Financial Statements and Schedules, Exhibits and Reports on Form 8-K ......... IV-1 PART I ITEM 1. BUSINESS GENERAL Reckson Associates Realty Corp. was incorporated in September 1994 and commenced operations effective with the completion of its initial public offering (the "IPO") on June 2, 1995. Reckson Associates Realty Corp., together with Reckson Operating Partnership, L.P. (the"Operating Partnership"), and their affiliates (collectively, the"Company") were formed for the purpose of continuing the commercial real estate business of Reckson Associates, its affiliated partnerships and other entities ("Reckson"). For more than 40 years, Reckson has been engaged in the business of owning, developing, acquiring, constructing, managing and leasing office and industrial properties in the New York tri-state area (the "Tri-State Area"). Based on industry surveys, management believes that the Company is one of the largest owners and operators of Class A suburban and central business district ("CBD") office properties and industrial properties in the Tri-State Area. The Company operates as a fully integrated, self-administered and self-managed real estate investment trust ("REIT"). As of December 31, 2002 the Company owned 178 properties (inclusive of 11 joint venture properties) in the Tri-State Area suburban and CBD markets, encompassing approximately 20.3 million rentable square feet, all of which are managed by the Company. These properties include 60 Class A suburban office properties encompassing approximately 8.5 million rentable square feet, of which 42 of these properties, or 74% as measured by square footage, are located within the Company's ten office parks. Reckson has historically emphasized the development and acquisition of properties that are part of large-scale suburban office parks. The Company believes that owning properties in planned office and industrial parks provides certain strategic advantages, including the following: (i) certain tenants prefer being located in a park with other high quality companies to enhance their corporate image, (ii) parks afford tenants certain aesthetic amenities such as a common landscaping plan, standardization of signage and common dining and recreational facilities, (iii) tenants may expand (or contract) their business within a park, enabling them to centralize business functions and (iv) a park provides tenants with access to other tenants and may facilitate business relationships between tenants. The properties also include 15 Class A CBD office properties encompassing approximately 5.1 million rentable square feet. The CBD office properties consist of five properties located in New York City, eight properties located in Stamford, CT and two properties located in White Plains, NY. Additionally, the properties include 101 industrial / R&D properties encompassing approximately 6.7 million rentable square feet, of which 71 of these properties, or 58% as measured by square footage, are located within the Company's three industrial parks. The properties also include two retail properties comprising approximately 20,000 rentable square feet. The Company also owns a 355,000 square foot office property located in Orlando, Florida. Through its ownership of properties in the key CBD and suburban office markets in the Tri-State Area, the Company believes it has a unique competitive advantage as the trend toward the regional decentralization of the workplace increases. Due to the events of September 11, 2001, as well as technological advances which further enable decentralization, companies are strategically re-evaluating the benefits and feasibility of regional decentralization and reassessing their long-term space needs. The Company believes this multi-location regional decentralization will continue to take place, increasing as companies begin to have better visibility as to the future of the economy, further validating our regional strategy of maintaining a significant market share in each of the key CBD and suburban office markets in the Tri-State Area. The Company also owns approximately 338 acres of land in 14 separate parcels of which the Company can develop approximately 3.2 million square feet of office space and approximately 470,000 square feet of industrial space. The Company is currently evaluating alternative land uses for certain of the land holdings to realize the highest economic value. These alternatives may include rezoning certain land parcels from commercial to residential for potential disposition. As of December 31, 2002, the Company had invested approximately $121.2 million in these development projects. Management has made subjective assessments as to the value and recoverability of these investments based on current and proposed development plans, market comparable land values and alternative use values. The Company I-1 has capitalized approximately $10.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2002 related to real estate taxes, interest and other carrying costs related to these development projects. Since the IPO, the Company has developed, redeveloped, renovated or repositioned 27 properties encompassing approximately 5.3 million square feet of office and industrial / R&D space. The Company holds a $17.0 million note receivable which bears interest at 11.5% per annum and is secured by a minority partnership interest in Omni Partners, L. P., owner of the Omni, a 579,000 square foot Class A office property located in Uniondale, N.Y., effectively increasing its economic interest in the property owning partnership (the "Omni Note"). The Company currently owns a 60% majority partnership interest in Omni Partners, L.P. and on March 14, 2007 may exercise an option to acquire the remaining 40% interest for a price based on 90% of the fair market value of the property. The Company also holds three other notes receivable aggregating $36.5 million which bear interest at rates ranging from 10.5% to 12% per annum and are secured in part by a minority partner's preferred unit interest in the Operating Partnership, certain interest in real property and a personal guaranty (the "Other Notes" and collectively with the Omni Note, the "Note Receivable Investments"). As of December 31, 2002, management has made subjective assessments as to the underlying security value on the Company's Note Receivable Investments. Based on these assessments the Company's management believes there is no impairment to the carrying value related to the Company's Note Receivable Investments. The Company also owns a 355,000 square foot office building in Orlando, Florida. This non-core real estate holding was acquired in May 1999 in connection with the Company's initial New York City portfolio acquisition. This property is cross collateralized under a $103 million mortgage note payable along with one of the Company's New York City buildings. The Company also owns a 60% non-controlling interest in a 172,000 square foot office building located at 520 White Plains Road in White Plains, New York (the "520JV") which it manages. The remaining 40% interest is owned by JAH Realties L.P. Jon Halpern, the CEO and a director of HQ Global Workplaces, is a partner in JAH Realties, L.P. As of December 31, 2002, the 520JV had total assets of $21.0 million, a mortgage note payable of $12.5 million and other liabilities of $197,000. The Company's allocable share of the 520JV mortgage note payable is approximately $7.5 million. This mortgage note payable bears interest at 8.85% per annum and matures on September 1, 2005. In addition, the 520JV had total revenues of $4.2 million and $4.0 million and total expenses of $3.3 million and $3.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively. The operating agreement of the 520JV requires joint decisions from all members on all significant operating and capital decisions including sale of the property, refinancing of the property's mortgage debt, development and approval of leasing strategy and leasing of rentable space. As a result of the decision-making participation relative to the operations of the property, the Company accounts for the 520JV under the equity method of accounting. The 520JV contributed approximately $648,000 and $478,000 to the Company's equity in earnings of real estate joint ventures for the year ended December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively. During July 1998, the Company formed Metropolitan Partners, LLC ("Metropolitan") for the purpose of acquiring Class A office properties in New York City. Currently the Company owns, through Metropolitan, five Class A office properties aggregating approximately 3.5 million square feet. During September 2000, the Company formed a joint venture (the "Tri-State JV") with Teachers Insurance and Annuity Association ("TIAA") and contributed nine Class A suburban office properties aggregating approximately 1.5 million square feet to the Tri-State JV for a 51% majority ownership interest. TIAA contributed approximately $136 million for a 49% interest in the Tri-State JV which was then distributed to the Company. The Company is responsible for managing the day-to-day operations and business affairs of the Tri-State JV and has substantial rights in making decisions affecting the properties such as leasing, marketing and financing. The minority member has certain rights primarily intended to protect its investment. For purposes of its financial statements the Company consolidates the Tri-State JV. On December 21, 2001, the Company formed a joint venture with the New York State Teachers' Retirement Systems ("NYSTRS") (the "919JV") whereby NYSTRS acquired a 49% indirect interest in the property located at 919 Third Avenue, New York, NY for $220.5 million which included $122.1 I-2 million of its proportionate share of secured mortgage debt and approximately $98.4 million of cash which was then distributed to the Company. The Company is responsible for managing the day-to-day operations and business affairs of the 919JV and has substantial rights in making decisions affecting the property such as developing a budget, leasing and marketing. The minority member has certain rights primarily intended to protect its investment. For purposes of its financial statements the Company consolidates the 919JV. As of December 31, 2001, the Company has invested approximately $59.8 million in REIT-qualified joint ventures with Reckson Strategic Venture Partners, LLC ("RSVP"), a real estate venture capital fund created in 1997 as a research and development vehicle for the Company to invest in alternative real estate sectors outside the Company's core office and industrial focus (see Recent Developments-Other Investing Activities). All of the Company's interests in its properties, land held for development, the Note Receivable Investments and joint ventures are held directly or indirectly by, and all of its operations are conducted through, the Operating Partnership. Reckson Associates Realty Corp. controls the Operating Partnership as the sole general partner and, as of December 31, 2002, owned approximately 89.5% of the Operating Partnership's outstanding common units of limited partnership interest ("OP Units") and Class B common units of limited partnership interest. The Company seeks to maintain cash reserves for normal repairs, replacements, improvements, working capital and other contingencies. The Company has established an unsecured credit facility (the "Credit Facility") with a maximum borrowing amount of $500 million scheduled to mature on December 30, 2005. The Credit Facility requires the Company to comply with a number of financial and other covenants on an ongoing basis. The Company maintains access to unsecured debt markets through its investment grade ratings. The Company's ratings as of December 31, 2002 from the major rating organizations are as follows: RATING ORGANIZATION RATING OUTLOOK --------------------------------------- -------- -------- Moody's ............................. Baa3 Stable Standard & Poor's ................... BBB- Stable These security ratings are not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold the Company's securities and they are subject to revision or withdrawal at any time by the rating organization. Ratings assigned by every rating organization have their own meaning within the organization's overall classification system. Each rating should be evaluated independently of any other rating. There are numerous commercial properties that compete with the Company in attracting tenants and numerous companies that compete in selecting land for development and properties for acquisition. In order to protect the Company's ability to qualify as a REIT, ownership of its common stock by any single stockholder is limited to 9%, subject to certain exceptions. The Company's principal executive offices are located at 225 Broadhollow Road, Melville, New York 11747 and its telephone number at that location is (631) 694-6900. At December 31, 2002, the Company had 303 employees. The Company makes certain filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including its annual report on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, current reports on Form 8-K, and all amendments to those reports, available free of charge through its website, www.reckson.com, as soon as reasonably practicable after they are filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company's annual report to shareholders, press releases and recent presentations are also available free of charge on the website. RECENT DEVELOPMENTS Acquisitions, Dispositions and Investing Activities On April 1, 2002, the Company paid approximately $23.8 million to acquire 52.7 acres of land located in Valhalla, NY on which the Company can develop approximately 875,000 square feet of office space. The Company currently owns and operates three buildings encompassing approximately 700,000 square I-3 feet in the same office park in which this land parcel is located. This acquisition was financed in part from the sales proceeds of an office property being held by a qualified intermediary for the purposes of an exchange of real property pursuant to Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code and from an advance under the Credit Facility. On August 7, 2002, the Company sold an industrial property on Long Island aggregating approximately 32,000 square feet for approximately $1.8 million. This property was sold to the sole tenant of the property through an option contained in the tenant's lease. On August 8, 2002, the Company sold two Class A office properties located in Westchester County, NY aggregating approximately 157,000 square feet for approximately $18.5 million. Net proceeds from these sales were used to repay borrowings under the Credit Facility and for general corporate purposes. During February 2003, the Company, through Reckson Construction Group Inc., entered into a contract with an affiliate of First Data Corp. to sell a 19.3-acre parcel of land located in Melville, New York and has been retained by the purchaser to develop a build-to-suit 195,000 square foot office building for aggregate consideration of approximately $47 million. This transaction is scheduled to close during the first quarter of 2003 and construction of the aforementioned office building is scheduled to commence shortly thereafter. Other Investing Activities During 1997, the Company formed FrontLine Capital Group, formerly Reckson Service Industries, Inc. ("FrontLine") and RSVP. RSVP is a real estate venture capital fund which invests primarily in real estate and real estate operating companies outside the Company's core office and industrial focus and whose common equity is held indirectly by FrontLine. In connection with the formation and spin-off of FrontLine, the Operating Partnership established an unsecured credit facility with FrontLine (the "FrontLine Facility") in the amount of $100 million for FrontLine to use in its investment activities, operations and other general corporate purposes. The Company advanced approximately $93.4 million under the FrontLine Facility. The Operating Partnership also approved the funding of investments of up to $100 million relating to RSVP (the "RSVP Commitment"), through RSVP-controlled joint ventures (for REIT-qualified investments) or advances made to FrontLine under an unsecured loan facility (the "RSVP Facility") having terms similar to the FrontLine Facility (advances made under the RSVP Facility and the FrontLine Facility hereafter, the "FrontLine Loans"). During March 2001, the Company increased the RSVP Commitment to $110 million and as of December 31, 2002, approximately $109.1 million had been funded through the RSVP Commitment, of which $59.8 million represents investments by the Company in RSVP-controlled (REIT-qualified) joint ventures and $49.3 million represents loans made to FrontLine under the RSVP Facility. As of December 31, 2002, interest accrued (net of reserves) under the FrontLine Facility and the RSVP Facility was approximately $19.6 million. RSVP retained the services of two managing directors to manage RSVP's day to day operations. Prior to the spin off of Frontline, the Company guaranteed certain salary provisions of their employment agreements with RSVP Holdings, LLC, RSVP's common member. The term of these employment agreements is seven years commencing March 5, 1998, provided however, that the term may be earlier terminated after five years upon certain circumstances. The salary for each managing director is $1 million in the first five years and $1.6 million in years six and seven. At June 30, 2001, the Company assessed the recoverability of the FrontLine Loans and reserved approximately $3.5 million of the interest accrued during the three-month period then ended. In addition, the Company formed a committee of its Board of Directors, comprised solely of independent directors, to consider any actions to be taken by the Company in connection with the FrontLine Loans and its investments in joint ventures with RSVP. During the third quarter of 2001, the Company noted a significant deterioration in FrontLine's operations and financial condition and, based on its assessment of value and recoverability and considering the findings and recommendations of the committee and its financial advisor, the Company recorded a $163 million valuation reserve charge, inclusive of anticipated costs, in its consolidated statements of operations relating to its investments in the FrontLine Loans and joint ventures with RSVP. The Company has discontinued the accrual of interest income with respect to the FrontLine Loans. The Company has also reserved against its share of GAAP equity in earnings from I-4 the RSVP controlled joint ventures funded through the RSVP Commitment until such income is realized through cash distributions. If the RSVP-controlled joint ventures reported losses, the Company would record its proportionate share of such losses. At December 31, 2001, the Company, pursuant to Section 166 of the Code, charged off for tax purposes $70 million of the aforementioned reserve directly related to the FrontLine Facility, including accrued interest. On February 14, 2002, the Company charged off for tax purposes an additional $38 million of the reserve directly related to the FrontLine Facility, including accrued interest, and $47 million of the reserve directly related to the RSVP Facility, including accrued interest. FrontLine is in default under the FrontLine Loans from the Operating Partnership and on June 12, 2002, filed a voluntary petition for relief under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. As a result of the foregoing, the net carrying value of the Company's investments in the FrontLine Loans and joint venture investments with RSVP, inclusive of the Company's share of previously accrued GAAP equity in earnings on those investments, is approximately $65 million which was reassessed with no change by management as of December 31, 2002. Such amount has been reflected in investments in service companies and affiliate loans and joint ventures on the Company's consolidated balance sheet. The common and preferred members of RSVP are currently in dispute over certain provisions of the RSVP operating agreement. The members are currently negotiating to restructure the RSVP operating agreement to settle the dispute. There can be no assurances that the members will successfully negotiate a settlement. Both the FrontLine Facility and the RSVP Facility terminate on June 15, 2003, are unsecured and advances thereunder are recourse obligations of FrontLine. Notwithstanding the valuation reserve, under the terms of the credit facilities, interest accrued on the FrontLine Loans at a rate equal to the greater of (a) the prime rate plus two percent and (b) 12% per annum, with the rate on amounts that were outstanding for more than one year increasing annually at a rate of four percent of the prior year's rate. In March 2001, the credit facilities were amended to provide that (i) interest is payable only at maturity and (ii) the Company may transfer all or any portion of its rights or obligations under the credit facilities to its affiliates. The Company requested these changes as a result of changes in REIT tax laws. As a result of FrontLine's default under the FrontLine Loans, interest on borrowings thereunder accrue at default rates ranging between 13% and 14.5% per annum. Scott H. Rechler, who serves as Co-Chief Executive Officer and a director of the Company, serves as CEO and Chairman of the Board of Directors of FrontLine. The following table sets forth the Company's invested capital (before valuation reserves) in RSVP controlled (REIT-qualified) joint ventures and amounts which were advanced under the RSVP Commitment to FrontLine, for its investment in RSVP controlled investments (in thousands): RSVP CONTROLLED AMOUNTS JOINT VENTURES ADVANCED TOTAL ----------------- ---------- ----------- Privatization ..................... $21,480 $ 3,520 $ 25,000 Student Housing ................... 18,086 3,935 22,021 Medical Offices ................... 20,185 -- 20,185 Parking ........................... -- 9,091 9,091 Resorts ........................... -- 8,057 8,057 Net leased retail ................. -- 3,180 3,180 Other assets and overhead ......... -- 21,598 21,598 ------- ------- -------- $59,751 $49,381 $109,132 ======= ======= ======== Included in these investments is approximately $16.5 million of cash that has been contributed to the respective RSVP controlled joint ventures or advanced under the RSVP Commitment to FrontLine and is being held, along with cash contributed by the preferred investors. I-5 Leasing Activity During the year ended December 31, 2002, the Company executed 255 leases encompassing approximately 2.8 million square feet. The following table summarizes the leasing activity by location and property type: AVERAGE EFFECTIVE NUMBER OF LEASES LEASED SQUARE FEET RENT (1) ------------------ -------------------- ------------------ CBD office properties ----------------------------------------- Connecticut ......................... 21 131,441 $ 33.33 New York City ....................... 32 264,645 $ 42.73 Westchester ......................... 16 126,233 $ 23.21 -- ------- Subtotal / Weighted average ......... 69 522,319 $ 35.65 -- ------- Suburban office properties ------------------------------------------ Long Island ......................... 55 355,304 $ 25.64 New Jersey .......................... 31 387,229 $ 24.31 Westchester ......................... 49 475,345 $ 21.58 --- --------- Subtotal / Weighted average ......... 135 1,217,878 $ 23.63 --- --------- Industrial properties ------------------------------------------ Long Island ......................... 49 1,033,336 $ 7.05 New Jersey .......................... 2 5,750 $ 10.30 --- --------- Subtotal / Weighted average ......... 51 1,039,086 $ 7.07 --- --------- Total ............................... 255 2,779,283 $ 19.70 === ========= (1) Base rent adjusted on a straight-line basis for free rent periods, tenant improvements and leasing commissions Financing Activities The Company currently has a three year $500 million unsecured revolving credit facility (the "Credit Facility") from JPMorgan Chase Bank, as administrative agent, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association as syndication agent and Citicorp North America, Inc. and Wachovia Bank, National Association as co-documentation agents. The Credit Facility matures in December 2005, contains options for a one year extension subject to a fee of 25 basis points and, upon receiving additional lender commitments, increasing the maximum revolving credit amount to $750 million. In addition, borrowings under the Credit Facility are currently priced off LIBOR plus 90 basis points and the Credit Facility carries a facility fee of 20 basis points per annum. In the event of a change in the Operating Partnership's unsecured credit rating the interest rates and facility fee are subject to change. The outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility were $267.0 million at December 31, 2002. The following table sets forth the Company's Applicable Margin, pursuant to the Credit Facility, which indicates the additional respective percentages per annum applied to LIBOR based borrowings determined based on the Operating Partnership's unsecured credit rating: UNSECURED CREDIT RATING APPLICABLE S&P / MOODY'S MARGIN ------------------------------------------------- ----------- A- /A3 ............................... .60% BBB+ / Baa1 .......................... .625% BBB / Baa2 ........................... .70% BBB- / Baa3 .......................... .90% Below BBB- / Baa3 or unrated ......... 1.20% The Credit Facility replaced the Company's $575 million unsecured credit facility (the "Prior Facility" and together with the Credit Facility, the "Credit Facility"). As a result, certain deferred loan costs incurred in connection with the Prior Facility were written off. Such amount is reflected as an extraordinary loss in the Company's consolidated statements of operations. I-6 The Company utilizes the Credit Facility primarily to finance real estate investments, fund its real estate development activities and for working capital purposes. At December 31, 2002, the Company had availability under the Credit Facility to borrow approximately an additional $203.0 million subject to compliance with certain financial covenants. On June 17, 2002, the Operating Partnership issued $50 million of five-year 6.00% (6.125% effective rate) senior unsecured notes. Net proceeds of approximately $49.4 million received from this issuance were used to repay outstanding borrowings under the Prior Facility. Stock and Other Equity Offerings During the year ended December 31, 2002, approximately 11,303 preferred units of limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership, with a liquidation preference value of approximately $11.3 million, were exchanged for 451,934 OP Units at an average price of $24.66 per OP Unit. In addition, 666,468 OP Units were exchanged for an equal number of shares of the Company's Class A common stock. The Board of Directors of the Company has authorized the purchase of up to five million shares of the Company's Class A common stock and / or its Class B common stock. It is anticipated that transactions conducted on the New York Stock Exchange will be effected in accordance with the safe harbor provisions of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and may be terminated by the Company at any time. As of December 31, 2002, under this buy-back program, the Company purchased 368,200 shares of Class B common stock at an average price of $22.90 per Class B share and 2,698,400 shares of Class A common stock at an average price of $21.60 per Class A share for an aggregate purchase price for both the Class A and Class B common stock of approximately $66.7 million. As a result of these purchases, annual common stock dividends will decrease by approximately $5.5 million. Previously, under the Company's prior stock buy-back program, the Company purchased and retired 1,410,804 shares of Class B common stock at an average price of $21.48 per Class B share and 61,704 shares of Class A common stock at an average price of $23.03 per Class A share for an aggregate purchase price for both the Class A and Class B common stock of approximately $31.7 million. The Board of Directors of the Company has formed a pricing committee to consider purchases of up to $75 million of the Company's outstanding preferred securities. During October 2002, the Company purchased and retired 357,500 shares of its Series A preferred stock at $22.29 per share for approximately $8.0 million. As a result of this purchase, annual preferred dividends will decrease by approximately $682,000. CORPORATE STRATEGIES AND GROWTH OPPORTUNITIES The Company's primary business objectives are to maximize current return to stockholders through increases in distributable cash flow per share and to increase stockholders' long-term total return through the appreciation in value of its common stock. The Company's core business strategy is based on a long-term outlook considering real estate is a cyclical business. The Company seeks to accomplish long-term stability and success by developing and maintaining an infrastructure and franchise that is modeled for success over the long-term. This approach allows the Company to recognize different points in the market cycle and adjust our strategy accordingly. Currently, the Company remains cautious about the market environment. With this cautious bias we choose to maintain our conservative strategy of focusing on retaining high occupancies, controlling operating expenses, maintaining a high level of investment discipline and preserving financial flexibility. The Company plans to achieve these objectives by continuing Reckson's corporate strategies and capitalizing on the internal and external growth opportunities as described below. Corporate Strategies. Management believes that throughout its 40-year operating history, Reckson has created value in its properties through a variety of market cycles by implementing the operating strategies described below. These operating strategies include: (i) a multidisciplinary leasing approach that involves architectural design and construction personnel as well as leasing professionals, (ii) I-7 innovative marketing programs that strategically position the Company's properties and distinguish its portfolio from the competition, increase brand equity and gain market-share. These cost-effective, high-yield programs include electronic web-casting, targeted outdoor and print media campaigns and sales promotion that enhances broker relationships and influences tenant retention, (iii) a comprehensive tenant service program and property amenities designed to maximize tenant satisfaction and retention, (iv) cost control management and systems that take advantage of economies of scale that arise from the Company's market position and efficiencies attributable to the state-of-the-art energy control systems at many of the office properties, (v) a fully integrated infrastructure of proprietary and property management accounting systems which encompasses technology advanced systems and tools that provides meaningful information, on a real time basis, throughout the entire organization and (vi) an acquisition and development strategy that is continuously adjusted in light of anticipated changes in market conditions and that seeks to capitalize on management's multidisciplinary expertise and market knowledge to modify, upgrade and reposition a property in its marketplace in order to maximize value. The Company also intends to adhere to a policy of maintaining a stabilized debt ratio over time (defined as the total debt of the Company as a percentage of the sum of the Company's total debt and the market value of its equity) of not more than 50%. As of December31, 2002, the Company's debt ratio was approximately 44.9%. This calculation is net of minority partners' proportionate share of joint venture debt and including the Company's share of unconsolidated joint venture debt. This debt ratio is intended to provide the Company with financial flexibility to select the optimal source of capital (whether debt or equity) with which to finance external growth. Growth Opportunities. The Company intends to achieve its primary business objectives by applying its corporate strategies to the internal and external growth opportunities described below. Internal Growth. To the extent New York City, the Long Island, Westchester, New Jersey and Southern Connecticut suburban office and industrial markets stabilize and begin to recover with limited new supply, management believes the Company is well positioned to benefit from rental revenue growth through: (i) contractual annual compounding of 3-4% Base Rent increases (defined as fixed gross rental amounts that excludes payments on account of real estate taxes, operating expense escalations and base electrical charges) on approximately 85% of existing leases from its Long Island properties, (ii) periodic contractual increases in Base Rent on existing leases from its Westchester properties, the New Jersey properties, the New York City properties and the Southern Connecticut properties and (iii) the potential for increases to Base Rents as leases expire and space is re-leased at the higher rents that exist in the current market environment. Through its ownership of properties in the key CBD and suburban office markets in the Tri-State Area, the Company believes it has a unique competitive advantage as the trend toward the regional decentralization of the workplace increases. Due to the events of September 11, 2001 as well as technological advances which further enable decentralization, companies are strategically re-evaluating the benefits and feasibility of regional decentralization and reassessing their long-term space needs. The Company believes this multi-location regional decentralization will continue to take place, increasing as companies begin to have better visibility as to the future of the economy, further validating our regional strategy of maintaining a significant market share in each of the key CBD and suburban office markets in the Tri-State Area. External Growth. The Company seeks to acquire multi-tenant ClassA office buildings in New York City and the surrounding Tri-State Area core suburban and CBD markets as well as industrial properties located in the Tri-State Area. Management believes that the Tri-State Area presents future opportunities to acquire or invest in properties at attractive yields. The Company believes that its (i) capital structure, in particular its Credit Facility providing for a maximum borrowing amount of up to $500 million and access to unsecured debt markets, (ii) ability to acquire a property for OP Units and thereby defer the seller's income tax on gain, (iii) operating economies of scale, (iv) relationships with financial institutions and private real estate owners, (v) fully integrated operations in its five existing divisions and (vi) its substantial position and franchise in the submarkets in which it owns properties will enhance the Company's ability to identify and capitalize on acquisition opportunities. The Company also intends to I-8 selectively develop new ClassA suburban and CBD office and industrial properties and to continue to redevelop existing properties as these opportunities arise. The Company will concentrate its development activities on industrial and ClassA suburban and CBD office properties within the Tri-State Area. The Company's expansion into the New York City office market has provided it with future opportunities to acquire interests in properties at attractive yields. The Company also believes that the addition of its New York City division provides additional leasing and operational capabilities and enhances its overall franchise value by being the only real estate operating company in the Tri-State Area with significant presence in both Manhattan and each of the surrounding sub-markets. In addition, when valuations for commercial real estate properties are high, the Company will seek to sell certain properties or interests therein to realize value and profit created. The Company will then seek opportunities to reinvest the capital realized from these dispositions back into value-added assets in the Company's core Tri-State Area markets, as well as pursue its stock repurchase program. ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS Under various Federal, state and local laws, ordinances and regulations, an owner of real estate is liable for the costs of removal or remediation of certain hazardous or toxic substances on or in such property. These laws often impose such liability without regard to whether the owner knew of, or was responsible for, the presence of such hazardous or toxic substances. The cost of any required remediation and the owner's liability therefore as to any property is generally not limited under such enactments and could exceed the value of the property and/or the aggregate assets of the owner. The presence of such substances, or the failure to properly remediate such substances, may adversely affect the owner's ability to sell or rent such property or to borrow using such property as collateral. Persons who arrange for the disposal or treatment of hazardous or toxic substances may also be liable for the costs of removal or remediation of such substances at a disposal or treatment facility, whether or not such facility is owned or operated by such person. Certain environmental laws govern the removal, encapsulation or disturbance of asbestos-containing materials ("ACMs") when such materials are in poor condition, or in the event of renovation or demolition. Such laws impose liability for release of ACMs into the air and third parties may seek recovery from owners or operators of real properties for personal injury associated with ACMs. In connection with the ownership (direct or indirect), operation, management and development of real properties, the Company may be considered an owner or operator of such properties or as having arranged for the disposal or treatment of hazardous or toxic substances and, therefore, potentially liable for removal or remediation costs, as well as certain other related costs, including governmental fines and injuries to persons and property. All of the Company's office and industrial / R&D properties have been subjected to a Phase I or similar environmental audit after April 1, 1994 (which involved general inspections without soil sampling, ground water analysis or radon testing and, for the Company's properties constructed in 1978 or earlier, survey inspections to ascertain the existence of ACMs were conducted) completed by independent environmental consultant companies (except for 35 Pinelawn Road which was originally developed by Reckson and subjected to a Phase 1 in April 1992). These environmental audits have not revealed any environmental liability that would have a material adverse effect on the Company's business. I-9 ITEM 2. PROPERTIES General As of December 31, 2002 the Company owned 178 properties (including 11 joint venture properties) in the Tri-State Area suburban and CBD markets, encompassing approximately 20.3 million rentable square feet, all of which are managed by the Company. The properties include 60 Class A suburban office properties encompassing approximately 8.5 million rentable square feet, of which 42 of these properties, or 74% as measured by square footage, are located within the Company's ten office parks. Reckson has historically emphasized the development and acquisition of properties that are part of large-scale suburban office parks. The Company believes that owning properties in planned office and industrial parks provides certain strategic advantages, including the following: (i) certain tenants prefer being located in a park with other high quality companies to enhance their corporate image, (ii) parks afford tenants certain aesthetic amenities such as a common landscaping plan, standardization of signage and common dining and recreational facilities, (iii) tenants may expand (or contract) their business within a park, enabling them to centralize business functions and (iv) a park provides tenants with access to other tenants and may facilitate business relationships between tenants. The properties also include 15 Class A CBD office properties encompassing approximately 5.1 million rentable square feet. The CBD office properties consist of five properties located in New York City, eight properties located in Stamford, CT and two properties located in White Plains, NY. Additionally, the Company owns 101 industrial properties encompassing approximately 6.7 million rentable square feet, of which 71 of these properties, or 58% as measured by square footage, are located within the Company's three industrial parks. The properties also include two retail properties comprising approximately 20,000 rentable square feet. The Company also owns a 355,000 square foot office property located in Orlando, Florida. Set forth below is a summary of certain information relating to the Company's properties, categorized by office and industrial properties, as of December 31, 2002. OFFICE PROPERTIES General As of December 31, 2002, the Company owned or had an interest in 60 Class A suburban office properties encompassing approximately 8.5 million square feet and 15 Class A CBD office properties encompassing approximately 5.1 million square feet. As of December 31, 2002, the office properties were approximately 95.7% leased (percent leased excludes properties under development) to approximately 979 tenants. The office properties are Class A office buildings and are well-located, well-maintained and professionally managed. In addition, these properties are modern with high finishes and achieve among the highest rent, occupancy and tenant retention rates within their sub-markets. Forty two of the 60 suburban office properties are located within the Company's ten office parks. The buildings in these office parks offer a full array of amenities including health clubs, racquetball courts, sun decks, restaurants, computer controlled HVAC access systems and conference centers. Management believes that the location, quality of construction and amenities as well as the Company's reputation for providing a high level of tenant service have enabled the Company to attract and retain a national tenant base. The office tenants include national companies representing all major industry groups including consumer products, financial services, pharmaceuticals, health care, telecommunication and technology and insurance and service companies, such as "Big Four" accounting firms and major law firms. The 15 Class A CBD office properties consist of five properties located in New York City, eight properties located in Stamford, CT and two properties located in White Plains, NY. The office properties are leased to both national and local tenants. Leases on the office properties are typically written for terms ranging from five to ten years and require: (i) payment of a fixed gross rental amount that excludes payments on account of real estate tax, operating expense escalations and base electrical charges ("Base Rent"), (ii) payment of a base electrical charge, (iii) payment of real estate tax escalations over a base year, (iv) payment of compounded annual increases to Base Rent and/or payment of operating expense escalations over a base year, (v) payment of overtime HVAC and electric I-10 and (vi) payment of electric escalations over a base year. In virtually all leases, the landlord is responsible for structural repairs. Renewal provisions typically provide for renewal rates at market rates or a percentage thereof, provided that such rates are not less than the most recent renewal rates. The following table sets forth certain information as of December 31, 2002 for each of the office properties.

I-13 INDUSTRIAL / R&D PROPERTIES General As of December 31, 2002, the Company owned or had an interest in 101 industrial / R&D properties that encompass approximately 6.7 million rentable square feet. As of December 31, 2002, the industrial / R&D properties were approximately 94.7% leased (percentage leased excludes properties under development) to approximately 239 tenants. Many of these properties have been constructed with high ceiling heights (i.e., above 18 feet), upscale office building facades, parking in excess of zoning requirements, drive-in and / or loading dock facilities and other features which permit them to be leased for industrial and / or office purposes. The industrial / R&D properties are leased to both national and local tenants. These tenants utilize these properties for distribution, warehousing, research and development and light manufacturing / assembly activities. Leases on the industrial / R&D properties are typically written for terms ranging from three to seven years and require: (i) payment of a Base Rent, (ii) payments of real estate tax escalations over a base year, (iii) payments of compounded annual increases to Base Rent and (iv) reimbursement of all operating expenses. Electric costs are generally borne and paid directly by the tenant. Certain leases are "triple net" (i.e., the tenant is required to pay in addition to annual Base Rent, all operating expenses and real estate taxes). In virtually all of the industrial / R&D leases, the landlord is responsible for structural repairs. Renewal provisions typically provide for renewal rents at market rates, provided that such rates are not less than the most recent rental rates. Approximately 86%, as measured by square footage, of the industrial / R&D properties, are located on Long Island. Fifty-eight percent of these properties, as measured by square footage, are located in the following three industrial parks developed by Reckson, the predecessor to the Company: (i) Vanderbilt Industrial Park, (ii) Airport International Plaza and (iii) County Line Industrial Center. In addition to the industrial / R&D properties on Long Island, the Company owns eight industrial properties encompassing approximately 912,000 square feet in the other suburban markets. The following table sets forth certain information as of December 31, 2002 for each of the industrial properties.

(2) Represents Base Rent, net of electric reimbursement, of signed leases at December 31, 2002 adjusted for scheduled contractual increases during the 12 months ending December 31, 2003. Total Base Rent for these purposes reflects the effect of any lease expirations that occur during the 12 month period ending December 31, 2003. Amounts included in rental revenue for financial reporting purposes have been determined on a straight-line basis rather than on the basis of contractual rent as set forth in the foregoing table. (3) The actual fee interest is currently held by the Town of Brookhaven Industrial Development Agency. The Company may acquire such fee interest by making a nominal payment to the Town of Brookhaven Industrial Development Agency. (4) The Company has entered into a 20 year lease agreement in which it has the right to sublease the premises. RETAIL PROPERTIES As of December 31, 2002, the Company owned two free-standing retail properties encompassing approximately 10,000 square feet each located in Great Neck and Huntington, New York. One of these properties is fully leased and one property is approximately 70% leased. DEVELOPMENTS IN PROGRESS As of December 31, 2002, the Company had invested approximately $121.2 million in developments in progress. This amount includes approximately $5.4 million relating to a development currently under construction which when completed will encompass approximately 71,000 square feet of new industrial / R&D space. In addition, the Company has invested approximately $115.8 million relating to 13 remaining parcels of land which it can develop approximately 3.6 million square feet of office and industrial / R&D space. In February 2003, the Company, through Reckson Construction Group Inc., entered into a contract to sell a 19.3-acre development parcel located in Melville, New York. In addition, Reckson Construction Group, Inc., has been retained by the purchaser to develop a 195,000 square foot build-to-suit office building on this development parcel. THE OPTION PROPERTIES In connection with the IPO, the Company was granted ten-year options to acquire ten properties (the "Option Properties") which are either owned by certain Rechler family members who are also executive officers of the Company, or in which the Rechler family members own a non-controlling minority interest at a price based upon an agreed upon formula. In years prior to 2001, one of these properties was sold by the Rechler family members to a third party and four of these properties were acquired by the Company for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $35 million, which included the issuance of approximately 475,000 OP Units valued at approximately $8.8 million. I-17 Currently, certain Rechler family members retain their equity interests in the five remaining Option Properties (the "Remaining Option Properties") which were not contributed to the Company as part of the IPO. Such options provide the Company the right to acquire fee interest in two of the Remaining Option Properties and the Rechlers' minority interests in three Remaining Option Properties. The Independent Directors of the Company's Board of Directors are currently reviewing whether the Company should exercise one or more of the options relating to the Remaining Option Properties.

(2) Debt amount is net of minority partners' proportionate share of joint venture debt plus the Company's share of unconsolidated joint venture debt. (3) Management believes that funds from operations ("FFO") is an appropriate measure of performance of an equity REIT. FFO is defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT") as net income or loss, excluding gains or losses from debt restructuring and sales of properties plus depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. FFO does not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles and is not indicative of cash available to fund cash needs. FFO should not be considered as an alternative to net income as an indicator of the Company's operating performance or as an alternative to cash flow as a measure of liquidity. FFO for the year ended December 31, 2001 excludes $163 million of valuation reserves on investments in affiliate loans and joint ventures. Since all companies and analysts do not calculate FFO in a similar fashion, the Company's calculation of FFO may not be comparable to similarly titled measures as reported by other companies. (4) On January 4, 2002, approximately $85 million of the cash proceeds received from the sale of a 49% interest in the property located at 919 Third Avenue, New York, NY, was used to pay down the Company's unsecured credit facility. II-4 ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the historical financial statements of Reckson Associates Realty Corp. (the "Company") and related notes thereto. The Company considers certain statements set forth herein to be 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, with respect to the Company's expectations for future periods. Certain forward-looking statements, including, without limitation, statements relating to the timing and success of acquisitions and the completion of development or redevelopment of properties, the financing of the Company's operations, the ability to lease vacant space and the ability to renew or relet space under expiring leases, involve risks and uncertainties. Many of the forward-looking statements can be identifed by the use of words such as "believes", "may", "expects", "anticipates", "intends" or similar expressions. Although the Company believes that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, the actual results may differ materially from those set forth in the forward-looking statements and the Company can give no assurance that its expectation will be achieved. Among those risks, trends and uncertainties are: the general economic climate, including the conditions affecting industries in which our principal tenants compete; changes in the supply of and demand for office and industrial / R&D properties in the New York Tri-State area; changes in interest rate levels; downturns in rental rate levels in our markets and our ability to lease or re-lease space in a timely manner at current or anticipated rental rate levels; the availability of financing to us or our tenants; financial condition of our tenants; changes in operating costs, including utility, security and insurance costs; repayment of debt owed to the Company by third parties (including FrontLine Capital Group); risks associated with joint ventures; liability for uninsured losses or environmental matters; and other risks associated with the development and acquisition of properties, including risks that development may not be completed on schedule, that the tenants will not take occupancy or pay rent, or that development or operating costs may be greater than anticipated. Consequently, such forward-looking statements should be regarded solely as reflections of the Company's current operating and development plans and estimates. These plans and estimates are subject to revisions from time to time as additional information becomes available, and actual results may differ from those indicated in the referenced statements. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES The consolidated financial statements of the Company include accounts of the Company and all majority-owned and controlled subsidiaries. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP") requires management to make estimates and assumptions in certain circumstances that affect amounts reported in the Company's consolidated financial statements and related notes. In preparing these financial statements, management has utilized information available including its past history, industry standards and the current economic environment, among other factors, in forming its estimates and judgments of certain amounts included in the consolidated financial statements, giving due consideration to materiality. It is possible that the ultimate outcome as anticipated by management in formulating its estimates inherent in these financial statements may not materialize. However, application of the critical accounting policies below involves the exercise of judgment and use of assumptions as to future uncertainties and, as a result, actual results could differ from these estimates. In addition, other companies may utilize different estimates, which may impact comparability of the Company's results of operations to those of companies in similar businesses. Revenue Recognition and Accounts Receivable Rental revenue is recognized on a straight line basis, which averages minimum rents over the terms of the leases. The excess of rents recognized over amounts contractually due are included in deferred rents receivable on the Company's balance sheets. The leases also typically provide for tenant reimbursements of common area maintenance and other operating expenses and real estate taxes. Ancillary and other property related income is recognized in the period earned. II-5 The Company makes estimates of the collectibility of its accounts receivables related to base rents, tenant escalations and reimbursements and other revenue or income. The Company specifically analyzes tenant receivables and analyzes historical bad debts, customer credit worthiness, current economic trends and changes in customer payment terms when evaluating the adequacy of its allowance for doubtful accounts. In addition, when tenants are in bankruptcy the Company makes estimates of the expected recovery of pre-petition administrative and damage claims. In some cases, the ultimate resolution of those claims can exceed beyond a year. These estimates have a direct impact on the Company's net income, because a higher bad debt reserve results in less net income. The Company records interest income on investments in mortgage notes and notes receivable on an accrual basis of accounting. The Company does not accrue interest on impaired loans where, in the judgment of management, collection of interest according to the contractual terms is considered doubtful. Among the factors the Company considers in making an evaluation of the collectibility of interest are: (i) the status of the loan, (ii) the value of the underlying collateral, (iii) the financial condition of the borrower and (iv) anticipated future events. Gain on sales of real estate are recorded when title is conveyed to the buyer, subject to the buyer's financial commitment being sufficient to provide economic substance to the sale and the Company having no substantial continuing involvement with the buyer. Real Estate Land, buildings and improvements, furniture, fixtures and equipment are recorded at cost. Tenant improvements, which are included in buildings and improvements, are also stated at cost. Expenditures for ordinary maintenance and repairs are expensed to operations as they are incurred. Renovations and / or replacements, which improve or extend the life of the asset are capitalized and depreciated over their estimated useful lives. Depreciation is computed utilizing the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of ten to thirty years for buildings and improvements and five to ten years for furniture, fixtures and equipment. Tenant improvements are amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the related leases. The Company is required to make subjective assessments as to the useful lives of its properties for purposes of determining the amount of depreciation to reflect on an annual basis with respect to those properties. These assessments have a direct impact on the Company's net income. Should the Company lengthen the expected useful life of a particular asset, it would be depreciated over more years, and result in less depreciation expense and higher annual net income. Assessment by the Company of certain other lease related costs must be made when the Company has a reason to believe that the tenant will not be able to execute under the term of the lease as originally expected. Long Lived Assets On a periodic basis, management assesses whether there are any indicators that the value of the real estate properties may be impaired. A property's value is impaired only if management's estimate of the aggregate future cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) to be generated by the property are less than the carrying value of the property. Such cash flows consider factors such as expected future operating income, trends and prospects, as well as the effects of demand, competition and other factors. To the extent impairment has occurred, the loss will be measured as the excess of the carrying amount of the property over the fair value of the property. The Company is required to make subjective assessments as to whether there are impairments in the value of its real estate properties and other investments. These assessments have a direct impact on the Company's net income, because taking an impairment results in an immediate negative adjustment to net income. In determining impairment, if any, the Company has adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Statement No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long Lived Assets". II-6 Stock-Based Compensation Effective January 1, 2002 the Company has elected to follow FASB Statement No. 123, "Accounting for Stock Based Compensation" ("Statement No. 123"). Statement No. 123 requires the use of option valuation models which determine the fair value of the option on the date of the grant. All future employee stock option grants will be expensed over the options' vesting periods based on the fair value at the date of the grant in accordance with Statement No. 123. The Company expects minimal financial impact from the adoption of Statement No. 123. To determine the fair value of the stock options granted, the Company uses a Black-Scholes option pricing model. Historically, the Company had applied Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 and related interpretations in accounting for its stock option plans and reported pro forma disclosures in its Form 10-K filings by estimating the fair value of options issued and the related expense in accordance with Statement No. 123. Accordingly, no compensation cost had been recognized for its stock option plans prior to the Company's adoption of Statement No. 123. In December 2002, the FASB issued Statement No. 148, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation--Transition and Disclosure" ("Statement No. 148"). Statement No. 148 amends Statement No. 123 to provide alternative methods of transition for an entity that voluntarily adopts the fair value recognition method of recording stock option expense. Statement No. 148 also amends the disclosure provisions of Statement 123 and APB Opinion No. 28. "Interim Financial Reporting" to require disclosure in the summary of significant accounting policies of the effects of an entity's accounting policy with respect to stock options on reported net income and earnings per share in annual and interim financial statements. OVERVIEW AND BACKGROUND The Reckson Group, the predecessor to the Company, was engaged in the ownership, management, operation, leasing and development of commercial real estate properties, principally office and industrial buildings, and also owned certain undeveloped land located primarily on Long Island, New York. In June 1995, the Company completed an initial public offering (the "IPO"), succeeded to the Reckson Group's real estate business and commenced operations. The Company is a self-administered and self managed real estate investment trust ("REIT") engaged in the ownership, acquisition, leasing, financing, management and development of office and industrial properties and also owns land for future development. The Company's growth strategy is focused on the commercial real estate markets in and around the New York tri-state area (the "Tri-State Area"). The Company owns all of its interests in its real properties, directly or indirectly, through Reckson Operating Partnership, L.P. (the "Operating Partnership"). In connection with the IPO, the Company was granted ten year options to acquire ten properties (the "Option Properties") which are either owned by certain Rechler family members who are also executive officers of the Company, or in which the Rechler family members own a non-controlling minority interest at a price based upon an agreed upon formula. In years prior to 2001, one Option Property was sold by the Rechler family members to a third party and four of the Option Properties were acquired by the Company for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $35 million, which included the issuance of approximately 475,000 OP Units valued at approximately $8.8 million. Currently, certain Rechler family members retain their equity interests in the five remaining Option Properties (the "Remaining Option Properties") which were not contributed to the Company as part of the IPO. Such options provide the Company the right to acquire fee interest in two of the Remaining Option Properties and the Rechlers' minority interests in three Remaining Option Properties. The Independent Directors are currently reviewing whether the Company should exercise one or more of the options relating to the Remaining Option Properties. The Company conducts its management, leasing and construction related services through taxable REIT subsidiaries as defined by the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the "Code"). These services are currently provided by Reckson Management Group, Inc., RANY Management Group, Inc., Reckson Construction Group New York, Inc. and Reckson Construction Group, Inc. (collectively, the "Service Companies") in which, as of September 30, 2002, the Operating Partnership owned a 97% II-7 non-controlling interest. An entity which is substantially owned by certain Rechler family members who are also executive officers of the Company owned a 3% controlling interest in the Service Companies. In order to minimize the potential for corporate conflicts of interests which became possible as a result of changes to the Code that permit REITs to own 100% of taxable REIT subsidiaries, the Independent Directors of the Company approved the purchase by the Operating Partnership of the remaining 3% interest in the Service Companies. On October 1, 2002, the Operating Partnership acquired such 3% interests in the Service Companies for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $122,000. Such amount was less than the total amount of capital contributed to the Service Companies by the Rechler family members. As a result of the acquisition of the remaining interests in the Service Companies, the Operating Partnership commenced consolidating the operations of the Service Companies. During 2002, Reckson Construction Group, Inc. billed approximately $144,000 of market rate services and Reckson Management Group, Inc. billed approximately $313,000 of market rate management fees to the Remaining Option Properties. In addition, for the year ended December 31, 2002, Reckson Construction Group, Inc. performed market rate services, aggregating approximately $322,000 for a property in which certain executive officers maintain an equity interest. Reckson Management Group, Inc. leases 43,713 square feet of office and storage space at a Remaining Option Property for its corporate offices located in Melville, New York at an annual base rent of approximately $1.2 million. Reckson Management Group, Inc. also leases 10,722 square feet of warehouse space used for equipment, materials and inventory storage at a Remaining Option Property located in Deer Park, New York at an annual base rent of approximately $75,000. A company affiliated with an Independent Director of the Company leases 15,566 square feet in a property owned by the Company at an annual base rent of approximately $431,500. Reckson Strategic Venture Partners, LLC ("RSVP") leases 5,144 square feet in one of the Company's joint venture properties at an annual base rent of approximately $176,000. During July 1998, the Company formed Metropolitan Partners, LLC ("Metropolitan") for the purpose of acquiring Class A office properties in New York City. Currently the Company owns, through Metropolitan, five Class A office properties aggregating approximately 3.5 million square feet. During September 2000, the Company formed a joint venture (the "Tri-State JV") with Teachers Insurance and Annuity Association ("TIAA") and contributed nine Class A suburban office properties aggregating approximately 1.5 million square feet to the Tri-State JV for a 51% majority ownership interest. TIAA contributed approximately $136 million for a 49% interest in the Tri-State JV which was then distributed to the Company. The Company is responsible for managing the day-to-day operations and business affairs of the Tri-State JV and has substantial rights in making decisions affecting the properties such as leasing, marketing and financing. The minority member has certain rights primarliy intended to protect its investment. For purposes of its financial statements the Company consolidates the Tri-State JV. On December 21, 2001, the Company formed a joint venture with the New York State Teachers' Retirement Systems ("NYSTRS") (the "919JV") whereby NYSTRS acquired a 49% indirect interest in the property located at 919 Third Avenue, New York, NY for $220.5 million which included $122.1 million of its proportionate share of secured mortgage debt and approximately $98.4 million of cash which was then distributed to the Company. The Company is responsible for managing the day-to-day operations and business affairs of the 919JV and has substantial rights in making decisions affecting the property such as developing a budget, leasing and marketing. The minority member has certain rights primarily intended to protect its investment. For purposes of its financial statements the Company consolidates the 919JV. As of December 31, 2002 the Company owned 178 properties (inclusive of 11 joint venture properties) in the Tri-State Area suburban and Central Business District ("CBD") markets, encompassing approximately 20.3 million rentable square feet, all of which are managed by the Company. These properties include 60 Class A suburban office properties encompassing approximately 8.5 million rentable square feet, of which 42 of these properties, or 74% as measured by square footage, are located within the Company's ten office parks. Reckson has historically emphasized the development and II-8 acquisition of properties that are part of large-scale suburban office parks. The Company believes that owning properties in planned office and industrial parks provides certain strategic advantages, including the following: (i) certain tenants prefer being located in a park with other high quality companies to enhance their corporate image, (ii) parks afford tenants certain aesthetic amenities such as a common landscaping plan, standardization of signage and common dining and recreational facilities, (iii) tenants may expand (or contract) their business within a park, enabling them to centralize business functions and (iv) a park provides tenants with access to other tenants and may facilitate business relationships between tenants. The properties also include 15 Class A CBD office properties encompassing approximately 5.1 million rentable square feet. The CBD office properties consist of five properties located in New York City, eight properties located in Stamford, CT and two properties located in White Plains, NY. Additionally, the properties include 101 industrial / R&D properties encompassing approximately 6.7 million rentable square feet, of which 71 of these properties, or 58% as measured by square footage, are located within the Company's three industrial parks. The properties also include two retail properties comprising approximately 20,000 rentable square feet. The Company also owns a 355,000 square foot office property located in Orlando, Florida. The Company also owns approximately 338 acres of land in 14 separate parcels of which the Company can develop approximately 3.2 million square feet of office space and approximately 470,000 square feet of industrial / R&D space. The Company is currently evaluating alternative land uses for certain of the land holdings to realize the highest economic value. These alternatives may include rezoning certain land parcels from commercial to residential for potential disposition. As of December 31, 2002, the Company had invested approximately $121.2 million in these development projects. Management has made subjective assessments as to the value and recoverability of these investments based on current and proposed development plans, market comparable land values and alternative use values. The Company has capitalized approximately $10.5 million during 2002 related to real estate taxes, interest and other carrying costs related to these development projects. Since the IPO, the Company has developed, redeveloped, renovated or repositioned 27 properties encompassing approximately 5.3 million square feet of office and industrial / R&D space. During February 2003, the Company, through Reckson Construction Group, Inc., entered into a contract with an affiliate of First Data Corp. to sell a 19.3-acre parcel of land located in Melville, N.Y. and has been retained by the purchaser to develop a build-to-suit 195,000 square foot office building for aggregate consideration of approximately $47 million. This transaction is scheduled to close during the first quarter of 2003 and construction of the aforementioned office building is scheduled to commence shortly thereafter. The Company holds a $17.0 million note receivable which bears interest at 11.5% per annum and is secured by a minority partnership interest in Omni Partners, L.P., owner of the Omni, a 579,000 square foot Class A office property located in Uniondale, N.Y. (the "Omni Note"). The Company currently owns a 60% majority partnership interest in Omni Partners, L.P. and on March 14, 2007 may exercise an option to acquire the remaining 40% interest for a price based on 90% of the fair market value of the property. The Company also holds three other notes receivable aggregating $36.5 million which bear interest at rates ranging from 10.5% to 12% per annum and are secured in part by a minority partner's preferred unit interest in the Operating Partnership, certain interest in real property and a personal guaranty (the "Other Notes" and collectively with the Omni Note, the "Note Receivable Investments"). As of December 31, 2002, management has made subjective assessments as to the underlying security value on the Company's Note Receivable Investments. Based on these assessments the Company's management believes there is no impairment to the carrying value related to the Company's Note Receivable Investments. The Company also owns a 355,000 square foot office building in Orlando, Florida. This non-core real estate holding was acquired in May 1999 in connection with the Company's initial New York City portfolio acquisition. This property is cross collateralized under a $103 million mortgage note payable along with one of the Company's New York City buildings. The Company also owns a 60% non-controlling interest in a 172,000 square foot office building located at 520 White Plains Road in White Plains, New York (the "520JV") which it manages. The remaining 40% interest is owned by JAH Realties L.P. Jon Halpern, the CEO and a director of HQ II-9 Global Workplaces, is a partner in JAH Realties, L.P. As of December 31, 2002, the 520JV had total assets of $21.0 million, a mortgage note payable of $12.5 million and other liabilities of $197,000. The Company's allocable share of the 520JV mortgage note payable is approximately $7.5 million. This mortgage note payable bears interest at 8.85% per annum and matures on September 1, 2005. In addition, the 520JV had total revenues of $4.2 million and $4.0 million and total expenses of $3.3 million and $3.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively. The operating agreement of the 520JV requires joint decisions from all members on all significant operating and capital decisions including sale of the property, refinancing of the property's mortgage debt, development and approval of leasing strategy and leasing of rentable space. As a result of the decision-making participation relative to the operations of the property, the Company accounts for the 520JV under the equity method of accounting. The 520JV contributed approximately $648,000 and $478,000 to the Company's equity in earnings of real estate joint ventures for the year ended December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively. Through its ownership of properties in the key CBD and suburban office markets in the Tri-State Area, the Company believes it has a unique competitive advantage as the trend toward the regional decentralization of the workplace increases. Due to the events of September 11, 2001, as well as technological advances which further enable decentralization, companies are strategically re-evaluating the benefits and feasibility of regional decentralization and reassessing their long-term space needs. The Company believes this multi-location regional decentralization will continue to take place, increasing as companies begin to have better visibility as to the future of the economy, further validating our regional strategy of maintaining a significant market share in each of the key CBD and suburban office markets in the Tri-State Area. The Company's core business strategy is based on a long-term outlook considering real estate is a cyclical business. The Company seeks to accomplish long-term stability and success by developing and maintaining an infrastructure and franchise that is modeled for success over the long-term. This approach allows the Company to recognize different points in the market cycle and adjust our strategy accordingly. Currently, the Company remains cautious about the market environment. With this cautious bias we choose to maintain our conservative operating strategy of focusing on retaining high occupancies, controlling operating expenses, maintaining a high level of investment discipline and preserving financial flexibility. The market capitalization of the Company at December 31, 2002 was approximately $3.1 billion. The Company's market capitalization is based on the sum of (i) the market value of the Company's Class A common stock and common units of limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership ("OP Units") (assuming conversion) of $21.05 per share / unit (based on the closing price of the Company's Class A common stock on December 31, 2002), (ii) the market value of the Company's Class B common stock of $22.40 per share (based on the closing price of the Company's Class B common stock on December 31, 2002), (iii) the liquidation preference value of the Company's Series A preferred and Series B preferred stock of $25 per share, (iv) the liquidation preference value of the Operating Partnership's preferred units of $1,000 per unit and (v) approximately $1.4 billion (including its share of joint venture debt and net of minority partners' interests share of joint venture debt) of debt outstanding at December 31, 2002. As a result, the Company's total debt to total market capitalization ratio at December 31, 2002 equaled approximately 44.9%. During 1997, the Company formed FrontLine Capital Group, formerly Reckson Service Industries, Inc. ("FrontLine") and RSVP. RSVP is a real estate venture capital fund which invests primarily in real estate and real estate operating companies outside the Company's core office and industrial focus and whose common equity is held indirectly by FrontLine. In connection with the formation and spin-off of FrontLine, the Operating Partnership established an unsecured credit facility with FrontLine (the "FrontLine Facility") in the amount of $100 million for FrontLine to use in its investment activities, operations and other general corporate purposes. The Company advanced approximately $93.4 million under the FrontLine Facility. The Operating Partnership also approved the funding of investments of up to $100 million relating to RSVP (the "RSVP Commitment"), through RSVP-controlled joint ventures (for REIT-qualified investments) or advances made to FrontLine under an unsecured loan facility (the "RSVP Facility") having terms similar to the FrontLine Facility (advances made under the RSVP Facility II-10 and the FrontLine Facility hereafter, the "FrontLine Loans"). During March 2001, the Company increased the RSVP Commitment to $110 million and as of December 31, 2002, approximately $109.1 million had been funded through the RSVP Commitment, of which $59.8 million represents investments by the Company in RSVP-controlled (REIT-qualified) joint ventures and $49.3 million represents loans made to FrontLine under the RSVP Facility. As of December 31, 2002, interest accrued (net of reserves) under the FrontLine Facility and the RSVP Facility was approximately $19.6 million. RSVP retained the services of two managing directors to manage RSVP's day to day operations. Prior to the spin off of Frontline, the Company guaranteed certain salary provisions of their employment agreements with RSVP Holdings, LLC, RSVP's common member. The term of these employment agreements is seven years commencing March 5, 1998, provided however, that the term may be earlier terminated after five years upon certain circumstances. The salary for each managing director is $1 million in the first five years and $1.6 million in years six and seven. At June 30, 2001, the Company assessed the recoverability of the FrontLine Loans and reserved approximately $3.5 million of the interest accrued during the three-month period then ended. In addition, the Company formed a committee of its Board of Directors, comprised solely of independent directors, to consider any actions to be taken by the Company in connection with the FrontLine Loans and its investments in joint ventures with RSVP. During the third quarter of 2001, the Company noted a significant deterioration in FrontLine's operations and financial condition and, based on its assessment of value and recoverability and considering the findings and recommendations of the committee and its financial advisor, the Company recorded a $163 million valuation reserve charge, inclusive of anticipated costs, in its consolidated statements of operations relating to its investments in the FrontLine Loans and joint ventures with RSVP. The Company has discontinued the accrual of interest income with respect to the FrontLine Loans. The Company has also reserved against its share of GAAP equity in earnings from the RSVP controlled joint ventures funded through the RSVP Commitment until such income is realized through cash distributions. If the RSVP-controlled joint ventures reported losses, the Company would record its proportionate share of such losses. At December 31, 2001, the Company, pursuant to Section 166 of the Code, charged off for tax purposes $70 million of the aforementioned reserve directly related to the FrontLine Facility, including accrued interest. On February 14, 2002, the Company charged off for tax purposes an additional $38 million of the reserve directly related to the FrontLine Facility, including accrued interest, and $47 million of the reserve directly related to the RSVP Facility, including accrued interest. FrontLine is in default under the FrontLine Loans from the Operating Partnership and on June 12, 2002, filed a voluntary petition for relief under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. As a result of the foregoing, the net carrying value of the Company's investments in the FrontLine Loans and joint venture investments with RSVP, inclusive of the Company's share of previously accrued GAAP equity in earnings on those investments, is approximately $65 million which was reassessed with no change by management as of December 31, 2002. Such amount has been reflected in investments in service companies and affiliate loans and joint ventures on the Company's consolidated balance sheet. The common and preferred members of RSVP are currently in dispute over certain provisions of the RSVP operating agreement. The members are currently negotiating to restructure the RSVP operating agreement to settle the dispute. There can be no assurances that the members will successfully negotiate a settlement. Both the FrontLine Facility and the RSVP Facility terminate on June 15, 2003, are unsecured and advances thereunder are recourse obligations of FrontLine. Notwithstanding the valuation reserve, under the terms of the credit facilities, interest accrued on the FrontLine Loans at a rate equal to the greater of (a) the prime rate plus two percent and (b) 12% per annum, with the rate on amounts that were outstanding for more than one year increasing annually at a rate of four percent of the prior year's rate. In March 2001, the credit facilities were amended to provide that (i) interest is payable only at maturity and (ii) the Company may transfer all or any portion of its rights or obligations under the credit facilities to its affiliates. The Company requested these changes as a result of changes in REIT tax laws. As a result of FrontLine's default under the FrontLine Loans, interest on borrowings thereunder accrue at default rates ranging between 13% and 14.5% per annum. II-11 Scott H. Rechler, who serves as Co-Chief Executive Officer and a director of the Company, serves as CEO and Chairman of the Board of Directors of FrontLine. HQ Global Workplaces, Inc. ("HQ"), one of the largest providers of flexible officing solutions in the world and which is controlled by FrontLine, currently operates nine (formerly eleven) executive office centers in the Company's properties, three of which are held through joint ventures. The leases under which these office centers operate expire between 2008 and 2011, encompass approximately 202,000 square feet and have current contractual annual base rents of approximately $6.1 million. On March 13, 2002, as a result of experiencing financial difficulties, HQ voluntarily filed a petition for relief under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. Subsequent to HQ filing for bankruptcy protection it defaulted under their leases with the Company. Further, effective March 13, 2002, the Bankruptcy Court granted HQ's petition to reject two of its leases with the Company. The two rejected leases aggregated approximately 23,900 square feet and provided for contractual base rents of approximately $548,000 for the 2002 calendar year. Commencing April 1, 2002 and pursuant to the bankruptcy filing, HQ has been paying current rental charges under its leases with the Company, other than under the two rejected leases. The Company is in negotiation to restructure four of the leases and leave the terms of the remaining five leases unchanged. All negotiations with HQ are conducted through a committee designated by the Board and chaired by an independent director. There can be no assurance as to whether any deal will be consummated with HQ or if HQ will affirm or reject any or all of its remaining leases with the Company. As a result of the foregoing, the Company has reserved approximately $550,000 (net of minority partners' interests and including the Company's share of unconsolidated joint venture interest), or 74%, of the amounts due from HQ as of December 31, 2002. Scott H. Rechler serves as non-executive Chairman of the Board of HQ and Jon Halpern is the Chief Executive Officer and a director of HQ. WorldCom/MCI and its affiliates ("WorldCom"), a telecommunications company, which leased, as of December 31, 2002, approximately 527,000 square feet in thirteen of the Company's properties located throughout the Tri-State Area voluntarily filed a petition for relief under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code on July 21, 2002. The total annualized base rental revenue from these leases amounted to approximately $12.0 million, or 2.9% of the Company's total 2002 annualized rental revenue, making it the Company's second largest tenant based on base rental revenue earned on a consolidated basis. All of WorldCom's leases were current on base rental charges through December 31, 2002 and the Company currently holds approximately $300,000 in security deposits relating to these leases. In February 2003, the Bankruptcy Court granted WorldCom's petition to reject three of its leases with the Company. The three rejected leases aggregated approximately 192,000 square feet and provided for contractual base rents of approximately $4.8 million for the 2002 calendar year. The Company is currently in negotiations to restructure the remaining WorldCom leases. There can be no assurance as to whether WorldCom will affirm or reject any or all of its remaining leases with the Company. As a result of the foregoing, the Company has written off approximately $1.1 million of deferred rent receivable. In addition, the Company reserved an additional $475,000 against the deferred rents receivable representing approximately 46% of the outstanding deferred rents receivable attributable to the remaining WorldCom leases. MetroMedia Fiber Network Services, Inc. ("MetroMedia"), which leased approximately 112,000 square feet in one property from the Company, voluntarily filed a petition for relief under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code in May 2002. MetroMedia's lease with the Company provided for contractual base rent of approximately $25 per square foot amounting to $2.8 million per calendar year and expired in May 2010. In July 2002, the Bankruptcy Court granted MetroMedia's petition to restructure and reduce space under its existing lease. As a result, the lease was amended to reduce MetroMedia's space by 80,357 square feet to 31,718 square feet. Annual base rent on the 31,718 square feet MetroMedia will continue to lease is $25 per square foot amounting to approximately $793,000 per annum. Further, pursuant to the Bankruptcy Court order MetroMedia is required to pay to the Company a surrender fee of approximately $1.8 million. As a result of the foregoing, the Company wrote-off approximately $388,000 of deferred rent receivable relating to this lease and recognized the aforementioned surrender fee. Arthur Andersen, LLP ("AA") leased approximately 38,000 square feet in one of the Company's New York City buildings. AA's lease with the Company provided for base rent of approximately $2 II-12 million on an annualized basis and expired in April 2004. AA has experienced significant financial difficulties with its business and as a result has entered into a lease termination agreement with the Company effective November 30, 2002. In October 2002, AA paid the Company for all base rental and other charges through November 30, 2002 and a lease termination fee of approximately $144,000. As a result of the foregoing, the Company has written off approximately $130,000 of deferred rent receivable attributable to AA's lease. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The Company's total revenues decreased by $8.6 million or 1.7% from 2001 to 2002 and increased by $31.3 million or 6.5% from 2000 to 2001. Property operating revenues, which include base rents and tenant escalations and reimbursements ("Property Operating Revenues") increased by $3.9 million or .8% from 2001 to 2002 and $45.7 million or 10.2% from 2000 to 2001. The 2002 increase in Property Operating Revenues is attributable to net increases in rental rates and lease termination fees in our "same store" properties of $8.2 million. In addition, Property Operating Revenues increased by $8.7 million attributable to lease up of newly developed and redeveloped assets. These increases were offset by $10.6 million of revenue attributable to six properties that were sold in 2001 and an increase in reserves or write-offs of $2.4 million related to tenant receivables and deferred rents receivable. The 2001 increase in Property Operating Revenues is primarily attributable to increases in rental rates in our "same store" properties amounting to $29.3 million. In addition, $12.4 million of the increase was generated by the lease up of newly developed and redeveloped properties added to the operating portfolio. The increase in Property Operating Revenues offset the decrease of $14.4 million in other revenues. This decrease is primarily due to a decrease of $11.6 million related to interest earned on advances made under the FrontLine Loans. The Company's base rent reflects the positive impact of the straight-line rent adjustment of $26.6 million in 2002, $41.6 million in 2001 and $38.8 million in 2000. The 2002, 2001 and 2000 straight-line rent adjustment includes $9.4 million, $26.9 million and $23.3 million, respectively, generated from the property located at 919 Third Avenue, New York, NY, which is primarily attributable to rental abatement periods for the three largest tenants. During the year ended December 31, 2002, the Company incurred approximately $6.3 million of bad debt expense related to tenant receivables and deferred rents receivable which accordingly reduced total revenues for the year then ended. Property operating expenses, real estate taxes and ground rents ("Property Expenses") increased by $7.8 million or 4.6% from 2001 to 2002 and $11.2 million or 7.2% from 2000 to 2001. The 2002 increase in Property Expenses is primarily due to a $5.3 million increase in property operating expenses and a $5.9 million increase in real estate taxes related to our "same store" properties. Included in the $5.3 million increase in property operating expenses is $2.7 million and $1.4 million of increased insurance and security costs, respectively. These increases result primarily from implications of the events that occurred on September 11, 2001 and the security cost increases relate primarily to our New York City properties. In addition, Property Expenses increased by $2.0 million attributable to the lease up of newly developed and redeveloped properties. These increases in Property Expenses were offset by $5.4 million of expenses attributable to six properties that were sold in 2001. The 2001 increase in Property Expenses is primarily due to an increase in property operating expenses of $10.2 million in our "same-store" properties which consists of a $6.2 million increase in property operating expenses and a $4.0 million increase in real estate taxes. The increase in Property Expenses is also attributable to increases in labor costs, maintenance contracts and security costs. In addition, there was an increase in Property Expenses of $2.7 million due to higher occupancy levels at our developed and redeveloped properties. Gross operating margins (defined as Property Operating Revenues less Property Expenses, taken as a percentage of Property Operating Revenues) for 2002, 2001 and 2000 were 64.9%, 66.1% and 65.2%, respectively. The slight decrease from 2001 to 2002 in gross operating margin percentages resulted primarily from portfolio wide increases in real estate taxes and property and liability insurance costs. The increase from 2000 to 2001 is primarily due to an increase in rental rates. II-13 Marketing, general and administrative expenses were $31.6 million in 2002, $30.6 million in 2001 and $27.2 million in 2000. The increase in marketing, general and administrative expenses is primarily due to the increased costs of maintaining offices and infrastructure in each of the Company's five divisional markets and costs associated with the growth of the Company. The Company's business strategy has been to expand further into the Tri-State Area suburban and CBD markets and the New York City market, to create a superior franchise value by applying its standards for high quality office and industrial / R&D space and premier tenant service to its five operating divisions. Over the past three years the Company has supported this effort by increasing its marketing programs and strengthening its resources and operating systems. The cost of these efforts is reflected in both marketing, general and administrative expenses as well as the revenue growth of the Company. To a lesser extent, in 2001, the increase in marketing, general and administrative costs was impacted by legal and professional fees incurred in connection with certain cancelled acquisition transactions and amortization of deferred compensation costs. Marketing, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of operating revenues from continuing operations were 6.2% in 2002, 5.9% in 2001 and 5.6% in 2000. Interest expense was $88.6 million in 2002, $93.1 million in 2001 and $96.3 million in 2000. The decrease of $4.5 million from 2001 to 2002 is attributable to an overall decrease in interest rates on the Company's unsecured credit facility amounting to approximately $8.7 million. This decrease was offset by (i) increased interest expense of $1.7 million on the Company's senior unsecured notes resulting from the issuance of $50 million of five-year notes in June 2002, (ii) a net increase in mortgage interest expense of approximately $520,000 which was primarily attributable to the $50 million principal increase on the debt of 919 Third Avenue in July 2001 and the satisfaction of three mortgage notes payable aggregrating approximately $24.3 million during 2001 and (iii) approximately a $2.0 million decrease in capitalized interest attributable to a decrease in the level of development projects. The decrease of $3.2 million from 2000 to 2001 is attributable to lower interest rates and a decreased average balance on the Company's unsecured credit facility. This was partially offset by an increase in the Company's mortgage notes payable which was the result of the refinancing of the property located at 919 Third Avenue, New York, NY. The weighted average balance outstanding on the Company's unsecured credit facility was $284.5 million in 2001 and $416.5 million in 2000. Included in depreciation and amortization expense is amortized financing costs of $4.5 million in 2002, $4.5 million in 2001 and $4.1 million in 2000. For the year ended December 31, 2001, the Company's consolidated statement of operations includes valuation reserve charges of $166.1 million which is comprised of the following: (i) valuation reserve charges, inclusive of anticipated costs, of $163 million related to the Company's investments in the FrontLine Loans and joint ventures with RSVP (see Overview and Background for a further discussion of this valuation reserve charge), (ii) in November 1999, the Company received 176,186 shares of the common stock of FrontLine as fees in connection with the FrontLine Loans. As a result of certain tax rule provisions included in the REIT Modernization Act, it was determined that the Company could no longer maintain any equity position in FrontLine. As part of a compensation program, the Company distributed these shares to certain non-executive employees subject to recourse loans. The loans were scheduled to be forgiven over time based on continued employment with the Company. Based on the current value of FrontLine's common stock the Company has established a valuation reserve charge relating to the outstanding balance of these loans in the amount of $2.4 million and (iii) based on the Company's value assessment of its investment in Captivate Network, Inc., an unrelated technology based service company, the Company recorded a valuation reserve charge of approximately $700,000. Extraordinary losses, net of limited partners' minority interest, resulted in a $2.4 million loss in 2002, a $2.6 million loss in 2001 and a $1.4 million loss in 2000. The extraordinary losses were all attributable to the write-offs of certain deferred loan costs incurred in connection with the Company's refinancing of its debt. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES Historically, rental revenue has been the principal source of funds to pay operating expenses, debt service and capital expenditures, excluding non-recurring capital expenditures of the Company. The Company expects to meet its short-term liquidity requirements generally through its net cash provided by operating II-14 activities along with the Credit Facility previously discussed. The Credit Facility contains several financial covenants with which the Company must be in compliance in order to borrow funds thereunder. During certain quarterly periods, the Company may incur significant leasing costs as a result of increased market demands from tenants and high levels of leasing transactions. As a result, during these periods the Company's cash flow from operating activities may not be sufficient to pay 100% of the quarterly dividends due on its common stock. To meet the short-term funding requirements relating to these leasing costs, the Company may use proceeds of property sales or borrowings under its Credit Facility. The Company expects to meet certain of its financing requirements through long-term secured and unsecured borrowings and the issuance of debt and equity securities of the Company. There can be no assurance that there will be adequate demand for the Company's equity at the time or at the price in which the Company desires to raise capital through the sale of additional equity. In addition, when valuations for commercial real estate properties are high, the Company will seek to sell certain properties or interests therein to realize value and profit created. The Company will then seek opportunities to reinvest the capital realized from these dispositions back into value-added assets in the Company's core Tri-State Area markets, as well as pursue its stock repurchase program. The Company will refinance existing mortgage indebtedness or indebtedness under the Credit Facility at maturity or retire such debt through the issuance of additional debt securities or additional equity securities. The Company anticipates that the current balance of cash and cash equivalents and cash flows from operating activities, together with cash available from borrowings and equity offerings, will be adequate to meet the capital and liquidity requirements of the Company in both the short and long-term. As a result of current economic conditions, certain tenants have either not renewed their leases upon expiration or have paid the Company to terminate their leases. In addition, a number of U.S. companies have filed for protection under federal bankruptcy laws. Certain of these companies are tenants of the Company. The Company is subject to the risk that other companies that are tenants of the Company may file for bankruptcy protection. This may have an adverse impact on the financial results and condition of the Company. In addition, vacancy rates in our markets have been trending higher and in some instances our asking rents in our markets have been trending lower and landlords are being required to grant greater concessions such as free rent and tenant improvements. Additionally, the Company carries comprehensive liability, fire, extended coverage and rental loss insurance on all of its properties. Five of the Company's properties are located in New York City. As a result of the events of September 11, 2001, insurance companies are limiting coverage for acts of terrorism in all risk policies. In November 2002, the Terrorism Risk Insurance Act of 2002 was signed into law which, among other things, requires insurance companies to offer coverage for losses resulting from defined "acts of terrorism" through 2004. The Company's current insurance coverage provides for full replacement cost of its properties, except that the coverage for acts of terrorism on its properties covers losses in an amount up to $300 million per occurrence. As a result, the Company may suffer losses from acts of terrorism that are not covered by insurance. In addition, the mortgage loans which are secured by certain of the Company's properties contain customary covenants, including covenants that require the Company to maintain property insurance in an amount equal to replacement cost of the properties. There can be no assurance that the lenders under these mortgage loans will not take the position that exclusions from the Company's coverage for losses due to terrorist acts is a breach of a covenant which, if uncured, could allow the lenders to declare an event of default and accelerate repayment of the mortgage loans. Other outstanding debt instruments contain standard cross default provisions that would be triggered in the event of an acceleration of the mortgage loans. This matter could adversely affect the Company's financial results, its ability to finance and/or refinance its properties or to buy or sell properties. The terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001 in New York City may adversely effect the value of the Company's New York City properties and its ability to generate cash flow. There may be a decrease in demand in metropolitan areas that are considered at risk for future terrorist attacks, and this decrease may reduce the Company's revenues from property revenues. In order to qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, the Company is required to make distributions to its stockholders of at least 90% of REIT taxable income. The Company expects to use its cash flow from operating activities for distributions to stockholders and for payment of recurring, non-incremental revenue-generating expenditures. The Company intends to invest amounts accumulated for distribution in short-term investments. II-15 Summary of Cash Flows Net cash provided by operating activities totaled $196.1 million in 2002, $186.0 million in 2001 and $169.2 million in 2000. Increases for each year were primarily attributable to the growth in cash flow provided by the acquisition of properties and / or the increased occupancy levels of the Company's development properties and the increase in rental rates in all of the Company's markets. The lower level of increase in 2002 is attributable to a more competitive operating environment in which the Company did not acquire additional properties as well as a decrease in market rental rates and occupancies in the Company's markets. Net cash used in investing activities totaled $85.1 million in 2002, $87.5 million in 2001 and $261.3 million in 2000. The decrease in cash flows used in investing activities over the past three years is primarily attributable to the Company's decrease in property acquisitions. Cash used in investing activities during 2002 related primarily to the Company's ongoing development of its properties, the acquisition of approximately 52.7 acres of development land located in Valhalla, NY and costs associated with creating tenant space including the payment of leasing costs. Cash used in investing activities during 2001 and 2000 related primarily to investments in real estate properties including development costs. Included in these investing activities for the 2001 and 2000 periods is the Company's investments of approximately $18.7 million and $16.3 million, respectively, in RSVP-controlled (REIT qualified) joint ventures. Cash used in investing activities for the 2001 and 2000 periods was offset by proceeds from the redemption of the Company's preferred equity investments in Keystone Property Trust as well as from sales of real estate, securities and mortgage note receivable repayments in each of the years then ended. Net cash used in financing activities totaled $202.2 million in 2002. Net cash provided by financing activities totaled $5.7 million in 2001 and $88.6 million in 2000. Cash used in financing activities during 2002 related primarily to the Company's stock buy-back program and repurchases of its Series A preferred stock aggregating approximately $75 million. In addition, during 2002 cash used in financing activities was impacted by principal payments on secured borrowings and dividends and distributions. These uses of cash were offset by the Company issuing $50 million of five-year senior unsecured notes. Cash provided by financing activities during 2001 and 2000 related primarily to proceeds from secured debt financings, minority partner contributions and advances under the Company's unsecured credit facility. Cash provided by financing activities for the 2001 and 2000 periods was offset by advances made under the FrontLine Loans of approximately $7.2 million and $13.6 million, respectively. Cash provided by financing activities during these years was also offset by principal payments on secured borrowings and the unsecured credit facility as well as loan and equity issuance costs and dividends and distributions. Investing Activities On April 1, 2002, the Company paid approximately $23.8 million to acquire 52.7 acres of land located in Valhalla, NY on which the Company can develop approximately 875,000 square feet of office space. The Company currently owns and operates three buildings encompassing approximately 700,000 square feet in the same office park in which this land parcel is located. This acquisition was financed in part from the sales proceeds of an office property being held by a qualified intermediary for the purposes of an exchange of real property pursuant to Section 1031 of the Code and from an advance under the Credit Facility. On August 7, 2002, the Company sold an industrial property on Long Island aggregating approximately 32,000 square feet for approximately $1.8 million. This property was sold to the sole tenant of the property through an option contained in the tenant's lease. On August 8, 2002, the Company sold two Class A office properties located in Westchester County, NY aggregating approximately 157,000 square feet for approximately $18.5 million. Net proceeds from these sales were used to repay borrowings under the Credit Facility and for general corporate purposes. II-16 The following table sets forth the Company's invested capital (before valuation reserves) in RSVP controlled (REIT-qualified) joint ventures and amounts which were advanced under the RSVP Commitment to FrontLine, for its investment in RSVP controlled investments (in thousands): RSVP CONTROLLED AMOUNTS JOINT VENTURES ADVANCED TOTAL ----------------- ---------- --------- Privatization ..................... $21,480 $ 3,520 $ 25,000 Student Housing ................... 18,086 3,935 22,021 Medical Offices ................... 20,185 -- 20,185 Parking ........................... -- 9,091 9,091 Resorts ........................... -- 8,057 8,057 Net leased retail ................. -- 3,180 3,180 Other assets and overhead ......... -- 21,598 21,598 ------------------------------------ ------- ------- -------- $59,751 $49,381 $109,132 ======= ======= ======== Included in these investments is approximately $16.5 million of cash that has been contributed to the respective RSVP controlled joint ventures or advanced under the RSVP Commitment to FrontLine and is being held, along with cash contributed by the preferred investors. Financing Activities During 2002, the Company paid cash dividends on its Class A common stock of approximately $1.70 per share and approximately $2.59 per share on its Class B common stock. The Board of Directors of the Company has authorized the purchase of up to five million shares of the Company's Class A common stock and / or its Class B common stock. It is anticipated that transactions conducted on the New York Stock Exchange will be effected in accordance with the safe harbor provisions of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and may be terminated by the Company at any time. As of December 31, 2002, under this buy-back program, the Company purchased 368,200 shares of Class B common stock at an average price of $22.90 per Class B share and 2,698,400 shares of Class A common stock at an average price of $21.60 per Class A share for an aggregate purchase price for both the Class A and Class B common stock of approximately $66.7 million. As a result of these purchases, annual common stock dividends will decrease by approximately $5.5 million. Previously, under the Company's prior stock buy-back program, the Company purchased and retired 1,410,804 shares of Class B common stock at an average price of $21.48 per Class B share and 61,704 shares of Class A common stock at an average price of $23.03 per Class A share for an aggregate purchase price for both the Class A and Class B common stock of approximately $31.7 million. The Board of Directors of the Company has formed a pricing committee to consider purchases of up to $75 million of the Company's outstanding preferred securities. During October 2002, the Company purchased and retired 357,500 shares of its Series A preferred stock at $22.29 per share for approximately $8.0 million. As a result of this purchase, annual preferred dividends will decrease by approximately $682,000. During the year ended December 31, 2002, approximately 11,303 preferred units of limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership, with a liquidation preference value of approximately $11.3 million, were exchanged for 451,934 OP Units at an average price of $24.66 per OP Unit. In addition, 666,468 OP Units were exchanged for an equal number of shares of the Company's Class A common stock. During the year ended December 31, 2001, approximately 11,553 preferred units of limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership, with a liquidation preference value of approximately $11.6 million, were exchanged for 456,351 OP Units at an average price of $25.32 per OP Unit. In addition, 660,370 OP Units were exchanged for an equal number of shares of the Company's Class A common stock. II-17 In May 2001, a minority partner that owned an $85 million preferred equity investment in Metropolitan converted its preferred equity investment into 3,453,881 shares of the Company's Class A common stock based on a conversion price of $24.61 per share. As a result of the minority partner's conversion of its preferred equity investment, the Company owns 100% of Metropolitan. The Company currently has a three year $500 million unsecured revolving credit facility (the "Credit Facility") from JPMorgan Chase Bank, as administrative agent, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association as syndication agent and Citicorp North America, Inc. and Wachovia Bank, National Association as co-documentation agents. The Credit Facility matures in December 2005, contains options for a one year extension subject to a fee of 25 basis points and, upon receiving additional lender commitments, increasing the maximum revolving credit amount to $750 million. In addition, borrowings under the Credit Facility are currently priced off LIBOR plus 90 basis points and the Credit Facility carries a facility fee of 20 basis points per annum. In the event of a change in the Operating Partnership's unsecured credit rating the interest rates and facility fee are subject to change. The outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility were $267.0 million at December 31, 2002. The Credit Facility replaced the Company's $575 million unsecured credit facility (the "Prior Facility" and together with the Credit Facility, the "Credit Facility"). As a result, certain deferred loan costs incurred in connection with the Prior Facility were written off. Such amount is reflected as an extraordinary loss in the Company's consolidated statements of operations. The Company utilizes the Credit Facility primarily to finance real estate investments, fund its real estate development activities and for working capital purposes. At December 31, 2002, the Company had availability under the Credit Facility to borrow approximately an additional $203.0 million subject to compliance with certain financial covenants. On June 17, 2002, the Operating Partnership issued $50 million of five-year 6.00% (6.125% effective rate) senior unsecured notes. Net proceeds of approximately $49.4 million received from this issuance were used to repay outstanding borrowings under the Prior Facility. Capitalization The Company's indebtedness at December 31, 2002 totaled approximately $1.4 billion (including its share of joint venture debt and net of minority partners' interests share of joint venture debt) and was comprised of $267.0 million outstanding under the Credit Facility, approximately $499.3 million of senior unsecured notes and approximately $605.1 million of mortgage indebtedness with a weighted average interest rate of approximately 7.3% and a weighted average maturity of approximately 9.0 years. Based on the Company's total market capitalization of approximately $3.1 billion at December 31, 2002 (calculated based on the sum of (i) the market value of the Company's Class A common stock and OP Units, assuming conversion, (ii) the market value of the Company's Class B common stock, (iii) the liquidation preference value of the Company's preferred stock, (iv) the liquidation preference value of the Operating Partnership's preferred units and (v) the $1.4 billion of debt), the Company's debt represented approximately 44.9% of its total market capitalization. During 2002, the Company repurchased 2,698,400 shares of its Class A common stock, 368,200 shares of its Class B common stock and 357,500 shares of its Series A preferred stock for an aggregate price of approximately $75 million dollars. In addition, the Operating Partnership issued $50 million of five-year, 6.00% senior unsecured notes. Net proceeds from this issuance were used to repay outstanding borrowings under the Prior Facility. On October 16, 2000, the Company's Board of Directors announced that it adopted a Shareholder Rights Plan (the "Rights Plan") designed to protect shareholders from various abusive takeover tactics, including attempts to acquire control of the Company at an inadequate price, depriving shareholders of the full value of their investment. A description of the Rights Plan is included in the Notes to Financial Statements of the Company. II-18 Contractual Obligations and Commercial Commitments The following table sets forth the Company's significant debt obligations by scheduled principal cash flow payments and maturity date and its commercial commitments by scheduled maturity at December 31, 2002 (in thousands): MATURITY DATE ------------------------------------------------------------------- 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 THEREAFTER TOTAL ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- ------------ ------------- Mortgage notes payable (1) ............. $12,300 $ 13,169 $ 14,167 $ 13,785 $ 11,305 $117,389 $ 182,115 Mortgage notes payable (2) (3) ......... -- 2,616 18,553 129,920 60,539 346,269 557,897 Senior unsecured notes ................. -- 100,000 -- -- 200,000 200,000 500,000 Unsecured credit facility .............. -- -- 267,000 -- -- -- 267,000 Land lease obligations ................. 2,707 2,811 2,814 2,795 2,735 43,276 57,138 Operating leases ....................... 1,368 1,313 1,359 1,407 1,455 683 7,585 All rights lease obligations ........... 369 379 379 379 379 4,280 6,165 ---------------------------------------- ------- -------- -------- -------- -------- -------- ---------- $16,744 $120,288 $304,272 $148,286 $276,413 $711,897 $1,577,900 ======= ======== ======== ======== ======== ======== ========== (1) Scheduled principal amortization payments. (2) Principal payments due at maturity. (3) In addition, the Company has a 60% interest in an unconsolidated joint venture property. The Company's pro rata share of the mortgage debt at December 31, 2002 is approximately $7.5 million. This mortgage note payable bears interest at 8.85% per annum and matures on September 1, 2005. Certain of the mortgage notes payable are guaranteed by certain limited partners in the Operating Partnership and/or the Company. In addition, consistent with customary practices in non-recourse lending, certain non-recourse mortgages may be recourse to the Company under certain limited circumstances including environmental issues and breaches of material representations. At December 31, 2002, the Company had approximately $1.0 million in outstanding undrawn standby letters of credit issued under the Credit Facility. In addition, approximately $45.1 million, or 6.1%, of the Company's mortgage debt is recourse to the Company. Other Matters Thirteen of the Company's office properties which were acquired by the issuance of OP Units are subject to agreements limiting the Company's ability to transfer them prior to agreed upon dates without the consent of the limited partner who transferred the respective property to the Company. In the event the Company transfers any of these properties prior to the expiration of these limitations, the Company may be required to make a payment relating to taxes incurred by the limited partner. The limitations on seven of the properties expire prior to June 30, 2003. The limitations on the remaining properties expire in 2013. Eleven of the Company's office properties are held in joint ventures which contain certain limitations on transfer. These limitations include requiring the consent of the joint venture partner to transfer a property prior to various specified dates ranging from 2003 to 2005, rights of first offer, and buy / sell provisions. The Company has historically structured long term incentive programs ("LTIP") using restricted stock and stock loans. In July 2002, as a result of certain provisions of the Sarbanes Oxley legislation, the Company has discontinued the use of stock loans in its LTIP. In connection with LTIP grants made prior to the enactment of the Sarbanes Oxley legislation the Company made stock loans to certain executive and senior officers to purchase 1,372,393 shares of its Class A common stock at market prices ranging from $18.44 per share to $27.13 per share. The stock loans were set to bear interest at the mid-term Applicable Federal Rate and were secured by the shares purchased. Such stock loans (including accrued interest) vest and are ratably forgiven each year on the anniversary of the grant date based upon vesting periods ranging from four to ten years based on continued service and in part on attaining certain annual performance measures. These stock loans had an initial aggregate weighted average vesting period of approximately nine years. Approximately $4.5 million and $3.7 million of compensation expense was II-19 recorded for the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively, related to these LTIP. Such amount has been included in marketing, general and administrative expenses on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. During 2002, approximately $3.9 million of stock loans made in prior years in connection with the aforementioned LTIP matured. These stock loans were secured by 155,418 shares of Class A common stock which were issued at prices ranging from $22.50 per share to $27.13 per share. As a result of the Company discontinuing the use of stock loans as part of its LTIP the stock loans were satisfied with restricted stock held by the Company which secured the stock loans. The aggregate market value of these shares on the maturity dates of the stock loans was approximately $3.4 million. The aggregate difference between the market value of these shares and the carrying value of the stock loans was recorded as a loss on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. The 155,418 shares of Class A common stock were subsequently retired by the Company. The outstanding stock loan balances due from executive and senior officers aggregated approximately $17.0 million and $24.3 million at December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively, and have been included as a reduction of additional paid in capital on the accompanying consolidated statements of stockholders' equity. Other outstanding loans to executive and senior officers amounting to approximately $1.0 million at December 31, 2002 and 2001, related to life insurance contracts and approximately $1.0 million and $.9 million at December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively, primarily related to tax payment advances on a stock compensation award made to a non-executive officer. In November 2002, the Company granted rights to 190,524 shares of its Class A common stock to certain executive officers. These shares vest ratably over a four year period and will be issued in ratable installments on each anniversary date of the grant as compensation to the executive officer. The Company has established a new LTIP for its executive and senior officers. The four year plan has a core component which provides for annual stock based compensation based upon continued service and in part based on attaining certain annual performance measures. The plan has a special long term component which provides for compensation to be earned at the end of a four year period if the Company attains certain four year cumulative performance measures. Amounts earned under the special long term component may be paid in cash or stock at the discretion of the Compensation Committee of the Board. Performance measures are based on total shareholder returns on a relative and absolute basis. Funds From Operations Management believes that funds from operations ("FFO") is an appropriate measure of performance of an equity REIT. FFO is defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT") as net income or loss, excluding gains or losses from debt restructuring and sales of properties plus depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. FFO does not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with GAAP and is not indicative of cash available to fund cash needs. FFO should not be considered as an alternative to net income as an indicator of the Company's operating performance or as an alternative to cash flow as a measure of liquidity. (See Selected Financial Data). FFO for the year ended December 31, 2001 excludes $163 million of valuation reserves on investments in affiliate loans and joint ventures. Since all companies and analysts do not calculate FFO in a similar fashion, the Company's calculation of FFO presented herein may not be comparable to similarly titled measures as reported by other companies. II-20 The following table presents the Company's FFO calculation for the years ended December 31 (in thousands): 2002 2001 2000 ----------- ------------ ------------ Income before minority interests, preferred dividends and distributions, equity in earnings of real estate joint ventures and service companies, gain on sales of real estate, valuation reserves, discontinued operations and extraordinary loss ..................................................... $ 98,547 $ 121,624 $ 111,872 Add: Equity in earnings of real estate joint ventures and service companies ..... 1,113 2,087 4,383 Gain on sales of real estate ............................................... 537 20,173 18,669 Discontinued operations (net of limited partners' minority interest) ....... 4,762 1,019 1,208 Limited partners' minority interest ........................................ -- 5,878 -- Less: Minority partners' interests in consolidated partnerships .................. 18,730 15,975 9,120 Limited partners' minority interest ........................................ 6,238 -- 11,574 Preferred dividends and distributions ...................................... 23,123 23,977 28,012 Valuation reserves on investments in affiliate loans and joint ventures and other investments .................................................... -- 166,101 -- Extraordinary loss, net of limited partners' minority interest ............. 2,335 2,595 1,396 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------- --------- --------- Net income (loss) allocable to common shareholders .......................... 54,533 (57,867) 86,030 Adjustments for basic Funds From Operations Add: Limited partners' minority interest ........................................ 6,948 -- 11,669 Real estate depreciation and amortization .................................. 108,906 100,967 90,552 Minority partners' interests in consolidated partnerships .................. 18,730 15,975 9,120 Valuation reserves on investments in affiliate loans and joint ventures .... -- 163,000 -- Extraordinary loss, net of limited partners' minority interest ............. 2,335 2,595 1,396 Less: Limited partners' minority interest ........................................ -- 5,727 -- Gain on sales of real estate ............................................... 5,433 20,173 18,669 Amounts distributable to minority partners in consolidated partnerships .... 24,996 19,083 12,316 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------- --------- --------- Basic Funds From Operations ................................................. 161,023 179,687 167,782 Add: Dividends and distributions on dilutive shares and units ................... 23,123 26,601 34,387 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------- --------- --------- Diluted Funds From Operations ............................................... $ 184,146 $ 206,288 $ 202,169 ============================================================================= ========= ========= ========= Weighted Average Shares/OP Units outstanding (1) ............................ 67,180 66,057 61,050 ============================================================================= ========= ========= ========= Diluted Weighted Average Shares/OP Units outstanding (1) .................... 78,133 79,027 78,119 ============================================================================= ========= ========= ========= (1) Assumes conversion of limited partnership units of the Operating Partnership. II-21 INFLATION The office leases generally provide for fixed base rent increases or indexed escalations. In addition, the office leases provide for separate escalations of real estate taxes, operating expenses and electric costs over a base amount. The industrial leases generally provide for fixed base rent increases, direct pass through of certain operating expenses and separate real estate tax escalations over a base amount. The Company believes that inflationary increases in expenses will be offset by contractual rent increases and expense escalations described above. As a result of the impact of the events of September 11, 2001, the Company has realized increased insurance costs, particularly relating to property and terrorism insurance, and security costs. The Company has included these costs as part of its escalatable expenses. The Company has billed these escalatable expense items to its tenants consistent with the terms of the underlying leases and believes they are collectible. To the extent the Company's properties contain vacant space, the Company will bear such inflationary increases in expenses. The Credit Facility bears interest at a variable rate, which will be influenced by changes in short-term interest rates, and is sensitive to inflation. ITEM 7(A). QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK The primary market risk facing the Company is interest rate risk on its long term debt, mortgage notes and notes receivable. The Company will, when advantageous, hedge its interest rate risk using financial instruments. The Company is not subject to foreign currency risk. The Company manages its exposure to interest rate risk on its variable rate indebtedness by borrowing on a short-term basis under its Credit Facility until such time as it is able to retire the short-term variable rate debt with either a long-term fixed rate debt offering, long term mortgage debt, equity offerings or through sales or partial sales of assets. The Company will recognize all derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value. Derivatives that are not hedges will be adjusted to fair value through income. If a derivative is a hedge, depending on the nature of the hedge, changes in the fair value of the derivative will either be offset against the change in fair value of the hedged asset, liability or firm commitment through earnings, or recognized in other comprehensive income until the hedged item is recognized in earnings. The ineffective portion of a derivative's change in fair value will be immediately recognized in earnings. As of December 31, 2002, the Company had no derivates. The fair market value ("FMV") of the Company's long term debt, mortgage notes and notes receivable is estimated based on discounting future cash flows at interest rates that management believes reflects the risks associated with long term debt, mortgage notes and notes receivable of similar risk and duration. The following table sets forth the Company's long term debt obligations by scheduled principal cash flow payments and maturity date, weighted average interest rates and estimated FMV at December 31, 2002 (dollars in thousands): FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 ------------- -------------- ------------- -------------- -------------- Long term debt: Fixed rate ............. $ 12,300 $ 115,785 $ 32,720 $ 143,705 $ 271,844 Weighted average interest rate ......... 7.51% 7.47% 6.92% 7.38% 7.51% Variable rate .......... $ -- $ -- $ 267,000 $ -- $ -- Weighted average interest rate ......... --% --% 4.25% --% --% THEREAFTER TOTAL (1) F M V -------------- ---------------- -------------- Long term debt: Fixed rate ............. $ 663,658 $ 1,240,012 $ 1,260,299 Weighted average interest rate ......... 7.32% 7.37% Variable rate .......... $ -- $ 267,000 $ 267,000 Weighted average interest rate ......... --% 4.25% (1) Includes aggregate unamortized issuance discounts of approximately $695 on the senior unsecured notes issued during March 1999 and June 2002, which are due at maturity. II-22 In addition, the Company has assessed the market risk for its variable rate debt, which is based upon LIBOR, and believes that a one percent increase in the LIBOR rate would have an approximate $2.7 million annual increase in interest expense based on $267.0 million of variable rate debt outstanding at December 31, 2002. The following table sets forth the Company's mortgage notes and notes receivable by scheduled maturity date, weighted average interest rates and estimated FMV at December 31, 2002 (dollars in thousands): FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, ----------------------------------------------------- 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 THEREAFTER TOTAL (2) F M V --------- ------------- --------- --------- --------- ------------ ------------- ----------- Mortgage notes and notes receivable: Fixed rate ......................... $ -- $ 36,500 $ -- $ -- $ -- $ 16,990 $ 53,490 $ 54,642 Weighted average interest rate ..... --% 10.23% --% --% --% 11.95% 10.77% (2) Excludes interest receivables aggregating approximately $1.1 million.

Date: March 13, 2003 /s/ Michael Maturo ----------------------------------- Michael Maturo Executive Vice President, Treasurer and Chief Financial Officer IV-7 REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS Board of Directors and Stockholders Reckson Associates Realty Corp. We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Reckson Associates Realty Corp. as of December 31, 2002 and 2001, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2002. We have also audited the financial statement schedule listed in the index at item 15(a). These financial statements and financial statement schedule are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial statement schedule 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 consolidated financial position of Reckson Associates Realty Corp. at December 31, 2002 and 2001, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2002, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Also, in our opinion, the financial statement schedule referred to above, when considered in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 2002 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS Reckson Associates Realty Corp. (the "Company") is a self-administered and self managed real estate investment trust ("REIT") engaged in the ownership, management, operation, leasing and development of commercial real estate properties, principally office and industrial buildings and also owns land for future development (collectively, the "Properties") located in the New York tri-state area (the "Tri-State Area"). ORGANIZATION AND FORMATION OF THE COMPANY The Company was incorporated in Maryland in September 1994. In June 1995, the Company completed an Initial Public Offering (the "IPO") and commenced operations. The Company became the sole general partner of Reckson Operating Partnership, L.P. (the "Operating Partnership") by contributing substantially all of the net proceeds of the IPO, in exchange for an approximate 73% interest in the Operating Partnership. All Properties acquired by the Company are held by or through the Operating Partnership. In conjunction with the IPO, the Operating Partnership executed various option and purchase agreements whereby it issued common units of limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership ("OP Units") to certain continuing investors and assumed certain indebtedness in exchange for (i) interests in certain property partnerships, (ii) fee simple and leasehold interests in properties and development land, (iii) certain other business assets and (iv) 100% of the non-voting preferred stock of the management and construction companies. The Company's ownership percentage in the Operating Partnership was approximately 89.5% and 89.2% at December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the consolidated financial position of the Company and the Operating Partnership at December 31, 2002 and 2001 and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2002. The Operating Partnership's investments in majority owned and controlled real estate joint ventures are reflected in the accompanying financial statements on a consolidated basis with a reduction for the minority partners' interest. The Operating Partnership also invests in real estate joint ventures where it may own less than a controlling interest. Such investments are also reflected in the accompanying financial statements on the equity method of accounting. The operating results of Reckson Management Group, Inc., RANY Management Group, Inc., Reckson Construction Group New York, Inc. and Reckson Construction Group, Inc. (collectively, the "Service Companies"), in which the Operating Partnership owned a 97% non-controlling interest are reflected in the accompanying financial statements on the equity method of accounting through September 30, 2002. On October 1, 2002, the Operating Partnership acquired the remaining 3% interests in the Service Companies for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $122,000. As a result, the Operating Partnership commenced consolidating the operations of the Service Companies. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidated financial statements. Minority partners' interests in consolidated partnerships represent a 49% non-affiliated interest in RT Tri-State LLC, owner of a nine property suburban office portfolio, a 40% non-affiliated interest in Omni Partners, L.P., owner of a 579,000 square foot suburban office property and beginning December 21, 2001, a 49% non-affiliated interest in Metropolitan 919 Third Avenue, LLC, owner of the property located at 919 Third Avenue, New York, NY. Limited partners' minority interest in the Operating Partnership was approximately 10.5% and 10.8% at December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively. IV-13 RECKSON ASSOCIATES REALTY CORP. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (CONTINUED) 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - (CONTINUED) USE OF ESTIMATES The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP") requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. REAL ESTATE Land, buildings and improvements, furniture, fixtures and equipment are recorded at cost. Tenant improvements, which are included in buildings and improvements, are also stated at cost. Expenditures for ordinary maintenance and repairs are expensed to operations as they are incurred. Renovations and / or replacements, which improve or extend the life of the asset are capitalized and depreciated over their estimated useful lives. Depreciation is computed utilizing the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of ten to thirty years for buildings and improvements and five to ten years for furniture, fixtures and equipment. Tenant improvements, which are included in buildings and improvements, are amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the related leases. LONG LIVED ASSETS On a periodic basis, management assesses whether there are any indicators that the value of the real estate properties may be impaired. A property's value is impaired only if management's estimate of the aggregate future cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) to be generated by the property are less than the carrying value of the property. Such cash flows consider factors such as expected future operating income, trends and prospects, as well as the effects of demand, competition and other factors. To the extent impairment has occurred, the loss will be measured as the excess of the carrying amount of the property over the fair value of the property. The Company is required to make subjective assessments as to whether there are impairments in the value of its real estate properties and other investments. These assessments have a direct impact on the Company's net income, because taking an impairment results in an immediate negative adjustment to net income. In determining impairment, if any, the Company has adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Statement No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long Lived Assets" (See Recent Accounting Pronouncements). CASH EQUIVALENTS The Company considers highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased, to be cash equivalents. Tenant's lease security deposits aggregating approximately $5.6 million and $5.1 million at December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively have been included in cash and cash equivalents on the accompanying balance sheets. DEFERRED COSTS Tenant leasing commissions and related costs incurred in connection with leasing tenant space are capitalized and amortized over the life of the related lease. In addition, loan costs incurred in obtaining financing are capitalized and amortized over the term of the related loan. Costs incurred in connection with equity offerings are charged to stockholders equity when incurred. IV-14 RECKSON ASSOCIATES REALTY CORP. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (CONTINUED) 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - (CONTINUED) INCOME TAXES Commencing with its taxable year ended December 31, 1995, the Company elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the "Code"). To qualify as a REIT, the Company must meet a number of organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement that it currently distribute at least 90% of its adjusted taxable income to its stockholders. It is management's current intention to adhere to these requirements and maintain the Company's REIT status. As a REIT, the Company generally will not be subject to corporate level federal income tax on taxable income it distributes currently to its stockholders. If the Company fails to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, it will be subject to federal income taxes at regular corporate rates (including any applicable al ternative minimum tax) and may not be able to qualify as a REIT for the subsequent four taxable years. Even if the Company qualifies for taxation as a REIT, the Company may be subject to certain state and local taxes on its income and property, and to federal income and excise taxes on its undistributed taxable income. In addition, taxable income from non-REIT activities managed through the Service Companies as taxable REIT subsidiaries are subject to federal, state and local income taxes. (See Note 14 for the Company's reconciliation of GAAP net income to taxable income, its reconciliation of cash distributions to the dividends paid deduction and its characterization of taxable distributions). REVENUE RECOGNITION Minimum rental income is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of a lease. The excess of rents recognized over amounts contractually due are included in deferred rents receivable on the accompanying balance sheets. Contractually due but unpaid rents are included in tenant receivables on the accompanying balance sheets. Certain lease agreements provide for reimbursement of real estate taxes, insurance, common area maintenance costs and indexed rental increases, which are recorded on an accrual basis. The Company records interest income on investments in mortgage notes and notes receivable on an accrual basis of accounting. The Company does not accrue interest on impaired loans where, in the judgment of management, collection of interest according to the contractual terms is considered doubtful. Among the factors the Company considers in making an evaluation of the collectibility of interest are: (i) the status of the loan, (ii) the value of the underlying collateral, (iii) the financial condition of the borrower and (iv) anticipated future events. Gain on sales of real estate are recorded when title is conveyed to the buyer, subject to the buyer's financial commitment being sufficient to provide economic substance to the sale and the Company having no substantial continuing involvement with the buyer. EARNINGS PER SHARE In 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement No. 128, "Earnings per Share" ("Statement No. 128") which replaced the calculation of primary and fully diluted earnings per share with basic and diluted earnings per share. Unlike primary earnings per share, basic earnings per share excludes any dilutive effects of options, warrants and convertible securities. Diluted earnings per share is very similar to the previously reported fully diluted earnings per share. The conversion of OP Units into Class A common stock would not have a significant effect on per share amounts as the OP Units share proportionately with the Class A common stock in the results of the Operating Partnership's operations. STOCK OPTIONS Effective January 1, 2002 the Company has elected to follow FASB Statement No. 123, "Accounting for Stock Based Compensation" ("Statement No. 123"). Statement No. 123 requires the use of option valuation models which determine the fair value of the option on the date of the grant. All future IV-15 RECKSON ASSOCIATES REALTY CORP. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (CONTINUED) 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - (CONTINUED) employee stock option grants will be expensed over the options' vesting periods based on the fair value at the date of the grant in accordance with Statement No. 123. The Company expects minimal financial impact from the adoption of Statement No. 123. To determine the fair value of the stock options granted, the Company uses a Black-Scholes option pricing model. Historically, the Company had applied Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 ("APB No. 25") and related interpretations in accounting for its stock option plans and reported pro forma disclosures in its Form 10-K filings by estimating the fair value of options issued and the related expense in accordance with Statement No. 123 (see Note 7). Accordingly, no compensation cost had been recognized for its stock option plans prior to the Company's adoption of Statement No. 123. In December 2002, the FASB issued Statement No. 148, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation--Transition and Disclosure" ("Statement No. 148"). Statement No. 148 amends Statement No. 123 to provide alternative methods of transition for an entity that voluntarily adopts the fair value recognition method of recording stock option expense. Statement No. 148 also amends the disclosure provisions of Statement 123 and APB Opinion No. 28. "Interim Financial Reporting" to require disclosure in the summary of significant accounting policies of the effects of an entity's accounting policy with respect to stock options on reported net income and earnings per share in annual and interim financial statements. The following table sets forth the Company's pro forma information for its Class A common stockholders for the years ended December 31 (in thousands except earnings per share data): 2002 2001 2000 -------- ---------- -------- Net income (loss) as reported ..................... $ 41,604 $ (44,243) $ 62,989 Add: Stock option expense included in net income (loss) ........................................... 94 -- -- Less: Stock option expense determined under fair value recognition method for all awards ..........

For purposes of pro forma disclosures, the estimated fair value of the options is amortized to expense over the options' vesting period. DERIVATIVE INVESTMENTS FASB Statement No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," which became effective January 1, 2001 requires the Company to recognize all derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value. Derivatives that are not hedges must be adjusted to fair value through income. If a IV-16 RECKSON ASSOCIATES REALTY CORP. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (CONTINUED) 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - (CONTINUED) derivative is a hedge, depending on the nature of the hedge, changes in the fair value of the derivative will either be offset against the change in fair value of the hedged asset, liability, or firm commitment through earnings, or recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income ("OCI") until the hedged item is recognized in earnings. The ineffective portion of a derivative's change in fair value will be immediately recognized in earnings. As of January 1, 2001, the carrying value of the Company's derivatives equaled their fair value and as a result no cumulative effect changes were recorded. Additionally, as of June 30, 2001, the fair value of the Company's derivatives equaled approximately $3.7 million and was reflected in other assets and OCI on the Company's balance sheet. On July 18, 2001, the mortgage note payable to which these derivatives relate to was funded and their fair value at that time was approximately $676,000 less than their carrying value. This amount is being amortized to interest expense over the term of the mortgage note to which it relates. Because of the Company's minimal use of derivatives, the adoption of this Statement did not have a significant effect on earnings or the financial position of the Company. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS In October 2001, the FASB issued Statement No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets" ("Statement No. 144"). Statement No. 144 provides accounting guidance for financial accounting and reporting for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets. Statement No. 144 supersedes FASB Statement No. 121, Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed of. It also supersedes the accounting and reporting provisions of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 30, Reporting the Results of Operations--Reporting the Effects of Disposal of a Segment of a Business, and Extraordinary, Unusual and Infrequently Occurring Events and Transactions related to the disposal of a segment of a business. The Company adopted Statement No. 144 on January 1, 2002. The adoption of this statement did not have a material effect on the results of operations or the financial position of the Company. The adoption of Statement No. 144 does not have an impact on net income (loss) allocable to common shareholders. Statement No. 144 only impacts the presentation of the results of operations and gain (loss) on sales of real estate for those properties sold during the period within the consolidated statements of operations. On January 1, 2002, the Company adopted the provisions of FASB Statement No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets" ("Statement No. 142"). This statement makes significant changes to the accounting for business combinations, goodwill, and intangible assets. Among other provisions, Statement No. 142 requires that a portion of the purchase price of real estate acquisitions be assigned to the fair value of an intangible asset for above market operating leases or to an intangible liability for below market operating leases. Such intangible assets or liabilities are then required to be amortized into revenue over the remaining life of the respective leases. The adoption of this statement did not have an effect on the Company's results of operations or financial condition for the year ended December 31, 2002. In April 2002, the FASB issued Statement No. 145, ("Statement No. 145"), which rescinded Statement No. 4, "Reporting Gains and Losses from Extinguishment of Debt". Statement No. 145 is effective for fiscal years beginning after May 15, 2002. The Company will adopt Statement No. 145 on January 1, 2003 which will result in a change to reported net income (loss). In November 2002, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 45, "Guarantor's Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees", Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others ("FIN 45"). FIN 45 significantly changes the current practice in the accounting for, and disclosure of, guarantees. Guarantees and indemnification agreements meeting the characteristics described in FIN 45 are required to be initially recorded as a liability at fair value. FIN 45 also requires a guarantor to make significant new disclosures for virtually all guarantees even if the likelihood of the guarantor having to make payment IV-17 RECKSON ASSOCIATES REALTY CORP. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (CONTINUED) 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - (CONTINUED) under the guarantee is remote. The disclosure requirements within FIN 45 are effective for financial statements for annual or interim periods ending after December 15, 2002. The initial recognition and initial measurement provisions are applicable on a prospective basis to guarantees issued or modified after December 31, 2002. The Company is currently evaluating the effects of FIN 45 on the Company's results of operations or financial condition. In January 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 46, "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities" ("FIN 46"), which explains how to identify variable interest entities ("VIE") and how to assess whether to consolidate such entities. The provisions of this interpretation are immediately effective for VIE's formed after January 31, 2003. For VIE's formed prior to January 31, 2003, the provisions of this interpretation apply to the first fiscal year or interim period beginning after June 15, 2003. Management has not yet determined whether any of its consolidated or unconsolidated subsidiaries represent VIE's pursuant to such interpretation. Such determination could result in a change in the Company's consolidation policy related to such entities. RECLASSIFICATIONS Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. 2. MORTGAGE NOTES PAYABLE At December 31, 2002, there were 16 fixed rate mortgage notes payable with an aggregate outstanding principal amount of approximately $740.0 million. These mortgage notes are secured by properties with an aggregate carrying value at December 31, 2002 of approximately $1.5 billion and which are pledged as collateral against the mortgage notes payable. In addition, approximately $45.1 million of the $740.0 million is recourse to the Company. The mortgage notes bear interest at rates ranging from 6.45% to 10.10%, and mature between 2004 and 2027. The weighted average interest rates on the outstanding mortgage notes payable at December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000 were approximately 7.3%, 7.3% and 7.8%, respectively. Certain of the mortgage notes payable are guaranteed by certain limited partners in the Operating Partnership and / or the Company.

UNSECURED CREDIT FACILITY The Company currently has a three year $500 million unsecured revolving credit facility (the "Credit Facility") from JPMorgan Chase Bank, as administrative agent, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association as syndication agent and Citicorp North America, Inc. and Wachovia Bank, National Association as co-documentation agents. The Credit Facility matures in December 2005, contains options for a one year extension subject to a fee of 25 basis points and, upon receiving additional lender commitments, increasing the maximum revolving credit amount to $750 million. In addition, borrowings under the Credit Facility are currently priced off LIBOR plus 90 basis points and the Credit Facility carries a facility fee of 20 basis points per annum. In the event of a change in the Operating Partnership's unsecured credit rating the interests rates and facility fee are subject to change. The outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility were $267.0 million at December 31, 2002. The Credit Facility replaced the Company's $575 million unsecured credit facility (the "Prior Facility" and together with the Credit Facility, the "Credit Facility"). As a result, certain deferred loan costs incurred in connection with the Prior Facility were written off and are reflected as an extraordinary loss in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. The Company utilizes the Credit Facility primarily to finance real estate investments, fund its real estate development activities and for working capital purposes. At December 31, 2002, the Company had availability under the Credit Facility to borrow approximately an additional $203.0 million subject to compliance with certain financial covenants. The Company capitalized interest incurred on borrowings to fund certain development projects in the amount of $8.3 million, $10.2 million and $11.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively.

In addition, the Senior Unsecured Notes issued on March 26, 1999 and June 17, 2002 were issued at aggregate discounts of $738,000 and $267,500, respectively. Such discounts are being amortized over the term of the Senior Unsecured Notes to which they relate. On June 17, 2002, the Operating Partnership issued $50 million of 6.00% (6.125% effective rate) Senior Unsecured Notes. Net proceeds of approximately $49.4 million received from this issuance were used to repay outstanding borrowings under the Prior Facility. 5. LAND LEASES, AIR RIGHTS AND OPERATING LEASES The Company leases, pursuant to noncancellable operating leases, the land on which twelve of its buildings were constructed. The leases, which contain renewal options, expire between 2009 and 2084. The leases either contain provisions for scheduled increases in the minimum rent at specified intervals or for adjustments to rent based upon the fair market value of the underlying land or other indexes at specified intervals. Minimum ground rent is recognized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the leases. The excess of amounts recognized over amounts contractually due is approximately $3.3 million and $3.0 million at December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively. These amounts are included in accrued expenses and other liabilities on the accompanying balance sheets. In addition, the Company, through the acquisition of certain properties, is subject to two air rights lease agreements. These lease agreements have terms expiring between 2048 and 2073, including renewal options. Reckson Management Group, Inc. is subject to operating leases for certain of its management offices and warehouse storage space. These operating leases expire between 2003 and 2009. (see Note 8).

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (CONTINUED) 6. COMMERCIAL REAL ESTATE INVESTMENTS As of December 31, 2002, the Company owned and operated 75 office properties (inclusive of eleven office properties owned through joint ventures) comprising approximately 13.6 million square feet, 101 industrial properties comprising approximately 6.7 million square feet and two retail properties comprising approximately 20,000 square feet located in the Tri-State Area. The Company also owns approximately 338 acres of land in 14 separate parcels of which the Company can develop approximately 3.2 million square feet of office space and approximately 470,000 square feet of industrial / R&D space. Included in these development parcels is 52.7 acres of land located in Valhalla, NY which the Company acquired in April 2002 for approximately $23.8 million and which it can develop approximately 875,000 square feet of office space. The Company currently owns and operates three buildings encompassing approximately 700,000 square feet in the same office park in which this land parcel is located. This acquisition was financed in part from the sales proceeds of an office property being held by a qualified intermediary for the purposes of an exchange of real property pursuant to Section 1031 of the Code and from an advance under the Credit Facility. The Company is currently evaluating alternative land uses for certain of the land holdings to realize the highest economic value. These alternatives may include rezoning certain land parcels from commercial to residential for potential disposition. As of December 31, 2002, the Company had invested approximately $121.2 million in these development projects. Management has made subjective assessments as to the value and recoverability of these investments based on current and proposed development plans, market comparable land values and alternative use values. The Company has capitalized approximately $10.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2002 related to real estate taxes, interest and other carrying costs related to these development projects. During February 2003, the Company, through Reckson Construction Group, Inc., entered into a contract with an affiliate of First Data Corp. to sell a 19.3-acre parcel of land located in Melville, N.Y. and has been retained by the purchaser to develop a build-to-suit 195,000 square foot office building for aggregate consideration of approximately $47 million. This transaction is scheduled to close during the first quarter of 2003 and construction of the aforementioned office building is scheduled to commence shortly thereafter. The Company holds a $17.0 million note receivable which bears interest at 11.5% per annum and is secured by a minority partnership interest in Omni Partners, L.P., owner of the Omni, a 579,000 square foot Class A office property located in Uniondale, N.Y. (the "Omni Note"). The Company currently owns a 60% majority partnership interest in Omni Partners, L.P. and on March 14, 2007 may exercise an option to acquire the remaining 40% interest for a price based on 90% of the fair market value of the property. The Company also holds three other notes receivable aggregating $36.5 million which bear interest at rates ranging from 10.5% to 12% per annum and are secured in part by a minority partner's preferred unit interest in the Operating Partnership, certain interest in real property and a personal guaranty (the "Other Notes" and collectively with the Omni Note, the "Note Receivable Investments"). As of December 31, 2002, management has made subjective assessments as to the underlying security value on the Company's Note Receivable Investments. Based on these assessments the Company's management believes there is no impairment to the carrying value related to the Company's Note Receivable Investments. The Company also owns a 355,000 square foot office building in Orlando, Florida. This non-core real estate holding was acquired in May 1999 in connection with the Company's initial New York City portfolio acquisition. This property is cross collateralized under a $103 million mortgage note payable along with one of the Company's New York City buildings. The Company also owns a 60% non-controlling interest in a 172,000 square foot office building located at 520 White Plains Road in White Plains, New York (the "520JV") which it manages. The remaining 40% interest is owned by JAH Realties L.P. Jon Halpern, the CEO and a director of HQ Global Workplaces, is a partner in JAH Realties, L.P. As of December 31, 2002, the 520JV had total IV-21 RECKSON ASSOCIATES REALTY CORP. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (CONTINUED) 6. COMMERCIAL REAL ESTATE INVESTMENTS - (CONTINUED) assets of $21.0 million, a mortgage note payable of $12.5 million and other liabilities of $197,000. The Company's allocable share of the 520JV mortgage note payable is approximately $7.5 million. This mortgage note payable bears interest at 8.85% per annum and matures on September 1, 2005. In addition, the 520JV had total revenues of $4.2 million and $4.0 million and total expenses of $3.3 million and $3.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively. The operating agreement of the 520JV requires joint decisions from all members on all significant operating and capital decisions including sale of the property, refinancing of the property's mortgage debt, development and approval of leasing strategy and leasing of rentable space. As a result of the decision-making participation relative to the operations of the property, the Company accounts for the 520JV under the equity method of accounting. The 520JV contributed approximately $648,000 and $478,000 to the Company's equity in earnings of real estate joint ventures for the year ended December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively. On August 7, 2002, the Company sold an industrial property on Long Island aggregating approximately 32,000 square feet for approximately $1.8 million. This property was sold to the sole tenant of the property through an option contained in the tenant's lease. On August 8, 2002, the Company sold two Class A office properties located in Westchester County, NY aggregating approximately 157,000 square feet for approximately $18.5 million. Net proceeds from these sales were used to repay borrowings under the Credit Facility and for general corporate purposes. The Company recorded an aggregate net gain of approximately $4.9 million as a result of these sales. In addition, in accordance with Statement No. 144, the operating results of these properties and the resulting gain on sales of real estate have been reflected as discontinued operations for all periods presented on the accompanying statements of operations. During September 2000, the Company formed a joint venture (the "Tri-State JV") with Teachers Insurance and Annuity Association ("TIAA") and contributed nine Class A suburban office properties aggregating approximately 1.5 million square feet to the Tri-State JV for a 51% majority ownership interest. TIAA contributed approximately $136 million for a 49% interest in the Tri-State JV which was then distributed to the Company. As a result, the Company realized a gain of approximately $15.2 million. The Company is responsible for managing the day-to-day operations and business affairs of the Tri-State JV and has substantial rights in making decisions affecting the properties such as leasing, marketing and financing. The minority member has certain rights primarily intended to protect its investment. For purposes of its financial statements the Company consolidates the Tri-State JV. On December 21, 2001, the Company formed a joint venture with the New York State Teachers' Retirement System ("NYSTRS") (the "919JV") whereby NYSTRS acquired a 49% indirect interest in the property located at 919 Third Avenue, New York, NY for $220.5 million which included $122.1 million of its proportionate share of secured mortgage debt and approximately $98.4 million of cash which was then distributed to the Company. As a result, the Company realized a gain of approximately $18.9 million. The Company is responsible for managing the day-to-day operations and business affairs of the 919JV and has substantial rights in making decisions affecting the property such as developing a budget, leasing and marketing. The minority member has certain rights primarily intended to protect its investment. For purposes of its financial statements the Company consolidates the 919JV. 7. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY An OP Unit and a share of Class A common stock have essentially the same economic characteristics as they effectively share equally in the net income or loss and distributions of the Operating Partnership. Subject to certain holding periods, OP Units may either be redeemed for cash or, at the election of the Company, for shares of Class A common stock on a one-for-one basis. On December 31, 2002, the Company had issued and outstanding 9,915,313 shares of Class B Exchangeable Common Stock, par value $.01 per share (the "Class B common stock"). The dividend on IV-22 RECKSON ASSOCIATES REALTY CORP. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (CONTINUED) 7. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY - (CONTINUED) the shares of Class B common stock is subject to adjustment annually based on a formula which measures increases or decreases in the Company's Funds From Operations, as defined, over a base year. The Class B common stock currently receives an annual dividend of $2.5884 per share. The shares of Class B common stock are exchangeable at any time, at the option of the holder, into an equal number of shares of Class A common stock, par value $.01 per share, of the Company subject to customary antidilution adjustments. The Company, at its option, may redeem any or all of the Class B common stock in exchange for an equal number of shares of the Company's Class A common stock at any time following November 23, 2003. The Board of Directors of the Company has authorized the purchase of up to five million shares of the Company's Class A common stock and / or its Class B common stock. It is anticipated that transactions conducted on the New York Stock Exchange will be effected in accordance with the safe harbor provisions of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and may be terminated by the Company at any time. As of December 31, 2002, under this buy-back program, the Company purchased 368,200 shares of Class B common stock at an average price of $22.90 per Class B share and 2,698,400 shares of Class A common stock at an average price of $21.60 per Class A share for an aggregate purchase price for both the Class A and Class B common stock of approximately $66.7 million. As a result of these purchases, annual common stock dividends will decrease by approximately $5.5 million. Previously, under the Company's prior stock buy-back program, the Company purchased and retired 1,410,804 shares of Class B common stock at an average price of $21.48 per Class B share and 61,704 shares of Class A common stock at an average price of $23.03 per Class A share for an aggregate purchase price for both the Class A and Class B common stock of approximately $31.7 million. The Board of Directors of the Company has formed a pricing committee to consider purchases of up to $75 million of the Company's outstanding preferred securities. On December 31, 2002, the Company had issued and outstanding 8,834,500 shares of 7.625% Series A Convertible Cumulative Preferred Stock (the "Series A preferred stock"). The Series A preferred stock is redeemable by the Company on or after April 13, 2003 at a price of approximately $25.95 per share with such price decreasing, at annual intervals, to $25.00 per share over a five year period. In addition, the Series A preferred stock, at the option of the holder, is convertible at anytime into the Company's Class A common stock at a price of $28.51 per share. On October 14, 2002, the Company purchased and retired 357,500 shares of the Series A Preferred stock at $22.29 per share for approximately $8.0 million. As a result of this purchase, annual preferred dividends will decrease by approximately $682,000. The Company currently has issued and outstanding two million shares of Series B Convertible Cumulative Preferred Stock (the "Series B preferred stock"). The Series B preferred stock is redeemable by the Company as follows: (i) on or after March 2, 2002 to and including June 2, 2003, at an amount which provides an annual rate of return in respect to such share of 15%, (ii) on or after June 3, 2003 to and including June 2, 2004, $25.50 per share and (iii) on or after June 3, 2004 and thereafter, $25.00 per share.

In addition, 666,468 OP Units were exchanged for an equal number of shares of the Company's Class A common stock. IV-23 RECKSON ASSOCIATES REALTY CORP. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (CONTINUED) 7. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY - (CONTINUED) During the year ended December 31, 2001, approximately 11,553 preferred units of limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership, with a liquidation preference value of approximately $11.6 million, were exchanged for 456,351 OP Units at an average price of $25.32 per OP Unit. In addition, 660,370 OP Units were exchanged for an equal number of shares of the Company's Class A common stock. In October 2000, the Company instituted a Shareholder Rights Plan (the "Rights Plan") designed to protect shareholders from various abusive takeover tactics, including attempts to acquire control of the Company at an inadequate price. Under the Rights Plan, each shareholder receives one Right to acquire one one-thousandth of a share of a series of junior participating preferred stock at an initial purchase price of $84.44 for each share of the Company's outstanding Class A common stock owned. The Rights will be exercisable only if a person or group acquires, or announces an intention to acquire, 15% or more of the Company's Class A common stock, or announces a tender offer which would result in beneficial ownership by a person or group of 15% or more of the Class A common stock. If any person acquires 15% or more of the outstanding shares of Class A common stock or if the Company is acquired in a merger after such an acquisition, all Rights holders except the acquiring person will be entitled to purchase the Company's Class A common stock at a discounted price. The Rights will expire at the close of business on October 13, 2010, unless earlier redeemed by the Company. During July 1998, the Company formed Metropolitan Partners, LLC ("Metropolitan") for the purpose of acquiring Class A office properties in New York City. In May 2001, a minority partner that owned an $85 million preferred equity investment in Metropolitan converted its preferred equity investment into 3,453,881 shares of the Company's Class A common stock based on a conversion price of $24.61 per share. As a result of the minority partner's conversion of their preferred equity investment, the Company owns 100% of Metropolitan. The Company has historically structured long term incentive programs ("LTIP") using restricted stock and stock loans. In July 2002, as a result of certain provisions of the Sarbanes Oxley legislation, the Company has discontinued the use of stock loans in its LTIP. In connection with LTIP grants made prior to the enactment of the Sarbanes Oxley legislation the Company made stock loans to certain executive and senior officers to purchase 1,372,393 shares of its Class A common stock at market prices ranging from $18.44 per share to $27.13 per share. The stock loans were set to bear interest at the mid-term Applicable Federal Rate and were secured by the shares purchased. Such stock loans (including accrued interest) vest and are ratably forgiven each year on the anniversary of the grant date based upon vesting periods ranging from four to ten years based on continued service and in part on attaining certain annual performance measures. These stock loans had an initial aggregate weighted average vesting period of approximately nine years. Approximately $4.5 million and $3.7 million of compensation expense was recorded for the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively, related to these LTIP. Such amount has been included in marketing, general and administrative expenses on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. During 2002, approximately $3.9 million of stock loans made in prior years in connection with the aforementioned LTIP matured. These stock loans were secured by 155,418 shares of Class A common stock which were issued at prices ranging from $22.50 per share to $27.13 per share. As a result of the Company discontinuing the use of stock loans as part of its LTIP the stock loans were satisfied with restricted stock held by the Company which secured the stock loans. The aggregate market value of these shares on the maturity dates of the stock loans was approximately $3.4 million. The aggregate difference between the market value of these shares and the carrying value of the stock loans was recorded as a loss on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. The 155,418 shares of Class A common stock were subsequently retired by the Company. IV-24 RECKSON ASSOCIATES REALTY CORP. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (CONTINUED) 7. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY - (CONTINUED) The outstanding stock loan balances due from executive and senior officers aggregated approximately $17.0 million and $24.3 million at December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively, and have been included as a reduction of additional paid in capital on the accompanying consolidated statements of stockholders' equity. Other outstanding loans to executive and senior officers amounting to approximately $1.0 million at December 31, 2002 and 2001, related to life insurance contracts and approximately $1.0 million and $.9 million at December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively, primarily related to tax payment advances on a stock compensation award made to a non-executive officer. In November 2002, the Company granted rights to 190,524 shares of its Class A common stock to certain executive officers. These shares vest ratably over a four year period and will be issued in ratable installments on each anniversary date of the grant as compensation to the executive officer. The Company has established a new LTIP for its executive and senior officers. The four year plan has a core component which provides for annual stock based compensation based upon continued service and in part based on attaining certain annual performance measures. The plan has a special long term component which provides for compensation to be earned at the end of a four year period if the Company attains certain four year cumulative performance measures. Amounts earned under the special long term component may be paid in cash or stock at the discretion of the Compensation Committee of the Board. Performance measures are based on total shareholder returns on a relative and absolute basis. The following table sets forth the Company's reconciliation of numerators and denominators of the basic and diluted earnings per weighted average common share and the computation of basic and diluted net income (loss) per weighted average share for the Company's Class A common stock as required by Statement No. 128 for the years ended December 31 (in thousands except for earnings per share data): 2002 2001 2000 --------- ---------- --------- Numerator: Income (loss) before dividends to preferred shareholders, discontinued operations, extraordinary loss and income allocated to Class B shareholders ............................. $ 73,941 $ (34,425) $ 111,589 Dividends to preferred shareholders ............................

Employee Stock Option Plans and Related Disclosures The Company has five outstanding stock option plans (the "Plans") for the purpose of attracting and retaining executive officers, directors and other key employees. The following table sets forth the authorized shares of Class A common stock which have been reserved for issuance under the Plans, the options granted under the Plans and their corresponding exercise price range per share as of December 31, 2002: CLASS A COMMON OPTIONS EXERCISE PRICE RANGE SHARES GRANTED ----------------------- RESERVED (1) (2) FROM (1) TO (1) --------- --------- -------- -------- Amended and Restated 1995 Stock Option Plan ............................ 1,500,000 1,545,038 $ 12.04 $ 25.56 1996 Employee Stock Option Plan ......... 400,000 269,600 $ 19.67 $ 26.13 Amended and Restated 1997 Stock Option Plan ............................ 3,000,000 2,525,965 $ 22.67 $ 27.04 1998 Stock Optoin Plan .................. 3,000,000 2,280,501 $ 17.75 $ 25.67 2002 Stock Option Plan .................. 1,500,000 -- -- -- --------- --------- Total ................................... 9,400,000 6,621,104 ========= ========= ---------------- (1) Exercise prices have been split adjusted, where applicable. (2) Inclusive of options subsequently forfeited by grantees and exclusive of share grants. Options granted to employees generally vest in three equal installments on the first, second and third anniversaries of the date of the grant. The independent directors of the Company have been granted options to purchase 116,000 shares of Class A common stock pursuant to the Amended and Restated 1995 Stock Option Plan at exercise prices ranging from $12.04 to $25.56 per share and options to purchase 43,000 shares of Class A common stock pursuant to the Amended and Restated 1997 Stock Option Plan at exercise prices ranging from $24.70 to $25.23 per share. The options granted to the independent directors were exercisable on the date of the grant. IV-27 RECKSON ASSOCIATES REALTY CORP. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (CONTINUED) 7. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY - (CONTINUED) Two former independent directors of the Company were previously granted options to purchase 62,500 shares of Class A common stock pursuant to the Amended and Restated 1995 Stock Option Plan. During 2002, these former independent directors exercised 26,000 options resulting in proceeds to the Company of approximately $422,000. During 2002 and 2001, employees exercised 389,283 and 182,596 options, respectively resulting in proceeds to the Company of approximately $5.9 million and $2.8 million, respectively. Prior to 2002, the Company applied APB No. 25 and related interpretation in accounting for its Plans and reported only pro forma information regarding net income and earnings per share determined as if the Company had accounted for its Plans under the fair value method as required by Statement No. 123 in the footnotes to its financial statements. The Black-Scholes option valuation model was developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options which have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable. In addition, option valuation models require the input of highly subjective assumptions including the expected stock price volatility. Because the Company's Plans have characteristics significantly different from those of traded options and because changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate, in management's opinion, the existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable single measure of the fair value of its employee stock options. The following table summarizes the Company's stock option activity and related information: WEIGHTED-AVERAGE OPTIONS EXERCISE PRICE --------- ---------------- Outstanding - January 1, 2000 ........... 5,173,921 $ 22.17 Granted ................................ 737,750 $ 22.86 Exercised ..............................

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (CONTINUED) Exercise prices for options outstanding, under all Plans, as of December 31, 2002 ranged from $12.04 per share to $27.04 per share. The weighted-average remaining contractual life of those options is approximately 5.81 years. 8. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS In connection with the IPO, the Company was granted ten year options to acquire ten properties (the "Option Properties") which are either owned by certain Rechler family members who are also executive officers of the Company, or in which the Rechler family members own a non-controlling minority interest at a price based upon an agreed upon formula. In years prior to 2001, one Option Property was sold by the Rechler family members to a third party and four of the Option Properties were acquired by the Company for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $35 million, which included the issuance of approximately 475,000 OP Units valued at approximately $8.8 million. Currently, certain Rechler family members retain their equity interests in the five remaining Option Properties (the "Remaining Option Properties") which were not contributed to the Company as part of the IPO. Such options provide the Company the right to acquire fee interest in two of the Remaining Option Properties and the Rechler's minority interests in three Remaining Option Properties. The Independent Directors are currently reviewing whether the Company should exercise one or more of the options relating to the Remaining Option Properties. The Company conducts its management, leasing and construction related services through taxable REIT subsidiaries as defined by the Code. These services are currently provided by the Service Companies in which, as of September 30, 2002, the Operating Partnership owned a 97% non-controlling interest. An entity which is substantially owned by certain Rechler family members who are also executive officers of the Company owned a 3% controlling interest in the Service Companies. In order to minimize the potential for corporate conflicts of interests which became possible as a result of changes to the Code that permit REITs to own 100% of taxable REIT subsidiaries, the Independent Directors of the Company approved the purchase by the Operating Partnership of the remaining 3% interest in the Service Companies. On October 1, 2002, the Operating Partnership acquired such 3% interests in the Service Companies for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $122,000. Such amount was less than the total amount of capital contributed to the Service Companies by the Rechler family members. As a result of the acquisition of the remaining interests in the Service Companies, the Operating Partnership commenced consolidating the operations of the Service Companies. During 2002, Reckson Construction Group, Inc. billed approximately $144,000 of market rate services and Reckson Management Group, Inc. billed approximately $313,000 of market rate management fees to the Remaining Option Properties. In addition, for the year ended December 31, 2002, Reckson Construction Group, Inc. performed market rate services, aggregating approximately $322,000 for a property in which certain executive officers maintain an equity interest. Reckson Management Group, Inc. leases 43,713 square feet of office and storage space at a Remaining Option Property for its corporate offices located in Melville, New York at an annual base rent of approximately $1.2 million. Reckson Management Group, Inc. also leases 10,722 square feet of warehouse space used for equipment, materials and inventory storage at a Remaining Option Property located in Deer Park, New York at an annual base rent of approximately $75,000. A company affiliated with an Independent Director of the Company leases 15,566 square feet in a property owned by the Company at an annual base rent of approximately $431,500. Reckson Strategic Venture Partners, LLC ("RSVP") leases 5,144 square feet in one of the Company's joint venture properties at an annual base rent of approximately $176,000. During 1997, the Company formed FrontLine Capital Group, formerly Reckson Service Industries, Inc. ("FrontLine") and RSVP. RSVP is a real estate venture capital fund which invests primarily in real estate and real estate operating companies outside the Company's core office and industrial focus and whose common equity is held indirectly by FrontLine. In connection with the formation and spin-off of IV-29 RECKSON ASSOCIATES REALTY CORP. NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (CONTINUED) 8. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS - (CONTINUED) FrontLine, the Operating Partnership established an unsecured credit facility with FrontLine (the "FrontLine Facility") in the amount of $100 million for FrontLine to use in its investment activities, operations and other general corporate purposes. The Company advanced approximately $93.4 million under the FrontLine Facility. The Operating Partnership also approved the funding of investments of up to $100 million relating to RSVP (the "RSVP Commitment"), through RSVP-controlled joint ventures (for REIT-qualified investments) or advances made to FrontLine under an unsecured loan facility (the "RSVP Facility") having terms similar to the FrontLine Facility (advances made under the RSVP Facility and the FrontLine Facility hereafter, the "FrontLine Loans"). During March 2001, the Company increased the RSVP Commitment to $110 million and as of December 31, 2002, approximately $109.1 million had been funded through the RSVP Commitment, of which $59.8 million represents investments by the Company in RSVP-controlled (REIT-qualified) joint ventures and $49.3 million represents loans made to FrontLine under the RSVP Facility. As of December 31, 2002, interest accrued (net of reserves) under the FrontLine Facility and the RSVP Facility was approximately $19.6 million. RSVP retained the services of two managing directors to manage RSVP's day to day operations. Prior to the spin off of Frontline, the Company guaranteed certain salary provisions of their employment agreements with RSVP Holdings, LLC, RSVP's common member. The term of these employment agreements is seven years commencing March 5, 1998, provided however, that the term may be earlier terminated after five years upon certain circumstances. The salary for each managing director is $1 million in the first five years and $1.6 million in years six and seven. At June 30, 2001, the Company assessed the recoverability of the FrontLine Loans and reserved approximately $3.5 million of the interest accrued during the three-month period then ended. In addition, the Company formed a committee of its Board of Directors, comprised solely of independent directors, to consider any actions to be taken by the Company in connection with the FrontLine Loans and its investments in joint ventures with RSVP. During the third quarter of 2001, the Company noted a significant deterioration in FrontLine's operations and financial condition and, based on its assessment of value and recoverability and considering the findings and recommendations of the committee and its financial advisor, the Company recorded a $163 million valuation reserve charge, inclusive of anticipated costs, in its consolidated statements of operations relating to its investments in the FrontLine Loans and joint ventures with RSVP. The Company has discontinued the accrual of interest income with respect to the FrontLine Loans. The Company has also reserved against its share of GAAP equity in earnings from the RSVP controlled joint ventures funded through the RSVP Commitment until such income is realized through cash distributions. If the RSVP- controlled joint ventures reported losses the Company would record its proportionate share of such losses. At December 31, 2001, the Company, pursuant to Section 166 of the Code, charged off for tax purposes $70 million of the aforementioned reserve directly related to the FrontLine Facility, including accrued interest. On February 14, 2002, the Company charged off for tax purposes an additional $38 million of the reserve directly related to the FrontLine Facility, including accrued interest, and $47 million of the reserve directly related to the RSVP Facility, including accrued interest. FrontLine is in default under the FrontLine Loans from the Operating Partnership and on June 12, 2002, filed a voluntary petition for relief under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. As a result of the foregoing, the net carrying value of the Company's investments in the FrontLine Loans and joint venture investments with RSVP, inclusive of the Company's share of previously accrued GAAP equity in earnings on those investments, is approximately $65 million which was reassessed with no change by management as of December 31, 2002. Such amount has been reflected in investments in service companies and affiliate loans and joint ventures on the Company's consolidated balance sheet. The common and preferred members of RSVP are currently in dispute over certain provisions of the RSVP operating agreement. The members are currently negotiating to restructure the RSVP operating agreement to settle the dispute. There can be no assurances that the members will successfully negotiate a settlement. IV-30 RECKSON ASSOCIATES REALTY CORP. NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (CONTINUED) 8. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS - (CONTINUED) Both the FrontLine Facility and the RSVP Facility terminate on June 15, 2003, are unsecured and advances thereunder are recourse obligations of FrontLine. Notwithstanding the valuation reserve, under the terms of the credit facilities, interest accrued on the FrontLine Loans at a rate equal to the greater of (a) the prime rate plus two percent and (b) 12% per annum, with the rate on amounts that were outstanding for more than one year increasing annually at a rate of four percent of the prior year's rate. In March 2001, the credit facilities were amended to provide that (i) interest is payable only at maturity and (ii) the Company may transfer all or any portion of its rights or obligations under the credit facilities to its affiliates. The Company requested these changes as a result of changes in REIT tax laws. As a result of FrontLine's default under the FrontLine Loans, interest on borrowings thereunder accrue at default rates ranging between 13% and 14.5% per annum. Scott H. Rechler, who serves as Co-Chief Executive Officer and a director of the Company, serves as CEO and Chairman of the Board of Directors of FrontLine. 9. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS In accordance with FASB Statement No. 107, "Disclosures About Fair Value of Financial Instruments", management has made the following disclosures of estimated fair value at December 31, 2002 as required by FASB Statement No. 107. Cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses and variable rate debt are carried at amounts which reasonably approximate their fair values. The fair value of the Company's long-term debt, mortgage notes and notes receivable is estimated based on discounting future cash flows at interest rates that management believes reflects the risks associated with long-term debt, mortgage notes and notes receivable of similar risk and duration. At December 31, 2002, the estimated aggregate fair value of the Company's notes and mortgage notes receivable exceeded their carrying value by approximately $1.2 million and the aggregate fair value of the Company's long term debt exceeded its carrying value by approximately $20.3 million. Considerable judgment is necessary to interpret market data and develop estimated fair value. The use of different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts. 10. RENTAL INCOME The Company's office and industrial / R&D properties are being leased to tenants under operating leases. The minimum rental amount due under certain leases are generally either subject to scheduled fixed increases or indexed escalations. In addition, the leases generally also require that the tenants reimburse the Company for increases in certain operating costs and real estate taxes above base year costs. Expected future minimum rents to be received over the next five years and thereafter from leases in effect at December 31, 2002 are as follows (in thousands): 2003 ............... $ 409,143 2004 ............... 395,029 2005 ............... 355,969 2006 ............... 309,136 2007 ............... 267,376 Thereafter ......... 1,291,328 ----------------------------------- $ 3,027,981 =================================== IV-31 RECKSON ASSOCIATES REALTY CORP. NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (CONTINUED) 10. RENTAL INCOME - (CONTINUED) Minimum rental income is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. The excess of rents recognized over amounts contractually due are included in deferred rents receivable on the accompanying balances sheets. Contractually due but unpaid rents are included in tenant receivables on the accompanying balance sheets. During the year ended December 31, 2002, the Company incurred approximately $6.3 million of bad debt expense related to tenant receivables and deferred rents receivable which accordingly reduced total operating revenues on the accompanying statements of operations. 11. SEGMENT DISCLOSURE The Company owns all of the interests in its real estate properties directly or indirectly through the Operating Partnership. The Company's portfolio consists of Class A office properties located within the New York City metropolitan area and Class A suburban office and industrial / R&D properties located and operated within the Tri-State Area (the "Core Portfolio"). The Company's portfolio also includes one office property located in Orlando, Florida. The Company has Managing Directors who report directly to the Co-Presidents and Chief Financial Officer who have been identified as the Chief Operating Decision Makers due to their final authority over resource allocation, decisions and performance assessment. The Company does not consider (i) interest incurred on its Credit Facility and Senior Unsecured Notes, (ii) the operating performance of the office property located in Orlando, Florida, (iii) the operating performance of those properties reflected as discontinued operations on the Company's consolidated statements of operations and (iv) the operating results of the Service Companies as part of its Core Portfolio's property operating performance for purposes of its component disclosure set forth below. The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (CONTINUED) 13. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES The Company has entered into amended and restated employment and noncompetition agreements with its chairman and six executive officers. The agreements are for five years and expire on August 15, 2005. The Company had outstanding undrawn letters of credit against its Credit Facility of approximately $1.0 million and $37.4 million at December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively. The Company sponsors a defined contribution savings plan pursuant to Section 401(k) of the Code. Under such plan, there are no prior service costs. Employees are generally eligible to participate in the plan after six months of service. Employer contributions are based on a discretionary amount determined by the Company's management. As of December 31, 2002, the Company has not made any contributions to the plan. HQ Global Workplaces, Inc. ("HQ"), one of the largest providers of flexible officing solutions in the world and which is controlled by FrontLine, currently operates nine (formerly eleven) executive office centers in the Company's properties, three of which are held through joint ventures. The leases under which these office centers operate expire between 2008 and 2011, encompass approximately 202,000 square feet and have current contractual annual base rents of approximately $6.1 million. On March 13, 2002, as a result of experiencing financial difficulties, HQ voluntarily filed a petition for relief under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. Subsequent to HQ filing for bankruptcy protection it defaulted under their leases with the Company. Further, effective March 13, 2002, the Bankruptcy Court granted HQ's petition to reject two of its leases with the Company. The two rejected leases aggregated approximately 23,900 square feet and provided for contractual base rents of approximately $548,000 for the 2002 calendar year. Commencing April 1, 2002 and pursuant to the bankruptcy filing, HQ has been paying current rental charges under its leases with the Company, other than under the two rejected leases. The Company is in negotiation to restructure four of the leases and leave the terms of the remaining five leases unchanged. All negotiations with HQ are conducted through a committee designated by the Board and chaired by an independent director. There can be no assurance as to whether any deal will be consummated with HQ or if HQ will affirm or reject any or all of its remaining leases with the Company. As a result of the foregoing, the Company has reserved approximately $550,000 (net of minority partners' interests and including the Company's share of unconsolidated joint venture interest), or 74%, of the amounts due from HQ as of December 31, 2002. Scott H. Rechler serves as the non-Executive Chairman of the Board and Jon Halpern is the Chief Executive Officer and a director of HQ. WorldCom/MCI and its affiliates ("WorldCom"), a telecommunications company, which leased, as of December 31, 2002, approximately 527,000 square feet in thirteen of the Company's properties located throughout the Tri-State Area voluntarily filed a petition for relief under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code on July 21, 2002. The total annualized base rental revenue from these leases amounted to approximately $12.0 million, or 2.9% of the Company's total 2002 annualized rental revenue, making it the Company's second largest tenant based on base rental revenue earned on a consolidated basis. All of WorldCom's leases were current on base rental charges through December 31, 2002 and the Company currently holds approximately $300,000 in security deposits relating to these leases. In February 2003, the Bankruptcy Court granted WorldCom's petition to reject three of its leases with the Company. The three rejected leases aggregated approximately 192,000 square feet and provided for contractual base rents of approximately $4.8 million for the 2002 calendar year. The Company is currently in negotiations to restructure the remaining WorldCom leases. There can be no assurance as to whether WorldCom will affirm or reject any or all of its remaining leases with the Company. As a result of the foregoing, the Company has written off approximately $1.1 million of deferred rent receivable. In addition, the Company reserved an additional $475,000 against the deferred rents receivable representing approximately 46% of the outstanding deferred rents receivable attributable to the remaining WorldCom leases. MetroMedia Fiber Network Services, Inc. ("MetroMedia"), which leased approximately 112,000 square feet in one property from the Company, voluntarily filed a petition for relief under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code in May 2002. MetroMedia's lease with the Company provided for contractual base rent of IV-34 RECKSON ASSOCIATES REALTY CORP. NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (CONTINUED) 13. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES - (CONTINUED) approximately $25 per square foot amounting to $2.8 million per calendar year and expired in May 2010. In July 2002, the Bankruptcy Court granted MetroMedia's petition to restructure and reduce space under its existing lease. As a result, the lease was amended to reduce MetroMedia's space by 80,357 square feet to 31,718 square feet. Annual base rent on the 31,718 square feet MetroMedia will continue to lease is $25 per square foot amounting to approximately $793,000 per annum. Further, pursuant to the Bankruptcy Court order MetroMedia is required to pay to the Company a surrender fee of approximately $1.8 million. As a result of the foregoing the Company wrote-off approximately $388,000 of deferred rent receivable relating to this lease and recognized the aforementioned surrender fee. Arthur Andersen, LLP ("AA") leased approximately 38,000 square feet in one of the Company's New York City buildings. AA's lease with the Company provided for base rent of approximately $2 million on an annualized basis and expired in April 2004. AA has experienced significant financial difficulties with its business and as a result has entered into a lease termination agreement with the Company effective November 30, 2002. In October 2002, AA paid the Company for all base rental and other charges through November 30, 2002 and a lease termination fee of approximately $144,000. As a result of the foregoing, the Company has written off approximately $130,000 of deferred rent receivable attributable to AA's lease. 14.
