GEORGE R. PUSKAR                                        EDWARD LOWENTHAL

                                                                    May 8, 2003


                  THE QUESTION FOR POST SHAREHOLDERS IS SIMPLE:
                 WHO DO YOU TRUST TO ENHANCE SHAREHOLDER VALUE?



Dear Fellow Post Properties Shareholder:

        We are the designated Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Post
Properties, if the slate of independent director nominees is elected at the May
22 Annual Meeting. Between us, we have 52 years of multifamily real estate
experience, 11 years of public company CEO/President experience, and 9 other
past or present public company directorships.

        WE BOTH TAKE OUR RESPONSIBILITY TO POST SHAREHOLDERS VERY SERIOUSLY.
That's why we're in this contest, which, once you cut through all the rhetoric,
is about enhancing the value of your shares in Post and putting in place the
team which is best equipped to do that.

If elected, our nominees would immediately:

o   FORM A SPECIAL COMMITTEE OF INDEPENDENT DIRECTORS TO EVALUATE ALL STRATEGIC
    ALTERNATIVES, INCLUDING A SALE OF THE COMPANY OR A MERGER, AND PURSUE THOSE
    THAT WILL MAXIMIZE SHAREHOLDER VALUE. The special committee will not include
    John Williams;

o   Put in place measures to improve operating performance under the direction
    of our new Chief Executive Officer, who will also be appointed to the Board

o   Communicate with shareholders in an open and straightforward manner in
    keeping WITH OUR COMMITMENT TO THE HIGHEST STANDARDS OF CORPORATE
    GOVERNANCE

o   Appoint to the Post Board Craig G. Vought, a well regarded real estate
    professional who initiated AND NEGOTIATED THE $7.2 BILLION MERGER OF SPIEKER
    PROPERTIES INTO EQUITY OFFICE PROPERTIES.

        UNFORTUNATELY, THE RECORD OF THE INCUMBENT DIRECTORS DOES NOT SHOW ANY
WILLINGNESS TO TAKE THE ACTIONS WE BELIEVE ARE NECESSARY TO ENHANCE SHAREHOLDER
VALUE:

o  They say they are committed to protecting and enhancing the value of all our
   shares, yet they failed to explore a bona fide, cash acquisition proposal not
   subject to any financing condition they received on March 14, 2003, which
   followed an earlier expression of interest on February 19, 2003.




        FRANKLY, WE FIND IT SURPRISING THAT DIRECTORS OF A PUBLIC COMPANY WOULD
NOT AT LEAST PURSUE DISCUSSIONS WITH A POTENTIAL BUYER WHO OFFERED SUCH AN
OPENING PROPOSAL, ESPECIALLY WHEN THE OFFER WAS BACKED BY ONE OF THE WORLD'S
LARGEST PENSION FUNDS.

o  They claim to be reviewing all strategic alternatives on an ongoing basis -
   BUT REFUSE TO FORM A SPECIAL COMMITTEE OF INDEPENDENT DIRECTORS TO EXPLORE
   ALTERNATIVES TO ENHANCE SHAREHOLDER VALUE;

o  They hastily embraced some of OUR shareholder friendly corporate governance
   provisions - AFTER PROPOSING JUST THE OPPOSITE - THE ADOPTION OF SEVERAL
   ANTI-TAKEOVER INITIATIVES - JUST THREE MONTHS AGO;

o  They accused John Williams of a conflict of interest for his unit holdings -
   WHILE TWO OTHER CURRENT DIRECTORS HOLD A COMPARABLE OR EVEN GREATER
   PERCENTAGE OF THEIR POST INVESTMENT IN THE FORM OF UNITS.

        ON MARCH 14, 2003, THE COMPANY'S SHARE PRICE CLOSED AT $22.95. SINCE
THAT TIME, THE STOCK HAS TRADED UP, BY AS MUCH AS 19%. OUR OPINION IS THAT THE
INCREASE IS NOT A RESULT OF ANYTHING THE CURRENT BOARD AND MANAGEMENT HAS DONE.
HOW MUCH LOWER DO YOU THINK THE STOCK WOULD BE IF WE HADN'T INITIATED THIS
PROCESS?

        The incumbent directors cannot claim that they were not alerted that
John Williams considered their actions and inactions to be contrary to the
interests of all shareholders, as excerpts from John Williams' correspondence
with the Board* demonstrate:

o   Commenting on the GID acquisition proposal: "IT IS OUR DUTY AND
    OBLIGATION AS DIRECTORS OF THE COMPANY TO ALWAYS SEEK TO MAXIMIZE THE
    FULL VALUE OF OUR COMPANY FOR OUR SHAREHOLDERS AND UNITHOLDERS, to the
    exclusion of any other interest."

                              John Williams letter to Board, February 20, 2003


o   "CLEARLY, THE BEST WAY TO EXPLORE ENHANCING SHAREHOLDER AND UNITHOLDER VALUE
    IS BY FORMING A SPECIAL COMMITTEE OF INDEPENDENT DIRECTORS to consider
    alternatives and to recommend to the board a course of action
    which will enhance shareholder value."

                              John Williams letter to Board, February 20, 2003


o   On the Board's consideration of anti-takeover provisions: "AMENDING OUR
    BYLAWS IN THE MANNER PREVIOUSLY PROPOSED IS THE VERY TYPE OF ACTION THAT
    IS INAPPROPRIATE AT THIS TIME."

                              John Williams letter to Board, February 20, 2003

WWW.POSTSHAREHOLDERS.COM.



        Neither do we believe that shareholders can ignore Mr. Williams' recent
pledge that:

o   "IF OUR SLATE IS ELECTED, THE COMPANY RECEIVES AN ALL-CASH ACQUISITION
    PROPOSAL, AND THE SPECIAL COMMITTEE OF INDEPENDENT DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS
    ACCEPTANCE OF THE PROPOSAL AS BEING IN THE BEST INTERESTS OF POST'S
    SHAREHOLDERS, I WILL VOTE ALL OF MY SHARES AND PARTNERSHIP UNITS IN FAVOR OF
    THE PROPOSAL - REGARDLESS OF ANY TAX CONSEQUENCES TO ME."

                                    John Williams letter to Board, May 6, 2003


        Will the other directors with significant unit holdings make the same
commitment to Post shareholders?

THE RECORD OF THE CURRENT BOARD HAS BEEN VERY DISAPPOINTING. WE STRONGLY DOUBT
THEY WILL CHANGE THEIR WAYS, JUST LIKE A LEOPARD CANNOT CHANGE ITS SPOTS. WE
ASK:

               WHO CAN YOU TRUST TO ENHANCE SHAREHOLDER VALUE?

        Let's take the next step, elect the independent slate, and get started
with the real work of realizing value for ALL shareholders.

                 THERE ARE ONLY 14 DAYS UNTIL THE ANNUAL MEETING
