CONDENSED NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Description of the Business
|
Public Storage (referred to herein as “the Company”, “we”, “us”, or “our”), a Maryland real estate investment trust, was organized in 1980. Our principal business activities include the acquisition, development, ownership and operation of self-storage facilities which offer storage spaces for lease, generally on a month-to-month basis, for personal and business use.
At September 30, 2012, we had direct and indirect equity interests in 2,069 self-storage facilities (with approximately 132 million net rentable square feet) located in 38 states in the U.S. operating under the “Public Storage” name. We also own one self-storage facility in London, England and we have a 49% interest in Shurgard Europe, which owns 188 self-storage facilities (with approximately 10.1 million net rentable square feet) located in seven Western European countries, all operating under the “Shurgard” name. We also have direct and indirect equity interests in approximately 29.8 million net rentable square feet of commercial space located in 11 states in the U.S. primarily owned and operated by PS Business Parks, Inc. (“PSB”) under the “PS Business Parks” name. At September 30, 2012, we have an approximate 41% interest in PSB.
Disclosures of number or square footage of properties, as well as number of or coverage of tenant reinsurance policies are unaudited and outside the scope of our independent registered public accounting firm’s review of our financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
|
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements were prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) as defined in the Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification (the “Codification”), including guidance with respect to interim financial information, and in conformity with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. While they do not include all of the disclosures required by GAAP for complete financial statements, we believe that we have included all adjustments (consisting of normal and recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation. Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2012 due to seasonality and other factors. These interim financial statements should be read together with the audited financial statements and related notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.
Certain amounts previously reported in our December 31, 2011 and September 30, 2011 financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the September 30, 2012 presentation, as a result of discontinued operations.
Consolidation and Equity Method of Accounting
The Codification stipulates generally that entities with insufficient equity to finance their activities without additional subordinated financial support provided by other parties, or where the equity holders as a group do not have a controlling financial interest, are considered Variable Interest Entities (“VIE”). We have determined that we have no investments in any VIEs.
We consolidate all entities that we control (these entities, for the period in which the reference applies, are referred to collectively as the “Subsidiaries”), and we eliminate intercompany transactions and balances. We account for our investments in entities that we do not control, but we have significant influence over, using the equity method of accounting (these entities, for the periods in which the reference applies, are referred to collectively as the “Unconsolidated Real Estate Entities”). When we obtain control of entities in which we already own a partial equity interest, we record a gain representing the differential between the book value and fair value of our preexisting equity interest. We then commence consolidating the assets, liabilities, and any noncontrolling interests of the entity. All such changes in consolidation status are reflected prospectively.
PUBLIC STORAGE
CONDENSED NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
September 30, 2012
(Unaudited)
When we are the general partner of a partnership, we assume that we control the partnership, unless the third-party limited partners can dissolve the partnership or otherwise remove us as general partner without cause, or if the limited partners have the right to participate in substantive decisions of the partnership.
Collectively, at September 30, 2012, the Company and the Subsidiaries own 2,055 self-storage facilities in the U.S., one self-storage facility in London, England and six commercial facilities in the U.S. At September 30, 2012, the Unconsolidated Real Estate Entities are comprised of PSB, Shurgard Europe, as well as limited partnerships that own an aggregate of 14 self-storage facilities in the U.S. with 0.8 million net rentable square feet (these limited partnerships, for the periods in which the reference applies, are referred to as the “Other Investments”).
Use of Estimates
The financial statements and accompanying notes reflect our estimates and assumptions. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Income Taxes
We have elected to be treated as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”), as defined in the Internal Revenue Code. As a REIT, we do not incur federal income tax if we distribute 100% of our REIT taxable income (generally, net rents and gains from real property, dividends, and interest) each year, and if we meet certain organizational and operational rules. We believe we will meet these REIT requirements in 2012, and that we have met them for all other periods presented herein. Accordingly, we have recorded no federal income tax expense related to our REIT taxable income.
Our merchandise and tenant reinsurance operations are subject to corporate income tax, and such taxes are included in ancillary cost of operations. We also incur income and other taxes in certain states, which are included in general and administrative expense.
We recognize tax benefits of income tax positions that are subject to audit only if we believe it is more likely than not that the position would be sustained (including the impact of appeals, as applicable), assuming the relevant taxing authorities had full knowledge of the relevant facts and circumstances of our positions. As of September 30, 2012, we had no tax benefits that were not recognized.
Real Estate Facilities
Real estate facilities are recorded at cost. We capitalize all costs incurred to develop, construct, renovate and improve properties, including interest and property taxes incurred during the construction period. We expense internal and external transaction costs associated with acquisitions or dispositions of real estate and equity investments as incurred. We expense repairs and maintenance costs as incurred. We depreciate buildings and improvements on a straight-line basis over estimated useful lives ranging generally between 5 to 25 years.
PUBLIC STORAGE
CONDENSED NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
September 30, 2012
(Unaudited)
We account for acquisitions of interests in operating self-storage facilities, including the consolidation of entities where we obtain control other than by acquiring interests, under the provisions of Codification Section 805, “Business Combinations.” We allocate the net acquisition cost (consisting of the fair value of our existing investment, plus any cash paid to third parties for their interests and the fair value of any liabilities assumed) to the underlying land, buildings, identified intangible assets, and remaining noncontrolling interests based upon their respective individual estimated fair values. Any difference between the net acquisition cost and the estimated fair value of the net tangible and intangible assets acquired is recorded as goodwill.
Other Assets
Other assets primarily consist of prepaid expenses, accounts receivable, and restricted cash.
Accrued and Other Liabilities
Accrued and other liabilities consist primarily of trade payables, property tax accruals, tenant prepayments of rents, accrued interest payable, accrued payroll, accrued tenant reinsurance losses, casualty losses, and contingent loss accruals which are accrued when probable and estimable. We disclose the nature of significant unaccrued losses that are reasonably possible of occurring and, if estimable, a range of exposure.
Cash Equivalents and Marketable Securities
We classify as cash equivalents all highly liquid financial instruments such as money market funds with daily liquidity and a rating of at least AAA by Standard and Poor’s, or investment grade (rated A1 by Standard and Poor’s) short-term commercial paper or treasury securities with remaining maturities of three months or less at the date of acquisition. Cash and cash equivalents which are restricted from general corporate use are included in other assets.
Commercial paper with a remaining maturity of more than three months when acquired is included in marketable securities. When at acquisition we have the positive intent and ability to hold these securities to maturity (investments that are “Held to Maturity”), the securities are stated at amortized cost and interest is recorded using the effective interest method.
Fair Value Accounting
As used herein, the term “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. We prioritize the inputs used in measuring fair value based upon a three-tier fair value hierarchy described in Codification Section 820-10-35.
We believe that, during all periods presented, the carrying values approximate the fair values of our cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities, other assets, and accrued and other liabilities, based upon our evaluation of the underlying characteristics, market data, and short maturity of these financial instruments, which involved considerable judgment. The estimated fair values are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that could be realized in current market exchanges. The characteristics of these financial instruments, market data, and other comparative metrics utilized in determining these fair values are “Level 2” inputs as the term is defined in Codification Section 820-10-35-47.
We use significant judgment to estimate fair values in recording our business combinations, to evaluate real estate, goodwill, and other intangible assets for impairment, and to determine the fair values of our notes payable and noncontrolling interests in subsidiaries. In estimating fair values, we consider significant unobservable inputs such as market prices of land, capitalization rates for real estate facilities, earnings multiples, projected levels of earnings, costs of construction, functional depreciation, and estimated market interest rates for debt securities with a similar time to maturity and credit quality, which are “Level 3” inputs as the term is defined in Codification Section 820-10-35-52. We believe that, during all periods presented, the carrying values approximate the fair values of our notes payable.

Currency and Credit Risk
Financial assets that are exposed to credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, loans receivable, and restricted cash. At September 30, 2012, due primarily to our investment in and loan receivable from Shurgard Europe, our operations and financial position are affected by fluctuations in currency exchange rates between the Euro, and to a lesser extent, other European currencies, against the U.S. Dollar.
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
Intangible assets are comprised of goodwill, acquired tenants in place, leasehold interests in land, and the “Shurgard” tradename.
Goodwill totaled $174.6 million at September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011. Goodwill has an indeterminate life and is not amortized.
Acquired tenants in place and leasehold interests in land are finite-lived and are amortized relative to the benefit of the tenants in place or the land lease expense to each period. At September 30, 2012, these intangibles have a net book value of $16.7 million ($16.4 million at December 31, 2011). Accumulated amortization totaled $23.2 million at September 30, 2012 ($24.1 million at December 31, 2011), and amortization expense of $7.3 million and $9.2 million was recorded for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, these intangibles were increased by (i) $6.7 million in connection with the acquisition of self-storage facilities (Note 3) and (ii) $0.9 million in connection with the consolidation of three facilities we previously accounted for under the equity method (Note 4).
The “Shurgard” tradename, which is used by Shurgard Europe pursuant to a licensing agreement, has a book value of $18.8 million at September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011. This asset has an indefinite life and, accordingly, is not amortized.
Evaluation of Asset Impairment
Goodwill impairment is evaluated annually by reporting unit. No impairment of goodwill or the Shurgard trade name was identified in our annual evaluation at December 31, 2011, nor were there any indicators of impairment at September 30, 2012. We evaluate our real estate and property related intangibles for impairment on a quarterly basis. If any indicators of impairment are noted, we estimate future undiscounted cash flows to be received from the use of the asset and, if such future undiscounted cash flows are less than carrying value, an impairment charge is recorded for the excess of carrying value over the assets’ estimated fair value. Long-lived assets which we expect to sell or otherwise dispose of prior to the end of their estimated useful lives are stated at the lower of their net realizable value (estimated fair value less cost to sell) or their carrying value.

Revenue and Expense Recognition
Rental income, which is generally earned pursuant to month-to-month leases for storage space, as well as late charges and administrative fees, are recognized as earned. Promotional discounts reduce rental income over the promotional period. Ancillary revenues and interest and other income are recognized when earned. Equity in earnings of unconsolidated real estate entities represents our pro-rata share of the earnings of the Unconsolidated Real Estate Entities.
We accrue for property tax expense based upon actual amounts billed and, in some circumstances, estimates and historical trends when bills or assessments have not been received from the taxing authorities or such bills and assessments are in dispute. If these estimates are incorrect, the timing and amount of expense recognition could be incorrect. Cost of operations, general and administrative expense, interest expense, as well as television, yellow page, and other advertising expenditures are expensed as incurred.
Foreign Currency Exchange Translation
The local currency (primarily the Euro) is the functional currency for our interests in foreign operations. The related amounts on our balance sheets are translated into U.S. Dollars at the exchange rates at the respective financial statement date, while amounts on our statements of income are translated at the average exchange rates during the respective period. The Euro was translated at exchange rates of approximately 1.286 U.S. Dollars per Euro at September 30, 2012 (1.295 at December 31, 2011), and average exchange rates of 1.251 and 1.415 for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, and average exchange rates of 1.282 and 1.406 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Cumulative translation adjustments, to the extent not included in cumulative net income, are included in equity as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).
Comprehensive Income (Loss)
Total comprehensive income for a period represents net income, adjusted for changes in other comprehensive income (loss) for the applicable period, as set forth on our statements of comprehensive income. The aggregate foreign currency exchange gains and losses reflected on our statements of comprehensive income are comprised primarily of foreign currency exchange gains and losses on our investment in, and loan receivable from, Shurgard Europe.
Discontinued Operations
The net income of real estate facilities or other businesses that have been sold or otherwise disposed of, or that we plan to sell or dispose of within the next year are presented on our statement of income for all periods as “discontinued operations.” In addition to the revenues and expenses of disposed self-storage facilities, discontinued operations includes $11.7 million in gains on disposition of real estate facilities for each of the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2012 and $1.7 million and $1.4 million in net gains on disposition of real estate facilities for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, respectively.
Net Income per Common Share
Net income is first allocated to each of our noncontrolling interests based upon their respective share of the net income of the Subsidiaries, and to our cumulative preferred shares based upon the dividends declared or accumulated during the period.

CONDENSED NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
September 30, 2012
(Unaudited)
When our cumulative preferred shares are called for redemption, additional income is allocated to the security to the extent the redemption cost is greater than the related original net issuance proceeds. These allocations are referred to hereinafter as “EITF D-42 allocations.” The remaining net income is allocated to our common shares and our restricted share units based upon the dividends declared during the period, combined with participation rights in undistributed earnings.
Basic net income per share, basic net income (loss) from discontinued operations per share, and basic net income from continuing operations per share are computed using the weighted average common shares outstanding. Diluted net income per share, diluted net income (loss) from discontinued operations per share, and diluted net income from continuing operations per share are computed using the weighted average common shares outstanding, adjusted for the impact, if dilutive, of stock options outstanding (Note 10).
The following table reflects the components of the calculations of our basic and diluted net income per share, basic and diluted net income (loss) from discontinued operations per share, and basic and diluted net income from continuing operations per share which are not already otherwise set forth on the face of our statements of income:

During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, we began to consolidate a limited partnership that we had previously accounted for using the equity method (see Note 4). The three self-storage facilities (183,000 net rentable square feet) owned by this entity, having an aggregate fair market value of $10.4 million, have been added to our operating facilities.

Investment in PSB
PSB is a REIT traded on the New York Stock Exchange, and controls an operating partnership. We have an approximate 41% common equity interest in PSB as of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively, comprised of our ownership of 5,801,606 shares of PSB’s common stock and 7,305,355 limited partnership units in the operating partnership. The limited partnership units are convertible at our option, subject to certain conditions, on a one-for-one basis into PSB common stock. Based upon the closing price at September 30, 2012 ($66.82 per share of PSB common stock), the shares and units we own had a market value of approximately $875.8 million.

Investment in Shurgard Europe
For all periods presented, we had a 49% equity investment in Shurgard Europe. On March 2, 2011, Shurgard Europe acquired the 80% interests it did not own in two joint ventures that owned 72 self-storage facilities located in Europe operating under the “Shurgard” name. We and our joint venture partner provided the funding for this acquisition (See Note 5).
Changes in foreign currency exchange rates caused our investment in Shurgard Europe to increase approximately $6.7 million and $0.3 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
We receive interest on the loans due from Shurgard Europe and trademark license fees, of which 49% is classified as equity in earnings of unconsolidated real estate entities and the remaining 51% as interest and other income, as set forth in the following table:

Other Investments
At September 30, 2012, the “Other Investments” include an aggregate common equity ownership of approximately 26% in various limited partnerships that collectively own 14 self-storage facilities.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, we began to consolidate a limited partnership due to a change in control. As a result, we recorded a gain of $1.3 million representing the difference between the aggregate fair value of our existing investment ($3.1 million) and the book value ($1.8 million). The $3.1 million fair value of our existing investment was allocated to real estate facilities ($10.4 million), intangible assets ($0.9 million), and permanent noncontrolling interests ($8.2 million).

Loans Receivable from Unconsolidated Real Estate Entities
|
As of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, we had a Euro-denominated loan receivable from Shurgard Europe with a balance of €311.0 million at both periods ($399.8 million at September 30, 2012 and $402.7 million at December 31, 2011), which bears interest at a fixed rate of 9.0% per annum and matures February 15, 2015. Because we expect repayment of this loan in the foreseeable future, foreign exchange rate gains or losses due to changes in exchange rates between the Euro and the U.S. Dollar are recognized in income, under “foreign currency gain.” We have received a total of €80.9 million in principal repayments on this loan since its inception on March 31, 2008.
On February 9, 2011, we loaned PSB $121.0 million. The loan had a six-month term and bore interest at a rate of three-month LIBOR plus 0.85% (1.13% per annum for the term of the loan). For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, we recorded interest income of approximately $0.1 million and $0.7 million, respectively, related to the loan. The loan was repaid in 2011.
On February 28, 2011, we provided bridge financing to Shurgard Europe totaling $237.9 million, which it used to acquire its partner’s 80% interests in two affiliated joint ventures on March 2, 2011. This loan bore interest at a fixed rate of 7.0% per annum and was denominated in U.S. Dollars. On June 15, 2011, our joint venture partner in Shurgard Europe effectively purchased 51% of the loan from us for $121.3 million and then the entire loan balance was effectively exchanged for an equity interest in Shurgard Europe.
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, we recorded interest income (representing 51% of the aggregate interest received; see Note 4) on the Euro-denominated loan to Shurgard Europe of approximately $4.6 million and $14.0 million, respectively, as compared to $5.9 million and $20.2 million for the same periods in 2011. During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, we received $1.5 million in other income from our joint venture partner for our interim funding of its 51% pro rata share of Shurgard Europe’s cost to acquire the interests.
We believe that the interest rate on the loan to Shurgard Europe approximates the market rate for loans with similar credit characteristics and tenor, and that the fair value of the loan approximates book value. In evaluating the fair value and appropriate market rate of the loan, we considered that Shurgard Europe has sufficient operating cash flow, liquidity and collateral, and we have sufficient creditor rights such that credit risk is mitigated. The characteristics of the loan to Shurgard Europe and comparative metrics utilized in our evaluation represent significant unobservable inputs, which are “Level 3” inputs as the term is utilized in Codification Section 820-10-35-52.

Line of Credit and Notes Payable
|
We have a $300 million revolving line of credit (the “Credit Facility”) that expires on March 21, 2017. Amounts drawn on the Credit Facility bear an annual interest rate ranging from LIBOR plus 0.925% to LIBOR plus 1.850% depending on our credit ratings (LIBOR plus 0.950% at September 30, 2012). In addition, we are required to pay a quarterly facility fee ranging from 0.125% per annum to 0.400% per annum depending on our credit ratings (0.125% per annum at September 30, 2012). We had no outstanding borrowings on our Credit Facility at September 30, 2012 or at November 8, 2012. We had undrawn standby letters of credit, which reduce our borrowing capacity with respect to the Credit Facility by the amount of the letters of credit, totaling $15.3 million at September 30, 2012 ($18.4 million at December 31, 2011).

Substantially all of our debt was assumed in connection with the acquisition of real estate. An initial premium or discount is established for any difference between the stated note balance and estimated fair value of the debt assumed. This initial premium or discount is amortized over the remaining term of the debt using the effective interest method.
The notes payable and Credit Facility have various customary restrictive covenants, all of which we were in compliance with at September 30, 2012.

Noncontrolling Interests
|
Third party interests in the net assets of the Subsidiaries that can require us to redeem their interests, other than pursuant to a liquidation, are presented at estimated fair value as “Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests.” We estimate fair value by applying the liquidation provisions of the governing documents to our estimate of the fair value of the underlying net assets (principally real estate assets). Adjustments recorded due to changes in the fair value of these interests are recorded against retained earnings. All other noncontrolling interests are presented as a component of equity, “Equity of Permanent Noncontrolling Interests.”

Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests
At December 31, 2011, the Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests represented ownership interests in Subsidiaries that own 14 self-storage facilities. During the three months ended March 31, 2012, we acquired all the outstanding Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests for $19.9 million in cash, of which $11.9 million was recorded as a reduction to redeemable noncontrolling interests and $8.0 million was recorded as a reduction to paid-in capital. During the three months ended September 30, 2011, we allocated a total of $0.2 million of income to these interests. During the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, we allocated a total of $0.2 million and $0.7 million, respectively, of income to these interests and paid distributions to these interests totaling $0.7 million and $0.9 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
Permanent Noncontrolling Interests
At September 30, 2012, the Permanent Noncontrolling Interests have ownership interests in Subsidiaries that own 15 self-storage facilities and own 231,978 partnership units (the “Convertible Partnership Units”) in a subsidiary that are convertible on a one-for-one basis (subject to certain limitations) into common shares of the Company at the option of the unitholder. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, we allocated a total of $0.9 million and $2.3 million, respectively, in income to our Permanent Noncontrolling Interests. During the same periods in 2011, we allocated a total of $3.1 million and $11.6 million, respectively, in income to our Permanent Noncontrolling Interests. During the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, we paid $3.6 million and $11.4 million, respectively, in distributions to our Permanent Noncontrolling Interests.
As described more fully in Note 4, we increased Permanent Noncontrolling Interests during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 a total of $8.2 million in connection with consolidating a partnership.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, we acquired additional interests in the Subsidiaries for $1.0 million in cash, of which $0.1 million was recorded as a reduction to permanent noncontrolling interests and the remainder as a reduction to paid-in capital.

The holders of our Cumulative Preferred Shares have general preference rights with respect to liquidation and quarterly distributions. Except under certain conditions and as noted below, holders of the Cumulative Preferred Shares will not be entitled to vote on most matters. In the event of a cumulative arrearage equal to six quarterly dividends, holders of all outstanding series of preferred shares (voting as a single class without regard to series) will have the right to elect two additional members to serve on our Board of Trustees until the arrearage has been cured. At September 30, 2012, there were no dividends in arrears.
Except under certain conditions relating to the Company’s qualification as a REIT, the Cumulative Preferred Shares are not redeemable prior to the dates indicated on the table above. On or after the respective dates, each of the series of Cumulative Preferred Shares will be redeemable, at the option of the Company, in whole or in part, at $25.00 per share (or depositary share as the case may be), plus accrued and unpaid dividends. Holders of the Cumulative Preferred Shares do not have the right to require the Company to redeem such shares.
Upon issuance of our Cumulative Preferred Shares, we classify the liquidation value as preferred equity on our balance sheet with any issuance costs recorded as a reduction to paid-in capital.
During the first nine months of 2012, we issued an aggregate 68.2 million depositary shares, each representing 1/1,000 of our of our Series S, Series T, Series U, and Series V Cumulative Preferred Shares, at an issuance price of $25 per depositary share, for a total of $1.7 billion in gross proceeds, and we incurred an aggregate of $53.5 million in issuance costs.

The Hughes Family owns approximately 16.0% of our common shares outstanding at September 30, 2012.
The Hughes Family has ownership interests in, and operates, approximately 53 self-storage facilities in Canada (“PS Canada”) using the “Public Storage” brand name pursuant to a non-exclusive, royalty-free trademark license agreement with the Company. We currently do not own any interests in these facilities nor do we own any facilities in Canada. We have a right of first refusal to acquire the stock or assets of the corporation that manages the 53 self-storage facilities in Canada, if the Hughes Family or the corporation agrees to sell them. However, we have no interest in the operations of this corporation, we have no right to acquire this stock or assets unless the Hughes Family decides to sell and we receive no benefit from the profits and increases in value of the Canadian self-storage facilities.

We reinsure risks relating to loss of goods stored by tenants in the self-storage facilities in Canada. During each of the nine month periods ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, we received $0.4 million in reinsurance premiums attributable to the Canadian facilities. Since our right to provide tenant reinsurance to the Canadian facilities may be qualified, there is no assurance that these premiums will continue.
PS Canada holds approximately a 2.2% interest in Stor-RE, a consolidated entity that provides liability and casualty insurance for PS Canada, the Company and certain affiliates of the Company for occurrences prior to April 1, 2004.
In August 2011, we acquired through mergers the interests we did not own in five limited partnerships for $54.6 million paid to the Hughes Family and $100.8 million paid to the other third-party limited partners (the “Other Partners”). In separate transactions in June and August 2011, we acquired interests in other entities from the Hughes Family for $13.5 million in cash. All amounts paid were based upon independent property appraisals and the liquidation terms of the partnerships. A special committee of our Board of Trustees unanimously determined that the transactions were fair and advisable to and in the best interests of Public Storage’s shareholders (other than the Hughes Family) and to the Other Partners, and an investment banking firm appointed by the special committee concluded that the amounts paid to the Other Partners was fair to them, from a financial point of view. Mr. Hughes, a former trustee, is indemnified for any litigation arising from these transactions. Mr. Hughes, who was co-general partner with Public Storage in certain of these entities, has withdrawn as general partner from each entity.
10. Share-Based Compensation
Under various share-based compensation plans, the Company can grant non-qualified options to purchase the Company’s common shares, as well as restricted share units (“RSUs”), to trustees, officers, service providers, and key employees. The terms of these grants are established by an authorized committee of our Board of Trustees.
Stock options and RSUs are considered “granted” and “outstanding” (legal grant date notwithstanding) as the terms are used herein, when i) the Company and the recipient reach a mutual understanding of the key terms of the award, ii) the award has been authorized in accordance with the Company’s share grant approval procedures, iii) the recipient begins to be benefited from or adversely affected by changes in the market price of our stock, and iv) it is probable that any performance and service conditions will be met.
We amortize the grant-date fair value of awards (net of anticipated forfeitures) as compensation expense over the service period. The service period generally begins on the grant date and ends on the earlier of the vesting date or the date when the recipient would not forfeit unvested grants upon termination. The service period begins on the date services begin to be provided, rather than on the grant date, when i) all the requirements of a grant have been met, except that the Company and the recipient have not reached a mutual understanding of the key terms of the award, and ii) no future services are required following the grant date.
We have elected to use the straight-line attribution method with respect to awards that are earned solely based upon the passage of time and continued employment. Awards with performance conditions are amortized using the accelerated attribution method, with each vesting amortized separately over the individual vesting period. The employer portion of taxes is expensed as incurred.
Stock Options
Stock option exercise prices are equal to the closing trading price of our common shares on the date they are legally granted, vest over a three to five-year period, and expire ten years after the legal grant date. We use the Black-Scholes option valuation model to estimate the fair value of our stock options.
Outstanding stock option grants are included on a one-for-one basis in our diluted weighted average shares, to the extent dilutive, after applying the treasury stock method (based upon the average common share price during the period) to assumed exercise proceeds and measured but unrecognized compensation.

(Unaudited)
For the three and nine months period ended September 30, 2012, we recorded $0.7 million and $2.0 million, respectively, in compensation expense related to stock options, as compared to $0.8 million and $2.3 million for the same periods in 2011.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, 35,000 stock options were granted, 304,389 options were exercised and 31,400 options were forfeited. A total of 2,290,277 stock options were outstanding at September 30, 2012 (2,591,066 at December 31, 2011).
Restricted Share Units
RSUs vest ratably over a three to eight-year period from the date they are legally granted. The grantee receives additional compensation for each outstanding RSU, classified as dividends paid, equal to the per-share dividends received by common shareholders. When RSUs are forfeited, any dividends previously paid on such forfeited RSUs are expensed. When RSUs vest, the grantee receives common shares equal to the number of vested RSUs, less common shares withheld in exchange for tax deposits, equal to the vesting-date fair value of the withheld shares, made by the Company to satisfy the employee’s statutory tax liabilities arising from the vesting.
The fair value of our RSUs is determined based upon the applicable closing trading price of our common shares.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, 150,400 RSUs were granted, 60,150 RSUs were forfeited and 144,472 RSUs vested. This vesting resulted in the issuance of 91,366 common shares. In addition, tax deposits totaling $6.9 million were made on behalf of employees in exchange for 53,106 common shares withheld upon vesting.
RSUs outstanding at September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 were 647,277 and 701,499, respectively. A total of $6.4 million and $16.4 million in RSU expense (including employer taxes incurred upon vesting) was recorded for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, respectively, as compared to $5.4 million and $15.7 million for the same periods in 2011.
See also “net income per common share” in Note 2 for further discussion regarding the impact of RSUs and stock options on our net income per common and income allocated to common shareholders.
Our reportable segments reflect the significant components of our operations that are evaluated separately by our chief operating decision maker and have discrete financial information available. Our segments are organized based upon differences in the nature of the underlying products, services, and whether the operation is located in the U.S. or outside the U.S. In making resource allocation decisions, our chief operating decision maker reviews the net income from continuing operations of each reportable segment included in the tables below, excluding the impact of depreciation and amortization, gains or losses on disposition of real estate facilities, and real estate impairment charges. The amounts for each reportable segment included in the tables below are in conformity with GAAP and our significant accounting policies as denoted in Note 2, and exclude ancillary revenues and expenses, interest income (other than from Loans Receivable from Unconsolidated Real Estate Entities), interest expense, general and administrative expense, and gains and losses on the early repayment of debt, none of which can be allocated to any reportable segment. Our chief operating decision maker does not consider the book value of assets in making resource allocation decisions.
Following is the description of and basis for presentation for each of our segments.
