The timing is perfect for us as our performance metrics are all excellent and continuing to get better. Our management team and supporting systems are broad, deep and talented.  We look forward to further growth through acquisitions", said Gary A. Shiffman, Chairman and CEO. Equity Transactions In November 2012, the Company closed an underwritten registered public offering of 3,400,000 shares of 7.125%  Series A (NYSE: SUIPr-A) preferred stock at a price of $25.00 per share. The net proceeds from the offering were $82.2 million after deducting the underwriting discounts and expenses related to the offering.  $55.3 million of the net proceeds of the offering was used to fund the acquisition on November 15, 2012. 2013 Guidance Based on its current outlook, the Company anticipates that FFO((1)) per Share for the full year 2013 will be between $3.45 to $3.55, which would produce FFO((1)) growth of 8.2% to 11.3% when compared to 2012 results. FFO((1)) guidance for the first quarter of 2013 is $0.96-$0.98 per Share.The Company's guidance is based on several key variables and assumptions, which are summarized below. Following are the assumptions reflected in the Company's 2013 guidance: * Rent Increase: The weighted average site rental increase for the total portfolio is expected to be 3.0 percent. * Occupancy: Revenue producing sites in our total portfolio are expected to increase by approximately 1,500 sites. An increase in revenue producing sites is budgeted in all major markets. Total portfolio occupancy is projected to be approximately 88.3 percent at year end, an increase in occupancy of 100 basis points from 2012. * Same Site Portfolio: The Company's same property portfolio of 159 communities is expected to generate revenue growth of approximately 4.7 -4.9 percent and property and operating expense growth of 2.5-2.6 percent resulting in NOI ((2)  )growth of approximately 5.6-5.9 percent. Revenue producing sites are expected to increase by approximately 1,200 sites in our same site portfolio. * Home Sales/Rental Home program: The Company expects to sell approximately 2,000 homes, including 1,000 rental homes, an increase of 15.0 percent over 2012. Guidance assumes an increase of  approximately1,000 occupied rental units; approximately one third of these are expected to be added in communities acquired by the Company in 2012. * Recurring capital expenditures: The Company expects recurring capital expenditures to approximate $9.3-$9.6 million for 2013, or about $0.29 per Share. Using the midpoint of earnings guidance and after consideration of recurring capital expenditures, the payout ratio will approximate 79.0 percent when compared to an annual dividend rate of $2.52 per Share. * General and administrative expenses-real property: These expenses are estimated at $23.5-$24.0 million . General and administrative expenses-real property are inclusive of our property management costs for regional and senior level operations personnel. * Debt: Mortgage debt maturities in 2013 are $9.9 million excluding the $36.0 million seller note associated with the Palm Creek Golf & RV resort acquisition, as it was repaid on January 2, 2013. The Company's Debt to EBITDA((3)) multiple is projected to be 7.6-7.8 by year end. * Expansions: The Company continues to look at expansion opportunities in communities that are near 95 percent occupied and which continue to exhibit strong demand. Guidance includes the expansion of six Texas communities and three additional expansions in various states, which will add approximately 1,130 developed sites by year end. The expansions are expected to open in late third and fourth quarter of 2013 and have an estimated fill rate of 6-8 sites per month. * Acquisitions: Guidance includes income from communities  acquired through February 2013 but no prospective acquisitions. The estimates and assumptions presented above are forward looking based on the Company's current assessment of economic and market conditions, as well as other risks outlined below under the caption "Forward-Looking Statements."

Investor Relations, 27777 Franklin Road,   Southfield, MI 48034. 1. Funds from operations ("FFO") is defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT") as net income (loss) (computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles "GAAP"), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of depreciable operating property, plus real estate-related depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. FFO is a non-GAAP financial measure that management believes is a useful supplemental measure of the Company's operating performance. Management generally considers FFO to be a useful measure for reviewing comparative operating and financial performance because, by excluding gains and losses related to sales of previously depreciated operating real estate assets, impairment and excluding real estate asset depreciation and amortization (which can vary among owners of identical assets in similar condition based on historical cost accounting and useful life estimates), FFO provides a performance measure that, when compared year over year, reflects the impact to operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates and operating costs, providing perspective not readily apparent from net loss. Management believes that the use of FFO has been beneficial in improving the understanding of operating results of REITs among the investing public and making comparisons of REIT operating results more meaningful. FFO is computed in accordance with the Company's interpretation of standards established by NAREIT, which may not be comparable to FFO reported by other REITs that do not define the term in accordance with the current NAREIT definition or that interpret the current NAREIT definition differently than the Company. Because FFO excludes significant economic components of net income (loss) including depreciation and amortization, FFO should be used as an adjunct to net income (loss) and not as an alternative to net income (loss). The principal limitation of FFO is that it does not represent cash flow from operations as defined by GAAP and is a supplemental measure of performance that does not replace net income (loss) as a measure of performance or net cash provided by operating activities as a measure of liquidity. In addition, FFO is not intended as a measure of a REIT's ability to meet debt principal repayments and other cash requirements, nor as a measure of working capital. FFO only provides investors with an additional performance measure. 2. Investors in and analysts following the real estate industry utilize NOI as a supplemental performance measure. NOI is derived from revenues minus property operating expenses and real estate taxes. NOI does not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered to be an alternative to net income (loss) (determined in accordance with GAAP) as an indication of the Company's financial performance or to be an alternative to cash flow from operating activities (determined in accordance with GAAP) as a measure of the Company's liquidity; nor is it indicative of funds available for the Company's cash needs, including its ability to make cash distributions. The Company believes that net income (loss) is the most directly comparable GAAP measurement to NOI. Net income (loss) includes interest and depreciation and amortization which often have no effect on the market value of a property and therefore limit its use as a performance measure. In addition, such expenses are often incurred at a parent company level and therefore are not necessarily linked to the performance of a real estate asset. The Company believes that NOI is helpful to investors as a measure of operating performance because it is an indicator of the return on property investment, and provides a method of comparing property performance over time. The Company uses NOI as a key management tool when evaluating performance and growth of particular properties and/or groups of properties. The principal limitation of NOI is that it excludes depreciation, amortization, interest expense, and non-property specific expenses such as general and administrative expenses, all of which are significant costs, and therefore, NOI is a measure of the operating performance of the properties of the Company rather than of the Company overall. 3. EBITDA is defined as NOI plus other income, plus (minus) equity earnings (loss) from affiliates, minus general and administrative expenses.  EBITDA includes EBITDA from discontinued operations.
