Represents the change in fair value of the net asset described in the following sentences. We own both a fee interest and a ground leasehold interest in a 2,200 site property. The ground lease provides a purchase option to the lessee and a put option to the lessor. Either option may be exercised upon the death of the fee holder. We are the beneficiary of an escrow funded by the seller consisting of approximately 167,400 shares of our common stock as of September 30, 2013. The escrow was established to protect us from future scheduled ground lease payment increases as well as scheduled increases in the option purchase price over time. The current fair value estimate of the escrow is approximately $4.5 million. We revalue the asset based on the market value of our common stock as of each reporting date and recognize in earnings any increase or decrease in fair value of the escrow.

We are required by GAAP to defer, over the estimated customer life, recognition of non-refundable upfront payments from the entry of right-to-use contracts and upgrade sales. The customer life is currently estimated to range from one to 31 years and is based upon our experience operating the membership platform since 2008 as well as historical attrition rates provided to us by the prior operator. The amount shown represents the deferral of a substantial portion of current period upgrade sales, offset by amortization of prior period sales.

2.

We are required by GAAP to defer recognition of commissions paid related to the entry of right-to-use contracts. The deferred commissions will be amortized using the same method as used for the related non-refundable upfront payments from the entry of right-to-use contracts and upgrade sales. The amount shown represents the deferral of a substantial portion of current period commissions on those contracts, offset by the amortization of prior period commissions.
