-2- PART 1 This Form 10-K, together with other statements and information publicly disseminated by the Company, contains certain 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. Such statements are based on assumptions and expectations which may not be realized and are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties, many of which cannot be predicted with accuracy and some of which might not even be anticipated. Future events and actual results, financial and otherwise, may differ materially from the results discussed in the forward-looking statements. Risks and other factors that might cause such a difference include, but are not limited to, the effect of economic and market conditions; risks that the Company's acquisition and development projects will fail to perform as expected; financing risks, such as the inability to obtain debt or equity financing on favorable terms; the level and volatility of interest rates; loss or bankruptcy of one or more of the Company's major retail tenants; and failure of the Company's properties to generate additional income to offset increases in operating expenses, as well as other risks listed herein under "Item 1. Business" and from time to time in the Company's reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission or otherwise publicly disseminated by the Company. References herein to the "Company" include Agree Realty Corporation, together with its wholly-owned subsidiaries and its majority owned partnership, Agree Limited Partnership (the "Operating Partnership"), unless the context otherwise requires. ITEM 1. BUSINESS General The Company is a self-administered, self-managed real estate investment trust (a"REIT") which develops, acquires, owns and operates properties which are primarily leased to major national and regional retail companies under net leases. As of December 31, 2001, the Company owned, either directly or through interests in joint ventures, a portfolio of 47 properties (the "Properties") located in 13 states and containing an aggregate of approximately 3.6 million square feet of gross leasable area. During 2001 the Company completed the development of two (2) free-standing Properties which added 29,610 square feet of gross leasable area to the Company's operating portfolio and cost approximately $7.3 million. The two (2) Properties are leased to Walgreen Co. ("Walgreen"). The Properties consist of 14 neighborhood and community shopping centers and 33 free-standing properties. The Company independently owns 26 of the free-standing properties and owns the other seven through joint ventures (the "Joint Venture Properties"). As of December 31, 2001, approximately 99% of gross leasable area in the portfolio was leased, and approximately 95% of the Company's base rental income was attributable to national and regional retailers. Such retailers include Kmart Corporation ("Kmart"), Borders, Inc. ("Borders") and Walgreen Co. which, as of December 31, 2001, collectively represented approximately 63% of the Company's base rental income. See "Major Tenants." The Company developed all 14 of the shopping centers and 29 of the 33 free-standing properties. -3- The Company was formed in December 1993 to continue and expand the retail property business founded in 1971 by its current Chairman of the Board of Directors and President, Richard Agree. Since 1971, the Company and its predecessors have specialized in building properties to suit for national and regional retailers who have signed long-term net leases prior to commencement of construction. The Company believes that this strategy provides it with a predictable source of income from primarily national and regional retail tenants in its existing properties and also provides opportunities for development of additional properties at attractive returns on investment, without the lease-up risks inherent in speculative development. The Company's headquarters are located at 31850 Northwestern Highway, Farmington Hills, MI 48334 and its telephone number is (248) 737-4190. Description of Business Objectives The Company's primary objectives are (1) to realize steady and predictable cash flows through the ownership of high quality properties leased primarily to national and regional retailers, and (2) to maximize stockholder returns through the development or acquisition of additional properties. The Company intends to achieve these objectives by implementing the growth, operating and financial strategies outlined below. - Developing or acquiring each property with the objective of holding it for long-term investment value. - Developing or acquiring properties in what the Company considers to be attractive long-term locations. Such locations typically have (1) convenient access to transportation arteries with traffic count that is higher than average for the local market; (2) concentrations of other retail properties; and (3) demographic characteristics which are attractive to the retail tenant which will lease the property. - Generally, purchasing land and beginning development of a property only upon the execution of a lease with a national or regional retailer on terms that provide a return on estimated cost which is attractive relative to the Company's cost of capital. - Directing all aspects of development, including construction, design, leasing and management. Property management and the majority of the leasing activities are handled directly by Company personnel. The Company believes that this approach to development and management enhances the ability of the Company to develop and maintain assets of high construction quality which are designed, leased and maintained to maximize long-term value and enables it to operate efficiently. The Company believes that the relationships established by its principals with national and regional retailers as well as the financing relationships its principals have developed with lenders provide it with opportunities not generally available to its competitors, thereby providing the Company with an advantage in achieving its objectives. -4- Major Tenants As of December 31, 2001, approximately 63% of the Company's gross leasable area, including the Joint Venture Properties, was leased to Kmart, Borders and Walgreen and approximately 63% of total annualized base rents was attributable to these tenants. At December 31, 2001, Kmart occupied approximately 38% of the Company's gross leasable area, including the Joint Venture Properties, and accounted for approximately 24% of the annualized base rent. At December 31, 2001, Borders occupied approximately 21% of the Company's gross leasable area, including the Joint Venture Properties, and accounted for approximately 22% of the annualized base rent. At December 31, 2001, Walgreen occupied approximately 4% of the company's gross leasable area, including the Joint Venture Properties, and accounted for approximately 17% of the annualized base rent. No other tenant accounted for more than 10% of gross leasable area or annualized base rent in 2001. The loss of any of these anchor tenants or the inability of any of them to pay rent would have an adverse effect on the Company's business. On January 22, 2002, Kmart Corporation and 37 of its U.S. subsidiaries filed voluntary petitions for reorganization under chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. In its filings in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Illinois, Kmart indicated that it will reorganize on a fast-track basis and has targeted emergence from chapter 11 in 2003. Kmart has outlined certain strategic, operational and financial initiatives that it intends to continue or implement during the reorganization process. One of its initiatives is to evaluate the performance of every store and terms of every lease in its portfolio, with the objective of closing unprofitable or underperforming stores. The Company has entered into sixteen (16) leases with Kmart Corporation. Thirteen (13) of the Kmart stores are anchors in the Company's Community Shopping Centers and three (3) Kmart stores are free-standing properties. The Kmart stores are located in five states as follows: Michigan (9), Wisconsin (3), Florida (2), Ohio (1) and Kentucky (1). All sixteen (16) of the Kmart stores are open and operating as Kmart discount stores. On March 8, 2002, Kmart announced that it intends to close 284 under-performing stores as part of its initial Chapter 11 financial objectives review. None of the Company's Kmart stores were included in this initial list of stores to be closed. However, there can be no assurance that Kmart won't announce additional store closings in the future which may include some of the Company's stores. Financing Strategy As of December 31, 2001, the Company's ratio of indebtedness to market capitalization was approximately 53%. The Company intends to maintain a ratio of total debt (including construction and acquisition financing) to market capitalization of 65% or less. The Company plans to begin construction of additional pre-leased developments and may acquire additional properties that will initially be financed by its Credit Facility and Line of Credit (each as hereinafter defined). Management intends to periodically refinance short-term construction and acquisition financing with long-term debt and / or equity in order to reduce its ratio of total debt to market capitalization to 50% or less. Nevertheless, the Company may operate with debt levels or ratios that -5- are in excess of 50% for extended periods of time prior to the completion of this long-term financing process. The Company may from time to time re-evaluate its borrowing policies in light of then current economic conditions, relative costs of debt and equity capital, market value of properties, growth and acquisition opportunities and other factors. There is no contractual limit on the Company's ratio of debt to total market capitalization and, accordingly, the Company may modify its borrowing policy and may increase or decrease its ratio of debt to market capitalization without stockholder approval. Tax Status The Company has operated and intends to operate in a manner to qualify as a REIT under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). In order to maintain qualification as a REIT, the Company must, among other things, distribute at least 90% of its real estate investment trust income and meet certain other asset and income tests. Additionally, the Company's charter limits ownership of the Company, directly or constructively, by any single person to 9.8% of the total number of outstanding shares, subject to certain exceptions. As a REIT, the Company is not subject to federal income tax with respect to that portion of its income that meets certain criteria and is distributed annually to the stockholders. Competition The Company faces competition in seeking properties for acquisition and tenants who will lease space in these properties from insurance companies, credit companies, pension funds, private individuals, investment companies and other REITs, many of which have greater financial and other resources than the Company. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully compete with such entities in its development, acquisition and leasing activities in the future. Potential Environmental Risks Investments in real property create a potential for environmental liability on the part of the owner or operator of such real property. If hazardous substances are discovered on or emanating from a property, the owner or operator of the property (including the Company) may be held strictly liable for all costs and liabilities relating to such hazardous substances. The Company has had a Phase I environmental study (which involves inspection without soil sampling or ground water analysis) conducted on each Property by independent environmental consultants. Furthermore, the Company has adopted a policy of conducting a Phase I environmental study on each property it acquires and if necessary conducting additional investigation as warranted. The Company conducted a Phase I environmental study on each of the two Properties it developed in 2001. The results of these Phase I studies required the Company to perform a Phase II environmental study (which involves soil sampling or ground water analysis). The results of the Phase II environmental study conducted on these two Properties indicated that no further action was required by the Company. In addition, the Company has no knowledge of any hazardous substances existing on any of its Properties in violation of any applicable laws; -6- however, no assurance can be given that such substances are not located on any of the Properties. The Company carries no insurance coverage for the types of environmental risks described above. The Company believes that it is in compliance, in all material respects, with all federal, state and local ordinances and regulations regarding hazardous or toxic substances. The Company has not been notified by any governmental authority of any noncompliance, liability or other claim in connection with any of the Properties. Employees As of March 15, 2002, the Company employed seven persons. Employee responsibilities include accounting, construction, leasing, property coordination and administrative functions for the Properties. The Company's employees are not covered by a collective bargaining agreement, and the Company considers its employee relations to be satisfactory. Financial Information About Industry Segments The Company is in the business of development, acquisition and management of shopping centers and free-standing properties. The Company considers its activities to consist of a single industry segment. See the Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto included in Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K for certain information required in Item 1. ITEM 2. PROPERTIES The Properties consist of 14 neighborhood and community shopping centers and 33 free-standing properties. As of December 31, 2001, approximately 99% of the Gross Leasable Area ("GLA") in the portfolio was leased, and approximately 95% of the Company's base rental income was attributable to, national and regional retailers. Such retailers include Kmart, Borders, and Walgreen which, at December 31, 2001, collectively represented approximately 63% of current base rental income. A substantial portion of the Company's income consists of rent received under net leases. Most of the leases provide for the payment of fixed base rentals monthly in advance and for the payment by tenants of a pro rata share of the real estate taxes, insurance, utilities and common area maintenance of the shopping center as well as payment to the Company of a percentage of such tenant's sales. The Company received percentage rents of $413,058 and $301,474 for 2001 and 2000, respectively. Included in those amounts were percentage rents from Kmart of $235,894 and $190,720 for 2001 and 2000, respectively. Leases with Borders do not contain percentage rent provisions. Leases with Walgreen do contain percentage rent provisions, however no percentage rent was received from Walgreen. A majority of the leases require the Company to make roof and structural repairs, as needed. The Company's management places a strong emphasis on sound construction and maintenance on its properties. -7- LOCATION OF PROPERTIES IN THE PORTFOLIO

(1) These properties are subject to long-term ground leases where a third party owns the underlying land and has leased the land to the Company to construct or operate three free-standing properties. The Company pays rent for the use of the land and generally is responsible for all costs and expenses associated with the building and improvements. At the end of the lease terms, as extended (Aventura, FL 2036, Lawrence, KS 2027 and Petoskey, MI 2049), the land together with all improvements revert to the land owner. The Company has an option to purchase the Lawrence property during the period October 1, 2006 to September 30, 2016 and to purchase the Petoskey property after August 7, 2019. (2) At the expiration of tenant's initial lease term, each tenant has an option, subject to certain requirements, to extend its lease for an additional period of time. JOINT VENTURE PROPERTIES During 1996, the Company developed or acquired seven free-standing Properties which are leased to Borders, including Borders' current corporate headquarters, its former headquarters building and Properties operated as Borders Books and Music. Each of these Properties is owned by a separate limited liability company or a limited partnership that is owned jointly by the Company and an affiliate of Borders (the "Joint Ventures"). The Company's economic interest in the Joint Ventures ranges from 8% to 20%. The financing for the development of the Joint Venture Properties was provided through a financing facility established by Borders and its affiliates (the "Borders Financing Facility"). The leases on the seven properties between Borders and each of the Joint Ventures has a term expiring October 16, 2002, unless the Borders Financing Facility is extended or earlier terminated. At any time during the term of the lease, Borders has the right to refinance the Properties or to purchase the Properties for various percentages of total project costs, provided that, prior to such refinancing or purchase, the Company may elect to provide alternative financing for the Properties or purchase the Properties and purchase the interest of the Borders' affiliate in the Joint Venture. In the event the Company elects to provide financing or to purchase the Properties, and is subsequently unable to obtain the requisite financing, or in the event that the Company defaults in its development obligations to the Joint -13- Venture, Borders may purchase the Properties. If the Company provides refinancing or purchases the Properties, the Company will be required to acquire the interest of the Borders' affiliate in the Joint Ventures, and Borders and the Joint Ventures will enter into a new lease providing for a term of 20 years, with four five-year extension options. Under certain circumstances, the Company may elect to allow Borders to place long-term financing on such Properties, in which case, the Company will maintain its current interest in the Joint Venture and become the sole equity member of the entity which owns such Property. In such a circumstance, the Company will own the Property subject to a first mortgage loan which could exceed 90% of the Property's estimated value, and lease payments received by the Company would be adjusted to reflect Borders' financing. The Company's investment in the seven Joint Venture Properties currently yields approximately $690,000 annualized base rent. Of this amount, the Company estimates that approximately $125,000 is variable based on short-term financing. Under certain circumstances relating to refinancing of such assets, the rents paid pursuant to such leases are subject to adjustment. The following table provides additional information on the Joint Venture Properties. JOINT VENTURE PROPERTIES

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS OVERVIEW The Company was established to continue to operate and expand the retail property business of its predecessors. The Company commenced its operations in April 1994. The assets of the Company are held by, and all operations are conducted through, Agree Limited Partnership (the "Operating Partnership"), of which the Company is the sole general partner and held an 86.77% interest as of December 31, 2001. The Company is operating so as to qualify as a real estate investment trust ("REIT") for federal income tax purposes. The Company has entered into sixteen (16) leases with Kmart Corporation. Thirteen (13) of the Kmart stores are anchors in the Company's Community Shopping Centers and three (3) Kmart stores are free-standing properties. Kmart Corporation and 37 of its U.S. subsidiaries have filed voluntary petitions for reorganization under chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. Kmart has outlined certain strategic, operational and financial initiatives that it intends to continue or implement during the reorganization process. One of its initiatives is to evaluate the performance of every store and terms of every lease in its portfolio, with the objective of closing unprofitable or underperforming stores. The Kmart stores in the Company's Portfolio provide 24% of the Company's Annual Base Rent as of December 31, 2001. Seven of the Kmart stores pay percentage rent in addition to their minimum rent. All Kmart stores in the Company's Portfolio are open and operating as Kmart discount stores. On March 8, 2002, Kmart announced that it intends to close 284 under-performing stores as part of its initial Chapter 11 financial objectives review. None of the Company's Kmart stores were included in this initial list of stores to be closed. However, there can be no assurance that Kmart won't announce additional store closings in the future which may include some of the Company's stores. The following should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements of Agree Realty Corporation, including the respective notes thereto, which are included elsewhere in this Form 10-K. COMPARISON OF YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2001 TO YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2000 Minimum rental income increased $858,000, or 4%, to $21,722,000 in 2001, compared to $20,864,000 in 2000. The increase was primarily the result of the development of three Properties in 2000 and two Properties in 2001. Percentage rental income increased $112,000, or 37%, to $413,000 in 2001, compared to $301,000 in 2000. The increase was the result of increased tenant sales. -19- Operating cost reimbursement, which represents additional rent required by substantially all of the Company's leases to cover the tenants' proportionate share of property operating expenses, decreased $19,000, or 1%, to $2,503,000 in 2001, compared to $2,522,000 in 2000. Operating cost reimbursement decreased due to the decrease in the reimbursable property operating expenses. Management fees and other income decreased $2,000, or 5%, to $41,000 in 2001, compared to $43,000 in 2000. The decrease was the result of a reduction in management fees. Real estate taxes increased $25,000, or 1%, to $1,752,000 in 2001 compared to $1,727,000 in 2000. The increase is the result of general assessment increases on the Properties. Property operating expenses increased $69,000, or 5%, to $1,433,000 in 2001 compared to $1,364,000 in 2000. The increase was the result of additional property expenses and major roof repairs of $166,000; decreased snow removal costs of ($164,000); an increase in shopping center maintenance costs of $54,000; an increase in utility costs of $4,000; and an increase in insurance costs of $9,000 in 2001 versus 2000. Land lease payments increased $54,000, or 8%, to $739,000 in 2001 compared to $685,000 in 2000 as a result of the Company leasing land for its Petoskey, Michigan development completed in 2000. General and administrative expenses increased $250,000, or 16%, to $1,807,000 in 2001 compared to $1,557,000 in 2000. The increase was primarily the result of an increase in compensation related expenses, general increases in professional fees and an potential $50,000 bad debt charge relating to amounts due from Kmart. General and administrative expenses as a percentage of rental income increased from 7.4% for 2000 to 8.2% for 2001. Depreciation and amortization increased $155,000, or 4%, to $3,845,000 in 2001 compared to $3,690,000 in 2000. The increase was the result of the development of five Properties in 2000 and 2001. Interest expense decreased $325,000, or 5%, to $6,720,000 in 2001, from $7,045,000 in 2000. The decrease in interest expense was the result of decreased interest rates on variable rate notes payable. Equity in net income of unconsolidated entities increased $172,000 to $694,000 in 2001 compared to $522,000 in 2000 as a result of depreciation expense no longer being allocated to the Company pursuant to the joint venture agreements in which the Company holds interests in properties ranging from 8% to 20%. The Company recognized a gain on the sale of an asset in the amount of $219,000 in 2001. There was no such gain in 2000. The Company's income before minority interest increased $1,110,000, or 14%, to $9,295,000 in 2001, from $8,186,000 in 2000 as a result of the foregoing factors. -20- COMPARISON OF YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2000 TO YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1999 Minimum rental income increased $1,645,000, or 9%, to $20,864,000 in 2000, compared to $19,219,000 in 1999. The increase was the result of the development of three Properties in 1999 and three Properties in 2000. Percentage rental income increased $84,000, or 39%, to $301,000 in 2000, compared to $217,000 in 1999. The increase was the result of increased tenant sales. Operating cost reimbursement increased $70,000, or 3%, to $2,522,000 in 2000, compared to $2,452,000 in 1999. Operating cost reimbursement increased due to the increase in real estate taxes and property operating expenses from 1999 to 2000, as explained below. Management fees and other income remained relatively constant at $43,000 in 2000 compared to $42,000 in 1999. Real estate taxes increased $26,000, or 2%, to $1,727,000 in 2000 compared to $1,701,000 in 1999. The increase is the result of general assessment increases on the Properties. Property operating expenses (shopping center maintenance, insurance and utilities) increased $95,000, or 7%, to $1,364,000 in 2000, compared $1,269,000 in 1999. The increase consisted of increased snow removal costs due to heavy snow falls in Northern Michigan and Wisconsin of $169,000; a decrease in shopping center maintenance costs of $90,000; an increase in utility costs of $14,000; and a increase in insurance costs of $2,000 in 2000 versus 1999. Land lease payments increased $143,000, or 26%, to $685,000 in 2000 compared to $542,000 in 1999 as a result of the Company leasing land for its Petoskey, Michigan development completed in 2000. General and administrative expenses increased $132,000, or 9%, to $1,557,000 in 2000 compared to $1,425,000 in 1999. The increase was primarily the result of an increase in compensation-related expenses related to the addition of an employee and wage increases. General and administrative expenses as a percentage of total rental income increased from 7.3% for 1999 to 7.4% for 2000. Depreciation and amortization increased $254,000, or 7%, to $3,690,000 in 2000 compared to $3,436,000 in 1999. The increase was the result of the development of six new Properties in 1999 and 2000. Interest expense increased $1,274,000, or 22%, to $7,045,000 in 2000, compared to $5,771,000 in 1999. The increase in interest expense was the result of the Company's additional borrowing to finance its development of properties and increased rates on variable rate notes payable. The Company received development fee income of $41,000 in 1999; there was no development fee income in 2000. Equity in net income of unconsolidated entities increased $494,000 to $522,000 in 2000 compared to $28,000 in 1999 as a result of depreciation expense no longer being allocated to the Company pursuant -21- to the Joint Venture agreements in which the Company holds interests in properties ranging from 8% to 20%. The Company's income before minority interest increased $329,000, or 4%, to $8,186,000 in 2000, from $7,857,000 in 1999 as a result of the foregoing factors. FUNDS FROM OPERATIONS Management considers Funds from Operations ("FFO") to be a supplemental measure of the Company's operating performance. FFO is defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, Inc. to mean net income computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), excluding gains (or losses) from debt restructuring and sales of property, plus real estate related depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated entities in which the REIT holds an interest. FFO does not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with GAAP and is not necessarily indicative of cash available to fund cash needs. FFO should not be considered as an alternative to net income as the primary indicator of the Company's operating performance or as an alternative to cash flow as a measure of liquidity. The following table illustrates the calculation of FFO for the years-ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999:

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES The Company's principal demands for liquidity are distributions to its stockholders, debt repayment, development of new properties and future property acquisitions. During the quarter ended December 31, 2001, the Company declared a quarterly dividend of $.46 per share. The dividend was paid on January 4, 2002 to holders of record on December 21, 2001. As of December 31, 2001, the Company had total mortgage indebtedness of $69,209,337 with a weighted average interest rate of 6.91%. Future scheduled annual maturities of mortgages payable for the years ending December 31 are as follows: 2002 - $1,993,539; 2003 - -22- $2,204,823; 2004 - $2,361,681; 2005 - $30,666,041; 2006 - $1,648,114. The mortgage debt is all fixed rate debt. In addition, the Operating Partnership has in place a $50 million line of credit facility (the "Credit Facility") which is guaranteed by the Company. The Credit Facility matures in August 2003 and can be extended by the Company for an additional three years. Advances under the Credit Facility bear interest within a range of one-month to six-month LIBOR plus 150 basis points to 213 basis points or the lender's prime rate, at the option of the Company, based on certain factors such as debt to property value and debt service coverage. The Credit Facility is used to fund property acquisitions and development activities and is secured by most of the Properties which are not otherwise encumbered and properties to be acquired or developed. As of December 31, 2001, $18,158,232 was outstanding under the Credit Facility bearing a weighted average interest rate of 3.23%. The Company also has in place a $5 million line of credit (the "Line of Credit"), which matures on April 30, 2002, and which the Company expects to renew for an additional 12-month period. The Line of Credit bears interest at the lender's prime rate less 50 basis points or 175 basis points in excess of the one-month LIBOR rate, at the option of the Company. The purpose of the Line of Credit is to provide working capital to the Company and fund land options and start-up costs associated with new projects. As of December 31, 2001, $1,800,000 was outstanding under the Line of Credit bearing a weighted average interest rate of 3.85%. The Company's wholly-owned subsidiaries have obtained construction financing of approximately $16,100,000 to fund the development of four retail properties. The notes require quarterly interest payments, based on a weighted average interest rate based on LIBOR, computed by the lender. The notes mature on October 16, 2002 and are secured by the underlying land and buildings. As of December 31, 2001, $14,896,962 was outstanding under these notes. The Company has received funding from an unaffiliated third party for the construction of certain of its Properties. Advances under this arrangement bear no interest. The advances are secured by the specific land and buildings being developed. As of December 31, 2001, $1,663,240 was outstanding under this arrangement. The Company has one development project under construction that will add an additional 14,490 square feet of GLA to the Company's portfolio. The project was completed during the first quarter of 2002. Additional Company funding required for this project is estimated to be $1,115,000 and will come from the Credit Facility. The Company intends to meet its short-term liquidity requirements, including capital expenditures related to the leasing and improvement of the Properties, through its cash flow provided by operations and the Line of Credit. Management believes that adequate cash flow will be available to fund the Company's operations and pay dividends in accordance with REIT requirements. The Company may obtain additional funds for future development or acquisitions through other borrowings or the issuance of additional shares of capital stock. The Company intends to incur additional debt in a manner consistent with its policy of maintaining a ratio of total debt (including construction and acquisition financing) to total market capitalization of 65% or less. The Company believes that these financing sources will enable the -23- Company to generate funds sufficient to meet both its short-term and long-term capital needs. The Company plans to begin construction of additional pre-leased developments and may acquire additional properties, which will initially be financed by the Credit Facility and Line of Credit. Management intends to periodically refinance short-term construction and acquisition financing with long-term debt and / or equity. INFLATION The Company's leases generally contain provisions designed to mitigate the adverse impact of inflation on net income. These provisions include clauses enabling the Company to pass through to tenants certain operating costs, including real estate taxes, common area maintenance, utilities and insurance, thereby reducing the Company's exposure to increases in costs and operating expenses resulting from inflation. Certain of the Company's leases contain clauses enabling the Company to receive percentage rents based on tenants' gross sales, which generally increase as prices rise, and, in certain cases, escalation clauses, which generally increase rental rates during the terms of the leases. In addition, expiring tenant leases permit the Company to seek increased rents upon re-lease at market rates if rents are below the then existing market rates. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS In October 2001, the Financial Accounting Stands Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets (SFAS 144). SFAS 144 establishes a single accounting model for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets, including discontinued operations. SFAS 144 superceded Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121, Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed of (SFAS 121), and APB 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. The provisions of SFAS 144 are effective in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001, with early adoption permitted, and in general are to be applied prospectively. The Company does not expect that the adoption of this standard will have a material impact on its results of operations and financial position. ITEM 7A QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK The Company is exposed to interest rate risk primarily through its borrowing activities. There is inherent roll over risk for borrowings as they mature and are renewed at current market rates. The extent of this risk is not quantifiable or predictable because of the variability of future interest rates and the Company's' future financing requirements. Mortgages payable - As of December 31, 2001 the Company had four mortgages outstanding. The first mortgage in the amount of $31,713,595 bears interest at 7.00%. The mortgage matures on November 15, 2005. The second mortgage in the amount of $7,082,202 bears interest at 7.00%. -24- The mortgage matures on April 1, 2013 and is subject to a rate review after the 7th year (April 1, 2006). The third mortgage in the amount of $11,413,540 bears interest at 6.63%. The mortgage matures on February 5, 2017. The fourth mortgage in the amount of $19,000,000 bears interest at 6.90%. The mortgage matures on January 1, 2020. Construction loans - As of December 31, 2001 the Company had Construction loans outstanding of $14,896,962. Under the terms of the construction loans the Company bears no interest rate risk. Notes payable - As of December 31, 2001 the Company had $19,958,232 outstanding on its Secured and Unsecured Lines-of-Credit all of which had a variable interest rate, based on LIBOR. The Company does not enter into financial instruments transactions for trading or other speculative purposes or to manage interest rate exposure. A 10% adverse change in interest rates on the portion of the Company's debt bearing interest at variable rates would result in an increase in interest expense of approximately $80,000.

See accompanying notes to consolidated financial statements. F-8 AGREE REALTY CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 1. THE COMPANY Agree Realty Corporation (the "Company") is a self-administered, self-managed real estate investment trust which develops, acquires, owns and operates properties which are primarily leased to national and regional retail companies under net leases. At December 31, 2001, the Company's properties are comprised of fourteen shopping centers and twenty-six single tenant retail facilities located in thirteen states. In addition, the Company owns joint venture interests ranging from 8% to 20% in seven free-standing retail properties. During the year ended December 31, 2001, approximately 95% of the Company's base rental revenues were received from national and regional tenants under long-term leases, including approximately 24% from Kmart Corporation, 22% from Borders, Inc. and 17% from Walgreen Co. 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION ACCOUNTING POLICIES The consolidated financial statements of Agree Realty Corporation include the accounts of the Company, its majority-owned partnership, Agree Limited Partnership (the "Operating Partnership"), and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. The Company controlled, as the sole general partner, 86.77% and 86.71% of the Operating Partnership as of December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. All material intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated. USE OF ESTIMATES The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of (1) assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements, and (2) revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. F - 9 AGREE REALTY CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FAIR VALUES OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS The carrying amounts of the Company's financial instruments, which consist of cash, cash equivalents, receivables, notes payable, accounts payable and long-term debt, approximate their fair values. VALUATION OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS Long-lived assets such as real estate investments are evaluated for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable through the estimated undiscounted future cash flows from the use of these assets. When any such impairment exists, the related assets will be written down to fair value. No impairment loss recognition has been required through December 31, 2001. REAL ESTATE INVESTMENTS Real estate assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. All costs related to planning, development and construction of buildings prior to the date they become operational, including interest and real estate taxes during the construction period, are capitalized for financial reporting purposes and recorded as "Property under development" until construction has been completed. As of December 31, 2001, the cost to complete the properties under development is approximately $1,115,000. Subsequent to completion of construction, expenditures for property maintenance are charged to operations as incurred, while significant renovations are capitalized. Depreciation of the buildings is recorded on the straight-line method using an estimated useful life of forty years. CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS Cash and cash equivalents include cash and money market accounts. F - 10 AGREE REALTY CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE - TENANTS Accounts receivable from tenants reflect primarily reimbursement of specified common area expenses. INVESTMENTS IN UNCONSOLIDATED ENTITIES The Company uses the equity method of accounting for investments in non-majority owned entities where the Company has the ability to exercise significant influence over operating and financial policies. The Company's initial investment is recorded at cost, and the carrying amount of the investment is (a) increased by the Company's share of the investees' earnings (as defined in the limited liability company agreements), and (b) reduced by distributions paid from the investees to the Company. UNAMORTIZED DEFERRED EXPENSES Deferred expenses are stated net of total accumulated amortization. The nature and treatment of these capitalized costs are as follows: (1) financing costs, consisting of expenditures incurred to obtain long-term financing, are being amortized using the interest method over the term of the related loan, and (2) leasing costs, which are amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the related lease. OTHER ASSETS The Company records prepaid expenses, deposits and miscellaneous receivables as "other assets" in the accompanying balance sheets. ACCOUNTS PAYABLE - CAPITAL EXPENDITURES Included in accounts payable are amounts related to the construction of buildings. Due to the nature of these expenditures, they are reflected in the statements of cash flows as a financing activity. F - 11 AGREE REALTY CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS MINORITY INTEREST This amount represents the limited partners' interest ("OP Units") of 13.23% and 13.29% (convertible into 673,547 shares) in the Operating Partnership as of December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. REVENUE RECOGNITION Minimum rental income attributable to leases is recorded when due from tenants. Certain leases provide for additional percentage rents based on tenants' sales volume. These percentage rents are recognized as received by the Company. In addition, leases for certain tenants contain rent escalations and/or free rent during the first several months of the lease term; however, such amounts are not material. The Company acts as the construction developer on certain properties. Related development fee income is recognized upon completion of construction. OPERATING COST REIMBURSEMENT Substantially all of the Company's leases contain provisions requiring tenants to pay as additional rent a proportionate share of operating expenses such as real estate taxes, repairs and maintenance, insurance, etc. The related revenue from tenant billings is recognized in the same period the expense is recorded. INCOME TAXES The Company elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), and began operating as such on April 22, 1994. As a result, the Company is not subject to federal income taxes to the extent that it distributes annually at least 90% of its taxable income to its shareholders and satisfies certain other requirements defined in the Code. Accordingly, no provision was made for federal income taxes in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. F - 12 AGREE REALTY CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The Company declared dividends of $1.84 per share during the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000, and 1999; the dividends have been reflected for federal income tax purposes as follows:
December 31, 2001 2000 1999 ============================================================================ Ordinary income $ 1.76 $ 1.52 $ 1.44 Return of capital .08 .32 .40 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- TOTAL $ 1.84 $ 1.84 $ 1.84 ============================================================================
The aggregate federal income tax basis of Real Estate Investments is approximately $18.5 million less than the financial statement basis. EARNINGS PER SHARE Earnings per share reflected in the consolidated statements of operations are presented for all periods in accordance with SFAS No. 128, "Earnings per Share". In connection therewith, any conversion of OP Units to common stock would have no effect on the earnings per share calculation since the allocation of earnings to an OP Unit is equivalent to earnings allocated to a share of common stock. The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share:
December 31, 2001 2000 1999 ======================================================================================= NUMERATOR Net income $ 8,065,653 $ 7,097,887 $ 6,806,405 Income allocated to minority interests 1,229,819 1,087,921 1,050,496 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NUMERATOR FOR BASIC AND DILUTED EARNINGS PER SHARE - INCOME AVAILABLE TO SHAREHOLDERS AFTER ASSUMED CONVERSIONS $ 9,295,472 $ 8,185,808 $ 7,856,901 =======================================================================================

Options to purchase shares of common stock were outstanding (see Note 9) but were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because the options exercise price was greater than the average market price of the common shares and, therefore, any additional shares would be anti-dilutive. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS In October 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets (SFAS 144). SFAS 144 establishes a single accounting model for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets, including discontinued operations. SFAS 144 superseded Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121, Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed of (SFAS 121), and APB 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. The provisions of SFAS 144 are effective in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001, with early adoption permitted, and in general are to be applied prospectively. The Company does not expect that the adoption of this standard will have a material impact on its results of operations and financial position.

MORTGAGES PAYABLE Mortgages payable consisted of the following: December 31, 2001 2000 ================================================================================== Note payable in monthly installments of $249,750 including interest at 7.0% per annum, with the remaining balance due November 2005; collateralized by related real estate and tenants' leases $ 31,713,595 $ 32,462,433 Note payable in monthly installments of $153,838 including interest at 6.90% per annum, with the remaining balance due January 2020; collateralized by related real estate and tenants' leases 19,000,000 - Note payable in monthly installments of $99,598 including interest at 6.63% per annum, with the remaining balance due February 2017; collateralized by related real estate and tenants' leases 11,413,540 11,836,651 Note payable in monthly installments of $61,948 including interest at 7.0% per annum (with rate to be modified to prevailing interest rate in December 2005), collateralized by related real estate and tenants' leases, final balloon installment scheduled to be due April 2013 7,082,202 7,320,686 Other, repaid in 2001 - 500,000 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- TOTAL $ 69,209,337 $ 52,119,770 ==================================================================================
F - 15 AGREE REALTY CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Future scheduled annual maturities of mortgages payable for years ending December 31 are as follows: 2002 - $1,993,539; 2003 - $2,204,823; 2004 - $2,361,681; 2005 - $30,666,041; 2006 - $1,648,114; and $30,335,139 thereafter. 4. CONSTRUCTION LOANS The Company's wholly-owned subsidiaries have obtained construction financing totalling approximately $16,100,000, which is available to fund the development of four retail properties. Quarterly interest payments are made based on LIBOR. The notes mature on October 16, 2002 and are secured by the related land and buildings. The Company owed $14,896,962 for these loans at December 31, 2001 and 2000. The Company has also received funding from an unaffiliated third party for certain of its single tenant retail properties. Borrowings under this arrangement bear no interest. The advances are secured by the specific land and buildings being developed. The Company owed $1,663,240 and $1,717,040 for these advances as of December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. 5. NOTES PAYABLE The Operating Partnership has in place a $50 million line-of-credit agreement which is guaranteed by the Company. The agreement expires in August 2003 and can be extended, solely at the option of the Operating Partnership, for an additional three years. Advances under the Credit Facility bear interest within a range of one-month to six-month LIBOR plus 150 basis points to 213 basis points or the bank's prime rate, at the option of the Company, based on certain factors such as debt to property value and debt service coverage. The Credit Facility is used to fund property acquisitions and development activities and is secured by most of the Company's Properties which are not otherwise encumbered and properties to be acquired or developed. At December 31, 2001 and 2000, $18,158,232 and $33,158,232, respectively, was outstanding under this facility. In addition, the Company maintains a $5,000,000 line-of-credit agreement with a bank. Monthly interest payments are required, either at the bank's prime rate less 50 basis points, or 175 basis points in excess of the one-month LIBOR rate, at the option of the Company. At December 31, 2001 and 2000, $1,800,000 and $2,200,000, respectively, was outstanding under this agreement. F - 16 AGREE REALTY CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 6. DIVIDENDS AND On December 10, 2001 the Company declared a DISTRIBUTIONS PAYABLE dividend of $.46 per share for the quarter ended December 31, 2001; approximately 4% percent of the dividend represented a return of capital. The holders of OP Units were entitled to an equal distribution per OP Unit held as of December 31, 2001. The dividends and distributions payable are recorded as liabilities in the Company's balance sheet at December 31, 2001. The dividend has been reflected as a reduction of stockholders' equity and the distribution has been reflected as a reduction of the limited partners' minority interest. These amounts were paid on January 4, 2002. 7. MINORITY INTEREST The following summarizes the changes in minority interest since January 1, 1999:
MINORITY INTEREST AT JANUARY 1, 1999 $ 6,047,843 Minority interests' share of income for the year 1,050,496 Distributions for the year (1,239,327) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- MINORITY INTEREST AT DECEMBER 31, 1999 5,859,012 Minority interests' share of income for the year 1,087,921 Distributions for the year (1,239,325) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- MINORITY INTEREST AT DECEMBER 31, 2000 5,707,608 Minority interests' share of income for the year 1,229,819 Distributions for the year (1,239,326) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- MINORITY INTEREST AT DECEMBER 31, 2001 $ 5,698,101 -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
8. RELATED PARTY The Company currently manages certain TRANSACTIONS additional properties which are owned by certain officers and directors of the Company, but are not included in the consolidated financial statements. Income related to these activities is reflected as "Management fees and other" in the accompanying consolidated statements of income. 9. STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN The Company has established a stock incentive plan (the "Plan") under which options were granted in April 1994. The options, which have an exercise price equal to the initial public offering price ($19.50/share), can be exercised in increments of 25% on each anniversary of the date of the grant, and expire upon employment termination. All 23,275 options outstanding were exercisable at December 31, 2001 and 2000. No options were exercised during either 2001 or 2000. F - 17 AGREE REALTY CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The Company has adopted the disclosure-only provisions of SFAS No. 123 "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation." However, since no compensation cost would have been recognized pursuant to SFAS No. 123 under the Plan in 2001, 2000 or 1999, there is no effect on the Company's net income for these years. 10. UNEARNED COMPENSATION - As part of the Company's stock incentive plan, RESTRICTED STOCK restricted common shares are granted to certain employees. The restricted shares vest in increments of 20% per year for five years. Plan participants are entitled to receive the quarterly dividends on their respective restricted shares. The following table summarizes the restricted shares for the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999:
2001 2000 1999 ===================================================================================== Restricted shares outstanding January 1 115,134 85,332 66,778 Restricted shares granted during the 27,291 33,802 18,554 year Restricted shares redeemed during the year (5,091) (4,000) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Restricted shares outstanding December 31 137,334 115,134 85,332 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- COMPENSATION EXPENSE RECORDED RELATED TO RESTRICTED COMMON SHARES $ 266,252 $ 236,126 $ 193,972 ======================================================================================
11. PROFIT-SHARING PLAN The Company has a discretionary profit-sharing plan whereby it contributes to the plan such amounts as the Board of Directors of the Company determines. The participants in the plan cannot make any contributions to the plan. Contributions to the plan are allocated to the employees based on their percentage of compensation to the total compensation of all employees for the plan year. Participants in the plan become fully vested after six years of service. No contributions were made to the plan in 2001, 2000 or 1999. 12. RENTAL INCOME The Company leases premises in its properties to tenants pursuant to lease agreements which provide for terms ranging generally from 5 to 25 years. The majority of leases provide for additional rents based on tenants' sales volume. F - 18 AGREE REALTY CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS As of December 31, 2001, the future minimum revenues for the next five years from rental property under the terms of all noncancellable tenant leases, assuming no new or renegotiated leases are executed for such premises, are as follows (in thousands): 2002 $ 21,941 2003 21,095 2004 20,285 2005 19,630 2006 18,296 Thereafter 156,465 ---------------------------------------------------------- TOTAL $ 257,712 ----------------------------------------------------------
Of these future minimum rentals, approximately 24% of the total is attributable to Kmart Corporation, approximately 28% is attributable to Borders, Inc. and approximately 26% is attributable to Walgreen Company. Kmart's principal business is general merchandise retailing through a chain of discount department stores, Borders is a major operator of book superstores in the United States and Walgreen operates in the national chain drugstore industry. The loss of any of these anchor tenants or the inability of any of them to pay rent could have an adverse effect on the Company's business. On January 22, 2002 Kmart Corporation and 37 of its U.S. subsidiaries field voluntary petitions for reorganization under chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. In its filings in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Illinois, Kmart indicated that it will reorganize on a fast-track basis and has targeted emergence from chapter 11 in 2003. Kmart has outlined certain strategic, operational and financial initiatives that it intends to continue or implement during the reorganization process. One of its initiatives is to evaluate the performance of every store and terms of every lease in its portfolio, with the objective of closing unprofitable or under performing stores. The Company has entered into sixteen (16) leases with Kmart Corporation. Thirteen (13) of the Kmart stores are anchors in the Company's Community Shopping Centers and three (3) Kmart stores are free-standing properties.
