                         RECKSON ASSOCIATES REALTY CORP.
                 NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                 MARCH 31, 2004
                                   (UNAUDITED)

1. ORGANIZATION AND FORMATION OF THE COMPANY

Reckson Associates Realty Corp. (the "Company") is a self-administered and self
managed real estate investment trust ("REIT") engaged in the ownership,
management, operation, leasing and development of commercial real estate
properties, principally office and to a lesser extent industrial buildings and
also owns land for future development (collectively, the "Properties") located
in the New York City tri-state area (the "Tri-State Area").

The Company was incorporated in Maryland in September 1994. In June 1995, the
Company completed an initial public offering (the "IPO") and commenced
operations.

The Company became the sole general partner of Reckson Operating Partnership,
L.P. (the "Operating Partnership") by contributing substantially all of the net
proceeds of the IPO in exchange for an approximate 73% interest in the Operating
Partnership. At March 31, 2004, the Company's ownership percentage in the
Operating Partnership was approximately 94.6%. All Properties acquired by the
Company are held by or through the Operating Partnership. In conjunction with
the IPO, the Operating Partnership executed various option and purchase
agreements whereby it issued common units of limited partnership interest in the
Operating Partnership ("OP Units") to certain continuing investors in exchange
for (i) interests in certain property partnerships, (ii) fee simple and
leasehold interests in properties and development land, (iii) certain other
business assets and (iv) 100% of the non-voting preferred stock of Reckson
Management Group, Inc. and Reckson Construction Group, Inc.

2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the consolidated
financial position of the Company, the Operating Partnership and the Service
Companies (as defined below) at March 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003 and the
results of their operations and their cash flows for the three months ended
March 31, 2004 and 2003. The Operating Partnership's investments in majority
owned and controlled real estate joint ventures are reflected in the
accompanying financial statements on a consolidated basis with a reduction for
the minority partners' interest. The Operating Partnership also invests in real
estate joint ventures where it may own less than a controlling interest. Such
investments are reflected in the accompanying financial statements on the equity
method of accounting. The Service Companies which provide management,
development and construction services to the Company and the Operating
Partnership are Reckson Management Group, Inc., RANY Management Group, Inc.,
Reckson Construction Group New York, Inc., Reckson Construction Group, Inc. and
Reckson Construction & Development LLC (the "Service Companies"). All
significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in the
consolidated financial statements.

Reckson Construction Group, Inc., Reckson Construction Group New York, Inc. and
Reckson Construction & Development LLC use the percentage-of-completion method
for recording amounts earned on their contracts. This method records amounts
earned as revenue in the proportion that actual costs incurred to date bear to
the estimate of total costs at contract completion.

Minority partners' interests in consolidated partnerships represent a 49%
non-affiliated interest in RT Tri-State LLC, owner of a seven property suburban
office portfolio, a 40% non-affiliated interest in Omni Partners, L.P., owner of
a 579,000 square foot suburban office property and a 49% non-affiliated interest
in Metropolitan 919 Third Avenue, LLC, owner of the property located at 919
Third Avenue, New York, NY. Limited partners' minority interest in the Operating
Partnership was approximately 5.4% and 10.5% at March 31, 2004 and 2003,
respectively.

The Company follows the guidance provided for under the Financing Accounting
Standards Board ("FASB") Statement No. 66, "Accounting for Sales of Real Estate"
("Statement No. 66"), which provides guidance on sales contracts that are
accompanied by agreements which require the seller to develop the property in
the future. Under Statement No. 66 profit is recognized and allocated to the
sale of the land and the later development or construction work on the basis of
estimated costs of each activity; the same rate of profit is attributed to each
activity. As a result, profits are recognized and reflected over the improvement
period on the basis of costs incurred (including land) as a percentage of total
costs estimated to be incurred. The Company uses the percentage of completion
method, as the future costs of development and profit are reliably estimated.

                                       5



The accompanying interim unaudited financial statements have been prepared by
the Company's management pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities
and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosure normally
included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP") may have been
condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although management
believes that the disclosures are adequate to not make the information presented
misleading. The unaudited financial statements as of March 31, 2004 and for the
three month periods ended March 31, 2004 and 2003 include, in the opinion of
management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments,
necessary to present fairly the financial information set forth herein. The
results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of
the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2004. These
financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited
financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company's Form 10-K
for the year ended December 31, 2003.

The Company intends to continue to qualify as a REIT under Sections 856 through
860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). As a REIT,
the Company will not generally be subject to corporate Federal income taxes as
long as it satisfies certain technical requirements of the Code relating to
composition of its income and assets and requirements relating to distributions
of taxable income to shareholders.

The Company considers highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months
or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. Cash balances at March 31, 2004
include approximately $50 million of the net proceeds received during the three
month period ended March 31, 2004 relating to property sales, the Company's
equity offering (see Note 7) and the Operating Partnership's issuance of senior
unsecured notes (see Note 4).

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current
period presentation.

In October 2001, the FASB issued Statement No. 144, "Accounting for the
Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets". Statement No. 144 provides
accounting guidance for financial accounting and reporting for the impairment or
disposal of long-lived assets. Statement No. 144 supersedes Statement No. 121,
"Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to
be Disposed of". It also supersedes the accounting and reporting provisions of
Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 30, Reporting the Results of
Operations--Reporting the Effects of Disposal of a Segment of a Business, and
Extraordinary, Unusual and Infrequently Occurring Events and Transactions
related to the disposal of a segment of a business. The Company adopted
Statement No. 144 on January 1, 2002. The adoption of this statement did not
have a material effect on the results of operations or the financial position of
the Company. The adoption of Statement No. 144 does not have an impact on net
income allocable to common shareholders. Statement No. 144 only impacts the
presentation of the results of operations and gain on sales of depreciable real
estate assets for those properties sold or held for sale during the period
within the consolidated statements of income.

On July 1, 2001 and January 1, 2002, the Company adopted FASB Statement No.141,
"Business Combinations" and FASB Statement No. 142, "Goodwill and Other
Intangibles", respectively. As part of the acquisition of real estate assets,
the fair value of the real estate acquired is allocated to the acquired tangible
assets, consisting of land, building and building improvements, and identified
intangible assets and liabilities, consisting of the value of above-market and
below-market leases, other value of in-place leases, and value of tenant
relationships, based in each case on their fair values. The Company assesses
fair value based on estimated cash flow projections that utilize appropriate
discount and capitalization rates and available market information. Estimates of
future cash flows are based on a number of factors including the historical
operating results, known trends, and market/economic conditions that may affect
the property. If the Company incorrectly estimates the values at acquisition or
the undiscounted cash flows, initial allocation of purchase price and future
impairment charges may be different.

Effective January 1, 2002 the Company has elected to follow FASB Statement No.
123, "Accounting for Stock Based Compensation". Statement No.123 requires the
use of option valuation models which determine the fair value of the option on
the date of the grant. All future employee stock option grants will be expensed
over the options' vesting periods based on the fair value at the date of the
grant in accordance with Statement No. 123. The Company expects minimal
financial impact from the adoption of Statement No. 123. To determine the fair
value of the stock options granted, the Company uses a Black-Scholes option
pricing model. Prior to the adoption of Statement No. 123, the Company had
applied Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 and related interpretations
in accounting for its stock option plans and reported pro forma disclosures in
its Form 10-K filings by estimating the fair value of options issued and the
related expense in accordance with Statement No. 123.

In December 2002, the FASB issued Statement No. 148, "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation--Transition and Disclosure" ("Statement No. 148"). Statement No.
148 amends Statement No. 123 to provide alternative methods of transition for an
entity that voluntarily adopts the fair value recognition method of recording
stock option expense. Statement No. 148 also amends the disclosure provisions of
Statement 123 and APB Opinion No. 28. "Interim Financial Reporting" to require
disclosure in the summary of significant accounting policies of the effects of
an entity's accounting policy with respect to stock options on reported net
income and earnings per share in annual and interim financial statements.

In November 2002, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 45, "Guarantor's Accounting
and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of
Indebtedness of Others" ("FIN 45"). FIN 45 significantly changes the current
practice in the accounting for, and disclosure of, guarantees. Guarantees and
indemnification agreements meeting the characteristics described in FIN 45 are
required to be initially recorded as a liability at fair value. FIN 45 also
requires a guarantor to make significant new disclosures for virtually all
guarantees even if the likelihood of the guarantor having to make payment under
the guarantee is remote. The disclosure requirements within FIN 45 are effective
for financial statements for annual or interim periods ending after December 15,
2002. The initial recognition and initial measurement provisions are applicable
on a prospective basis to guarantees issued or modified after December 31, 2002.
The Company adopted FIN 45 on January 1, 2003. The adoption of this
interpretation did not have a material effect on the results of operations or
the financial position of the Company.

In January 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 46, "Consolidation of
Variable Interest Entities" ("FIN 46"), which explains how to identify variable
interest entities ("VIEs") and how to assess whether to consolidate such
entities. The initial determination of whether an entity qualifies as a VIE
shall be made as of the date at which a primary beneficiary becomes involved
with the entity and reconsidered as of the date of a triggering event, as
defined. The provisions of this interpretation are immediately effective for
VIEs formed after January 31, 2003. In December 2003 the FASB issued FIN 46R,
deferring the effective date until the period ending March 31, 2004 for
interests held by public companies in VIEs created before February 1, 2003,
which were non-special purpose entities. The Company adopted FIN 46R during the
period ended March 31, 2004. The Company has determined that its consolidated
and unconsolidated subsidiaries do not represent VIEs requiring consolidation
pursuant to such interpretation. The Company will continue to monitor any
changes in circumstances relating to certain of its consolidated and
unconsolidated joint ventures which could result in a change in the Company's
consolidation policy.

In May 2003, the FASB issued Statement No. 150, "Accounting for Certain
Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity"
("Statement No. 150"). Statement No. 150 is effective for financial instruments
entered into or modified after May 15, 2003, and otherwise is effective at the
beginning of the first interim period beginning after June 15, 2003. It is to be
implemented by reporting the cumulative effect of a change in an accounting
principle for financial instruments created before the issuance date of the
statement and still existing at the beginning of the interim period of adoption.
The adoption of Statement No. 150 did not have a material effect on the
Company's financial position or results of operations.

3. MORTGAGE NOTES PAYABLE

As of March 31, 2004, the Company had approximately $968.7 million of mortgage
notes payable, which mature at various times between 2004 and 2027. The notes
are secured by 20 properties with an aggregate carrying value of approximately
$1.83 billion which are pledged as collateral against the mortgage notes
payable. In addition, approximately $43.8 million of the $968.7 million is
recourse to the Company and certain of the mortgage notes payable are guaranteed
by certain limited partners in the Operating Partnership and / or the Company.

The following table sets forth the Company's mortgage notes payable as of March
31, 2004, by scheduled maturity date (dollars in thousands):

    (b)  The Company has a 60% general partnership interest in this property and
         its proportionate share of the aggregate principal amount is
         approximately $31.6 million.
    (c)  The Company has a 51% membership interest in this property and its
         proportionate share of the aggregate principal amount is approximately
         $124.2 million.
    (d)  Subject to interest rate adjustment on November 1, 2004 to the greater
         of 8.82% per annum or the yield on non-callable U.S. treasury
         obligations with a term of fifteen years plus 2% per annum. The Company
         has the ability to pre-pay the loan at that time. In addition, these
         properties are cross-collateralized.
    (e)  These properties are cross-collateralized.
    (f)  Such rate is based on the greater of one month LIBOR or 2.15% plus a
         weighted average spread of approximately 2.80%. An interest rate hedge
         agreement was acquired to limit exposure to increases in LIBOR above
         5.825%.

In addition, the Company has a 60% interest in an unconsolidated joint venture
property. The Company's share of the mortgage debt at March 31, 2004 is
approximately $7.8 million. This mortgage note payable bears interest at 8.85%
per annum and matures on September 1, 2005 at which time the Company's share of
the mortgage debt will be approximately $6.9 million.

On March 19, 2004, the Company entered into two anticipatory interest rate hedge
instruments which are scheduled to coincide with an August 2004 debt maturity,
totaling approximately $100 million, to protect itself against potentially
rising interest rates. At March 31, 2004, the fair value of these instruments
reasonably approximate their carrying value.

4. SENIOR UNSECURED NOTES

On January 22, 2004, the Operating Partnership issued $150 million of seven-year
5.15% (5.196% effective rate) senior unsecured notes. Prior to the issuance of
these notes the Company entered into several anticipatory interest rate hedge
instruments to protect itself against potentially rising interest rates. At the
time the notes were issued the Company incurred a net cost of approximately
$980,000 to settle these instruments. Such costs will be amortized over the term
of the notes. Net proceeds of approximately $148 million received from this
issuance were used to repay outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility (as
defined below) and to invest in short-term liquid investments.

On March 15, 2004, the Company repaid $100 million of the Operating
Partnership's 7.4% senior unsecured notes at maturity.

As of March 31, 2004, the Operating Partnership had outstanding approximately
$549.1 million (net of issuance discounts) of senior unsecured notes (the
"Senior Unsecured Notes"). The following table sets forth the Operating
Partnership's Senior Unsecured Notes and other related disclosures by scheduled
maturity date (dollars in thousands):

                      $550,000

Interest on the Senior Unsecured Notes is payable semi-annually with principal
and unpaid interest due on the scheduled maturity dates. In addition, certain of
the Senior Unsecured Notes were issued at discounts aggregating $1,231,000. Such
discounts are being amortized over the term of the Senior Unsecured Notes to
which they relate.

5. UNSECURED CREDIT FACILITY

The Company currently has a $500 million unsecured revolving credit facility
(the "Credit Facility") from JPMorgan Chase Bank, as administrative agent, Wells
Fargo Bank, National Association, as syndication agent, and Citicorp North
America, Inc. and Wachovia Bank, National Association, as co-documentation
agents. The Credit Facility matures in December 2005, contains options for a
one-year extension subject to a fee of 25 basis points and, upon receiving
additional lender commitments, increasing the maximum revolving credit amount to
$750 million. As of March 31, 2004, based on a pricing grid of the Operating
Partnership's unsecured debt ratings, borrowings under the Credit Facility were
priced off LIBOR plus 90 basis points and the Credit Facility carried a facility
fee of 20 basis points per annum. In the event of a change in the Operating
Partnership's unsecured credit ratings the interest rates and facility fee are
subject to change. At March 31, 2004, the outstanding borrowings under the
Credit Facility aggregated $90 million and carried a weighted average interest
rate of 1.99%.

The Company utilizes the Credit Facility primarily to finance real estate
investments, fund its real estate development activities and for working capital
purposes. At March 31, 2004, the Company had availability under the Credit
Facility to borrow approximately an additional $410 million, subject to
compliance with certain financial covenants.

In connection with the acquisition of certain properties, contributing partners
of such properties have provided guarantees on indebteness of the Company. As a
result, the Company maintains certain outstanding balances on its Credit
Facility.

In accordance with the provisions of FASB Statement No. 144, the Company
allocated $0 and approximately $2.6 million of its unsecured corporate interest
expense to discontinued operations for the three month periods ended March 31,
2004 and 2003, respectively.

6. COMMERCIAL REAL ESTATE INVESTMENTS

As of March 31, 2004, the Company owned and operated 77 office properties
(inclusive of ten office properties owned through joint ventures) comprising
approximately 14.6 million square feet, 11 industrial / R&D properties
comprising approximately 1.1 million square feet and one retail property
comprising approximately 9,000 square feet located in the Tri-State Area.

As of March 31, 2004, the Company also owned approximately 313 acres of land in
12 separate parcels of which the Company can develop approximately 3.0 million
square feet of office space. The Company is currently evaluating alternative
land uses for certain of the land holdings to realize the highest economic
value. These alternatives may include rezoning certain land parcels from
commercial to residential for potential disposition. As of March 31, 2004, the
Company had invested approximately $161.6 million in these development projects.
Management has made subjective assessments as to the value and recoverability of
these investments based on current and proposed development plans, market
comparable land values and alternative use values. As of March 31, 2004, the
Company has capitalized approximately $2.8 million related to real estate taxes,
interest and other carrying costs related to these development projects. In
October 2003, the Company entered into a contract to sell a 113 acre land
parcel located in New Jersey. The contract provides for a sales price ranging
from $18 million to $36 million. The sale is contingent upon obtaining zoning
for residential use of the land and other customary approvals. The proceeds
ultimately received from such sale will be based upon the number of residential
units permitted by the rezoning. The cost basis of the land parcel at March 31,
2004 was approximately $2.7 million. The closing is scheduled to occur upon the
rezoning, which is anticipated to occur within 12 to 24 months. A second
contract to sell a separate parcel of land was signed in October 2003. That
contract was subsequently cancelled. During February 2004, a 3.9 acre land
parcel located on Long Island was condemned by the Town of Oyster Bay. As
consideration for the condemnation the Company anticipates it will initially
receive approximately $1.8 million. The Company's cost basis in this land parcel
at March 31, 2004 was approximately $1.4 million. The Company is currently
contesting this valuation and seeking payment of additional consideration from
the Town of Oyster Bay but there can be no assurances that the Company will be
successful in obtaining any such additional consideration.

In November 2003, the Company disposed of all but three of its 95 property, 5.9
million square foot, Long Island industrial building portfolio to members of the
Rechler family (the "Disposition") for approximately $315.5 million, comprised
of $225.1 million in cash and debt assumption and 3,932,111 OP Units valued at
approximately $90.4 million. Approximately $204 million of cash sales proceeds
from the Disposition were used to repay borrowings under the Credit Facility.
For information concerning certain litigation pertaining to this transaction see
Part II-Other Information; Item 1. Legal Proceedings of this Form 10-Q.

In January 2004, the Company sold a 104,000 square foot office property located
on Long Island for approximately $18.5 million. Net proceeds from the sale were
used to repay borrowings under the Credit Facility. As a result, the Company
recorded a net gain of approximately $5.2 million, net of limited partners'
minority interest. In accordance with FASB Statement No. 144, such gain has been
reflected in discontinued operations on the Company's consolidated statement of
income for the three month period ended March 31, 2004.

In January 2004, the Company acquired 1185 Avenue of the Americas, a 42-story,
1.1 million square foot Class A office tower, located between 46th and 47th
Streets in New York, NY for $321 million. In connection with this acquisition,
the Company assumed a $202 million mortgage and $48 million of mezzanine debt.
The balance of the purchase price was paid through an advance under the Credit
Facility. The floating rate mortgage and mezzanine debt both mature in August
2004 and presently have a weighted average interest rate of 4.95%. Such rate is
based on the greater of one month LIBOR or 2.15% plus a weighted average spread
of approximately 2.80%. An interest rate hedge agreement was acquired to limit
exposure to increases in LIBOR above 5.825%. The property is also encumbered by
a ground lease which has a remaining term of approximately 40 years with rent
scheduled to be re-set at the end of 2005 and then remain constant for the
balance of the term. There can be no assurances as to the outcome of the rent
re-set process. In accordance with FASB Statement No. 141, "Business
Combinations", the Company allocated and recorded net deferred intangible lease
income of approximately $14.2 million, representing the net value of acquired
above and below market leases, assumed lease origination costs and other value
of in-place leases. The net value of the above and below market leases is
amortized over the remaining terms of the respective leases to rental income
which amounted to approximately $1.8 million for the three month period ended
March 31, 2004. In addition, amortization expense on the value of lease
origination costs was approximately $527,000. At acquisition, there were 31
in-place leases aggregating approximately one million square feet with a
weighted average remaining lease term of approximately 6 years.

In April 2004, the Company sold a 175,000 square foot office building located on
Long Island for approximately $30 million, of which the Company owned a 51%
interest, and a wholly owned 9,000 square foot retail property for approximately
$2.8 million. Net proceeds from these sales are currently being held in
short-term, liquid investments. In addition, the Company completed the sale on
two of the remaining three properties from the Disposition for approximately
$5.8 million. Proceeds from the sale were used to establish an escrow account
with a qualified intermediary for a future exchange of real property pursuant to
Section 1031 of the Code (a "Section 1031 Exchange"). A Section 1031 Exchange
allows for the deferral of taxes related to the gain attributable to the sale of
property if qualified replacement property is identified within 45 days and such
qualified replacement property is then acquired within 180 days from the initial
sale. There can be no assurances that the Company will meet the requirements of
Section 1031 by identifying and acquiring qualified replacement properties in
the required time frame, in which case the Company would incur the tax liability
on the capital gain realized of approximately $1.5 million. The disposition of
the other industrial property, which is subject to certain environmental issues,
is conditioned upon the approval of the buyer's lender, which has not been
obtained. As a result, the Company may not dispose of this property as part of
the Disposition. Management

                                       10



believes that if the Company were to continue to hold this property, the cost to
address the environmental issues would not have a material adverse effect on the
Company, but there can be no assurance in this regard.

During February 2003, the Company, through Reckson Construction Group, Inc.,
entered into a contract with an affiliate of First Data Corp. to sell a
19.3-acre parcel of land located in Melville, New York and was retained by the
purchaser to develop a build-to-suit 195,000 square foot office building for
aggregate consideration of approximately $47 million. This transaction closed on
March 11, 2003 and development of the aforementioned office building is near
completion. In accordance with FASB Statement No. 66, the Company has estimated
its book gain, before taxes, on this land sale and build-to-suit transaction to
be approximately $23.7 million, of which $4.6 million and $5.8 million has been
recognized during the three month periods ended March 31, 2004 and 2003,
respectively, and is included in investment and other income on the accompanying
consolidated statements of income. Approximately $300,000 is estimated to be
earned in future periods when the development is completed.

The Company holds a $17.0 million note receivable, which bears interest at 12%
per annum and is secured by a minority partnership interest in Omni Partners,
L.P., owner of the Omni, a 579,000 square foot Class A office property located
in Uniondale, New York (the "Omni Note"). The Company currently owns a 60%
majority partnership interest in Omni Partners, L.P. and on March 14, 2007 may
exercise an option to acquire the remaining 40% interest for a price based on
90% of the fair market value of the property. As of March 31, 2004, the Company
held a $15 million participating interest in a $30 million junior mezzanine loan
which is secured by a pledge of an indirect ownership interest of an entity
which owns the ground leasehold estate under a 1.1 million square foot office
complex located on Long Island, New York (the "Mezz Note"). During April 2004,
the Company acquired the remaining interest in the Mezz Note for approximately
$15.5 million. The Mezz Note matures in September 2005, currently bears interest
at 12.68%, and the borrower has the right to extend for three additional
one-year periods. The Company also holds three other notes receivable
aggregating $21.5 million which bear interest at rates ranging from 10.5% to 12%
per annum. These notes are secured in part by a minority partner's preferred
unit interest in the Operating Partnership, an interest in real property and a
personal guarantee (the "Other Notes" and collectively with the Omni Note and
the Mezz Note, the "Note Receivable Investments"). During April 2004,
approximately $2.7 million of the Other Notes were repaid by the minority
partner exchanging, and the Operating Partnership redeeming, approximately 3,081
preferred units. The preferred units were redeemed at a par value of $3.1
million. Approximately $400,000 of the redemption proceeds was used to offset
interest due from the minority partner under the Other Notes and for prepaid
interest. As of March 31, 2004, management has made subjective assessments as to
the underlying security value on the Company's Note Receivable Investments.
These assessments indicate an excess of market value over the carrying value
related to the Company's Note Receivable Investments. Based on these assessments
the Company's management believes there is no impairment to the carrying value
related to the Company's Note Receivable Investments.

The Company also owns a 355,000 square foot office building in Orlando, Florida.
This non-core real estate holding was acquired in May 1999 in connection with
the Company's initial New York City portfolio acquisition. This property is
cross-collateralized under a $100.6 million mortgage note payable along with one
of the Company's New York City buildings. The Company has the right to prepay
this note in November 2004, prior to its maturity.

The Company also owns a 60% non-controlling interest in a 172,000 square foot
office building located at 520 White Plains Road in White Plains, New York (the
"520JV"), which it manages. As of March 31, 2004, the 520JV had total assets of
$20 million, a mortgage note payable of $11.8 million and other liabilities of
$549,000. The Company's allocable share of the 520JV mortgage note payable is
approximately $7.8 million. This mortgage note payable bears interest at 8.85%
per annum and matures on September 1, 2005. The operating agreement of the 520JV
requires joint decisions from all members on all significant operating and
capital decisions including sale of the property, refinancing of the property's
mortgage debt, development and approval of leasing strategy and leasing of
rentable space. As a result of the decision-making participation relative to the
operations of the property, the Company accounts for the 520JV under the equity
method of accounting. In accordance with the equity method of accounting the
Company's proportionate share of the 520JV income was approximately $114,000 and
$106,000 for the three month periods ended March 31, 2004 and 2003,
respectively.

During September 2000, the Company formed a joint venture (the "Tri-State JV")
with Teachers Insurance and Annuity Association ("TIAA") and contributed nine
Class A suburban office properties aggregating approximately 1.5 million square
feet to the Tri-State JV for a 51% majority ownership interest. TIAA contributed
approximately $136 million for a 49% interest in the Tri-State JV which was then
distributed to the Company. In August 2003, the Company acquired TIAA's 49%
interest in the property located at 275 Broadhollow Road, Melville, NY, for
approximately $12.4 million. In addition, as previously discussed, the Tri-State
JV sold a 175,000 square foot office building located on Long Island for
approximately $30 million during April 2004. Net proceeds from this sale were
distributed to the members of the Tri-State JV. As a result of these
transactions, the Tri-State JV owns seven Class A suburban office properties
aggregating approximately 1.2 million square feet. The Company is responsible
for managing the day-to-day operations and business affairs of the Tri-State JV
and has substantial rights in making decisions affecting the properties such as
leasing, marketing and financing. The minority member has certain rights
primarily intended to protect its investment. For purposes of its financial
statements the Company consolidates the Tri-State JV.

On December 21, 2001, the Company formed a joint venture with the New York State
Teachers' Retirement Systems ("NYSTRS") (the "919JV") whereby NYSTRS acquired a
49% indirect interest in the property located at 919 Third Avenue, New York, NY
for $220.5 million which included $122.1 million of its proportionate share of
secured mortgage debt and approximately $98.4 million of cash which was then
distributed to the Company. The Company is responsible for managing the
day-to-day operations and business affairs of the 919JV and has substantial
rights in making decisions affecting the property such as developing a budget,
leasing and marketing. The minority

                                       11



member has certain rights primarily intended to protect its investment. For
purposes of its financial statements the Company consolidates the 919JV.

7.       STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

An OP Unit and a share of common stock have essentially the same economic
characteristics as they effectively share equally in the net income or loss and
distributions of the Operating Partnership. Subject to certain holding periods,
OP Units may either be redeemed for cash or, at the election of the Company,
exchanged for shares of common stock on a one-for-one basis. The OP Units
currently receive a quarterly distribution of $.4246 per unit. As of March 31,
2004, the Operating Partnership had issued and outstanding 3,084,708 Class A OP
Units and 465,845 Class C OP Units. The Class C OP Units were issued in August
2003 in connection with the contribution of real property to the Operating
Partnership and currently receive a quarterly distribution of $.4664 per unit

During March, 2004, the Board of Directors of the Company declared the following
dividends on the Company's securities:



                                                                                                         ANNUALIZED

On November 25, 2003 the Company exchanged all of its 9,915,313 outstanding
shares of Class B common stock for an equal number of shares of its common
stock. The Board of Directors declared a final cash dividend on the Company's
Class B common stock to holders of record on November 25, 2003 in the amount of
$.1758 per share which was paid on January 12, 2004. This payment covered the
period from November 1, 2003 through November 25, 2003 and was based on the
previous quarterly Class B common stock dividend rate of $.6471 per share. In
order to align the regular quarterly dividend payment schedule of the former
holders of Class B common stock with the schedule of the holders of common stock
for periods subsequent to the exchange date for the Class B common stock, the
Board of Directors also declared a cash dividend with regard to the common stock
to holders of record on October 14, 2003 in the amount of $.2585 per share which
was paid on January 12, 2004. This payment covered the period from October 1,
2003 through November 25, 2003 and was based on the current quarterly common
stock dividend rate of $.4246 per share. As a result, the Company declared
dividends through November 25, 2003 to all holders of common stock and Class B
common stock. The Board of Directors also declared the common stock cash
dividend for the portion of the fourth quarter subsequent to November 25, 2003.
The holders of record of common stock on January 2, 2004, giving effect to the
exchange transaction, received a dividend on the common stock in the amount of
$.1661 per share on January 12, 2004. This payment covered the period from
November 26, 2003 through December 31, 2003 and was based on the current
quarterly common stock dividend rate of $.4246 per share.

During the three month period ended March 31, 2004, approximately 630,000 shares
of the Company's common stock was issued in connection with the exercise of
outstanding options to purchase stock under its stock option plans resulting in
proceeds to the Company of approximately $13.3 million.

During the quarter ended March 31, 2004, the Operating Partnership issued $150
million of seven-year 5.15% (5.196% effective rate) senior unsecured notes. The
Company also completed an equity offering of 5.5 million shares of its common
stock raising approximately $149.5 million, net of an underwriting discount, or
$27.18 per share.

Prior to the issuance of the senior unsecured notes the Company entered into
several anticipatory interest rate hedge instruments to protect itself against
potentially rising interest rates. At the time the senior unsecured notes were
issued the Company incurred a net cost of approximately $980,000 to settle these
instruments. Such costs will be amortized over the term of the senior unsecured
notes.

Net proceeds received from these transactions were used to repay outstanding
borrowings under the Credit Facility, repay $100 million of the Operating
Partnership's 7.4% senior unsecured notes and to invest in short-term liquid
investments.

The Board of Directors of the Company authorized the purchase of up to five
million shares of the Company's common stock. Transactions conducted on the New
York Stock Exchange will be effected in accordance with the safe harbor
provisions of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and may be terminated by the
Company at any time. Since the Board's authorization, the Company has purchased
3,318,600 shares of its common stock for an aggregate purchase price of
approximately $71.3 million. No purchases were made during the three months
ended March 31, 2004.

The Board of Directors of the Company also formed a pricing committee to
consider purchases of up to $75 million of the Company's outstanding preferred
securities.

On March 31, 2004, the Company had issued and outstanding 8,834,500 shares of
7.625% Series A Convertible Cumulative Preferred Stock (the "Series A preferred
stock"). The Series A preferred stock is redeemable by the Company on or after
April 13, 2004 at a price of approximately $25.7625 per share with such price
decreasing, at annual intervals, to $25.00 per share on April 13, 2008. In
addition, the Series A preferred stock, at the option of the holder, is
convertible at any time into the Company's common stock at a price of
$28.51 per share.

                                       13



On January 1, 2004, the Company had issued and outstanding two million shares of
Series B Convertible Cumulative Preferred Stock (the "Series B preferred
stock"). The Series B preferred stock was redeemable by the Company as follows:
(i) on or after June 3, 2003 to and including June 2, 2004, at $25.50 per share
and (ii) on or after June 3, 2004 and thereafter, at $25.00 per share. The
Series B preferred stock, at the option of the holder, was convertible at any
time into the Company's common stock at a price of $26.05 per share. On January
16, 2004, the Company exercised its option to redeem the two million shares of
outstanding Series B preferred stock for approximately 1,958,000 shares of its
common stock. As a result of this redemption, based on current common dividend
rates, annual net dividends will decrease by approximately $1.1 million.

As of March 31, 2004, the Operating Partnership had issued and outstanding
approximately 19,662 preferred units of limited partnership interest with a
liquidation preference value of $1,000 per unit and a current annualized
distribution of $55.60 per unit. These units were issued in 1998 in connection
with the contribution of real property to the Operating Partnership. On April
12, 2004, the holder of these units gave notice to the Operating Partnership to
convert approximately 3,081 of these units. The Operating Partnership has
elected to redeem these units for approximately $3.1 million, including accrued
and unpaid dividends which will be applied to amounts owed from the unit holder
under the Other Notes.

The Company had historically structured long term incentive programs ("LTIP")
using restricted stock and stock loans. In July 2002, as a result of certain
provisions of the Sarbanes Oxley legislation, the Company discontinued the use
of stock loans in its LTIP. In connection with LTIP grants made prior to the
enactment of the Sarbanes Oxley legislation the Company made stock loans to
certain executive and senior officers to purchase 1,372,393 shares of its common
stock at market prices ranging from $18.44 per share to $27.13 per share. The
stock loans were set to bear interest at the mid-term Applicable Federal Rate
and were secured by the shares purchased. Such stock loans (including accrued
interest) were scheduled to vest and be ratably forgiven each year on the
anniversary of the grant date based upon vesting periods ranging from four to
ten years based on continued service and in part on attaining certain annual
performance measures. These stock loans had an initial aggregate weighted
average vesting period of approximately nine years. As of March 31, 2004, and
giving effect to the settlement of the employment contracts of certain former
executive officers, there remains 233,143 shares of common stock subject to the
original stock loans which are anticipated to vest between 2004 and 2011.
Approximately $308,000 and $1.1 million of compensation expense was recorded for
the three month periods ended March 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively, related to
these LTIP. Such amounts have been included in marketing, general and
administrative expenses on the accompanying consolidated statements of income.

The outstanding stock loan balances due from executive and senior officers
aggregated approximately $4.9 million at March 31, 2004, and have been included
as a reduction of additional paid in capital on the accompanying consolidated
balance sheets. Other outstanding loans to executive and senior officers at
March 31, 2004 amounted to approximately $2.3 million primarily related to tax
payment advances on stock compensation awards and life insurance contracts made
to certain executive and non-executive officers.

In November 2002 and March 2003 an award of rights was granted to certain
executive officers of the Company (the "2002 Rights" and "2003 Rights",
respectively, and collectively, the "Rights"). Each Right represents the right
to receive, upon vesting, one share of common stock if shares are then available
for grant under one of the Company's stock option plans or, if shares are not so
available, an amount of cash equivalent to the value of such stock on the
vesting date. The 2002 Rights will vest in four equal annual installments
beginning on November 14, 2003 (and shall be fully vested on November 14, 2006).
The 2003 Rights will be earned as of March 13, 2005 and will vest in three equal
annual installments beginning on March 13, 2005 (and shall be fully vested on
March 13, 2007). Dividends on the shares will be held by the Company until such
shares become vested, and will be distributed thereafter to the applicable
officer. The 2002 Rights also entitle the holder thereof to cash payments in
respect of taxes payable by the holder resulting from the Rights. The 2002
Rights aggregate 190,524 shares of the Company's common stock and the 2003
Rights aggregate 60,760 shares of common stock. As of March 31, 2004, and giving
effect to the settlement of the employment contracts of certain former executive
officers, there remains 47,126 shares of common stock related to the 2002 Rights
and 26,040 shares of common stock related to the 2003 Rights. During the three
month periods ended March 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively, the Company recorded
approximately $101,000 and $216,000 of compensation expense related to the
Rights. Such amounts have been included in marketing, general and administrative
expenses on the accompanying consolidated statements of income.

In March 2003, the Company established a new LTIP for its executive and senior
officers. The four-year plan has a core award, which provides for annual stock
based compensation based upon continued service and in part based on attaining
certain annual performance measures. The plan also has a special outperformance
award, which provides for compensation to be earned at the end of a four-year
period if the Company attains certain four-year cumulative performance measures.
Amounts earned under the special outperformance award may be paid in cash or
stock at the discretion of the Compensation Committee of the Board. Performance
measures are based on total shareholder returns on a relative and absolute
basis. On March 13, 2003, the Company made available 1,106,324 shares of its
common stock under its existing stock option plans in connection with the core
award of this LTIP for ten of its executive and senior officers. On March 13,
2004, the Company met its annual performance measure with respect to the prior
annual period. As a result, the Company issued to the participants approximately
207,000 shares of its common stock related to the core component of this LTIP.
As of March 31, 2004, and giving effect to the settlement of the employment
contracts of certain former executive officers, there remains 620,832 shares of
common stock reserved for future issuance under the core award of this LTIP.
With respect to the core award of this LTIP, the Company recorded approximately
$699,000 and $268,000 of compensation expense for the three month periods ended
March 31, 2004

                                       14



and 2003, respectively. Such amounts have been included in marketing, general
and administrative expenses on the accompanying consolidated statements of
income. Further, no provision will be made for the special outperformance award
of this LTIP until such time as achieving the requisite performance measures is
determined to be probable.

Basic net income per share on the Company's common stock was calculated using
the weighted average number of shares outstanding of 61,363,097 and 48,200,946
for the three months ended March 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively.

For the three month period ended March 31, 2003, basic net income per share on
the Company's Class B common stock was calculated using the weighted average
number of shares outstanding of 9,915,313.

The following table sets forth the Company's reconciliation of numerators and

9. SEGMENT DISCLOSURE

The Company owns all of the interests in its real estate properties directly or
indirectly through the Operating Partnership. The Company's portfolio consists
of Class A office properties located within the New York City metropolitan area
and Class A suburban office properties located and operated within the Tri-State
Area (the "Core Portfolio"). The Company's portfolio also includes one office
property located in Orlando, Florida. The Company has formed an Operating
Committee that reports directly to the President and Chief Financial Officer who
have been identified as the Chief Operating Decision Makers due to their final
authority over resource allocation, decisions and performance assessment.

The Company does not consider (i) interest incurred on its Credit Facility and
Senior Unsecured Notes, (ii) the operating performance of the office property
located in Orlando, Florida, (iii) the operating performance of those properties
reflected as discontinued operations in the Company's consolidated statements of
income, and (iv) the operating results of the Service Companies as part of its
Core Portfolio's property operating performance for purposes of its component
disclosure set forth below.

The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as those
described in the summary of significant account policies. In addition, amounts
reflected have been adjusted to give effect to the Company's discontinued
operations in accordance with FASB Statement No. 144.

The following table sets forth the components of the Company's revenues and

10.  NON-CASH INVESTING & FINANCING ACTIVITIES

In January 2004, in connection with the Company's acquisition of 1185 Avenue of
the Americas, New York, NY, the Company assumed a $202 million mortgate note
payable and $48 million of mezzanine debt (see Note 6).

                                       17



11. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

In connection with the Disposition, four of the five remaining options (the
"Remaining Option Properties") granted to the Company at the time of the IPO to
purchase interests in properties owned by Rechler family members were
terminated. In return the Company received an aggregate payment from the Rechler
family members of $972,000. Rechler family members have also agreed to extend
the term of the remaining option on the property located at 225 Broadhollow
Road, Melville, New York (the Company's current headquarters) for five years and
to release the Company from approximately 15,500 square feet under its lease at
this property. In connection with the restructuring of the remaining option the
Rechler family members paid the Company $1 million in return for the Company's
agreement not to exercise the option during the next three years. As part of the
agreement, the exercise price of the option payable by the Company was increased
by $1 million.

In addition, in April 2004, the Company completed the sale to the Rechler family
two of the three properties remaining in connection with the Disposition (see
Note 6).

As part of the Company's REIT structure it is provided management, leasing and
construction related services through taxable REIT subsidiaries as defined by
the Code. During the three month periods ended March 31, 2004 and 2003, Reckson
Construction Group, Inc. or its successor, Reckson Construction & Development,
LLC billed approximately $461,000 and $125,100, respectively, of market rate
services and Reckson Management Group, Inc. billed approximately $66,000 and
$71,000, respectively, of market rate management fees to the Remaining Option
Properties.

Reckson Management Group, Inc. leases approximately 26,000 square feet of office
space at a Remaining Option Property located at 225 Broadhollow Road, Melville,
New York for its corporate offices at an annual base rent of approximately
$760,000. The Company had also entered into a short term license agreement at
the property for 6,000 square feet of temporary space which expired in January
2004. Reckson Management Group, Inc. also leases 10,722 square feet of warehouse
space used for equipment, materials and inventory storage at a property owned by
certain members of the Rechler family at an annual base rent of approximately
$75,000.

A company affiliated with an Independent Director of the Company leases 15,566
square feet in a property owned by the Company at an annual base rent of
approximately $447,000.

During 1997, the Company formed FrontLine Capital Group, formerly Reckson
Service Industries, Inc. ("FrontLine") and Reckson Strategic Venture Partners,
LLC ("RSVP"). RSVP is a real estate venture capital fund which invested
primarily in real estate and real estate operating companies outside the
Company's core office and industrial / R&D focus and whose common equity is held
indirectly by FrontLine. In connection with the formation and spin-off of
FrontLine, the Operating Partnership established an unsecured credit facility
with FrontLine (the "FrontLine Facility") in the amount of $100 million for
FrontLine to use in its investment activities, operations and other general
corporate purposes. The Company has advanced approximately $93.4 million under
the FrontLine Facility. The Operating Partnership also approved the funding of
investments of up to $100 million relating to RSVP (the "RSVP Commitment"),
through RSVP-controlled joint ventures (for REIT-qualified investments) or
advances made to FrontLine under an unsecured loan facility (the "RSVP
Facility") having terms similar to the FrontLine Facility (advances made under
the RSVP Facility and the FrontLine Facility hereafter, the "FrontLine Loans").
During March 2001, the Company increased the RSVP Commitment to $110 million and
as of March 31, 2004 approximately $109.1 million had been funded through the
RSVP Commitment, of which $59.8 million represents investments by the Company in
RSVP-controlled (REIT-qualified) joint ventures and $49.3 million represents
loans made to FrontLine under the RSVP Facility. As of March 31, 2004, interest
accrued (net of reserves) under the FrontLine Facility and the RSVP Facility was
approximately $19.6 million.

                                       18



A committee of the Board of Directors, comprised solely of independent
directors, considers any actions to be taken by the Company in connection with
the FrontLine Loans and its investments in joint ventures with RSVP. During the
third quarter of 2001, the Company noted a significant deterioration in
FrontLine's operations and financial condition and, based on its assessment of
value and recoverability and considering the findings and recommendations of the
committee and its financial advisor, the Company recorded a $163 million
valuation reserve charge, inclusive of anticipated costs, in its consolidated
statements of operations relating to its investments in the FrontLine Loans and
joint ventures with RSVP. The Company has discontinued the accrual of interest
income with respect to the FrontLine Loans. The Company has also reserved
against its share of GAAP equity in earnings from the RSVP controlled joint
ventures funded through the RSVP Commitment until such income is realized
through cash distributions.

At December 31, 2001, the Company, pursuant to Section 166 of the Code, charged
off for tax purposes $70 million of the aforementioned reserve directly related
to the FrontLine Facility, including accrued interest. On February 14, 2002, the
Company charged off for tax purposes an additional $38 million of the reserve
directly related to the FrontLine Facility, including accrued interest, and $47
million of the reserve directly related to the RSVP Facility, including accrued
interest.

FrontLine is in default under the FrontLine Loans from the Operating Partnership
and on June 12, 2002, filed a voluntary petition for relief under Chapter 11 of
the United States Bankruptcy Code.

In September 2003, RSVP completed the restructuring of its capital structure and
management arrangements. In connection with the restructuring, RSVP redeemed the
interest of the preferred equity holders of RSVP for an aggregate of
approximately $137 million in cash and the transfer to the preferred equity
holders of the assets that comprised RSVP's parking investment valued at
approximately $28.5 million. RSVP also restructured its management arrangements
whereby a management company formed by its former managing directors has been
retained to manage RSVP pursuant to a management agreement and the employment
contracts of the managing directors with RSVP have been terminated. The
management agreement provides for an annual base management fee, and disposition
fees equal to 2% of the net proceeds received by RSVP on asset sales. (The base
management fee and disposition fees are subject to a maximum over the term of
the agreement of $7.5 million.) In addition, the managing directors retained a
one-third residual interest in RSVP's assets which is subordinated to the
distribution of an aggregate amount of $75 million to RSVP and/or the Company in
respect of its joint ventures with RSVP. The management agreement has a
three-year term, subject to early termination in the event of the disposition of
all of the assets of RSVP.

In connection with the restructuring, RSVP and certain of its affiliates
obtained a $60 million secured loan. In connection with this loan, the Operating
Partnership agreed to indemnify the lender in respect of any environmental
liabilities incurred with regard to RSVP's remaining assets in which the
Operating Partnership has a joint venture interest (primarily certain student
housing assets held by RSVP) and guaranteed the obligation of an affiliate of
RSVP to the lender in an amount up to $6 million plus collection costs for any
losses incurred by the lender as a result of certain acts of malfeasance on the
part of RSVP and/or its affiliates. The loan is scheduled to mature in 2006 and
is expected to be repaid from proceeds of assets sales by RSVP.

In April 2004, American Campus Communities, Inc. ("ACC"), a student housing
company owned by RSVP and a joint venture between RSVP and a subsidiary of the
Operating Partnership, filed a registration statement on Form S-11 with the
Securities and Exchange Commission in connection with a proposed initial public
offering ("IPO") of its common stock. RSVP and the joint venture between RSVP
and a subsidiary of the Operating Partnership plan to liquidate the ownership
position in ACC in connection with the IPO transaction.

As a result of the foregoing, the net carrying value of the Company's
investments in the FrontLine Loans and joint venture investments with RSVP,
inclusive of the Company's share of previously accrued GAAP equity in earnings
on those investments, is approximately $65 million which was reassessed with no
change by management as of March 31, 2004. Such amount has been reflected in
investments in service companies and affiliate loans and joint ventures on the
Company's consolidated balance sheet.

Scott H. Rechler, who serves as Chief Executive Officer, President and a
director of the Company, serves as CEO and Chairman of the Board of Directors of
FrontLine and is its sole board member. Scott H. Rechler also serves as a member
of the management committee of RSVP.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
        OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the historical
financial statements of Reckson Associates Realty Corp. (the "Company") and
related notes thereto.

The Company considers certain statements set forth herein to be forward-looking
statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended,
with respect to the Company's expectations for future periods. Certain
forward-looking statements, including, without limitation, statements relating
to the timing and success of acquisitions and the completion of development or
redevelopment of properties, the financing of the Company's operations, the
ability to lease vacant space and the ability to renew or relet space under
expiring leases, involve risks and uncertainties. Many of the forward-looking
statements can be identified by the use of words such as "believes", "may",
"expects", "anticipates", "intends" or similar expressions. Although the Company
believes that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are
based on reasonable assumptions, the actual results may differ materially from
those set forth in the forward-looking statements and the Company can give no
assurance that its expectation will be achieved. Among those risks, trends and
uncertainties are: the general economic climate, including the conditions
affecting industries in which our principal tenants compete; changes in the
supply of and demand for office in the New York Tri-State area; changes in
interest rate levels; changes in the Company's credit ratings; changes in the
Company's cost and access to capital; downturns in rental rate levels in our
markets and our ability to lease or re-lease space in a timely manner at current
or anticipated rental rate levels; the availability of financing to us or our
tenants; financial condition of our tenants; changes in operating costs,
including utility, security, real estate tax and insurance costs; repayment of
debt owed to the Company by third parties (including FrontLine Capital Group);
risks associated with joint ventures; liability for uninsured losses or
environmental matters; and other risks associated with the development and
acquisition of properties, including risks that development may not be completed
on schedule, that the tenants will not take occupancy or pay rent, or that
development or operating costs may be greater than anticipated. Consequently,
such forward-looking statements should be regarded solely as reflections of the
Company's current operating and development plans and estimates. These plans and
estimates are subject to revisions from time to time as additional information
becomes available, and actual results may differ from those indicated in the
referenced statements.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The consolidated financial statements of the Company include accounts of the
Company and all majority-owned subsidiaries. The preparation of financial
statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States ("GAAP") requires management to make estimates and assumptions in
certain circumstances that affect amounts reported in the Company's consolidated
financial statements and related notes. In preparing these financial statements,
management has utilized information available including its past history,
industry standards and the current economic environment among other factors in
forming its estimates and judgments of certain amounts included in the
consolidated financial statements, giving due consideration to materiality. It
is possible that the ultimate outcome as anticipated by management in
formulating its estimates inherent in these financial statements may not
materialize. However, application of the critical accounting policies below
involves the exercise of judgment and use of assumptions as to future
uncertainties and, as a result, actual results could differ from these
estimates. In addition, other companies may utilize different estimates, which
may impact comparability of the Company's results of operations to those of
companies in similar businesses.

Revenue Recognition and Accounts Receivable

Minimum rental revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis, which averages
minimum rents over the terms of the leases. The excess of rents recognized over
amounts contractually due are included in deferred rents receivable on the
Company's balance sheets. The leases also typically provide for tenant
reimbursements of common area maintenance and other operating expenses and real
estate taxes. Ancillary and other property related income is recognized in the
period earned.

The Company makes estimates of the collectibility of its tenant accounts
receivables related to base rents, tenant escalations and reimbursements and
other revenue or income. The Company specifically analyzes tenant receivables
and analyzes historical bad debts, customer credit worthiness, current economic
trends, changes in customer payment terms, publicly available information and,
to the extent available, guidance provided by the tenant when evaluating the
adequacy of its allowance for doubtful accounts. In addition, when tenants are
in bankruptcy the Company makes estimates of the expected recovery of
pre-petition administrative and damage claims. In some cases, the ultimate
resolution of those claims can exceed a year. These estimates have a direct
impact on the Company's net income because a higher bad debt reserve results in
less net income.

The Company incurred approximately $1.1 million and $2.0 million of bad debt
expense during the three month periods ended March 31, 2004 and 2003,
respectively, related to tenant receivables and deferred rents receivable which
accordingly reduced total revenues and reported net income during the periods

The Company records interest income on investments in mortgage notes and notes
receivable on an accrual basis of accounting. The Company does not accrue
interest on impaired loans where, in the judgment of management, collection of
interest according to the contractual terms is considered doubtful. Among the
factors the Company considers in making an evaluation of the collectibility of
interest are: (i) the status of the loan, (ii) the value of the underlying
collateral, (iii) the financial condition of the borrower and (iv) anticipated
future events.

Reckson Construction Group, Inc., Reckson Construction & Development LLC, (the
successor to Reckson Construction Group, Inc.) and Reckson Construction Group
New York, Inc. use the percentage-of-completion method for recording amounts
earned on their contracts. This method records amounts earned as revenue in the
proportion that actual costs incurred to date bear to the estimate of total
costs at contract completion.

Gain on sales of real estate are recorded when title is conveyed to the buyer,
subject to the buyer's financial commitment being sufficient to provide economic
substance to the sale and the Company having no substantial continuing
involvement with the buyer.

The Company follows the guidance provided for under the Financing Accounting
Standards Board ("FASB") Statement No. 66, "Accounting for Sales of Real Estate"
("Statement No. 66"), which provides guidance on sales contracts that are
accompanied by agreements which require the seller to develop the property in
the future. Under Statement No. 66 profit is recognized and allocated to the
sale of the land and the later development or construction work on the basis of
estimated costs of each activity; the same rate of profit is attributed to each
activity. As a result, profits are recognized and reflected over the improvement
period on the basis of costs incurred (including land) as a percentage of total
costs estimated to be incurred. The Company uses the percentage of completion
method, as the future costs of development and profit are reliably estimated.

Real Estate

Land, buildings and improvements, furniture, fixtures and equipment are recorded
at cost. Tenant improvements, which are included in buildings and improvements,
are also stated at cost. Expenditures for ordinary maintenance and repairs are
expensed to operations as incurred. Renovations and / or replacements, which
improve or extend the life of the asset, are capitalized and depreciated over
their estimated useful lives.

Depreciation is computed utilizing the straight-line method over the estimated
useful lives of ten to thirty years for buildings and improvements and five to
ten years for furniture, fixtures and equipment. Tenant improvements are
amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the related leases.

The Company is required to make subjective assessments as to the useful lives of
its properties for purposes of determining the amount of depreciation to reflect
on an annual basis with respect to those properties. These assessments have a
direct impact on the Company's net income. Should the Company lengthen the
expected useful life of a particular asset, it would be depreciated over more
years and result in less depreciation expense and higher annual net income.

Assessment by the Company of certain other lease related costs must be made when
the Company has a reason to believe that the tenant will not be able to execute
under the term of the lease as originally expected.

On July 1, 2001 and January 1, 2002, the Company adopted FASB Statement No.141,
"Business Combinations" and FASB Statement No. 142, "Goodwill and Other
Intangibles", respectively. As part of the acquisition of real estate assets,
the fair value of the real estate acquired is allocated to the acquired tangible
assets, consisting of land, building and building improvements, and identified
intangible assets and liabilities, consisting of the value of above-market and
below-market leases, other value of in-place leases, and value of tenant
relationships, based in each case on their fair values. The Company assesses
fair value based on estimated cash flow projections that utilize appropriate
discount and capitalization rates and available market information. Estimates of
future cash flows are based on a number of factors including the historical
operating results, known trends, and market/economic conditions that may affect
the property. If the Company incorrectly estimates the values at acquisition or
the undiscounted cash flows, initial allocation of purchase price and future
impairment charges may be different.

                                       21



Long Lived Assets

On a periodic basis, management assesses whether there are any indicators that
the value of the real estate properties may be impaired. A property's value is
impaired only if management's estimate of the aggregate future cash flows
(undiscounted and without interest charges) to be generated by the property are
less than the carrying value of the property. Such cash flows consider factors
such as expected future operating income, trends and prospects, as well as the
effects of demand, competition and other factors. To the extent impairment has
occurred, the loss will be measured as the excess of the carrying amount of the
property over the fair value of the property.

The Company is required to make subjective assessments as to whether there are
impairments in the value of its real estate properties and other investments.
These assessments have a direct impact on the Company's net income because
recognizing an impairment results in an immediate negative adjustment to net
income. In determining impairment, if any, the Company has adopted FASB
Statement No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long Lived
Assets." In accordance with the provisions of Statement No. 144, the Company
allocated $0 and approximately $2.6 million of its unsecured corporate interest
expense to discontinued operations for the three months ended March 31, 2004 and
2003, respectively.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months
or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. Cash balances at March 31, 2004
include approximately $50 million of the net proceeds received during the three
month period ended March 31, 2004 relating to property sales, the Company's
March 2004 equity offering and the Operating Partnership's January 2004 issuance
of senior unsecured notes.

                                       22



OVERVIEW AND BACKGROUND

The Company is a self-administered and self-managed real estate investment trust
("REIT") specializing in the ownership, operation, acquisition, leasing,
financing, management and development of office and to a lesser extent
industrial / R&D properties and also owns land for future development. The
Company's growth strategy is focused on the commercial real estate markets in
and around the New York City tri-state area (the "Tri-State Area"). The Company
owns all of its interest in its real properties, directly or indirectly, through
Reckson Operating Partnership, L.P. (the "Operating Partnership").

As of March 31, 2004, the Company owned and operated 77 office properties
(inclusive of ten office properties owned through joint ventures) comprising
approximately 14.6 million square feet, 11 industrial / R&D properties
comprising approximately 1.1 million square feet and one retail property
comprising approximately 9,000 square feet located in the Tri-State Area.

As of March 31, 2004, the Company also owned approximately 313 acres of land in
12 separate parcels of which the Company can develop approximately 3.0 million
square feet of office space. The Company is currently evaluating alternative
land uses for certain of the land holdings to realize the highest economic
value. These alternatives may include rezoning certain land parcels from
commercial to residential for potential disposition. As of March 31, 2004, the
Company had invested approximately $161.6 million in these development projects.
Management has made subjective assessments as to the value and recoverability of
these investments based on current and proposed development plans, market
comparable land values and alternative use values. As of March 31, 2004, the
Company has capitalized approximately $2.8 million related to real estate taxes,
interest and other carrying costs related to these development projects. In
October 2003, the Company entered into a contract to sell a 113 acre land parcel
located in New Jersey. The contract provides for a sales price ranging from $18
million to $36 million. The sale is contingent upon obtaining zoning for
residential use of the land and other customary approvals. The proceeds
ultimately received from such sale will be based upon the number of residential
units permitted by the rezoning. The cost basis of the land parcel at March 31,
2004 was approximately $2.7 million. The closing is scheduled to occur upon the
rezoning, which is anticipated to occur within 12 to 24 months. A second
contract to sell a separate parcel of land was signed in October 2003. That
contract was subsequently cancelled. During February 2004, a 3.9 acre land
parcel located on Long Island was condemned by the Town of Oyster Bay. As
consideration from the condemnation the Company anticipates it will initially
receive approximately $1.8 million. The Company's cost basis in this land parcel
at March 31, 2004 was approximately $1.4 million. The Company is currently
contesting this valuation and seeking payment of additional consideration from
the Town of Oyster Bay but there can be no assurances that the Company will be
successful in obtaining any such additional consideration.

In November 2003, the Company disposed of all but three of its 95 property, 5.9
million square foot, Long Island industrial building portfolio to members of the
Rechler family (the "Disposition") for approximately $315.5 million, comprised
of $225.1 million in cash and debt assumption and 3,932,111 common units of
limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership ("OP Units") valued at
approximately $90.4 million. Approximately $204 million of cash sales proceeds
from the Disposition were used to repay borrowings under the Credit Facility.
For information concerning certain litigation matters pertaining to this
transaction see Part II-Other Information; Item 1. Legal Proceedings of this
Form 10-Q.

In connection with the Disposition, four of the five remaining options (the
"Remaining Option Properties") granted to the Company at the time of the IPO to
purchase interests in properties owned by Rechler family members were
terminated. In return the Company received an aggregate payment from the Rechler
family members of $972,000. Rechler family members have also agreed to extend
the term of the remaining option on the property located at 225 Broadhollow
Road, Melville, New York (the Company's current headquarters) for five years and
to release the Company from approximately 15,500 square feet under its lease at
this property. In connection with the restructuring of the remaining option the
Rechler family members paid the Company $1 million in return for the Company's
agreement not to exercise the option during the next three years. As part of the
agreement, the exercise price of the option payable by the Company was increased
by $1 million.

In January 2004, the Company sold a 104,000 square foot office property located
on Long Island for approximately $18.5 million. Net proceeds from the sale were
used to repay borrowings under the Company's unsecured Credit Facility. As a
result, the Company recorded a net gain of approximately $5.2 million, net of
limited partners' minority interest. In accordance with FASB Statement No. 144,
such gain has been reflected in discontinued operations on the Company's
consolidated statement of income for the three month period ended March 31,
2004.

In January 2004, the Company acquired 1185 Avenue of the Americas, a 42-story,
1.1 million square foot Class A office tower, located between 46th and 47th
Streets in New York, NY for $321 million. In connection with this acquisition,
the Company assumed a $202 million mortgage and $48 million of mezzanine debt.
The balance of the purchase price was paid through an advance under the Credit
Facility. The floating rate mortgage and mezzanine debt both mature in August
2004 and presently have a weighted average interest rate of 4.95%. Such rate is
based on the greater of one month LIBOR or 2.15% plus a weighted average spread
of approximately 2.80%. An interest rate hedge agreement was acquired to limit
exposure to increases in LIBOR above 5.825%. The property is also encumbered by
a ground lease which has a remaining term of approximately 40 years with rent
scheduled to be re-set at the end of 2005 and then remain constant for the
balance of the term. There can be no assurances as to the outcome of the rent
re-set process. In accordance with FASB Statement No. 141, "Business
Combinations", the Company allocated and recorded net deferred intangible lease
income of approximately $14.2 million, representing the net value of acquired
above and below market leases, assumed lease origination costs and other value
of in-place leases. The net value of the above and below market leases is
amortized over the remaining terms of the respective leases to

                                       23



rental income which amounted to approximately $1.8 million for the three month
period ended March 31, 2004. In addition, amortization expense on the value of
lease origination costs was approximately $527,000. At acquisition, there were
31 in-place leases aggregating approximately one million square feet with a
weighted average remaining lease term of approximately 6 years.

In April 2004, the Company sold a 175,000 square foot office building located on
Long Island for approximately $30 million, of which the Company owned a 51%
interest, and a wholly owned 9,000 square foot retail property for approximately
$2.8 million. Net proceeds from these sales are currently being held in
short-term, liquid investments. In addition, the Company completed the sale on
two of the remaining three properties from the Disposition for approximately
$5.8 million. Proceeds from the sale were used to establish an escrow account
with a qualified intermediary for a future exchange of real property pursuant to
Section 1031 of the Code (a "Section 1031 Exchange"). A Section 1031 Exchange
allows for the deferral of taxes related to the gain attributable to the sale of
property if qualified replacement property is identified within 45 days and such
qualified replacement property is then acquired within 180 days from the initial
sale. There can be no assurances that the Company will meet the requirements of
Section 1031 by identifying and acquiring qualified replacement properties in
the required time frame, in which case the Company would incur the tax liability
on the capital gain realized of approximately $1.5 million. The disposition of
the other industrial property, which is subject to certain environmental issues,
is conditioned upon the approval of the buyer's lender, which has not been
obtained. As a result, the Company may not dispose of this property as part of
the Disposition. Management believes that if the Company were to continue to
hold this property, the cost to address the environmental issues would not have
a material adverse effect on the Company, but there can be no assurance in this
regard.

                                       24



During the quarter ended March 31, 2004, the Company executed a lease with
Nassau County for the entire building and concourse level at 60 Charles
Lindbergh Blvd., Long Island, comprising approximately 200,000 square feet,
including 127,000 square feet previously vacated by WorldCom/MCI. 60 Charles
Lindbergh Blvd. will be repositioned to satisfy Nassau County's use, requiring
customary municipal approvals.

During February 2003, the Company, through Reckson Construction Group, Inc.,
entered into a contract with an affiliate of First Data Corp. to sell a
19.3-acre parcel of land located in Melville, New York and has been retained by
the purchaser to develop a build-to-suit 195,000 square foot office building for
aggregate consideration of approximately $47 million. This transaction closed on
March 11, 2003 and development of the aforementioned office building is near
completion. In accordance with FASB Statement No. 66, the Company has estimated
its book gain before taxes on this land sale and build-to-suit transaction to be
approximately $23.7 million, of which $4.6 million and $5.8 million has been
recognized during the three month periods ended March 31, 2004 and 2003,
respectively, and is included in investment and other income on the Company's
consolidated statements of income. Approximately $300,000 is estimated to be
earned in future periods when the development is completed.

The Company holds a $17.0 million note receivable, which bears interest at 12%
per annum and is secured by a minority partnership interest in Omni Partners,
L.P., owner of the Omni, a 579,000 square foot Class A office property located
in Uniondale, New York (the "Omni Note"). The Company currently owns a 60%
majority partnership interest in Omni Partners, L.P. and on March 14, 2007 may
exercise an option to acquire the remaining 40% interest for a price based on
90% of the fair market value of the property. As of March 31, 2004, the Company
held a $15 million participating interest in a $30 million junior mezzanine loan
which is secured by a pledge of an indirect ownership interest of an entity
which owns the ground leasehold estate under a 1.1 million square foot office
complex located on Long Island, New York (the "Mezz Note"). During April 2004,
the Company acquired the remaining interest in the Mezz Note for approximately
$15.5 million. The Mezz Note matures in September 2005, currently bears interest
at 12.68%, and the borrower has the right to extend for three additional
one-year periods. The Company also holds three other notes receivable
aggregating $21.5 million which bear interest at rates ranging from 10.5% to 12%
per annum. These notes are secured in part by a minority partner's preferred
unit interest in the Operating Partnership, an interest in real property and a
personal guarantee (the "Other Notes" and collectively with the Omni Note and
the Mezz Note, the "Note Receivable Investments"). During April 2004,
approximately $2.7 million of the Other Notes were repaid by the minority
partner exchanging, and the Operating Partnership redeeming, approximately 3,081
preferred units. The preferred units were redeemed at a par value of $3.1
million. Approximately $400,000 of the redemption proceeds was used to offset
interest due from the minority partner under the Other Notes and for prepaid
interest. As of March 31, 2004, management has made subjective assessments as to
the underlying security value on the Company's Note Receivable Investments.
These assessments indicate an excess of market value over the carrying value
related to the Company's Note Receivable Investments. Based on these assessments
the Company's management believes there is no impairment to the carrying value
related to the Company's Note Receivable Investments.

The Company also owns a 355,000 square foot office building in Orlando, Florida.
This non-core real estate holding was acquired in May 1999 in connection with
the Company's initial New York City portfolio acquisition. This property is
cross-collateralized under a $100.6 million mortgage note payable along with one
of the Company's New York City buildings. The Company has the right to prepay
this note in November 2004, prior to its maturity.

The Company also owns a 60% non-controlling interest in a 172,000 square foot
office building located at 520 White Plains Road in White Plains, New York (the
"520JV"), which it manages. As of March 31, 2004, the 520JV had total assets of
$20 million, a mortgage note payable of $11.8 million and other liabilities of
$549,000. The Company's allocable share of the 520JV mortgage note payable is
approximately $7.8 million. This mortgage note payable bears interest at 8.85%
per annum and matures on September 1, 2005. The operating agreement of the 520JV
requires joint decisions from all members on all significant operating and
capital decisions including sale of the property, refinancing of the property's
mortgage debt, development and approval of leasing strategy and leasing of
rentable space. As a result of the decision-making participation relative to the
operations of the property, the Company accounts for the 520JV under the equity
method of accounting. In accordance with the equity method of accounting the
Company's proportionate share of the 520JV income was approximately $114,000 and
$106,000 for the three month periods ended March 31, 2004 and 2003,
respectively.

                                       25



As part of the Company's REIT structure it is provided management, leasing and
construction related services through taxable REIT subsidiaries as defined by
the Code. During the three months ended March 31, 2004 and 2003, Reckson
Construction Group, Inc. or its successor, Reckson Construction & Development,
LLC billed approximately $461,000 and $125,000, respectively, of market rate
services and Reckson Management Group, Inc. billed approximately $66,000 and
$71,000, respectively, of market rate management fees to the Remaining Option
Properties.

Reckson Management Group, Inc. leases approximately 26,000 square feet of office
space at a Remaining Option Property located at 225 Broadhollow Road, Melville,
New York for its corporate offices at an annual base rent of approximately
$760,000. The Company had also entered into a short term license agreement at
the property for 6,000 square feet of temporary space which expired in January
2004. Reckson Management Group, Inc. also leases 10,722 square feet of warehouse
space used for equipment, materials and inventory storage at a property owned by
certain members of the Rechler family at an annual base rent of approximately
$75,000.

A company affiliated with an Independent Director of the Company leases 15,566
square feet in a property owned by the Company at an annual base rent of
approximately $447,000.

During July 1998, the Company formed Metropolitan Partners, LLC ("Metropolitan")
for the purpose of acquiring Class A office properties in New York City.
Currently the Company owns, through Metropolitan and the Operating Partnership,
six Class A office properties, located in the New York City borough of
Manhattan, aggregating approximately 4.5 million square feet.

During September 2000, the Company formed a joint venture (the "Tri-State JV")
with Teachers Insurance and Annuity Association ("TIAA") and contributed nine
Class A suburban office properties aggregating approximately 1.5 million square
feet to the Tri-State JV for a 51% majority ownership interest. TIAA contributed
approximately $136 million for a 49% interest in the Tri-State JV which was then
distributed to the Company. In August 2003, the Company acquired TIAA's 49%
interest in the property located at 275 Broadhollow Road, Melville, NY, for
approximately $12.4 million. In addition, as previously discussed, the Tri-State
JV sold a 175,000 square foot office building located on Long Island for
approximately $30 million during April 2004. Net proceeds from this sale were
distributed to the members of the Tri-State JV. As a result of these
transactions, the Tri-State JV owns seven Class A suburban office properties
aggregating approximately 1.2 million square feet. The Company is responsible
for managing the day-to-day operations and business affairs of the Tri-State JV
and has substantial rights in making decisions affecting the properties such as
leasing, marketing and financing. The minority member has certain rights
primarily intended to protect its investment. For purposes of its financial
statements the Company consolidates the Tri-State JV.

On December 21, 2001, the Company formed a joint venture with the New York State
Teachers' Retirement Systems ("NYSTRS") (the "919JV") whereby NYSTRS acquired a
49% indirect interest in the property located at 919 Third Avenue, New York, NY
for $220.5 million which included $122.1 million of its proportionate share of
secured mortgage debt and approximately $98.4 million of cash which was then
distributed to the Company. The Company is responsible for managing the
day-to-day operations and business affairs of the 919JV and has substantial
rights in making decisions affecting the property such as developing a budget,
leasing and marketing. The minority member has certain rights primarily intended
to protect its investment. For purposes of its financial statements the Company
consolidates the 919JV.

The total market capitalization of the Company at March 31, 2004 was
approximately $3.7 billion. The Company's total market capitalization is based
on the sum of (i) the market value of the Company's common stock and OP Units
(assuming conversion) of $28.14 per share/unit (based on the closing price of
the Company's common stock on March 31, 2004), (ii) the liquidation preference
value of the Company's Series A preferred stock of $25 per share, (iii) the
liquidation preference value of the Operating Partnership's preferred units of
$1,000 per unit and (iv) the approximately $1.5 billion (including its share of
consolidated joint venture debt and net of minority partners' interests share of
consolidated joint venture debt) of debt outstanding at March 31, 2004. As a
result, the Company's total debt to total market capitalization ratio at March
31, 2004 equaled approximately 40.0%.

                                       26



During 1997, the Company formed FrontLine Capital Group, formerly Reckson
Service Industries, Inc. ("FrontLine") and Reckson Strategic Venture Partners,
LLC ("RSVP"). RSVP is a real estate venture capital fund, which invested
primarily in real estate and real estate, operating companies outside the
Company's core office and industrial / R&D focus and whose common equity is held
indirectly by FrontLine. In connection with the formation and spin-off of
FrontLine, the Operating Partnership established an unsecured credit facility
with FrontLine (the "FrontLine Facility") in the amount of $100 million for
FrontLine to use in its investment activities, operations and other general
corporate purposes. The Company has advanced approximately $93.4 million under
the FrontLine Facility. The Operating Partnership also approved the funding of
investments of up to $100 million relating to RSVP (the "RSVP Commitment"),
through RSVP-controlled joint ventures (for REIT-qualified investments) or
advances made to FrontLine under an unsecured loan facility (the "RSVP
Facility") having terms similar to the FrontLine Facility (advances made under
the RSVP Facility and the FrontLine Facility hereafter, the "FrontLine Loans").
During March 2001, the Company increased the RSVP Commitment to $110 million and
as of March 31, 2004, approximately $109.1 million had been funded through the
RSVP Commitment, of which $59.8 million represents investments by the Company in
RSVP-controlled (REIT-qualified) joint ventures and $49.3 million represents
loans made to FrontLine under the RSVP Facility. As of March 31, 2004, interest
accrued (net of reserves) under the FrontLine Facility and the RSVP Facility was
approximately $19.6 million.

In September 2003, RSVP completed the restructuring of its capital structure. In
connection with the restructuring, RSVP redeemed the interest of the preferred
equity holders of RSVP for an aggregate of $137 million in cash and the transfer
to the preferred equity holders of the assets that comprised RSVP's parking
investments valued at approximately $28.5 million. As a result of this
transaction amounts formerly invested in the privatization, parking and medical
office platforms have been reinvested as part of the buyout transaction.

A committee of the Board of Directors, comprised solely of independent
directors, considers any actions to be taken by the Company in connection with
the FrontLine Loans and its investments in joint ventures with RSVP. During the
third quarter of 2001, the Company noted a significant deterioration in
FrontLine's operations and financial condition and, based on its assessment of
value and recoverability and considering the findings and recommendations of the
committee and its financial advisor, the Company recorded a $163 million
valuation reserve charge, inclusive of anticipated costs, in its consolidated
statements of operations relating to its investments in the FrontLine Loans and
joint ventures with RSVP. The Company has discontinued the accrual of interest
income with respect to the FrontLine Loans. The Company has also reserved
against its share of GAAP equity in earnings from the RSVP controlled joint
ventures funded through the RSVP Commitment until such income is realized
through cash distributions.

At December 31, 2001, the Company, pursuant to Section 166 of the Code, charged
off for tax purposes $70 million of the aforementioned reserve directly related
to the FrontLine Facility, including accrued interest. On February 14, 2002, the
Company charged off for tax purposes an additional $38 million of the reserve
directly related to the FrontLine Facility, including accrued interest, and $47
million of the reserve directly related to the RSVP Facility, including accrued
interest.

FrontLine is in default under the FrontLine Loans from the Operating Partnership
and on June 12, 2002, filed a voluntary petition for relief under Chapter 11 of
the United States Bankruptcy Code.

                                       27



RSVP also restructured its management arrangements whereby a management company
formed by its former managing directors has been retained to manage RSVP
pursuant to a management agreement and the employment contracts of the managing
directors with RSVP have been terminated. The management agreement provides for
an annual base management fee, and disposition fees equal to 2% of the net
proceeds received by RSVP on asset sales. (The base management fee and
disposition fees are subject to a maximum over the term of the agreement of $7.5
million.) In addition, the managing directors retained a one-third residual
interest in RSVP's assets which is subordinated to the distribution of an
aggregate amount of $75 million to RSVP and/or the Company in respect of its
joint ventures with RSVP. The management agreement has a three-year term,
subject to early termination in the event of the disposition of all of the
assets of RSVP.

In connection with the restructuring, RSVP and certain of its affiliates
obtained a $60 million secured loan. In connection with this loan, the Operating
Partnership agreed to indemnify the lender in respect of any environmental
liabilities incurred with regard to RSVP's remaining assets in which the
Operating Partnership has a joint venture interest (primarily certain student
housing assets held by RSVP) and guaranteed the obligation of an affiliate of
RSVP to the lender in an amount up to $6 million plus collection costs for any
losses incurred by the lender as a result of certain acts of malfeasance on the
part of RSVP and/or its affiliates. The loan is scheduled to mature in 2006 and
is expected to be repaid from proceeds of assets sales by RSVP.

In April 2004, American Campus Communities, Inc. ("ACC"), a student housing
company owned by RSVP and a joint venture between RSVP and a subsidiary of the
Operating Partnership, filed a registration statement on Form S-11 with the
Securities and Exchange Commission in connection with a proposed initial public
offering ("IPO") of its common stock. RSVP and the joint venture between RSVP
and a subsidiary of the Operating Partnership plan to liquidate the ownership
position in ACC in connection with the IPO transaction.

As a result of the foregoing, the net carrying value of the Company's
investments in the FrontLine Loans and joint venture investments with RSVP,
inclusive of the Company's share of previously accrued GAAP equity in earnings
on those investments, is approximately $65 million, which was reassessed with no
change by management as of March 31, 2004. Such amount has been reflected in
investments in service companies and affiliate loans and joint ventures on the

The Company's property operating revenues, which include base rents and tenant
escalations and reimbursements ("Property Operating Revenues") increased by
$20.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2004 as compared to the 2003
period. Property Operating Revenues increased $11.8 million attributable to
lease up of newly developed or redeveloped properties and from the acquisitions
of 1185 Avenue of the Americas in January 2004 and 1055 Washington Avenue in
August 2003. In addition, Property Operating Revenues increased by $1.4 million
from built-in rent increases for existing tenants in our "same store" properties
and by a $4.1 million increase in termination fees. Property Operating Revenues
also increased by approximately $1.4 million due to the reduction in tenant
receivable write-offs and to a weighted average occupancy increase in our "same
store" properties. Tenant escalations and reimbursements increased $4.1 million
attributable to increased operating expense and real estate tax costs being
passed through to tenants as base years for 2002 take effect. These increases
were offset by the allocation of $1.4 million of revenue attributable to
discontinued operations in accordance with FASB Statement No. 144, $300,000 in
same space rental rate decreases and $700,000 of free rent concessions.

         The Company's property operating expenses, real estate taxes and ground
rents ("Property Expenses") increased by approximately $8.1 million for the
three months ended March 31, 2004 as compared to the 2003 period. The increase
is primarily attributable the Company's acquisitions of 1185 Avenue of the
Americas and 1055 Washington Avenue amounting to approximately $5.2 million. The
remaining increase in Property Expenses is attributable to approximately $1.0
million from newly developed or redeveloped assets and $1.5 million in real
estate taxes and $400,000 in operating expenses from the Company's "same store"
properties. Increases in real estate taxes is attributable to the significant
increases levied by certain municipalities, particularly in New York City and
Nassau County, New York which have experienced fiscal budget issues.

Investment and other income decreased by $1.6 million or 22.0 % from the three
month period ended March 31, 2003 as compared to the same quarterly period of
2004. The decrease is primarily attributable to a decrease in the gain
recognized on the Company's land sale and build-to-suit transaction of
approximately $1.2 million.

Interest expense increased by $5.6 million or 27.7 % from the three month period
ended March 31, 2003 as compared to the same quarterly period of 2004. The
increase is primarily attributable to the net increase of $50 million in the
Operating Partnership's senior unsecured notes which resulted in approximately
$1.2 million of additional interest expense and approximately $ 3.1 million of
interest expense incurred on the mortgage debt on 1185 Avenue of the Americas
which was acquired in January 2004. In addition, during the three month period
ended March 31, 2003, the Company allocated approximately $2.8 million of its
interest expense to discontinued operations in accordance with FASB Statement
No. 144 with no such allocation in the current period. This allocation resulted
in an additional increase in interest expense from continuing operations. These
increases were offset by decreases in interest expense of approximately $317,000
incurred under the Company's "same store" mortgage portfolio, in capitalized
interest expense of approximately $218,000 attributable to a decrease in
development projects and in interest expense of approximately $1.0 million
incurred under the Company's unsecured credit facility as a result of a decrease
in the weighted average balance outstanding. The weighted average balance
outstanding under the Company's unsecured credit facility was $119.7 million for
the three months ended March 31, 2004 as compared to $285.6 million for the
three months ended March 31, 2003.

Marketing, general and administrative expenses decreased by $498,000 or 6.6%
from the three month period ended March 31, 2003 as compared to the same
quarterly period of 2004. This overall decrease is attributable to the
efficiencies the Company achieved as a result of its November 2003 restructuring
and related termination of certain employees and the settlement of the
employment contracts of certain former executive officers of the Company.

                                       29



LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Historically, rental revenue has been the principal source of funds to pay
operating expenses, debt service and non-incremental capital expenditures,
excluding incremental capital expenditures of the Company. The Company expects
to meet its short-term liquidity requirements generally through its net cash
provided by operating activities along with its unsecured credit facility
described below. The credit facility contains several financial covenants with
which the Company must be in compliance in order to borrow funds thereunder.
During recent quarterly periods, the Company has incurred significant leasing
costs as a result of increased market demands from tenants and high levels of
leasing transactions that result from the re-tenanting of scheduled expirations
or early terminations of leases. The Company is currently experiencing high
tenanting costs including tenant improvement costs, leasing commissions and free
rent in all of its markets. For the three month period ended March 31, 2004, the
Company paid $10.1 million for tenanting costs including tenant improvement
costs and leasing commissions. For the year ended December 31, 2003, the Company
paid $50.3 million for such tenanting costs. As a result of these and / or other
operating factors, the Company's cash flow from operating activities was not
sufficient to pay 100% of the dividends paid on its common stock. To meet the
short-term funding requirements relating to these leasing costs, the Company has
used proceeds of property sales or borrowings under its credit facility. Based
on the Company's forecasted leasing for 2004 it anticipates that it will incur
similar shortfalls. The Company currently intends to fund any shortfalls with
proceeds from non-income producing asset sales or borrowings under its credit
facility. The Company periodically reviews its dividend policy to determine the
appropriateness of the Company's dividend rate relative to the Company's cash
flows. The Company adjusts its dividend rate based on forecasted increases and
decreases in its cash flow as well as required distributions of taxable income
to maintain REIT status. There can be no assurance that the Company will
maintain the current quarterly distribution level on its common stock. The
Company expects to meet certain of its financing requirements through long-term
secured and unsecured borrowings and the issuance of debt and equity securities
of the Company. There can be no assurance that there will be adequate demand for
the Company's equity at the time or at the price in which the Company desires to
raise capital through the sale of additional equity. Similarly, there can be no
assurance that the Company will be able to access the unsecured debt markets at
the time when the Company desires to sell its unsecured notes. In addition, when
valuations for commercial real estate properties are high, the Company will seek
to sell certain land inventory to realize value and profit created. The Company
will then seek opportunities to reinvest the capital realized from these
dispositions back into value-added assets in the Company's core Tri-State Area
markets. However, there can be no assurances that the Company will be able to
identify such opportunities that meet the Company's underwriting criteria. The
Company will refinance existing mortgage indebtedness, senior unsecured notes or
indebtedness under its credit facility at maturity or retire such debt through
the issuance of additional debt securities or additional equity securities. The
Company anticipates that the current balance of cash and cash equivalents and
cash flows from operating activities, together with cash available from
borrowings, equity offerings and proceeds from sales of land and non-income
producing assets, will be adequate to meet the capital and liquidity
requirements of the Company in both the short and long-term. The Company's
senior unsecured debt is currently rated "BBB-" by Fitch, "BBB-" by Standard &
Poors and "Ba1" by Moody's. The rating agencies review the ratings assigned to
an issuer such as the Company on an ongoing basis. Negative changes in the
Company's ratings would result in increases in the Company's borrowing costs,
including borrowings under the Company's unsecured credit facility.

As a result of current economic conditions, certain tenants have either not
renewed their leases upon expiration or have paid the Company to terminate their
leases. In addition, a number of U.S. companies have filed for protection under
federal bankruptcy laws. Certain of these companies are tenants of the Company.
The Company is subject to the risk that other companies that are tenants of the
Company may file for bankruptcy protection. This may have an adverse impact on
the financial results and condition of the Company. In addition, vacancy rates
in our markets are at the higher end of the range of historical cycles and in
some instances our asking rents in our markets have trended lower and landlords
are being required to grant greater concessions such as free rent and tenant
improvements. Our markets have also been experiencing higher real estate taxes
and utility rates. Additionally, the Company carries comprehensive liability,
fire, extended coverage and rental loss insurance on all of its properties. Six
of the Company's properties are located in New York City. As a result of the
events of September 11, 2001, insurance companies are limiting coverage for acts
of terrorism in "all risk" policies. In November 2002, the Terrorism Risk
Insurance Act of 2002 was signed into law, which, among other things, requires
insurance companies to offer coverage for losses resulting from defined "acts of
terrorism" through 2004. The Company's current insurance coverage provides for
full replacement cost of its properties, (other than its two largest
properties), including for acts of terrorism up to $500 million on a per
occurrence basis. The two largest properties are covered for up to $200 million
on such policies and are covered under separate policies, which include coverage
for acts of terrorism, up to the estimated replacement cost for these
properties.

The impact of the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, in New York City may
adversely affect the value of the Company's New York City properties and its
ability to generate cash flow. There may be a decrease in demand for office
space in metropolitan areas that are considered at risk for future terrorist
attacks, and this decrease may reduce the Company's revenues from property
rentals.

In order to qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, the Company is
required to make distributions to its stockholders of at least 90% of REIT
taxable income. The Company expects to use its cash flow from operating
activities for distributions to stockholders and for payment of recurring,
non-incremental revenue-generating expenditures. The Company intends to invest
amounts accumulated for distribution in short-term liquid investments.

                                       30



The Company currently has a $500 million unsecured revolving credit facility
(the "Credit Facility") from JPMorgan Chase Bank, as administrative agent, Wells
Fargo Bank, National Association, as syndication agent, and Citicorp North
America, Inc. and Wachovia Bank, National Association, as co-documentation
agents. The Credit Facility matures in December 2005, contains options for a
one-year extension subject to a fee of 25 basis points and, upon receiving
additional lender commitments, increasing the maximum revolving credit amount to
$750 million. As of March 31, 2004, based on a pricing grid of the Operating
Partnership's unsecured debt ratings, borrowings under the Credit Facility were
priced off LIBOR plus 90 basis points and the Credit Facility carried a facility
fee of 20 basis points per annum. In the event of a change in the Operating
Partnership's unsecured credit ratings the interest rates and facility fee are
subject to change. At March 31, 2004, the outstanding borrowings under the
Credit Facility aggregated $90 million and carried a weighted average interest
rate of 1.99%.

The Company utilizes the Credit Facility primarily to finance real estate
investments, fund its real estate development activities and for working capital
purposes. At March 31, 2004, the Company had availability under the Credit
Facility to borrow an additional $410 million, subject to compliance with
certain financial covenants.

In connection with the acquisition of certain properties, contributing partners
of such properties have provided guarantees on indebteness of the Company. As a
result, the Company maintains certain outstanding balances on its Credit
Facility.

During the quarter ended March 31, 2004, the Operating Partnership issued $150
million of seven-year 5.15% (5.196% effective rate) senior unsecured notes. The
Company also completed an equity offering of 5.5 million shares of its common
stock raising approximately $149.5 million, net of an underwriting discount, or
$27.18 per share.

Prior to the issuance of the senior unsecured notes the Company entered into
several anticipatory interest rate hedge instruments to protect itself against
potentially rising interest rates. At the time the senior unsecured notes were
issued the Company incurred a net cost of approximately $980,000 to settle these
instruments. Such costs will be amortized over the term of the senior unsecured
notes.

Net proceeds received from these transactions were used to repay outstanding
borrowings under the Credit Facility, repay $100 million of the Operating
Partnership's 7.4% senior unsecured notes and to invest in short-term liquid
investments.

The Company continues to seek opportunities to acquire real estate assets in its
markets. The Company has historically sought to acquire properties where it
could use its real estate expertise to create additional value subsequent to
acquisition. As a result of increased market values for the Company's commercial
real estate assets, the Company has sold certain non-core assets or interests in
assets where significant value has been created. During 2003, the Company has
sold assets or interests in assets with aggregate sales prices of approximately
$350.6 million. In addition, during the three months ended March 31, 2004, the
Company has sold assets or interests in assets with aggregate sales prices of
approximately $20.2 million. The Company has used the proceeds from these sales
primarily to pay down borrowings under the Credit Facility, for general
corporate purposes and to invest in short-term liquid investments until such
time as alternative real estate investments can be made.

An OP Unit and a share of common stock have essentially the same economic
characteristics as they effectively share equally in the net income or loss and
distributions of the Operating Partnership. Subject to certain holding periods,
OP Units may either be redeemed for cash or, at the election of the Company,
exchanged for shares of common stock on a one-for-one basis. The OP Units
currently receive a quarterly distribution of $.4246 per unit. As of March 31,
2004, the Operating Partnership had issued and outstanding 3,084,708 Class A OP
Units and 465,845 Class C OP Units. The Class C OP Units were issued in August
2003 in connection with the contribution of real property to the Operating
Partnership and currently receive a quarterly distribution of $.4664 per unit.

On November 25, 2003, the Company exchanged all of its 9,915,313 outstanding
shares of Class B common stock for an equal number of shares of its common
stock. The Board of Directors declared a final cash dividend on the Company's
Class B common stock to holders of record on November 25, 2003 in the amount of
$.1758 per share which was paid on January 12, 2004. This payment covered the
period from November 1, 2003 through November 25, 2003 and was based on the
previous quarterly Class B common stock dividend rate of $.6471 per share. In
order to align the regular quarterly dividend payment schedule of the former
holders of Class B common stock with the schedule of the holders of common stock
for periods subsequent to the exchange date for the Class B common stock, the
Board of Directors also declared a cash dividend with regard to the common stock
to holders of record on October 14, 2003 in the amount of $.2585 per share which
was paid on January 12, 2004. This payment covered the period from October 1,
2003 through November 25, 2003 and was based on the current quarterly common
stock dividend rate of $.4246 per share. As a result, the Company declared
dividends through November 25, 2003 to all holders of common stock and Class B
common stock. The Board of Directors also declared the common stock cash
dividend for the portion of the fourth quarter subsequent to November 25, 2003.
The holders of record of common stock on January 2, 2004, giving effect to the
exchange transaction, received a dividend on the common stock in the amount of
$.1661 per share on January 12, 2004. This payment covered the period from
November 26, 2003 through December 31, 2003 and was based on the current
quarterly common stock dividend rate of $.4246 per share.

During the three month period ended March 31, 2004, approximately 630,000 shares
of the Company's common stock was issued in connection with the exercise of
outstanding options to purchase stock under its stock option plans resulting in
proceeds to the Company of approximately $13.3 million.

                                       31



The Board of Directors of the Company authorized the purchase of up to five
million shares of the Company's common stock. Transactions conducted on the New
York Stock Exchange will be effected in accordance with the safe harbor
provisions of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and may be terminated by the
Company at any time. Since the Board's authorization, the Company has purchased
3,318,600 shares of its common stock for an aggregate purchase price of
approximately $71.3 million. No purchases were made during the three months
ended March 31, 2004.

The Board of Directors of the Company also formed a pricing committee to
consider purchases of up to $75 million of the Company's outstanding preferred
securities.

On March 31, 2004, the Company had issued and outstanding 8,834,500 shares of
7.625% Series A Convertible Cumulative Preferred Stock (the "Series A preferred
stock"). The Series A preferred stock is redeemable by the Company on or after
April 13, 2004 at a price of approximately $25.7625 per share with such price
decreasing, at annual intervals, to $25.00 per share on April 13, 2008. In
addition, the Series A preferred stock, at the option of the holder, is
convertible at any time into the Company's common stock at a price of $28.51
per share.

On January 1, 2004, the Company had issued and outstanding two million shares of
Series B Convertible Cumulative Preferred Stock (the "Series B preferred
stock"). The Series B preferred stock was redeemable by the Company as follows:
(i) on or after June 3, 2003 to and including June 2, 2004, at $25.50 per share
and (ii) on or after June 3, 2004 and thereafter, at $25.00 per share. The
Series B preferred stock, at the option of the holder, was convertible at any
time into the Company's common stock at a price of $26.05 per share. On January
16, 2004, the Company exercised its option to redeem the two million shares of
outstanding Series B preferred stock for approximately 1,958,000 shares of its
common stock. As a result of this redemption, based on current common dividend
rates, annual net dividends will decrease by approximately $1.1 million.

As of March 31, 2004, the Operating Partnership had issued and outstanding
approximately 19,662 preferred units of limited partnership interest with a
liquidation preference value of $1,000 per unit and a current annualized
distribution of $55.60 per unit. These units were issued in 1998 in connection
with the contribution of real property to the Operating Partnership. On April
12, 2004, the holder of these units gave notice to the Operating Partnership to
convert approximately 3,081 of these units. The Operating Partnership has
elected to redeem these units for approximately $3.1 million, including accrued
and unpaid dividends which will be applied to amounts owed from the unit holder
under the Other Notes.

Effective January 1, 2002 the Company has elected to follow FASB Statement No.
123, "Accounting for Stock Based Compensation". Statement No.123 requires the
use of option valuation models which determine the fair value of the option on
the date of the grant. All future employee stock option grants will be expensed
over the options' vesting periods based on the fair value at the date of the
grant in accordance with Statement No. 123. The Company expects minimal
financial impact from the adoption of Statement No. 123. To determine the fair
value of the stock options granted, the Company uses a Black-Scholes option
pricing model. Prior to the adoption of Statement No. 123, the Company had
applied Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 and related interpretations
in accounting for its stock option plans and reported pro forma disclosures in
its Form 10-K filings by estimating the fair value of options issued and the
related expense in accordance with Statement No. 123. During each of the three
month periods ended March 31, 2004 and 2003, the Company recorded approximately
$1,300 of expense related to the fair value of stock options issued. Such
amounts have been included in marketing, general and administrative expenses in
the Company's consolidated statements of income.

The Company's indebtedness at March 31, 2004 totaled approximately $1.5 billion
(including its share of consolidated joint venture debt and net of minority
partners' interests share of consolidated joint venture debt) and was comprised
of $90 million outstanding under the Credit Facility, approximately $549.1
million of senior unsecured notes and approximately $836.1 million of mortgage
indebtedness. Based on the Company's total market capitalization of
approximately $3.7 billion at March 31, 2004 (calculated based on the sum of (i)
the market value of the Company's common stock and OP Units, assuming
conversion, (ii) the liquidation preference value of the Company's preferred
stock, (iii) the liquidation preference value of the Operating Partnership's
preferred units and (iv) the $1.5 billion of debt), the Company's debt
represented approximately 40.0% of its total market capitalization.

(1)   Scheduled principal amortization payments.
(2)   Principal payments due at maturity.
(3)   In addition, the Company has a 60% interest in an unconsolidated joint
      venture property. The Company's share of the mortgage debt at March 31,
      2004 is approximately $7.8 million. This mortgage note bears interest at
      8.85% per annum and matures on September 1, 2005 at which time the
      Company's share of the mortgage debt will be approximately $6.9 million.
(4)   The Company leases, pursuant to noncancellable operating leases, the land
      on which twelve of its buildings were constructed. The leases, certain of
      which contain renewal options at the direction of the Company, expire
      between 2006 and 2090. The leases either contain provisions for scheduled
      increases in the minimum rent at specified intervals or for adjustments to
      rent based upon the fair market value of the underlying land or other
      indices at specified intervals. Minimum ground rent is recognized on a
      straight-line basis over the terms of the leases.

Certain of the mortgage notes payable are guaranteed by certain limited partners
in the Operating Partnership and/or the Company. In addition, consistent with
customary practices in non-recourse lending, certain non-recourse mortgages may
be recourse to the Company under certain limited circumstances including
environmental issues and breaches of material representations.

During August 2004 the mortgage note payable and mezzanine debt, aggregating
$250 million, on the property located at 1185 Avenue of the Americas, New York,
NY, matures. On March 19, 2004, the Company entered into two anticipatory
interest rate hedge instruments which are scheduled to coincide with an August
2004 debt maturity, totaling approximately $100 million, to protect itself
against potentially rising interest rates. At March 31, 2004, the fair value of
these instruments reasonably approximate their carrying value.

At March 31, 2004, the Company had approximately $950,000 in outstanding undrawn
standby letters of credit issued under the Credit Facility. In addition,
approximately $43.8 million, or 4.5%, of the Company's mortgage debt is recourse
to the Company.

Other Matters

Seven of the Company's office properties which were acquired by the issuance of
OP Units are subject to agreements limiting the Company's ability to transfer
them prior to agreed upon dates without the consent of the limited partner who
transferred the respective property to the Company. In the event the Company
transfers any of these properties prior to the expiration of these limitations,
the Company may be required to make a payment relating to taxes incurred by the
limited partner. These limitations expire between 2007 and 2013.

Three of the Company's office properties are held in joint ventures which
contain certain limitations on transfer. These limitations include requiring the
consent of the joint venture partner to transfer a property prior to various
specified dates, rights of first offer, and buy / sell provisions.

With the recent appointment of Messrs. Crocker, Steinberg, Ruffle and Ms. McCaul
as additional independent directors and the retirement of Mr. Kevenides, the
Company's Board of Directors currently consists of nine independent directors
and two insiders. Mr. Peter Quick serves as the Lead Director of the Board. In
addition, each of the Audit, Compensation and Nominating and Governance
Committees is comprised solely of independent directors.

In May 2003, the Company revised its policy with respect to compensation of its
independent directors to provide that a substantial portion of the independent
director's compensation shall be in the form of common stock of the Company.
Such common stock may not be sold until such time as the director is no longer a
member of the Company's Board.

Recently, the Company has taken certain additional actions to enhance its
corporate governance policies. These actions include opting out of the Maryland
Business Combination Statute, proposing to de-stagger the Board of Directors to
provide that each director is subject to election by shareholders on an annual
basis and proposing that the Company modify its "five or fewer" limitation on
the ownership of its common stock so that such limitation may only be used to
protect the Company's REIT status and not for anti-takeover purposes.

The Company has also adopted a policy which requires that each independent
director acquire $100,000 of common stock of the Company and a policy which
requires that at least one independent director be rotated off the Board every
three years.

The Company had historically structured long term incentive programs ("LTIP")
using restricted stock and stock loans. In July 2002, as a result of certain
provisions of the Sarbanes Oxley legislation, the Company discontinued the use
of stock loans in its LTIP. In connection with LTIP grants made prior to the
enactment of the Sarbanes Oxley legislation the Company made stock loans to
certain executive and senior officers to purchase 1,372,393 shares of its common
stock at market prices ranging from $18.44 per share to $27.13 per share. The
stock loans were set to bear interest at the mid-term Applicable Federal Rate
and were secured by the shares purchased. Such stock loans (including accrued
interest) were scheduled to vest and be ratably forgiven each year on the
anniversary of the grant date based upon vesting periods ranging from four to
ten years based on continued service and in part on attaining certain annual
performance measures. These stock loans had an initial aggregate weighted
average vesting period of approximately nine years. As of March 31, 2004, and
giving effect to the settlement of the employment contracts of certain former
executive officers, there remains 233,143 shares of common stock subject to the
original stock loans which are anticipated to vest between 2004 and 2011.
Approximately $308,000 and $1.1 million of compensation expense was recorded for
the three month periods ended March 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively, related to
these LTIP. Such amounts have been included in marketing, general and
administrative expenses on the Company's consolidated statements of income.

The outstanding stock loan balances due from executive and senior officers
aggregated approximately $4.9 million at March 31, 2004, and have been included
as a reduction of additional paid in capital on the Company's consolidated
balance sheets. Other outstanding loans to executive and senior officers at
March 31, 2004 amounted to approximately $2.3 million primarily related to tax
payment advances on stock compensation awards and life insurance contracts made
to certain executive and non-executive officers.

In November 2002 and March 2003 an award of rights was granted to certain
executive officers of the Company (the "2002 Rights" and "2003 Rights",
respectively, and collectively, the "Rights"). Each Right represents the right
to receive, upon vesting, one share of Class A common stock if shares are then
available for grant under one of the Company's stock option plans or, if shares
are not so available, an amount of cash equivalent to the value of such stock on
the vesting date. The 2002 Rights will vest in four equal annual installments
beginning on November 14, 2003 (and shall be fully vested on November 14, 2006).
The 2003 Rights will be earned as of March 13, 2005 and will vest in three equal
annual installments beginning on March 13, 2005 (and shall be fully vested on
March 13, 2007). Dividends on the shares will be held by the Company until such
shares become vested, and will be distributed thereafter to the applicable
officer. The 2002 Rights also entitle the holder thereof to cash payments in
respect of taxes payable by the holder resulting from the Rights. The 2002
Rights aggregate 190,524 shares of the Company's common stock and the 2003
Rights aggregate 60,760 shares of common stock. As of March 31, 2004, and giving
effect to the settlement of the employment contracts of certain former executive
officers, there remains 47,126 shares of common stock related to the 2002 Rights
and 26,040 shares of common stock related to the 2003 Rights. During the three
month periods ended March 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively, the Company recorded
approximately $101,000 and $216,000 of compensation expense related to the
Rights. Such amounts have been included in marketing, general and administrative
expenses on the Company's consolidated statements of income.

In March 2003, the Company established a new LTIP for its executive and senior
officers. The four-year plan has a core award, which provides for annual stock
based compensation based upon continued service and in part based on attaining
certain annual performance measures. The plan also has a special outperformance
award, which provides for compensation to be earned at the end of a four-year
period if the Company attains certain four-year cumulative performance measures.
Amounts earned under the special outperformance award may be paid in cash or
stock at the discretion of the Compensation Committee of the Board. Performance
measures are based on total shareholder returns on a relative and absolute
basis. On March 13, 2003, the Company made available 1,106,324 shares of its
common stock under its existing stock option plans in connection with the core
award of this LTIP for ten of its executive and senior officers. On March 13,
2004, the Company met its annual performance measure with respect to the prior
annual period. As a result, the Company issued to the participants approximately
207,000 shares of its common stock related to the core component of this LTIP.
As of March 31, 2004, and giving effect to the settlement of the employment
contracts of certain former executive officers, there remains 620,832 shares of
common stock reserved for future issuance under the core award of this LTIP.
With respect to the core award of this LTIP, the Company recorded approximately
$699,000 and $268,000 of compensation expense for the three month periods ended
March 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively. Such amounts have been included in
marketing, general and administrative expenses on the Company's consolidated
statements of income. Further, no provision will be made for the special
outperformance award of this LTIP until such time as achieving the requisite
performance measures is determined to be probable.

Under various Federal, state and local laws, ordinances and regulations, an
owner of real estate is liable for the costs of removal or remediation of
certain hazardous or toxic substances on or in such property. These laws often
impose such liability without regard to whether the owner knew of, or was
responsible for, the presence of such hazardous or toxic substances. The cost of
any required remediation and the owner's liability therefor as to any property
is generally not limited under such enactments and could exceed the value of the
property and/or the aggregate assets of the owner. The presence of such
substances, or the failure to properly remediate such substances, may adversely
affect the owner's ability to sell or rent such property or to borrow using such
property as collateral. Persons who arrange for the disposal or treatment of
hazardous or toxic substances may also be liable for the costs of removal or
remediation of such substances at a disposal or treatment facility, whether or
not such facility is owned or operated by such person. Certain environmental
laws govern the removal, encapsulation or disturbance of asbestos-containing
materials ("ACMs") when such materials are in poor condition, or in the event of
renovation or demolition. Such laws impose liability for release of ACMs into
the air and third parties may seek recovery from owners or operators of real
properties for personal injury associated with ACMs. In connection with the
ownership (direct or indirect), operation, management and development of real
properties, the Company may be considered an owner or operator of such
properties or as having arranged for the disposal or treatment of hazardous or
toxic substances and, therefore, potentially liable for removal or remediation
costs, as well as certain other related costs, including governmental fines and
injuries to persons and property.

All of the Company's office and industrial / R&D properties have been subjected
to a Phase I or similar environmental audit after April 1, 1994 (which involved
general inspections without soil sampling, ground water analysis or radon
testing and, for the Company's properties constructed in 1978 or earlier, survey
inspections to ascertain the existence of ACMs were conducted) completed by
independent environmental consultant companies (except for 35 Pinelawn Road
which was originally developed by Reckson and subjected to a Phase 1 in April
1992). These environmental audits have not revealed any environmental liability
that would have a material adverse effect on the Company's business.

Soil, sediment and groundwater contamination, consisting of volatile organic
compounds ("VOCs") and metals, has been identified at the property at 32 Windsor
Place, Central Islip, New York. The contamination is associated with industrial
activities conducted by a tenant at the property over a number of years. The
contamination, which was identified through an environmental investigation
conducted on behalf of the Company, has been reported to the New York State
Department of Environmental Conservation. The Company has notified the tenant of
the findings and has demanded that the tenant take appropriate actions to fully
investigate and remediate the contamination. Under applicable environmental
laws, both the tenant and the Company are liable for the cost of investigation
and remediation. The Company does not believe that the cost of investigation and
remediation will be material and the Company has recourse against the tenant.
However, there can be no assurance that the Company will not incur liability
that would have a material adverse effect on the Company's business.

In March 2004, the Company received notification from the Internal Revenue
Service indicating that they have selected the 2001 tax return of the Operating
Partnership for examination. The examination process is currently on going.

FUNDS FROM OPERATIONS

The Company believes that Funds from Operations ("FFO") is a widely recognized
and appropriate measure of performance of an equity REIT. Although FFO is a
non-GAAP financial measure, the Company believes it provides useful information
to shareholders, potential investors and management. The Company computes FFO in
accordance with the standards established by the National Association of Real
Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT"). FFO is defined by NAREIT as net income or
loss, excluding gains or losses from sales of depreciable properties plus real
estate depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated
partnerships and joint ventures. FFO does not represent cash generated from
operating activities in accordance with GAAP and is not indicative of cash
available to fund cash needs. FFO should not be considered as an alternative to
net income as an indicator of the Company's operating performance or as an
alternative to cash flow as a measure of liquidity.

Since all companies and analysts do not calculate FFO in a similar fashion, the
Company's calculation of FFO presented herein may not be comparable to similarly
titled measures as reported by other companies.

The following table presents the Company's FFO calculation (unaudited and in
thousands):

INFLATION

The office leases generally provide for fixed base rent increases or indexed
escalations. In addition, the office leases provide for separate escalations of
real estate taxes, operating expenses and electric costs over a base amount. The
industrial / R&D leases generally provide for fixed base rent increases, direct
pass through of certain operating expenses and separate real estate tax
escalations over a base amount. The Company believes that inflationary increases
in expenses will be offset by contractual rent increases and expense escalations
described above. As a result of the impact of the events of September 11, 2001,
the Company has realized increased insurance costs, particularly relating to
property and terrorism insurance, and security costs. The Company has included
these costs as part of its escalatable expenses. The Company has billed these
escalatable expense items to its tenants consistent with the terms of the
underlying leases and believes they are collectible. To the extent the Company's
properties contain vacant space, the Company will bear such inflationary
increases in expenses.

The Credit Facility, $250 million of the Company's mortgage notes payable and
the Mezz Note bear interest at variable rates, which will be influenced by
changes in short-term interest rates, and are sensitive to inflation.

                                       37



ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The primary market risk facing the Company is interest rate risk on its long
term debt, mortgage notes and notes receivable. The Company will, when
advantageous, hedge its interest rate risk using financial instruments. The
Company is not subject to foreign currency risk.

The Company manages its exposure to interest rate risk on its variable rate
indebtedness by borrowing on a short-term basis under its Credit Facility until
such time as it is able to retire the short-term variable rate debt with either
a long-term fixed rate debt offering, long term mortgage debt, equity offerings
or through sales or partial sales of assets.

The Company will recognize all derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value.
Derivatives that are not hedges will be adjusted to fair value through income.
If a derivative is a hedge, depending on the nature of the hedge, changes in the
fair value of the derivative will either be offset against the change in fair
value of the hedged asset, liability, or firm commitment through earnings, or
recognized in other comprehensive income until the hedged item is recognized in
earnings. The ineffective portion of a derivative's change in fair value will be
immediately recognized in earnings. On March 19, 2004, the Company entered into
two anticipatory interest rate hedge instruments which are scheduled to coincide
with an August 2004 debt maturity, totaling approximately $100 million, to
protect itself against potentially rising interest rates. At March 31, 2004, the
fair value of these instruments reasonably approximate their carrying value.

The fair market value ("FMV") of the Company's long term debt, mortgage notes
and notes receivable is estimated based on discounting future cash flows at
interest rates that management believes reflect the risks associated with long
term debt, mortgage notes and notes receivable of similar risk and duration.

The following table sets forth the Company's long-term debt obligations by
scheduled principal cash flow payments and maturity date, weighted average
interest rates and estimated FMV at March 31, 2004 (dollars in thousands):

(1)      Includes aggregate unamortized issuance discounts of approximately
         $907,000 on certain of the senior unsecured notes which are due at
         maturity.

In addition, a one percent increase in the LIBOR rate would have a $900,000
annual increase in interest expense on the $90 million of variable rate debt due
in 2005. A one percent increase in LIBOR would have no impact to interest
expense on the $250 million of variable rate debt due in 2004, as interest
reported in the current period is calculated using a LIBOR rate in excess of one
percent over the LIBOR rate at March 31, 2004.

ITEM 4.  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that
information required to be disclosed in our filings under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 is reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's
rules and forms. In this regard, the Company has formed a Disclosure Committee
currently comprised of all of the Company's executive officers as well as
certain other employees with knowledge of information that may be considered in
the SEC reporting process. The Committee has responsibility for the development
and assessment of the financial and non-financial information to be included in
the reports filed by the Company with the SEC and assists the Company's Chief
Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer in connection with their
certifications contained in the Company's SEC reports. The Committee meets
regularly and reports to the Audit Committee on a quarterly or more frequent
basis. Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have evaluated,
with the participation of the Company's management, our disclosure controls and
procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form
10-Q. Based upon the evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial
Officer concluded that such disclosure controls and procedures are effective.

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that
occurred during our most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or
are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial
reporting.

The following table sets forth certain information as of March 31, 2004 for each
of the Company's properties (excluding One Orlando Centre located in Orlando,
Florida). This table updates and supercedes a similar table in the Company's
2003 annual report on Form 10-K which, in certain cases, understated the amounts
contained in the column captioned "Annual Base Rent per Leased Square Foot"
which used the "Rental Square Feet" as the denominator to calculate "Annual Base
Rent per Leased Square Foot" rather then the product of "Rentable Square Feet"
and "Percent Leased":

(2)   Represents Base Rent, net of electric reimbursement, of signed leases at
      March 31, 2004 adjusted for scheduled contractual increases during the 12
      months ending March 31, 2005. Total Base Rent for these purposes reflects
      the effect of any lease expirations that occur during the 12-month period
      ending March 31, 2005. Amounts included in rental revenue for financial
      reporting purposes have been determined on a straight-line basis rather
      than on the basis of contractual rent as set forth in the foregoing table.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

A number of shareholder derivative actions have been commenced purportedly on
behalf of the Company against the Board of Directors in the Supreme Court of the
State of New York, County of Nassau (Lowinger v. Rechler et al., Index No. 01
4162/03 (9/16/03)), the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of
Suffolk (Steiner v. Rechler et al., Index No. 03 32545 (10/2/03) and Lighter v.
Rechler et al., Index No. 03 23593 (10/3/03)), the United States District Court,
Eastern District of New York (Tucker v. Rechler et al., Case No. cv 03 4917
(9/26/03), Clinton Charter Township Police and Fire Retirement System v. Rechler
et al., Case No. cv 03 5008 (10/1/03) and Teachers' Retirement System of
Louisiana v. Rechler et al., Case No. cv 03 5178 (10/14/03)) and the Circuit
Court for Baltimore County (Sekuk Global Enterprises Profit Sharing Plan v.
Rechler et al., Civil No. 24-C- 03007496 (10/16/03), Hoffman v. Rechler et al.,
24-C-03-007876 (10/27/03) and Chirko v. Rechler et al., 24-C-03-008010
(10/30/03)), relating to the sale of the Long Island Industrial Portfolio to
certain members of the Rechler family. The complaints allege, among other
things, that the process by which the directors agreed to the transaction was
not sufficiently independent of the Rechler family and did not involve a "
market check" or third party auction process and as a result was not for
adequate consideration. The Plaintiffs seek similar relief, including a
declaration that the directors violated their fiduciary duties, an injunction
against the transaction and damages. The Company believes that complaints are
without merit.

Kramer Levin Naftalis & Frankel commenced an action against Metropolitan 919 3rd
Avenue LLC in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York
(Kramer Levin Naftalis & Frankel LLP v. Metropolitan 919 3rd Avenue LLC, Index
No. 604512/2002 (12/16/02)) relating to alleged overcharges of approximately
$700,000 with respect to its lease at 919 3rd Avenue, New York, NY. Such
overcharges were primarily incurred during the period prior to the Company's
ownership of the property. Subsequent to the filing of the complaint, the
parties agreed to pursue private mediation. As of May 2004, the mediation effort
was discontinued and the parties have resumed litigation. The Company believes
that the complaint is without merit.

Except as provided above, the Company is not presently subject to any material
litigation nor, to the Company's knowledge, is any litigation threatened against
the Company, other than routine actions for negligence or other claims and
administrative proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business, some of
which are expected to be covered by liability insurance and all of which
collectively are not expected to have a material adverse effect on the
liquidity, results of operations or business or financial condition of the
Company.
