Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

1. Basis of Presentation		The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Agree Realty Corporation (the “Company”) for the six months ended June 30, 2010 have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for audited financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2009 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date. Operating results for the six months ended June 30, 2010 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2010 or for any other interim period. For further information, refer to the audited consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009.

		The Company has evaluated subsequent events since June 30, 2010 for events requiring recording or disclosure in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q.

2. Stock-Based Compensation		The Company estimates the fair value of restricted stock and stock option grants at the date of grant and amortizes those amounts into expense on a straight line basis or amount vested, if greater, over the appropriate vesting period.

		As of June 30, 2010, there was $3,339,406 unrecognized compensation costs related to the outstanding restricted shares, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 3.64 years. The Company used a 0% discount factor and forfeiture rate for determining the fair value of restricted stock. The forfeiture rate was based on historical results and trends.

		The holder of a restricted share award is generally entitled at all times on and after the date of issuance of the restricted shares to exercise the rights of a stockholder of the Company, including the right to vote the shares and the right to receive dividends on the shares.

	Shares Outstanding			Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value
Unvested restricted shares at January 1, 2010		140,980		$	22.40
Restricted shares granted		83,800			23.25
Restricted shares vested		(31,150	)		23.73
Restricted shares forfeited		(20,610	)		16.58
Unvested restricted shares at June 30, 2010		173,020		$	22.50

3. Earnings Per Share		Earnings per share has been computed by dividing the net income attributable to Agree Realty Corporation by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding.

		The following is a reconciliation of the denominator of the basic net earnings per common share computation to the denominator of the diluted net earnings per common share computation for each of the periods presented:

	Three Months Ended June 30,
	2010			2009
Weighted average number of common shares outstanding		9,490,849			8,031,363
Unvested restricted stock		(173,020	)		(152,180	)
Weighted average number of common shares outstanding used in basic earnings per share		9,317,829			7,879,183

Weighted average number of common shares outstanding used in diluted earnings per share		8,734,194			7,834,403

4. Recent Accounting Pronouncements		Effective January 1, 2010, companies are required to separately disclose the amounts of significant transfers of assets and liabilities into and out of Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy and the reasons for those transfers. Companies must also develop and disclose their policy for determining when transfers between levels are recognized. In addition companies are required to provide fair value disclosures of each class rather than each major category of assets and liabilities. For fair value measurements using significant other observable inputs (Level 2) or significant unobservable inputs (Level 3), companies are required to disclose the valuation technique and the inputs used in determining fair value for each class of assets and valuation technique and the inputs used in determining fair value for each class of assets and liabilities. This does not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated results of operations or financial position.

		Effective January 1, 2010, companies will be required to separately disclose purchases, sales, issuances and settlements on a gross basis in the reconciliation of recurring Level 3 fair value measurements. The Company does not expect this will have a material effect on its consolidated results of operations or financial position

Agree Realty Corporation

5. Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activity		On January 2, 2009, the Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement for a notional amount of $24,501,280, effective on January 2, 2009 and ending on July 1, 2013. The notional amount decreases over the term to match the outstanding balance of the hedged borrowing. The Company entered into this derivative instrument to hedge against the risk of changes in future cash flows related to changes in interest rates on $24,501,280 of the total variable-rate borrowings outstanding. Under the terms of the interest rate swap agreement, the Company will receive from the counterparty interest on the notional amount based on 1.5% plus one-month LIBOR and will pay to the counterparty a fixed rate of 3.744%. This swap effectively converted $24,501,280 of variable-rate borrowings to fixed-rate borrowings beginning on January 2, 2009 and through July 1, 2013.

		Companies are required to recognize all derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities at fair value on the balance sheet. The Company has designated this derivative instrument as a cash flow hedge. As such, changes in the fair value of the derivative instrument are recorded as a component of other comprehensive income (loss) (“OCI”) for the three months ended June 30, 2010 to the extent of effectiveness. The ineffective portion of the change in fair value of the derivative instrument is recognized in interest expense. For the six months ended June 30, 2010, the Company has determined this derivative instrument to be an effective hedge.

		The Company does not use derivative instruments for trading or other speculative purposes and did not have any other derivative instruments or hedging activities as of June 30, 2010.

6. Fair Value of Financial Instruments		Certain of the Company’s assets and liabilities are disclosed at fair value. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In determining fair value, the Company uses various valuation methods including the market, income and cost approaches. The assumptions used in the application of these valuation methods are developed from the perspective of market participants pricing the asset or liability. Inputs used in the valuation methods can be either readily observable, market corroborated, or generally unobservable inputs. Whenever possible the Company attempts to utilize valuation methods that maximize the uses of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs. Based on the operability of the inputs used in the valuation methods, the Company is required to provide the following information according to the fair value hierarchy. The fair value hierarchy ranks the quality and reliability of the information used to determine fair values. Assets and liabilities measured, reported and/or disclosed at fair value will be classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:

		Level 1 – Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

		Level 2 – Observable market based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data.

		Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data.

		The table below sets forth the Company’s fair value hierarchy for liabilities measured or disclosed at fair value as of June 30, 2010.

	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3
Liability:
Interest rate swap	$	—	$	760,853	$	—
Fixed rate mortgage	$	—	$	—	$	49,090,634
Variable rate mortgage	$	—	$	—	$	22,035,194
Variable rate debt	$	—	$	1,700,000	$	—

Agree Realty Corporation

		The carrying amounts of the Company’s short-term financial instruments, which consist of cash, cash equivalents, receivables, and accounts payable, approximate their fair values. The fair value of the interest rate swap was derived using estimates to settle the interest rate swap agreement, which is based on the net present value of expected future cash flows on each leg of the swap utilizing market-based inputs and discount rates reflecting the risks involved. The fair value of fixed and variable rate mortgages was derived using the present value of future mortgage payments based on estimated current market interest rates. The fair value of variable rate debt is estimated to be equal to the face value of the debt because the interest rates are floating and is considered to approximate fair value.

7. Total Comprehensive Income (Loss)		The following is a reconciliation of net income to comprehensive income attributable to Agree Realty Corporation for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009.

9. Discontinued Operations		In March 2010, the Company completed the sale of a single tenant property for approximately $9.8 million. The property was leased to Borders Group, Inc. and was located in Santa Barbara, California. In addition, the Company has classified a single tenant property located in Ocala, Florida as held for sale as of June 30, 2010. The results of operations for these properties are presented as discontinued operations in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Income. The revenues for the properties were $251,054 and $492,854 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009, respectively, and $71,761 and $322,815 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively. The expenses for the properties were $34,843 and $70,409 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009, respectively, and $14,573 and $49,416 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively.
10. Restricted Cash		Pursuant to an agreement with an unrelated third party, cash held in escrow is for the acquisition of real estate.

11. Purchase Accounting for Acquisitions of Real Estate

Acquired real estate assets have been accounted for using the purchase method of accounting and accordingly, the results of operations are included in the consolidated statements of income from the respective dates of acquisition. The Company allocates the purchase price to (i) land and buildings based on management’s internally prepared estimates and (ii) identifiable intangible assets or liabilities generally consisting of above-market and below-market in-place leases and in-place leases. The Company uses estimates of fair value based on estimated cash flows, using appropriate discount rates, and other valuation techniques, including management’s analysis of comparable properties in the existing portfolio, to allocate the purchase price to acquired tangible and intangible assets.

The estimated fair value of above-market and below-market in-place leases for acquired properties is recorded based on the present value (using an interest rate which reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) of the difference between (i) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to the in-place leases and (ii) management’s estimate of fair market lease rates for the corresponding in-place leases, measured over a period equal to the remaining non-cancelable term of the lease. During 2010, all acquisitions had contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to in-place leases that were consistent with management’s estimate of fair market lease rates, and therefore no intangible assets were recorded related to these allocations.

The aggregate fair value of other intangible assets consisting of in-place, at market leases, is estimated based on internally developed methods to determine the respective property values and are included in Buildings in the consolidated balance sheets. Factors considered by management in their analysis include an estimate of costs to execute similar leases and operating costs saved.

The fair value of intangible assets acquired are amortized to depreciation and amortization on the consolidated statements of income over the remaining term of the respective leases.

Forward-Looking Statements

We have included herein certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). These forward-looking statements represent our expectations, plans and beliefs concerning future events and may be identified by terminology such as “anticipate,” “estimate,” “should,” “expect,” “believe,” “intend” and similar expressions. Although the forward-looking statements made in this report are based on good faith beliefs and our reasonable judgment reflecting current information, certain factors could cause actual results to differ materially from such forward–looking statements, including but not limited to: the ongoing U.S. recession, the existing global credit and financial crisis and other changes in general economic, financial and real estate market conditions; risks that our acquisition and development projects will fail to perform as expected; financing risks, such as the inability to obtain debt or equity financing on favorable terms or at all; the level and volatility of interest rates; loss or bankruptcy of one or more of our major retail tenants; a failure of our properties to generate additional income to offset increases in operating expenses; and other factors discussed in Part II, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this report and our other reports furnished or filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) including our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009. Given these uncertainties, you should not place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements. Except as required by law, we assume no obligation to update these forward–looking statements, even if new information becomes available in the future.

Overview

Agree Realty Corporation is a fully-integrated, self-administered and self-managed real estate investment trust (“REIT”) focused primarily on the ownership, development, acquisition and management of retail properties net leased to national tenants. In this report, the terms “Company,” “we,” “our” and “us” and similar terms refer to Agree Realty Corporation and its subsidiaries as the context may require. We were formed in December 1993 to continue and expand the business founded in 1971 by our current Chief Executive Officer and Chairman, Richard Agree. We specialize in developing retail properties for national tenants who have executed long-term net leases prior to the commencement of construction. As of June 30, 2010, approximately 89% of our annualized base rent was derived from national tenants and approximately 67% of our annualized base rent was derived from our top three tenants: Walgreen Co. (“Walgreens”) – 29%; Borders Group, Inc. (“Borders”) – 27% and Kmart Corporation – 11%. All of our freestanding property tenants and the majority of our community shopping center tenants have triple-net leases, which require the tenant to be responsible for property operating expenses, including property taxes, insurance and maintenance. We believe this strategy provides a generally consistent source of income and cash for distributions.

As of June 30, 2010, our portfolio consisted of 74 properties, located in 15 states containing an aggregate of approximately 3.5 million square feet of gross leasable area (“GLA”). As of June 30, 2010, our portfolio included 62 freestanding net leased properties and 12 community shopping centers that were 99.2% leased in aggregate with a weighted average lease term of approximately 10.8 years remaining. During the period from July 1, 2010 to December 31, 2011 we have 27 leases that are scheduled to expire assuming that none of the tenants exercise renewal options or terminate their leases prior to the contractual expiration date. These leases represent 210,169 square feet of GLA and $1,540,126 of annualized base rent.

We expect to continue to grow our asset base through the development of retail properties that are pre-leased on a long-term basis to national tenants. We have focused on development because we believe, based on the historical returns we have been able to achieve, it generally has provided us a higher return on investment than the acquisition of similarly located properties. Since our initial public offering in 1994, we have developed 59 of our 74 properties, including 47 of our 60 freestanding properties and all 12 of our community shopping centers. As of June 30, 2010, the properties that we developed accounted for 82.7% of our annualized base rent. We expect to continue to expand our existing tenant relationships and diversify our tenant base to include other quality national tenants through the development and acquisition of net leased properties.

Agree Realty Corporation

On March 31, 2010, we completed the sale of our Borders superstore located in Santa Barbara, California. The property was sold to an unrelated party for $9.8 million. The majority of the proceeds from the sale were used to acquire two CVS Drug stores located in Atchison, Kansas and Johnstown, Ohio. We expect to utilize the remaining proceeds of approximately $2.1 million from this transaction to acquire an additional retail property and the transactions to qualify under Section 1031 of the Code.

Our assets are held by, and all operations are conducted through, Agree Limited Partnership (the “Operating Partnership”), of which we are the sole general partner and held a 96.44% and 95.93% interest as of June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively. We are operating so as to qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes.

The following should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements of Agree Realty Corporation, including the respective notes thereto, which are included in this Form 10-Q.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Effective January 1, 2010, companies are required to separately disclose the amounts of significant transfers of assets and liabilities into and out of Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy and the reasons for those transfers. Companies must also develop and disclose their policy for determining when transfers between levels are recognized. In addition companies are required to provide fair value disclosures of each class rather than each major category of assets and liabilities. For fair value measurements using significant other observable inputs (Level 2) or significant unobservable inputs (Level 3), companies are required to disclose the valuation technique and the inputs used in determining fair value for each class of assets and valuation technique and the inputs used in determining fair value for each class of assets and liabilities. This does not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated results of operations or financial position.

Effective January 1, 2010, companies will be required to separately disclose purchases, sales, issuances and settlements on a gross basis in the reconciliation of recurring Level 3 fair value measurements. The Company does not expect this will have a material effect on its consolidated results of operations or financial position.

Critical Accounting Policies

Critical accounting policies are those that are both significant to the overall presentation of our financial condition and results of operations and require management to make difficult, complex or subjective judgments. For example, significant estimates and assumptions have been made with respect to revenue recognition, capitalization of costs related to real estate investments, potential impairment of real estate investments, operating cost reimbursements, and taxable income.

Minimum rental income attributable to leases is recorded when due from tenants. Certain leases provide for additional percentage rents based on tenants’ sales volumes. These percentage rents are recognized when determinable by us. In addition, leases for certain tenants contain rent escalations and/or free rent during the first several months of the lease term; however, such amounts are not material.

Real estate assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. All costs related to planning, development and construction of buildings prior to the date they become operational, including interest and real estate taxes during the construction period, are capitalized for financial reporting purposes and recorded as property under development until construction has been completed. The viability of all projects under construction or development is regularly evaluated under applicable accounting requirements, including requirements relating to abandonment of assets or changes in use. To the extent a project, or individual components of the project, are no longer considered to have value, the related capitalized costs are charged against operations. Subsequent to the completion of construction, expenditures for property maintenance are charged to operations as incurred, while significant renovations are capitalized. Depreciation of the buildings is recorded in accordance with the straight-line method using an estimated useful life of 40 years.

Agree Realty Corporation

We evaluate real estate for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable through estimated undiscounted future cash flows from the use of these assets. When any such impairment exists, the related assets will be written down to fair value and such excess carrying value is charged to income. The expected cash flows of a project are dependent on estimates and other factors subject to change, including (1) changes in the national, regional, and/or local economic climates, (2) competition from other shopping centers, stores, clubs, mailings, and the internet, (3) increases in operating costs, (4) bankruptcy and/or other changes in the condition of third parties, including tenants, (5) expected holding period, and (6) availability of credit. These factors could cause our expected future cash flows from a project to change, and, as a result, an impairment could be considered to have occurred.

Substantially all of our leases contain provisions requiring tenants to pay as additional rent a proportionate share of operating expenses (“operating cost reimbursements”) including real estate taxes, repairs and maintenance and insurance. The related revenue from tenant billings is recognized in the same period the expense is recorded.

We have elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), commencing with our taxable year ended December 31, 1994. As a result, we are not subject to federal income taxes to the extent that we distribute annually at least 90% of our REIT taxable income to our stockholders and satisfy certain other requirements defined in the Code.

We have established taxable REIT subsidiaries (“TRS”) pursuant to the provisions of the REIT Modernization Act. Our TRS entities are able to engage in activities resulting in income that previously would have been disqualified from being eligible REIT income under the federal income tax regulations. As a result, certain of our activities which occur within our TRS entities are subject to federal and state income taxes. As of June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, we had accrued a deferred income tax amount of $705,000, in addition we have recognized income tax expense of $100,000 and $62,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and year ended December 31, 2009, respectively.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our principal demands for liquidity are operations, distributions to our stockholders, debt repayment, development of new properties, redevelopment of existing properties and property acquisitions. We intend to meet our short-term liquidity requirements, including capital expenditures related to the leasing and improvement of our properties, through cash flow provided by operations and our $55 million credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) and our $5 million line of credit (the “Line of Credit”). We believe that adequate cash flow will be available to fund our operations and pay dividends in accordance with REIT requirements for at least the next 12 months. We may obtain additional funds for future developments or acquisitions through other borrowings or the issuance of additional shares of common stock. We believe that these financing sources will enable us to generate funds sufficient to meet both our short-term and long-term capital needs.

We intend to maintain a ratio of total indebtedness (including construction or acquisition financing) to market capitalization of 65% or less. Nevertheless, we may operate with debt levels which are in excess of 65% of market capitalization for extended periods of time. At June 30, 2010, our ratio of indebtedness to market capitalization was approximately 32%.

During the quarter ended June 30, 2010, we declared a quarterly dividend of $0.51 per share. We paid the dividend on July 13, 2010 to holders of record on June 30, 2010.

Our cash flows from operations decreased $685,000 to $10,950,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2010, compared to $11,635,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2009. Cash used in investing activities decreased $2,230,000 to $3,899,000 in 2010, compared to $6,129,000 in 2009. Cash used in financing activities increased $1,472,000 to $7,381,000 in 2010, compared to $5,909,000 in 2009.

As of June 30, 2010, we had total mortgage indebtedness of $73,574,819. Of this total mortgage indebtedness, $49,658,400 is fixed rate, self-amortizing debt with a weighted average interest rate of 6.56%. The remaining mortgage debt of $23,916,419 bears interest at 150 basis points over LIBOR or 1.84% as of June 30, 2010 and has a maturity date of July 14, 2013, which can be extended at our option for two additional years. In January 2009, we entered into an interest rate swap agreement that fixes the interest rate during the initial term of the variable-interest mortgage at 3.744%.

In addition, the Operating Partnership has in place the $55 million Credit Facility with Bank of America, as the agent, which is guaranteed by us. The Credit Facility was extended in January 2009 and now matures in November 2011. Advances under the Credit Facility bear interest within a range of one-month to 12-month LIBOR plus 100 basis points to 150 basis points or the lender’s prime rate, at our option, based on certain factors such as the ratio of our indebtedness to the capital value of our properties. The Credit Facility generally is used to fund property acquisitions and development activities. As of June 30, 2010, no amounts were outstanding under the Credit Facility.

We also have in place the $5 million Line of Credit that was extended in October 2009 and now matures in November 2011. The Line of Credit bears interest at the lender’s prime rate less 75 basis points or 150 basis points in excess of the one-month to 12-month LIBOR rate, at our option. The purpose of the Line of Credit is generally to provide working capital and fund land options and start-up costs associated with new projects. As of June 30, 2010, $1,700,000 was outstanding under the Line of Credit bearing a weighted average interest rate of 2.50%.

On April 16, 2010, we completed a secondary offering of 1,495,000 shares of common stock. The offering, which included the exercise of the over-allotment option by the underwriter, raised approximately $31.1 million. The proceeds from the offering were used to pay down amounts outstanding under our credit facilities.

We plan to begin construction of additional pre-leased developments and may acquire additional properties, which will initially be financed by the Credit Facility and Line of Credit. We will periodically refinance short-term construction and acquisition financing with long-term debt and/or equity to the extent available.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not engage in any off-balance sheet arrangements with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, such as structured finance or special purpose entities.

Inflation

Our leases generally contain provisions designed to mitigate the adverse impact of inflation on net income. These provisions include clauses enabling us to pass through to tenants certain operating costs, including real estate taxes, common area maintenance, utilities and insurance, thereby reducing our exposure to increases in costs and operating expenses resulting from inflation. Certain of our leases contain clauses enabling us to receive percentage rents based on tenants' gross sales, which generally increase as prices rise, and, in certain cases, escalation clauses, which generally increase rental rates during the terms of the leases. In addition, expiring tenant leases permit us to seek increased rents upon re-lease at market rates if rents are below the then existing market rates.

Funds from Operations

Funds from Operations (“FFO”) is defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, Inc. (“NAREIT”) to mean net income computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of property, plus real estate related depreciation and amortization and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Management uses FFO as a supplemental measure to conduct and evaluate our business because there are certain limitations associated with using GAAP net income by itself as the primary measure of our operating performance. Historical cost accounting for real estate assets in accordance with GAAP implicitly assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values instead have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, management believes that the presentation of operating results for real estate companies that use historical cost accounting is insufficient by itself.

FFO should not be considered as an alternative to net income as the primary indicator of our operating performance or as an alternative to cash flow as a measure of liquidity. Further, while we adhere to the NAREIT definition of FFO, our presentation of FFO is not necessarily comparable to similarly titled measures of other REITs due to the fact that not all REITs use the same definition.

ITEM 3.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We are exposed to interest rate risk primarily through borrowing activities. There is inherent roll-over risk for borrowings as they mature and are renewed at current market rates. The extent of this risk is not quantifiable or predictable because of the variability of future interest rates and our future financing requirements. Our interest rate risk is monitored using a variety of techniques. The table below presents the principal payments (in thousands) and the weighted average interest rates on outstanding debt, by year of expected maturity, to evaluate the expected cash flows and sensitivity to interest rate changes.

Other variable rate debt					—		$	1,700			—			—			—		$	1,700
Average interest rate					—			2.50	%		—			—			—			—

The fair value (in thousands) is estimated at $49,091, $22,035 and $1,700 for fixed rate mortgages, variable rate mortgage and other variable rate debt, respectively, as of June 30, 2010.

The table above incorporates those exposures that exist as of June 30, 2010; it does not consider those exposures or positions, which could arise after that date. As a result, our ultimate realized gain or loss with respect to interest rate fluctuations will depend on the exposures that arise during the period and interest rates.

We entered into an interest rate swap agreement to hedge interest rates on $24.5 million in variable-rate borrowings outstanding. Under the terms of the interest rate swap agreement, we will receive from the counterparty interest on the notional amount based on 1.5% plus one-month LIBOR and will pay to the counterparty a fixed rate of 3.744%. This swap effectively converted $24.5 million of variable-rate borrowings to fixed-rate borrowings. As of June 30, 2010, the interest rate swap was valued at $760,853. We do not use derivative instruments for trading or other speculative purposes and we did not have any other derivative instruments or hedging activities as of June 30, 2010.

As of June 30, 2010, a 100 basis point increase in interest rates on the portion of our debt bearing interest at variable rates would result in an annual increase in interest expense of approximately $17,000.
