BUSINESS References to "we," "us" or "our" refer to Crescent Real Estate Equities Company and, unless the context otherwise requires, Crescent Real Estate Equities Limited Partnership, which we refer to as our Operating Partnership, and our other direct and indirect subsidiaries. We conduct our business and operations through the Operating Partnership, our other subsidiaries and our joint ventures. References to "Crescent" refer to Crescent Real Estate Equities Company. The sole general partner of the Operating Partnership is Crescent Real Estate Equities, Ltd., a wholly- owned subsidiary of Crescent Real Estate Equities Company, which we refer to as the General Partner. GENERAL We operate as a real estate investment trust, or REIT, for federal income tax purposes and provide management, leasing and development services for some of our properties. At December 31, 2004, our assets and operations consisted of four investment segments: - Office Segment; - Resort/Hotel Segment; - Residential Development Segment; and - Temperature-Controlled Logistics Segment. Within these segments, we owned in whole or in part the following operating real estate assets, which we refer to as the Properties: - THE OFFICE SEGMENT consisted of 78 office properties, which we refer to as the Office Properties, located in 29 metropolitan submarkets in eight states, with an aggregate of approximately 31.6 million net rentable square feet. Fifty-seven of the Office Properties are wholly-owned and twenty-one are owned through joint ventures, two of which are consolidated and nineteen of which are unconsolidated. - THE RESORT/HOTEL SEGMENT consisted of five luxury and destination fitness resorts and spas with a total of 1,036 rooms/guest nights and three upscale business-class hotel properties with a total of 1,376 rooms, which we refer to as the Resort/Hotel Properties. Seven of the Resort/Hotel Properties are wholly-owned and one is owned through a joint venture that is consolidated. - THE RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT SEGMENT consisted of our ownership of common stock representing interests of 98% to 100% in four residential development corporations. These Residential Development Corporations, through partnership arrangements, owned in whole or in part 23 upscale residential development properties, which we refer to as the Residential Development Properties. - THE TEMPERATURE-CONTROLLED LOGISTICS SEGMENT consisted of our 31.7% interest in AmeriCold Realty Trust, or AmeriCold, a REIT. As of December 31, 2004, AmeriCold operated 103 facilities, of which 87 were wholly-owned, one was partially-owned and fifteen were managed for outside owners. The 88 owned facilities, which we refer to as the Temperature-Controlled Logistics Properties, had an aggregate of approximately 443.7 million cubic feet (17.6 million square feet) of warehouse space. AmeriCold also owned two quarries and the related land. See Note 3, "Segment Reporting," included in Item 8, "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data," for a table showing selected financial information for each of these investment segments for the three years ended December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002, and total assets, consolidated property level financing, consolidated other liabilities and minority interests for each of these investment segments at December 31, 2004 and 2003. See Note 1, "Organization and Basis of Presentation," included in Item 8, "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data," for a table that lists our principal subsidiaries and the properties that they own. 3 See Note 9, "Investments in Unconsolidated Companies," included in Item 8, "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data," for a table that lists our ownership in significant unconsolidated joint ventures and investments as of December 31, 2004. BUSINESS OBJECTIVES AND STRATEGIES BUSINESS OBJECTIVES Our primary business objective is to be the recognized leader in real estate investment management of premier commercial office assets and to allocate capital to high-yielding resort and residential real estate. We strive to provide an attractive return on equity to our shareholders, through our focus on increasing earnings, cash flow growth and predictability, and continually strengthening our balance sheet. We also strive to attract and retain the best talent available, to align their interests with the interests of our shareholders and to empower management through the development and implementation of a cohesive set of operating, investing and financing strategies. OPERATING STRATEGIES We seek to enhance our operating performance by distinguishing ourselves as the recognized leader in real estate investment management of premier commercial office assets. Our operating strategies include: - using our operating platform to provide superior asset management services to institutional partners in our joint venture office assets; - operating the Office Properties as long-term investments; - providing exceptional customer service; - increasing occupancies, rental rates and same-store net operating income while continuing to limit tenant concessions to market levels; - capitalizing on economies of scale through dominant market position; and - emphasizing brand recognition of our Class A Office Properties and luxury and destination fitness resorts and spas. INVESTING STRATEGIES We focus on investment opportunities primarily within the Office Segment in markets considered "demand-driven," or metropolitan areas expected to enjoy significant long-term employment and office demand growth. These investment opportunities are evaluated in light of our long-term investment strategy of investing in assets within markets with at least above national average economic expansion rates combined with significant office development supply constraints. We also focus on allocating capital in businesses which have experienced operators, particularly in premier residential development and resort real estate. Investment opportunities are expected to provide growth in earnings and cash flow after applying management skills, renovation and expansion capital and strategic vision. Our investment strategies include: - capitalizing on strategic acquisition opportunities, including acquisitions with joint venture capital resources, primarily within our investment segments; - continually evaluating existing portfolio for potential joint-venture opportunities with institutional partners; - continually reviewing opportunities to maximize returns on assets through strategic dispositions of assets based on current and prospective market valuations; 4 - allocating capital to residential development partners for opportunities that increase return on equity and add diversification to our portfolio; - investing in real estate-related securities and mezzanine debt to maximize returns on excess capital; and - evaluating future repurchases of our common shares, considering stock price, cost of capital, alternative investment options and growth implications. FINANCING STRATEGIES We employ a disciplined set of financing strategies to fund our operating and investing activities. Our financing strategies include: - funding operating expenses and capital expenditures, debt service payments and distributions to shareholders and unitholders primarily through our cash flow from operations as well as return of capital from the Residential Development Segment; - taking advantage of market opportunities to refinance existing debt to reduce interest costs, maintaining a conservative debt maturity schedule and expanding our lending group; - minimizing our exposure to market changes in interest rates through fixed rate debt and interest rate swaps to limit floating rate debt; and - utilizing a combination of debt, equity, joint venture capital and strategic asset disposition alternatives to finance acquisition and development opportunities. AVAILABLE INFORMATION You can find our website on the Internet at www.crescent.com. We provide free of charge on our website our annual report on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, current reports on Form 8-K, and amendments to those reports as soon as reasonably practicable after electronically filed with or furnished to the Securities and Exchange Commission. EMPLOYEES As of March 2, 2005, we had approximately 747 employees. None of these employees are covered by collective bargaining agreements. We consider our employee relations to be good. TAX STATUS We have elected to be taxed as a REIT under Sections 856 through 860 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the Code, and operate in a manner intended to enable us to continue to qualify as a REIT. As a REIT, we generally will not be subject to corporate federal income tax on net income that we currently distribute to our shareholders, provided that we satisfy certain organizational and operational requirements including the requirement to distribute at least 90% of our REIT taxable income to our shareholders each year. If we fail to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, we will be subject to federal income tax (including any applicable alternative minimum tax) on our taxable income at regular corporate tax rates. We are subject to certain state and local taxes. We have elected to treat certain of our corporate subsidiaries as taxable REIT subsidiaries, each of which we refer to as a TRS. In general, a TRS may perform additional services for our tenants and may engage in any real estate or non-real estate business (except for the operation or management of health care facilities or lodging facilities or the provision to any person, under a franchise, license or otherwise, of rights to any brand name under which any lodging facility or health care facility is operated). A TRS is subject to corporate federal income tax. 5 ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS We and our Properties are subject to a variety of federal, state and local environmental, health and safety laws, including: - Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act, as amended ("CERCLA"); - Resource Conservation & Recovery Act; - Clean Water Act; - Clean Air Act; - Toxic Substances Control Act; and - Occupational Safety & Health Act. The application of these laws to a specific property that we own will be dependent on a variety of property-specific circumstances, including the former uses of the property and the building materials used at each property. Under certain environmental laws, principally CERCLA and comparable state laws, a current or previous owner or operator of real estate may be required to investigate and clean up certain hazardous or toxic substances, asbestos-containing materials, or petroleum product releases at the property. They may also be held liable to a governmental entity or third parties for property damage and for investigation and clean up costs such parties incur in connection with the contamination, whether or not the owner or operator knew of, or was responsible for, the contamination. In addition, some environmental laws create a lien on the contaminated site in favor of the government for damages and costs it incurs in connection with the contamination. The owner or operator of a site also may be liable under certain environmental laws and common law to third parties for damages and injuries resulting from environmental contamination emanating from the site. Such costs or liabilities could exceed the value of the affected real estate. The presence of contamination or the failure to remediate contamination may adversely affect the owner's ability to sell or lease real estate or to borrow using the real estate as collateral. Our compliance with existing environmental, health and safety laws has not had a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations, and management does not believe it will have such an effect in the future. To further protect our financial interests regarding environmental matters, we have in place a Pollution and Remediation Legal Liability insurance policy which will respond in the event of certain future environmental liabilities. In addition, we are not aware of any outstanding or future material costs or liabilities due to environmental contamination at properties we currently own or owned in the past. However, we cannot predict the impact of new or changed laws or regulations on our current properties or on properties that we may acquire in the future. INDUSTRY SEGMENTS OFFICE SEGMENT OWNERSHIP STRUCTURE As of December 31, 2004, we owned or had an interest in 78 Office Properties located in 29 metropolitan submarkets in eight states, with an aggregate of approximately 31.6 million net rentable square feet. As lessor, we have retained substantially all of the risks and benefits of ownership of the Office Properties and account for the leases of our 59 consolidated Office Properties as operating leases. Fifty-seven of the Office Properties are wholly-owned and twenty-one are owned through joint ventures, two of which are consolidated and nineteen of which are unconsolidated. Additionally, we provide management and leasing oversight services for all of our Office Properties. RECENT DEVELOPMENTS JOINT VENTURES During the year ended December 31, 2004, we contributed Office Properties (Houston Center, Post Oak Central, The Crescent, Fountain Place and Trammell Crow Center) to limited partnerships in which we have a 23.85% interest. Subsequent to December 31, 2004, we contributed 1301 McKinney Street and an adjacent parking garage to a limited partnership in which we have a 23.85% interest. 6 PURCHASES During the year ended December 31, 2004, we purchased the following office properties: - Peakview Tower in Denver, Colorado; - 1301 McKinney Street in Houston, Texas; - One Live Oak in Atlanta, Georgia; - The Alhambra in Miami, Florida; - Dupont Centre in Irvine, California; - Six Office Properties and seven retail parcels within Hughes Center in Las Vegas, Nevada. Subsequent to December 31, 2004, we purchased the Exchange Building in Seattle, Washington. SALES During the year ended December 31, 2004, we sold the following office properties: - 12404 Park Central in Dallas, Texas; - 5050 Quorum in Dallas, Texas; - Addison Tower in Dallas, Texas; - Ptarmigan Place in Denver, Colorado; - Liberty Plaza in Dallas, Texas; - 1800 West Loop South in Houston, Texas. Subsequent to December 31, 2004, we sold Albuquerque Plaza in Albuquerque, New Mexico. MARKET INFORMATION The Office Property portfolio reflects our research-driven strategy of investing in first-class assets within markets that have significant potential for long-term rental growth. Within our selected submarkets, we have focused on premier locations that management believes are able to attract and retain the highest quality tenants and command premium rents. Consistent with our long-term investment strategies, we have sought new acquisitions that have strong economic returns based on in-place tenancy and/or strong value-creation potential given the market and Crescent's core competencies. Moreover, we have also sought assets with dominant positions within their markets and submarkets due to quality and/or location which mitigates the risks of market volatility. Accordingly, management's long-term investment strategy not only demands an acceptable current cash flow return on invested capital, but also considers long-term cash flow growth prospects. We apply a well-defined leasing strategy in order to capture the potential rental growth in our portfolio of Office Properties from occupancy gains within the markets and the submarkets in which we have invested. In selecting the Office Properties, our research has analyzed demographic, economic and market data to identify metropolitan areas expected to enjoy significant long-term employment and office demand growth. The markets in which we are currently invested are projected to continue to exceed national employment and population growth rates, as illustrated in the following table. In addition, we consider these markets "Demand-Driven". Our research-based office investment strategy also includes metropolitan regions with at least above national average economic expansion rates combined with significant office development supply constraints. Additionally, our investment strategy seeks geographic and regional economic diversification within the universe of markets expected to experience excellent economic and office demand growth. 7 PROJECTED POPULATION GROWTH AND EMPLOYMENT GROWTH FOR ALL COMPANY MARKETS POPULATION EMPLOYMENT GROWTH GROWTH METROPOLITAN STATISTICAL AREA 2005-2007 2005-2007 ----------------------------- ---------- ---------- Atlanta, GA 7.5 7.4 Austin, TX 9.1 9.8 Colorado Springs, CO 5.2 4.9 Dallas, TX 6.4 6.7 Denver, CO 4.1 5.1 Fort Worth, TX 6.5 6.6 Houston, TX 5.1 5.8 Las Vegas, NV 11.6 8.2 Miami, FL 3.0 4.5 Orange County, CA 4.1 6.0 Phoenix, AZ 7.9 8.6 San Diego, CA 5.6 6.5 Seattle, WA 4.3 7.8 United States 2.8 4.3 ----------------------------- Source: Economy.com, Inc.

Occupancy rose and economic net absorption (the measure of office demand) turned positive in almost all the markets. The statistics for the Houston market did not reflect improvement based on annual performance, but in the second half of 2004, Houston did experience positive net absorption and occupancy improvement. The Texas and Denver markets are still soft but have shown signs of recovery. The Miami market remains healthy, and the Las Vegas market is one of the best office markets in the country. 8 OFFICE MARKET ABSORPTION AND OCCUPANCY FOR COMPANY MARKETS(1) ECONOMIC NET ABSORPTION ECONOMIC NET ABSORPTION ALL CLASSES CLASS A ECONOMIC OCCUPANCY ECONOMIC OCCUPANCY (IN SQUARE FEET) (IN SQUARE FEET) ALL CLASSES CLASS A --------- ----------------------- ------------------------ ------------------- ----------------- MARKET 2004 2003 2004 2003 2004 2003 2004 2003 --------- --------- ---------- --------- ---------- ----- ----- ------ ----- Dallas 1,075,000 (4,161,000) 917,000 (830,000) 75.2% 74.7% 79.3% 78.3% Houston 75,000 (1,972,000) (345,000) (1,010,000) 82.8% 83.0% 84.2% 84.8% Austin 961,000 (1,532,000) 991,000 (363,000) 82.3% 80.4% 82.1% 77.5% Denver 13,000 (1,884,000) 493,000 (19,000) 81.7% 82.2% 82.3% 81.5% Miami 1,318,000 252,000 1,036,000 291,000 89.0% 87.1% 85.0% 81.4% Las Vegas 1,892,000 928,000 615,000 154,000 88.8% 87.4% 91.1% 90.4% ----------------------------- Sources: CoStar Group (Dallas, Houston, Austin, Denver); Jones Lang LaSalle (Miami); Grubb & Ellis Las Vegas (Las Vegas). (1) Economic net absorption and economic occupancy exclude sublet space. One of the reasons for the improved occupancy in 2004 is that most markets have relatively low levels of construction activity. Therefore, all positive net absorption translates directly into higher occupancy rates. The only market that has significant construction (relative to its size) is Las Vegas, and its occupancy levels demonstrate that this space, which is almost all Class B, is being readily absorbed.

COMPETITION Our Office Properties, primarily Class A properties located within the southwest, individually compete against a wide range of property owners and developers, including property management companies and other REITs, that offer space in similar classes of office properties (specifically Class A and Class B properties). A number of these owners and developers may own more than one property. The number and type of competing properties in a particular market or submarket could have a material effect on our ability to lease space and maintain or increase occupancy or rents in our existing Office Properties. We believe, however, that the quality services and individualized attention that we offer our tenants, together with our active preventive maintenance program and superior building locations within markets, enhance our ability to attract and retain tenants for our Office Properties. In addition, as of December 31, 2004, on a weighted average basis, we owned approximately 14.7% of the Class A office space in the 29 submarkets in which we owned Class A office properties, and 23.1% of the Class B office space in the one submarket in which we owned Class B office properties. Management believes that ownership of a significant percentage of office space in a particular market reduces property operating expenses, enhances our ability to attract and retain tenants and potentially results in increases in our net income. 9 DIVERSIFIED TENANT BASE Our top five tenants accounted for approximately 13% of our total Office Segment revenues as of December 31, 2004. The loss of one or more of our major tenants would have a temporary adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations until we are able to re-lease the space previously leased to these tenants. Based on rental revenues from office leases in effect as of December 31, 2004, no single tenant accounted for more than 6% of our total Office Segment revenues for 2004. RESORT/HOTEL SEGMENT OWNERSHIP STRUCTURE As of December 31, 2004, we owned or had an interest in eight Resort/Hotel Properties. We hold one of the Resort/Hotel Properties, the Fairmont Sonoma Mission Inn & Spa, through a joint venture arrangement, pursuant to which we own an 80.1% interest in the limited liability company that owns the property. The remaining Resort/Hotel Properties are wholly-owned. Seven of the Resort/Hotel Properties are leased to taxable REIT subsidiaries that we own or in which we have an interest. The Omni Austin Hotel is leased to HCD Austin Corporation, an unrelated third party. Third party operators manage all of the Resort/Hotel Properties. RECENT DEVELOPMENTS CANYON RANCH On January 18, 2005, we formed two new entities, which we collectively refer to as Canyon Ranch, with the founders of Canyon Ranch. As a result, all Canyon Ranch assets are held 48% by us and 52% by its founders. The assets contributed or sold to Canyon Ranch by the equity owners comprise the following: - Canyon Ranch Tucson and Canyon Ranch Lenox Destination Resorts; - Canyon Ranch SpaClub at the Venetian Resort in Las Vegas; - Canyon Ranch SpaClub on the Queen Mary 2 ocean liner; - Canyon Ranch Living Community in Miami, Florida; - Canyon Ranch SpaClub at the Gaylord Palms Resort in Kissimee, Florida; - All Canyon Ranch trade names and trademarks; - Resort management contracts. As part of the transaction, Canyon Ranch completed a private placement of $110 million of Mandatorily Redeemable Convertible Preferred Membership units and completed a $95 million mortgage financing. As a result of these transactions, we received approximately $91.9 million which was used to pay down or defease debt related to our previous investment in the properties and to pay down our credit facility. HYATT REGENCY HOTEL On October 19, 2004, we completed the sale of the Hyatt Regency Hotel in Albuquerque, New Mexico. MARKET INFORMATION Lodging demand is highly dependent upon the global economy and volume of business travel as well as leisure travel. The hospitality market began to soften in early 2001 as the national economy went into recession. In 2001 and 2002, the industry experienced declines in occupancy, room rates, and revenue per available room (RevPAR is a combination of occupancy and room rates and is the chief measure of hotel market performance). Leisure travel recovered slightly in 2003, but business travel remained weak. As a result, market conditions were flat in 2003. In 2004, not only did leisure travel rise, but business travel increased for the first time since 2000. The result for the entire industry was a 2.2 percentage point increase in occupancy to 61.3%, a 4.0% increase in average daily room rates (ADR), and a 7.8% increase in RevPAR. In 2004, for the luxury section of the industry, the most comparable to our portfolio, hotel occupancy rose 3.4 percentage points to 68%, ADR increased 5.2%, and RevPAR increased 10.8%. 10 COMPETITION We believe that our luxury and destination fitness resorts and spas are unique properties due to location, concept and high replacement cost, all of which create barriers for competition to enter. However, the luxury and destination fitness resorts and spas do compete against business-class hotels or middle-market resorts in their geographic areas, as well as against luxury resorts nationwide and around the world. Our upscale business class Resort/Hotel Properties in Denver, Austin and Houston are business and convention center hotels that compete against other business and convention center hotels. RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT SEGMENT OWNERSHIP STRUCTURE As of December 31, 2004, we owned common stock representing interests of 98% to 100% in four Residential Development Corporations, which in turn, through joint ventures or partnership arrangements, owned in whole or in part 23 Residential Development Properties. The Residential Development Corporations are responsible for the continued development and the day-to-day operations of the Residential Development Properties. RECENT DEVELOPMENTS On September 14, 2004, we completed the sale of Breckenridge Commercial Retail Center in Breckenridge, Colorado. On October 21, 2004, we entered into a partnership agreement with affiliates of JPI Multi-Family Investments, L.P. to develop a multi-family luxury apartment project in Dedham, Massachusetts. We funded $13.3 million, or 100% of the equity, and received a limited partnership interest which earns a preferred return and a profit split above the preferred return hurdle. COMPETITION AND MARKET INFORMATION Our Residential Development Properties compete against a variety of other housing alternatives in each of their respective areas. These alternatives include other planned developments, pre-existing single-family homes, condominiums, townhouses and non-owner occupied housing, such as luxury apartments. Management believes that Desert Mountain and the properties owned by CRDI, representing our most significant investments in Residential Development Properties, contain certain features that provide competitive advantages to these developments. Desert Mountain, a luxury residential and recreational private community in Scottsdale, Arizona, offers six 18-hole Jack Nicklaus signature golf courses with adjacent clubhouses. Management believes Desert Mountain has few direct competitors due in part to the superior environmental attributes and the amenity package that Desert Mountain offers to its members. Sources of competition come from the resale market of existing lots and homes within Desert Mountain and from a few smaller projects in the area. In addition, Desert Mountain has a superior amenity package and future residential golf development in the Scottsdale area is limited due to the lack of water available for golf course use. CRDI invests primarily in mountain resort residential real estate in Colorado and California, and residential real estate in downtown Denver, Colorado. Management believes that the Properties owned by CRDI have limited direct competitors because the projects' locations are unique, land availability is limited, and development rights are restricted in most of these locations. Residential development demand is highly dependent upon the national economy, mortgage interest rates and home sales. As the economy showed signs of improvement in 2004, we generally saw improved activity, absorption, and pricing in all regions of our residential investments. 11 TEMPERATURE-CONTROLLED LOGISTICS SEGMENT OWNERSHIP STRUCTURE As of December 31, 2004, the Temperature-Controlled Logistics Segment consisted of our 31.7% interest in AmeriCold Realty Trust, or AmeriCold, a REIT. AmeriCold operates 103 facilities, of which 87 are wholly-owned, one is partially-owned and fifteen are managed for outside owners. The 88 owned facilities, which we refer to as the Temperature-Controlled Logistics Properties, have an aggregate of approximately 443.7 million cubic feet (17.6 million square feet) of warehouse space. AmeriCold also owns two quarries and the related land. RECENT DEVELOPMENTS On November 18, 2004, Vornado Crescent Portland Partnership, or VCPP, the partnership through which we owned our 40% interest in AmeriCold, sold a 20.7% interest in AmeriCold to The Yucaipa Companies for $145.0 million, resulting in a gain of approximately $12.3 million, net of transaction costs, to us. In addition, Yucaipa will assist in the management of AmeriCold and may earn a promote of up to 20% of the increase in value through December 31, 2007. The promote is payable out of the remaining outstanding common shares in AmeriCold, including the common shares held by us, and limited to 10% of these remaining common shares. Immediately following this transaction, VCPP dissolved and, after the payment of all of its liabilities, distributed its remaining assets to its partners. The assets distributed to us consisted of common shares, representing an approximately 31.7% interest in AmeriCold, cash of approximately $34.3 million and a note receivable of approximately $8.0 million. On November 4, 2004, AmeriCold purchased 100% of the ownership interests in its tenant, AmeriCold Logistics, for approximately $47.7 million. The purchase was funded by a contribution from AmeriCold's owner, VCPP, which funded its contribution through a loan from our partner, Vornado Realty, L.P. On November 4, 2004, AmeriCold also purchased 100% of the ownership interests in Vornado Crescent and KC Quarry, L.L.C., or VCQ, for approximately $24.9 million. AmeriCold used a cash contribution from its owner, of which our portion was approximately $9.9 million, to fund the purchase. As a result of our 56% ownership interest in VCQ, we received proceeds from the sale of VCQ of approximately $13.2 million. On February 5, 2004, AmeriCold completed a $254.4 million mortgage financing with Morgan Stanley Mortgage Capital Inc., which resulted in a cash distribution to us of $90.0 million. BUSINESS AND INDUSTRY INFORMATION AmeriCold provides the food industry with refrigerated warehousing, transportation management services and other logistical services. The Temperature-Controlled Logistics Properties consist of production, distribution and public facilities. In addition, AmeriCold manages facilities owned by its customers for which it earns fixed and incentive fees. Production facilities differ from distribution facilities in that they typically serve one or a small number of customers located nearby. These customers store large quantities of processed or partially processed products in the facility until they are further processed or shipped to the next stage of production or distribution. Distribution facilities primarily serve customers who store a wide variety of finished products to support shipment to end-users, such as food retailers and food service companies, in a specific geographic market. Public facilities generally serve the needs of local and regional customers under short-term agreements. Food manufacturers and processors use public facilities to store capacity overflow from their production facilities or warehouses. These facilities also provide a number of additional services such as blast freezing, import/export and labeling. AmeriCold provides supply chain management solutions to food manufacturers and retailers who require multi-temperature storage, handling and distribution capability for their products. Service offerings include comprehensive transportation management, supply chain network modeling and optimization, consulting and grocery retail-based distribution strategies such as multi-vendor consolidation, direct-store delivery (DSD) and seasonal product distribution. AmeriCold's technology provides food manufacturers with real time detailed inventory information via the Internet. 12 AmeriCold's customers consist primarily of national, regional and local food manufacturers, distributors, retailers and food service organizations. A breakdown of AmeriCold's largest customers includes: PERCENTAGE OF 2004 REVENUE ------------- H.J. Heinz Company 16.0% ConAgra Foods, Inc. 11.3 Altria Group Inc.

Simplot Company 1.6 Other 43.3 ---- TOTAL 100% ==== On November 18, 2004, Tony Schnug became Chief Executive Officer of AmeriCold. Mr. Schnug is a partner of The Yucaipa Companies and was responsible for conducting due diligence of potential acquisitions and oversees management of portfolio companies on strategy and operational issues. Previously, Mr. Schnug was an executive officer of Yucaipa portfolio companies including Fred Meyer, Ralphs and Food 4 Less with responsibilities covering logistics, manufacturing and construction. COMPETITION AmeriCold is the largest operator of temperature-controlled warehouse space in North America. As a result, AmeriCold does not have any competitors of comparable size. AmeriCold operates in an environment in which competition is national, regional and local in nature and in which the range of service, temperature-controlled logistics facilities, customer mix, service performance and price are the principal competitive factors.

SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS No matter was submitted to a vote of our security holders during the fourth quarter of our fiscal year ended December 31, 2004. 23 PART II ITEM 5.MARKET FOR REGISTRANT'S COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED SHAREHOLDER MATTERS Our common shares have been traded on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol "CEI" since the completion of our initial public offering in May 1994.For each calendar quarter indicated, the following table reflects the high and low sales prices during the quarter for the common shares and the distributions declared with respect to each quarter. PRICE --------------------- HIGH LOW DISTRIBUTIONS --------- --------- ------------- 2003 First Quarter $ 17.00 $ 13.60 $ 0.375 Second Quarter 17.42 14.18 0.375 Third Quarter 17.30 14.22 0.375 Fourth Quarter 17.51 14.82 0.375 2004 First Quarter $ 18.75 $ 17.31 $ 0.375 Second Quarter 17.90 15.05 0.375 Third Quarter 16.58 15.37 0.375 Fourth Quarter 19.09 15.47 0.375 As of March 2, 2005, there were approximately 864 holders of record of our common shares. DISTRIBUTION POLICY Our actual results of operations and the amounts actually available for distribution will be affected by a number of factors, including: - the general condition of the United States economy; - general leasing activity in the markets in which the Office Properties are located; - the ability of tenants to meet their rent obligations; - our operating and interest expenses; - consumer preferences relating to the Resort/Hotel Properties and the Residential Development Properties; - cash flows from unconsolidated entities; - capital expenditure requirements; - federal, state and local taxes payable by us; and - the adequacy of cash reserves. Our future distributions will be at the discretion of our Board of Trust Managers.The Board of Trust Managers has indicated that it will review the adequacy of our distribution rate on a quarterly basis. Under the Code, REITs are subject to numerous organizational and operational requirements, including the requirement to distribute at least 90% of REIT taxable income each year.Pursuant to this requirement, we were required to distribute $88.0 million and $48.0 million for 2004 and 2003, respectively.Our actual distributions to common and preferred shareholders were $180.6 million and $174.6 million for 2004 and 2003, respectively. Distributions to the extent of our current and accumulated earnings and profits for federal income tax purposes generally will be taxable to a shareholder as ordinary dividend income.For tax years beginning after December 31, 2002, qualified dividends paid to shareholders are taxed at capital gains rates, as added by the Jobs and Growth Tax Relief Reconciliation Act of 2003.Distributions in excess of current and accumulated earnings and profits will be treated as a nontaxable reduction of the shareholder's basis in such shareholder's shares, to the extent thereof, and thereafter as taxable gain.Distributions that are treated as a reduction of the shareholder's basis in its shares will have the effect of deferring taxation until the sale of the shareholder's shares.No assurances can be given regarding what portion, if any, of distributions in 2005 or subsequent years will constitute a return of capital for federal income tax purposes. 24 Following is the income tax status of distributions paid during the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003 to common shareholders: 2004 2003 ----- ----- Ordinary dividend -% 2.0% Qualified dividend eligible for 15% tax rate - 7.1 Capital gain 23.2 1.2 Return of capital 57.4 88.7 Unrecaptured Section 1250 gain 19.4 1.0 ----- ----- 100.0% 100.0% ===== ===== Distributions on the 14,200,000 Series A Convertible Cumulative Preferred Shares issued by us in February 1998, April 2002, and January 2004 are payable at a rate of $1.6875 per annum per Series A Convertible Cumulative Preferred Share, prior to distributions on the common shares. Distributions on the 3,400,000 Series B Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Shares issued by us in May and June 2002 are payable at a rate of $2.3750 per annum per Series B Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Share, prior to distributions on the common shares. Following is the income tax status of distributions paid during the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003 to preferred shareholders: CLASS A PREFERRED CLASS B PREFERRED ----------------- ----------------- 2004 2003 2004 2003 ----- ----- ----- ----- Ordinary dividend -% 17.9% -% 17.9% Qualified dividend eligible for 15% tax rate - 62.4 - 62.4 Capital gain 54.4 10.9 54.4 10.9 Unrecaptured Section 1250 Gain 45.6 8.8 45.6 8.8 ----- ----- ----- ----- 100.0% 100.0% 100.0% 100.0% ===== ===== ===== ===== UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES During the three months ended December 31, 2004, we issued an aggregate of 65,000 common shares to holders of Operating Partnership units in exchange for 32,500 units. Of the 65,000 shares, 15,000 were issued on October 20, 2004, 20,000 were issued on December 2, 2004 and 30,000 were issued on December 3, 2004. The issuances of common shares were exempt from registration as private placements under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act. We registered the resale of such common shares under the Securities Act. 25 ITEM 6.

(2) Funds from operations, or FFO, is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measurement used in the real estate industry to measure and compare the operating performance of real estate companies, although those companies may calculate funds from operations in different ways. The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (NAREIT) defines funds from operations as Net Income (Loss) determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of depreciable operating property, excluding extraordinary items (determined by GAAP), plus depreciation and amortization of real estate assets, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. We calculate FFO available to common shareholders - diluted - NAREIT definition in the same manner, except the Net Income (Loss) is replaced by Net Income (Loss) Available to Common Shareholders and we include the effect of Operating Partnership unitholder minority interests. We calculate Adjusted Funds From Operations Available to Common Shareholders - diluted (FFO) by excluding the effect of impairment charges related to real estate assets and by excluding the effect of extinguishment of debt related to real estate asset sales. For a more detailed definition and description of FFO and a reconciliation to net income determined in accordance with GAAP, see "Funds from Operations" included in Item 7, "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition ad Results of Operations." 26 ITEM 7.

This Form 10-K contains 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.These statements are generally characterized by terms such as "believe," "expect," "anticipate" and "may." Although we believe that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are based upon reasonable assumptions, our actual results could differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements. The following factors might cause such a difference: - Our ability, at our office properties, to timely lease unoccupied square footage and timely re-lease occupied square footage upon expiration on favorable terms, which continue to be adversely affected by existing real estate conditions (including decreased rental rates and the vacancy levels in particular markets, decreased rental rates and competition from other properties) and may also be adversely affected by general economic downturns; - The continuation of relatively high vacancy rates and reduced rental rates in our office portfolio as a result of conditions within our principal markets; - Our ability to reinvest available funds at anticipated returns and consummate anticipated office acquisitions on favorable terms and within anticipated time frames; - Adverse changes in the financial condition of existing tenants, in particular El Paso Energy and its affiliates which provide 5.8% of our annualized office revenues; - Further deterioration in our resort/business-class hotel markets or in the economy generally; - Further deterioration in the market or in the economy generally and increases in construction cost associated with development of residential land or luxury residences, including single-family homes, townhomes and condominiums; - Financing risks, such as our ability to generate revenue sufficient to service and repay existing or additional debt, increases in debt service associated with increased debt and with variable-rate debt, our ability to meet financial and other covenants and our ability to consummate financings and refinancings on favorable terms and within any applicable time frames; - Our ability to dispose of investment land, and other non-core assets, on favorable terms and within anticipated time frames; - The concentration of a significant percentage of our assets in Texas; - The existence of complex regulations relating to our status as a REIT, the effect of future changes in REIT requirements as a result of new legislation and the adverse consequences of the failure to qualify as a REIT; and - Other risks detailed from time to time in our filings with the SEC. Given these uncertainties, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such statements.We are not obligated to update these forward-looking statements to reflect any future events or circumstances. 28 OVERVIEW We are a REIT with assets and operations divided into four investment segments: Office, Resort/Hotel, Residential Development and Temperature-Controlled Logistics.Our primary business is our Office Segment, which consisted of 78 Office Properties and represented 60% of total assets as of December 31, 2004. Capital flows in the real estate industry have changed significantly over the last few years.Institutions as well as other investors, principally U.S. pension funds, have increased their allocation to real estate and it appears that this will continue for the foreseeable future.This inflow of capital has created a uniquely attractive environment for the sale of assets as well as joint ventures.Likewise, the acquisition environment is highly competitive, making it more difficult to provide attractive returns on equity that are comparable to those achieved in acquisitions made during the 1990's. We have adapted our strategy to align ourselves with institutional partners, with the goal of transitioning towards being a real estate investment management company.Rather than competing with the substantial inflow of capital into the acquisition market, we are focusing on acquiring assets jointly with these institutional investors, moving existing assets into joint-venture arrangements with these investors, and capitalizing on our award-winning platform in office management and our leasing expertise to continue to provide these services, for a fee, for the properties in the ventures.Where possible, we will strive to negotiate performance based incentives that allow for additional equity to be earned if return targets are exceeded. Consistent with this strategy, we continually evaluate our existing portfolio for potential joint venture opportunities.Recently, we completed significant joint venture transactions involving five of our landmark Properties valued at approximately $1.2 billion.As with previous ventures, we are now a minority partner but continue to provide leasing and management services to the ventures. In addition, in January 2005, we completed the recapitalization of our Canyon Ranch Resort/Hotel Properties. Further, we sold $171.5 million of non-core assets in 2004 and expect to sell an additional $120.0 million in the near term, including land holdings that are currently not contributing to our earnings.Included in these sales are two business class hotels, one of which was sold in October 2004 at a gain and the remaining hotel, which we believe we can sell at an attractive gain, and at the same time further simplify our business model.As the expected sales are completed, we will redeploy proceeds to acquire real estate assets and pay down certain consolidated debt and other obligations. OFFICE SEGMENT The following table shows the performance factors on stabilized properties used by management to assess the operating performance of the Office Segment: 2004 2003 ------------- ------------ Economic Occupancy (1) 88.5% (3) 86.0% (3) Leased Occupancy (2) 89.8% (3) 88.5% (3) In-Place Weighted Average Full-Service Rental Rate $ 22.63 (3) $ 22.63 Tenant Improvement and Leasing Costs per Sq. Ft. per year $ 3.13 $ 3.14 Average Lease Term 7.4 years 7.8 years Same-Store NOI(4)(Decline) (5.3)%(3) (11.5)% Same-Store Average Occupancy 86.0% (3) 84.3% ------------------------------------- (1) Economic occupancy reflects the occupancy of all tenants paying rent. (2) Leased occupancy reflects the amount of contractually obligated space, whether or not commencement has occurred. (3) Excludes held for sale properties. (4) Same-store NOI (net operating income) represents office property net income excluding depreciation, amortization, interest expense and non-recurring items such as lease termination fees for Office Properties owned for the entirety of the comparable periods. 2004 was a year of occupancy stabilization in our markets.In 2005, we expect continued improvement in the economy.This allows us to remain cautiously optimistic about occupancy gains in 2005.We expect that year-end 2005 occupancy for our portfolio will increase to over 90%. 29 RESORT/HOTEL SEGMENT The following table shows the performance factors used by management to assess the operating performance of our luxury and destination fitness resorts. FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, ------------------------------------------------------------------ REVENUE AVERAGE AVERAGE PER OCCUPANCY DAILY AVAILABLE RATE RATE ROOM/GUEST NIGHT -------------------- ---------------------- --------------- 2004 2003 2004 2003 2004 2003 ---- ---- ---- ---- ---- ---- Luxury and Destination Fitness Resorts 69% 68% $501 $469 $331 c$311 The occupancy increase at our luxury and destination fitness resorts for the year ended December 31, 2004 as compared to 2003 is partially driven by increases at Canyon Ranch Tucson and Canyon Ranch Lenox, at which occupancy increased three percentage points (from 76% to 79%).Average daily rate increased 8% (from $661 to $713), and revenue per available room increased 10% (from $475 to $521) as a result of expanded medical service offerings. These increases are partially offset by decreases in occupancy at Sonoma Mission Inn (from 61% to 59%) as a result of the renovation of 97 rooms which were taken out of service in November 2003.Renovation was completed in the second quarter of 2004 at which time the 97 rooms were put back into service.In addition, occupancy decreased eleven percentage points (from 75% to 64%) at Ventana Inn as a result of the renovation of thirteen suites which were taken out of service in April 2004 and completed in September 2004. We anticipate an 8% to 10% increase in revenue per available room in 2005 at the luxury and destination fitness resorts and a 3 to 5 percentage point increase in occupancy, driven by the continued recovery of the economy and travel industry and improvement from Sonoma Mission Inn and Ventana Inn, which were under construction in 2004. RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT SEGMENT The following tables show the performance factors used by management to assess the operating performance of the Residential Development Segment.Information is provided for the Desert Mountain Residential Development Property and the CRDI Residential Development Properties, which represent our significant investments in this Segment as of December 31, 2004. Desert Mountain FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, -------------------------------- (dollars in thousands) 2004 2003 ---------------------- ---- ---- Residential Lot Sales 68 60 Average Sales Price per Lot (1) $756 $653 ------------------- (1) Includes equity golf membership Desert Mountain is in the latter stages of development and management anticipates minor additions to its decreasing available inventory.While a higher average lot sales price is projected in 2005, total sales are expected to be lower as a result of reduced inventory availability. CRDI FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, -------------------------------- (dollars in thousands) 2004 2003 ------ ------ Residential Lot Sales 353 246 Residential Unit Sales Townhome Sales 12 4 Condominium Sales 41 82 Residential Equivalent Timeshare Units 14.6 4.2 Average Sales Price per Residential Lot $ 152 $ 129 Average Sales Price per Residential Unit $1,833 $ 939 Average Sales Price per Residential Equivalent Timeshare Unit $1,825 $1,443 30 CRDI, which invests primarily in mountain resort residential real estate in Colorado and California and residential real estate in downtown Denver, Colorado, is highly dependent upon the national economy and customer demand. In 2005, management expects that unit sales will increase but the average sales price will decrease at CRDI, with approximately 53% presold as of February 7, 2005. In addition, lot sales are expected to increase in 2005. RECENT DEVELOPMENTS CANYON RANCH On January 18, 2005, we contributed the Canyon Ranch Tucson, our 50% interest and our preferred interest in CR Las Vegas, LLC, and our 30% interest in CR License, L.L.C., CR License II, L.L.C., CR Orlando LLC and CR Miami LLC, to two newly formed entities, CR Spa, LLC and CR Operating, LLC. In exchange, we received a 48% common equity interest in each new entity. The remaining 52% interest in these entities is held by the founders of Canyon Ranch, who contributed their interests in CR Las Vegas, LLC, CR License II, L.L.C., CR Orlando LLC and CR Miami LLC and the resort management contracts. In addition, we sold the Canyon Ranch Lenox Destination Resort Property to a subsidiary of CR Operating, LLC. The founders of Canyon Ranch sold their interest in CR License, L.L.C. to a subsidiary of CR Operating, LLC. As a result of these transactions, the new entities own the following assets: Canyon Ranch Tucson, Canyon Ranch Lenox, Canyon Ranch SpaClub at the Venetian Resort in Las Vegas, Canyon Ranch SpaClub on the Queen Mary 2 ocean liner, Canyon Ranch Living Community in Miami, Florida, Canyon Ranch SpaClub at The Gaylord Palms Resort in Kissimmee, Florida, and the Canyon Ranch trade names and trademarks. In addition, the newly formed entities completed a private placement of Mandatorily Redeemable Convertible Preferred Membership Units for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $110.0 million. Richard E. Rainwater, Chairman of our Board of Trust Managers, and certain of his family members purchased approximately $27.1 million of these units. The units are convertible into a 25% common equity interest in CR Spa, LLC and CR Operating, LLC and pay distributions at the rate of 8.5% per year in years one through seven, and 11% in years eight through ten. At the end of this period, the holders of the units are entitled to receive a premium in an amount sufficient to result in a cumulative return of 11% per year. The units are redeemable after seven years. Also on January 18, 2005, the new entities completed a $95.0 million financing with Bank of America. The loan has an interest-only term until maturity in February 2015, bears interest at 5.94% and is secured by the Canyon Ranch Tucson and Canyon Ranch Lenox Destination Resort Properties. As a result of these transactions, we received proceeds of approximately $91.9 million, which was used to pay down or defease debt related to our previous investment in the Properties and to pay down our credit facility. JOINT VENTURES On November 10, 2004, we contributed nine of our office properties to a limited partnership in which we initially had a 40% interest and a fund advised by JP Morgan Fleming Asset Management, or JPM, has a 60% interest. The office properties contributed to the partnership are The Crescent (two Office Properties) in Dallas, Texas and Houston Center (four Office Properties) and Post Oak Central (three Office Properties) both in Houston, Texas. The Office Properties were valued at $897.0 million. This transaction generated net proceeds of approximately $290.0 million after the pay off of the JP Morgan Mortgage Note, pay down of a portion of Fleet Fund I Term Loan and defeasance of a portion of LaSalle Note I. The joint venture was accounted for as a partial sale of the Office Properties, resulting in a net gain of approximately $194.1 million. On December 23, 2004, an affiliate of General Electric Pension Fund, which we refer to as GE, purchased a 16.15% interest in the partnership from us, reducing our ownership interest to 23.85%. This transaction generated net proceeds of approximately $49.0 million and a net gain of $56.7 million. The net proceeds from both transactions were used to pay off the remaining portion of the Fleet Fund I Term Loan and pay down our credit facility. We incurred debt pre-payment penalties of approximately $35.0 million relating to the early extinguishment of the JP Morgan Mortgage Note and the partial defeasance of LaSalle Note I, which is reflected in the "Extinguishment of debt" line item in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. On November 23, 2004, we contributed two of our office properties to a limited partnership in which we have a 23.85% interest and a fund advised by JPM has a 76.15% interest. The two office properties contributed to the partnership are Fountain Place and Trammell Crow Center, both in Dallas, Texas. The Office Properties were valued at $320.5 million. This transaction generated net proceeds of approximately $71.5 million after the pay off of the Lehman Capital Note. The joint venture was accounted for as a partial sale of the Office Properties, resulting in a net gain of approximately $14.9 million. The net proceeds from this transaction were used to pay down a portion of our credit facility. On February 24, 2005, we contributed 1301 McKinney Street and an adjacent parking garage, subject to the Morgan Stanley Mortgage Capital Inc. Note, to a limited partnership in which we have a 23.85% interest, a fund advised by JPM has a 60% interest and GE has a 16.15% interest. The property was valued at $106.0 million and the transaction generated net proceeds to us of approximately $33.4 million which were used to pay down our credit facility. 31 As a result of GE's purchase of an interest in the first partnership, GE serves along with us as general partner and we serve as the sole and managing general partner of the second and third partnerships. Each of the Office Properties contributed to the partnerships is owned by a separate limited partnership. Each of those property partnerships (excluding Trammell Crow Center) has entered into a separate leasing and management agreement with us, and, in the case of Trammell Crow Center, the property partnership also has entered into a management oversight agreement and a mortgage servicing agreement with us. We have no commitment to reinvest the cash proceeds back into the joint venture. None of the mortgage financing at the joint venture level is guaranteed by us. We account for our interest in these partnerships as unconsolidated equity investments. TEMPERATURE-CONTROLLED LOGISTICS As of December 31, 2004, the Temperature-Controlled Logistics Segment consisted of our 31.7% interest in AmeriCold.AmeriCold operates 103 facilities, of which 87 are wholly-owned, one is partially-owned and fifteen are managed for outside owners. We account for our interest in AmeriCold as an unconsolidated equity investment. On November 18, 2004, Vornado Crescent Portland Partnership, the partnership through which we owned our 40% interest in AmeriCold, sold a 20.7% interest in AmeriCold to The Yucaipa Companies for $145.0 million, resulting in a gain of approximately $12.3 million, net of transaction costs, to us. In addition, Yucaipa will assist in the management of AmeriCold and may earn a promote of up to 20% of the increase in value through December 31, 2007. The promote is payable out of the remaining outstanding common shares in AmeriCold, including the common shares held by us, and limited to 10% of these remaining common shares. Immediately following this transaction, Vornado Crescent Portland Partnership, or VCPP, dissolved and, after the payment of all of its liabilities, distributed its remaining assets to its partners. The assets distributed to us consisted of common shares, representing an approximately 31.7% interest in AmeriCold, cash of approximately $34.3 million and a note receivable of approximately $8.0 million. In connection with the dissolution of the partnership, Vornado Realty L.P., or Vornado, agreed to terminate the preferential allocation payable to it under the partnership agreement. In consideration of this, we agreed to pay Vornado an annual management fee of $4.5 million, payable only out of dividends we receive from AmeriCold and proceeds from sales of the common shares of AmeriCold that we own. Unpaid annual management fees will accrue without interest. The amount of the annual management fee will be reduced in proportion to any sales by us of our interest in AmeriCold. We also agreed to pay Vornado, from the proceeds of any sales of the common shares of AmeriCold that we own, a termination fee equal to the product of $23.8 million and the percentage reduction in our ownership of AmeriCold, as of November 18, 2004, represented by the sale. Our obligation to pay the annual management fee and the termination fee will end on October 30, 2027, or, if earlier, the date on which we sell all of the common shares of AmeriCold that we own. On November 4, 2004, AmeriCold purchased 100% of the ownership interests in its tenant, AmeriCold Logistics, for approximately $47.7 million. The purchase was funded by a contribution from AmeriCold's owner, VCPP, which funded its contribution through a loan from Vornado. Prior to the consummation of this transaction, AmeriCold Logistics leased the Temperature-Controlled Logistics Properties from AmeriCold under three triple-net master leases. Under the terms of the leases, AmeriCold Logistics was permitted to defer a portion of the rent payable to AmeriCold. As of November 4, 2004, AmeriCold's deferred rent balance from AmeriCold Logistics was $125.1 million, of which our portion was $50.0 million. For each of the years ended December 31, 2004, 2003, and 2002, we recognized rental income from AmeriCold Logistics when earned and collected and, accordingly, did not recognize any of the rent deferred during those years as equity in net income of AmeriCold. In connection with the purchase of AmeriCold Logistics by AmeriCold, the leases were terminated and all deferred rent was cancelled. On November 4, 2004, AmeriCold also purchased 100% of the ownership interests in Vornado Crescent and KC Quarry, L.L.C., or VCQ, for approximately $24.9 million. AmeriCold used a cash contribution from its owner, of which our portion was approximately $9.9 million, to fund the purchase. As a result of our 56% ownership interest in VCQ, we received proceeds from the sale of VCQ of approximately $13.2 million. On February 5, 2004, AmeriCold completed a $254.4 million mortgage financing with Morgan Stanley Mortgage Capital Inc., secured by 21 of its owned and seven of its leased temperature-controlled logistics properties. The loan matures in April 2009, bears interest at LIBOR plus 295 basis points (with a LIBOR floor of 1.5% with respect to $54.4 million of the loan) and requires principal payments of $5.0 million annually. The net proceeds to AmeriCold were approximately $225.0 million, after closing costs and the repayment of approximately $12.9 million in existing mortgages. On February 6, 2004, AmeriCold distributed cash of approximately $90.0 million to us. 32 ASSET PURCHASES During the year ended December 31, 2004 and through February 2005, we completed the following acquisitions: (in millions) PURCHASE DATE PROPERTY LOCATION PRICE ----------------- ----------------------------------------------------------- ------------------- ----------------- February 7, 2005 The Exchange Building - Class A Office Property Seattle, Washington $ 52.5 (1) December 29, 2004 Peakview Tower - Class A Office Property Denver, Colorado $ 47.5 (1) December 21, 2004 1301 McKinney Street - Class A Office Property Houston, Texas $ 101.0 (2) December 15, 2004 One Live Oak - Class A Office Property Atlanta, Georgia $ 31.0 (1) August 6, 2004 The Alhambra - Two Class A Office Properties Miami, Florida $ 72.3 (3) March 31, 2004 Dupont Centre - Class A Office Property Irvine, California $ 54.3 (4) Jan - May 2004 Hughes Center - Six Class A Office Properties, Seven Retail Parcels, and 12.85 acres undeveloped land Las Vegas, Nevada $ 203.6 (5) (6) ------------------------------ (1) The acquisition was funded by a draw on our credit facility.The property is wholly-owned.

The primary components of the increase in total property revenues are discussed below. - Office Property revenues increased $8.1 million, or 1.7%, to $484.0 million, primarily due to: - an increase of $48.7 million from the acquisitions of The Colonnade in August 2003, the Hughes Center Properties in December 2003 through May 2004, the Dupont Centre in March 2004 , The Alhambra in August 2004, and 1301 McKinney Street, One Live Oak and Peakview Tower in December 2004; and - an increase of $3.8 million resulting from third party management services and related direct expense reimbursements; partially offset by - a decrease of $21.6 million due to the joint venture of The Crescent, Trammell Crow Center, Fountain Place, Houston Center and Post Oak Central in November 2004; - a decrease of $21.1 million from the 43 consolidated Office Properties (excluding 2003 and 2004 acquisitions, dispositions and properties held for sale) that we owned or had an interest in, primarily due to a decrease in full service weighted average rental rates, a 0.5 percentage point decline in average occupancy (from 83.2% to 82.7%), a decrease in recoveries due to expense reductions and base year rollover of significant customers, and a decline in net parking revenues; - a decrease of $1.1 million due to nonrecurring revenue earned in 2003; and - a decrease of $0.7 million in net lease termination fees (from $9.7 million to $9.0 million). - Resort/Hotel Property revenues increased $9.5 million, or 5.5%, to $183.5 million, primarily due to: - an increase of $8.7 million at the luxury and destination fitness resort Properties related to a 10% increase in revenue per available room (from $475 to $521) as a result of an 8% increase in average daily rate (from $661 to $713) and a 3 percentage point increase in occupancy (from 76% to 79%); and - an increase of $1.1 million at the Resort Properties primarily related to an increase in food and beverage and spa revenue of $1.7 million, partially offset by a 2% decrease in revenue per available room (from $174 to $171) as a result of a 2 percentage point decrease in occupancy(from 62% to 60%) related to the renovation of 97 historic inn rooms at the Sonoma Mission Inn, which were out of service for the first six months of 2004, and the renovation of 13 suites at the Ventana Inn, which were out of service in the second and third quarters of 2004; partially offset by - a decrease of $0.3 million at the business class hotel Properties related to a 4% decrease in revenue per available room (from $76 to $73) as a result of a 2% decrease in average daily rate (from $111 to $109) and a 1 percentage point decrease in occupancy (from 68% to 67%) partially offset by a $0.5 million increase in food and beverage revenue. - Residential Development Property revenues increased $89.4 million, or 40.3%, to $311.2 million, primarily due to: - an increase of $65.6 million in CRDI revenues related to product mix in lots and units available for sale in 2004 versus 2003, primarily at the Old Greenwood timeshare project and Gray's Crossing lot project in Tahoe, California and the Horizon Pass project in Bachelor Gulch, Colorado, which had sales in 2004 but none for the year ended December 31, 2003 as the projects were not available for sale; partially offset by the Old Greenwood lot project in Tahoe, California, the Cresta project in Arrowhead, Colorado, the Creekside at Riverfront Park project in Denver, Colorado, and the One Vendue project in Charleston, South Carolina, which had reduced or no sales in 2004; - an increase of $13.4 million in DMDC revenues related to product mix and increased lots sales (from 60 to 68); - An increase of $8.2 million in other revenue at DMDC and CRDI. The increase at DMDC is primarily due to a settlement for partial reimbursement of construction remediation costs and an increase in membership transfer fees, and at CRDI is primarily due to restaurant revenues in Denver, Colorado, beginning in the fourth quarter of 2003; and - An increase of $4.8 million in club revenue at DMDC and CRDI. The increase at DMDC is primarily due to increased membership levels and an increase in dues, and at CRDI is primarily due to the addition of a golf course in Truckee, California and the full impact in 2004 of the sale of club memberships at the Tahoe Mountain Resorts property, which began selling memberships in mid-2003; partially offset by 36 - a decrease of $1.7 million in other revenue due to interest income recorded in 2003 for our note receivable with the Woodlands entities which was sold in December 2003. PROPERTY EXPENSES Total property expenses increased $94.2 million, or 16.6%, to $662.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2004, as compared to $567.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2003.

COMPARISON OF THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2003, TO THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2002 The following comparison of the results of operations for the year ended December 31, 2003, and for the year ended December 31, 2002, reflects the consolidation of eight of the Resort/Hotel Properties and three of the Residential Development Properties commencing on February 14, 2002, as a result of the COPI transaction. Prior to February 14, 2002, the results of operations of the Resort/Hotel Properties were reflected in our consolidated financial statements as lease payments and as equity in net income for the Residential Development Properties. Because the results of operations of these Properties are consolidated for the full period in 2003, as compared to a partial period in 2002, our financial statements do not provide a direct comparison of the results of operations of the Resort/Hotel Properties or the Residential Development Properties for the full periods in 2003 and 2002. PROPERTY REVENUES Total property revenues decreased $61.3 million, or 6.6%, to $871.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2003, as compared to $933.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2002. The components of the decrease in total revenues are discussed below. - Office Property revenues decreased $41.2 million, or 8.0%, to $475.9 million, primarily due to: - a decrease of $27.7 million from the 53 consolidated Office Properties (excluding 2002 and 2003 acquisitions and properties held for sale) that we owned or had an interest in, primarily due a 4.6 percentage point decline in occupancy (from 89.4% to 84.8%) resulting in decreases in both rental revenue and operating expense recoveries and decreases in net parking revenues; - a decrease of $23.6 million resulting from the contribution of two Office Properties to joint ventures in third quarter 2002; - a decrease of $5.0 million related to net insurance proceeds received in 2002 as a result of an insurance claim on one of our Office Properties that had been damaged as a result of a tornado; - a decrease of $1.1 million in development revenue from the construction of 5 Houston Center in 2002; partially offset by - an increase of $11.5 million from the acquisition of Johns Manville Plaza in August 2002 and The Colonnade in August 2003; - an increase of $3.7 million resulting from third party management services and related direct expense reimbursements; and - an increase of $1.3 million resulting from deferred rent recognition for a tenant in 2003. 40 - Resort/Hotel Property revenues increased $16.9 million, or 10.8%, to $174.1 million, primarily due to the consolidation of the operations of seven of the Resort/Hotel Properties for the full period in 2003 as compared to a partial period in 2002 as a result of the COPI transaction (prior to February 14, 2002, we recognized lease payments related to these Properties). - Residential Development Property revenues decreased $37.0 million, or 14.3%, to $221.7 million, primarily due to a reduction in lot and unit sales at Desert Mountain and CRDI.

OTHER EXPENSES Other expenses increased $3.5 million, or 0.9%, to $374.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2003, as compared to $371.1 million the year ended December 31, 2002. The primary components of the increase in other expenses are discussed below. - Depreciation expense increased $15.0 million, or 11.6%, to $144.2 million in 2003, primarily due to: - $13.1 million increase in Office Property depreciation, due to: - $15.1 million increase due to an increase in building improvements, lease commissions and other leasing costs; - an increase of $2.4 million from Johns Manville Office Property acquired in August 2002; partially offset by - a decrease of $4.4 million due to the contribution of two Office Properties to joint ventures in 2002; and - $2.1 million increase in Residential Development Property and Resort/Hotel Property. - Corporate general and administrative expenses increased $6.9 million, or 26.7%, to $32.7 million, primarily due to increased payroll and benefits, shareholder services, Sarbanes-Oxley related costs, management information systems and insurance expenses. 42 - Interest expense decreased $6.9 million, or 3.9%, to $172.1 million, primarily due to a decrease of 0.69% in the hedged weighted average interest rate, partially offset by an increase of $73.4 million in the weighted average debt balance. - Other expenses decreased $6.9 million, or 53.9%, primarily due to expenses incurred in 2002 of: - $3.8 million due to legal expenses associated with matters relating to the Office Segment; - $1.9 million due to expense related to stock option note term extensions; and - $1.8 million due to write-off of costs associated with acquisitions no longer being actively pursued. - Impairment and other charges related to real estate assets decreased $4.6 million, or 34.8%, to $8.6 million due to: - a decrease of $9.6 million due to the impairment of the Canyon Ranch Las Vegas Spa in 2002; - a decrease of $2.6 million due to the impairment of the investment in Manalapan in 2002; - a decrease of $1.0 million due to the impairment on a parcel of undeveloped land located adjacent to the Washington Harbour Office Property; partially offset by - an increase of $6.5 million due to the impairment associated with the settlement of a real estate note obligation in 2003 with an unconsolidated investment that primarily held real estate investments and marketable securities; - an increase of $1.2 million due to the impairment of the North Dallas Athletic Club in 2003; and - an increase of $0.9 million due to the impairment of an executive home in 2003 which we acquired in June 2002 as part of the executive's relocation agreement.

This charge was reported as a change in accounting principle for the year ended December 31, 2002. 43 LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES OVERVIEW Our primary sources of liquidity are cash flow from operations, our credit facility, net cash received from our Residential Development Segment and proceeds from asset sales and joint ventures. Our short-term liquidity requirements through December 31, 2005, consist primarily of our normal operating expenses, principal and interest payments on our debt, amounts due at maturity of our debt obligations, distributions to our shareholders and capital expenditures. Our long-term liquidity requirements consist primarily of debt obligations maturing after December 31, 2005, distributions to our shareholders and capital expenditures. SHORT-TERM LIQUIDITY We believe that cash flow from operations will be sufficient to cover our normal operating expenses, interest payments on our debt, distributions on our preferred shares, non-revenue enhancing capital expenditures and revenue enhancing capital expenditures (including property improvements, tenant improvements and leasing commissions) in 2005 and 2006. The cash flow from our Residential Development segment is cyclical in nature and primarily realized in the last quarter of each year. We expect to meet temporary shortfalls in operating cash flow caused by this cyclicality through working capital draws under our credit facility. However, our cash flow from operations is not expected to fully cover the distributions on our common shares in 2005 and 2006. We intend to use cash generated from 1) cash received in excess of required reinvestment in our Residential Development Segment, estimated at approximately $79.0 million and $66.0 million in 2005 and 2006, respectively; 2) business initiatives including investment land sales; 3) other income to cover this shortfall and 4) borrowings under our credit facility. In addition, in 2005 we expect to make capital expenditures of approximately $80.9 million, primarily relating to new developments of investment property, that are not in the ordinary course of operations of our business. We anticipate funding these short-term liquidity requirements primarily through construction loans and borrowings under our credit facility or additional debt facilities. As of December 31, 2004, we also had maturing debt obligations of $229.2 million through December 31, 2005, consisting primarily of our credit facility of $142.5 million and the maturity of a single asset loan of $36.8 million in December. We refinanced the credit facility in February 2005 with a new $300 million revolving credit facility which matures on December 31, 2006 and intend to refinance the Metropolitan Life Note V secured by the Datran Center with a new fixed rate facility. The remaining maturities consist primarily of normal principal amortization and will be met with cash flow from operations. Of the $229.2 million of debt maturing in 2005, $22.7 million relates to the Residential Development Segment and will be retired with the sales of the corresponding land or units or will be refinanced. LONG-TERM LIQUIDITY Our long-term liquidity requirements as of December 31, 2004, consist primarily of $1.9 billion of debt maturing after December 31, 2005. We also have $152.6 million of expected long-term capital expenditures relating to capital investments that are not in the ordinary course of operations of our business. We anticipate meeting these obligations primarily through refinancing maturing debt with long-term secured and unsecured debt and through other debt and equity financing alternatives as well as cash proceeds from asset sales and joint ventures and construction loans. CASH FLOWS Our cash flow from operations is primarily attributable to the operations of our Office, Resort/Hotel and Residential Development Properties. The level of our cash flow depends on multiple factors, including rental rates and occupancy rates at our Office Properties, room rates and occupancy rates at our Resort/Hotel Properties and sales of lots and units at our Residential Development Properties. Our net cash provided by operating activities is also affected by the level of our operating and other expenses. For the year ended December 31, 2004, the Office Segment, Resort/Hotel Segment and Residential Development Segment accounted for 49%, 19% and 32%, respectively, of our total revenues. Our top five tenants accounted for approximately 13% of our total Office Segment rental revenues for the year ended December 31, 2004. The loss of one or more of our major tenants would have a temporary adverse effect on cash flow from operations until we were able to re-lease the space previously leased to these tenants. Based on rental revenues from office leases in effect as of December 31, 2004, no single tenant accounted for more than 6% of our total Office Segment rental revenues for 2004. 44 During the year ended December 31, 2004, our cash flow from operations was insufficient to meet our short-term liquidity requirements, excluding capital expenditures not in the ordinary course of operations of our business and debt maturities. We funded this shortfall primarily with a combination of borrowings under our credit facility, cash received less required investment from our Residential Development Segment, and proceeds from asset sales and joint ventures. DEBT AND EQUITY FINANCING ALTERNATIVES Debt and equity financing alternatives currently available to us to satisfy our liquidity requirements include: - Additional proceeds from our new credit facility under which we had up to $199.8 million of borrowing capacity available as of March 1, 2005, and which may be increased by $100.0 million subject to certain market conditions; - Additional proceeds from the refinancing of existing secured and unsecured debt; - Additional debt secured by existing underleveraged properties; - Issuance of additional unsecured debt; and - Equity offerings including preferred and/or convertible securities or joint ventures of existing properties. The following factors could limit our ability to utilize these financing alternatives: - A reduction in the operating results of the Properties supporting our credit facility to a level that would reduce the availability of funds under the credit facility; - A reduction in the operating results of the Properties could limit our ability to refinance existing secured and unsecured debt, or extend maturity dates or could result in an uncured or unwaived event of default; - We may be unable to obtain debt or equity financing on favorable terms, or at all, as a result of our financial condition or market conditions at the time we seek additional financing; - Restrictions under our debt instruments or outstanding equity may prohibit us from incurring debt or issuing equity on terms available under then-prevailing market conditions or at all; - We may be unable to service additional or replacement debt due to increases in interest rates or a decline in our operating performance; and - We may be unable to increase our new credit facility by $100.0 million, as provided under the terms of the facility, due to adverse changes in market conditions. FUNDS AVAILABLE FOR INVESTMENT In addition, through the joint venture of $1.2 billion in assets, partial sale of our equity position in Temperature-Controlled Logistics, the consummated and expected sales of other non-core assets which include land sales, future sale of the Denver Marriott and Albuquerque Plaza, and the recapitalization of Canyon Ranch, all of which occurred in the fourth quarter 2004 or are expected to occur in the first or second quarter 2005, we expect to have approximately $525.0 million in liquidity for new investments, of which $481.6 million has been received to date. Of this amount, $184.4 million has been invested and $297.2 million has been used to pay down debt until reinvestment opportunities arise. 45 CASH FLOWS Cash and cash equivalents were $92.3 million and $78.1 million at December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively. This 18.2% increase is attributable to $95.7 million provided by operating activities, partially offset by $81.5 million used in investing and financing activities.

We anticipate collecting membership deposits which will be utilized to fund a portion of the development costs. (5) In October 2004, we entered into an agreement with JPI Multi-Family Investments, L.P. to develop a multi-family apartment project in Dedham, Massachusetts. (6) We have a $2.4 million construction loan with the purchaser of the land, which is secured by nine developed lots and a $0.4 million letter of credit.

(8) In April 2004, we entered into agreements with Ritz-Carlton Hotel Company, L.L.C. to develop the first Ritz-Carlton hotel and condominium project in Dallas, Texas with development to commence upon reaching an acceptable level of pre-sales for the residences. The development plans include a Ritz-Carlton with approximately 216 hotel rooms and 70 residences. Construction on the development is anticipated to begin in the second quarter of 2005. OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS - GUARANTEE COMMITMENTS Our guarantees in place as of December 31, 2004 are listed in the table below. For the guarantees on indebtedness, no triggering events or conditions are anticipated to occur that would require payment under the guarantees and management believes the assets associated with the loans that are guaranteed are sufficient to cover the maximum potential amount of future payments and therefore, would not require us to provide additional collateral to support the guarantees.

Net proceeds to us from the January 2004 Series A Preferred Offering after underwriting discounts and other offering costs of approximately $3.7 million were approximately $71.0 million.We used the net proceeds to pay down our credit facility. SHARE REPURCHASE PROGRAM We commenced our share repurchase program in March 2000.On October 15, 2001, our Board of Trust Managers increased from $500.0 million to $800.0 million the amount of outstanding common shares that can be repurchased from time to time in the open market or through privately negotiated transactions.There were no share repurchases under the program for the year ended December 31, 2004.As of December 31, 2004, we had repurchased 20,256,423 common shares under the share repurchase program, at an aggregate cost of approximately $386.9 million, resulting in an average repurchase price of $19.10 per common share.All repurchased shares were recorded as treasury shares. SHELF REGISTRATION STATEMENT On October 29, 1997, we filed a shelf registration statement with the SEC relating to the future offering of up to an aggregate of $1.5 billion of common shares, preferred shares and warrants exercisable for common shares.Management believes the shelf registration statement will provide us with more efficient and immediate access to capital markets when considered appropriate.As of March 2, 2005, approximately $510.0 million was available under the shelf registration statement for the issuance of securities. 50 DEBT FINANCING ARRANGEMENTS The significant terms of our primary debt financing arrangements existing as of December 31, 2004, are shown below: BALANCE INTEREST OUTSTANDING RATE AT MAXIMUM AT DECEMBER DECEMBER 31, MATURITY DESCRIPTION (1) BORROWINGS 31, 2004 2004 DATE ------------------------------------------------- ---------- ----------- ----------------- ------------------ (dollars in thousands) SECURED FIXED RATE DEBT: AEGON Partnership Note (Greenway Plaza) $ 254,604 $ 254,604 7.53% July 2009 LaSalle Note II (Fund II Defeasance) (2) 157,477 157,477 7.79 March 2006 LaSalle Note I (Fund I)(3) 103,300 103,300 7.83 August 2027 Cigna Note (707 17th Street/Denver Marriott) 70,000 70,000 5.22 June 2010 Morgan Stanley I (Alhambra) 50,000 50,000 5.06 October 2011 Bank of America Note (Colonnade) 38,000 38,000 5.53 May 2013 Metropolitan Life Note V (Datran Center) 36,832 36,832 8.49 December 2005 Mass Mutual Note (3800 Hughes) (4) 36,692 36,692 7.75 August 2006 Metropolitan Life Note VII (Dupont Centre) 35,500 35,500 4.31 May 2011 Northwestern Life Note (301 Congress) 26,000 26,000 4.94 November 2008 Allstate Note (3993 Hughes) (4) 25,509 25,509 6.65 September 2010 JP Morgan Chase (3773 Hughes) 24,755 24,755 4.98 September 2011 Metropolitan Life Note VI (3960 Hughes) (4) 23,919 23,919 7.71 October 2009 JP Morgan Chase I (3753/3763 Hughes) 14,350 14,350 4.98 September 2011 Northwestern Life II (3980 Hughes) (4) 10,168 10,168 7.40 July 2007 Woodmen of the World Note (Avallon IV) 8,500 8,500 8.20 April 2009 Nomura Funding VI Note (Fund VI Defeasance) (5) 7,659 7,659 10.07 July 2010 Construction, Acquisition and other obligations for various CRDI and Mira Vista projects 4,249 4,249 2.90 to 9.27 May 05 to Feb 09 ---------- ----------- ------------ Subtotal/Weighted Average $ 927,514 $ 927,514 6.96% ---------- ----------- ------------ UNSECURED FIXED RATE DEBT: The 2009 Notes (6) $ 375,000 $ 375,000 9.25% April 2009 The 2007 Notes (6) 250,000 250,000 7.50 September 2007 ---------- ----------- ------------ Subtotal/Weighted Average $ 625,000 $ 625,000 8.55% ---------- ----------- ------------ SECURED VARIABLE RATE DEBT: Bank of America Term Loan (Fund XII) (7) $ 199,995 $ 199,995 4.53% January 2006 Fleet Term Loan (Distributions from Fund III, IV and V) 75,000 75,000 6.81 February 2007 Morgan Stanley II (1301 McKinney Street) (8) 70,000 70,000 3.64 January 2008 National Bank of Arizona (Desert Mountain) 26,000 25,459 5.25 to 6.25 June 2006 Texas Capital Bank (Ritz-Carlton Hotel Construction) 10,500 10,500 4.46 July 2006 FHI Finance Loan (Sonoma Mission Inn) 10,000 10,000 6.81 September 2009 The Rouse Company (Hughes Center undeveloped land) 7,500 7,500 6.25 December 2005 Wells Fargo Bank (3770 Hughes) (9) 4,774 4,774 4.00 January 2005 Fleet National Bank (Jefferson Station Apartments) (10) 41,009 4,300 4.35 November 2007 Construction, Acquisition and other obligations for various CRDI and Mira Vista projects 147,262 49,713 4.66 to 6.25 July 05 to Sept 08 ---------- ----------- ------------ Subtotal/Weighted Average $ 592,040 $ 457,241 4.96% ---------- ----------- ------------ UNSECURED VARIABLE RATE DEBT: Credit Facility (11) $ 300,473 $ 142,500(12) 4.61% May 2005 ---------- ----------- ------------ Subtotal/Weighted Average $ 300,473 $ 142,500 4.61% ---------- ----------- ------------ TOTAL/WEIGHTED AVERAGE $2,445,027 $ 2,152,255 6.84%(13) ========== =========== ============ AVERAGE REMAINING TERM 3.7 years ----------------------------- (1) For more information regarding the terms of our debt financing arrangements, including the amounts payable at maturity, properties securing our secured debt and the method of calculation of the interest rate for our variable rate debt, see Note 11, "Notes Payable and Borrowing under the Credit Facility," included in Item 8, "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data." (2) In December 2003 and January 2004, we purchased a total of $179.6 million of U.S. Treasuries and government sponsored agency securities, or defeasance investments, to substitute as collateral for this loan. The cash flow from the defeasance investments (principal and interest) match the total debt service payment of this loan. (3) In January 2005, we purchased a total of $115.8 million of defeasance investments to substitute as collateral for this loan. The cash flow from the defeasance investments (principal and interest) match the total debt service payment of this loan. In November 2004, we purchased $146.2 million of defeasance investments to legally defease $128.7 million of this loan. (4) Includes a portion of total premiums of $6.5 million reflecting market value of debt acquired with the purchase of Hughes Center portfolio. (5) In December 2004, we purchased a total of $10.1 million of defeasance investments to substitute as collateral for this loan. The cash flow from the defeasance investments (principal and interest) match the total debt service payment of this loan. (6) To incur any additional debt, the indenture requires us to meet thresholds for a number of customary financial and other covenants, including maximum leverage ratios, minimum debt service coverage ratios, maximum secured debt as a percentage of total undepreciated assets, and ongoing maintenance of unencumbered assets. Additionally, as long as the 2009 Notes are not rated investment grade, there are restrictions on our ability to make certain payments including distributions to shareholders and investments. In December 2004, we obtained consent from bondholders of the 2009 Notes to eliminate an increase in a debt incurrence test calling for the debt service ratio test to increase from 1.75x to 2.0x as of April 15, 2005 and to clarify the definition of assets and liabilities to exclude in-substance defeased debt and its related assets. 51 (7) This loan has a one one-year extension option. (8) This loan has two one-year extension options and was transferred to a new joint venture on February 24, 2005. (9) In January 2005, we entered into a new loan with Wells Fargo for $7.8 million. The loan has an interest-only term until maturity in January 2008, with two one-year extension options, and bears interest at LIBOR plus 125 basis points. (10) This loan has two one-year extension options. (11) In February 2005, we entered into a new $300 million credit facility which replaces the previous facility. All outstanding amounts under the previous facility were repaid in full using cash on hand and proceeds from an initial borrowing under the new facility. The interest rate on the new facility is LIBOR plus 200 basis points and matures on December 31, 2006. Under the new facility, we are subject to certain limitations including the ability to: incur additional debt or sell assets, make certain investments and acquisitions and grant liens. We are also subject to financial covenants, which include debt service ratios, leverage ratios and, in the case of the Operating Partnership, a minimum tangible net worth limitation and a fixed charge coverage ratio. (12) The outstanding balance excludes letters of credit issued under the credit facility of $7.9 million. (13) The overall weighted average interest rate does not include the effect of our cash flow hedge agreements. Including the effect of these agreements, the overall weighted average interest rate would have been 7.06%. We are generally obligated by our debt agreements to comply with financial covenants, affirmative covenants and negative covenants, or some combination of these types of covenants. The financial covenants to which we are subject include, among others, leverage ratios, debt service coverage ratios and limitations on total indebtedness. The affirmative covenants to which we are subject under our debt agreements include, among others, provisions requiring us to comply with all laws relating to operation of any Properties securing the debt, maintain those Properties in good repair and working order, maintain adequate insurance and provide timely financial information. The negative covenants under our debt agreements generally restrict our ability to transfer or pledge assets or incur additional debt at a subsidiary level, limit our ability to engage in transactions with affiliates and place conditions on our or our subsidiaries' ability to make distributions. Failure to comply with covenants generally will result in an event of default under that debt instrument. Any uncured or unwaived events of default under our loans can trigger an increase in interest rates, an acceleration of payment on the loan in default, and for our secured debt, foreclosure on the property securing the debt, and could cause the credit facility to become unavailable to us. In addition, an event of default by us or any of our subsidiaries with respect to any indebtedness in excess of $5.0 million generally will result in an event of default under the Credit Facility, 2007 Notes, 2009 Notes, Bank of America Fund XII Term Loan, and the Fleet Term Loan after the notice and cure periods for the other indebtedness have passed. As a result, any uncured or unwaived event of default could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, or liquidity. Our secured debt facilities generally prohibit loan prepayment for an initial period, allow prepayment with a penalty during a following specified period and allow prepayment without penalty after the expiration of that period. During the year ended December 31, 2004, we paid a prepayment penalty of $17.5 million in connection with the early repayment of the JP Morgan Mortgage Note. There were no other circumstances that required prepayment penalties or increased collateral related to our existing debt. DEFEASANCE OF LASALLE NOTE I In November 2004, in connection with the joint venture of The Crescent Office Property, we released The Crescent, which is held in Funding I, as collateral for the Fleet Fund I Term Loan and the LaSalle Note I by paying off the $160.0 million Fleet Fund I Term Loan and by purchasing $146.2 million of U.S. Treasury and government sponsored agency securities. We placed those securities into a trust for the sole purpose of funding payment of principal and interest on approximately $128.7 million of the LaSalle Note I. This was structured as a legal defeasance, therefore, the debt is reflected as paid down and the difference between the amount of securities purchased and the debt paid down, $17.5 million, was recorded in the "Extinguishment of debt" line item in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. In January 2005, we released the remaining properties in Funding I that served as collateral for the LaSalle Note I, by purchasing an additional $115.8 million of U.S. Treasury and government sponsored agency securities with an initial weighted average yield of 3.20%. We placed those securities into a collateral account for the sole purpose of funding payments of principal and interest on the remainder of LaSalle Note I. The cash flow from these securities is structured to match the cash flow (principal and interest payments) required under the LaSalle Note I. This transaction was accounted for as an in-substance defeasance, therefore, the debt and the securities purchased remain on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. DEFEASANCE OF NOMURA FUNDING VI On December 20, 2004, we released Canyon Ranch - Lenox, which is held in Funding VI, as collateral for the Nomura Funding VI Note by purchasing $10.1 million of U.S. Treasury and government sponsored agency securities with an initial weighted average yield of 3.59%. We placed those securities into a collateral account for the sole purpose of funding payments of principal and interest on the Nomura Funding VI Note. The cash flow from the securities is structured to match the cash flow (principal and interest payments) required under the Nomura Funding 52 VI Note. This transaction was accounted for as an in-substance defeasance, therefore, the debt and the securities purchased remain on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. DEFEASANCE OF LASALLE NOTE II In January 2004, we released the remaining properties in Funding II, that served as collateral for the Fleet Fund I and II Term Loan and the LaSalle Note II, by reducing the Fleet Fund I and II Term Loan by $104.2 million and purchasing an additional $170.0 million of U.S. Treasury and government sponsored agency securities with an initial weighted average yield of 1.76%. We placed those securities into a collateral account for the sole purpose of funding payments of principal and interest on the remainder of the LaSalle Note II. The cash flow from the securities is structured to match the cash flow (principal and interest payments) required under the LaSalle Note II. This transaction was accounted for as an in-substance defeasance, therefore, the debt and the securities purchased remain on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. The retirement of the Fleet loan and the purchase of the defeasance securities were funded through the $275 million Bank of America Fund XII Term Loan. The collateral for the Bank of America loan was 10 of the 11 properties previously in the Funding II collateral pool. The Bank of America loan is structured to allow us the flexibility to sell, joint venture or long-term finance these 10 assets over the next 36 months. The final Funding II property, Liberty Plaza, was moved to the Operating Partnership and subsequently sold in April 2004. LINE OF CREDIT On October 26, 2004, we entered into a syndicated construction loan with Bank One, NA. The loan is a line of credit with a maximum commitment of $105.8 million which will be used for the development of Northstar at Tahoe and matures October 2006. No amount was outstanding under the loan as of December 31, 2004. UNCONSOLIDATED DEBT ARRANGEMENTS As of December 31, 2004, the total debt of the unconsolidated joint ventures and equity investments in which we have ownership interests was $2.0 billion, of which our share was $579.3 million. We guaranteed $4.3 million of this debt as of December 31, 2004. Additional information relating to our unconsolidated debt financing arrangements is contained in Note 9, "Investments in Unconsolidated Companies," of Item 8, "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data." DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES We use derivative financial instruments to convert a portion of our variable rate debt to fixed rate debt and to manage the fixed to variable rate debt ratio. As of December 31, 2004, we had interest rate swaps and interest rate caps designated as cash flow hedges, which are accounted for in conformity with SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," as amended by SFAS No. 138 and No. 149, "Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities - an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 133." The following table shows information regarding the fair value of our interest rate swaps and caps designated as cash flow hedge agreements, which is included in the "Accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities" line item in the Consolidated Balance Sheets, and additional interest expense and unrealized gains (losses) recorded in OCI for the year ended December 31, 2004.

In addition , two of our unconsolidated companies have interest rate caps designated as cash flow hedges of which our portion of change in unrealized gains reflected in OCI was approximately $0.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2004. 53 REIT QUALIFICATION We intend to maintain our qualification as a REIT under Section 856 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the Code, and operate in a manner intended to enable us to continue to qualify as a REIT. As a REIT, we generally will not be subject to corporate federal income tax on income that we currently distributes to our shareholders, provided that we satisfy certain organizational and operational requirements of the Code, including the requirement to distribute at least 90% of its REIT taxable income to its shareholders.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES Our discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is based on our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, and contingencies as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. We evaluate our assumptions and estimates on an ongoing basis. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. These estimates form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities where that information is available from other sources. Certain estimates are particularly sensitive due to their significance to the financial statements. Actual results may differ significantly from management's estimates. We believe that the most significant accounting policies that involve the use estimates and assumptions as to future uncertainties and, therefore, may result in actual amounts that differ from estimates are the following: - Impairments, - Acquisition of operating properties, - Relative sales method and percentage of completion (Residential Development entities), - Gain recognition on sale of real estate assets, - Consolidation of variable interest entities, and - Allowance for doubtful accounts. IMPAIRMENTS.Real estate and leasehold improvements are classified as long-lived assets held for sale or long-lived assets to be held and used. In accordance with SFAS No. 144, we record assets held for sale at the lower of carrying value or sales price less costs to sell. For assets classified as held and used, these assets are tested for recoverability when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the estimated carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized when expected undiscounted future cash flows from a Property is less than the carrying value of the Property. Our estimates of cash flows of the Properties requires us to make assumptions related to future rental rates, occupancies, operating expenses, the ability of our tenants to perform pursuant to their lease obligations and proceeds to be generated from the eventual sale of our Properties. Any changes in estimated future cash flows due to changes in our plans or views of market and economic conditions could result in recognition of additional impairment losses. If events or circumstances indicate that the fair value of an investment accounted for using the equity method has declined below its carrying value and we consider the decline to be "other than temporary," the investment is written down to fair value and an impairment loss is recognized. The evaluation of impairment for an investment would be based on a number of factors, including financial condition and operating results for the investment, inability to remain in compliance with provisions of any related debt agreements, and recognition of impairments by other investors. Impairment recognition would negatively impact the recorded value of our investment and reduce net income. ACQUISITION OF OPERATING PROPERTIES. We allocate the purchase price of acquired properties to tangible and identified intangible assets acquired based on their fair values in accordance with SFAS No. 141, "Business Combinations." We initially record the allocation based on a preliminary purchase price allocation with adjustments recorded within one year of the acquisition. In making estimates of fair value for purposes of allocating purchase price, management utilizes sources, including, but not limited to, independent value consulting services, independent appraisals that may be obtained in 55 connection with financing the respective property, and other market data. Management also considers information obtained about each property as a result of its pre-acquisition due diligence, marketing and leasing activities in estimating the fair value of the tangible and intangible assets acquired. The aggregate value of the tangible assets acquired is measured based on the sum of (i) the value of the property and (ii) the present value of the amortized in-place tenant improvement allowances over the remaining term of each lease. Management's estimates of the value of the property are made using models similar to those used by independent appraisers. Factors considered by management in its analysis include an estimate of carrying costs such as real estate taxes, insurance, and other operating expenses and estimates of lost rentals during the expected lease-up period assuming current market conditions. The value of the property is then allocated among building, land, site improvements, and equipment. The value of tenant improvements is separately estimated due to the different depreciable lives. The aggregate value of intangible assets acquired is measured based on the difference between (i) the purchase price and (ii) the value of the tangible assets acquired as defined above. This value is then allocated among above-market and below-market in-place lease values, costs to execute similar leases (including leasing commissions, legal expenses and other related expenses), in-place lease values and customer relationship values. Above-market and below-market in-place lease values for acquired properties are calculated based on the present value (using a market 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 for above-market leases and the initial term plus the term of the below-market fixed rate renewal option, if any, for below-market leases. We perform this analysis on a lease by lease basis. The capitalized above-market lease values are amortized as a reduction to rental income over the remaining non-cancelable terms of the respective leases. The capitalized below-market lease values are amortized as an increase to rental income over the initial term plus the term of the below-market fixed rate renewal option, if any, of the respective leases. Management estimates costs to execute leases similar to those acquired at the property at acquisition based on current market conditions. These costs are recorded based on the present value of the amortized in-place leasing costs on a lease by lease basis over the remaining term of each lease. The in-place lease values and customer relationship values are based on management's evaluation of the specific characteristics of each customer's lease and our overall relationship with that respective customer. Characteristics considered by management in allocating these values include the nature and extent of our existing business relationships with the customer, growth prospects for developing new business with the customer, the customer's credit quality, and the expectation of lease renewals, among other factors. The in-place lease value and customer relationship value are both amortized to expense over the initial term of the respective leases and projected renewal periods, but in no event does the amortization period for the intangible assets exceed the remaining depreciable life of the building. Should a tenant terminate its lease, the unamortized portion of the in-place lease value and the customer relationship value and above-market and below-market lease values would be charged to expense. RELATIVE SALES METHOD AND PERCENTAGE OF COMPLETION. We use the accrual method to recognize earnings from the sale of Residential Development Properties when a third-party buyer had made an adequate cash down payment and has attained the attributes of ownership. If a sale does not qualify for the accrual method of recognition, deferral methods are used as appropriate including the percentage-of-completion method. In certain cases, when we receive an inadequate cash down payment and take a promissory note for the balance of the sales price, revenue recognition is deferred until such time as sufficient cash is received to meet minimum down payment requirements. The cost of residential property sold is defined based on the type of product being purchased. The cost of sales for residential lots is generally determined as a specific percentage of the sales revenues recognized for each Residential Development project. The percentages are based on total estimated development costs and sales revenue for each Residential Development project. These estimates are revised annually and are based on the then-current development strategy and operating assumptions utilizing internally developed projections for product type, revenue and related development costs. The cost of sales for residential units (such as townhomes and condominiums) is determined using the relative sales value method. If the residential unit has been sold prior to the completion of infrastructure cost, and those uncompleted costs are not significant in relation to total costs, the full accrual method is utilized. Under this method, 100% of the revenue is recognized, and a commitment liability is established to reflect the allocated estimated future costs to complete the residential unit. If our estimates of costs or 56 the percentage of completion is incorrect, it could result in either an increase or decrease in cost of sales expense or revenue recognized and therefore, an increase or decrease in net income. GAIN RECOGNITION ON SALE OF REAL ESTATE ASSETS. We perform evaluations of each real estate sale to determine if full gain recognition is appropriate in accordance with SFAS No. 66, "Accounting for Sales of Real Estate. "The application of SFAS No. 66 can be complex and requires us to make assumptions including an assessment of whether the risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred, the extent of the purchaser's investment in the property being sold, whether our receivables, if any, related to the sale are collectible and are subject to subordination, and the degree of our continuing involvement with the real estate asset after the sale. If full gain recognition is not appropriate, we account for the sale under an appropriate deferral method. CONSOLIDATION OF VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES. We perform evaluations of each of our investment partnerships, real estate partnerships and joint ventures to determine if the associated entities constitute a Variable Interest Entity, or VIE, as defined under Interpretations 46 and 46R, "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities," or FIN 46 and 46R, respectively. In general, a VIE is an entity that has (i) an insufficient amount of equity for the entity to carry on its principal operations, without additional subordinated financial support from other parties, (ii) a group of equity owners that are unable to make decisions about the entity's activities, or (iii) equity that does not absorb the entity's losses or receive the benefits of the entity. If any one of these characteristics is present, the entity is subject to FIN 46R's variable interests consolidation model. Quantifying the variability of VIEs is complex and subjective, requiring consideration and estimates of a significant number of possible future outcomes as well as the probability of each outcome occurring. The results of each possible outcome are allocated to the parties holding interests in the VIE and, based on the allocation, a calculation is performed to determine which party, if any, has a majority of the potential negative outcomes (expected losses) or a majority of the potential positive outcomes (expected residual returns). That party, if any, is the VIE's primary beneficiary and is required to consolidate the VIE. Calculating expected losses and expected residual returns requires modeling potential future results of the entity, assigning probabilities to each potential outcome, and allocating those potential outcomes to the VIE's interest holders. If our estimates of possible outcomes and probabilities are incorrect, it could result in the inappropriate consolidation or deconsolidation of the VIE. For entities that do not constitute VIEs, we consider other GAAP, as required, determining (i) consolidation of the entity if our ownership interests comprise a majority of its outstanding voting stock or otherwise control the entity, or (ii) application of the equity method of accounting if we do not have direct or indirect control of the entity, with the initial investment carried at costs and subsequently adjusted for our share of net income or less and cash contributions and distributions to and from these entities. ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS. Our accounts receivable balance is reduced by an allowance for amounts that may become uncollectible in the future. Our receivable balance is composed primarily of rents and operating cost recoveries due from its tenants, receivables associated with club memberships at our Residential Development properties and guest receivables at our Resort/Hotel properties. We also maintain an allowance for deferred rent receivables which arise from the straight-lining of rents. The allowance for doubtful accounts is reviewed at least quarterly for adequacy by reviewing such factors as the credit quality of our tenants or members, any delinquency in payment, historical trends and current economic conditions. If the assumptions regarding the collectibility of accounts receivable prove incorrect, we could experience write-offs in excess of its allowance for doubtful accounts, which would result in a decrease in net income. ADOPTION OF NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS EITF 03-1. At the March 17-18, 2004 meeting, consensus was reached by the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force on EITF 03-1, "The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and Its Application to Certain Investments. " The Consensus applies to investments in debt and equity securities within the scope of SFAS Nos. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities," and 124, "Accounting for Certain Investments Held by Not-for-Profit Organizations. "It also applies to investments in equity securities that are both 57 outside SFAS No. 115's scope and not accounted for under the equity method. The Task Force reached a consensus that certain quantitative and qualitative disclosures should be required for securities that are impaired at the balance sheet date but for which an other - than-temporary impairment has not been recognized. The new impairment guidance creates a model that calls for many judgments and additional evidence gathering in determining whether or not securities are other-than-temporarily impaired and lists some of these impairment indicators. The impairment accounting guidance is effective for periods beginning after June 15, 2004 and the disclosure requirements for annual reporting periods are effective for periods ending after June 15, 2004. We adopted EITF 03-1 effective July 1, 2004 and it had no impact on our financial condition or its results of operations. SFAS NO. 123R. In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123 (Revised 2004), "Share-Based Payment." The new FASB rule requires that the compensation cost relating to share-based payment transactions be recognized in financial statements. That cost will be measured based on the fair value of the equity or liability instruments issued. We will be required to apply SFAS No. 123R as of the first interim reporting period that begins after June 15, 2005. The scope of SFAS No. 123R includes a wide range of share-based compensation arrangements including share options, restricted share plans, performance-based awards, share appreciation rights, and employee share purchase plans. SFAS No. 123R replaces SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation", and supersedes Accounting Principles Board, or APB, Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees."SFAS No. 123, as originally issued in 1995, established as preferable a fair-value-based method of accounting for share-based payment transactions with employees. However, that statement permitted entities the option of continuing to apply the guidance in Opinion 25, as long as the footnotes to the financial statements disclosed what net income would have been had the preferable fair-value-based method been used. Effective January 1, 2003, we adopted the fair value expense recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123 on a prospective basis. Except for the 2004 Unit Plan, we do not believe there will be a significant impact to our financial condition or results of operations from the adoption of SFAS No. 123R. We are continuing to evaluate the impact of the adoption of SFAS No. 123R as it relates to the 2004 Unit Plan. SFAS NO. 153. In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 153, "Exchanges of Nonmonetary Assets - an amendment of APB Opinion No. 29. "The amendments made by SFAS No. 153 are based on the principle that exchanges of nonmonetary assets should be measured based on the fair value of the assets exchanged. The statement eliminates the exception for nonmonetary exchanges of similar productive assets and replaces it with a general exception for exchanges of nonmonetary assets that do not have commercial substance. SFAS No. 153 is effective for nonmonetary asset exchanges occurring in fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2005. We do not believe there will be an impact to our financial condition or results of operations from the adoption of SFAS No. 153. SOP 04-2. In December 2004, the AICPA issued Statement of Position, or SOP, 04-2, "Accounting for Real Estate Time-Sharing Transactions." This SOP provides guidance to a seller of real estate time sharing interests and provides, among other requirements, that uncollectibles be reflected as a reduction of revenues rather than as bad debt expense. The provisions in the SOP are effective for financial statements for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005. To facilitate the issuance of this standard, the FASB issued Statement No. 152, "Accounting for Real Estate Time-Sharing Transactions - An Amendment of FASB Statements No. 66 and 67," on December 16, 2004 which references the financial accounting and reporting guidance for real estate time-sharing transactions to SOP 04-2. We do not believe there will be a significant impact to our financial condition or results of operations from the adoption of SOP 04-2. 58 FUNDS FROM OPERATIONS FFO, as used in this document, means: - Net Income (Loss) - determined in accordance with GAAP; - excluding gains (or losses) from sales of depreciable operating property; - excluding extraordinary items (as defined by GAAP); - plus depreciation and amortization of real estate assets; and - after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. We calculate FFO available to common shareholders - diluted - NAREIT definition in the same manner, except that Net Income (Loss) is replaced by Net Income (Loss) Available to Common Shareholders and we include the effect of operating partnership unitholder minority interests. The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, or NAREIT, developed FFO as a relative measure of performance and liquidity of an equity REIT to recognize that income-producing real estate historically has not depreciated on the basis determined under GAAP.We consider FFO available to common shareholders - diluted - NAREIT definition and FFO appropriate measures of performance for an equity REIT and for its investment segments.However, FFO available to common shareholders - diluted - NAREIT definition and FFO should not be considered an alternative to net income determined in accordance with GAAP as an indication of our operating performance. The aggregate cash distributions paid to common shareholders and unitholders for the years ended December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002 were $175.6 million, $175.5 million, and $176.4 million respectively.We reported Adjusted FFO available to common shareholders - diluted of $143.2 million, $212.6, and $238.2 million, for the years ended December 31, 2004, 2003, and 2002 respectively.We calculate Adjusted FFO available to common shareholders - diluted by excluding the effect of impairment charges related to real estate assets and the effect of extinguishment of debt expense related to real estate asset sales.We reported FFO available to common shareholders - diluted - NAREIT definition of $95.7 million, $174.8 million, and $212.1million for the years ended December 31, 2004, 2003, and 2002. An increase or decrease in FFO available to common shareholders - diluted - NAREIT definition does not necessarily result in an increase or decrease in aggregate distributions because our Board of Trust Managers is not required to increase distributions on a quarterly basis unless necessary to maintain our REIT status.However, we must distribute 90% of our REIT taxable income (as defined in the Code).Therefore, a significant increase in FFO available to common shareholders - diluted - NAREIT definition will generally require an increase in distributions to shareholders and unitholders although not necessarily on a proportionate basis. Accordingly, we believe that to facilitate a clear understanding of our consolidated historical operating results, FFO available to common shareholders - diluted - NAREIT definition should be considered in conjunction with our net income and cash flows reported in the consolidated financial statements and notes to the financial statements.However, our measure of FFO available to common shareholders - diluted - NAREIT definition may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other REITs because these REITs may apply the definition of FFO in a different manner than we apply it. 59 CONSOLIDATED STATEMENTS OF FUNDS FROM OPERATIONS FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2004 2003 --------- --------- Net income $ 172,936 $ 26,022 Adjustments to reconcile net income to funds from operations available to common shareholders - diluted: Depreciation and amortization of real estate assets 156,766 150,788 Gain on property sales, net (267,053) (8,919) Extinguishment of debt expense related to real estate asset sales (1) 39,121 - Impairment charges related to real estate assets and assets held for sale 6,008 37,794 Adjustment for investments in unconsolidated companies: Office Properties 11,601 6,254 Resort/Hotel Properties - (2,544) Residential Development Properties (228) 3,573 Temperature-Controlled Logistics Properties (2) 24,873 21,136 Other - 206 Unitholder minority interest 30,950 4,546 Series A Preferred Share distributions (23,723) (18,225) Series B Preferred Share distributions (8,075) (8,075) --------- --------- Adjusted funds from operations available to common shareholders -diluted(3) $ 143,176 $ 212,556 Impairment charges related to real estate assets (8,332) (37,794) Extinguishment of debt expense related to real estate asset sales(1) (39,121) - --------- --------- Funds from operations available to common shareholders -diluted(3) - NAREIT definition $ 95,723 $ 174,762 ========= ========= Investment Segments: Office Properties $ 268,829 $ 282,838 Resort/Hotel Properties 44,978 51,123 Residential Development Properties 31,216 88,127 Temperature-Controlled Logistics Properties (2) 31,026 23,308 Other: Corporate general and administrative (38,889) (32,661) Interest expense (176,771) (172,232) Series A Preferred Share distributions (23,723) (18,225) Series B Preferred Share distributions (8,075) (8,075) Other(4) 14,585 (1,647) --------- --------- Adjusted funds from operations available to common shareholders -diluted(3) $ 143,176 $ 212,556 Impairment charges related to real estate assets (8,332) (37,794) Extinguishment of debt expense related to real estate asset sales(1) (39,121) - --------- --------- Funds from operations available to common shareholders -diluted(3) - NAREIT definition $ 95,723 $ 174,762 ========= ========= Basic Weighted average shares outstanding 99,025 98,886 Diluted Weighted average shares and units outstanding (5) 116,966 116,676 ------------------------- (1) Extinguishment of debt directly related to the sale of real estate assets.An additional $3.5 million for the year ended 2004 of extinguishment of debt that is not related to the sale of real estate assets is included in funds from operations available to common shareholders.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK Our use of financial instruments, such as debt instruments, subject us to market risk which may affect our future earnings and cash flows as well as the fair value of our assets. Market risk generally refers to the risk of loss from changes in interest rates and market prices. We manage our market risk by attempting to match anticipated inflow of cash from its operating, investing and financing activities with anticipated outflow of cash to fund debt payments, distributions to shareholders, investments, capital expenditures and other cash requirements. We also enter into derivative financial instruments such as interest rate swaps to mitigate our interest rate risk on a related financial instrument or to effectively lock the interest rate on a portion of our variable rate debt. The following discussion of market risk is based solely on hypothetical changes in interest rates related to our variable rate debt. This discussion does not purport to take into account all of the factors that may affect the financial instruments discussed in this section. INTEREST RATE RISK Our interest rate risk is most sensitive to fluctuations in interest rates on our short-term variable rate debt. We had total outstanding debt of approximately $2.2 billion at December 31, 2004, of which approximately $188.5 million, or approximately 8.8%, was unhedged variable rate debt. The variable rate debt is based on an index (LIBOR or Prime plus a credit spread). The weighted average interest rate on such unhedged variable rate debt was 4.7% as of December 31, 2004. A 10% increase in the underlying index would cause an increase of 34.5 basis points to the weighted average interest rate on such unhedged variable rate debt, which would result in an annual decrease in net income and cash flows of approximately $0.7 million. Conversely, a 10 % decrease in the underlying index would cause a decrease of 34.5 basis points to the weighted average interest rate on such unhedged variable rate debt, which would result in an annual increase in net income and cash flows of approximately $0.7 million based on the unhedged variable rate debt outstanding as of December 31, 2004. CASH FLOW HEDGES We use derivative financial instruments to convert a portion of our variable rate debt to fixed rate debt and to manage the fixed to variable rate debt ratio. A description of these derivative financial instruments is contained in Item 7, "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Equity and Debt Financing - Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." 61 ITEM 8.

Our audits also included the financial statement schedule listed in the index at Item 15(a). These financial statements and schedule are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and schedule based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Crescent Real Estate Equities Company and subsidiaries at December 31, 2004 and 2003, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2004, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Also, in our opinion, the related financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein. As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangibles," as of January 1, 2002. As a result, the Company recorded the cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle in the consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2002, referred to above, in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the effectiveness of Crescent Real Estate Equities Company and subsidiaries' internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2004, based on criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated March 14, 2005, expressed an unqualified opinion on management's assessment and an adverse opinion on the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES ADOPTION OF NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS EITF 03-1. At the March 17-18, 2004 meeting, consensus was reached by the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force on EITF 03-1, "The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and Its Application to Certain Investments." The Consensus applies to investments in debt and equity securities within the scope of Statements of Financial Accounting Standards, or SFAS, Nos. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities," and 124, "Accounting for Certain Investments Held by Not-for-Profit Organizations." It also applies to investments in equity securities that are both outside SFAS No. 115's scope and not accounted for under the equity method. The Task Force reached a consensus that certain quantitative and qualitative disclosures should be required for securities that are impaired at the balance sheet date but for which an other - than-temporary impairment has not been recognized. The new impairment guidance creates a model that calls for many judgments and additional evidence gathering in determining whether or not securities are other-than-temporarily impaired and lists some of these impairment indicators. The impairment accounting guidance is effective for periods beginning after June 15, 2004 and the disclosure requirements for annual reporting periods are effective for periods ending after June 15, 2004. We adopted EITF 03-1 effective July 1, 2004 and it had no impact on our financial condition or results of operations. SFAS NO. 123R. In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123 (Revised 2004), "Share-Based Payment." The new FASB rule requires that the compensation cost relating to share-based payment transactions be recognized in financial statements. That cost will be measured based on the fair value of the equity or liability instruments issued. We will be required to apply SFAS No. 123R as of the first interim reporting period that begins after June 15, 2005. The scope of SFAS No. 123R includes a wide range of share-based compensation arrangements including share options, restricted share plans, performance-based awards, share appreciation rights, and employee share purchase plans. SFAS No. 123R replaces SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation", and supersedes Accounting Principles Board, or APB, Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees." SFAS No. 123, as originally issued in 1995, established as preferable a fair-value-based method of accounting for share-based payment transactions with employees. However, that statement permitted entities the option of continuing to apply the guidance in Opinion 25, as long as the footnotes to the financial statements disclosed what net income would have been had the preferable fair-value-based method been used. Effective January 1, 2003, we adopted the fair value expense recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123 on a prospective basis. Except for the 2004 Unit Plan, we do not believe there will be a significant impact to our financial condition or results of operations from the adoption of SFAS No. 123R. We are continuing to evaluate the impact of the adoption of the SFAS No. 123R as it relates to the 2004 Unit Plan. 70 CRESCENT REAL ESTATE EQUITIES COMPANY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS SFAS NO. 153. In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 153, "Exchanges of Nonmonetary Assets - an amendment of APB Opinion No. 29." The amendments made by SFAS No. 153 are based on the principle that exchanges of nonmonetary assets should be measured based on the fair value of the assets exchanged. The statement eliminates the exception for nonmonetary exchanges of similar productive assets and replaces it with a general exception for exchanges of nonmonetary assets that do not have commercial substance. SFAS No. 153 is effective for nonmonetary asset exchanges occurring in fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2005. We do not believe there will be an impact to our financial condition or results of operations from the adoption of SFAS No. 153. SOP 04-2. In December 2004, the AICPA issued Statement of Position, or SOP, 04-2, "Accounting for Real Estate Time-Sharing Transactions." This SOP provides guidance to a seller of real estate time sharing interests and provides, among other requirements, that uncollectibles be reflected as a reduction of revenues rather than as bad debt expense. The provisions in the SOP are effective for financial statements for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005. To facilitate the issuance of this standard, the FASB issued SFAS No. 152, "Accounting for Real Estate Time-Sharing Transactions - An Amendment of FASB Statements No. 66 and 67," on December 16, 2004 which references the financial accounting and reporting guidance for real estate time-sharing transactions to SOP 04-2. We do not believe there will be a significant impact to our financial condition or results of operations from the adoption of SOP 04-2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES CONSOLIDATION OF VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES. On January 15, 2003, the FASB approved the issuance of Interpretation 46, "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities," or FIN 46, an interpretation of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51, "Consolidated Financial Statements." In December 2003, the FASB issued FIN 46R, "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities" or FIN 46R, which amended FIN 46. Under FIN 46R, consolidation requirements are effective immediately for new Variable Interest Entities, or VIEs, created after January 31, 2003. The consolidation requirements apply to existing VIEs for financial periods ending after March 15, 2004, except for special purpose entities which had to be consolidated by December 31, 2003. VIEs are generally a legal structure used for business enterprises that either do not have equity investors with voting rights, or have equity investors that do not provide sufficient financial resources for the entity to support its activities. The objective of the new guidance is to improve reporting by addressing when a company should include in its financial statements the assets, liabilities and activities of other entities such as VIEs. FIN 46R requires VIEs to be consolidated by a company if the company is subject to a majority of the expected losses of the VIE's activities or entitled to receive a majority of the VIE's expected residual returns or both. The adoption of FIN 46R did not have a significant impact on our financial condition or results of operations. Due to the adoption of this Interpretation and management's assumptions in application of the guidelines stated in the Interpretation, we have consolidated GDW LLC, a subsidiary of DMDC, as of December 31, 2003 and Elijah Fulcrum Fund Partners, L.P., which we refer to as Elijah, as of January 1, 2004. Elijah is a limited partnership whose purpose is to invest in the SunTx Fulcrum Fund, L.P. SunTx Fulcrum Fund, L.P.'s objective is to invest in a portfolio of entities that offer the potential for substantial capital appreciation. While it was determined that one of our unconsolidated joint ventures, Main Street Partners, L.P., and its investments in Canyon Ranch Las Vegas, L.L.C., CR License, L.L.C. and CR License II, L.L.C., which we refer to as the Canyon Ranch Entities, are VIEs under FIN 46R, we are not the primary beneficiary and are not required to consolidate these entities under other Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, or GAAP. Our maximum exposure to loss is limited to our equity investment of approximately $57.8 million in Main Street Partners, L.P. and $5.1 million in the Canyon Ranch Entities at December 31, 2004. During 2004, we entered into three separate exchange agreements with a third party intermediary. The first exchange agreement included two parcels of undeveloped land, the second exchange agreement included the 3930 Hughes Parkway Office Property, and the third exchange agreement included The Alhambra Office Property. The agreements were for a maximum term of 180 days and allowed us to pursue favorable tax treatment on other properties sold by us within this period. During the 180-day periods, which ended on August 28, 2004, November 6, 2004, and February 2, 2005, respectively, the third party intermediary was the legal owner of the properties, although we controlled the properties, retained all of the economic benefits and risks associated with these properties and 71 CRESCENT REAL ESTATE EQUITIES COMPANY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS indemnified the third party intermediary and, therefore, we fully consolidated these properties. We took legal ownership of the properties no later than the expiration of the respective 180-day periods. ACQUISITION OF OPERATING PROPERTIES. We allocate the purchase price of acquired properties to tangible and identified intangible assets acquired based on their fair values in accordance with SFAS No. 141, "Business Combinations." We initially record the allocation based on a preliminary purchase price allocation with adjustments recorded within one year of the acquisition. In making estimates of fair value for purposes of allocating purchase price, management utilizes sources, including, but not limited to, independent value consulting services, independent appraisals that may be obtained in connection with financing the respective property, and other market data. Management also considers information obtained about each property as a result of its pre-acquisition due diligence, marketing and leasing activities in estimating the fair value of the tangible and intangible assets acquired. The aggregate value of the tangible assets acquired is measured based on the sum of (i) the value of the property and (ii) the present value of the amortized in-place tenant improvement allowances over the remaining term of each lease. Management's estimates of the value of the property are made using models similar to those used by independent appraisers. Factors considered by management in its analysis include an estimate of carrying costs such as real estate taxes, insurance and other operating expenses and estimates of lost rentals during the expected lease-up period assuming current market conditions. The value of the property is then allocated among building, land, site improvements and equipment. The value of tenant improvements is separately estimated due to the different depreciable lives. The aggregate value of intangible assets acquired is measured based on the difference between (i) the purchase price and (ii) the value of the tangible assets acquired as defined above. This value is then allocated among above-market and below-market lease values, costs to execute similar leases (including leasing commissions, legal expenses and other related expenses), in-place lease values and customer relationship values. Above-market and below-market in-place lease values for acquired properties are calculated based on the present value (using a market 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 for above-market leases and the initial term plus the term of the below-market fixed rate renewal option, if any, for below-market leases. We perform this analysis on a lease by lease basis. The capitalized above-market lease values are amortized as a reduction to rental income over the remaining non-cancelable terms of the respective leases. The capitalized below-market lease values are amortized as an increase to rental income over the initial term plus the term of the below-market fixed rate renewal option, if any, of the respective leases. Management estimates costs to execute leases similar to those acquired at the property at acquisition based on current market conditions. These costs are recorded based on the present value of the amortized in-place leasing costs on a lease by lease basis over the remaining term of each lease. The in-place lease values and customer relationship values are based on management's evaluation of the specific characteristics of each customer's lease and our overall relationship with that respective customer. Characteristics considered by management in allocating these values include the nature and extent of our existing business relationships with the customer, growth prospects for developing new business with the customer, the customer's credit quality and the expectation of lease renewals, among other factors. The in-place lease value and customer relationship value are both amortized to expense over the initial term of the respective leases and projected renewal periods, but in no event does the amortization period for the intangible assets exceed the remaining depreciable life of the building. Should a tenant terminate its lease, the unamortized portion of the in-place lease value and the customer relationship value and above-market and below-market in-place lease values would be charged to expense. 72 CRESCENT REAL ESTATE EQUITIES COMPANY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NET INVESTMENTS IN REAL ESTATE. Real estate, for operating properties, is carried at cost, net of accumulated depreciation. Betterments, major renovations, and certain costs directly related to the acquisition, improvements and leasing of real estate are capitalized. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, as follows: Buildings and Improvements 5 to 46 years Tenant Improvements Terms of leases, which approximates the useful life of the asset Furniture, Fixtures and Equipment 3 to 5 years Real Estate also includes land and capitalized project costs associated with the acquisition and the development of land, construction of residential units, amenities and facilities, interest and loan origination costs on land under development, and certain general and administrative expenses to the extent they benefit the development of land. We adhere to the accounting and reporting standards under SFAS No. 67, "Accounting for Costs and Initial Rental Operations of Real Estate Projects" for costs associated with the acquisition, development, construction and sale of real estate projects. In addition, we capitalize interest costs as a part of the historical cost of acquiring certain assets that qualify for capitalization under SFAS No. 34, "Capitalization of Interest Cost." Our assets that qualify for accounting treatment under this pronouncement must require a period of time to prepare for their intended use, such as our land development project assets that are intended for sale or lease and constructed as discrete projects. In accordance with the authoritative guidance, the interest cost capitalized by us is the interest cost recognized on borrowings and other obligations. The amount capitalized is an allocation of the interest cost incurred during the period required to complete the asset. The interest rate for capitalization purposes is based on the rates of our outstanding borrowings. An impairment loss is recognized on a property by property basis on Properties classified as held for use, when expected undiscounted cash flows are less than the carrying value of the property. In cases where we do not expect to recover our carrying costs on a Property, we reduce its carrying costs to fair value, and for Properties held for disposition, we reduce its carrying costs to the fair value less estimated selling costs. In accordance with SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets," we record assets held for disposition at the lower of carrying value or sales price less costs to sell. Depreciation expense is not recognized on Properties classified as held for disposition. CONCENTRATION OF REAL ESTATE INVESTMENTS. Our Office Properties are located primarily in the Dallas and Houston, Texas, metropolitan areas. As of December 31, 2004, our Office Properties in Dallas and Houston represented an aggregate of approximately 69% of our office portfolio based on total net rentable square feet. As a result of this geographic concentration, our operations could be adversely affected by a recession or general economic downturn in the areas where these Properties are located. CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS. We consider all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of 90 days or less to be cash and cash equivalents. RESTRICTED CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS. Restricted cash includes escrows established pursuant to certain mortgage financing arrangements for real estate taxes, insurance, security deposits, ground lease expenditures, capital expenditures and capital requirements related to cash flow hedges. ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS. Accounts receivable are carried at outstanding principal and are reduced by an allowance for amounts that may become uncollectible in the future. Our accounts receivable balance consists of rents and operating cost recoveries due from office tenants, receivables associated with club memberships at our Residential Development Properties and guest receivables at our Resort/Hotel Properties. We also maintain an allowance for deferred rent receivables, which arise from the straight-lining of rents as necessary. The allowance for doubtful accounts is reviewed at least quarterly for adequacy by reviewing such factors as the credit quality of our tenants or members, any delinquency in payment, historical trends and current economic conditions. If our assumptions regarding the collectibility of accounts receivable prove incorrect, we could experience write-offs in excess of the allowance for doubtful accounts, which would result in a decrease in our earnings. 73 CRESCENT REAL ESTATE EQUITIES COMPANY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS INVESTMENTS IN UNCONSOLIDATED COMPANIES. Investments in unconsolidated joint ventures and companies are recorded initially at cost and subsequently adjusted for equity in earnings and cash contributions and distributions. We also recognize an impairment loss on an investment by investment basis when the fair value of an investment experiences a non-temporary decline below the carrying value. See Note 9, "Investment in Unconsolidated Companies" for a table that lists our ownership in significant unconsolidated joint ventures and investments as of December 31, 2004. Upon the adoption of SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets," on January 1, 2002, AmeriCold compared the fair value of Temperature-Controlled Logistics Properties based on discounted cash flows to the carrying value of Temperature-Controlled Logistics Properties and the related goodwill. Based on this test, the fair value did not exceed its carrying value, and the second step of the impairment test was performed to measure the impairment loss. The second step compared the implied fair value of goodwill with the carrying amounts of goodwill which exceeded the fair value on January 1, 2002. As a result, we recognized a goodwill impairment charge of approximately $9.2 million, net of minority interest, due to the initial application of this statement. This charge was reported as a change in accounting principle and is included in our Consolidated Statements of Operations as a "Cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle" for the year ended December 31, 2002. OTHER ASSETS. Other assets consist principally of leasing costs, deferred financing costs, intangible assets and marketable securities. Leasing costs are amortized on a straight-line basis during the terms of the respective leases, and unamortized leasing costs are written off upon early termination of lease agreements. Deferred financing costs are amortized on a straight-line basis (when it approximates the effective interest method) over the shorter of the expected lives or the terms of the respective loans. The effective interest method is used to amortize deferred financing costs on loans where the straight-line basis does not approximate the effective interest method, over the terms of the respective loans. Intangible assets, which include memberships, trademarks, water rights and net intangible leases created by SFAS No. 141, "Business Combinations," are amortized and reviewed annually for impairment. Upon the formation of Desert Mountain Properties, L.P. in August 1997, the partnership allocated a portion of the fair value of its assets of Desert Mountain to the remaining club memberships and recorded the amount as an intangible asset. Upon the conveyance of a pipeline from Desert Mountain to the local government, we reclassified the fair value of the water pipeline from land improvements into an intangible asset, or water rights. Marketable securities are considered either available-for-sale, trading or held-to-maturity, in accordance with SFAS No. 115. Realized gains or losses on sale of securities are recorded based on specific identification. Available-for-sale securities are marked to market value on a monthly basis with the corresponding unrealized gains and losses included in accumulated other comprehensive income. Trading securities are marked to market on a monthly basis with the unrealized gains and losses included in earnings. Held-to-maturity securities are carried at amortized cost. Held-to-maturity securities consists of U.S. Treasury and government sponsored agency securities purchased in-substance to defease debt, and are included in the "Defeasance investments" line. When a decline in the fair value of marketable securities is determined to be other than temporary, the cost basis is written down to fair value and the amount of the write-down is included in earnings for the applicable period. Investments in securities with no readily determinable market value are reported at cost, as they are not considered marketable under SFAS No. 115. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS. The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, accounts receivable, deferred rent receivable, notes receivable, other assets, accounts payable and other liabilities are reasonable estimates of their fair values. The fair value of our defeasance investments was approximately $173.7 million as of December 31, 2004. The fair value of our notes payable is most sensitive to fluctuations in interest rates. Since our $599.7 million in variable rate debt changes with these changes in interest rates, it also approximates the fair market value of the underlying debt. We reduce the variability in future cash flows by maintaining a sizable portion of debt with fixed payment characteristics. Although the cash flow to or from us does not change, the fair value of the $1.6 billion in fixed rate debt, based upon current interest rates for similar debt instruments with similar payment terms and expected payoff dates, would be approximately $1.7 billion as of December 31, 2004. Disclosure about fair value of financial instruments is based on pertinent information available to management as of December 31, 2004. 74 CRESCENT REAL ESTATE EQUITIES COMPANY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS. SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," as amended and interpreted, establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities. Our objective in using derivatives is to add stability to interest expense and to manage our exposure to interest rate movements or other identified risks. Derivative financial instruments are used to convert a portion of our variable rate debt to fixed rate debt and to manage our fixed to variable rate debt ratio. To accomplish this objective, we primarily use interest rate swaps as part of our cash flow hedging strategy. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges are entered into to achieve a fixed interest rate on variable rate debt. We measure our derivative instruments and hedging activities at fair value and record them as an asset or liability, depending on our rights or obligations under the applicable derivative contract. For derivatives designated as fair value hedges, the changes in the fair value of both the derivative instrument and the hedged items are recorded in earnings. Derivatives used to hedge the exposure to variability in expected future cash flows, or other types of forecasted transactions, are considered cash flow hedges. For derivatives designated as cash flow hedges, the effective portions of changes in fair value of the derivative are reported in other comprehensive income and are subsequently reclassified into earnings when the hedged item affects earnings. Changes in fair value of derivative instruments not designated as hedges and ineffective portions of hedges are recognized in earnings in the affected period. We assess the effectiveness of each hedging relationship by comparing the changes in fair value or cash flows of the derivative hedging instrument with the changes in fair value or cash flows of the designated hedged item or transaction. As of December 31, 2004, no derivatives were designated as fair value hedges or hedges of net investments in foreign operations. We do not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes. At December 31, 2004, derivatives with a negative fair value of $2.0 million were included in "Accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities." The change in net unrealized gains of $11.8 million in 2004 for derivatives designated as cash flow hedges is separately disclosed in the Consolidated Statements of Shareholders' Equity. Amounts reported in accumulated other comprehensive income related to derivatives will be reclassified to interest expense as interest payments are made on our variable rate debt. The change in net unrealized gains/losses on cash flow hedges reflects the recognition of $10.1 million of net unrealized losses from other comprehensive income to interest expense during 2004. We estimate that during 2005 an additional $2.0 million of unrealized losses will be recognized as interest expense. GAIN RECOGNITION ON SALE OF REAL ESTATE ASSETS. We perform evaluations of each real estate sale to determine if full gain recognition is appropriate in accordance with SFAS No. 66, "Accounting for Sales of Real Estate." The application of SFAS No. 66 can be complex and requires us to make assumptions including an assessment of whether the risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred, the extent of the purchaser's investment in the property being sold, whether our receivables, if any, related to the sale are collectible and are subject to subordination, and the degree of our continuing involvement with the real estate asset after the sale. If full gain recognition is not appropriate, we account for the sale under an appropriate deferral method. REVENUE RECOGNITION - OFFICE PROPERTIES. As a lessor, we have retained substantially all of the risks and benefits of ownership of the Office Properties and account for our leases as operating leases. Income on leases, which includes scheduled increases in rental rates during the lease term and/or abated rent payments for various periods following the tenant's lease commencement date, is recognized on a straight-line basis. Deferred rent receivable represents the excess of rental revenue recognized on a straight-line basis over cash received pursuant to the applicable lease provisions. Office Property leases generally provide for the reimbursement of annual increases in operating expenses above base year operating expenses ("excess operating expenses"), payable to us in equal installments throughout the year based on estimated increases. Any differences between the estimated increase and actual amounts incurred are adjusted at year end. 75 CRESCENT REAL ESTATE EQUITIES COMPANY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS REVENUE RECOGNITION - RESORT/HOTEL PROPERTIES. On February 14, 2002, we executed an agreement with Crescent Operating, Inc., or COPI, pursuant to which COPI transferred to subsidiaries of ours, in lieu of foreclosure, COPI's lessee interests in the eight Resort/Hotel Properties previously leased to COPI. See Note 21, "COPI." For all of the Resort/Hotel Properties, except the Omni Austin Hotel, during the period from February 14, 2002 to December 31, 2004, we recognized revenues for room sales and guest nights and revenues from guest services whenever rooms were occupied and services had been rendered. Lease revenue is recognized for the Omni Austin Hotel. Prior to February 14, 2002, we recognized base rental income from leases on the properties on a straight-line basis over the terms of the respective leases. REVENUE RECOGNITION - RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT PROPERTIES. We use the accrual method to recognize revenue from the sale of Residential Development Properties when a third-party buyer has made an adequate cash down payment and has attained the attributes of ownership. If a sale does not qualify for the accrual method of recognition, deferral methods are used as appropriate including the percentage-of-completion method. In certain cases, when we receive an inadequate cash down payment and take a promissory note for the balance of the sales price, revenue recognition is deferred until such time as sufficient cash is received to meet minimum down payment requirements. The cost of residential property sold is defined based on the type of product being purchased. The cost of sales for residential lots is generally determined as a specific percentage of the sales revenues recognized for each Residential Development project. The percentages are based on total estimated development costs and sales revenue for each Residential Development project. These estimates are revised annually and are based on the then-current development strategy and operating assumptions utilizing internally developed projections for product type, revenue and related development costs. The cost of sales for residential units (such as townhomes and condominiums) is determined using the relative sales value method. If the residential unit has been sold prior to the completion of infrastructure cost, and those uncompleted costs are not significant in relation to total costs, the full accrual method is utilized. Under this method, 100% of the revenue is recognized, and a commitment liability is established to reflect the allocated estimated future costs to complete the residential unit. If our estimates of costs or the percentage of completion is incorrect, it could result in either an increase or decrease in cost of sales expense or revenue recognized and therefore, an increase or decrease in net income. At our golf clubs, members are expected to pay an advance initiation fee or refundable deposit upon their acceptance as a member to the club. These initiation fees and deposits vary in amount based on a variety of factors such as the supply and demand for our services in each particular market, number of golf courses and breadth of amenities available to the members, and the prestige of having the right to membership of the club. A significant portion of our initiation fees are deferred equity memberships which are recorded as deferred revenue when sold and recognized as membership fee revenue on a straight-line basis over the number of months remaining until the turnover date of the club to the members. Refundable deposits relate to the non-equity membership portion of each membership sold which will be refunded upon resignation by the member and upon reissuance of the membership, or at the termination of the membership as provided by the membership agreement. The refundable deposit is not recorded as revenue but rather as a liability due to the refundable nature of the deposit. The deferred revenue and refundable deposits, net of related deferred expenses, are presented in our Consolidated Balance Sheets in Accounts payable, accrued expenses, and other liabilities. INCOME TAXES. We have elected to be taxed as a REIT under Sections 856 through 860 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the Code, and operate in a manner intended to enable us to continue to qualify as a REIT. As a REIT, we generally will not be subject to corporate federal income tax on net income that we currently distribute to our shareholders, provided that we satisfy certain organizational and operational requirements including the requirement to distribute at least 90% of our REIT taxable income to our shareholders each year. Accordingly, we do not believe we will be liable for federal income taxes on our REIT taxable income or state income taxes in most of the states in which we operate. We have elected to treat certain of our corporate subsidiaries as taxable REIT subsidiaries, each of which we refer to as a TRS. In general, a TRS may perform additional services for tenants and generally may engage in any real estate or non-real estate business (except for the operation or management of health care facilities or lodging facilities or the provision to any person, under a franchise, license or otherwise, of rights to any brand name under which any lodging facility or health care facility is operated). A TRS is subject to corporate federal income tax, state and local taxes. 76 CRESCENT REAL ESTATE EQUITIES COMPANY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS USE OF ESTIMATES. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION. Effective January 1, 2003, we adopted the fair value expense recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123 on a prospective basis as permitted by SFAS No. 148, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation - Transition and Disclosure," which requires that the fair value of stock options at the date of grant be amortized ratably into expense over the appropriate vesting period. During the year ended December 31, 2004, we granted stock options and recognized compensation expense that was not significant to our results of operations. With respect to our stock options which were granted prior to 2003, we accounted for stock-based compensation using the intrinsic value method prescribed in APB Opinion No. 25, and related Interpretations. Had compensation cost been determined based on the fair value at the grant dates for awards under the Plans consistent with SFAS No. 123, our net income (loss) and earnings (loss) per share would have been reduced to the following pro forma amounts: FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, ----------------------------------------- (in thousands, except per share amounts) 2004 2003 2002 ---------------------------------------- ----------- -------- ---------- Net income (loss) available to common shareholders, as reported $ 141,138 $ (278) $ 65,959 Add: Stock-based employee compensation expense included in reported net income 2,340 1,188 - Deduct: total stock-based employee compensation expense determined under fair value based method for all awards, net of minority interest (4,270) (2,916) (4,318) ----------- -------- ---------- Pro forma net income (loss) available to common shareholders $ 139,208 $ (2,006) $ 61,641 Earnings (loss) per share: Basic - as reported $ 1.43 $ - $ 0.63 Basic - pro forma $ 1.41 $ (0.02) $ 0.60 Diluted - as reported $ 1.42 $ - $ 0.63 Diluted - pro forma $ 1.40 $ (0.02) $ 0.59 EARNINGS PER SHARE. SFAS No. 128, "Earnings Per Share," or EPS, specifies the computation, presentation and disclosure requirements for earnings per share. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common shares were exercised or converted into common shares, where such exercise or conversion would result in a lower EPS amount. We present both basic and diluted earnings per share. 77 CRESCENT REAL ESTATE EQUITIES COMPANY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The following table presents a reconciliation for the years ended December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002 of basic and diluted earnings per share from "Income before discontinued operations and cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle" to "Net income (loss) available to common shareholders." The table also includes weighted average shares on a basic and diluted basis.

SEGMENT REPORTING For purposes of segment reporting as defined in SFAS No. 131, we have four major investment segments based on property type: the Office Segment; the Resort/Hotel Segment; the Residential Development Segment; and the Temperature-Controlled Logistics Segment. Management utilizes this segment structure for making operating decisions and assessing performance. We use funds from operations, or FFO, as the measure of segment profit or loss. FFO, as used in this document, is based on the definition adopted by the Board of Governors of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, or NAREIT, and means: - Net Income (Loss) - determined in accordance with GAAP; - excluding gains (losses) from sales of depreciable operating property; - excluding extraordinary items (as defined by GAAP); - plus depreciation and amortization of real estate assets; and - after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. We calculate FFO available to common shareholders - diluted - NAREIT definition in the same manner, except that Net Income (Loss) is replaced by Net Income (Loss) Available to Common Shareholders and we include the effect of Operating Partnership unitholder minority interests. 79 CRESCENT REAL ESTATE EQUITIES COMPANY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NAREIT developed FFO as a relative measure of performance of an equity REIT to recognize that income-producing real estate historically has not depreciated on the basis determined under GAAP. We consider FFO available to common shareholders - diluted - NAREIT definition and FFO appropriate measures of performance for an equity REIT and for its investment segments. However, FFO available to common shareholders - diluted - NAREIT definition and FFO should not be considered as alternatives to net income determined in accordance with GAAP as an indication of our operating performance. Our measures of FFO available to common shareholders - diluted - NAREIT definition and FFO may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other REITs if those REITs apply the definition of FFO in a different manner than we apply it. We calculate Adjusted FFO available to common shareholders - diluted by excluding the effect of impairment charges related to real estate assets and the effect of extinguishment of debt expense related to real estate asset sales. Selected financial information related to each segment for the three years ended December 31, 2004, 2003, and 2002, and total assets, consolidated property level financing, consolidated other liabilities, and minority interests for each of the segments at December 31, 2004 and 2003, are presented in the following tables: FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2004 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- TEMPERATURE- RESIDENTIAL CONTROLLED SELECTED FINANCIAL INFORMATION: OFFICE RESORT/HOTEL DEVELOPMENT LOGISTICS CORPORATE (in thousands) SEGMENT(1) SEGMENT SEGMENT(2) SEGMENT AND OTHER(3) TOTAL ------------------------------------------- ---------- ------------ ----------- ------------ ------------ --------- Total Property revenue $ 484,049 $ 183,515 $ 311,197 $ -

The note provides for payments of principal of $0.5 million due in December 2004, annual installments of $1.0 million each due beginning August 2005 through August 2008, and $1.1 million due at maturity in August 2009 and does not bear interest. (2) This sale also generated a note receivable in the amount of $11.8 million, with annual installments of principal and interest payments beginning June 27, 2004, through maturity on June 27, 2010. The principal payment amounts are calculated based upon a 20-year amortization and the interest rate is 4% for the first two years and thereafter the prime rate, as defined in the note, through maturity. (3) In addition to the $1.9 million net cash proceeds, we also received a promissory note for $7.5 million with an interest rate of 6.5%, payable quarterly and maturing on October 1, 2007, of which $5.6 million was outstanding at December 31, 2004. In addition, we have a $2.4 million construction loan with the purchaser of the land, which is secured by nine developed lots and a $0.4 million letter of credit. As of December 31, 2004, approximately $1.2 million was outstanding under this loan. (4) We recorded a $1.0 million impairment during the year ended December 31, 2002 on this parcel of undeveloped land. (5) Under the terms of the purchase and sale contract, the purchaser has options to purchase two additional parcels of undeveloped land from us. The first parcel is comprised of approximately 3.47 acres and has a purchase option closing deadline of June 2005. Under the terms of the contract, we are leasing this parcel to the purchaser from December 2002 through June 2005. The purchase option closing deadline for the second parcel of approximately 1.59 acres is June 2007. OFFICE SEGMENT FOUNTAIN PLACE TRANSACTION On June 28, 2004, we completed a transaction related to the Fountain Place Office Property with Crescent FP Investors, L.P., which we refer to as FP Investors, a limited partnership that was owned 99.9% by LB FP L.L.C., an affiliate of Lehman Brothers Holding, Inc., (we refer to the affiliate as Lehman), and 0.1% by us. In the transaction, the Fountain Place Office Property was sold to FP Investors for $168.2 million, including the assumption by FP Investors of a new $90.0 million loan from Lehman Capital. We received net proceeds of approximately $78.2 million. 87 CRESCENT REAL ESTATE EQUITIES COMPANY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Included in the terms of this transaction was a provision which provided Lehman the unconditional right to require us to purchase Lehman's interest in FP Investors for an agreed upon fair value of $79.9 million at any time until November 30, 2004. For GAAP purposes, under SFAS No. 66, this unconditional right, or contingency, results in the transaction requiring accounting associated with a financing transaction. As a result, no gain was recorded on the transaction. We paid 99.9% of the distributable funds from the Office Property to Lehman, which was recorded in the "Interest expense" line item in our Consolidated Statements of Operations. As a result of the joint venture of this property on November 23, 2004, Lehman's unconditional right to require us to repurchase Lehman's interest in FP Investors was terminated and the $79.9 million obligation was repaid. As a result of the November 23, 2004 transaction, we have determined the June 28, 2004 transaction will also be reported as a financing transaction for tax purposes. THE WOODLANDS During the year ended December 31, 2002, The Woodlands Commercial Properties Company, L.P., an unconsolidated company, or Woodlands CPC, sold three office properties and its 50% interest in one industrial property located within The Woodlands, Texas. The sales generated net proceeds, after the repayment of debt, of approximately $12.1 million, of which our portion was approximately $6.4 million. The sales generated a net gain of approximately $13.5 million, of which our portion was approximately $7.1 million. The proceeds were used primarily to pay down our credit facility. On December 19, 2002, the Woodlands CPC sold its 50% interest in the Woodlands Mall partnership located in The Woodlands, Texas. The sale generated net proceeds of approximately $38.4 million, of which our 52.5% interest was approximately $20.2 million. The net gain on the sale of the property was approximately $33.6 million, of which our portion was approximately $17.7 million. The proceeds were used primarily to pay down our credit facility. RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT SEGMENT During the year ended December 31, 2004, the Sonoma Club was demolished in order to begin construction on a new clubhouse. Accordingly, we recorded an impairment charge of approximately $2.5 million, net of income tax, included in the "Impairment charges related to real estate assets" line item in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations. On December 31, 2003, we sold all of our interests in the Woodlands entities, to a subsidiary of the Rouse Company. The interests we sold consist of: - a 52.5% economic interest, including a 10% earned promotional interest, in the Woodlands Land Development Company, L.P., or WLDC, the partnership through which we owned our interest in The Woodlands residential development property, and a promissory note due in 2007 in the original principal amount of $10.6 million from WLDC; - a 75% interest in Woodlands Office Equities - '95 Limited Partnership, the partnership through which we owned our interests in four office properties located in The Woodlands; - a 52.5% economic interest, including a 10% earned promotional interest, in Woodlands CPC; and - a 52.5% economic interest, including a 10% earned promotional interest, in The Woodlands Operating Company, L.P. Total consideration to us for the sale of our interests in the Woodlands entities was $387.0 million, consisting of approximately $202.8 million in cash and approximately $184.2 million in assumption of debt by the purchaser. We received approximately $18.0 million of the $202.8 million cash component prior to closing in the form of partnership distributions net of working capital adjustments. The debt represents 52.5% of the debt of the unconsolidated partnerships through which we owned our interests in the Woodlands entities. The sale resulted in a net gain of approximately $83.9 million, $49.2 million net of tax, to us. We allocated $15.0 million of the total consideration, which generated a $2.3 million net loss included in "Gain on real estate from discontinued operations, net of minority interests" in our Consolidated Statements of Operations, to the sale of our interest in Woodland's Office Equities - '95 Limited Partnership, which had four remaining office properties. These Office Properties were consolidated and included in our Office Segment and were classified as held for sale. The remaining $86.2 million gain is included in "Income from sale of investment in unconsolidated company, net" in our Consolidated Statements of Operation. 88 CRESCENT REAL ESTATE EQUITIES COMPANY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Prior to the sale on December 31, 2003, $57.5 million was included in "Investments in unconsolidated companies" on the Consolidated Balance Sheets for the unconsolidated partnerships through which we owned our interests in the Woodlands entities.

JOINT VENTURES OFFICE SEGMENT 2004 TRANSACTIONS On November 10, 2004, we contributed nine of our office properties to a limited partnership in which we initially had a 40% interest and a fund advised by JP Morgan Fleming Asset Management, or JPM, has a 60% interest. The office properties contributed to the partnership are The Crescent (two Office Properties) in Dallas, Texas and Houston Center (four Office Properties) and Post Oak Central (three Office Properties), both in Houston, Texas. The Office Properties were valued at $897.0 million. This transaction generated net proceeds of approximately $290.0 million after the pay off of the JP Morgan Mortgage Note, pay down of a portion of the Fleet Fund I Term Loan and defeasance of a portion of LaSalle Note I. The joint venture was accounted for as a partial sale of the Office Properties, resulting in a net gain of approximately $194.1 million. On December 23, 2004, an affiliate of General Electric Pension Fund, which we refer to as GE, purchased a 16.15% interest in the partnership from us, reducing our ownership interest to 23.85%. This transaction generated net proceeds of approximately $49.0 million and a net gain of $56.7 million. The net proceeds from both transactions were used to pay off the remaining portion of the Fleet Fund I Term Loan and pay down our credit facility. We incurred debt pre-payment penalties of approximately $35.0 million relating to the early extinguishment of the JP Morgan Mortgage Note and the partial defeasance of LaSalle Note I, which is reflected in the "Extinguishment of debt" line item in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. On November 23, 2004, we contributed two of our office properties to a limited partnership in which we have a 23.85% interest and a fund advised by JPM has a 76.15% interest. The two office properties contributed to the partnership are Fountain Place and Trammell Crow Center, both in Dallas, Texas. The Office Properties were valued at $320.5 million. This transaction generated net proceeds of approximately $71.5 million after the pay off of the Lehman Capital Note. The joint venture was accounted for as a partial sale of the Office Properties, resulting in a net gain of approximately $14.9 million. The net proceeds from this transaction were used to pay down a portion of our credit facility. As a result of GE's purchase of an interest in the first partnership, GE serves along with us as general partner and we serve as the sole and managing general partner of the second partnership. Each of the Office Properties contributed to the partnerships is owned by a separate limited partnership. Each of those property partnerships (excluding Trammell Crow Center) has entered into a separate leasing and management agreement with us, and, in the case of Trammell Crow Center, the property partnership also has entered into a management oversight agreement and a mortgage servicing agreement with us. We have no commitment to reinvest the cash proceeds back into the joint ventures. None of the mortgage financing at the joint venture level is guaranteed by us. We account for our interest in these partnerships as unconsolidated equity investments. 89 CRESCENT REAL ESTATE EQUITIES COMPANY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 2003 TRANSACTIONS BriarLake Plaza On October 8, 2003, we entered into a joint venture, Crescent One BriarLake, L.P., with affiliates of JPM.

The sale generated net proceeds of approximately $34.7 million, of which our portion was approximately $18.0 million, and generated a net gain of approximately $6.7 million, of which our portion was approximately $3.9 million. In addition, Manalapan retained its accounts receivable of approximately $2.4 million, of which our portion is approximately $1.3 million, which was collected in 2004. The proceeds from the sales were used primarily to pay down our credit facility. This Property was an unconsolidated investment. In October 2002, in a series of transactions, we acquired the remaining 75% economic interest in Manalapan. We acquired the additional interests in Manalapan for $6.5 million, which was funded by a draw on our credit facility. Subsequently, we entered into a joint venture arrangement with Westbrook pursuant to which Westbrook purchased a 50% equity interest in Manalapan. We held the remaining 50% equity interest. During 2002, we recognized an impairment on this investment of approximately $2.6 million reflected in "Impairment charges related to real estate assets" to reflect the fair value of our 50% equity investment. Sonoma Mission Inn & Spa On September 1, 2002, we entered into a joint venture arrangement with a subsidiary of Fairmont Hotels & Resorts, Inc., which we refer to as FHR, pursuant to which we contributed a Resort/Hotel Property, the Sonoma Mission Inn & Spa in Sonoma County, California and FHR purchased a 19.9% equity interest in the limited liability company that owns the Resort/Hotel Property. We continue to hold the remaining 80.1% equity interest. The joint venture generated approximately $8.0 million in net cash proceeds to us that were used to pay down our credit facility. We loaned $45.1 million to the joint venture at an interest rate of LIBOR plus 300 basis points. The maturity date of the loan was extended to September 2005. The joint venture exercised its option to extend our $45.1 million loan for two successive six-month periods by paying a fee. We manage the limited liability company that owns the Sonoma Mission Inn & Spa, and FHR operates and manages this Property for the tenant under the Fairmont brand. FHR funded $10.0 million of renovations at Sonoma Mission Inn & Spa through a mezzanine loan in 2004, which was outstanding at December 31, 2004. This joint venture transaction in 2002 was accounted for as a partial sale of this Resort/Hotel Property, resulting in a loss to us of approximately $4.0 million on the interest sold. The joint venture leases Sonoma Mission Inn & Spa to a taxable REIT subsidiary in which we also hold an 80.1% equity interest. RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT SEGMENT On October 21, 2004, we entered into a partnership agreement with affiliates of JPI Multi-Family Investments, L.P. to develop a multi-family luxury apartment project in Dedham, Massachusetts. We funded $13.3 million, or 100% of the equity, and received a limited partnership interest which earns a preferred return and a profit split above the preferred return hurdle. We consolidate the partnership, Jefferson Station, L.P., in accordance with FIN 46, as it was determined to be a VIE of which we are the primary beneficiary. 8. TEMPERATURE-CONTROLLED LOGISTICS As of December 31, 2004, the Temperature-Controlled Logistics Segment consisted of our 31.7% interest in AmeriCold. AmeriCold operates 103 facilities, of which 87 are wholly-owned, one is partially-owned and fifteen are managed for outside owners. We account for our interest in AmeriCold as an unconsolidated equity investment. On November 18, 2004, Vornado Crescent Portland Partnership, or VCPP, the partnership through which we owned our 40% interest in AmeriCold, sold a 20.7% interest in AmeriCold to The Yucaipa Companies for $145.0 million, resulting in a gain of approximately $12.3 million, net of transaction costs, to us. In addition, Yucaipa will assist in the management of AmeriCold and may earn a promote of up to 20% of the increase in value through December 31, 91 CRESCENT REAL ESTATE EQUITIES COMPANY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 2007. The promote is payable out of the remaining outstanding common shares in AmeriCold, including the common shares held by us, and limited to 10% of these remaining common shares. Immediately following this transaction, VCPP dissolved and, after the payment of all of its liabilities, distributed its remaining assets to its partners. The assets distributed to us consisted of common shares, representing an approximately 31.7% interest in AmeriCold, cash of approximately $34.3 million and a note receivable of approximately $8.0 million. In connection with the dissolution of the partnership, Vornado Realty L.P. or Vornado, agreed to terminate the preferential allocation payable to it under the partnership agreement. In consideration of this, we agreed to pay Vornado an annual management fee of $4.5 million, payable only out of dividends we receive from AmeriCold and proceeds from sales of the common shares of AmeriCold that we own. Unpaid annual management fees will accrue without interest. The amount of the annual management fee will be reduced in proportion to any sales by us of our interest in AmeriCold. We also agreed to pay Vornado, from the proceeds of any sales of the common shares of AmeriCold that we own, a termination fee equal to the product of $23.8 million and the percentage reduction in our ownership of AmeriCold, as of November 18, 2004, represented by the sale. Our obligation to pay the annual management fee and the termination fee will end on October 30, 2027, or, if earlier, the date on which we sell all of the common shares of AmeriCold that we own. On November 4, 2004, AmeriCold purchased 100% of the ownership interests in its tenant, AmeriCold Logistics, for approximately $47.7 million. The purchase was funded by a contribution from AmeriCold's owner, VCPP, which funded its contribution through a loan from Vornado. Prior to the consummation of this transaction, AmeriCold Logistics leased the Temperature-Controlled Logistics Properties from AmeriCold under three triple-net master leases. Under the terms of the leases, AmeriCold Logistics was permitted to defer a portion of the rent payable to AmeriCold. As of November 4, 2004, AmeriCold's deferred rent balance from AmeriCold Logistics was $125.1 million, of which our portion was $50.0 million. For each of the years ended December 31, 2004, 2003, and 2002, we recognized rental income from AmeriCold Logistics when earned and collected and, accordingly, did not recognize any of the rent deferred during those years as equity in net income of AmeriCold. In connection with the purchase of AmeriCold Logistics by AmeriCold, the leases were terminated and all deferred rent was cancelled. On November 4, 2004, AmeriCold also purchased 100% of the ownership interests in Vornado Crescent and KC Quarry, L.L.C., or VCQ, for approximately $24.9 million. AmeriCold used a cash contribution from its owner, of which our portion was approximately $9.9 million, to fund the purchase. As a result of our 56% ownership interest in VCQ, we received proceeds from the sale of VCQ of approximately $13.2 million. On February 5, 2004, AmeriCold completed a $254.4 million mortgage financing with Morgan Stanley Mortgage Capital Inc., secured by 21 of its owned and seven of its leased temperature-controlled logistics properties. The loan matures in April 2009, bears interest at LIBOR plus 295 basis points (with a LIBOR floor of 1.5% with respect to $54.4 million of the loan) and requires principal payments of $5.0 million annually. The net proceeds to AmeriCold were approximately $225.0 million, after closing costs and the repayment of approximately $12.9 million in existing mortgages. On February 6, 2004, AmeriCold distributed cash of approximately $90.0 million to us. VORNADO CRESCENT CARTHAGE AND KC QUARRY, L.L.C. On January 20, 2004, VCQ purchased $6.1 million of trade receivables from AmeriCold Logistics at a 2% discount. VCQ used cash from a $6.0 million contribution from its owners, of which approximately $2.4 million represented our contribution for the purchase of the trade receivables. The receivables were collected during the first quarter of 2004. On March 20, 2004, VCQ purchased an additional $4.1 million of receivables from AmeriCold Logistics at a 2% discount. VCQ used cash from collection of the trade receivables previously purchased. The remaining $2.0 million was distributed to its owners, of which $0.8 million was received by us on April 1, 2004. On July 2, 2004 and September 29, 2004, VCQ purchased an additional $6.0 million and $5.6 million, respectively, of receivables from AmeriCold Logistics at a 2% discount, using cash from collection of the trade receivables previously purchased.

(2) In December 2003 and January 2004, we purchased a total of $179.6 million of U.S. Treasuries and government sponsored agency securities, or defeasance investments, to substitute as collateral for this loan. The cash flow from the defeasance investments (principal and interest) match the total debt service payments of this loan. (3) In January 2005, we purchased a total of $115.8 million of U.S. Treasuries and government sponsored agency securities, or defeasance investments, to substitute as collateral for this loan. The cash flow from defeasance investments (principal and interest) match the total debt service payment of this loan. In November 2004, we purchased $146.2 million of defeasance investments to legally defease $128.7 million of this loan. (4) Effective March 2005, we received a modification to this loan agreement to conform certain definitions and financial covenants with the new $300 million credit facility. The covenant modifications include elimination of increase in debt service coverage ratio and fixed charge coverage ratio. The definition changes include calculation of Capitalization Value and eliminating the effect of defeased debt and related assets from the definition of Consolidated Total Assets and Consolidated Total Liabilities. (5) In December 2004, we entered into a one-year interest rate cap agreement with Bear Stearns Financial Products, Inc. with a notional amount of $70.0 million, which limits the interest rate exposure to 3.50%. This loan has two one-year extension options. This loan was transferred to a new joint venture on February 24, 2005. (6) The outstanding principal balance of this loan at maturity will be approximately $33.4 million. (7) The outstanding principal balance of this loan at maturity will be approximately $36.1 million. (8) We assumed these loans in connection with the Hughes Center acquisitions. The following table lists the unamortized premium associated with the assumption of above market interest rate debt which is included in the balance outstanding at December 31, 2004, the effective interest rate of the debt including the premium and the outstanding principal balance at maturity: (dollars in thousands) Unamortized Effective Balance at Loan Premium Rate Maturity ------------------------ --------------- --------- ---------------- Mass Mutual Note $ 2,278 3.47% $ 32,692 Allstate Note 1,456 5.19% 20,882 Metropolitan Life Note VI 1,926 5.68% 19,295 Northwestern Life Note II 792 3.80% 8,689 --------------- ---------------- Total $ 6,452 $ 81,558 --------------- ---------------- The premium was recorded as an increase in the carrying amount of the underlying debt and is being amortized using the effective interest rate method as a reduction of interest expense through maturity of the underlying debt. (9) This facility is a $26.0 million line of credit secured by certain DMDC land and asset improvements (revolving credit facility), and notes receivable (warehouse facility). The line restricts the revolving credit facility to a maximum outstanding amount of $20.0 million and is subject to certain borrowing base limitations and bears interest at prime (at December 31, 2004, the interest rate was 5.25%). The warehouse facility bears interest at prime plus 100 basis points (at December 31, 2004, the interest rate was 6.25%) and is limited to $6.0 million. The blended rate at December 31, 2004, for the revolving credit facility and the warehouse facility was 5.48%. (10) This facility is a $10.5 million pre-construction development line of credit secured by land underlying the development project located in Dallas, Texas. (11) Our joint venture partner, which owns a 19.9% interest in the Sonoma Mission Inn & Spa, had funded $10.0 million of renovations at the Sonoma Mission Inn & Spa through a mezzanine loan. The Net Operating Income Hurdle Date, as defined in the loan agreement, is the date as of which the Sonoma Mission Inn & Spa has achieved an aggregate Adjusted Net Operating Income, as defined in the loan agreement, of $12 million for a period of 12 consecutive calendar months. (12) The outstanding principal balance of this loan at maturity will be approximately $8.2 million. (13) In December 2004, we purchased a total of $10.1 million of defeasance investments to substitute as collateral for this loan. The cash flow from the defeasance investments (principal and interest) match the total debt service payments of this loan. (14) In January 2005, we entered into a new loan with Wells Fargo for $7.8 million. The loan has an interest-only term until maturity in January 2008, with two one-year extension options, and bears interest at LIBOR plus 125 basis points. The new loan was used to repay the $4.8 million Wells Fargo Note and is secured by 3770 Hughes Parkway. In January 2005, we entered into a LIBOR interest rate cap agreement with a notional amount of $7.8 million which limits the interest rate exposure to 6.0%. (15) This facility is a $41.0 million construction line of credit secured by the Jefferson Station Apartments in Dedham, Massachusetts. (16) Includes $4.3 million of fixed rate debt ranging from 2.9% to 9.27% and $49.7 million of variable rate debt ranging from 4.66% to 6.25%. In July 2004, CRDI entered into an interest rate cap agreement with Bank of America with a notional amount of $2.2 million, increasing to $12.2 million based on the amount of the related loan. At December 31, 2004, $12.1 million was outstanding under this loan. The agreement limits the interest rate exposure on the notional amount to a maximum LIBOR rate of 4.0%. (17) To incur any additional debt, the indenture requires us to meet thresholds for a number of customary financial and other covenants including maximum leverage ratios, minimum debt service coverage ratios, maximum secured debt as a percentage of total undepreciated assets, and ongoing maintenance of unencumbered assets. Additionally, as long as the 2009 Notes are not rated investment grade, there are restrictions on our ability to make certain payments, including distributions to shareholders and investments. (18) In December 2004, we obtained consent from bondholders to eliminate an increase in a debt incurrence test calling for the debt service ratio test to increase from 1.75x to 2.0x as of April 15, 2005 and to clarify the definition of assets and liabilities to exclude in-substance defeased debt and its related assets. (19) In February 2005, we entered into a new $300 million credit facility which replaces the previous facility. All outstanding amounts under the previous facility were repaid in full using cash on hand and proceeds from an initial borrowing under the new facility. The interest rate on the new facility is LIBOR plus 200 basis points and matures on December 31, 2006. Under the new facility, we are subject to certain limitations including the ability to: incur additional debt or sell assets, make certain investments and acquisitions and grant liens. We are also subject to financial covenants, which include debt service ratios, leverage ratios and, in the case of the Operating Partnership, a minimum tangible net worth limitation and a fixed charge coverage ratio. (20) The outstanding balance excludes letters of credit issued under the credit facility of $7.6 million. 103 CRESCENT REAL ESTATE EQUITIES COMPANY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The following table shows information about our consolidated fixed and variable rate debt and does not take into account any extension options, hedging arrangements or our anticipated payoff dates.

Note II, Fleet National Bank Note or the expected early payment of LaSalle Note I. 104 CRESCENT REAL ESTATE EQUITIES COMPANY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS We are generally obligated by our debt agreements to comply with financial covenants, affirmative covenants and negative covenants, or some combination of these types of covenants. Failure to comply with covenants generally will result in an event of default under that debt instrument. Any uncured or unwaived events of default under our loans can trigger an increase in interest rates, an acceleration of payment on the loan in default, and for our secured debt, foreclosure on the property securing the debt. In addition, a default by us or any of our subsidiaries with respect to any indebtedness in excess of $5.0 million generally will result in a default under the Credit Facility, 2007 Notes, 2009 Notes, the Bank of America Fund XII Term Loan and the Fleet Term Loan after the notice and cure periods for the other indebtedness have passed. As of December 31, 2004, no event of default had occurred, and we were in compliance with all covenants related to our outstanding debt. Our debt facilities generally prohibit loan pre-payment for an initial period, allow pre-payment with a penalty during a following specified period and allow pre-payment without penalty after the expiration of that period. During the year ended December 31, 2004, except for notes prepaid there were no circumstances that required prepayment or increased collateral related to our existing debt. In addition to the subsidiaries listed in Note 1, "Organization and Basis of Presentation," certain other of our subsidiaries were formed primarily for the purpose of obtaining secured and unsecured debt or joint venture financings. These entities, all of which are consolidated and are grouped based on the Properties to which they relate, are: Funding I Properties (CREM Holdings, LLC, Crescent Capital Funding, LLC, Crescent Funding Interest, LLC, CRE Management I Corp., CRE Management II Corp.); Funding III Properties (CRE Management III Corp.); Funding IV Properties (CRE Management IV Corp.); Funding V Properties (CRE Management V Corp.); Funding VI Properties (CRE Management VI Corp.); Funding VIII Properties (CRE Management VIII, LLC); 707 17th Street (Crescent 707 17th Street, LLC); Funding X Properties (CREF X Holdings Management, LLC, CREF X Holdings, L.P., CRE Management X, LLC); Funding XII Properties (CREF XII Parent GP, LLC, CREF XII Parent L.P., CREF XII Holding GP, LLC, CREF Holdings, L.P., CRE Management XII, LLC); Spectrum Center (Spectrum Mortgage Associates, L.P., CSC Holdings Management, LLC, Crescent SC Holdings, L.P., CSC Management, LLC), The BAC-Colonnade (CEI Colonnade Holdings, LLC), 1301 McKinney Street, (Crescent 1301 Holdings GP, LLC, Crescent 1301 Holdings, L.P., Crescent 1301 GP, LLC, Crescent 1301 McKinney, L.P.); The Alhambra, (Crescent Alhambra, LLC); Crescent BT I Investors, L.P. (Crescent BT I Management, LLC, Crescent BT I GP, L.P.) and Crescent Finance Company. DEFEASANCE OF LASALLE NOTE I In November 2004, in connection with the joint venture of The Crescent Office Property, we released The Crescent, which is held in Funding I, as collateral for the Fleet Fund I Term Loan and the LaSalle Note I, by paying off the $160.0 million Fleet Fund I Term Loan and by purchasing $146.2 million of U.S. Treasury and government sponsored agency securities. We placed those securities into a trust for the sole purpose of funding payment of principal and interest on approximately $128.7 million of the LaSalle Note I. This was structured as a legal defeasance, therefore, the debt is reflected as paid down and the difference between the amount of securities purchased and the debt paid down, $17.5 million, was recorded in the "Extinguishment of debt" line item in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. In January 2005, we released the remaining properties in Funding I that served as collateral for the LaSalle Note I, by purchasing an additional $115.8 million of U.S. Treasury and government sponsored agency securities with an initial weighted average yield of 3.20%. We placed those securities into a collateral account for the sole purpose of funding payments of principal and interest on the remainder of LaSalle Note I. The cash flow from these securities is structured to match the cash flow (principal and interest payments) required under the LaSalle Note I. This transaction was accounted for as an in-substance defeasance, therefore, the debt and the securities purchased remain on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. DEFEASANCE OF NOMURA FUNDING VI On December 20, 2004, we released Canyon Ranch - Lenox, which is held in Funding VI, as collateral for the Nomura Funding VI Note by purchasing $10.1 million of U.S. Treasury and government sponsored agency securities with an initial weighted average yield of 3.59%. We placed those securities into a collateral account for the sole purpose of funding payments of principal and interest on the Nomura Funding VI Note. The cash flow from the securities is structured to match the cash flow (principal and interest payments) required under the Nomura Funding VI Note. This transaction was accounted for as an in-substance defeasance, therefore, the debt and the securities purchased remain on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. DEFEASANCE OF LASALLE NOTE II In January 2004, we released the properties in Funding II, that served as collateral for the Fleet Fund I and II Term Loan and the LaSalle Note II, by reducing the Fleet Fund I and II Term Loan by $104.2 million and purchasing an additional $170.0 million of U.S. Treasury and government sponsored agency securities with an initial weighted average yield of 1.76%. We placed those securities into a collateral account for the sole purpose of funding payments of principal and interest on the remainder of the LaSalle Note II. The cash flow from the securities is structured to match the cash flow (principal and interest payments) required under the LaSalle Note II. This transaction was accounted for as an in-substance defeasance, therefore, the debt and the securities purchased remain on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. The retirement of the Fleet Fund I and II Term Loan and the purchase of the defeasance securities were funded through the $275 million Bank of America Fund XII Term Loan. The collateral for the Bank of America loan was 10 of the 11 properties previously in the Funding II collateral pool. The Bank of America Fund XII Term Loan is structured to allow us the flexibility to sell, joint venture or long-term finance these 10 assets over the next 36 months. The final Funding II property, Liberty Plaza, was moved to the Operating Partnership and subsequently sold in April 2004. LINE OF CREDIT On October 26, 2004, we entered into a syndicated construction loan with Bank One, NA. The loan is a line of credit with a maximum commitment of $105.8 million which will be used for the development of Northstar at Tahoe and matures October 2006. No amount was outstanding under the loan as of December 31, 2004. 105 CRESCENT REAL ESTATE EQUITIES COMPANY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 12. INTEREST RATE SWAPS AND CAPS We use derivative financial instruments to convert a portion of our variable rate debt to fixed rate debt and to manage the fixed to variable rate debt ratio. As of December 31, 2004, we had interest rate swaps and interest rate caps designated as cash flow hedges, which are accounted for in conformity with SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," as amended by SFAS No. 138, "Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities - an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 133" and SFAS No. 149, "Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." The following table shows information regarding the fair value of our interest rate swaps and caps designated as cash flow hedge agreements, which is included in the "Accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities" line item in the Consolidated Balance Sheets, and additional interest expense and unrealized gains (losses) recorded in OCI for the year ended December 31, 2004.

In addition, two of our unconsolidated companies have interest rate caps designated as cash flow hedges of which our portion of change in unrealized gains reflected in OCI was approximately $0.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2004. We have designated our cash flow hedge agreements as cash flow hedges of LIBOR-based monthly interest payments on a designated pool of variable rate LIBOR indexed debt. The interest rate swaps have been and are expected to remain highly effective. Changes in the fair value of these highly effective hedging instruments are recorded in OCI. The effective portion that has been deferred in OCI will be recognized in earnings as interest expense when the hedged items impact earnings. If an interest rate swap falls outside 80%-125% effectiveness for a quarter, all changes in the fair value of the hedge for the quarter will be recognized in earnings during the current period. If it is determined based on prospective testing that it is no longer likely a hedge will be highly effective on a prospective basis, the hedge will no longer be designated as a cash flow hedge in conformity with SFAS No. 133, as amended. Hedge ineffectiveness of $0.1 million on the designated hedges due to notional/principal mismatches between the hedges and the hedged debt was recognized in interest expense during 2004. Over the next 12 months, an estimated $2.0 million of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income will be recognized as interest expense and charged against earnings related to the effective portions of the cash flow hedge agreements. FAIR VALUE CAPS In March 2004, in connection with the Bank of America Fund XII Term Loan, we entered into a LIBOR interest rate cap struck at 6.00% for a notional amount of approximately $206.3 million through August 31, 2004, $137.5 million from September 1, 2004 through February 28, 2005, and $68.8 million from March 1, 2005 through March 1, 2006. Simultaneously, we sold a LIBOR interest rate cap with the same terms. Since these instruments do not reduce our net interest rate risk exposure, they do not qualify as hedges and changes to their respective fair values are charged to earnings as the changes occur. As the significant terms of these arrangements are the same, the effects of a revaluation of these instruments are expected to offset each other. 106 CRESCENT REAL ESTATE EQUITIES COMPANY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 13. RENTALS UNDER OPERATING LEASES As of December 31, 2004, we received rental income from the lessees of 59 consolidated Office Properties and one Resort/Hotel Property under operating leases. We lease one Resort/Hotel Property for which we recognize rental income under an operating lease that provides for percentage rent. For the years ended December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002, the percentage rent amounts for the one Resort/Hotel Property were $4.7 million, $4.9 million and $4.7 million, respectively. In general, Office Property leases provide for the payment of fixed base rents and the reimbursement by the tenant to us of annual increases in operating expenses in excess of base year operating expenses. The excess operating expense amounts totaled $66.0 million, $78.9 million and $88.9 million, for the years ended December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002, respectively. These excess operating expenses are generally payable in equal installments throughout the year, based on estimated increases, with any differences adjusted at year end based upon actual expenses. For non-cancelable operating leases for wholly-owned and non wholly-owned consolidated Office Properties owned as of December 31, 2004, future minimum rentals (base rents) during the next five years and thereafter (excluding tenant reimbursements of operating expenses for Office Properties) are as follows: FUTURE MINIMUM (in millions) RENTALS ------------- ------------- 2005 $ 277.2 2006 260.7 2007 229.4 2008 201.2 2009 172.8 Thereafter 599.5 ------------- $ 1,740.8 ============= See Note 2, "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies," for discussion of revenue recognition. 107 CRESCENT REAL ESTATE EQUITIES COMPANY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 14. COMMITMENTS, CONTINGENCIES AND LITIGATION COMMITMENTS LEASE COMMITMENTS We had seventeen wholly-owned Properties at December 31, 2004 located on land that is subject to long-term ground leases, which expire between 2015 and 2080. Lease expense associated with ground leases during each of the three years ended December 31, 2004, 2003, and 2002 was $4.2 million, $2.6 million and $2.9 million, respectively. Future minimum lease payments due under such leases as of December 31, 2004, are as follows: FUTURE MINIMUM (in thousands) LEASE PAYMENTS ------------- -------------- 2005 $ 2,042 2006 2,041 2007 2,044 2008 2,052 2009 2,090 Thereafter 141,219 ----------- $ 151,488 =========== GUARANTEE COMMITMENTS The FASB issued Interpretation 45, "Guarantors' Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others" (FIN 45), requiring a guarantor to disclose its guarantees. Our guarantees in place as of December 31, 2004 are listed in the table below. For the guarantees on indebtedness, no triggering events or conditions are anticipated to occur that would require payment under the guarantees and management believes the assets associated with the loans that are guaranteed are sufficient to cover the maximum potential amount of future payments and therefore, would not require us to provide additional collateral to support the guarantees. We have not recorded a liability associated with these guarantees as they were entered into prior to the adoption of FIN 45.

(2) See Note 9, "Investments in Unconsolidated Companies," for a description of the terms of this debt. (3) We and our joint venture partner each obtained separate letters of credit to guarantee the repayment of up to $4.3 million each of the Main Street Partners, L.P. loan. OTHER COMMITMENTS On December 3, 2004 we entered into an agreement to provide a $34.5 million mezzanine loan secured by ownership interests in an entity that owns an office property in New York, New York. The loan was funded in February 2005, and we immediately sold a 50% participating interest for $17.25 million. 108 CRESCENT REAL ESTATE EQUITIES COMPANY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS In 2003, we entered into a one year option agreement for the future sale of approximately 1.5 acres of undeveloped investment land located in Houston, Texas, for approximately $7.8 million. We received $0.01 million of consideration in 2003. The option agreement may be extended up to four years on a yearly basis at the option of the prospective purchaser for additional consideration. In September 2004, we received $0.01 million of consideration to extend this option for an additional year. See Note 8, "Temperature-Controlled Logistics," for a description of our commitments related to our ownership of common shares in AmeriCold and the termination of our partnership with Vornado. See Note 21, "COPI," for a description of our commitments related to the agreement with COPI, executed on February 14, 2002, all of which have been fulfilled. CONTINGENCIES ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS All of the Properties have been subjected to Phase I environmental assessments, and some Properties have been subjected to Phase II soil and ground water sampling as part of the Phase I assessments. Such assessments have not revealed, nor is management aware of, any environmental liabilities that management believes would have a material adverse effect on our financial position or results of operations. LITIGATION We are involved from time to time in various claims and legal actions in the ordinary course of business. Management does not believe that the impact of such matters will have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations when resolved. During the year ended December 31, 2004, we received $3.7 million ($2.3 million, net of tax) in partial litigation settlement fees which was recorded in the "Residential Development Property Revenue" line item in our Consolidated Statements of Operations. During the year ended December 31, 2003, we paid $1.7 million to settle claims arising in the ordinary course of business. During the year ended December 31, 2002, we received a $4.5 million litigation settlement fee, which was recorded in the "Interest and other income" line item in our Consolidated Statements of Operations. In connection with the same litigation, we incurred $2.6 million of legal fees, which is included in the "Other expenses" line item in our Consolidated Statements of Operations. 15. STOCK AND UNIT BASED COMPENSATION STOCK OPTION PLANS Crescent has two stock incentive plans, the 1995 Stock Incentive Plan, which we refer to as the 1995 Plan, and the 1994 Stock Incentive Plan, which we refer to as the 1994 Plan. Due to the approval of the 1995 Plan, additional options and restricted shares will no longer be granted under the 1994 Plan. Under the 1994 Plan, Crescent had granted, net of forfeitures, 2,509,800 options which are fully vested and no restricted shares. The maximum number of options and/or restricted shares that Crescent was able to initially grant at inception under the 1995 Plan was 2,850,000 shares. The maximum aggregate number of shares available for grant under the 1995 Plan increases automatically on January 1 of each year by an amount equal to 8.5% of the increase in the number of common shares and units outstanding since January 1 of the preceding year, subject to certain adjustment provisions. As of January 1, 2005, the number of shares Crescent may issue under the 1995 Plan is 9,981,647. Under the 1995 Plan, Crescent had issued shares due to the exercise of options and restricted shares of 2,071,196 and 323,718, respectively, through December 31, 2004. In addition, under the 1995 Plan, Crescent had granted, net of forfeitures, unexercised options to purchase 5,872,530 shares as of December 31, 2004. Under both plans, options are granted at a price not less than the market value of the shares on the date of grant and expire ten years from the date of grant. The options that have been granted under the 1995 Plan vest over five years, with the exception of 500,000 options that vest over two years, 250,000 options that vest over three and a half years and 60,000 options that vest six months from the initial date of grant. 109 CRESCENT REAL ESTATE EQUITIES COMPANY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS In 2002, John Goff, Vice-Chairman of our Board of Trust Managers and our Chief Executive Officer, was granted the right to earn 300,000 restricted shares under the 1995 Plan. These shares vest at 100,000 shares per year on February 19, 2005, February 19, 2006 and February 19, 2007. Compensation expense is being recognized on a straight-line basis. For the year ended December 31, 2004, approximately $1.9 million was recorded as compensation expense related to this grant. A summary of the status of Crescent's 1994 and 1995 Plans as of December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002, and changes during the years then ended is presented in the table below. 2004 2003 2002 ---------------------- --------------------- -------------------- WTD.

Effective January 2, 2003, the 1995 Unit Plan was amended to make it available to all of our employees and advisors, to provide for the grant of unit options and to increase the number of units and common shares available for issuance. Prior to 2003, the 1995 Unit Plan was not available to officers or trust managers and did not provide for the grant of options. The 1995 Unit Plan has an aggregate of 400,000 common shares reserved for issuance upon the exchange of 200,000 units, which are available for issuance. As of December 31, 2004, an aggregate of 7,012 units had been distributed under the 1995 Unit Plan and we granted, net of forfeitures, unexercised options to purchase, 60,197 unit options. The unit options granted under the 1995 Unit Plan were priced at fair market value on the date of grant, vest over five years and expire ten years from the date of grant. Each unit that was issued, and each unit received upon exercise of unit options that were granted, under the 1995 Unit Plan is exchangeable for two common shares or, at the option of Crescent, an equivalent amount of cash, except that any units issued to executive officers or trust managers will be exchangeable only for treasury shares unless shareholder approval is received. 110 CRESCENT REAL ESTATE EQUITIES COMPANY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The 1996 Unit Plan provides for the grant of options to acquire up to 2,000,000 units. Through December 31, 2004, the Operating Partnership had granted, net of forfeitures, options to acquire 1,280,122 units. Forfeited options are available for grant. The unit options granted under the 1996 Unit Plan were priced at fair market value on the date of grant, generally vest over seven years, and expire ten years from the date of grant. Pursuant to the terms of the unit options granted under the 1996 Unit Plan, because the fair market value of Crescent's common shares equaled or exceeded $25.00 for each of ten consecutive trading days, the vesting of an aggregate of 500,000 units was accelerated and such units became immediately exercisable in 1996. In addition, 100,000 unit options vest 50% after three years and 50% after five years. Under the 1996 Unit Plan, each unit that may be purchased is exchangeable, as a result of shareholder approval in June 1997, for two common shares or, at the option of Crescent, an equivalent amount of cash. A summary of the status of the Operating Partnership's 1995 and 1996 Unit Plans as of December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002, and changes during the years then ended is presented in the table below (assumes each unit is exchanged for two common shares). 2004 2003 2002 ---------------------- ------------------------ -------------------- WTD.

Restricted units granted under the 2004 Unit Plan vest in 20% increments when the average closing price of Crescent common shares on the New York Stock Exchange for the immediately preceding 40 trading days equals or exceeds $19.00, $20.00, $21.00, $22.50 and $24.00. The 2004 Unit Plan also gives discretion to the General Partner to establish one or more alternative objective annual performance targets for us. Any restricted unit that is not vested on or prior to June 30, 2010 will be forfeited. Each vested restricted unit will be exchangeable, beginning on the second anniversary of the date of grant, for cash equal to the value of two of Crescent common shares based on the closing price of the common shares on the date of exchange, and subject to a six-month hold period following vesting, unless, prior to the date of the exchange, Crescent requests and obtain shareholder approval authorizing it, in its discretion, to deliver instead two common shares in exchange for each such restricted unit. Regular quarterly distributions accrue on unvested restricted units and are payable upon vesting of the restricted units. As a requirement to participate in the plan, officers were required to cancel 2,413,815 of their existing stock or unit options. Effective December 1, 2004, the Operating Partnership granted a total of 1,703,750 Partnership Units (3,407,500 common share equivalents) under the 2004 Unit Plan. We obtained a third-party valuation to determine the fair value of the restricted units issued under the 2004 Unit Plan. The third-party, utilizing a series of methods including binomial and trinomial lattice-based models, probabilistic analysis and models to estimate the implied long-term dividend growth rate, determined the fair value of the restricted units granted to be approximately $25.1 million, which is being amortized on a straight-line basis over the related service period. For the year ended December 31, 2004, approximately $0.4 million was recorded as compensation expense related to this grant. UNIT OPTIONS GRANTED UNDER OPERATING PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT During the years ended December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002, the Operating Partnership granted options to acquire 2,761,071 units, or 5,552,142 common share equivalents, to officers. The unit options granted were priced at fair market value on the date of grant, vest over five years and expire ten years from the date of grant. Each unit received upon exercise of the unit options will be exchangeable for two common shares or, at the option of Crescent, an equivalent amount of cash, except that the units will be exchangeable only for treasury shares unless shareholder approval is received. A summary of the status of the unit options granted under the Operating Partnership Agreement as of December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002, and changes during the years then ended is presented in the table below (assumes each unit is exchanged for two common shares). 2004 2003 2002 ---------------------- --------------------- -------------------- WTD.

We value stock and unit options issued using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model and recognize this value as an expense over the period in which the options vest. Under this standard, recognition of expense for stock options is applied to all options granted after the beginning of the year of adoption. During the year ended December 31, 2004, we granted 220,000 stock options under the 1995 Plan, 15,300 unit options under the 1995 Unit Plan and 62,500 unit options under no plan. We recognized compensation expense related to these option grants which was not significant to our results of operations. At December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002, the weighted average fair value of options granted was $1.05, $0.63 and $1.40, respectively. The fair value of each option is estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model based on the expected weighted average assumptions in the following calculation.

MINORITY INTERESTS Minority interests in the Operating Partnership represents the proportionate share of the equity in the Operating Partnership of limited partners other than Crescent. The ownership share of limited partners other than Crescent is evidenced by Operating Partnership units. The Operating Partnership pays a regular quarterly distribution to the holders of Operating Partnership units. Each Operating Partnership unit may be exchanged for either two common shares of Crescent or, at the election of Crescent, cash equal to the fair market value of two common shares at the time of the exchange. When a unitholder exchanges a unit, Crescent's percentage interest in the Operating Partnership increases. During the year ended December 31, 2004, there were 41,958 units exchanged for 83,916 common shares of Crescent. Minority interests in real estate partnerships represents joint venture or preferred equity partners' proportionate share of the equity in certain real estate partnerships. We hold a controlling interest in the real estate partnerships and consolidate the real estate partnerships into our financial statements. Income in the real estate partnerships is allocated to minority interests based on weighted average percentage ownership during the year. 113 CRESCENT REAL ESTATE EQUITIES COMPANY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The following table summarizes minority interests as of December 31, 2004 and 2003: 2004 2003 --------- --------- (in thousands) Limited partners in the Operating Partnership $ 113,572 $ 108,706 Development joint venture partners - Residential Development Segment 33,760 31,305 Joint venture partners - Office Segment 9,308 8,790 Joint venture partners - Resort/Hotel Segment 6,513 7,028 Other (242) - --------- --------- $ 162,911 $ 155,829 ========= ========= The following table summarizes the minority interests' share of net income for the years ended December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002: 2004 2003 2002 (in thousands) --------- -------- -------- Limited partners in the Operating Partnership $ 29,530 $ 4,984 $ 8,552 Development joint venture partners - Residential Development Segment 9,041 2,933 5,067 Joint venture partners - Office Segment (163) (576) 470 Joint venture partners - Resort/Hotel Segment (1,131) (902) (157) Joint venture partners - Other (66) - - Subsidiary preferred equity - - 5,722 --------- -------- -------- $ 37,211 $ 6,439 $ 19,654 ========= ======== ======== 17. SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY SHARE REPURCHASE PROGRAM We commenced our Share Repurchase Program in March 2000. On October 15, 2001, our Board of Trust Managers increased from $500.0 million to $800.0 million the amount of outstanding common shares that can be repurchased from time to time in the open market or through privately negotiated transactions. There were no share repurchases under the program for the year ended December 31, 2004. As of December 31, 2004, we had repurchased 20,256,423 common shares under the share repurchase program, at an aggregate cost of approximately $386.9 million, resulting in an average repurchase price of $19.10 per common share. All repurchased shares were recorded as treasury shares. SERIES A PREFERRED OFFERINGS On January 15, 2004, we completed an offering of an additional 3,400,000 Series A Convertible Cumulative Preferred Shares at a $21.98 per share price and with a liquidation preference of $25.00 per share for aggregate total offering proceeds of approximately $74.7 million. The Series A Preferred Shares are convertible at any time, in whole or in part, at the option of the holders into common shares at a conversion price of $40.86 per common share (equivalent to a conversion rate of 0.6119 common shares per Series A Preferred Share), subject to adjustment in certain circumstances. The Series A Preferred Shares have no stated maturity and are not subject to sinking fund or mandatory redemption. At any time, the Series A Preferred Shares may be redeemed, at our option, by paying $25.00 per share plus any accumulated accrued and unpaid distributions. Dividends on the additional Series A Preferred Shares are cumulative from November 16, 2003, and are payable quarterly in arrears on the fifteenth of February, May, August and November, commencing February 16, 2004. The annual fixed dividend on the Series A Preferred Shares is $1.6875 per share. Net proceeds to us from the January 2004 Series A Preferred Offering after underwriting discounts and other offering costs of approximately $3.7 million were approximately $71.0 million. We used the net proceeds to pay down our credit facility. 114 CRESCENT REAL ESTATE EQUITIES COMPANY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DISTRIBUTIONS The distributions to common shareholders and unitholders paid during the years ended December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002, were $175.6 million, $175.5 million and $192.7 million, respectively. These distributions represented an annualized distribution of $1.50 per common share and equivalent unit for the years ended December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002. Through August 2002, we held 14,468,623 of our common shares in a wholly-owned subsidiary, Crescent SH IX, Inc. The distribution amounts above include $16.3 million of distributions for the year ended December 31, 2002, which were paid for common shares held by us, and which were eliminated in consolidation. On February 16, 2005, we distributed $43.9 million to common shareholders and unitholders. Distributions to Series A Preferred shareholders for the years ended December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002, were $24.0 million, $18.2 million and $17.0 million, respectively. The distributions per Series A Preferred share were $1.6875 per preferred share annualized for each of the three years. On February 16, 2005, we distributed $6.0 million to Series A Preferred shareholders. Distributions to Series B Preferred shareholders for the years ended December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002, were $8.1 million, $8.1 million and $4.0 million, respectively. The distributions per Series B Preferred share were $2.3750 per preferred share annualized for each of the three years. On February 16, 2005, we distributed $2.0 million to Series B Preferred shareholders.

INCOME TAXES TAXABLE CONSOLIDATED ENTITIES Deferred income taxes reflect the net effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities of taxable consolidated entities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. During 2004 and 2003, the taxable consolidated entities were comprised of our taxable REIT subsidiaries. We intend to maintain our qualification as a REIT under Section 856 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). As a REIT, we generally will not be subject to federal corporate income taxes as long as we satisfy certain technical requirements of the Code, including the requirement to distribute 90% of REIT taxable income to our shareholders. Accordingly, we do not believe that we will be liable for current income taxes on our REIT taxable income at the federal level or in most of the states in which we operate. We consolidate certain taxable REIT subsidiaries, which are subject to federal and state income tax. Significant components of our deferred tax liabilities and assets at December 31, 2004 and 2003 from continuing operations are as follows: DECEMBER 31, DECEMBER 31, (in thousands) 2004 2003 -------------- ----------- ------------ Deferred tax liabilities: Residential development costs $ (23,926) $ (21,854) Depreciation (5,563) (5,196) Minority interest (4,934) (4,782) Land value adjustments (14,891) - --------- ---------- Total deferred tax liabilities: $ (49,314) $ (31,832) ========= ========== Deferred tax assets: Deferred revenue $ 28,678 $ 31,686 Hotel lease acquisition costs 1,404 3,338 Amortization of intangible assets 11,790 9,055 Net operating loss carryforwards 7,655 5,190 Impairment of assets 5,383 4,087 Related party interest expense not currently deductible 13,056 - Other 7,449 7,986 --------- ---------- Total deferred tax assets $ 75,415 $ 61,342 Valuation allowance for deferred tax assets (12,710) (12,004) --------- ---------- Deferred tax assets, net of valuation allowance $ 62,705 $ 49,338 ========= ========== Net deferred tax assets $ 13,391 $ 17,506 ========= ========== In addition to the net deferred tax assets of approximately $13.4 million at December 31, 2004, we had a current tax receivable of $0.4 million, comprising the total Income tax asset - current and deferred, net on our Consolidated Balance Sheets at December 31, 2004. At December 31, 2003, we had a current income tax payable of approximately $8.0 million. SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes," requires a valuation allowance to reduce the deferred tax assets reported if, based on the weight of the evidence, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. After consideration of all the evidence, both positive and negative, management determined that a $12.7 million and a $12.0 million valuation allowance at December 31, 2004 and 2003 respectively, were necessary to reduce the deferred tax assets to the amount that will more likely than not be realized. When assessing the adequacy of the valuation allowance, management considered both anticipated reversals of deferred tax liabilities and other potential sources of taxable income in future years. We have available net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $9.6 million at December 31, 2004, arising from operations of the taxable REIT subsidiaries prior to joining the consolidated taxable REIT group. The net operating loss carryforwards will expire between 2019 and 2023. 116 CRESCENT REAL ESTATE EQUITIES COMPANY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Consolidated income (loss) from continuing operations subject to tax was $(33.2) million, $69.4 million and $(21.2) million for the years ended December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002 respectively.

RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS DBL HOLDINGS, INC. Between June 1999 and December 2000, we contributed approximately $24.2 million to DBL. The contribution was used by DBL to make an equity contribution to DBL-ABC, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of DBL, which committed to purchase an affiliated partnership interest representing a 12.5% interest in G2. G2 was formed for the purpose of investing principally in commercial mortgage backed securities and is managed and controlled by an entity that we refer to as the G2 General Partner that is owned equally by GMSPLP and GMAC Commercial Mortgage Corporation. The G2 General Partner is entitled to an annual asset management fee. Additionally, the G2 General Partner has a 1% interest in profits and losses of G2 and, after payment of specified amounts to partners, a promoted interest based on payments to unaffiliated limited partners. As an affiliated limited partner, DBL-ABC, Inc.'s returns are not impacted by the G2 General Partner's promoted interest. As of December 31, 2004, DBL-ABC, Inc. has received approximately $22.4 million cumulative distributions. The investment balance as of December 31, 2004 is approximately $13.0 million. In February 2005, we received a cash distribution of approximately $17.9 million from DBL, bringing the total distributions to $40.3 million on an initial investment of $24.7 million. The ownership structure of GMSPLP consists of an approximately 86% limited partnership interest owned directly and indirectly by Richard E. Rainwater, Chairman of our Board of Trust Managers, and an approximately 14% general partnership interest, of which approximately 6% is owned by Darla Moore, who is married to Mr. Rainwater, and approximately 6% is owned by John C. Goff, Vice-Chairman of our Board of Trust Managers and our Chief Executive Officer. The remaining approximately 2% general partnership interest is owned by unrelated parties. 117 CRESCENT REAL ESTATE EQUITIES COMPANY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS On January 2, 2003, we purchased the remaining 2.56% economic interest, representing 100% of the voting stock, in DBL from Mr. Goff. Total consideration paid for Mr. Goff's interest was $0.4 million. Our Board of Trust Managers, including all of the independent trust managers, approved the transaction based in part on an appraisal of the assets of DBL by an independent appraisal firm. As a result of this transaction, DBL is wholly-owned by us and is consolidated beginning as of and for the year ended December 31, 2003. Also, because DBL owns a majority of the voting stock in MVDC and HADC, we consolidated these two Residential Development Corporations beginning as of and for the year ended December 31, 2003. LOANS TO EMPLOYEES AND TRUST MANAGERS OF THE COMPANY FOR EXERCISE OF STOCK OPTIONS AND UNIT OPTIONS As of December 31, 2004, we had approximately $38.0 million in loan balances outstanding reflected in the "Additional paid-in capital" line item in the Consolidated Balance Sheets, inclusive of current interest accrued of approximately $0.2 million, to certain of our employees and trust managers on a recourse basis under stock and unit incentive plans pursuant to an agreement approved by our Board of Trust Managers and its Executive Compensation Committee. The employees and the trust managers used the loan proceeds to acquire common shares of Crescent pursuant to the exercise of vested stock and unit options. The loans bear interest at 2.52% per year (based on the Applicable Federal Rates (AFR) discussed below), payable quarterly, mature on July 28, 2012, and may be repaid in full or in part at any time without premium or penalty. Mr. Goff had a loan representing $26.4 million of the $38.0 million total outstanding loans at December 31, 2004. No conditions exist at December 31, 2004 which would cause any of the loans to be in default. Under the option to obtain loans pursuant to our stock and unit incentive plans, we granted loans to our employees and trust managers through July 29, 2002, at which time we ceased offering such loans. The loans entered into had interest rates equal to the applicable federal short-term, mid-term and long-term AFR, determined and published by the IRS based upon average market yields of specified maturities. On July 29, 2002, the loans were amended to extend the remaining terms until July 28, 2012, to stipulate that every three years the interest rate on the loans would be adjusted to the AFR applicable at that time for a three-year loan, and to provide the employees and trust managers the option, at any time, to fix the interest rate for each of the loans to the AFR applicable at that time for a loan with a term equal to the remaining term of the loan. On July 29, 2003, each of the employees and trust managers elected to fix the interest rate on the loans and the interest rate on the loans, each with a remaining term of nine years, was reduced to 2.52%. As a result of the amendments to the terms and the interest rates which reflected below prevailing market interest rates, we recognized $1.9 million additional compensation expense for the year ended December 31, 2002, reflected in the "Other expenses" line item in our Consolidated Statements of Operations. OTHER We have a policy which allows employees to purchase our residential properties marketed and sold by our subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business. This policy requires the individual to purchase the property for personal use or investment and requires the property to be held for at least two years. In addition this policy requires, among other things, that the prices paid by affiliates must be equivalent to the prices paid by unaffiliated third parties for similar properties in the same development, and that the other terms and conditions of the transaction must be at least as beneficial to us as the terms and conditions with respect to the other properties in the same development. In the first quarter of 2005, two executive officers entered into binding contracts to purchase three condominium units at two of our residential development projects. On June 28, 2002, we purchased the home of an executive officer to facilitate the hiring and relocation of this executive officer. The purchase price was approximately $2.6 million, consistent with a third-party appraisal obtained by us. Shortly after the purchase of the home, certain changes in the business environment in Houston resulted in a weakened housing market. In May 2004, we completed the sale of the home for proceeds, net of selling costs, of approximately $1.8 million. We previously recorded an impairment charge of approximately $0.6 million, net of taxes, during the year ended December 31, 2003. 118 CRESCENT REAL ESTATE EQUITIES COMPANY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 20.

COPI On February 14, 2002, we entered into an agreement with COPI pursuant to which we and COPI agreed to jointly seek approval by the bankruptcy court of a pre-packaged bankruptcy plan for COPI. We agreed to fund certain of COPI's costs, claims and expenses relating to the bankruptcy and related transactions. During the year ended December 31, 2004, we loaned to COPI, or paid directly on COPI's behalf, approximately $2.6 million to fund these costs, claims and expenses. We also agreed to issue common shares with a minimum dollar value of approximately $2.2 million to the COPI stockholders. Because we had recorded a liability of $18.0 million in 2001 related to the COPI bankruptcy, the payment of these amounts and the amounts attributable to the agreement to issue the common shares had no effect on our results of operations or financial condition for the years ended December 31, 2004, 2003, and 2002. In addition, we agreed to use commercially reasonable efforts to assist COPI in arranging COPI's repayment of its $15.0 million obligation to Bank of America, together with any accrued interest. COPI obtained the loan from Bank of America primarily to participate in investments with us. As a condition to making the loan, Bank of America required Richard E. Rainwater, the Chairman of our Board of Trust Managers, and John C. Goff, the Vice-Chairman of our Board of Trust Managers and our Chief Executive Officer, to enter into a support agreement with COPI and Bank of America, pursuant to which Messrs. Rainwater and Goff agreed to make additional equity investments in COPI under certain circumstances. COPI used the proceeds of the sale of its interest in AmeriCold Logistics to repay Bank of America in full. Pursuant to the agreement, the current and former directors and officers of COPI and our current and former trust managers and officers received a release from COPI of liability for any actions taken prior to February 14, 2002, and received certain liability releases from COPI and its stockholders under the COPI bankruptcy plan. On March 10, 2003, COPI filed a plan under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Texas. On June 22, 2004, the bankruptcy court confirmed the bankruptcy plan, as amended. On November 4, 2004, COPI sold its interest in AmeriCold Logistics to AmeriCold 120 CRESCENT REAL ESTATE EQUITIES COMPANY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Realty Trust for approximately $19.1 million. In accordance with the confirmed bankruptcy plan, COPI used approximately $15.4 million of the proceeds to repay the loan from Bank of America, including accrued interest. In addition, in accordance with the bankruptcy plan COPI used approximately $4.4 million of the proceeds to satisfy a portion of its debt obligations to us. Of the $4.4 million, $0.7 million has been recorded as a reduction of the amounts paid by us in connection with the accrued liability recorded in 2001 relating to the COPI bankruptcy. Because we also wrote off COPI debt obligations to us in 2001, the remaining $3.7 million has been included in the "Interest and other income" line item in our Consolidated Statements of Operations for the year ended December 31, 2004. In addition, approximately $2.6 million of the accrued liability related to the COPI bankruptcy was reversed in December 2004 resulting in a reduction in the amounts included in the "Other expenses" line item in our Consolidated Statements of Operations. On January 19, 2005, the bankruptcy plan became effective upon COPI's providing notification to the bankruptcy court that all conditions to effectiveness had been satisfied. Following the effectiveness of the bankruptcy plan, we issued 184,075 common shares to the stockholders of COPI in satisfaction of our final obligation under the agreement with COPI. The common shares were valued at approximately $3.0 million in accordance with the terms of our agreement with COPI and the provisions of the bankruptcy plan. As stockholders of COPI, certain of our trust managers and executive officers, as a group, received an aggregate of 25,426 common shares. 22. BEHAVIORAL HEALTHCARE PROPERTIES On March 31, 2004, we sold our last remaining behavioral healthcare property. The sale generated proceeds, net of selling costs, of approximately $2.0 million and a net loss of approximately $0.3 million. This property was wholly-owned. This table presents the dispositions of behavioral healthcare properties by year including the number of properties sold, net proceeds received, loss on sales and impairments recognized. Depreciation has not been recognized since the dates the behavioral healthcare properties were classified as held for sale.

The note was repaid in February 2005. (2) The impairment charges represent the difference between the carrying values and the estimated sales prices less the costs of the sales for all properties held for sale during the respective year. 23. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS CANYON RANCH On January 18, 2005, we contributed the Canyon Ranch Tucson, our 50% interest and our preferred interest in CR Las Vegas, LLC, and our 30% interest in CR License, L.L.C., CR License II, L.L.C., CR Orlando LLC and CR Miami LLC, to two newly formed entities, CR Spa, LLC and CR Operating, LLC. In exchange, we received a 48% common equity interest in each new entity. The remaining 52% interest in these entities is held by the founders of Canyon Ranch, who contributed their interests in CR Las Vegas, LLC, CR License II, L.L.C., CR Orlando LLC and CR Miami LLC and the resort management contracts. In addition, we sold the Canyon Ranch Lenox Destination Resort Property to a subsidiary of CR Operating, LLC. The founders of Canyon Ranch sold their interest in CR License, L.L.C. to a subsidiary of CR Operating, LLC. As a result of these transactions, the new entities own the following assets: Canyon Ranch Tucson, Canyon Ranch Lenox, Canyon Ranch SpaClub at the Venetian Resort in Las Vegas, Canyon Ranch SpaClub on the Queen Mary 2 ocean liner, Canyon Ranch Living Community in Miami, Florida, Canyon Ranch SpaClub at The Gaylord Palms Resort in Kissimmee, Florida, and the Canyon Ranch trade names and trademarks. In addition, the newly formed entities completed a private placement of Mandatorily Redeemable Convertible Preferred Membership Units for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $110.0 million. Richard E. Rainwater, Chairman of our Board of Trust Managers, and certain of his family members purchased approximately $27.1 million of these units. The units are convertible into a 25% common equity interest in CR Spa, LLC and CR Operating, LLC and pay distributions at the rate of 8.5% per year in years one through seven, and 11% in years eight through ten. At the end of this period, the holders of the units are entitled to receive a premium in an amount sufficient to result in a cumulative return of 11% per year. The units are redeemable after seven years. Also on January 18, 2005, the new entities completed a $95.0 million financing with Bank of America. The loan has an interest-only term until maturity in February 2015, bears interest at 5.94% and is secured by the Canyon Ranch Tucson and Canyon Ranch Lenox Destination Resort Properties. As a result of these transactions, we received proceeds of approximately $91.9 million, which was used to pay down or defease debt related to our previous investment in the Properties and to pay down our credit facility. In connection with this transaction, we have agreed to indemnify the founders regarding the tax treatment of this transaction, not to exceed $2.5 million, and other matters. We believe there is a remote likelihood that payment will ever be made related to these indemnities. 121 OFFICE JOINT VENTURE On February 24, 2005, we contributed 1301 McKinney Street and an adjacent parking garage, subject to the Morgan Stanley Mortgage Capital, Inc. Note, to a limited partnership in which we have a 23.85% interest, a fund advised by JPM has a 60% interest and GE has a 16.15% interest. The property was valued at $106.0 million and the transaction generated net proceeds to us of approximately $33.4 million which were used to pay down our credit facility. We have no commitment to reinvest the cash proceeds back into the joint venture. None of the mortgage financing at the joint venture level is guaranteed by us. OFFICE ACQUISITION On February 7, 2005, we acquired The Exchange Building, a 295,525 square foot Class A office property located in Seattle, Washington. We acquired the office property for approximately $52.5 million, funded by a draw on our credit facility. This property is wholly-owned and will be included in our Office Segment. OFFICE DISPOSITION On February 7, 2005, we completed the sale of Albuquerque Plaza Office Property in Albuquerque, New Mexico. The sale generated proceeds, net of selling costs, of approximately $34.7 million and a gain of approximately $1.8 million. The proceeds from the sale were used primarily to pay down the Bank of America Fund XII Term Loan. This property was wholly-owned. OTHER REAL ESTATE INVESTMENTS On February 7, 2005, we completed a $34.5 million mezzanine loan in which we immediately sold a 50% participating interest for $17.25 million. The loan is secured by ownership interests in an entity that owns an office property in New York, New York. The loan bears interest at LIBOR plus 775 basis points with an interest-only term until maturity in March 2007, subject to the right of the borrower to extend the loan pursuant to three one-year extension options. 122 CRESCENT REAL ESTATE EQUITIES COMPANY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE Not applicable. ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES. We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), such as this report on Form 10-K, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. These controls and procedures are based closely on the definition of "disclosure controls and procedures" in Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Exchange Act. Rules adopted by the SEC require that we present the conclusions of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer about the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING. Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, and effected by our employees, including management and our Board of Trust Managers, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. This process includes policies and procedures that: o pertain to the maintenance of records that accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets in reasonable detail; o provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that our receipts and expenditures are made only in accordance with the authorization procedures we have established; and o provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of any of our assets in circumstances that could have a material adverse effect on our financial statements. LIMITATIONS ON THE EFFECTIVENESS OF CONTROLS. Management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, do not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or internal control over financial reporting will prevent all errors and fraud. In designing and evaluating our control system, management recognized that any control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, that may affect our operations have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management's override of the control. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that our design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, our current controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions that cannot be anticipated at the present time, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected. SCOPE OF THE EVALUATIONS. The evaluations by our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer of our disclosure controls and procedures and our internal control over financial reporting included a 123 review of procedures and our internal audit, as well as discussions with our Disclosure Committee, independent public accountants and others in our organization, as appropriate. In conducting the evaluation, our management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control -- Integrated Framework. In the course of the evaluation, we sought to identify data errors, control problems or acts of fraud and to confirm that appropriate corrective action, including process improvements, were being undertaken. The evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures and our internal control over financial reporting is done on a quarterly basis, so that the conclusions concerning the effectiveness of such controls can be reported in our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Annual Reports on Form 10-K. Our internal control over financial reporting is also assessed on an ongoing basis by personnel in our accounting department and by our independent auditors in connection with their audit and review activities. The overall goals of these various evaluation activities are to monitor our disclosure controls and procedures and our internal control over financial reporting and to make modifications as necessary. Our intent in this regard is that the disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting will be maintained and updated (including with improvements and corrections) as conditions warrant. Among other matters, we sought in our evaluation to determine whether there were any "significant deficiencies" or "material weaknesses" in our internal control over financial reporting, or whether we had identified any acts of fraud involving personnel who have a significant role in our internal control over financial reporting. This information is important both for the evaluation generally and because the Section 302 certifications require that our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer disclose that information to the Audit Committee of our Board of Trust Managers and our independent auditors and also require us to report on related matters in this section of the Annual Report on Form 10-K. In the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board's Auditing Standard No. 2, a "significant deficiency" is a "control deficiency," or a combination of control deficiencies, that adversely affects the ability to initiate, authorize, record, process or report external financial data reliably in accordance with GAAP such that there is more than a remote likelihood that a misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements that is more than inconsequential will not be prevented or detected. A "control deficiency" exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent or detect misstatements on a timely basis. A "material weakness" is defined in Auditing Standard No. 2 as a significant deficiency, or a combination of significant deficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected. We also sought to deal with other control matters in the evaluation, and in any case in which a problem was identified, we considered what revision, improvement and/or correction was necessary to be made in accordance with our on-going procedures. PERIODIC EVALUATION AND CONCLUSION OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES. Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that such controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report. CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING. We made no changes to our internal control over financial reporting during the fourth quarter of the fiscal year to which this report relates that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. MANAGEMENT'S REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING Management of Crescent Real Estate Equities Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer and effected by our employees, including management and the Board of Trust Managers, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Management conducted an assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2004 based on the 124 framework established in Internal Control- Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, that may affect our fair presentation of published financial statements have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. A material weakness is a control deficiency, or combination of control deficiencies that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected. Based on our assessment, management believes that, as of December 31, 2004, our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as a result of material weaknesses identified at our two Canyon Ranch Resort Properties. Canyon Ranch Resort Properties Management has identified material weaknesses at our two Canyon Ranch Resort Properties with respect to the internal controls in place at December 31, 2004. These Properties are managed by a third party under separate management agreements. As of December 31, 2004, we owned 100% of the two Canyon Ranch Resort Properties, which represents approximately 3% of our total assets and 9% of our total revenues. The nature of each of the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting is described below. With respect to the financial statement close process for the Canyon Ranch Resort Properties, management believes that certain ineffective controls at December 31, 2004 constitute a material weakness. The ineffective controls include (i) inadequate reviews to ensure accuracy and completeness of recorded amounts, (ii) inadequate reconciliation of account balances to supporting details and subledgers, and (iii) inadequate segregation of duties. With respect to recording purchases, expenditures, accounts payable and cash disbursements at the Canyon Ranch Resort Properties, management believes that certain ineffective controls at December 31, 2004 constitute a material weakness. The ineffective controls identified include (i) inadequate segregation of duties, (ii) inadequate review and approval for purchases, (iii) inadequate review of bank reconciliations, and (iv) inadequate controls to identify whether liabilities and expenses are recorded or accrued in the proper period. With respect to recording revenue, accounts receivable and cash receipts at the Canyon Ranch Resort Properties, management believes that certain ineffective controls at December 31, 2004 constitute a material weakness. The ineffective controls include (i) inadequate reviews to ensure accuracy and completeness of recorded amounts, (ii) inadequate review of bank reconciliations, and (iii) inadequate review of reconciliation of daily sales receipts to the supporting details. The Company's material weaknesses described above affect all of the significant financial statement accounts at the Canyon Ranch Resort Properties. Ernst & Young LLP, the independent public accountants who audited the financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, have issued an attestation report on management's assessment of our internal control over financial reporting, which appears on page 127 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. REMEDIATION STEPS TO ADDRESS MATERIAL WEAKNESS The two Canyon Ranch Resort Properties are managed by a third party under separate management agreements. For the years ended December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002, the two Canyon Ranch Resort Properties received an unqualified opinion on their financial statements. There were no adjustments recorded in the financial statements for these periods as a result of the material weaknesses and no indication of fraud during these periods. Further, the Canyon Ranch Resort Management team, which has managed the properties since 1979, had designed their control system based on their evaluation of the relative costs and benefits of particular controls, taking into account that they operate in a non-Sarbanes Oxley compliance environment. On January 18, 2005, we contributed a portion of our interests in these properties to a newly formed joint venture. As a result, we now have a 48% interest in an entity that owns these two properties and will no longer consolidate them. We originally expected to complete this transaction prior to December 31, 2004; therefore, the two Canyon Ranch Resort Properties were excluded from the original plan for compliance testing and evaluation. When it became apparent that the transaction might not close prior to year-end, management completed an evaluation of the 125 design of controls over significant accounts noting the material weaknesses. The Canyon Ranch Resort Properties management team has implemented a plan to address the ineffective controls discussed above and plan to perform the following: o Present a detailed plan to remediate the material weaknesses to the newly-formed joint venture board of directors o Hire additional accounting staff to mitigate the lack of segregation of duties 126 REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM THE BOARD OF TRUST MANAGER AND SHAREHOLDERS OF CRESCENT REAL ESTATE EQUITIES COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES We have audited management's assessment, included in the accompanying Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting, that Crescent Real Estate Equities Company and subsidiaries (the "Company") did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2004, because of the effect of material weaknesses identified for the Canyon Ranch Resort Properties, based on criteria established in Internal Control--Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (the COSO criteria). The Company's management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on management's assessment and an opinion on the effectiveness of the company's internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, evaluating management's assessment, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. A company's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. 127 A material weakness is a control deficiency, or combination of control deficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected. The following material weaknesses have been identified and included in management's assessment: With respect to the financial statement close process for the Company's two Canyon Ranch Resort Properties, certain ineffective controls at December 31, 2004 constitute a material weakness. The ineffective controls include (i) inadequate reviews to ensure accuracy and completeness of recorded amounts, (ii) inadequate reconciliation of account balances to supporting details and subledgers, and (iii) inadequate segregation of duties. With respect to recording purchases, expenditures, accounts payable and cash disbursements at the Company's two Canyon Ranch Resort Properties, certain ineffective controls at December 31, 2004 constitute a material weakness. The ineffective controls include (i) inadequate segregation of duties, (ii) inadequate review and approval for purchases, (iii) inadequate performance of bank reconciliations, and (iv) inadequate controls to identify whether liabilities and expenses are recorded or accrued in the proper period. With respect to recording revenue, accounts receivable and cash receipts at the Company's two Canyon Ranch Resort Properties, certain ineffective controls at December 31, 2004 constitute a material weakness. The ineffective controls include (i) inadequate reviews to ensure input accuracy and completeness, (ii) inadequate performance of bank reconciliations, and (iii) inadequate performance of reconciliation of daily sales receipts to the supporting details. The Company's material weaknesses described above affect all of the significant financial statement accounts at the Canyon Ranch Resort Properties. These material weaknesses were considered in determining the nature, timing, and extent of audit tests applied in our audit of the 2004 financial statements, and this report does not affect our report dated March 14, 2005 on those financial statements. In our opinion, management's assessment that Crescent Real Estate Equities Company and subsidiaries did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2004, is fairly stated, in all material respects, based on the COSO criteria.

We have audited the accompanying combined balance sheets of The Woodlands Land Development Company, L.P., The Woodlands Commercial Properties Company, L.P., and The Woodlands Operating Company, L.P., Texas limited partnerships, (collectively, the "Companies"), as of December 31, 2003 and 2002, and the related combined statements of earnings and comprehensive income, changes in partners' equity (deficit), and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Companies' management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the combined financial position of the Companies at December 31, 2003 and 2002, and the combined results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

Notes to Combined Financial Statements December 31, 2003 and 2002 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES CONTROL The Woodlands Land Development Company, L.P. ("Woodlands Development"), The Woodlands Commercial Properties Company, L.P. ("Woodlands Commercial"), and The Woodlands Operating Company, L.P. ("Woodlands Operating"), Texas limited partnerships (together "The Woodlands Partnerships"), are owned by entities controlled by The Rouse Company ("Rouse") and Morgan Stanley Real Estate Fund II, L.P. ("Morgan Stanley"). Woodlands Development and Woodlands Commercial are successors to The Woodlands Corporation. Prior to July 31, 1997, The Woodlands Corporation was a wholly owned subsidiary of Mitchell Energy & Development Corp. On July 31, 1997, The Woodlands Corporation was acquired by Crescent Real Estate Equities Limited Partnership ("Crescent") and Morgan Stanley. On December 31, 2003, Crescent sold its interest in The Woodlands Partnerships to Rouse. Woodlands Operating and its subsidiary, WECCR General Partnership ("WECCR GP"), manage assets owned by Woodlands Commercial and Woodlands Development as described in Note 8. In July 2000, Woodlands Development and Woodlands Commercial established subsidiaries, Woodlands VTO 2000 Land, L.P. ("VTO Land"), and Woodlands VTO 2000 Commercial, L.P. ("VTO Commercial"), to own and operate certain commercial properties in The Woodlands. These subsidiaries purchased certain commercial properties owned by Woodlands Development and Woodlands Commercial. In June 2001, Woodlands Development established a subsidiary, The Woodlands Hotel, L.P. ("the Hotel"), to construct and operate a hotel in The Woodlands. PRINCIPLES OF COMBINATION The combined financial statements include the accounts of The Woodlands Partnerships and are combined due to common ownership in certain cases and management. All significant transactions and accounts between The Woodlands Partnerships are eliminated in combination. The Woodlands Partnerships follow the equity method of accounting for their investments in 20% to 50% owned entities. 142 The Woodlands Land Development Company, L.P., The Woodlands Commercial Properties Company, L.P., and The Woodlands Operating Company, L.P. Notes to Combined Financial Statements (continued) 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) BUSINESS The Woodlands Partnerships' real estate activities are concentrated in The Woodlands, a planned community located north of Houston, Texas. Consequently, these operations and the associated credit risks may be affected, either positively or negatively, by changes in economic conditions in this geographical area. Activities associated with The Woodlands Partnerships include residential and commercial land sales and the construction, operation, and management of office and industrial buildings, apartments, golf courses, and two hotel facilities. REAL ESTATE Costs associated with the acquisition and development of real estate, including holding costs consisting principally of interest and ad valorem taxes, are capitalized as incurred. Capitalization of such holding costs is limited to properties for which active development continues. Capitalization ceases upon completion of a property or cessation of development activities. Where practicable, capitalized costs are specifically assigned to individual assets; otherwise, costs are allocated based on estimated values of the affected assets. Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. For the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002, there were no impairments recognized. REVENUE RECOGNITION Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104 ("SAB 104") provides interpretive guidance on the proper revenue recognition, presentation, and disclosure in financial statements. The Woodlands Partnerships have reviewed their revenue recognition policies and determined that they are in compliance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and the related interpretive guidance set forth in SAB 104. 143 The Woodlands Land Development Company, L.P., The Woodlands Commercial Properties Company, L.P., and The Woodlands Operating Company, L.P. Notes to Combined Financial Statements (continued) 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) LAND SALES Earnings from sales of real estate are recognized when a third-party buyer has made an adequate cash down payment and has attained the attributes of ownership. Notes received in connection with land sales are discounted when the stated purchase prices are significantly different from those that would have resulted from similar cash transactions. The cost of land sold is generally determined as a specific percentage of the sales revenues recognized for each land development project. The percentages are based on total estimated development costs and sales revenues for each project. These estimates are revised annually and are based on the then-current development strategy and operating assumptions utilizing internally developed projections for product type, revenue, and related development cost. SALES OF COMMERCIAL PROPERTIES Sales of commercial properties are accounted for under the accrual method when certain criteria are met. Gains or losses are recognized when a significant down payment has been made, the earnings process is complete, and the collection of any remaining receivables is reasonably assured. LEASE REVENUE Commercial properties are leased to third-party tenants generally involving multi-year terms. These leases are accounted for as operating leases. See Note 3 for further discussion. DEPRECIATION Depreciation of operating assets is recorded on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Useful lives range predominantly from 15 to 40 years for land improvements and buildings, 3 to 20 years for leasehold improvements, and 3 to 10 years for furniture, fixtures, and equipment. Property and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation. Costs incurred for computer software developed for internal use are capitalized for application development activities. 144 The Woodlands Land Development Company, L.P., The Woodlands Commercial Properties Company, L.P., and The Woodlands Operating Company, L.P. Notes to Combined Financial Statements (continued) 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) ADVERTISING Advertising costs are charged to operations when incurred. For the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002, advertising costs totaled $4,407,000 and $5,686,000, respectively. DEFERRED FINANCING COSTS Costs incurred to obtain debt financing are deferred and amortized over the estimated term of the related debt using the interest method. INCOME TAXES Woodlands Development, Woodlands Commercial, and Woodlands Operating are not income tax-paying entities, and all income and expenses are reported by the partners for tax reporting purposes. No provision for federal income taxes is included in the accompanying combined financial statements for these entities. Effective March 1, 2002, WECCR GP elected to be classified as an association taxable as a corporation for federal income tax purposes. Accordingly, federal income tax has been provided. For state purposes, WECCR GP is a partnership, and no state tax has been provided for. WECCR GP had no foreign operations. The tax returns, the qualification of The Woodlands Partnerships for tax purposes, and the amount of distributable partnership income or loss are subject to examination by federal taxing authorities. If such examinations result in changes with respect to partnership qualification or in changes to distributable partnership income or loss, the tax liability of the partners could be changed accordingly. INVENTORY Inventory is carried at the lower of cost or market and consists primarily of golf-related clothing and equipment sold at golf course pro shops and food and beverages sold at the hotel facilities in The Woodlands. Cost is determined based on a first-in, first-out method. 145 The Woodlands Land Development Company, L.P., The Woodlands Commercial Properties Company, L.P., and The Woodlands Operating Company, L.P. Notes to Combined Financial Statements (continued) 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) STATEMENTS OF CASH FLOWS Short-term investments with maturities of three months or less when purchased are considered to be cash equivalents. Debt borrowings and repayments with initial terms of three months or less are reported net. For the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002, The Woodlands Partnerships paid interest totaling $19,760,000 and $20,827,000, respectively. USE OF ESTIMATES The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates. RECLASSIFICATIONS Certain reclassifications have been made in the prior year's combined financial statements to conform with classifications used in the current year. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS In November 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Interpretation No. 45, Guarantor's Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of the Indebtedness of Others. This Interpretation requires a guarantor to recognize, at the inception of a guarantee issued or modified after December 31, 2002, a liability for the fair value of the obligation undertaken for issuing the guarantee. Adoption of this Interpretation did not have a material impact on The Woodlands Partnerships' results of operations or financial position. In January 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 46R, Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities. This Interpretation requires the consolidation of entities in which an enterprise absorbs a majority of the entity's losses, receives a majority of the entity's expected residual returns, or both, as a result of ownership, contractual, or other financial interests in the entity. 146 The Woodlands Land Development Company, L.P., The Woodlands Commercial Properties Company, L.P., and The Woodlands Operating Company, L.P. Notes to Combined Financial Statements (continued) 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) Prior to the issuance of this Interpretation, entities were generally consolidated by an enterprise when it had a controlling interest through ownership of a majority voting interest. This Interpretation applies immediately to entities created after January 31, 2003, and with respect to variable interests held prior to that date, The Woodlands Partnerships will apply the Interpretation beginning in 2005, when required for nonpublic entities. The Woodlands Partnerships do not have any variable interests with entities created after January 31, 2003, and are in the process of evaluating their investments in variable interest entities created prior to that date. Adoption of this Interpretation is not expected to have a material impact on The Woodlands Partnerships' results of operations or financial position. 2. NOTES AND CONTRACTS RECEIVABLE Notes receivable are carried at cost, net of discounts. At December 31, 2003 and 2002, Woodlands Development held notes and contracts receivable totaling $31,054,000 and $29,048,000, respectively, including amounts related to utility district receivables totaling $27,746,000 and $27,904,000, respectively. During 2003 and 2002, Woodlands Development sold $7,000,000 and $13,885,000, respectively, of its utility district receivables to a financial institution under a factoring agreement and recorded a retained interest related to these receivables of $324,000 and $1,305,000, respectively, which is included in the utility district receivables. The retained interest was calculated using a discount rate of 5% and assumes the receivables are collected in three years. Woodlands Development recorded a discount of $215,000 and $600,000 on these factorings during the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively.

DERIVATIVES Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, SFAS No. 138, Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities, an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133, and SFAS No. 149, Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, establish accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments and hedging activities. Derivative instruments are recorded on the balance sheet at fair value by "marking-to-market" all derivatives at period-end. Changes in fair value are recorded as an increase or decrease in partners' equity through either comprehensive income or net earnings, depending on the facts and circumstances with respect to the derivatives and their documentation. Special accounting for qualifying hedges allows a derivative's gains and losses to offset related results on the hedged item in the income statement and requires that a company must formally document and assess the effectiveness of transactions that receive hedge accounting. To the extent that changes in market values are initially recorded in other comprehensive income, such changes reverse out and are recorded in net earnings in the same period in which the hedged item affects earnings. During 2003, The Woodlands 155 The Woodlands Land Development Company, L.P., The Woodlands Commercial Properties Company, L.P., and The Woodlands Operating Company, L.P. Notes to Combined Financial Statements (continued) 5. DEBT (CONTINUED) Partnerships recorded a $1,534,000 gain in other comprehensive income related to hedges.

The mortgages were repaid when the two apartment properties were sold in July 2003. MORTGAGES PAYABLE The mortgages payable have an average interest rate of 5.9%. Debt maturities for 2004 through 2008 and thereafter total $646,000, $1,676,000, $636,000, $3,556,000, $6,824,000, and $101,000, respectively. Mortgages payable are all secured by certain tracts of land. 6. NOTES PAYABLE TO PARTNERS Woodlands Development has notes payable to its partners totaling $25,000,000. The notes bear interest at 15%. Interest is payable quarterly. All outstanding balances are due in 2007. These notes are subordinate to the bank credit agreement and mortgages payable described above. 7.

The letters of credit act as guarantee of payment to third parties in accordance with specified terms and conditions. The guarantees consist primarily of loan guarantees and would require payment only in the event of default by the debtors. 156 The Woodlands Land Development Company, L.P., The Woodlands Commercial Properties Company, L.P., and The Woodlands Operating Company, L.P.

Notes to Combined Financial Statements (continued) 7. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES (CONTINUED) LEGAL ACTIONS The Woodlands Partnerships are a party to claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of their business and to recurring examinations by the Internal Revenue Service and other regulatory agencies. Management believes, after consultation with outside counsel, that adequate financial statement accruals have been provided for all known litigation contingencies where losses are deemed probable. Based on the status of other cases, The Woodlands Partnerships are unable to determine a range of such possible additional losses, if any, that might be incurred. The Woodlands Partnerships believe it is not probable that the ultimate resolution of these actions will have a material adverse effect on their financial position, results of operations, and cash flows. 8. RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS Woodlands Operating provides services to Woodlands Development and Woodlands Commercial under management and advisory services agreements. These agreements are automatically renewed annually. Woodlands Development and Woodlands Commercial pay Woodlands Operating a management and advisory fee equal to cost plus 3%.

The transaction consisted of cash and a $26,000,000 note. The remaining balance was repaid in 2002. For the year ended December 31, 2002, interest totaled $80,000. Interest is eliminated in the accompanying combined financial statements. 9. PARTNERS' EQUITY Rouse's ownership interests in The Woodlands Partnerships are through TWC Land Development L.P., TWC Commercial Properties L.P., and TWC Operating L.P. Morgan Stanley's ownership interests are through MS/TWC Joint Venture and MS TWC, Inc. The partners' percentage interests are summarized below: GENERAL PARTNER INTEREST LIMITED PARTNER INTEREST ------------------------ ------------------------ Woodlands Development: TWC Land Development L.P. 42.5% -- MS/TWC Joint Venture -- 56.5% MS TWC, Inc. 1.0% -- Woodlands Commercial: TWC Commercial Properties L.P. 1.0% 41.5% MS/TWC Joint Venture -- 56.5% MS TWC, Inc. 1.0% -- Woodlands Operating: TWC Operating L.P. 42.5% -- MS/TWC Joint Venture -- 56.5% MS TWC, Inc. 1.0% -- 159 The Woodlands Land Development Company, L.P., The Woodlands Commercial Properties Company, L.P., and The Woodlands Operating Company, L.P. Notes to Combined Financial Statements (continued) 9. PARTNERS' EQUITY (CONTINUED) The partnership agreements for each of the partnerships provide, among other things, the following: (i) Woodlands Development, Woodlands Commercial, and Woodlands Operating are each governed by an Executive Committee composed of equal representation from their respective general partners. (ii) Net income and losses from operations are currently allocated based on the payout percentages discussed below. A reclassification of approximately $730,000 has been made to the 2002 income allocation for Woodlands Operating between the Morgan Stanley and Crescent partners to reflect the achievement in 2001 of the payout percentages discussed below. (iii) Distributions are made by The Woodlands Partnerships to the partners based on specified payout percentages and include cumulative preferred returns to Morgan Stanley's affiliates. The payout percentage to Morgan Stanley's affiliates is 57.5% until the affiliates receive distributions on a combined basis equal to their capital contributions and a 12% cumulative preferred return compounded quarterly. Then, the payout percentage to Morgan Stanley's affiliates is 50.5% until the affiliates receive distributions equal to their capital contributions and an 18% cumulative preferred return compounded quarterly. Thereafter, the payout percentage to Morgan Stanley's affiliates is 47.5%. During 2001, Morgan Stanley's affiliates received sufficient cumulative distributions from The Woodlands Partnerships to exceed Morgan Stanley's affiliates' capital contributions plus cumulative returns of 18%. Accordingly, Morgan Stanley's affiliates are currently receiving a payout percentage of 47.5%, and Rouse's affiliates are receiving 52.5% from The Woodlands Partnerships. (iv) The Woodlands Partnerships will continue to exist until December 31, 2040, unless terminated earlier due to specified events. 160 The Woodlands Land Development Company, L.P., The Woodlands Commercial Properties Company, L.P., and The Woodlands Operating Company, L.P. Notes to Combined Financial Statements (continued) 9. PARTNERS' EQUITY (CONTINUED) (v) No additional partners may be admitted to The Woodlands Partnerships unless specific conditions in the partnership agreements are met. Partnership interests may be transferred to affiliates of Rouse or Morgan Stanley. Rouse has the right of first refusal to buy the partnership interests of the Morgan Stanley affiliates at the same terms and conditions offered to a third-party purchaser or sell its affiliates' interests to the same third-party purchaser. (vi) Rouse and Morgan Stanley have the right to offer to purchase the other partner's affiliates' partnership interests in the event of failure to make specified capital contributions or a specified default by the other. Specified defaults include bankruptcy, breach of partnership covenants, transfer of partnership interests except as permitted by the partnership agreements, and fraud or gross negligence. 10. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS The estimated fair values of The Woodlands Partnerships' financial instruments as of December 31, 2003 and 2002, approximated their carrying amounts, with the exception of the notes payable to partners for Woodlands Development, which had an estimated fair value of $31,000,000 and $33,000,000, respectively. Fair values of notes and contracts receivable were estimated by discounting future cash flows using interest rates at which similar loans currently could be made for similar maturities to borrowers with comparable credit ratings. Fair values of fixed-rate, long-term debt were based on current interest rates offered to The Woodlands Partnerships for debt with similar remaining maturities. For floating-rate debt obligations, carrying amounts and fair values were assumed to be equal because of the nature of these obligations. The carrying amounts of The Woodlands Partnerships' other financial instruments approximate their fair values. 161 The Woodlands Land Development Company, L.P., The Woodlands Commercial Properties Company, L.P., and The Woodlands Operating Company, L.P. Notes to Combined Financial Statements (continued) 11. EMPLOYEE PLANS DEFINED CONTRIBUTION PLAN Woodlands Operating has a 401(k) defined contribution plan that is available to all full-time employees who meet specified service requirements.

For the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002, Woodlands Operating contributions totaled approximately $700,000 each year. SUPPLEMENTAL EXECUTIVE RETIREMENT PLAN Woodlands Operating has deferred compensation arrangements for a select group of management employees that provide the opportunity to defer a portion of their cash compensation. Woodlands Operating's obligations under this plan are unsecured general obligations to pay in the future the value of the deferred compensation adjusted to reflect the performance of its investments, whether positive or negative, of selected measurement options, chosen by each participant, during the deferral period. Woodlands Operating has established trust accounts on behalf of the participating employees totaling $2,233,000 and $1,822,000 that are included in other assets at December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively.

Significant components of WECCR GP's net deferred tax asset are as follows (in thousands): DECEMBER 31 2003 2002 ---------- ---------- Deferred tax asset: Deferred initiation fees $ 3,044 $ 3,441 Net operating loss 4,062 792 Other 149 206 ---------- ---------- 7,255 4,439 Deferred tax liabilities 79 68 ---------- ---------- Gross deferred tax asset 7,176 4,371 Valuation allowance (7,176) (4,371) ---------- ---------- Net deferred tax asset $ -- $ -- ========== ========== WECCR GP has net operating loss carryforwards of $3,270,000 and $792,000 at December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively, which begin to expire in the year 2022. SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes, requires a valuation allowance to reduce the deferred tax assets reported if, based on the weight of the evidence, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Accordingly, management has provided a valuation allowance of $7,176,000 and $4,371,000 at December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively, due to uncertainties regarding the realizations of certain deferred tax assets in future periods. 164 OTHER FINANCIAL INFORMATION 165 Report of Independent Auditors on Other Financial Information To the Executive Committee of The Woodlands Land Development Company, L.P., The Woodlands Commercial Properties Company, L.P., and The Woodlands Operating Company, L.P.
