                                    EXHIBIT A


ITEM 6.  OWNERSHIP.

Teachers Insurance and Annuity Association of America ("TIAA") held shares of
the Issuer's common stock for the benefit of TIAA Real Estate Account, a
separate account of TIAA. In addition, TIAA, as the parent of two registered
investment advisers, may have been deemed to have indirect voting or investment
discretion over shares of the Issuer's common stock that were beneficially owned
by five registered investment companies--College Retirement Equities Fund
("CREF"), TIAA-CREF Institutional Mutual Funds ("Institutional Funds"),
TIAA-CREF Mutual Funds ("Mutual Funds"), TIAA-CREF Life Funds ("Life Funds") and
TIAA Separate Account VA-1 ("VA-1"), as well as the TIAA-CREF Asset Management
Commingled Funds Trust I ("TCAM Funds")--whose investment advisers are TIAA-CREF
Investment Management, LLC (in the case of CREF) and Teachers Advisors, Inc. (in
the case of Institutional Funds, Mutual Funds, Life Funds, VA-1 and TCAM Funds),
both of which are wholly owned subsidiaries of TIAA. TIAA reported the combined
holdings of these entities for the purpose of administrative convenience. The
shares were acquired in the ordinary course of business, and not with the
purpose or effect of changing or influencing control of the Issuer. The filing
of this statement should not be construed as an admission that TIAA is, for the
purposes of Sections 13 or 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the
beneficial owner of these shares.
