Item 5. Other Events
Colonial Realty Limited Partnership (CRLP), a Delaware limited partnership,
is the Operating Partnership of Colonial Properties Trust, an Alabama real
estate investment trust whose common shares are listed on the New York Stock
Exchange under the symbol CLP. CRLP owns and operates commercial real estate in
the southern United States. Since December 31, 1997, CRLP has acquired two
office properties in Alabama, one multifamily apartment community in South
Carolina, and a retail property in Florida (the Acquired Properties). The
following is a summary of the material terms of the transactions.
In accordance with Rule 3-14 of Regulation S-X, financial statements with
respect to the retail property in Florida are being filed to keep CRLP's
shelf registration statements current.
Terms of Acquisition
The four Acquired Properties during 1998 contain a total of 200 apartment units,
1.1 million square feet of retail space, and 339,000 square feet of office space
and were purchased at a combined purchase price of $144.7 million. The
acquisitions increase CRLP's multifamily portfolio to 14,003 apartment units,
increase CRLP's retail portfolio to 11.6 million square feet, and increase
CRLP's office portfolio to 2.2 million square feet. In connection with the
acquisition of one of the Acquired Properties, CRLP assumed an existing mortgage
totaling $5.7 million. The remainder of the purchase price of the Acquired
Properties was financed through advances on CRLP's unsecured line of credit.
Description of
Acquired Properties
Perimeter Corporate Park--Huntsville, Alabama
On January 9, 1998, CRLP acquired Perimeter Corporate Park, an office park
comprised of two multi-tenant buildings in Huntsville, Alabama totaling 233,000
square feet of leasable area. Major tenants include Mevatec, Schafer
Corporation, Computer Systems Technology, EER Systems Corporation, and Silicon

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
To the Board of Directors
Colonial Properties Holding Company, Inc.
We have audited the Historical Summary of Revenues and Direct Operating Expenses
of the Orlando Fashion Square (the Property) as defined in Note 1 for the year
ended December 31, 1997. This Historical Summary is the responsibility of the
Property's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the
Historical Summary based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards.
Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether the Historical Summary is free of material misstatement.
An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts
and disclosures in the Historical Summary. An audit also includes assessing the
accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well
as evaluating the overall presentation of the Historical Summary. We believe our
audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
The accompanying Historical Summary of Revenues and Direct Operating Expenses
was prepared for the purpose of complying with the rules and regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission for inclusion in the Form 8-K of Colonial
Realty Limited Partnership, and is not intended to be a complete presentation of
the revenues and expenses of the Property.
In our opinion, the Historical Summary referred to above presents fairly, in all
material respects, the revenues and direct operating expenses of the Orlando
Fashion Square for the year ended December 31, 1997 in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles.

1. Accounting Policies
Description--The accompanying Historical Summary consists of the revenues
and direct operating expenses of the Orlando Fashion Square, a retail mall
(the Property) located in Orlando, Florida. Colonial Realty Limited
Partnership purchased the Property for a total of approximately $104
million.
Basis of Presentation--The Historical Summary of Revenues and Direct
Operating Expenses includes gross operating revenues, exclusive of
interest income, and direct operating expenses, exclusive of mortgage and
other interest expense, depreciation, amortization, management fees,
non-recurring administrative expenses, and federal, state, and local
income taxes.
Income Recognition--Rental income attributable to leases is recognized on
a straight-line basis over the terms of the leases.
Use of Estimates--The preparation of financial statements in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues and
expenses during the report period. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.
2. Leasing Operations
Minimum base rentals to be received in future periods under noncancelable
operating leases extending beyond one year at December 31, 1997, are as

3. Ground Lease Commitment
The Property leases the land on which it is located. The lease expires in
November 2092. The annual ground rent expense consists of fixed minimum
annual rent (MAR) plus additional rent, as defined in the lease and
related amendments. The additional rent consists of 5% of MAR, 10% of the
excess of renewal rents over initial MAR, 10% of the percentage rents paid
by tenants who also pay MAR and 7.5% of the percentage rents paid by
tenants who do not pay MAR. The minimum annual rent payments are equal to
the average minimum base rents due over the immediately preceding 3 years
provided that such payments not decline more than $10,000 from one year to
the next nor decline for three consecutive years. In 1997, ground rent
expense of $539,414 was recorded as a component of general operating
expenses.

(B) Includes the acquisition of two of the four Acquired Properties; Ashley
Plantation for a purchase price of $13.7 million, and the Orlando Fashion
Square for a purchase price of $104.0 million. These property acquisitions
were financed through advances on CRLP's unsecured line of credit. The
remaining two Acquired Properties were purchased prior to March 31, 1998,
and therefore are already included in the March 31, 1998 historical
results. Also includes the cash contributions received from Colonial
Properties Trust's equity issuance of 3,046,400 common shares of beneficial
interest issued in April and May 1998. The net proceeds of the equity
offerings were used to repay outstanding indebtedness.

STATEMENTS OF OPERATIONS
For the Year Ended December 31, 1997 and
the Three Months Ended March 31, 1998
(Unaudited)
The following unaudited pro forma consolidated condensed statements of
operations reflect significant transactions effected by CRLP during 1997 and
1998 which includes the purchase of the four Acquired Properties mentioned
elsewhere herein. In addition to the Acquired Properties, the following
significant transactions are reflected in the unaudited pro forma consolidated
condensed statements of operations: (i) CRLP's cash contributions received from
Colonial Properties Trust's equity offerings completed in February, March, April
and May 1998, and January, July, November and December 1997 (ii) CRLP's debt
offerings completed in January, July, August and September 1997 and (iii) CRLP's
1997 acquisition and disposition activity, which included the acquisition of 25
properties, the disposition of seven properties, and the purchase of additional
interests in two properties (the 1997 Properties) which are discussed in CRLP's
filings on Forms 8-K filed on July 21, 1997, September 17, 1997, and December
10, 1997. The pro forma effects of all such transactions are included in the
unaudited pro forma consolidated condensed statements of operations assuming the
transactions had occurred as of January 1, 1997 and assuming CRLP used the
proceeds of the equity and debt offerings to repay outstanding indebtedness (see
notes to unaudited pro forma consolidated condensed statements of operations).
These unaudited pro forma consolidated condensed statements of operations are
not necessarily indicative of the actual results of operations had the
transactions been completed as of January 1, 1997, nor do they purport to
represent the future results of the operations of CRLP. CRLP is not aware of any
material factors relating to the Acquired Properties, other than as disclosed in
the footnotes to the unaudited pro forma consolidated condensed statements of
operations, which would cause the combined historical summaries of revenues and
direct operating expenses not to be necessarily indicative of future operating
results.
The unaudited pro forma consolidated condensed statements of operations and
related notes should be read in conjunction with the information appearing in
CRLP's 1997 Financial Statements as filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission on Form 10-K and the notes thereto and with CRLP's March 31, 1998
Quarterly Report as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Form
10-Q and with the financial statements included therein and the notes thereto.
In management's opinion, all adjustments necessary to reflect the effects of
these transactions have been made.

to date. Such allocation may be adjusted pending receipt of additional
information. Depreciation has been computed using the straight line
method with cost recovery periods of 7 to 40 years.
(3) Includes interest expense incurred from sources of funds used to
finance the acquisition of the Acquired Properties including advances
on CRLP's unsecured line of credit, net of the effect of the
