December 31, 2007 and 2006. The consolidated net loss for the three
months ended December 31, 2007 was $1,569,000 or $0.07 per share
compared to consolidated net loss of $1,567,000 or $0.11 per share for
the three months ended December 31, 2006. The consolidated net loss
for the year ended December 31, 2007 was $903,000 or $0.04 per share
compared to consolidated net loss of $2,049,000 or $0.14 per share for
the year ended December 31, 2006.

   TPGI's share of after tax cash flow (a non-GAAP financial
measure), for the three months ended December 31, 2007 was $4,028,000
or $0.17 per share compared to after tax cash flow of $3,755,000 or
$0.26 per share for the three months ended December 31, 2006. TPGI's

$14,860,000 or $1.04 per share for the year ended December 31, 2006.
We define after tax cash flow (ATCF) as net income (loss) excluding
the following items: deferred income taxes, minority interest,
non-cash charges for depreciation and amortization, amortization of
loan costs, non-cash compensation expense, straight-line rent
adjustments and fair market value rent adjustments. ATCF is further
described in note (c) to the financial statements below.

   "In the fourth quarter, we made progress stabilizing our joint
venture properties; occupancy continues to increase in this value-add
portfolio," said James A. Thomas, President and CEO. "We are
continuing to execute on our development program, a key driver in our
growth strategy. Our balance sheet is stable, and we have a strong
cash position which should allow us to take advantage of opportunities
to enhance the value of our company."

(a) EBDT is a non-GAAP financial measure and may not be directly
 comparable to similarly-titled measures reported by other companies.
 We define EBDT as net income (loss) excluding the following items: i)
 deferred income tax expense (benefit); ii) minority interests; iii)
 non-cash charges for depreciation and amortization; and iv)
 amortization of loan costs. EBDT provides a performance measure that,
 when compared year over year, reflects the impact to operations from
 changes to occupancy rates, rental rates, operating costs,
 development and redevelopment activities, general and administrative
 expenses, and interest costs, and provides perspective on operating
 performance not immediately apparent from net income. EBDT should be
 considered only as a supplement to net income as a measure of our
 performance. EBDT also assists management in identifying trends for
 purposes of financial planning and forecasting results. However, the
 usefulness of EBDT as a performance measure is limited and EBDT
 should not be used as a measure of our liquidity, nor is it
 indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs. EBDT also
 should not be used as a supplement to or substitute for cash flow
 from operating activities (computed in accordance with GAAP).

(b) Based on an interest in our operating partnership of 60.5% and
 45.2% for the three months ended December 31, 2007 and 2006,
 respectively, and 56.1% and 45.3% for the year ended December 31,
 2007 and 2006, respectively.

(c) ATCF is a non-GAAP financial measure and may not be directly
 comparable to similarly-titled measures reported by other companies.
 We define ATCF as net income (loss) excluding the following items: i)
 deferred income tax expense (benefit); ii) minority interests; iii)
 non-cash charges for depreciation and amortization; iv) amortization
 of loan costs; v) non-cash compensation expense; vi) the adjustment
 to recognize rental revenues using the straight-line method; and vii)
 the adjustment to rental revenue to reflect the fair market value of
 rents. Management utilizes ATCF data in assessing performance of our
 business operations in period-to-period comparisons and for financial
 planning purposes. ATCF should be considered only as a supplement to
 net income as a measure of our performance. ATCF should not be used
 as a measure of our liquidity, nor is it indicative of funds
 available to fund our cash needs. ATCF also should not be used as a
 supplement to or substitute for cash flow from operating activities
 (computed in accordance with GAAP).
