The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Liberty Property Trust (the “Trust”) and its subsidiaries, including Liberty Property Limited Partnership (the “Operating Partnership”) (the Trust, Operating Partnership and their respective subsidiaries referred to collectively as the “Company”), have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“US GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by US GAAP for complete financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K of the Trust and the Operating Partnership for the year ended December 31, 2002. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the financial statements for these interim periods have been included. The results of interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be obtained for a full fiscal year. Certain amounts from prior periods have been reclassified to conform to current period presentation.

Stock Based Compensation

At June 30, 2003, the Company had a share-based employee compensation plan. Prior to 2003, the Company accounted for the plan under the recognition and measurement provisions of APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related Interpretations. No share-based employee compensation cost is reflected in 2002 net income, as all options granted under this plan had an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common share on the date of grant. Effective January 1, 2003, the Company adopted the fair value recognition provisions of the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“the FASB”) Statement of Financial Standards (“SFAS”) No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, prospectively to all employee awards granted, modified, or settled after January 1, 2003. Option awards under the Company’s plan vest over three years. Therefore, the cost related to share-based employee compensation included in the determination of net income for 2002 and 2003 is less than that which would have been recognized if the fair value based method had been applied to all awards since the original effective date of SFAS No. 123. The following table illustrates the effect on net income and earnings per share if the fair value based method had been applied to all outstanding and unvested awards in each period.

Note 2: Organization

The Trust is a self-administered and self-managed Maryland real estate investment trust (a “REIT”). Substantially all of the Trust’s assets are owned directly or indirectly, and substantially all of the Trust’s operations are conducted directly or indirectly, by the Operating Partnership. The Trust is the sole general partner and also a limited partner of the Operating Partnership, owning 95.5% of the common equity of the Operating Partnership at June 30, 2003. The Company provides leasing, property management, development, acquisition, and other tenant-related services for a portfolio of industrial and office properties which are located principally within the Southeastern, Mid-Atlantic and Midwestern United States.

Note 3: Segment Information

The Company reviews the performance of the portfolio on a geographical basis. The following regions are considered the Company’s reportable segments: Southeastern Pennsylvania; New Jersey; Lehigh Valley, Pennsylvania; Virginia; the Carolinas; Jacksonville, Florida; Minneapolis, Minnesota; Detroit, Michigan; and all others combined (including Maryland; Tampa, Florida; South Florida; and the United Kingdom). The Company’s reportable segments are distinct business units which are each managed separately in order to concentrate market knowledge within a geographical area. Within these reportable segments, the Company derives its revenues from its two product types: industrial properties and office properties.

The Company evaluates the performance of the reportable segments based on property level operating income, which is calculated as rental revenue and operating expense reimbursement less rental property expenses and real estate taxes. The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as those for the Company on a consolidated basis. The operating information by segment is as follows (in thousands):

Note 5: Credit Facility

During the six months ended June 30, 2003, the Company replaced its unsecured revolving credit facility with a new facility which matures in January 2006. Capacity under the facility was reduced from $450 million to $350 million. Based on the Company’s present ratings, borrowings under the facility bear interest at LIBOR plus 70 basis points, reduced from LIBOR plus 105 basis points for the facility prior to its renewal.

Note 6: Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In January 2003, the FASB issued Financial Interpretation No. 46 (“FIN No. 46”), “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities.” The consolidation requirements of FIN No. 46 apply immediately to variable interest entities created after January 31, 2003 and applies to existing variable interest entities in the first fiscal year or interim period beginning after June 15, 2003. FIN No. 46 requires that a variable interest entity be consolidated by a company if that company is subject to a majority of the risk of loss from the variable interest entity’s activities or is entitled to receive a majority of the entity’s residual returns or both. Beginning July 1, 2003, Rouse Kent Limited (“RKL”) will be consolidated into the Company’s financial statements as a result of the adoption of the provisions of FIN No. 46. RKL is a full service real estate development company which, together with its affiliates, owns six properties comprising 210,000 leasable square feet. The Company does not expect its financial position or results of operations to be materially affected by this consolidation.

Note 2: Organization

Liberty Property Trust (the “Trust”), the general partner of Liberty Property Limited Partnership, is a self-administered and self-managed Maryland real estate investment trust (a “REIT”). Substantially all of the Trust’s assets are owned directly or indirectly, and substantially all of the Trust’s operations are conducted directly or indirectly, by the Operating Partnership (the Trust, Operating Partnership and their respective subsidiaries, referred to collectively as, the “Company”). The Trust is the sole general partner and also a limited partner of the Operating Partnership, owning 95.5% of the common equity of the Operating Partnership at June 30, 2003. The Company provides leasing, property management, development, acquisition, and other tenant-related services for a portfolio of industrial and office properties which are located principally within the Southeastern, Mid-Atlantic and Midwestern United States.

Note 3: Segment Information

The Company reviews the performance of the portfolio on a geographical basis. The following regions are considered the Company’s reportable segments: Southeastern Pennsylvania; New Jersey; Lehigh Valley, Pennsylvania; Virginia; the Carolinas; Jacksonville, Florida; Minneapolis, Minnesota; Detroit, Michigan; and all others combined (including Maryland; Tampa, Florida; South Florida; and the United Kingdom). The Company’s reportable segments are distinct business units which are each managed separately in order to concentrate market knowledge within a geographical area. Within these reportable segments, the Company derives its revenues from its two product types: industrial properties and office properties.

The Company evaluates the performance of the reportable segments based on property level operating income, which is calculated as rental revenue and operating expense reimbursement less rental property expenses and real estate taxes. The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as those for the Company on a consolidated basis. The operating information by segment is as follows (in thousands):

Note 4: SFAS No. 144, “Accounting For The Impairment Or Disposal Of Long-Lived Assets”

In accordance with SFAS No. 144 which the Company adopted on January 1, 2002, net income and gain/(loss) on the disposition of real estate for properties sold subsequent to December 31, 2001 are reflected in the consolidated statements of operations as discontinued operations. The proceeds from the disposition of properties for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003 were $34.8 million and $38.5 million as compared to $11.0 million and $23.8 million for the same period in 2002. Below is a summary of the results of operations of the properties disposed of through the respective disposition dates (in thousands):

	Three Months Ended						Six Months Ended
	June 30, 2003			June 30, 2002			June 30, 2003			June 30, 2002

Note 5: Credit Facility

During the six months ended June 30, 2003, the Company replaced its unsecured revolving credit facility with a new facility which matures in January 2006. Capacity under the facility was reduced from $450 million to $350 million. Based on the Company’s present ratings, borrowings under the facility bear interest at LIBOR plus 70 basis points, reduced from LIBOR plus 105 basis points for the facility prior to its renewal.

Note 6: Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In January 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Financial Interpretation No. 46 (“FIN No. 46”), “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities.” The consolidation requirements of FIN No. 46 apply immediately to variable interest entities created after January 31, 2003 and applies to existing variable interest entities in the first fiscal year or interim period beginning after June 15, 2003. FIN No. 46 requires that a variable interest entity be consolidated by a company if that company is subject to a majority of the risk of loss from the variable interest entity’s activities or is entitled to receive a majority of the entity’s residual returns or both. Beginning July 1, 2003, Rouse Kent Limited (“RKL”) will be consolidated into the Company’s financial statements as a result of the adoption of the provisions of FIN No. 46. RKL is a full service real estate development company which, together with its affiliates, owns six properties comprising 210,000 leaseable square feet. The Company does not expect its financial position or results of operations to be materially affected by this consolidation.

As of June 30, 2003, the Company’s portfolio consisted of 653 industrial and office properties (the “Properties in Operation”) totaling approximately 51.6 million square feet. In addition, the Company had seven properties under development (the “Properties under Development” and, together with the Properties in Operation, the “Properties”) and owned 879 acres of land, substantially all of which is zoned for commercial use.

The Company focuses on creating value for shareholders and increasing profitability and cash flow. With respect to its Properties in Operation, the Company endeavors to maintain high occupancy levels while increasing rental rates. The Company pursues development opportunities that it believes will create value and yield high returns. The Company also acquires properties that it believes will create long-term value, and disposes of Properties that no longer fit within the Company’s strategic objectives or in situations where it can optimize cash proceeds. The Company’s operating results depend primarily upon income from rental operations and are substantially influenced by rental demand for the Properties in Operation.

In 2002 and for the six months ended June 30, 2003, the continued general slowdown in the economy negatively affected occupancy rates. Additionally, the imbalance between supply of and demand for rental properties resulted in a decline in market rental rates. Although the Company has realized increases on some renewal and replacement leases, the negative occupancy and rental rate trend has been continuing for several quarters and as a result, property level operating income from the “Same Store” group of properties, exclusive of termination fees, has decreased. Additionally, tenant improvement and lease transaction costs on renewal and replacement leases have increased.

The continued economic slowdown has also limited the Company’s ability to achieve growth in operating income from its development activity. The decline in demand for real estate has reduced the amount of development the Company is undertaking. The size of the development pipeline has continued to decrease as the Company has curtailed its speculative development activity and build-to-suit activity has declined.

As noted above, the Company also seeks to acquire and dispose of Properties in appropriate circumstances. The Company anticipates that it will continue to pursue select acquisition and disposition opportunities during 2003.

The composition of the Company’s Properties in Operation as of June 30, 2003 and 2002 is as follows (in thousands, except dollars and percentages):

	Net Rent								Percent of
	Per Square Foot				Total Square Feet				Total Square Feet						Percent Occupied
	June 30,				June 30,				June 30,						June 30,

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

When used throughout this report, the words “believes,” “anticipates,” and “expects” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Such statements indicate that assumptions have been used that are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties which could cause actual financial results or management plans and objectives to differ materially from those projected or expressed herein, including: the effect of national and regional economic conditions; rental demand; the Company’s ability to identify and secure additional properties and sites that meet its criteria for acquisition or development; the availability and cost of capital; and the effect of prevailing market interest rates; and other risks described from time to time in the Company’s filings with the Securities and

19

Exchange Commission. Given these uncertainties, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such statements.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Refer to the Company’s 2002 Annual Report on Form 10-K for a discussion of critical accounting policies which include capitalized costs, allowances for doubtful accounts and impairment of real estate. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, there were no material changes to these policies.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion is based on the consolidated financial statements of the Company. It compares the results of operations of the Company for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003 with the results of operations of the Company for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002. As a result of the varying level of development, acquisition and disposition activities by the Company in 2003 and 2002, the overall operating results of the Company during such periods are not directly comparable. However, certain data, including the “Same Store” comparison, do lend themselves to direct comparison.

This information should be read in conjunction with the accompanying consolidated financial statements and notes included elsewhere in this report.

Comparison of the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2003 to the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2002.

Total revenue (principally rental revenue and operating expense reimbursement) increased to $152.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003 from $147.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2002 and increased to $311.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003 from $294.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002. These increases are primarily due to an increase in lease termination fees and the net increased investment in properties developed or acquired, net of dispositions, during the years 2002 and 2003. The average gross investment in operating real estate owned for the three months ended June 30, 2003 was $3,680.9 million as compared to $3,420.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2002 and for the six months ended June 30, 2003 was $3,638.4 million as compared to $3,394.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002.

The operating expense recovery percentage (the ratio of operating expense reimbursement to rental property expenses and real estate taxes) increased to 93.2% for the three months ended June 30, 2003 from 93.1% for the three months ended June 30, 2002, and decreased to 93.2% for the six months ended June 30, 2003 from 94.5% for the six months ended June 30, 2002. While there was a modest increase in the recovery percentage for the three month period, the overall trend as seen from the six month percentage is a reduced recovery percentage. This reduction is consistent with a reduction in occupancy.

Rental property and real estate tax expenses increased to $43.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003 from $42.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2002 and increased to $90.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003 from $83.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002. These increases are due to the increase in the investment in Properties owned during the respective periods and because of the increased snow removal and utility costs relating to 2003’s severe winter.

Property level operating income, exclusive of lease termination fees, for the “Same Store” properties (properties owned since January 1, 2002) decreased by $1.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2002, on a straight line basis (which recognizes rental revenue evenly over the life of the lease), and decreased by $1.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2002, on a cash basis. These decreases of 1.4%, are primarily due to decreases in occupancy.

Property level operating income, exclusive of lease termination fees, for the Same Store properties decreased by $6.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2002, on a straight line basis, and decreased by $5.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2002, on a cash basis. These decreases of 3.2% and 3.0%, respectively, are primarily due to

20

decreases in occupancy. At June 30, 2003, the occupancy of the Same Store portfolio was 92.2% as compared to 93.1% at June 30, 2002.

Set forth below is a schedule comparing the property level operating income, on a straight line basis and on a cash basis, for the Same Store properties for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 (in thousands):

		Straight Line Basis						Cash Basis (1)
		Three Months Ended						Three Months Ended
		June 30, 2003			June 30, 2002			June 30, 2003			June 30, 2002

Operating expenses:
	Rental property expense		57,022			52,353			57,022			52,353

Unrecovered operating expenses			5,574			3,398			5,574			3,398
Property level operating income		$	188,742		$	194,931		$	184,758		$	190,541

(1)  Property level operating income on a cash basis is a non-GAAP measurement. Management generally considers property level operating income on a cash basis a useful financial performance measure of the operating performance of the Same Store portfolio.

General and administrative expenses increased to $8.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003 from $5.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2002 and increased to $15.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003 from $11.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002. These increases are primarily due to the accelerated vesting of restricted stock and options related to the death of former Chairman Willard G. Rouse III totaling approximately $1.9 million and due to costs related to the Company’s enterprise resource planning initiative totaling approximately $406,000.

Depreciation and amortization expenses increased to $31.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003 from $27.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2002 and increased to $59.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003 from $53.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002. These increases are due to the increase in the investment in Properties owned during the respective periods.

Interest expense increased to $31.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003 from $28.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2002 and increased to $61.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003 from $56.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002. These increases are due to the increases in the average debt outstanding for the respective periods, which were $1,868.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003 as compared to $1,772.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2002 and $1,868.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003 as compared to $1,765.7 million for the same period in 2002. These increases were partially offset by decreases in the weighted average interest rates for the periods, which were 6.95% for the three months ended June 30, 2003 compared to 7.12% for the three months ended June 30, 2002 and 6.98% for the six months

21

ended June 30, 2003 compared to 7.17% for the same period in 2002. Interest expense also increased because, as noted below, less interest was capitalized during the three and six months ended June 30, 2003 compared to the same period in 2002 due to the decrease in development in progress.

Costs directly related to the development of rental properties and land being readied for development are capitalized. Capitalized development costs include interest, salaries, property taxes, insurance and other directly identifiable costs during the period of development. Capitalized interest for the three months ended June 30, 2003 decreased to $2.4 million from $4.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2002 and decreased to $5.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003 from $9.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002. Included in capitalized interest costs are the interest costs relating to the Company’s $60.7 million investment (as of June 30, 2003) in its proposed downtown Philadelphia office tower. Capitalized salaries and benefits historically represent approximately 1% of the cost of developed properties brought into service. These amounts are not included in general and administrative expenses as discussed above.

Implementation of SFAS No. 144 “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets” requires that the operating results for real estate sold after December 31, 2001 should be reflected as discontinued operations. Sales occurring before December 31, 2001, as well as sales of land and development properties, continue to be reflected as a component of income from continuing operations.

There were no properties sold during the three months ended June 30, 2003. For the six months ended June 30, 2003, the Company realized a net gain on property dispositions of $598,000, due to the sale of two parcels of land and additional proceeds from a 2002 property disposition. For the three months ended June 30, 2002, the Company realized a gain on property dispositions of $1.8 million due to the sale of two parcels of land and the sale of a property. For the six months ended June 30, 2002, the Company realized a gain on property dispositions of $1.2 million due to the sale of five parcels of land and the sale of a property. The property sold was developed for sale through the Company’s merchant building program.

In accordance with SFAS No. 144, net income and gain/(loss) on dispositions of real estate for properties sold subsequent to December 31, 2001 are reflected in the consolidated statements of operations as discontinued operations for all periods presented. The increase in income from discontinued operations of $7.2 million and $5.6 million, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003, as compared to the same period in 2002, is primarily due to the larger gain on the disposition of the properties sold in the three and six months ended June 30, 2003 as compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2002.

As a result of the foregoing, the Company’s net income increased to $45.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003 from $41.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2002 and net income increased to $86.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003 from $81.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

As of June 30, 2003, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $26.3 million, including $4.3 million in cash held in escrow for the payment of real estate taxes.

Net cash flow provided by operating activities decreased to $144.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003 from $145.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002. This $1.6 million decrease is primarily due to fluctuations in operating assets and liabilities during the respective periods. Net cash flow provided by operations is the primary source of liquidity to fund distributions to shareholders and for the recurring capital expenditures and leasing transaction costs for the Company’s Properties in Operation.

Net cash used in investing activities decreased to $37.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003 from $86.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002. This decrease primarily resulted from a decrease in investment in development in progress and land held for development in 2003, which is consistent with the diminished opportunity to develop property due to the general slowdown in the economy. These decreases are partially offset by the reduced level of disposition activity during 2003.

Net cash used in financing activities increased to $91.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003 as compared to $48.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002. This $43.5 million increase was primarily due to a reduced

22

level of net borrowings under mortgage, unsecured notes obligations and the Company’s credit facility. Net cash provided by or used in financing activities includes proceeds from the issuance of equity and debt net of debt repayments and shareholder distributions. Cash provided by financing activities is a source of capital utilized by the Company to fund investment activities and the decrease in such funding activities for 2003 is consistent with the decrease in the level of the Company’s investment activities as described above.

The Company funds its development and acquisitions with long-term capital sources including proceeds from the disposition of Properties. For the year ended December 31, 2002, these activities were funded through a $450 million unsecured credit facility (the “$450 million Credit Facility”), which was replaced in January 2003, with the $350 million Credit Facility. The interest rate on borrowings under the $350 million Credit Facility fluctuates based upon ratings from Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. (“Moody’s”), Standard and Poor’s Ratings Group (“S&P”) and Fitch, Inc. (“Fitch”). The current ratings for the Company’s senior unsecured debt are Baa2, BBB and BBB from Moody’s, S&P and Fitch, respectively. At these ratings, the interest rate for borrowings under the $350 million Credit Facility is 70 basis points over LIBOR. The $350 million Credit Facility expires in January 2006.

The Company uses debt financing to lower its overall cost of capital in an attempt to increase the return to shareholders. The Company staggers its debt maturities and maintains debt levels it considers to be prudent. In determining its debt levels, the Company considers various financial measures including the debt to gross assets ratio and the earnings to fixed charge coverage ratio. As of June 30, 2003 the Company’s debt to gross assets ratio was 44.0%, and the earnings to fixed charge coverage ratio was 2.8x. Debt to gross assets equals total long-term debt and borrowings under the $350 million Credit Facility divided by total assets plus accumulated depreciation. Earnings to fixed charges equals income before property dispositions and minority interest, including operating activity from discontinued operations, plus interest expense and depreciation and amortization divided by interest expense, including capitalized interest, plus distributions on preferred shares and units.

As of June 30, 2003, $310.7 million in mortgage loans and $1,405.0 million in unsecured notes were outstanding with a weighted average interest rate of 7.4%. The interest rates on $1,691.0 million of mortgage loans and unsecured notes are fixed and range up to 8.8%. Interest rates on $24.7 million of mortgage loans float with the base rate of the respective lending bank or a municipal bond index. The weighted average remaining term for the mortgage loans and unsecured notes is 6.2 years.

The scheduled maturities and principal amortization of the Company’s mortgage loans, unsecured notes and borrowings under the $350 million Credit Facility and the related weighted average interest rates as of June 30, 2003 are as follows (in thousands, except percentages):

	Mortgages

The Company anticipates that it will refinance or retire these maturities through its available sources of capital.

General

The Company has continued to focus on the performance of the Same Store portfolio. In addition, the Company has continued to pursue development and acquisition opportunities and the strategic disposition of certain properties. The Company attempts to outperform in its markets by maintaining higher than market occupancy levels and obtaining higher than market rental rates.

The Company believes that its existing sources of capital will provide sufficient funds to finance its continued development and acquisition activities. The scheduled deliveries of the 732,000 square feet of Properties under Development as of June 30, 2003 are as follows (in thousands, except percentages):

The Company’s existing sources of capital include the public debt and equity markets, proceeds from Property dispositions and net cash provided by operating activities. Additionally, the Company expects to incur variable rate debt, including borrowings under the $350 million Credit Facility from time to time.

The Board of Trustees has authorized a share repurchase program under which the Company may purchase up to $100 million of the Company’s Common Shares, preferred shares or convertible debentures. Through June 30, 2003, the Company purchased 59,100 Common Shares and purchased convertible debentures exchangeable into 877,950 Common Shares. The total cost for the purchase of the Common Shares and convertible debentures was approximately $21.9 million. The convertible debentures matured in 2001.

The Company has an effective S-3 shelf registration statement on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Shelf Registration Statement”). As of August 6, 2003, pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement, the Trust had the capacity to issue up to $688.4 million in equity securities and the Operating Partnership had the capacity to issue up to $324.3 million in debt securities.

Related Party Transactions

Pursuant to agreements, the Company provides management services with respect to RKL (see Note 6 to the Liberty Property Trust and Liberty Property Limited Partnership Financial Statements), which is currently owned by certain

24

affiliates of the Company. For the six months ended June 30, 2003, the fees for these services were $150,000 per quarter. The Company pays a fee to RKL for management services which it provides for the Company’s properties owned in the United Kingdom. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2003, the fees for these services were $104,000 and $223,000. The Company had accounts receivable and loans receivable from RKL and affiliates with balances of $1.2 million and $25.9 million, respectively, as of June 30, 2003. The Company recognized interest income on notes receivable from RKL of $1.1 million and $1.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003.

Beginning July 1, 2003, RKL will be consolidated into the Company’s financial statements as a result of the adoption of the provisions of FIN No. 46. The Company does not expect its financial position or results of operations to be materially affected by this consolidation.

Investment in Unconsolidated Joint Ventures

In 2002 the Company partnered with the Public Employees’ Retirement Association of Colorado on a $123 million joint venture consisting of the Company’s southern New Jersey industrial portfolio. The Company sold or contributed 28 industrial distribution Properties totaling approximately 3.1 million leaseable square feet and approximately 43 acres of developable land. The Company retained a 25% ownership interest in the venture, and realized proceeds of approximately $109 million from the transaction. The Company will receive development, leasing and property management fees, and may receive a promoted interest if certain return thresholds are met. The venture is financed with approximately 60% leverage.

During the three months ended June 30, 2003 the Company contributed to the venture one additional industrial distribution property totaling approximately 374,000 leaseable square feet for a Total Investment, as defined below, of $15.6 million. “Total Investment” for a Property is defined as the Property’s purchase price plus closing costs and management’s estimate, as determined at the time of acquisition, of the cost of necessary improvements in the case of acquisitions, or land costs and land and building improvement costs in the case of development projects, and when appropriate, other development costs and carrying costs.

Calculation of Funds from Operations

Management generally considers Funds from operations (as defined below) a useful financial performance measure of the operating performance of an equity REIT. Funds from operations is defined by NAREIT as net income (computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”)), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of property, plus depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Funds from operations does not represent net income or cash flows from operations as defined by GAAP and does not necessarily indicate that cash flows will be sufficient to fund cash needs. It should not be considered as an alternative to net income as an indicator of the Company’s operating performance or to cash flows as a measure of liquidity. Funds from operations also does not represent cash flows generated from operating, investing or financing activities as defined by GAAP. Funds from operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 are as follows:

		Three Months Ended						Six Months Ended
		June 30, 2003			June 30, 2002			June 30, 2003			June 30, 2002
Income available to common shareholders		$	45,029		$	41,754		$	86,616		$	81,204
Adjustments:
	Minority interest less preferred unit distributions		2,117			2,138			4,110			4,219
	Depreciation and amortization		30,783			27,286			59,246			53,364
	Depreciation and amortization of unconsolidated joint ventures		161			—			327			—
	Gain on disposition of properties		(11,093	)		(3,536	)		(11,271	)		(4,407	)
Funds from operations		$	66,997		$	67,642		$	139,028		$	134,380

Inflation

Inflation has remained relatively low during the last three years, and as a result, it has not had a significant impact on the Company during this period. The $350 million Credit Facility bears interest at a variable rate; therefore, the amount of interest payable under the $350 million Credit Facility will be influenced by changes in short-term interest rates, which tend to be sensitive to inflation. To the extent an increase in inflation would result in increased operating costs, such as in insurance, real estate taxes and utilities, substantially all of the tenants’ leases require the tenants to absorb these costs as part of their rental obligations. In addition, inflation also may have the effect of increasing market rental rates.

Item 3: Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

There have been no material changes to the Company’s exposure to market risk since its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002.

Item 4: Controls and Procedures

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company’s management, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report are functioning effectively to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. A controls system, no matter how well designed and operated, cannot provide absolute assurance that the objectives of the controls system are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected.

(b) Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

No change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting occurred during the most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the internal control over financial reporting.
