ITEM 1. BUSINESS
Post Apartment Homes, L.P. (the "Company") is one of the largest developers and
operators of upscale multifamily apartment communities in the Southeastern
United States. As of June 1, 1996, the Company owned 47 stabilized communities
(the "Communities") containing 16,996 apartment units located primarily in
metropolitan Atlanta, Georgia and Tampa, Florida. In addition, as of June 1,
1996 the Company had under construction or in initial lease-up six new
communities and an addition to an existing community in the Atlanta, Tampa and
Charlotte metropolitan areas that will contain an aggregate of 2,274 apartment
units when completed. For the year ended December 31, 1995, the average
economic occupancy rate of the 37 Communities and the first phase of two
additional Communities stabilized for the entire period was 96.0%. The average
monthly rental rate per apartment unit at these Communities for the same period
was $710. The Company also manages through affiliates three communities with
866 apartment units under the Post(R) brand name for third parties and
approximately 9,900 additional apartment units owned by third parties. The
Company is a fully-integrated organization with multifamily development,
acquisition, operation and asset management expertise and has approximately
1,100 employees, none of whom is a party to a collective bargaining agreement.
Since the business of the Company was founded in 1971, the Company has pursued
three distinctive core business strategies that, for 25 years, have remained
substantially unchanged:
Investment Building
Investment building means taking a long-term view of the assets the Company
creates. The Company develops communities with the intention of operating them
for periods that are relatively long by the standards of the apartment
industry. Key elements of the Company's investment building strategy include
instilling a disciplined team approach to development decisions; selecting
sites in niche and infill locations in strong primary markets; consistently
constructing new apartment communities with a uniformly high quality; and
conducting ongoing property improvements.
Promotion of the Post(R) Brand Name
The Post(R) brand name strategy has been integral to the success of the Company
and, to the knowledge of the Company, has not been successfully duplicated
within the multifamily real estate industry in any major U.S. market. For such
a strategy to work, a company must develop and implement systems to achieve
uniformly high quality and value throughout its operations. As a result of the
Company's efforts in developing and maintaining its communities, the Company
believes that the Post(R) brand name is synonymous with quality upscale
apartment communities that are situated in desirable locations and provide
superior resident service. Key elements in implementing the Company's brand
name strategy include extensively utilizing the trademarked brand name;
adhering to quality in all aspects of the Company's operations; developing and
implementing leading edge training programs; and coordinating the Company's
advertising programs to increase brand name recognition.
Service Orientation
The Company's mission statement is: "To provide the superior apartment living
experience for our residents." By striving to provide a superior product and
superior service, the Company believes that it will be able to achieve its
long-term goals. The Company believes that it provides its residents with
superior product and superior service through its uniformly high quality
construction, award winning landscaping and numerous amenities, including on
site business centers, on site courtesy officers, urban vegetable gardens and
state of the art fitness centers.
ORGANIZATION STRUCTURE
The Company's general partner, Post Properties, Inc. ("PPI" or the "General
Partner"), is a self-administered and self-managed equity real estate
investment trust (a "REIT"). On July 22, 1993, PPI completed an initial public
offering of 10,580,000 shares of its Common Stock (the "Initial Offering") and
a business combination involving entities under varying common ownership (the
"Formation Transactions"). The entities included in the business combination
are collectively referred to as Post Properties Group ("PPG"). On February 7,
1994, PPI completed a second public offering of 3,000,000 shares of its Common
Stock (the "Second Offering"). On October 20, 1995, PPI completed a third
public offering of 3,710,500 additional shares of its Common Stock (the "Third
Offering"). Proceeds from the Initial Offering were (i) used by PPI to acquire
a controlling interest in the Company, PPI's principal operating subsidiary,
which was formed to succeed to substantially all of the ownership interest in a
portfolio of 40 Post(R) multifamily apartment communities (the "Initial
Properties"), all of which were developed by the Company and owned by
affiliates of the Company, and to the development,
<PAGE> 3
leasing, landscaping and management business of the Company and certain other
affiliates and (ii) contributed by PPI to the Company to pay down existing
indebtedness on certain Initial Properties. Proceeds of the Second and Third
Offerings were contributed by PPI to the Company and used by the Company to pay
down existing indebtedness. PPI is the sole general partner of, and controls a
majority of the limited partnership interests in, the Company. PPI conducts
all of its business through the Company and its subsidiaries.
The Company's executive offices are located at 3350 Cumberland Circle, Suite
2200, Atlanta, Georgia 30339 and its telephone number is (770) 850-4400. PPI,
a Georgia corporation, was incorporated on January 25, 1984, and is the
successor by merger to the original Post Properties, Inc., a Georgia
corporation, which was formed in 1971. The Company is a Georgia limited
partnership that was formed in July 1993 for the purpose of consolidating the
operating and development businesses of the original Post Properties, Inc. and
the Post(R) apartment portfolio described herein.
The Company, through the operating divisions and subsidiaries described below,
is the entity through which all of PPI's operations are conducted. At December
31, 1995, PPI controlled the Company as the sole general partner, with a 1%
interest, and as the holder of an aggregate 80.8% interest in the Company. The
other limited partners of the Company are those persons (including certain
officers and directors of PPI) who, at the time of the Initial Offering,
elected to hold all or a portion of their interest in PPI in the form of units
in the Company ("Units") rather than receiving shares of PPI's Common Stock.
Each Unit may be redeemed by the holder thereof for either one share of PPI's
Common Stock or cash equal to the fair market value thereof at the time of such
redemption, at the option of PPI. As of June 1, 1996, PPI has issued Common
Stock in connection with all redemptions. With each redemption of outstanding
Units for PPI's Common Stock, PPI's percentage ownership interest in the
Company will increase. In addition, whenever PPI issues shares of Common Stock,
PPI will contribute any net proceeds therefrom to the Company and the Company
will issue an equivalent number of Units to PPI.
As sole general partner, PPI has the exclusive power under the agreement of
limited partnership of the Company to manage and conduct the business of the
Company, subject to the consent of the holders of the Units in connection with
the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company or in
connection with a dissolution of the Company. The board of directors of PPI
manages the affairs of PPI, which directs the affairs of the Company. The
Company cannot be terminated, except in connection with a sale of all or
substantially all of the assets of PPI, for a period of 50 years without a vote
of limited partners of the Company. PPI's limited and general partner interests
in the Company entitle it to share in cash distributions from, and in the
profits and losses of, the Company in proportion to PPI's percentage interest
therein and entitle PPI to vote on all matters requiring a vote of the limited
partners. See Item 11. Description of Registrant's Securities to be
Registered.
As part of the formation of the Company, a new holding company, Post Services,
Inc. ("Post Services") was organized as a separate corporate subsidiary of the
Company. Post Services, in turn, owns all the outstanding stock of three
operating subsidiaries, RAM Partners, Inc. ("RAM"), Post Asset Management, Inc.
("Post Asset Management") and Post Landscape Services, Inc. ("Post Landscape").
Certain officers and directors of PPI received 99%, collectively, of the voting
common stock of Post Services, and the Company received 1% of the voting common
stock and 100% of the nonvoting common stock of Post Services. The voting and
nonvoting common stock of Post Services held by the Company represents 99% of
the equity interests therein. The voting common stock held by officers and
directors in Post Services is subject to an agreement that is designed to
ensure that the stock will be held by one or more officers of Post Services.
The by-laws of Post Services provide that a majority of the board of directors
of Post Services must be persons who are not employees, members of management
or affiliates of PPI or its subsidiaries. This by-law provision cannot be
amended without the vote of 100% of the outstanding voting common stock of Post
Services. As of March 31, 1996, Post Services had the same board of directors
as PPI.
OPERATING DIVISIONS
The major operating divisions of the Company include:
Post Management Services
Post Management Services is responsible for the day-to-day operations of all
the Post(R) communities and is itself comprised of two divisions: one
responsible for community leasing, property management and personnel
recruiting, training and
-2-
<PAGE> 4
development, and the other for maintenance and security. Post Management
Services also conducts short-term leasing activities. The division is the
largest in the Company with approximately 430 full-time employees as of March
31, 1996.
Post Apartment Development
Post Apartment Development conducts the development and construction activities
of the Company. Development activities include site selection, zoning and
regulatory approvals, project design, and the full range of construction
management services. As of March 31, 1996, the division was comprised of
approximately 100 full-time employees.
Post Landscape Operations
This division works closely with Post Apartment Development in the initial
design of each Post(R) community and then has primary responsibility for
maintaining each community's landscape. The division maintains each
community's grounds on a cost effective basis for seasonal impact and has
earned national recognition for the Company. As of March 31, 1996, it was
comprised of approximately 50 full-time and part-time employees with
professionals specializing in landscape architecture, horticulture,
floriculture, and general landscape maintenance.
Post Corporate Services
Post Corporate Services provides executive direction and control to the
Company's other divisions and subsidiaries and has responsibility for the
creation and implementation of all Company financing and capital strategies.
All accounting, management reporting, and insurance services required by the
Company and all of its affiliates are centralized in Post Corporate Services.
As of March 31, 1996, the division employed approximately 45 full-time
employees.
OPERATING SUBSIDIARIES
The operating subsidiaries of the Company, each of which is wholly owned by
Post Services, include:
RAM
RAM provides third party asset management and leasing services for multifamily
properties that do not operate under the Post(R) name. RAM's clients include
pension funds, independent private investors, financial institutions and
insurance companies. RAM's asset management contracts generally are subject to
annual renewal or are terminable upon specified notice. As of March 31, 1996,
RAM managed 40 properties (located in Georgia, California, Florida, North
Carolina, and Virginia) with approximately 9,900 units under management. As of
March 31, 1996, RAM had approximately 295 full-time employees.
Post Asset Management
As of March 31, 1996, Post Asset Management provided management services to
three Post(R) communities (866 apartment units) owned by third parties, which
were originally developed by the Company but sold prior to the Initial
Offering. Use of the Post(R) name and other of the Company's federally
registered service marks in connection with each such community is limited to
the period during which the Company continues to manage the community. As of
March 31, 1996, Post Asset Management employed approximately 50 full-time
employees.
Post Landscape
As a result of the reputation the Company developed in connection with the
landscaping of Post(R) communities, in 1990 the Company began providing third
party landscape services for clients other than Post(R) communities. Projects
with third parties include the maintenance and design of the landscape for
office parks, commercial buildings and other commercial enterprises, and
private residences. Post Landscape provides such third party landscape
services and, as of March 31, 1996, it employed approximately 110 full-time
employees.
HISTORY OF THE COMPANY
As of June 1, 1996, the Company and its affiliates have developed a total of 71
Post(R) upscale garden and mid-rise apartment communities containing
approximately 22,425 apartment units. Of these communities, 47 communities
comprising 16,996 apartment units are owned by the Company in fee simple or
pursuant to a long-term ground lease, and are operated by the Company. The
Company and its affiliates sold 25 communities between 1972 and 1995 to parties
not affiliated with the Company, three of which the Company continues to manage
under the Post(R) name. Three continguous Atlanta communities containing a
total of 810 units, which the operating partnership developed in the early
1980's and sold in 1986, have been reacquired and are currently operated as one
community, Post Creek. As of June 1, 1996,
-3-
<PAGE> 5
six additional Post(R) communities and an addition to an existing community
were under construction and are owned and operated by the Company.
During the five-year period from January 1, 1991 through December 31, 1995, the
Company and its predecessors and affiliates developed and completed 2,953
apartment units in 15 apartment communities and sold three apartment
communities containing an aggregate of 568 apartment units. The Company has
developed its apartment communities to the Company's specifications as opposed
to buying and refurbishing existing properties built by others. The Company and
its affiliates have sold apartment communities after holding them for
investment periods that typically have been seven to twelve years after
development. The following table shows the results of the Company's
developments during this period:

The Company has also acquired a parcel in Atlanta on which it plans to build a
new community. The Home Depot, Inc. is constructing its corporate headquarters
campus and extensive infrastructure improvements are being made by the county
adjacent to the parcel. The Company will review its development plan for this
parcel closer to completion of these improvements. The Company is also
currently conducting feasibility and other pre-development studies for possible
new Post(R) communities in its primary market areas.
-4-
<PAGE> 6
COMPETITION
All of the Communities are located in developed areas that include other
upscale apartments. The number of competitive upscale apartment properties in a
particular area could have a material effect on the Company's ability to lease
apartment units at the Communities or at any newly developed or acquired
communities and on the rents charged. The Company may be competing with others
that have greater resources than the Company. In addition, other forms of
residential properties, including single family housing, provide housing
alternatives to potential residents of upscale apartment communities.
AMERICANS WITH DISABILITIES ACT
The Communities and any newly acquired apartment communities must comply with
Title III of the Americans with Disabilities Act (the "ADA") to the extent that
such properties are "public accommodations" and/or "commercial facilities" as
defined by the ADA. Compliance with the ADA requirements could require removal
of structural barriers to handicapped access in certain public areas of the
Company's Communities where such removal is readily achievable. The ADA does
not, however, consider residential properties, such as apartment communities,
to be public accommodations or commercial facilities, except to the extent
portions of such facilities, such as the leasing office, are open to the
public. The Company believes that its properties comply with all present
requirements under the ADA and applicable state laws. Noncompliance could
result in imposition of fines or an award of damages to private litigants. If
required to make material additional changes, the Company's results of
operations could be adversely affected.
ENVIRONMENTAL REGULATIONS
The Company is subject to Federal, state and local environmental regulations
that apply to the development of real property, including construction
activities, the ownership of real property, and the operation of multifamily
apartment communities.
In developing properties and constructing apartments, the Company utilizes
environmental consultants to determine whether there are any flood plains,
wetlands or environmentally sensitive areas that are part of the property to be
developed. If flood plains are identified, development and construction is
planned so that flood plain areas are preserved or alternative flood plain
capacity is created in conformance with Federal and local flood plain
management requirements.
Stormwater discharge from a construction facility is evaluated in connection
with the requirements for stormwater permits under the Clean Water Act. This is
an evolving program in most states. The Company currently anticipates it will
be able to obtain stormwater permits for existing or new development.
The Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act, 42
U.S.C. sec. 9601 et seq. ("CERCLA"), and applicable state superfund laws
subject the owner of real property to claims or liability for the costs of
removal or remediation of hazardous substances that are disposed of on real
property in amounts that require removal or remediation. Liability under CERCLA
and applicable state superfund laws can be imposed on the owner of real
property or the operator of a facility without regard to fault or even
knowledge of the disposal of hazardous substances on the property or at the
facility. The presence of hazardous substances in amounts requiring response
action or the failure to undertake remediation where it is necessary may
adversely affect the owner's ability to sell real estate or borrow money using
such real estate as collateral. In addition to claims for cleanup costs, the
presence of hazardous substances on a property could result in a claim by a
private party for personal injury or a claim by an adjacent property owner for
property damage.
The Company has instituted a policy that requires an environmental
investigation of each property that it considers for purchase or that it owns
and plans to develop. The environmental investigation is conducted by a
qualified environmental consultant. If there is any indication of
contamination, sampling of the property is performed by the environmental
consultant. The environmental investigation report is reviewed by the Company
prior to purchase of any property. If necessary, remediation of contamination,
including underground storage tanks, is undertaken prior to development.
The Company has not received written notification from any governmental
authority of any noncompliance, claim, or liability in connection with any of
the Communities. The Company has not been notified of a claim for personal
injury or property damage by a private party in connection with any of the
Communities in connection with environmental conditions. The
-5-
<PAGE> 7
Company is not aware of any other environmental condition with respect to any
of the Communities that could be considered to be material.

(1) Consists of revenues and expenses from property management and landscape
services provided to properties owned by third parties (including services
provided to third-party owners of properties previously developed and sold
by the Company that operate under the Post(R) name).
(2) The extraordinary item resulted from costs associated with the early
extinguishment of indebtedness.
(3) The distribution paid by the Company for the portion of the quarter ended
September 30, 1993 after the Initial Offering was $.320 per Unit, which is
an amount equivalent to a quarterly distribution of $.415 per Unit (which,
if annualized, would equal $1.66 per Unit).
(4) In March 1995, the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trust
("NAREIT") modified the definition of FFO, among other things, to
eliminate amortization of deferred financing costs and depreciation of
non-real estate assets as items added back to net income when computing
FFO. The modified definition of FFO became effective as of January 1,
1996. Funds from operations ("FFO") for any period means the Consolidated
Net Income of the operating Partnership and its Subsidiaries for such
period excluding gains or losses from debt restructuring and sales of
property, plus depreciation of real estate assets, and after adjustment for
unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures, all determined on a
consistent basis in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles. FFO presented herein (whether defined under the old or
modified NAREIT definition) is not necessarily comparable to FFO presented
by other real estate companies due to the fact that not all real estate
companies use the same definition. However, the Company's FFO is
comparable to the FFO of real estate companies that use the modified NAREIT
definition.
(5) Amount represents average economic occupancy for communities stabilized for
both the current and prior respective periods. Average economic occupancy
is defined as gross potential rent less vacancy losses, model expenses
and bad debt divided by gross potential rent for the period, expressed as a
percentage. The calculation of average economic occupancy does not include
a deduction for concessions and employee discounts (average economic
occupancy, taking account of these amounts, would have been 95.5% and 95.9%
for the year ended December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively). For the year
ended December 31, 1995, concessions were $296 and employee discounts were
$213. A community is considered by the Company to have achieved stabilized
occupancy on

the earlier to occur of (i) attainment of 95% physical occupancy on the
first day of any month (ii) one year after completion of construction.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
(Dollars in thousands, except apartment unit data)
OVERVIEW
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with all of the
financial statements appearing elsewhere in this report. The following
discussion is based primarily on the Consolidated Financial Statements of Post
Apartment Homes, L.P.
During the fourth quarter of 1995, PPI completed the Third Offering. The net
proceeds of $105,278 were contributed to the Company and were used to reduce
debt. As of December 31, 1995, there were 26,716,879 Units outstanding, of
which 21,577,636, or 80.8%, were owned by PPI and 5,139,243, or 19.2%, were
owned by other limited partners (including certain officers and directors of
PPI).
The Company's net income is generated primarily from the operation of its
apartment communities. For purposes of evaluating comparative operating
performance, the Company categorizes its operating communities based on the
period each community reaches stabilized occupancy. A community is generally
considered by the Company to have achieved stabilized occupancy on the earlier
to occur of (i) attainment of 95% physical occupancy on the first day of any
month or (ii) one year after completion of construction.
For communities with respect to which construction is completed and the
community has become fully operational, all property operating and maintenance
expenses are expensed as incurred and those recurring and non-recurring
expenditures relating to acquiring new assets, materially enhancing the value
of an existing asset, or substantially extending the useful life of an existing
asset are capitalized. See "Capitalization of Fixed Assets and Community
Improvements".
The Company has adopted an accounting policy related to communities in the
development and lease-up stage whereby substantially all operating expenses
(including pre-opening marketing expenses) are expensed as incurred. The
Company treats each unit in an apartment community separately for cost
accumulation, capitalization and expense recognition purposes. Prior to the
commencement of leasing activities, interest and other construction costs are
capitalized and reflected on the balance sheet as construction in progress.
Once a unit is placed in service, all operating expenses allocated to that
unit, including interest, are expensed as incurred. During the lease-up phase,
the sum of interest expense on completed units and other operating expenses
(including pre-opening marketing expenses) will typically exceed rental
revenues, resulting in a "lease-up deficit," which continues until such time as
rental revenues exceed such expenses.
Therefore, in order to evaluate the operating performance of its communities,
the Company has presented financial information which summarizes the revenue in
excess of specified expense on a comparative basis for all of its operating
communities combined and for communities stabilized for both the current and
prior respective periods. The Company has also presented quarterly financial
information reflecting the dilutive impact of lease-up deficits incurred for
communities in the development and lease-up stage and not yet operating at
break-even. In this presentation, only those communities which were dilutive
during the period are included and, accordingly, different communities may be
included in each period.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1996, AND 1995
The Company recorded net income of $12,432, for the three months ended March
31, 1996, an increase of $4,622 over the prior corresponding period primarily
as a result of increased rental rates for fully stabilized communities and an
increase in apartment units placed in service.

COMMUNITY OPERATIONS
As of March 31, 1996, the Company's portfolio of apartment communities
consisted of thirty-seven communities and the first phase of two additional
communities which were completed and stabilized for all of the current and
prior year, three communities and the second phase of an existing community
which achieved full stabilization during the prior year, three communities
which reached stabilization during 1996 and seven communities and a second
phase of an existing community in the development or lease-up stage.
ALL OPERATING COMMUNITIES
The operating performance for all of the Company's apartment communities
combined for the three months ended March 31, 1996 and 1995 is summarized as
follows:

(5) Other expenses includes certain indirect central office operating expenses
related to management, grounds maintenance, and costs associated with
furnished apartment rentals.
(6) In addition to those expenses which relate to property operations, the
Company incurs recurring and non-recurring expenditures relating to
acquiring new assets, materially enhancing the value of an existing asset,
or substantially extending the useful life of an existing asset, all of
which are capitalized.
For the quarter ended March 31, 1996, rental and other revenue increased
$5,693, or 17.9%, compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily as a
result of increased rates for fully stabilized communities and an increase in
units placed in service, partially offset by a decrease in rental and other
revenue due to the sale of three communities during the third quarter of 1995.
Rental and other revenue from communities stabilized since January 1, 1995,
increased $1,735, or 5.9%, compared to the same period in the prior year,
primarily as a result of higher rental rates. Rental and other revenue from
communities stabilized during 1995 and development and lease-up communities
increased $4,862, compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily due
to additional units placed in service. The historical operating results
include, for the three months ended March 31, 1995, revenues and expenses
related to three communities sold on September 13, 1995, all of which had been
previously included in the fully stabilized communities group.
Property operating and maintenance expenses (exclusive of depreciation and
amortization) increased primarily due to the increase in the units placed in
service from the first quarter of 1995 to the first quarter of 1996.
FULLY STABILIZED COMMUNITIES
The Company defines fully stabilized communities as those which have reached
stabilization prior to the beginning of the previous calendar year.
The operating performance of the 37 communities and the first phase of two
additional communities containing an aggregate of 14,160 units which were fully
stabilized as of January 1, 1995, are summarized as follows:

(1) In addition to those expenses which relate to property operations, the
Company incurs recurring and non-recurring expenditures relating to
acquiring new assets, materially enhancing the value of an existing
asset, or substantially extending the useful life of an existing
asset, all of which are capitalized.
(2) In addition to such capitalized expenditures, the Company expensed
$120 and $43, per unit, on building maintenance and landscaping
(inclusive of salaries) and such amounts were included in property
operating and maintenance expense.
(3) Average economic occupancy is defined as gross potential rent less
vacancy losses, model expenses and bad debt divided by gross potential
rent for the period, expressed as a percentage. The calculation of
average economic occupancy does not include a deduction for
concessions and employee discounts. (Average economic occupancy,
including these amounts would have been 95.1% and 95.5% for the three
months ended March 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively.) Concessions
were $62 and $62 and employee discounts were $71 and $59, for the
quarters ended March 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively.
(4) Average monthly rental rate is defined as the average of the gross
actual rental rates for occupied units and the anticipated rental
rates for unoccupied units.
During the first quarter of 1996, rental and other revenue increased due to
higher rental rates with occupancy remaining relatively stable. Property
operating and maintenance expenses (exclusive of depreciation and amortization)
increased $494, or 5.3%, compared to the same period in the prior year,
primarily as a result of ad valorem real estate taxes, which were up 13.3% as a
result of increased valuations in the second quarter of 1995.
LEASE-UP DEFICITS
As noted in the Overview, the Company has adopted an accounting policy related
to communities in the development and lease-up stage whereby substantially all
operating expenses (including pre-opening marketing expenses) are expensed as
incurred. The Company treats each unit in an apartment community separately
for cost accumulation, capitalization and expense recognition purposes. Prior
to the commencement of leasing activities, interest as well as other
construction costs are capitalized and reflected on the balance sheet as
construction in progress. Once a unit is placed in service, all expenses
allocated to that unit, including interest, are expensed as incurred. During
the lease-up phase, the sum of interest expense on completed units and other
operating expenses (including pre-opening marketing expenses) will typically
exceed rental revenues, resulting in a "lease-up deficit," which continues
until rental revenues exceed such expenses.
In this presentation, only those communities which were dilutive for the
respective period are included and, accordingly, different communities may be
included in different quarters.
For the three months ended March 31, 1996 and 1995, the "lease-up deficit"
charged to and included in results of operations are summarized as follows:

Property management revenues and the related expenses decreased for the three
months ended March 31, 1996, compared to the same period in 1995 primarily due
to the reduction in the average number of apartment units managed. This
reduction was primarily due to two management contracts which were cancelled
effective January 1996.
THIRD PARTY LANDSCAPE SERVICES
The Company provides landscape maintenance, design and installation services to
non-related parties through a subsidiary, Post Landscape Services, Inc. ("Post

The increase in landscape services revenue, landscape service expense and
general and administrative expense for the three months ended March 31, 1996,
compared to the same period in 1995, is primarily due to increases in landscape
contracts.
OTHER INCOME AND EXPENSES
General and administrative expense increased for the three months ended March
31, 1996, compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily as a result
of increased travel expenses and personnel costs.
The extraordinary item of $155 for the three months ended March 31, 1995
resulted from the costs associated with the early retirement of debt.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1995, 1994 AND 1993
The Company recorded net income of $37,297 for the year ended December 31, 1995
primarily as a result of increased rental rates for fully stabilized
communities and an increase in units placed in service. This is compared to
net income of $24,730 for the year ended December 31, 1994 and a net loss of
($9,061) for the year ended December 31, 1993. The increase in net income in
1994 was primarily due to lower interest expense as a result of the repayment
or economic defeasance of debt with contributions from PPI resulting from
proceeds of the Initial Offering and the Second Offering.
COMMUNITY OPERATIONS
At December 31, 1995, the Company's portfolio of apartment communities
consisted of thirty-four communities and the first phase of two additional
communities which were completed and stabilized for all of the current and
prior year, three communities which achieved full stabilization during the
prior year, three communities and the second phase of an existing community
which reached stabilization during the current year and eight communities and a
second phase of an existing community in the development or lease-up stage. In
addition, during the third quarter of 1995, the Company sold three of its
communities which it had previously developed and operated.

(5) Other revenue includes revenue on furnished apartment rentals above the
unfurnished rental rates and any revenue not directly related to property
operations.
(6) Other expenses includes certain indirect central office operating expenses
related to management, grounds maintenance, and costs associated with
furnished apartment rentals.
(7) In addition to those expenses which relate to property operations, the
Company incurs recurring and non-recurring expenditures relating to
acquiring new assets, materially enhancing the value of an existing asset,
or substantially extending the useful life of an existing asset, all of
which are capitalized.
Rental and other revenue increased for 1995 and 1994 primarily as a result of
increased rates for fully stabilized communities and an increase in units
placed in service. Rental and other revenue from communities stabilized since
January 1, 1994, increased $5,627 from 1994 to 1995 primarily as a result of
higher rental rates. Rental and other revenue from all other communities
increased by $12,700 from 1994 to 1995 primarily due to additional units placed
in service. On September 13,
-14-
<PAGE> 16
1995, the Company sold three communities, all of which had been previously
included in the fully stabilized community group and are now shown separately.
Property operating and maintenance expenses (exclusive of depreciation and
amortization) increased from 1993 to 1994 and 1994 to 1995 primarily due to the
increase in the units placed in service.
FULLY STABILIZED COMMUNITIES
The Company defines fully stabilized communities as those which have reached
stabilization prior to the beginning of the previous calendar year.
The operating performance of the 34 communities and the first phase of two
additional communities containing an aggregate of 13,428 units which were fully
stabilized as of January 1, 1994, are summarized as follows:

(1) In addition to those expenses which relate to property operations, the
Company incurs recurring and non-recurring expenditures relating to
acquiring new assets, materially enhancing the value of an existing asset,
or substantially extending the useful life of an existing asset, all of
which are capitalized. For the year ended December 31, 1995 and 1994,
recurring expenditures were $1,601 and $1,470, or $119 and $109 on a per
unit basis, respectively.
(2) Average economic occupancy is defined as gross potential rent less vacancy
losses, model expenses and bad debt divided by gross potential rent for
the period, expressed as a percentage. The calculation of average
economic occupancy does not include a deduction for concessions and
employee discounts. (Average economic occupancy, taking account of these
amounts would have been 95.5%, 96.1% and 93.8% for the year ended December
31, 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively.) For the year ended December 31,
1995, concessions were $296 and employee discounts were $213.
(3) Average monthly rental rate is defined as the average of the gross actual
rental rates for leased units and the average of the anticipated rental
rates for unoccupied units.
Rental and other revenue increased from 1994 to 1995 due to higher rental rates
with occupancy slightly declining. Property operating and maintenance expenses
(exclusive of depreciation and amortization) increased $1,761, or 4.8%. Ad
valorem real estate taxes increased from $9,376 in 1994 to $10,340 in 1995, an
increase of 10.3%. This increase alone accounted for 55% of the overall
operating expense increase. The remaining increase was primarily due to modest
increases in utilities, advertising and promotion and building repairs and
maintenance offset by a modest decrease in landscaping and grounds and
maintenance expense.
Rental and other revenue increased from 1993 to 1994 as a result of increased
rental rates and occupancy. The modest increase in property and maintenance
expense from 1993 to 1994 was primarily due to increases in real estate taxes,
insurance and personnel costs which were partially offset by reductions in
advertising and promotion expense due to lower
-15-
<PAGE> 17
vacancies. In addition, utilities expense remained relatively flat despite
rising rates due to the effect of installation of cost saving devices and
implemented cost controls. Building repairs and maintenance increased from
1993 to 1994 due to various cost reduction programs implemented at the
communities and cost savings achieved as grounds matured during the period.
LEASE-UP DEFICITS
As noted in the Overview, the Company has adopted an accounting policy related
to communities in the development and lease-up stage whereby substantially all
operating expenses (including pre-opening marketing expenses) are expensed as
incurred. The Company treats each unit in an apartment community separately
for cost accumulation, capitalization and expense recognition purposes. Prior
to the commencement of leasing activities, interest as well as other
construction costs are capitalized and reflected on the balance sheet as
construction in progress. Once a unit is placed in service, all expenses
allocated to that unit, including interest, are expensed as incurred. During
the lease-up phase, the sum of interest expense on completed units and other
operating expenses (including pre-opening marketing expenses) will typically
exceed rental revenues, resulting in a "lease-up deficit," which continues
until rental revenues exceed such expenses.
In this presentation, only those communities which were dilutive during each
period are included in that period and, accordingly, different communities may
be included in different periods.
For each quarter of the year ended December 31, 1995, the "lease-up deficit"
charged to and included in results of operations are summarized as follows:

</TABLE>
The decreases in property management revenues and the related expenses for 1995
to 1994 were primarily due to the reduction in the average number of apartment
units managed during the periods. These reductions were primarily due to
cancellation of three management contracts during 1993 and one during 1994 for
communities developed by the Company and sold to third-party owners prior to
the Initial Offering. Two additional contracts were cancelled effective in
January 1996. The Company expects income from Post Asset Management to
continue to decline as contracts are cancelled and not replaced.
THIRD PARTY LANDSCAPE SERVICES
The Company provides landscape maintenance, design and installation services to
non-related parties through a subsidiary, Post Landscape.

</TABLE>
The change in landscape services revenue, landscape services expense and
general and administrative expense from 1994 to 1995 is primarily due to an
increase in landscape contracts. Revenues and expenses for 1993 and 1994
remained consistent.
OTHER INCOME AND EXPENSES
Depreciation expense increased from 1993 to 1994 and from 1994 to 1995
primarily due to the completion of new communities.
Interest expense increased from 1994 to 1995 due to additional outstanding
borrowings until the time of the Third Offering. The decrease from 1993 to
1994 is primarily due to the repayment or economic defeasance of debt with
contributions made by PPI from proceeds of the Initial Offering and Second
Offering.
Amortization of deferred loan costs, interest rate protection agreement and
swap gain increased from 1993 to 1994 due to lower amortization of swap gain
from the extinguishment of debt with contributions made by PPI from proceeds of
the Initial Offering and Second Offering.
General and administrative expense remained relatively consistent from 1994 to
1995. The increase from 1993 to 1994 is due to increased costs associated with
operating PPI as a public company, write-off of costs ($282) relating to
abandoned development projects and additional incentive based executive
compensation.
Formation Transaction expense was incurred during the year ended December 31,
1993 relating to legal, accounting and other costs arising in connection with
the business combination completed at the time of the Initial Offering.
Gain on sale of real estate assets during 1995 and 1994 resulted from the sale
of three communities and a parcel of land, respectively.
The extraordinary item of $870, $3,293 and $7,855 for the years ended December
31, 1995, 1994 and 1993 net of minority interest portion, resulted from the
costs associated with the early retirement of debt.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Liquidity
The Company's net cash provided by operating activities increased from $2,412
in 1993 to $43,819 in 1994, principally due to decreased interest expense
($18,063) resulting from retirements of debt with contributions from PPI of
proceeds from the Initial and Second Offerings, increased property revenue in
excess of specified expenses ($8,931) and 1993 non-recurring payments for debt
prepayment penalties ($13,803) and REIT formation expenses ($2,783), and
increased from $43,819 in 1994 to $57,366 in 1995, principally due to increased
property operating income, and decreased from $21,117 in the three months ended
March 31, 1995 to $20,388 in the three months ended March 31, 1996, principally
due to changes in the Company's working capital. Net cash used in investing
activities increased from $51,152 in 1993 to $99,364 in 1994, principally due
to the increase in spending on new community development, and increased from
$99,364 in 1994 to $114,531 in 1995, principally due to a $27,740 increase in
spending on new community development and acquisition activity offset by an
increase in net proceeds of $15,152 from the
-18-
<PAGE> 20
sale of real estate assets. Net cash used in investing activities decreased
from $26,849 in the three months ended March 31, 1995, to $21,512 in the three
months ended March 31, 1996, principally due to the decrease in construction
activities relating to new development. The Company's net cash provided by
(used in) financing activities decreased from $49,647 in 1993 to $46,496 in
1994, principally due to the effects of contributions from PPI of proceeds from
the Initial and Second Offering and the payment of dividends in 1994, and
increased from $46,496 in 1994 to $60,881 in 1995, primarily due to the
effects of contributions from PPI of proceeds from the Third Offering and
dividend reinvestment program and the Company's additional borrowings and
distributions, and decreased from $2,050 in the three months ended March 31,
1995 to $(6,501) in the three months ended March 31, 1996 due to a decrease in
borrowing activity to fund development and an increase in distributions paid
for the three months ended March 31, 1996.
PPI has elected to be taxed as a REIT under Sections 856 through 860 of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, commencing with its taxable year
ended December 31, 1993. REITs are subject to a number of organizational and
operational requirements, including a requirement that they currently
distribute 95% of their ordinary taxable income. The Company makes
distributions to enable PPI to satisfy this requirement. As a REIT, PPI
generally will not be subject to Federal income tax on net income.
The Company is a partnership and, as a result, all income or loss of the
Company is allocated to partners for inclusion in their respective income tax
returns. Certain of the Company's subsidiaries are subject to Federal income
tax on net income.
At March 31, 1996, the Company had total indebtedness of $354,431 and cash and
cash equivalents of $1,383. The Company's indebtedness included conventional
mortgages payable secured by individual communities of $33,393, tax-exempt
bond indebtedness of $149,038, senior unsecured notes of $100,000, and
borrowings under an unsecured line of credit of approximately $72,000.
The Company expects to meet its short-term liquidity requirements generally
through its net cash provided by operations and borrowings under credit
arrangements and expects to meet certain of its long-term liquidity
requirements, such as scheduled debt maturities, repayment of financing of
construction and development activities and possible property acquisitions,
through long-term secured and unsecured borrowings, possible sale of properties
and the issuance of debt securities or additional equity securities of PPI, or,
possibly in connection with acquisitions of land or improved properties, Units
of the Company. The Company believes that its net cash provided by operations
will be adequate and anticipates that it will continue to be adequate to meet
both operating requirements and payment of distributions by the Company in
accordance with REIT requirements, of which PPI is subject to, in both the
short and the long term. The budgeted expenditures for improvements and
renovations to certain of the communities are expected to be funded from
property operations.
Line of Credit
On February 1, 1995, the Company closed a 39-month unsecured revolving line of
credit (the "Revolver") in the amount of $180,000 with a bank syndicate to
provide funding for future construction, acquisitions and general business
obligations. Borrowings under the Revolver initially bore interest at LIBOR
plus 1.50% or prime minus .25%. On March 1, 1996 the Revolver was amended to
reduce the interest rate to LIBOR plus 0.95% or prime minus .25% and to extend
the maturity to May 1, 1999. The amendment also provides for the rate to be
adjusted up or down based on changes in the Company's rating on senior
unsecured debt. On June 4, 1996, the Company received an upgrade in
its senior unsecured corporate credit rating which further reduced the
interest rate on the Revolver to LIBOR + 0.80%. The credit agreement for the
Revolver contains customary representations, covenants and events of default,
including covenants which restrict the ability of the Company to make
distributions, in excess of stated amounts. In general, during any fiscal year
the Company may only distribute up to 100% of the Company's consolidated income
available for distribution (as defined in the credit agreement) exclusive of
distributions of up to $30,000 of capital gains for such year. The credit
agreement contains exceptions to these limitations to allow the Company to make
distributions necessary to allow PPI to maintain its status as a REIT. The
Company does not anticipate that this covenant will adversely affect its
ability to make required distributions. At March 31, 1996 the Company had
$108,000 available under the Revolver to fund future development and general
corporate obligations.
In addition, the Company has a $3,000 facility to provide letters of credit for
general business purposes.

Northwestern Mutual Unsecured Loans
On June 7, 1995, the Company privately placed $50,000 of unsecured senior notes
with The Northwestern Mutual Life Insurance Company (the "NML Notes"). The NML
Notes were in two tranches: the first, aggregating $30,000, carries an interest
rate of 8.21% per annum (1.25% over the corresponding treasury rate on the date
such rate was set) and matures on June 7, 2000; and the second, aggregating
$20,000 carries an interest rate of 8.37% per annum (1.35% over the
corresponding treasury rate on the date such rate was set) and matures on June
7, 2002. Proceeds from the issuance of the NML Notes were used to reduce
secured indebtedness and to pay down the Revolver. The note agreements
pursuant to which the NML Notes were purchased contain representations,
covenants and events of default similar to those contained in the note
agreement for the Revolver.
Wachovia Unsecured Loans
On September 29, 1995, the Company privately placed $50,000 of unsecured senior
notes with Wachovia Bank of Georgia, N.A. (the "Wachovia Notes"). The Wachovia
Notes were in two tranches: the first tranche, aggregating $25,000, will
mature on September 29, 1999; the second tranche, aggregating $25,000, will
mature on September 29, 2001. Both tranches bear interest at 7.15% per annum
(1.10% over the corresponding treasury rate on the date such rate was set).
Proceeds from the issuance of the Wachovia Notes were used to reduce
indebtedness outstanding on the Revolver. The credit agreement for the notes
contain representations, covenants and events of default similar to those
contained in the note agreement for the Revolver.
Tax Exempt Bonds
On June 29, 1995, the Company replaced the bank letters of credit providing
credit enhancement for twelve of its outstanding tax-exempt bonds and three of
its economically defeased tax-exempt bonds. Under an agreement with the Federal
National Mortgage Association ("FNMA"), FNMA now provides, directly or
indirectly through other bank letters of credit, credit enhancement with
respect to such bonds. Under the terms of such agreement, FNMA has provided
replacement credit enhancement through 2025 for four bond issues, aggregating
$39,795, which were concurrently reissued, and has agreed, subject to certain
conditions, to provide credit enhancement through June 1, 2025 for up to an
additional $114,733 ($9,354 of which was defeased as of March 31, 1996) with
respect to eleven other bond issues which mature and may be refunded in 1996
through 1998. Under this agreement, on January 1, 1996, the Post Mill bonds
were refunded in the amount of $12,880 ($3,864 of which had previously been
defeased) with an issue enhanced by FNMA and maturing on June 1, 2025. In
addition, on April 3, 1996, the Post Canyon bonds were refunded in the amount
of $16,845 with an issue enhanced by FNMA and maturing on June 1, 2025. The
agreement with FNMA contains representations, covenants, and events of default
customary to such secured loans.
Offering
On October 20, 1995, PPI completed a public offering of 3,175,000 shares of its
Common Stock and a concurrent offering of 220,000 shares of its Common Stock
to certain executive officers. In connection with the public offering, PPI
granted the underwriters an option to purchase additional shares to cover
over-allotments. On November 8, 1995, the underwriters exercised their
over-allotment option and PPI issued an additional 315,500 shares of its Common
Stock, bringing the total shares issued in this offering to 3,710,500. The net
proceeds from the Third Offering of $105,278 were contributed to the Company
and were used to repay certain secured indebtedness and to pay down the
Revolver.
Dividend Reinvestment Plan
The Dividend Reinvestment Plan ("DRIP") is available to all shareholders of
PPI. Under the DRIP, shareholders may elect for their dividends to be used to
acquire additional shares of PPI's Common Stock directly from PPI, for 95% of
the market price on the date of purchase.

Refundable Tax Exempt Bonds
The Company has previously issued tax-exempt bonds, secured by certain
communities, totaling $235,880, of which $86,842 has been economically defeased
at March 31, 1996, leaving $149,038 of principal amount of tax-exempt bonds
outstanding at March 31, 1996. As of March 31, 1996, $52,675 of the bonds
outstanding have been reissued with a maturity of June 1, 2025. The remaining
outstanding bonds, together with the economically defeased bonds, mature and
may be reissued, during the years 1996 through 1998. The Company has chosen
economic defeasance of the bond obligations rather than a legal defeasance in
order to preserve the legal right to refund such obligations on a tax-exempt
basis at the stated maturity if the Company then determines that such refunding
is beneficial to the Company.
The following table shows the amount of bonds (both defeased and outstanding)
at March 31, 1996, which the Company may reissue during the years 1996 through
2025:

Other Activities
As of September 1, 1995, the Company acquired the 49.99% interest in Post Woods
that was held by a third party. The third party exercised its right to require
the Company to purchase its interest, and the Company purchased the interest
for $10,149 in cash and the assumption of the third party's share of
partnership liabilities.
On September 13, 1995, the Company sold three communities located in Florida
for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $22,645. The sale of these
communities in Daytona, Boynton Beach and Merritt Island, Florida, is
consistent with the Company's strategy of selling communities that no longer
meet the Company's existing ownership criteria. The communities will not be
managed by the Company and hence, will no longer be operated under the Post(R)
name.
On May 7, 1996, the Operating Partnership reacquired three contiguous Atlanta
apartment communities containing a total of 810 units which the Operating
Partnership developed in the early 1980's and managed under the Post(R) brand
name through mid-1993. The Operating Partnership's capital investment,
including expenditures to add perimeter fencing and steel entry gates and
construction of a new centralized leasing office, will be approximately
$48 million. The community was previously operated as Dunwoody Crossing and,
following the Operating Partnership's purchase, will be operated as Post Creek.
In April 1996, the Operating Partnership listed two communities in Florida,
containing a total of 596 units, for sale.
Capitalization of Fixed Assets and Community Improvements
The Company has established a policy of capitalizing those expenditures
relating to acquiring new assets, materially enhancing the value of an existing
asset, or substantially extending the useful life of an existing asset. All
expenditures necessary to maintain a community in ordinary operating condition
are expensed as incurred. During the first five years of a community (which
corresponds to the estimated depreciable life), carpet replacements are
expensed as incurred. Thereafter, carpet replacements are capitalized.
Acquisition of assets and community improvement expenditures for the three
months ended March 31, 1996 and 1995 are summarized as follows:

Inflation
Substantially all of the leases at the Communities allow, at the time of
renewal, for adjustments in the rent payable thereunder, and thus may enable
the Company to seek increases in rents. The substantial majority of these
leases are for one year or less and the remaining leases are for up to two
years. At the expiration of a lease term, the Company's lease agreements
provide that the term will be extended unless either the Company or the lessee
gives at least sixty (60) days written notice of termination; in addition, the
Company's policy permits the earlier termination of a lease by a lessee upon
thirty (30) days written notice to the Company and the payment of one month's
additional rent as compensation for early termination. The short-term nature
of these leases generally serves to reduce the risk to the Company of the
adverse effect of inflation.
FUNDS FROM OPERATIONS AND CASH AVAILABLE FOR DISTRIBUTION
Historical Funds from Operations.
The Company considers FFO an appropriate measure of performance of an equity
REIT. Funds from operations is defined to mean net income (loss) determined in
accordance with GAAP, excluding gains or losses from debt restructuring and
sales of property, plus depreciation of real estate assets, and after
adjustment for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Funds from
operations should not be considered as an alternative to net income (determined
in accordance with GAAP) as an indicator of the Company's financial performance
or to cash flow from operating activities (determined in accordance with GAAP)
as a measure of the Company's liquidity, nor is it necessarily indicative of
sufficient cash flow to fund all of the Company's needs. Cash available for
distribution is defined as FFO less capital expenditures funded by operations
and loan amortization payments. The Company believes that in order to
facilitate a clear understanding of the consolidated historical operating
results of the Company, funds from operations and cash available for
distribution should be examined in conjunction with net income as presented in
the consolidated financial statements and data included elsewhere in this Form
10.
Funds from operations and cash available for distribution for the three months
ended March 31, 1996 and 1995 presented on a historical basis are summarized in

(1) In March 1995, the National Association of Real Estate Investment
Trust ("NAREIT") modified the definition of FFO, among other things,
to eliminate amortization of deferred financing costs and depreciation
of non-real estate assets as items added back to net income when
computing FFO. The modified definition of FFO became effective as of
January 1, 1996. FFO presented herein (whether defined under the
old or modified NAREIT definition) is not necessarily comparable to FFO
presented by other real estate companies due to the fact that not all
real estate companies use the same definition. However, the Company's
FFO is comparable to the FFO of real estate companies that use the
modified NAREIT definition.
(2) Recurring capital expenditures consisted primarily of $172 and $192 of
carpet replacement, $292 and $170 of other additions and improvements
to existing communities for the three months ended March 31, 1996 and
1995, respectively. Since the Company does not add back the
depreciation of non-real estate assets in its calculation of FFO,
capital expenditures of $204 and $292 are excluded from the
calculation of Cash Available for Distriubtion for the three months
ended March 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively.
(3) Non-recurring capital expenditures consisted of community additions
and improvements of $136 and the addition of vehicle access control
gates to communities of $69 for the three months ended March 31, 1996
and 1995, respectively.

addition, on July 22, 1993 the Company issued an aggregate of 5,928,216 Units
to the limited partners in exchange for certain property and assets valued at
an aggregate of approximately $152 million. The issuance of the Units was
effected in reliance on the exemption from registration under Section 4(2) of
the Securities Act.
The Company has issued additional Units to the General Partner in
exchange for the contribution of funds received pursuant to sales of Common
Stock pursuant to the Second Offering, the Third Offering, the Employee Stock
Plan, the Employee Stock Purchase Plan and the Dividend Reinvestment and Stock
Purchase Plan. The issuance of the Units was effected in reliance on the

On June 7, 1995, the Company issued $50,000 of unsecured senior notes to The
Northwestern Mutual Life Insurance Company (the "NML Notes"). The NML Notes
were in two tranches: the first, aggregating $30,000,000 carries an interest
rate of 8.21% per annum (1.25% over the corresponding treasury rate on the date
such rate was set) and will mature on June 7, 2000; and the second, aggregating
$20,000,000 carries an interest rate of 8.37% per annum (1.35% over the
corresponding treasury rate on the date such rate was set) and will mature on
June 7, 2002. Proceeds from the issuance of the NML Notes were used to reduce
secured indebtedness and to reduce indebtedness outstanding on the Revolver.
The note agreements pursuant to which the NML Notes were purchased contain
representations, covenants and events of default similar to those contained in
the note agreement for the Revolver. The issuance of the NML Notes was
effected in reliance on the exemption from registration under Section 4(2) of
the Securities Act.
On September 29, 1995, the Company issued $50,000 of unsecured senior notes to
Wachovia Bank of Georgia, N.A. (the "Wachovia Notes"). The Wachovia Notes were

29, 1999; and the second, aggregating $25,000,000, will mature on September 29,
2001. Both tranches bear interest at 7.15% per annum (1.10% over the
corresponding treasury rate on the date such rate was set). Proceeds from the
issuance of the Wachovia Notes were used reduce indebtedness outstanding on the
Revolver. The credit agreement for the notes contain representations,
covenants and events of default similar to those contained in the note
agreement for the Revolver. The issuance of the Wachovia Notes was effected in
reliance on the exemption from registration under Section 4(2) of the
Securities Act.
ITEM 11. DESCRIPTION OF REGISTRANT'S SECURITIES TO BE REGISTERED
All of the General Partner's assets are held by or through, and all of its
operations are conducted by or through, the Company. At March 31, 1996, the
General Partner controlled the Company as the sole general partner and as the
holder of an 80.8% interest in the Company. The other limited partners of the
Company are those persons (including certain officers and
-27-
<PAGE> 29
directors of the General Partner) who, at the time of the Initial Offering,
elected to hold all or a portion of their interest in the General Partner in
the form of Units in the Company rather than receiving shares of Common Stock.
The material terms of the Units, including a summary of certain provisions of
the First Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership (the
"Partnership Agreement") are set forth below. The following description of the
terms and provision of the Units and the Partnership Agreement does not purport
to be complete and is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to
applicable provisions of Georgia law and the terms of the Partnership
Agreement.
GENERAL
Holders of Units (other than the General Partner in its capacity as general
partner) hold limited partnership interests in the Company, and all holders of
Units (including the General Partner in its capacity as general partner) are
entitled to share in cash distributions from, and in the profits and losses of,
the Company. Each Unit generally receives distributions in the same amount
paid on each share of Common Stock. The Units are not registered pursuant to
Federal or state securities laws, and they are not listed on the New York Stock
Exchange ("NYSE") or any other exchange or quoted on any national market
system; however, the Shares of Common Stock into which they are exchangeable
are reserved for issuance and have been registered under a Registration
Statement filed by the General Partner under the Securities Act. Upon
effectiveness of this Form 10, the Units will be registered under the Exchange
Act which registration will not affect their restricted nature.
The Company was formed as a limited partnership under the Georgia Revised
Uniform Limited Partnership Act ("GRULPA"). Holders of Units have the rights
to which limited partners are entitled under GRULPA. The Units cannot be sold,
assigned, pledged or otherwise disposed of by a holder unless they are
registered under Federal and state securities laws or an exemption from such
registration is available. In addition, the Partnership Agreement imposes
restrictions on the transfer of Units, as described herein.
The General Partner holds, in its capacity as general partner, a number of
Units equal to 1% of all Units outstanding from time to time, and holds the
balance of its Units in its capacity as a limited partner. Accordingly, the
General Partner is a limited partner, and has the rights of a limited partner
(including the voting and consent rights of a limited partner), with respect to
all Units held by the General Partner from time to time in excess of 1% of the
total number of Units outstanding.
PURPOSES, BUSINESS AND MANAGEMENT
The purpose of the Company includes the conduct of any business that may
lawfully be conducted by a limited partnership formed under GRULPA, except that
the Partnership Agreement requires the business of the Company to be conducted
in such a manner that will permit the General Partner to be classified as a
REIT under Section 856 of the Code, unless the General Partner ceases to
qualify as a REIT for reasons other than the conduct of the business of the
Company. The Company may, subject to the foregoing limitation, enter into
partnerships, joint ventures or similar arrangements and may own interests in
any other entity.
The General Partner, as general partner, has the exclusive power and authority
to conduct the business of the Company, subject to the consent of the limited
partners in certain limited circumstances discussed below. No limited partner,
in his or her capacity as such, may take part in the operation, management or
control of the business of the Company.
In particular, the limited partners expressly acknowledge in the Partnership
Agreement that the General Partner is acting on behalf of the Company and the
General Partner's shareholders collectively, and is under no obligation to
consider the tax consequences to individual limited partners when making
decisions for the benefit of the General Partner. The General Partner intends
to make decisions in its capacity as general partner of the Company so as to
maximize the profitability of the General Partner as a whole, independent of
the tax effects on the limited partners. The General Partner and the Company
have no liability to a limited partner as a result of any liabilities or
damages incurred or suffered by or benefits not derived by a limited partner as
a result of an action or inaction of the General Partner so long as the General
Partner acted in good faith.
-28-
<PAGE> 30
ABILITY TO ENGAGE IN OTHER BUSINESSES; CONFLICTS OF INTEREST
The General Partner may not conduct any business other than the business of the
Company. Other persons (including officers, directors, employees, agents and
other affiliates of the General Partner) are not prohibited under the
Partnership Agreement from engaging in other business activities and are not
required to present any business opportunities to the Company. However, the
General Partner, on behalf of the Company, is authorized and expects to enter
into agreements with affiliates of the General Partner regarding options to
purchase certain properties and avoidance of conflicts. See the Section
entitled "Policies with Respect to Certain Activities -- Conflict of Interest
Policies" included herein.
DISTRIBUTIONS; ALLOCATIONS OF INCOME AND LOSS
The Partnership Agreement provides for the distribution of Available Cash, as
determined in the manner provided in the Partnership Agreement, to the general
partner and the limited partners in proportion to their percentage interests in
the Company. "Available Cash" is generally defined as net income plus
depreciation and other adjustments and minus reserves, principal payments on
debt and capital expenditures and other adjustments. In addition, the
Partnership Agreement provides for the allocation to the general partner and
the limited partners of items of Company income and loss.
BORROWING BY THE COMPANY
The general partner is authorized to cause the Company to borrow money and to
issue and guarantee debt as it deems necessary for the conduct of the
activities of the Company. Such debt may be secured by deeds to secure debt,
mortgages, deeds of trust, liens or encumbrances on properties of the Company.
The general partner may also cause the Company to borrow money to enable the
Company to make distributions in an amount sufficient to permit the general
partner, so long as it qualifies as a REIT, to avoid the payment of any federal
income tax.
REIMBURSEMENT OF GENERAL PARTNER; TRANSACTIONS WITH THE GENERAL PARTNER AND ITS
AFFILIATES
The general partner does not receive any compensation for its services as
general partner of the Company. The general partner, however, as a partner in
the Company, has the same right to allocations and distributions as other
partners of the Company. In addition, the Company has agreed to reimburse the
general partner for all expenses it incurs relating to the ongoing operation of
the Company, and any offering of additional Units, other partnership interests
or shares of Common Stock, including expenses in connection with the
registration of shares of Common Stock under the Registration Rights and
Lock-Up Agreement dated as of July 22, 1993 by and among the General Partner
and the holders listed on Schedule A thereto (the "Registration Rights and
Lock-Up Agreement"), and any offering of debt.
Except as expressly permitted by the Partnership Agreement, neither the general
partner nor any of its affiliates will sell, transfer or convey any property
to, or purchase any property from, the Company, directly or indirectly, except
pursuant to transactions that are determined by the general partner in good
faith, in its sole and absolute discretion, to be fair and reasonable.
LIABILITY OF GENERAL PARTNER AND LIMITED PARTNER
The general partner is liable for all general obligations of the Company to the
extent not paid by the Company. The general partner is not liable for the
nonrecourse obligations of the Company.
The limited partners are not required to make additional contributions to the
Company. Assuming that a limited partner acts in conformity with the
provisions of the Partnership Agreement, the liability of the limited partner
for obligations of the Company under the Partnership Agreement and GRULPA is
limited, subject to certain possible exceptions, generally to the loss of the
limited partner's investment in the Company represented by his or her Units.
The Company is qualified to conduct business in Georgia, Florida, North
Carolina, Tennessee and Virginia. Maintenance of limited liability may require
compliance with certain legal requirements of those jurisdictions and certain
other jurisdictions. Limitations on the liability of a limited partner for the
obligations of a limited partnership have not clearly been
-29-
<PAGE> 31
established in many states; accordingly, if it were determined that the right,
or exercise of the right by the limited partners, to make certain amendments to
the Partnership Agreement or to take other action pursuant to the Partnership
Agreement constituted "control" of the Company's business for the purposes of
the statutes of any relevant state, the limited partners might be held
personally liable for the Company's obligations. The Company operates in a
manner the general partner deems reasonable, necessary and appropriate to
preserve the limited liability of the limited partners.
EXCULPATION AND INDEMNIFICATION OF THE GENERAL PARTNER
The Partnership Agreement generally provides that the general partner will
incur no liability to the Company or any limited partner for losses sustained
or liabilities incurred as a result of errors in judgment or of any act or
omission if the general partner acted in good faith. In addition, the general
partner is not responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of its
agents provided the general partner appointed such agents in good faith. The
general partner may consult with legal counsel, accountants, appraisers,
management consultants, investment bankers and other consultants and advisors
and any action it takes or omits to take in reliance upon the opinion of such
persons, as to matters which the general partner reasonably believes to be
within their professional or expert competence, shall be conclusively presumed
to have been done or omitted in good faith and in accordance with such opinion.
The Partnership Agreement also provides for indemnification of the general
partner, the directors and officers of the general partner, and such other
persons as the general partner may from time to time designate, against any and
all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, expenses, judgments, fines,
settlements, and other amounts arising from any and all claims, demands,
actions, suits or proceedings that relate to the operations of the Company in
which such person may be involved, or is threatened to be involved, provided
that the Company shall not indemnify any such person (i) for intentional
misconduct or a knowing violation of the law, or (ii) for any transaction for
which such person received a personal benefit in violation or breach of any
provision of the Partnership Agreement.
SALES OF ASSETS
Under the Partnership Agreement, the general partner generally has the
exclusive authority to determine whether, when and on what terms the assets of
the Company (including the Communities) will be sold. A sale of all or
substantially all of the assets of the Company (or a merger of the Company with
another entity), however, requires an affirmative vote of holders of a majority
of the Units (including Units held by the General Partner). As the holder of a
majority of the Units, the General Partner has the power to control the outcome
of any such sale.
REMOVAL OF THE GENERAL PARTNER; TRANSFER OF GENERAL PARTNER'S INTEREST
The Partnership Agreement provides that the general partner may not be removed
by the limited partners. The general partner may not transfer any of its
interests as general or limited partner except in connection with a merger or
sale of all or substantially all its assets. The general partner may not sell
all or substantially all of its assets, or enter into a merger, unless the sale
or merger includes the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of, or
the merger of, the Company with partners of the Company receiving substantially
the same consideration as holders of shares of Common Stock.
RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER OF UNITS BY LIMITED PARTNERS
Subject to certain exceptions, a limited partner may not transfer all or any
portion of his or her Units without (1) obtaining the prior written consent of
the general partner, which consent may be withheld in the sole and absolute
discretion of the general partner, and (2) meeting certain other requirements
set forth in the Partnership Agreement. Units are transferable only upon
consent of the General Partner (as general partner) or in a transfer to (i) a
member of a Partner's Immediate Family (as defined in the Partnership
Agreement) or a trust for the benefit of a member of a Partner's Immediate
Family in a donative transfer that does not involve the receipt of any
consideration or (ii) an organization that qualifies under Section 501(c)(3) of
the Code and that is not a private foundation within the meaning of Section
509(a) of the Code, provided that, in either case, such transferee is an
"accredited investor" within the meaning of Regulation D promulgated under the
Securities Act of 1933. Partners who elect to receive Units should expect to
hold them until they redeem them for cash or shares of Common Stock, or until
the Company terminates. The right of a transferee in a donative transfer to
become a substituted
-30-
<PAGE> 32
limited partner also is subject to the consent of the general partner, which
consent may be withheld in its sole and absolute discretion. If the general
partner does not consent to the admission of a transferee in a donative
transfer, the transferee will succeed to all economic rights and benefits
attributable to such Units (including the right of redemption) but will not
become a limited partner or possess any other rights of limited partners
(including the right to vote on or consent to actions of the Company).
NO WITHDRAWAL BY LIMITED PARTNERS
No limited partner has the right to withdraw from or reduce his capital
contribution to the Company, except as a result of the redemption or transfer
of his Units pursuant to the terms of the Partnership Agreement.
ISSUANCE OF ADDITIONAL LIMITED PARTNERSHIP INTERESTS
The general partner is authorized, without the consent of the limited partners,
to cause the Company to issue additional Units to the partners (other than the
General Partner) or to other persons for such consideration and on such terms
and conditions as the general partner deems appropriate. In addition, the
general partner may cause the Company to issue to the General Partner
additional Units, or other additional partnership interests in different series
or classes which may be senior to the Units, in conjunction with an offering of
securities of the General Partner having substantially similar rights, in which
the proceeds thereof are contributed to the Company. Consideration for
additional partnership interests may be cash or any property or other assets
permitted by GRULPA.
MEETINGS; VOTING
Meetings of the limited partners may be called only by the general partner, on
its own motion or upon written request of limited partners owning at least 25%
of the Units. Limited partners may vote either in person or by proxy at
meetings. Any action that is required or permitted to be taken by the limited
partners of the Company may be taken either at a meeting of the limited
partners or without a meeting if consents in writing setting forth the action
so taken are signed by limited partners owning not less than the minimum Units
that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting of the
limited partners at which all limited partners entitled to vote on such action
were present. On matters in which limited partners are entitled to vote, each
limited partner will have a vote equal to the number of Units he or she holds
in the Company. A transferee of Units who has not been admitted as a limited
partner of record with respect to such Units will have no voting rights with
respect to such Units, even if such transferee holds other Units as to which it
has been admitted as limited partner, and the votes otherwise attributable to
such transferee's Units will be treated as having been voted in the same
proportion as those votes actually cast. The Partnership Agreement does not
provide for annual meetings of the limited partners, and the general partner
does not anticipate calling such meetings.
AMENDMENT OF PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT
Amendments to the Partnership Agreement may be proposed by the general partner
or by limited partners owning at least 25% of the Units. Generally, the
Partnership Agreement may be amended with the approval of the general partner
and limited partners holding a majority of the Units. Certain amendments that
would, among other things, convert a limited partner's interest into a general
partner's interest; modify the limited liability of a limited partner; alter
the interest of a partner in profits or losses, or the rights to receive any
distributions; alter or modify the redemption right described above; or cause
the termination of the Company at a time or on terms inconsistent with those
set forth in the Partnership Agreement must be approved by the general partner
and each limited partner that would be adversely affected by such amendment.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the general partner shall have the power,
without the consent of the limited partners, to amend the Partnership Agreement
as may be required to (1) add to the obligations of the general partner or
surrender any right or power granted to the general partner or an affiliate of
the general partner, (2) reflect the admission, substitution, termination, or
withdrawal of partners in accordance with the terms of the Partnership
Agreement, (3) establish the designations, rights, powers, duties and
preferences of any additional partnership interests issued in accordance with
the terms of the Partnership Agreement, (4) reflect a change that is of an
inconsequential nature and does not materially
-31-
<PAGE> 33
adversely affect the limited partners, or cure any ambiguity, correct or
supplement any provisions of the Partnership Agreement not inconsistent with
law or with other provisions of the Partnership Agreement, or make other
changes concerning matters under the Partnership Agreement that are not
otherwise inconsistent with the Partnership Agreement or law, or (5) satisfy
any requirements of federal or state law or regulatory or judicial order.
Certain provisions affecting the rights and duties of the general partner
(e.g., restrictions on the general partner's power to conduct businesses other
than owning Units) may not be amended without the approval of a majority of the
Units not held by the general partner.
BOOKS AND REPORTS
The general partner is required to keep the Company's books and records at the
principal office of the Company. The books of the Company are required to be
maintained for financial and tax reporting purposes on an accrual basis. The
limited partners have the right, subject to certain limitations, to receive
copies of Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") filings by the
general partner, the Company's tax return, a list of partners, the Partnership
Agreement, the partnership certificate and all amendments thereto, and
information about the capital contributions of the partners. The general
partner may keep confidential from the limited partners any information that
the general partner believes to be in the nature of trade secrets or other
information the disclosure of which the general partner in good faith believes
is not in the best interests of the Company or which the Company is required by
law or by agreements with unaffiliated third parties to keep confidential.
The General Partner will furnish to each limited partner, within 105 days after
the close of each fiscal year, an annual report containing financial statements
of the Company (or the General Partner, if consolidated financial statements
including the Company are prepared) for each fiscal year. The financial
statements will be audited by a nationally recognized firm of independent
public accountants selected by the general partner. In addition, within 105
days after the close of each fiscal quarter (except the fourth quarter), the
general partner will furnish to each limited partner a report containing
unaudited financial statements of the Company (or the General Partner) and such
other information as may be required by applicable law or regulation or as the
general partner deems appropriate.
The general partner will use reasonable efforts to furnish to each limited
partner, within 90 days after the close of each taxable year, the tax
information reasonably required by the limited partners for federal and state
income tax reporting purposes.
POWER OF ATTORNEY
Pursuant to the terms of the Partnership Agreement, each limited partner and
each assignee appoints the general partner, any liquidator, and the authorized
officers and attorneys-in-fact of each, as such limited partner's or assignee's
attorney-in-fact to: execute, swear to, acknowledge, deliver, file and record
in the appropriate public offices various certificates, documents and other
instruments (including, without limitation, the Partnership Agreement and the
certificate of limited partnership and all amendments or restatements thereof)
that the general partner or such liquidator deems appropriate or necessary to
effectuate the terms or intent of the Partnership Agreement. The Partnership
Agreement provides that such power of attorney is irrevocable, will survive the
subsequent incapacity of any limited partner and the transfer of all or any
portion of such limited partner's or assignee's Units and will extend to such
limited partner's or assignee's heirs, successors, assigns and personal
representatives.
DISSOLUTION, WINDING UP AND TERMINATION
The Company will continue until December 31, 2092, unless sooner dissolved and
terminated. The Company will be dissolved prior to the expiration of its
term, and its affairs wound up upon the occurrence of the earliest of: (1) the
withdrawal of the general partner (as defined in GRULPA, but excluding certain
events of bankruptcy or insolvency) unless the limited partners agree to
continue the business of the Company and appoint a successor general partner;
(2) the sale of all or substantially all of the Company's assets and
properties; (3) the entry of a decree of judicial dissolution of the Company
pursuant to the provisions of GRULPA; (4) the entry of a final judgment ruling
that the general partner is bankrupt or insolvent, unless prior to the date of
such judgment the limited partners agree to continue the business of the
Company and appoint a successor general partner; (5)(i) from and after the
completion of the Initial Offering through December 31,
-32-
<PAGE> 34
2013, an election by the general partner, unless any limited partner who became
a limited partner on the completion of the Initial Offering and who holds Units
issued at the time of the completion of the Initial Offering objects to such
dissolution, (ii) from and after January 1, 2014 through December 31, 2043, an
election by the general partner, unless limited partners who became limited
partners at the time of the completion of the Initial Offering and who hold at
least five percent (5%) of the Units issued at the time of the completion of
the Initial Offering object to such dissolution and (iii) on or after January
1, 2044, an election by the general partner, in its sole and absolute
discretion. Upon dissolution, the general partner or any liquidator will
proceed to liquidate the assets of the Company and apply the proceeds therefrom
in the order of priority set forth in the Partnership Agreement.
ITEM X. POLICIES WITH RESPECT TO CERTAIN ACTIVITIES
The following is a discussion of investment policies, financing policies,
conflict of interest policies and policies with respect to certain activities
of the Company. The policies with respect to these activities have been
determined by the General Partner of the Company and may be amended or revised
from time to time at the discretion of the General Partner without a vote of
the limited partners of the Company, except that (1) the General Partner cannot
change its policy of holding its assets and conducting its business only
through the Company without the consent of the holders of Units as provided in
the Partnership Agreement, (2) changes in certain policies with respect to
conflicts of interest must be consistent with legal requirements, (3) the
policies with respect to competition by Mr. Williams and Mr. Glover are imposed
pursuant to a contract that cannot be amended or waived without the vote of a
majority of the disinterested directors of the General Partner, and (4) the
General Partner cannot take any action intended to terminate its qualification
as a REIT without the approval of the holders of a majority of the shares of
Common Stock.
INVESTMENT POLICIES
Investments in Real Estate or Interests in Real Estate.
The Company's investment objective is to provide quarterly cash distributions
and achieve long-term appreciation through increases in cash flows and the
value of its properties. The Company intends to pursue these objectives by
continuing to develop upscale apartment communities for long-term ownership and
to manage its properties intensively, and thereby seek to maximize current and
long-term income and the value of its assets. The Company's policy is to
develop or acquire assets where the Company believes that opportunities exist
for acceptable investment returns. The Company will use the Post(R) name in
operating acquired properties that in the Company's judgment are consistent
with the market identity of Post(R) brand name communities. The Company may
expand or improve existing properties or sell such properties in whole or in
part as determined by the General Partner.
The Company expects to pursue its investment objectives through the direct
ownership of properties and the ownership of interests in special purpose
partnerships. The Company currently intends to invest in or develop primarily
apartment communities in its primary markets. However, future development or
investment activities will not be limited to any geographic area or product
type or to a specified percentage of the Company's assets.
All of the Communities owned by the Company are managed directly by the
Company. The Company, through RAM, also manages apartment communities in which
it owns no equity interests and which do not bear the Post(R) name, and through
Post Asset Management, manages Post(R) communities in which it owns no equity
interests.
The Company may also participate with other entities in property ownership,
through joint ventures or other types of co- ownership. Equity investment may
be subject to existing mortgage financing and other indebtedness which have
priority over the equity of the Company.
Investments in Real Estate Mortgages.
While the Company has emphasized equity real estate investments, it may, in its
discretion, invest in mortgage and other real estate interests consistent with
the General Partner's qualification as a REIT. The Company has not previously
invested in mortgages or other real estate interests and the Company does not
presently intend to invest to a significant extent in mortgages or other real
estate interests. The Company may invest in participating or convertible
mortgages if it concludes
-33-
<PAGE> 35
that it may benefit from the cash flow or any appreciation in the value of the
subject property. Such mortgages are similar to equity participation.
Securities of or Interests in Persons Primarily Engaged in Real Estate
Activities and Other Issuers. Subject to the percentage of ownership
limitations and gross income tests necessary for REIT qualification of the
General Partner, the Company may invest in securities of entities engaged in
real estate activities or securities of other issuers, including for the
purpose of exercising control over such entities, although, with the exception
of its wholly-owned subsidiaries, it has not done so in the past. The Company
may acquire all or substantially all of the securities or assets of other REITs
or similar entities where such investments would be consistent with the
Company's investment policies.
FINANCING POLICIES
The Company intends to maintain a ratio of indebtedness to total market
capitalization (i.e., the market value of issued and outstanding Units (deemed
to be equal to the market value of an equal number of shares of Common Stock)
plus total debt) of approximately 60% or less. This policy differs from
traditional conventional mortgage debt-to-equity ratios which are asset based
ratios. The Company's ratio of debt to total market capitalization was
approximately 29.1% at December 31, 1995 (calculated based on the closing price
of the General Partner's Common Stock on December 31, 1995). The Company,
however, may from time to time reevaluate its borrowing policies in light of
then current economic conditions, relative costs to the Company of debt and
equity capital, market values of properties, general conditions in the market
for debt and equity securities, fluctuations in the fair market prices of the
Common Stock, growth and acquisition opportunities and other factors. The
Company may modify its borrowing policy and may increase or decrease its ratio
of debt to total market capitalization. To the extent that the General Partner
determines to seek additional capital, the General Partner or the Company may
raise such capital through additional equity offerings, debt financings or
retention of cash flow (subject to provisions in the Code requiring the
distribution by a REIT of a certain percentage of taxable income and taking
into account taxes that would be imposed on undistributed taxable income), or a
combination of these methods.
As long as the Company is in existence, the proceeds of the sale of Common
Stock by the General Partner will be contributed to the Company in exchange for
Units in the Company. The General Partner presently anticipates that any
additional borrowings would be made through the Company, although the General
Partner might incur borrowings that would be reloaned to the Company.
Borrowings may be in the form of bank borrowings, publicly and privately placed
debt instruments, or purchase money obligations to the sellers of properties,
any of which indebtedness may be unsecured or may be secured by any or all of
the assets of the General Partner, the Company, or any existing or new property
owning partnership.
On February 1, 1995, the Company closed a 39-month unsecured revolving line of
credit (the "Revolver") in the amount of $180,000,000 with a bank syndicate to
provide funding for future construction, acquisitions and general business
obligations. On June 7, 1995, the Company issued $50,000,000 of NML Notes and,
on September 29, 1995, the Company issued $50,000,000 of Wachovia Notes. The
General Partner may also determine to issue securities senior to the Common
Stock, including preferred stock and debt securities (either of which may be
convertible into capital stock or be accompanied by warrants to purchase
capital stock). The Company may also determine to finance acquisitions through
the exchange of properties or issuance of additional Units in the Company,
shares of Common Stock of the General Partner or other securities. The ability
to offer Units to buyers may result in a beneficial structure for the buyers
and may be an advantage for the Company, since certain investors may be limited
in the number of shares of Common Stock that they may purchase.
The Company has not established any limit on the number or amount of mortgages
that may be placed on any single property or on its portfolio as a whole, but
mortgage financing instruments often limit additional indebtedness on such
properties.
CONFLICT OF INTEREST POLICIES
The Company has adopted certain policies and entered into certain agreements
with Messrs. Williams and Glover designed to eliminate or minimize potential
conflicts of interest. The Company is subject to certain provisions of Georgia
law, which are designed to eliminate or minimize certain potential conflicts of
interest. However, there can be no assurance that these
-34-
<PAGE> 36
policies always will be successful in eliminating the influence of such
conflicts, and if they are not successful, decisions could be made that might
fail to reflect fully the interests of all partners.
Noncompetition Agreements.
Each of Messrs. Williams and Glover has entered into a noncompetition agreement
with the Company. These noncompetition agreements prohibit these individuals
from engaging directly or indirectly in the development, operation, management,
leasing or landscaping of any multifamily community for the period of his
employment by the Company and for two years thereafter.
Properties Subject to Options.
Messrs. Williams and Glover hold interests in two undeveloped properties owned
by partnerships and Mr. Williams holds an interest in a partnership that owns
an additional undeveloped property. The Company has an option to acquire each
of these properties at a price determined under the option agreement for a
period of four years after the closing of the Initial Offering. The options are
exercisable at the election of a majority of the disinterested directors of the
General Partner. In structuring any exercise of any of these options, the
Company will consider the effects of such exercise on REIT income and asset
qualification tests. The board of directors of the General Partner has adopted
a policy that no option will be exercised if the option price would exceed the
value of the property as determined at the time of exercise by an independent
appraisal.
Policies Applicable to All Directors of the General Partner.
Pursuant to Georgia law (the jurisdiction under which the General Partner is
organized), each director will be subject to restrictions on misappropriation
of corporate opportunities to himself or his affiliates learned of solely as a
result of his service as a member of the board of directors of the General
Partner. In addition, under Georgia law, a transaction effected by the General
Partner or any entity controlled by the General Partner in which a director or
certain related persons and entities of the director has a conflicting
interest, as defined thereunder, of such financial significance that it would
reasonably be expected to exert an influence on the director's judgment may not
be enjoined, set aside or give rise to damages on the grounds if such interest
if (a) the transaction is approved, after disclosure of the interest, by the
affirmative vote of a majority of the disinterested directors, or by the
affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast by disinterested shareholders,
or (b) the transaction is established to have been fair to the General Partner.
The Board has adopted a policy that all such conflicting interest transactions
must be authorized by a majority of the disinterested directors.
POLICIES WITH RESPECT TO OTHER ACTIVITIES
The General Partner has authority to offer shares of its capital stock or other
securities and to repurchase or otherwise reacquire its shares or any other
securities and may engage in such activities in the future, although it has no
present intention of repurchasing any of its shares of Common Stock. As of
June 1, 1996, the General Partner has issued shares of Common Stock to holders
of Units in the Company in connection with all redemptions. As of June 1, 1996,
the General Partner has issued shares of Common Stock in connection with the
formation of the General Partner, the Formation Transactions, the Second
Offering, the Third Offering, the Employee Stock Plan, the Employee Stock
Purchase Plan and the Dividend Reinvestment and Stock Purchase Plan. The
Company has no outstanding loans to other entities or persons, including its
officers and limited partners. The Company may in the future make loans to
joint ventures in which it participates in order to meet working capital needs.
The Company has not engaged in trading, underwriting or agency distribution or
sale of securities of other issuers, nor has the Company invested in the
securities of other issuers for the purpose of exercising control. The Company
intends to make investments in such a way that it will not be treated as an
investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940.
At all times, the General Partner intends to make investments in such a manner
as to be consistent with the requirements of the Code for the General Partner
to qualify as a REIT unless, because of changing circumstances or changes in
the Code (or in Treasury Regulations), the board of directors of the General
Partner, with the consent of a majority of the shareholders approving the
board's determination, determines that it is no longer in the best interests of
the General Partner to qualify as a REIT.

ITEM 12. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS
The Restated and Amended Agreement of Limited Partnership of the Company
provides for indemnification of the General Partner and the officers and
directors of the General Partner to the same extent indemnification is provided
to officers and directors of the General Partner in its Articles of
Incorporation, and limits the liability of the General Partner to the Company
and the Company's partners to the same extent liability of officers and
directors of the General Partner to the General Partner and its shareholders is
limited under the General Partner's Articles of Incorporation.
As permitted by the Georgia Business Corporation Code, the General Partner's
Articles of Incorporation provide that a director shall not be personally
liable to the General Partner or its shareholders for monetary damages for
breach of duty of care or other duty as a director, except that such provision
shall not eliminate or limit the liability of a director (a) for any
appropriation, in violation of his duties, of any business opportunity of the
General Partner, (b) for acts or omissions that involve intentional misconduct
or a knowing violation of law, (c) for unlawful corporate distributions or (d)
for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal
benefit. The Articles of Incorporation of the General Partner further provide
that if the Georgia Business Corporation Code is amended to authorize corporate
action further eliminating or limiting the personal liability of directors,
then the liability of a director of the General Partner shall be eliminated or
limited to the fullest extent permitted by the Georgia Business Corporation
Code, as amended.
Under Article VI of the General Partner's Bylaws, the General Partner is
required to indemnify to the fullest extent permitted by the Georgia Business
Corporation Code, any individual made a party to a proceeding (as defined in
the Georgia Business Corporation Code) because he is or was a director or
officer against liability (as defined in the Georgia Business Corporation
Code), incurred in the proceeding, if he acted in a manner he believed in good
faith to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company and, in the
case of any criminal proceeding, he had no reasonable cause to believe his
conduct was unlawful. The General Partner is required to pay for or reimburse
the reasonable expenses incurred by a director or officer who is a party to a
proceeding in advance of final disposition of the proceeding if:
(a) Such person furnishes the General Partner a written
affirmation of his good faith belief that he has met the
standard of conduct set forth above; and
(b) Such person furnishes the General Partner a written
undertaking executed personally on his behalf to repay any
advances if it is ultimately determined that he is not
entitled to indemnification.
The written undertaking required by paragraph (b) above must be an unlimited
general obligation of such person but need not be secured and may be accepted
without reference to financial ability to make repayment.
The right to indemnification and the payment of expenses incurred in defending
a proceeding in advance of its final disposition conferred in Article VI of the
General Partner's Bylaws are not exclusive of any other right which any person
may have under any statute, provision of the General Partner's Articles of
Incorporation, provision of the General Partner's Bylaws, agreement, vote of
shareholders or disinterested directors or otherwise.

management of Post Apartment Homes, L.P.; our responsibility is to express an

POST APARTMENT HOMES, L.P.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS)
1. ORGANIZATION AND FORMATION OF THE COMPANY
ORGANIZATION AND FORMATION OF THE COMPANY
Post Apartment Homes, L.P. (the "Company" or "Partnership"), a Georgia limited
partnership, was formed on July 22, 1993 to conduct the business of developing,
leasing and managing upscale multi-family apartment communities for Post
Properties, Inc. ("PPI" or the "General Partner").
The General Partner is a self-administered and self managed equity real estate
investment trust (a "REIT"). On July 22, 1993 PPI completed an initial public
offering of 10,580,000 shares of Common Stock (the "Initial Offering") and a
business combination involving entities under varying common ownership (the
"Formation Transactions"). The entities included in the business combination
are collectively referred to as Post Properties Group ("PPG"). On February 7,
1994, PPI completed a second public offering of 3,000,000 shares of its Common
Stock (the "Second Offering"). On October 20, 1995 PPI completed a third
public offering of 3,710,500 additional shares of its Common Stock (the "Third
Offering"). Proceeds from the Initial Offering were (i) used by PPI to acquire
a controlling interest in the Company, PPI's principal operating subsidiary,
which was formed to succeed to substantially all of the ownership interest in a
portfolio of 40 Post(R) multifamily apartment communities (the "Initial
Properties"), all of which were developed by the Company and owned by
affiliates of the Company, and to the development, leasing, landscaping and
management business of the Company and certain other affiliates and (ii)
contributed by PPI to the Company to pay down existing indebtedness on certain
communities. Proceeds of the Second and Third Offerings were contributed by
PPI to the Company and used by the Company to pay down existing indebtedness.
PPI is the sole general partner of, and controls a majority of the limited
partnership interests in, the Company. PPI conducts all of its business
through the Company and its subsidiaries.
At December 31, 1995, PPI controlled the Company as the sole general partner,
with a 1% interest, and as the holder of an aggregate 80.8% interest in the
Company. The other limited partners of the Company are those persons
(including certain officers and directors of PPI) who, at the time of the
Initial Offering, elected to hold all or a portion of their interest in PPI in
the form of units in the Company ("Units") rather than receiving shares of
PPI's Common Stock. Each Unit may be redeemed by the holder thereof for either
one share of PPI's Common Stock or cash equal to the fair market value thereof
at the time of such redemption, at the option of PPI. PPI has issued Common
Stock in connection with all redemptions to date. With each redemption of
outstanding Units for PPI's Common Stock, PPI's percentage ownership interest
in the Company will increase. In addition, whenever PPI issues shares of
Common Stock, PPI will contribute any net proceeds therefrom to the Company and
the Company will issue an equivalent number of Units to PPI.
According to the First Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership
between PPI and listed limited partners dated July 22, 1993, the "Partnership
Agreement", the Partnership's items of net income, gain and deduction are
allocated to the partners for capital account purposes, according to each
partners' respective percentage interests. Net losses are allocated to the
partners in accordance with their respective percentage interest, unless such
allocation would result in, or increase, an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit,
as defined in the Partnership Agreement, as of the end of the taxable year.
Distributions to unitholders are made to enable dividends to be made to PPI's
shareholders under PPI's dividend policy. The Federal income tax laws require
that PPI, as a REIT, distribute 95% of its ordinary taxable income. The
Company makes distributions on behalf of PPI to satisfy this requirement.
The Company currently owns and manages or is in the process of developing
apartment communities located in Atlanta, Tampa, Northern Virginia, Nashville,
South Florida and Charlotte metropolitan areas. Approximately 75.0% and 10.3%
(on a unit basis) of the Company's properties are located in the Atlanta and
Tampa metropolitan areas, respectively.

BASIS OF PRESENTATION
For the periods after the Initial Offering, the accompanying consolidated
financial statements include the consolidated accounts of the Company and its
subsidiaries. For the periods prior to the Initial Offering, the accompanying
consolidated financial statements reflect the combined accounts of PPG. For
1993, the year of the Formation Transactions, predecessor and successor
operations are combined since there was a high degree of common ownership
before and after the transaction.
The Formation Transactions were structured to allow the partners and owners of
the entities in PPG the option of retaining their existing ownership interest,
receiving shares of the common stock of PPI, or receiving Units. The entities
in PPG were either limited partnerships or S corporations with a high degree of
common ownership. Purchase accounting was applied to the acquisition of all
non-controlled interests in which cash consideration was paid. The acquisition
of all other interests was accounted for as a reorganization of entities under
common control and, accordingly, was reflected at historical cost in a manner
similar to that in pooling of interests accounting.
All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in
consolidation.
Certain items in the Consolidated Financial Statements were reclassified for
comparative purposes.
UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 1996 and for the
consolidated three months ended March 31, 1996 and 1995 are unaudited; however,
in the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting solely of normal
recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated
financial statements for these interim periods have been included. The results
for the interim period ended March 31, 1996 are not necessarily indicative of
the results to be obtained for the full fiscal year ending December 31, 1996.
NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In the first quarter of 1996, the Company intends to adopt SFAS No. 121,
"Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets
to be Disposed of". This statement requires that long-lived assets and certain
identified intangibles to be held and used by an entity be reviewed for
impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the
carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. The statement requires the
use of undiscounted estimated gross cash flows expected from the asset's
operations and eventual disposition. If the sum of the expected future cash
flows are less than the carrying value of the asset, an impairment loss is
recognized based on the fair value of the asset, less cost to sell. The
current estimated undiscounted future operating cash flows and eventual
proceeds from disposition of each of the Company's real estate assets are
greater than the carrying value of each of these assets. As a result,
management anticipates there should be no effect on the Company's consolidated
statement of operations or partners' equity upon adoption.
During 1996, PPI will adopt SFAS 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation". This statement provides entities a choice between fair value
based or intrinsic value based, PPI's existing method, accounting for stock
based compensation such as stock options and employee stock purchase plans.
Entities electing to remain with the existing method of accounting must make
pro forma disclosures of net income and earnings per share as if the fair value
method had been applied. PPI intends to choose the existing method of
accounting for its stock-based compensation plans. As a result, this statement
will not have a material effect on the Company's consolidated statements of
operations or partners' equity upon adoption.
REAL ESTATE ASSETS AND DEPRECIATION
Real estate assets are stated at the lower of depreciated cost or net
realizable value. Ordinary repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred;
major replacements and betterments are capitalized and depreciated over their
estimated useful lives. Depreciation is computed on a straight-line basis over
the useful lives of the properties (buildings and components and related land
improvements -- 20-40 years; furniture, fixtures and equipment -- 5 years).

REVENUE RECOGNITION
Rental -- Residential properties are leased under operating leases with terms
of generally one year or less. Rental income is recognized when earned, which
is not materially different from revenue recognition on a straight line basis.
Property management and landscaping services -- Income is recognized when
earned for property management and landscaping services provided to third
parties.
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
For purposes of the statement of cash flows, all investments purchased with an
original maturity of three months or less are considered to be cash
equivalents.
RESTRICTED CASH
Restricted cash generally is comprised of resident security deposits for
communities located in Florida and required maintenance reserves for
communities located in DeKalb County, Georgia. At December 31, 1994, restricted
cash also included amounts received from the advance refunding of certain bond
indebtedness which was held in escrow to repay the original bonds on January 1,
1995. When these bonds were retired, a portion ($3,150) of the defeasance
escrow was released back to the Company.
ORGANIZATION COSTS AND AMORTIZATION
Certain entities included in PPG incurred legal fees and other costs associated
with their formation. These costs were capitalized and amortized over 60
months. However, in connection with the Formation Transactions all unamortized
portions of these costs were written off.
DEFERRED FINANCING COSTS
Deferred financing costs are amortized using the interest method over the terms
of the related debt.
INTEREST AND REAL ESTATE TAXES
Interest and real estate taxes incurred during the construction period are
capitalized and depreciated over the lives of the constructed assets. Interest
paid (net of capitalized amounts of $5,653, $3,427 and $666 during 1995, 1994
and 1993, respectively, and interest rate protection receipts of $1,539 and
$384 during 1995 and 1994) aggregated $28,343, $21,234 and $41,776 for the
years ended December 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively.
INTEREST RATE SWAP AGREEMENTS
Swap receipts and payments under interest rate swap agreements designated as a
hedge are recognized as adjustments to interest expense when earned and are
reflected as operating activities in the statement of cash flows. Settlement
payments or receipts on terminated interest rate swap agreements are deferred
and amortized over the remaining original period of the swap, as long as the
hedged borrowing is still outstanding. Settlement payments or receipts on
terminated interest rate swap agreements are reflected as financing activities
in the statement of cash flows.

(DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS)
INTEREST RATE PROTECTION AGREEMENTS
Premiums paid to purchase interest rate protection agreements are capitalized
and amortized over the terms of those agreements using the interest method.
Unamortized premiums are included in other assets in the consolidated balance
sheet. Amounts receivable under the interest rate protection agreements are
accrued as a reduction of interest expense.
PER UNIT DATA
Earnings per unit with respect to the Company for the years ended December 31,
1995, 1994 and 1993 is computed based upon the weighted average number of Units
outstanding during the period.
PARTNERS' CAPITAL CONTRIBUTIONS, DISTRIBUTIONS AND PROFIT AND LOSS WITH RESPECT
TO ENTITIES INCLUDED IN PPG
Partners' capital contributions, distributions and profit and loss are
allocated in accordance with the terms of individual partnership agreements.
Generally, these items are allocated in proportion to respective ownership
interest. Certain agreements also provide for preference return to limited
partners.
USE OF ESTIMATES IN FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions
that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.

CONVENTIONAL MORTGAGES PAYABLE
Conventional mortgages payable were comprised of five loans at December 31,
1995 and twenty-one loans at December 31, 1994 each of which is collateralized
by an apartment community included in real estate assets. The mortgages payable
are generally due in monthly installments of interest only and mature at
various dates through 1998. Fixed rate mortgages payable aggregated $44,145 and
$57,761 at December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively, ranged from approximately
6.0% to 8.8% (weighted average of 7.9% at December 31, 1995). Variable rate
mortgages payable aggregated $14,400 and $122,608 at December 31, 1995 and
1994, respectively. The interest rate was at .85% above the London Interbank
Offered Rate ("LIBOR") at December 31, 1995. At December 31, 1995, LIBOR
ranged from 5.43% to 5.69% for one, three, six, and twelve month indices.
On March 15, 1996, fixed rate mortgages totaling $25,100 were repaid with
proceeds drawn on the Revolver.
BOND INDEBTEDNESS
Certain of the apartment communities are encumbered to secure tax-exempt
housing bonds. Such bonds are generally payable in monthly or semi-annual
installments of interest only and mature at various dates through 2025. Bond
indebtedness aggregating $105,379 and $109,229 at December 31, 1995 and 1994,
respectively, have fixed rates of interest ranging from 7.40% to 8.25%
(weighted average of 7.53% at December 31, 1995). Floating rate indebtedness
reissued in 1995 in the aggregate amount of $39,795 at December 31, 1995, bears
interest at the "AAA" non-AMT tax exempt rate, set weekly, which was 5.05% at
December 31, 1995 (average of 3.87% for 1995). The Company pays certain credit
enhancement fees with respect to such bonds, ranging from .575% to 1.075% of
the amount of such bonds or the amount of such letters of credit, as the case
may be.
On June 29, 1995, the Company replaced the bank letters of credit providing
credit enhancement for twelve of its outstanding tax-exempt bonds and three of
its economically defeased tax-exempt bonds. Under an agreement with the
Federal National
F-11
<PAGE> 51
POST APARTMENT HOMES, L.P.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS)
Mortgage Association ("FNMA"), FNMA now provides, directly or indirectly
through other bank letters of credit, credit enhancement for such bonds. Under
the terms of such agreement, FNMA has provided replacement credit enhancement
through 2025 for four bond issues, aggregating $39,795, which were concurrently
reissued, and has agreed, subject to certain conditions, to provide credit
enhancement through June 1, 2025 for up to an additional $114,733 ($9,354 of
which is currently defeased) with respect to eleven other bond issues which
mature and may be refunded in 1996 through 1998. Under this agreement, on
January 1, 1996, the Post Mill bonds were refunded in the amount of $12,880
($3,864 of which had previously been defeased) with an issue enhanced by FNMA
and maturing on June 1, 2025. The agreement also contains a provision whereby
the Company may request FNMA to evaluate the enhancement of an additional
$81,352 of bonds which are currently defeased and not part of the agreement.
The agreement with FNMA contains representations, covenants, and events of
default customary to such secured loans.
DEBT DEFEASED
The Company applied a portion of the net proceeds of the Initial Offering and
Second Offering to pay in full thirteen fixed rate obligations totaling
$132,470 and economically defease in full six tax exempt bond financings
totaling $52,700. In addition, the Company paid $43,108 to partially prepay
eleven variable rate obligations and $51,956 to economically defease portions
of eight tax exempt bond financings. The above amounts do not include
aggregate prepayment penalties and defeasance escrow requirements in excess of
principal defeased of $18,077. The balance of debt fully or partially
economically defeased aggregated $90,706 at December 31, 1995.
LINES OF CREDIT
On February 1, 1995, the Company closed a 39-month unsecured revolving line of
credit (the "Revolver") in the amount of $180,000 with a bank syndicate. The
line initially bore interest at LIBOR plus 1.50% or prime minus .25%. On March
1, 1996 the Revolver was amended to reduce the interest rate of LIBOR plus
0.95% or prime minus .25% and to extend the maturity to May 1, 1999. At
December 31, 1995, LIBOR ranged from 5.43% to 5.69% for one, three, six and
twelve months indices and the prime rate was at 8.50%. The amendment also
provides for the rate to be adjusted up or down based on changes in the
Company's rating. On June 4, 1996, the Company received a credit rating
upgrade which further reduced the interest rate on the Revolver to LIBOR +
0.80%. The facility contains customary representations, covenants and events
of default, including covenants which restrict the ability of the Company to
make distributions, in excess of stated amounts, which in turn restricts the
discretion of the General Partner to declare and pay dividends. In general,
during any fiscal year the Company may only distribute up to 100% of the
Company's consolidated income available for distribution (as defined in the
agreement) exclusive of distributions of capital gains for such year. The
agreement contains exceptions to these limitations to allow the Company to make
any distributions to allow the General Partner to maintain its status as a
REIT. The Company does not anticipate that this covenant will adversely effect
its ability to make distributions, or PPI's ability to declare dividends under
its current policy. At December 31, 1995 the Company had $46,000 outstanding
under the Revolver with $134,000 available under the Revolver to fund future
development and general corporate obligations.
In addition, the Company has a $3,000 facility to provide letters of credit for
general business purposes.
SENIOR UNSECURED NOTES
On June 7, 1995, the Company privately placed $50,000 of unsecured senior notes
with The Northwestern Mutual Life Insurance Company. The notes were in two
tranches: the first, totalling $30,000, carries an interest rate of 8.21% per
annum (1.25% over the corresponding treasury rate on the date such
F-12

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS)
rate was set) and matures on June 7, 2000; and the second, totalling $20,000
carries an interest rate of 8.37% per annum (1.35% over the corresponding
treasury rate on the date such rate was set) and matures on June 7, 2002.
Proceeds from the notes were used to reduce other secured indebtedness and to
pay down the Revolver. The note agreements pursuant to which the notes were
purchased contain customary representations, covenants and events of default
similar to those contained in the note agreement for the Revolver.
On September 29, 1995, the Company privately placed $50,000 of unsecured senior
notes with Wachovia Bank of Georgia, N.A. (the "Wachovia Notes"). The Wachovia
Notes were in two tranches: the first tranche, aggregating $25,000, will
mature on September 29, 1999; the second tranche, aggregating $25,000 will
mature on September 29, 2001. Both tranches bear interest at 7.15% per annum
(1.10% over the corresponding treasury rate on the date such rate was set).
Proceeds from the issuance of the Wachovia Notes were used to reduce
indebtedness outstanding on the Revolver. The credit agreement for the notes
contain representations, covenants and events of default similar to those
contained in the note agreement for the Revolver.
The aggregate maturities of the above conventional mortgages payable, bond
indebtedness, line of credit and senior unsecured notes (after giving effect to
the refunding of the Post Mill bonds and the Post Canyon bonds and the
extension of the Revolver) are as follows:

INTEREST RATE SWAP AGREEMENTS
During 1992, PPG entered into six interest rate swap agreements with a
financial institution to effectively change the interest cost on certain debt
from fixed to variable rates. The agreements, with a total notional principal
amount aggregating $99,425, were terminated during 1992. At termination, PPG
received payments aggregating $6,782, of which $331 was deferred at December
31, 1995.
INTEREST RATE PROTECTION AGREEMENTS
As discussed in Note 1, the Company used proceeds from the Initial Offering to
purchase certain interest rate protection agreements (aggregate premiums
amounted to $3,265) that will eliminate the Company's exposure to increases in
LIBOR over 3.50% per annum and increases in TENR(R) over 3.00% per annum on its
long-term debt. The agreements provide interest rate protection on variable
rate long-term indebtedness up to $62,395 with maturities from six to 24 months.
The Company is exposed to credit losses in the event of nonperformance by the
counterparties to its interest rate caps and nonderivative financial assets but
has no off-balance sheet credit risk of accounting loss. The Company
anticipates, however, the counterparties will be able to fully satisfy their
obligations under the contracts. The Company does not obtain collateral or
other security to support financial instruments subject to credit risk but
monitors the credit standing of counterparties.

PLEDGED ASSETS
The aggregate net book value at December 31, 1995 of property pledged as
collateral for indebtedness amounted to approximately $267,697.
EXTRAORDINARY ITEM
The extraordinary item for the year ended December 31, 1995 resulted from the
write-off of deferred financing costs on the mortgage debt satisfied.
The extraordinary item for the year ended December 31, 1994 resulted from
mortgage prepayment penalties and defeasance escrow requirements ($4,274), the
administrative costs for bond indebtedness defeased ($485), the write-off of
deferred financing costs on the mortgage debt satisfied ($1,139) and the
recognition of the gain previously deferred ($1,485) from the termination of
the interest rate swap agreements for which the related debt has been repaid or
defeased.
The extraordinary item for the year ended December 31, 1993 resulted from
mortgage prepayment penalties and defeasance escrow requirements ($13,803), the
administrative costs for bond indebtedness defeased ($565), the write-off of
deferred financing costs on the mortgage debt satisfied ($1,763) and the
recognition of the gain previously deferred ($2,503) from the termination of
the interest rate swap agreements for which the related debt has been repaid or
defeased.
4. INCOME TAXES
Prior to the Initial Offering, the entities included in the combined financial
statements were either limited partnerships or S Corporations and were not
subject to Federal and state income taxes. Accordingly, no recognition has
been given to income taxes in the accompanying financial statements of PPG
since the income or loss of the entities were included in the tax returns of
the individual owners. The tax returns of the entities are subject to
examination by Federal and state taxing authorities. If such examinations
result in adjustments to distributive shares of taxable income or loss, the tax
liability of the owners would be adjusted accordingly.
The Company is a partnership and, as a result, all income or losses of the
Partnership are allocated to the partners of the Partnership for inclusion in
their respective income tax returns. Accordingly, no provision or benefit for
income taxes has been made in the accompanying financial statements.
During 1994, Post Services sold three parcels of land. One of the parcels of
land was sold to the Company resulting in an intercompany gain which was
eliminated in the consolidated financial statements. The other two parcels were
sold to a third party resulting in a pre-tax gain of $2,832. As a result of
these transactions, Post Services recorded and paid income tax expense of
$1,338 in the current period. Income tax expense for the period ending December
31, 1994 was determined using current statutory federal and state tax rates.
As of December 31, 1995 the net basis for Federal income tax purposes, taking
into account the special allocation of gain to the partners contributing
property to the Company, exceeded the net assets as reported in the Company's
consolidated financial statements by approximately $167,718.

5. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
The Company provides landscaping services for executive officers, directors of
PPI and other related parties. For the years ended December 31, 1995, 1994 and
1993, the Company received landscaping fees of $1,758, $1,968 and $660 for such
services. These amounts include reimbursements of direct expenses in the amount
of $1,111, $1,507 and $341, which are not included in landscape services
revenue; accordingly, these transactions resulted in the Company recording
landscape services net fees in excess of direct expenses of $647, $461 and $319
in the accompanying financial statements for the years ended December 31, 1995,
1994 and 1993, respectively.
The Company provides accounting and administrative services to entities
controlled by certain executive officers of PPI. Fees under this arrangement
aggregated $32, $60 and $179 for the years ended December 31, 1995, 1994 and
1993, respectively.
During the year ended December 31, 1995 the Company completed a contract to
assist in the development of an apartment complex being constructed by a former
executive and current shareholder of PPI. Fees under this arrangement were
$317 in 1995 and $140 in 1994.
On May 22, 1995, the Company purchased for a nominal amount the outstanding
capital stock of A.T. Aviation, Inc. ("A.T. Aviation"), an entity formed and
owned by John A. Williams, Chairman of the Board of Directors of PPI, and John
T. Glover, President and a Director of PPI. In connection with the
acquisition, the Company assumed certain obligations of A.T. Aviation. At the
time of the acquisition, A.T. Aviation had entered into a purchase agreement
for a used aircraft, leased certain property improvements related thereto, and
obtained a line of credit in the amount of $7,500 to fund such acquisitions.
In connection with the acquisition, the Company assumed and repaid such line of
credit, which had been guaranteed by such officers, and such line and
guarantees were terminated.
6. EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS
The employees of the Company are participants in a profit sharing plan pursuant
to Section 401 of the Internal Revenue Code. Contributions are made based on a
discretionary amount determined by the Company's management. Contributions, if
any, are allocated to each participant based on the relative compensation of
the participant to the compensation of all participants. Contributions of $145,
$147 and $136 were made in 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively.
During 1995, PPI adopted the 1995 Non-Qualified Employee Stock Purchase Plan
("ESPP") to encourage stock ownership in PPI by eligible directors of PPI and
employees of the Company. To participate in the ESPP, (i) directors of PPI
must not be employed by the Company or PPI and must have been a member of the
Board of Directors of PPI for at least one month and (ii) an employee must have
been employed full-time by the Company for at least one month. The purchase
price of shares of common stock of PPI under the ESPP is currently equal to 85%
of the lesser of the closing price per share of common stock of PPI on the
first or last day of the trading period, as defined.
PPI has established an Employee Stock Plan (the "Plan") through which key
employees or officers of the Company receive options to acquire common stock of
PPI. Option prices are equal to the market value of PPI's Common Stock at the
date of grant. As a result, no compensation expense has been recognized by the
Company related to the Plan.

7. DIVIDEND REINVESTMENT PLAN
The Dividend Reinvestment Plan ("DRIP") is available to all shareholders of
PPI. Under the DRIP, shareholders may elect for their dividends to be used to
acquire additional shares of PPI's Common Stock directly from PPI, for 95% of
the market price on the date of purchase.
8. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
LAND, OFFICE AND EQUIPMENT LEASES
The Company is party to two ground leases relating to an operating community
with terms expiring in years 2040 and 2043 and to office, equipment and other

CONTINGENCIES
The Company is party to various legal actions which are incidental to its

adverse affect on the consolidated balance sheets and statements of operations.
9. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The following disclosures of estimated fair value were determined by management
using available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies.
Considerable judgment is necessary to interpret market data and develop
estimated fair value. Accordingly, the estimates presented herein are not
necessarily indicative of the amounts the Company could realize on disposition
of the financial instruments. The use of different market assumptions and/or
estimation methodologies may have a material effect on the estimated fair value
amounts.
Cash equivalents, rents and landscape service receivables, interest rate
protection agreement, accounts payable, accrued expenses, notes payable and
other liabilities are carried at amounts which reasonably approximate their
fair values.
Disclosure about fair value of financial instruments are based on pertinent
information available to management as of December 31, 1995. Although
management is not aware of any factors that would significantly affect the
reasonable fair

(DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS)
value amounts, such amounts have not been comprehensively revalued for purposes
of these financial statements since that date and current estimates of fair
value may differ significantly from the amounts presented herein.
10. EARNINGS PER UNIT
Earnings (loss) per Unit for income before extraordinary item and net income
(loss) has been computed by dividing income before extraordinary item and net
income (loss) by the weighted average number of Units outstanding. For
purposes of this weighted average calculation, Units issued at the date of the
Initial Offering in connection with the exchange for interests in entities
included in PPG are treated as if such Units were outstanding at the beginning
of the period. Units issued to PPI for subsequent contributions are assumed
outstanding from the date of issuance. The weighted average number of Units
outstanding utilized in the calculations are 23,541,639, 22,125,890 and
13,574,767 for the years ended December 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively.
The non-recurring transaction expense of $2,783 recognized in the year ended
December 31, 1993 had the effect of reducing earnings per Unit by $.21 based on
the weighted average number of Units outstanding.
The non-recurring extraordinary items recognized in the years ended December
31, 1995, 1994 and 1993 had the effect of reducing earnings per unit by $.05,
$.20 and $1.01, respectively, based on the weighted average number of units
outstanding.
11. SUPPLEMENTAL CASH FLOW INFORMATION
Non-cash investing and financing activities for the years ended December 31,
1995, 1994 and 1993 are as follows:
(a) As discussed in Note 1, purchase accounting was applied during 1993 to the
acquisition of certain noncontrolled interests resulting in an increase of
$53,763 in the historical cost basis of the related real estate assets.
(b) In conjunction with the Initial Offering and Formation Transactions as
discussed in Note 1, advances due to shareholders and partners in the
amount of $3,426 were exchanged for Units or shares in PPI.
(c) The Company committed to distribute $13,091, $10,094, and $8,744 for the
