect to renew some of these POAs even it we want to. So to some degree with some interim kind of pain, but our experience that we've had on the particular campus that I think applies to this question is we had one, what's that Scott a year ago, year and a half ago?

Middle of '07.

Yes, '07 that expired and we've actually during that period of time the rents are pretty much now back to where they were before. We were even able to increase some rent to 24%, 26%. So to some degree it's a little bit of anomaly that, because there is a difference between the POA and the underlying, it doesn't necessarily reflect that there's any in essence basic economic difference. [Doug Sanfisto]: And then can you just talk a bit further about the conversations that you've had with some banks surrounding the credit facility, and if you have any thoughts on where the spread will go. And if not or if you don't want to discuss it right now, should we just simply expect it to be fairly consistent with the increases that we've seen recently from some of the other non-healthcare focused regions?

The crystal ball here is kind of foggy. I think, as far as the talk that we've had with some people who are even in the market now and with some of the banks who are considering those renewals and those kind of things, I think there's a general backdrop that there may be some issues from some banks to some banks because of mergers and acquisitions and some of those kind of those things. But we're pretty fortunate on that front and that we don't have anybody who's kind of like crippled their size or doubled their size because of that. So to some degree pricing, I don't really know because there really hasn't been any data point. But I think, as far as terms and conditions, Scott you have anything to add?

I think the ones that are in the market now, the terms and conditions are fairly consistent with where they have been. We're kind of hearing generally speaking in the LIBOR plus 300 plus basis point range. I don't know if that's going to be the final answer on any of these or not, but that's the noise we're hearing, and we're currently at LIBOR plus 90. So that would be for us, if it were 300 that would be a little over 200 basis point increase in the rate.

If you have some other color you could share with us, we'd appreciate that. [Doug Sanfisto]: I think that the 300 basis point range is actually pretty consistent with what we've seen thus far. And I guess just lastly, can you just help us understand your view on the dividends since, based on our sort of numbers it remains slightly unfunded and given the appearance focus on maintaining liquidity, have you had any discussions with the board, and also what are your thoughts on the cash stock payout?

Well I'll take the last one first, cash stock. We don't really see issuing stock at these levels has been anything that's in our particular case would be beneficial for anyone. On the first part of your question, I think the premise that you use as being uncovered I think is incorrect. I think we do a quarterly cash flow statement monthly. I think we're probably only read I think that does that and that's in accordance with GAAP and FASB 95. And that basically is the tool that we use to measure dividend policy and otherwise and so that's kind of our guide as to coverage and those kind of things. As far as discussion with the board, we have the discussion every quarter regarding forecast and coverage and all those kind of things, and there has not been any discussion about any change in the dividend policy.

Your next question comes from Jerry Doctrow. Jerry Doctrow – Stifel Nicolaus & Co: Just a couple of things, David, there's an item in the K about master leases, which I think you've touched on maybe in general. But just like to understand a little bit more about your rational for letting them expire? And you suggest, I think by some language in there, that you could see some dip in income initially and then rebound. Just any sense of quantity what kind of magnitude we're talking about there.

Doug, do you want to respond to that?

Well some of master leases that have expired are multi-tenanted facilities so we are now just the landlord too, but we're previously the sub tenant, and as those leases roll we have begun to increase, sort of like what we do when the POA expires, increase those underlying rents, which have been kept part officially low. And we've had good luck I know in a couple instances in Florida where that's happened, where properties underlying rents are now increasing quite a bit. I don't know if it's a magnitude yet off top of my head we can keep look that up and follow up, Jerry.

Well, Jerry in general we really don't want to have any master leased buildings that are sub tenanted. We think that if there's any credit enhancements you might get from somebody who is master leasing the building is offset by opportunity and growth. And so I think you'll find anytime we have the opportunity to get out from under a master lease that has sub tenant income, we would try to do so. Jerry Doctrow – Stifel Nicolaus & Co: And again, just that line sort of saying that you might see some short-term impact.

I think that's just a normal affect, but obviously we're owning the building for a long time and we certainly have a fairly high degree of correlation regarding the stickiness of tenants and our ability to increase rent over the last seven or eight years I guess it is. We've been able to increase rents basically the rents now are about 135% of where they were in 2000, and compared to general office, which is about 102% of where they were in 2000. So in that kind of backdrop, I think that getting control of the sub tenancy in the long run is the right thing to do, even though there's some interim kind of pain related to that because you can't change the rent immediately. But also we have the benefit that we have short-term leases. So we don't have any master lease building that's got sub tenants in it on 10 or 15-year leases. Jerry Doctrow – Stifel Nicolaus & Co: And what you're losing is sort of just the rent on whatever that unoccupied portion is before you can raise the rent?

No. It's more related to the rent differential.

It's not vacant space.

It's not vacant space. In other words, the hospital, as you heard me say, would give them the rent or would give them space. So to some degree the only imperative there are under is the star clause that they have to charge market rent. But that's also a band, so you can kind of guess which end of the market rent band they are at, which is the lower end. Jerry Doctrow – Stifel Nicolaus & Co: But you don't expect to see a meaningful hit, like am I going to see $0.02, $0.03 pop off earnings as you begin to roll these buildings over or is it just not that material.

No it's not a material thing. It's real muddy, Jerry, but it's not material. Jerry Doctrow – Stifel Nicolaus & Co: In terms just asset sales, you've now got $90 million on assets held for sale. There's some additional stuff you identify as potentially going. I guess the two questions here are do you have a sense of what total sales might be in '09. And can you just give us a little color on I mean I know these things are covered by prior agreements, but what sort of cap rates and stuff you're selling the existing assets for.

Doug?

They range, I think, typically in the 7% to 8% of some of these sales, the Cheyenne one that we recently completed, that was done at a market rate and a very aggressive cap rate. They wanted that property so they paid up for it. So again, it just depends kind of on the motivation of the seller.

And the size, Jerry, has a lot to do with it. Some of these properties have some vacancy in them and they sell and the cap rate's a little bit distorted. Jerry Doctrow – Stifel Nicolaus & Co.: Okay. And then just I'm assuming we should expect the whole $90 million that you've got assets held for sale to go some markup from book on those. And then you identified another $19 million or so that you expect to be exercised in '08. Is something on that order [inaudible] kind of projection of what kind of sales levels you might achieve?

Well, it kind of depends, Jerry, on which ones actually do sell. Sometimes these things have to go into held for sale because the purchase option's been exercised and there are gross investments or fair value, whichever is higher. So, if it's a fair value it would reflect current cap rates, so my guess would be that it's unlikely that all of the items in held for sale will be sold. But I suspect at least half of them maybe three quarters of them will be. It's hard to say right now with any degree of accuracy.

Some of the people that exercised may not be able to follow through on their commitment.

Exactly. And we can't really gauge that too well. Jerry Doctrow – Stifel Nicolaus & Co.: Okay. And you just move them as soon as if they're specified dollars and the sale; it's just that they're covered by agreements so you move them into held for sale?

Correct. And if they sell they'll be gone, if they don't sell and lessee is not able to get the financing and so forth so the probability drops to a low level then we may be in a position of moving those back into the portfolio. Jerry Doctrow – Stifel Nicolaus & Co.: Okay. And last just on some of the renewals releasing again, you sort of touched on this in general terms. So of the percentage of the stuff that you've got, I think it's like 22% or so, the leases roll in '09. You've indicated you expect a fairly high renewal rate on that. I was just wondering if either based on past experience of your sense from discussions already, you can give this a sense of what percentage of that is renewal, what percentage of that might be releasing. I think on releasing you've got a little bit higher rent increases, so just trying to get a little bit more color of what's going on in there.

Jerry, just from a profit statistical standpoint, it would not surprise me that we probably approach 100% of the renewals in this kind of environment, but I think if your kind of asking a modeling kind of question, you might se 10%, 15% as a release, Doug I don't know what do you think?

Yes. Because so many of these properties are on campus and have such a heavy hospital [inaudible] I think that you will see that in our renewal percentage.

Right, 86% of these, Jerry, are on campus so it would surprise me if we don't do 100% of those. Jerry Doctrow – Stifel Nicolaus & Co: And do we know how much square footage we're talking about in that space as opposed to sort of dollars of leases.

Doug got his calculator out. You mean just the amount of square footage. Jerry Doctrow – Stifel Nicolaus & Co: Right, that's being released.

That's up for … Jerry Doctrow – Stifel Nicolaus & Co: It's up for renewal right?

It's up for renewal.

It's about two million feet

Two million feet, but the average lease size is 4,235 feet so that's manageable. Jerry Doctrow – Stifel Nicolaus & Co: I think one of your competitors has about $10 a square foot on TI for renewals, $30 per square foot on releasing NTI, your numbers sort of in that ballpark, below, above?

No. I would say that our usual…

Their shopping Expo and we're shopping at Home Depot.

I'd say that our usual experience is on release it's about $1 a foot a year I guess, something like that for renewals. Jerry Doctrow – Stifel Nicolaus & Co: So, but you're signing five-year renewals or something like that typically.

Well, they're three to five. I think we're trying to keep them as short as we can so we're trying to get the average down to three and a half or four. As far as re-letting space, as you know Jerry you've been on some of these tours, a lot of the times when you relent the space to another physician it's not like going from an insurance agency to a lawyer's office where you have to tear it all out and start over. So to some degree the space is useable in high degree to the next tenant. We may have to change, put a sink in a certain exam room or some kind of something like that, but even the releasing is not big numbers.

Your next question comes from Stephen Swett – KBW. Stephen Swett – Keefe, Bruyette & Woods: A question for Doug, I looked through the 10-K but I didn't see it anywhere. Can you just be specific on the Carolina acquisition, the size and the closing date?

The closing date was December 29th and dollar amounts? Stephen Swett – Keefe, Bruyette & Woods: Yes, dollar amount.

One hundred and six-two million dollars. Stephen Swett – Keefe, Bruyette & Woods: Scott, on your discussions on the line renewal, have the banks indicated that they'd like to see that balance paid down or is that just a non-issue for them?

That's been a non-issue. There's been no discussion about that. Stephen Swett – Keefe, Bruyette & Woods: Okay. And you said the renewal should happen sometime around mid-year?

Yes, that would be my guess. We don't want to wait too long but we would like for the markets to clear as much as they can. And I would point you Steve to your footnote four to the audited financial statements has a pretty thorough discussion about the Carolina's portfolio in it.

Your next question comes from Michael Mueller – JP Morgan. Michael Mueller – JP Morgan: Following up on some of Jerry's questions from before, looking at the POAs looking at the master leases burning off. I know you had tried to address it saying the '09 expirations, 7 of the 14 won't be material. When we combine that with say the five POAs that burned off plus the other expected one in 2009, can you still make that same blanket statement that NOI, you're not really going to see it miss a beat.

Let me correct you, we didn't tell you we wouldn't miss a beat. Michael Mueller – JP Morgan: Okay, well how significant of a quarterly…

Well, that depends upon which lease it is, how much we can renew it for and the timing of those. So if you want to take the number and divide it by 24 and average it out you can do that. I don't know if there's a particular number we'd come up with.

If you took away as an example in Fountain Valley, California where we had one POA expire in the middle of 2007, the rent that we've been able to negotiate with the tenants who are now not covered by the POA those rate increases have been on average 21%. And the other four Fountain Valley properties, which at the time were still covered by the POA, have all now since expired, was only about 10%. So you can see as those leases roll we're able to get a doubling of the renewal percentage. Just by way of example, in the Fountain Valley portfolio over half the space will turn between 2009 and 2010 so it'll take up to a couple years to kind of claw back, but throughout they year we'll be able to make new steps toward getting back to where we were. Michael Mueller – JP Morgan: Okay. And if you're comp growth has been running I think it was close to 3% in the fourth quarter, is the short-term impact of this enough to take it down to zero to one to two. I'm still trying to get a better handle of the short-term impact understanding that it takes an year or two to get to breakeven?

The yield on the Fountain Valley stuff even with all the POAs gone the yield on that portfolio when blended was over eight. It's just the underlying tenants, even with their below market rates is still generating an eight. It didn't disappear off a cliff into zero.

If you need more on that we can drill down on it, Mike, just give us a call. Michael Mueller – JP Morgan: Last question, in terms of the secured debt pricing, not necessarily pricing, but the amount raised, now Scott, you talked, I guess you backed into it with the line balance being at a certain level by year end. What's a rough expectation about how much do you think you had raised on the secured debt side? Do you think it's $50 million, $100, million $150 million?

Well I don't really know, I guess our feel is it's probably between $50 and $100 will be fairly pro forma. It's just depends on the level of interests. One portfolio we have is 71% occupied by AA rated credit. In this environment that's probably going to be something that we can do. That itself would be close to $100 million, I don't really know, but I think $50 to $100 might be in the amount. Scott, is that what you…

I'd say $50 to $150. That would be my expected range.

Your next question comes from Rosemary Pugh – Green Street Rosemary Pugh – Green Street: First question is it true that most of your rent escalations are CPI driven, and what does this mean for your near-term?

I would not say that most are, I'd some of them are, a lot of them are fixed percentage increases. Rosemary Pugh – Green Street: So what percentages are CPI's driven?

I don't know off the top of my head, I'd have to look it up. Rosemary, we'll get back to you on that number. Rosemary Pugh – Green Street: HealthSouth has been paying $2.5 million in replacement rent for three inpatient rehabilitation facilities sold in '05 and the lease term for this rent payment ends in mid-2009. So my question is what are the prospects for you to get this replacement rent that was rolled into other leases renewed?

It is very good. We have identified a different facility in southwest United States that will replicate about 50% of that replacement revenue and that will start sometime this year. We have another facility that will probably start in early 2010 that will probably pick up the remaining balance. Rosemary Pugh – Green Street: So these are new acquisitions?

Yes. They are new facilities for us and new facilities to the health system. Rosemary Pugh – Green Street: So you'll be acquiring them later in the year?

Yes. Rosemary Pugh – Green Street: What is the expected yield on the construction project you funded with $42 million loan if you decide to purchase the building and if you don't? You mentioned that there is an exit fee and it wasn't specified the amount, just trying to understand the returns on this project, can you give us?

Currently we're providing construction financing to the developer on those and if we choose not to purchase the facility at our option, we are merely paid the construction interest on that. I think if we opt to purchase facility, it would be at a market cap rate and we recently actually closed on first of the five that we're eligible to and its yield up into the mid to high eight fully leased. Rosemary Pugh – Green Street: Can you give us any background on the credit profile of the joint venture partner?

Joint venture partner is a local developer in the Des Moines area, probably launched in the credit profile a tenant, which is Mercy Health System which is part of CHI system.

You have a follow up from Rob Mains. Rob Mains – Morgan Keegan & Company: A couple of quick numbers questions, Scott. First of all the bad debt that you incurred in the quarter, is that the end, there is nothing recurring there that we should go back to a kind of normal level in 2009?

That's correct. It's bad debt expense, it's not going to recur, and it won't have any effect on the level of income that we've been recording. Rob Mains – Morgan Keegan & Company: Then the other question on another of the one-time items, the streamline rent income that you realized in the quarter that fell into the interest and other bucket, your interest and other bucket was still up, the mound was still up excluding that from the third to the fourth quarter. Was that the spike in the interest rate you got earlier into the year or is there something else going on that we should be looking at a higher level going forward?

I'll have to dig into that question and answer that offline, Rob. Right off the top of my head, I don't recall anything specific going on there. That's the line that has lease guarantee income and all kinds of stuff going through it, I'll look at that and chat with you offline about it.

Your next question comes from [Ben Lentz]. [Ben Lentz]: Just on the POAs again, sorry to belabor this point. My understanding of the underlying theoretical foundation of how it works was confused a little bit in Jerry's question. When you say you don't really get any of the loss in vacancy when the master lease or the POA is expired, does that mean the hospital covers the vacant portion after the master lease is gone or do you actually have vacancy?

No. The interesting thing here is most all these buildings are nearly 100% occupied. [Ben Lentz]: Is it just the Katrina buildings that drag it down to the 64%?

No. It's different properties in different places but a lot of it just has to do with the hospital from a standpoint. I guess maybe I'm wrong, some buildings we have hospitals sometime say don't lease that floor because we want to keep that floor open for recruitment or special things or whatever, sometimes those factors involve. A lot of times it's just related to the difference in rent. [Ben Lentz]: My understanding was that the rent per square foot paid in the POA would probably be less than you would get from the tenant but you are going to get a lot more vacancy because they are not 100% occupied. From the comments that you said to Jerry now I thought that maybe that wasn't true that the hospital would cover the vacant portion and the rents would actually be below what is implied in the POA. That is where I'm confused. Do you have a vacancy loss when one of these master leases or the POAs is terminated? Do you receive 30% vacancy because it's only 70% occupied?

It's going to vary by building. The ones that expired in California at the end of December, there were four of them that expired, their average occupancy in those buildings were 90% plus. So even though the POA expired, it did not leave a bunch of vacant space generating no income. [Ben Lentz]: The ones that are going to expire in 2009 are 64% occupied?

The one that expires in 2009 is 100% full. The ones that have vacancies don't expire until 2016 or 2017. [Ben Lentz]: So when you use the footnote of the nine properties that are in there that is not referring to the ones that are expiring.

No. Those are the ones that are still in existence. [Ben Lentz]: So they're going to go for the long-term so the near-term impact we'd see in nine and ten is going to be deminimus and that's where your comment to Jerry came from.

Yes, that's right. I apologize for the confusion.

Part of it's looking back and part of it is looking forward.

You have a follow-up from Rosemary Pugh – Green Street Rosemary Pugh – Green Street: What was the gain over undepreciated book value on the Cheyenne sale? The Wyoming MOB that you sold?

Let me reach into my bag of tricks and answer that. The gain was about $5.6 million and the investment was around $20 million and the proceeds in total were around $21 so I'd say about $1 million.

I'm showing no more questions at this time, sir.

Well, we appreciate everyone being on the call today and all of us will be around today if there needs to be any follow up questions or any clarifications. With that, we bid you good day.

Ladies and gentlemen, this does conclude today's conference. You may now disconnect.
