1.       BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited consolidated and combined financial statements have
been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for
interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article
10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information
and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting
of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have
been included. Operating results for the six month period ended June 30, 1998
are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year
ended December 31, 1998. For further information, refer to the consolidated
financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Prime Group Realty
Trust's annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1997
as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 31, 1998 ("Form
10-K").

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

2.   FORMATION OF THE COMPANY

Prime Group Realty Trust (the "Company") was formed in Maryland on July 21, 1997
to succeed to and expand the office and industrial real estate business of The
Prime Group, Inc. ("PGI"), which consisted of a portfolio of five office and
seventeen industrial properties, as well as a parking garage facility and the
office and industrial real estate ownership, acquisition, development, leasing
and management businesses historically conducted by PGI (the "PGI Properties").
On November 17, 1997, the Company completed its initial public offering (the
"IPO" or "Offering") of 12.98 million common shares of beneficial interest
("Common Shares") and the private placement of 2.0 million Series A Cumulative
Convertible Preferred Shares ("Convertible Preferred Shares") of beneficial
interest (the "Convertible Preferred Share Private Placement"). The Company's
assets are owned and controlled by, and all of its operations are conducted
through, Prime Group Realty, L.P. (the "Operating Partnership") and other
subsidiaries. The Operating Partnership also sold 4,569,893 common units in the
Operating Partnership for $85.0 million to Primestone Investment Partners, L.P.
("Primestone Joint Venture"), a joint venture between PGI and certain affiliates
of Blackstone Real Estate Advisors, L.P., BRE/Primestone Investment L.L.C. and
BRE/Primestone Joint Venture in exchange for the contribution of 3,375,000 of
its common units in the Operating Partnership received from the contribution of
its interest in the PGI Properties to the Operating Partnership.

Pursuant to financing arrangements for the properties, the partnerships or
limited liability companies which are subsidiaries of the Operating Partnership
and own the properties often have, as a partner or member, a separate corporate
subsidiary of the Company whose board of directors includes an independent
director that, as required by such financing arrangements, must approve the
commencement of any voluntary dissolution or insolvency proceeding with respect
to such subsidiary.

3.   INCOME TAXES

Commencing with the period ended December 31, 1997, it is the intent of the
Company to qualify as a real estate investment trust ("REIT") under the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. As a REIT, the Company generally will not be
subject to federal income tax to the extent that it distributes at least 95% of
its REIT taxable income to its shareholders. REITs are subject to a number of
organizational and operational requirements. If the Company fails to qualify as
a REIT in any taxable year, the Company will be subject to federal income tax
(including any applicable alternative minimum tax) on its taxable income at
regular corporate tax rates.

4.   USE OF ESTIMATES

The preparation of the 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 revenue and expenses during the reporting
period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

5.   RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

During the period from January 1, 1998 through June 30, 1998 the Company
acquired the following eight office properties:

The contracts require purchase of an additional 132.7 acres over a three to five
year period for additional consideration of $10,394,210. Certain minimum
installment payments are required; however, the timing of purchases is at the
Company's discretion.

Concurrently with the closing of the IPO, the Company obtained a secured
revolving credit facility (the "Credit Facility") from a group of financial
institutions. In March 1998, the Credit Facility was amended to provide that the
commitments under the Credit Facility be reduced from $235.0 million to $200.0
million. In April 1998, the Credit Facility was further amended to provide that
the commitments under the Credit Facility be reduced to $190.0 million.

5.   RECENT DEVELOPMENTS (CONTINUED)

In January 1998, the Company obtained a $15.0 million revolving line of credit
with LaSalle National Bank (the "Line of Credit"). The Line of Credit, which
matures in January 1999 and is subject to a one-year extension at the Company's
option, is collateralized by an industrial property known as 475 Superior
Avenue. Outstanding balances under the Line of Credit bear interest at a rate
equal to LIBOR plus 195 basis points. Generally, the covenants contained in the
Line of Credit are identical to the covenants contained in the Credit Facility.

Concurrently with the closing of the IPO, the Company borrowed $83.5 million in
financing on a short-term basis evidenced by two separate notes (the "New
Mortgage Notes") which were collateralized by first mortgages on certain office
and industrial properties. On April 1, 1998, the Company refinanced one of the
New Mortgage Notes (which had an original principal balance of $27.5 million)
with a loan of $29.4 million which will mature on March 23, 2008. Interest on
this loan is fixed for 10 years at a rate of 6.85% and is payable monthly. The
remaining New Mortgage Note (which had an original principal balance of $56.0
million) was refinanced on May 1, 1998 with two loans, the first of which is a
$47.0 million loan which has principal and interest payable monthly, using a
30-year amortization period, with interest fixed at 7.17% and a maturity of May
1, 2008. The second loan is a $14.6 million loan which has interest only payable
monthly at 150 basis points over LIBOR or .50% plus the greater of (a) the
lender's U.S. prime rate or (b) the Federal Funds Rate plus 1.0% and matures on
May 1, 2000, not including a six-month extension option. The refinanced notes
are collateralized by first mortgages on certain office and industrial
properties. As a result of the above refinancing, the Company recognized an
extraordinary item of $525,000, net of minority interest of $375,000,
representing the write-off of previously unamortized deferred financing fees.

In February 1998, the Company refinanced $48.8 million of letters of credit that
provided credit enhancements on certain of the Company's bonds payable from the
Credit Facility to a separate financing facility provided by a financial
institution (the "New LOC's"). The New LOC's have a quarterly fee of 1.4% of the
face amount and are collateralized by mortgages on certain industrial and office
properties and a $5.0 million cash collateral account.

On March 31, 1998, the Company issued 10,000 and 2,500 Common Shares granted to
an officer and a board member of the Company, respectively, pursuant to an
employment agreement and a consulting agreement.

On March 25, 1998, the Company completed a private placement of 2.58 million
Common Shares to institutional investors (the "Private Placement"). The Company
received proceeds, net of underwriter discount, of approximately $49.2 million
from the Private Placement, which were used to fund the acquisition of the
office properties located at 208 South LaSalle Street and 122 South Michigan
Avenue.

On March 30, 1998, the Company entered into a joint venture that acquired an
approximately 67,000 square foot vacant parcel of land located in the Chicago,
Illinois central business district ("Chicago CBD"). The parcel was acquired for
the potential development of a Class A multi-purpose facility, with up to
900,000 square feet of office space, 125,000 square feet of retail space and a
parking garage with a capacity for approximately 250 cars. The Company has
economic control of the joint venture and, therefore, has consolidated the
operations of the joint venture from the date of inception. The joint venture
entered into a bank loan in the amount of $13.5 million to acquire the land.
Interest is payable monthly at a rate of LIBOR plus 200 basis points or at the
lender's prime rate. The note matures April 1, 1999, not including a six-month
extension option. The other joint venturer's interest has been reflected as
Minority Interest - Other at June 30, 1998.

5.   RECENT DEVELOPMENTS (CONTINUED)

On May 15, 1998, the Company obtained a 7.22% note payable with a principal
balance of $75.0 million, collateralized by a mortgage on the suburban office
building known as Continental Towers. The note matures in 2013, with a
prepayment option in 2005, and has monthly payments of principal and interest,
using a 25-year principal amortization payment schedule. The Company used $70.0
million of the proceeds to repay a portion of the Credit Facility. The remaining
proceeds were utilized to pay related costs and to fund escrow reserve required
by the terms of the note.

On June 5, 1998, the Company completed the sale of 4.0 million shares of its
Series B Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock (the "Redeemable Preferred Share
Offering"). The Company received net proceeds, net of underwriters' discounts,
of approximately $96.85 million which were used to fund the acquisition of Two
Century Centre and Oak Brook Business Center and repay borrowings under the
Credit Facility and the Line of Credit. Distributions on the Series B Redeemable
Preferred Shares are payable quarterly on or about the last day of January,
April, July and October of each year, at the rate of 9% (equivalent to $2.25 per
annum per Series B Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Share). The Series B
Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Shares rank senior to the Common Shares and the
Convertible Preferred Shares as to the payment of dividends and as to the
distribution of assets.

On and after June 5, 2003, the Series B Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Shares
may be redeemed at the option of the Company at a redemption price of $25.00 per
share plus accrued and unpaid distributions. The redemption price is payable
solely out of the sale of proceeds of other capital shares of beneficial
interest of the Company.

6.   RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES

In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments
and Hedging Activities ("Statement 133"), which is effective for all fiscal
quarters and fiscal years beginning after June 15, 1999. The Company intends to
adopt Statement 133 in 1999. Management believes that the adoption of Statement
133 will not have a material affect on the Company's results of operations or
financial position.

</TABLE>

Pro forma earnings per common share increased by $0.25 from the six months ended
June 30, 1997 to the six months ended June 30, 1998 primarily due to improved
operations at the properties in 1998.

9.   SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

In July and August 1998, the Company entered into contracts to acquire three
office properties, one industrial property and two land parcels for total
contract prices of approximately $422.5 million. The Company has made escrow and
other deposits of $30.2 million related to these contracts.

The Company expects to complete the above acquisitions by the end of the first
quarter of 1999; however, there can be no assurance that any or all of the
acquisitions will be completed.

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

OVERVIEW

The Company is a fully-integrated real estate company providing property
management, leasing, marketing, acquisition, development, redevelopment,
construction, finance and other related services. As of June 30, 1998, the
Company expects to qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes. The
Company (through the Operating Partnership) owns 24 office properties ("Office
Properties") containing an aggregate of approximately 5.8 million net rentable
square feet, 46 industrial properties ("Industrial Properties") containing an
aggregate of approximately 5.8 million net rentable square feet, one retail
center and one parking facility. The properties are located primarily in the
Chicago, Illinois metropolitan area. In addition, the Company owns a mortgage on
an office property containing 728,406 net rentable square feet. The Company also
owns approximately 139.7 acres (including a development site containing
approximately 67,000 square feet located in the Chicago CBD held by a joint
venture with a third party) and has rights to acquire approximately 437.8 acres
of developable land (including rights to acquire a development site located in
the Chicago CBD containing approximately 58,000 square feet), which management
believes could be developed with approximately 3.0 million square feet of
additional office space and over 9.4 million square feet of additional
industrial space primarily in the Chicago metropolitan area.

In terms of net rentable square feet, approximately 90.1% of the Office
Properties and 87.5% of the Industrial Properties are located in the Chicago
metropolitan area in prime business locations within established business
communities. The properties located in the Chicago metropolitan area account for
approximately 93.1% of the Company's rental revenue and tenant reimbursement
revenue for the six months ended June 30, 1998. The remaining Office Properties
are located in Nashville, Tennessee; Knoxville, Tennessee; and the Milwaukee,
Wisconsin metropolitan areas, and the remaining Industrial Properties are
located in the Columbus, Ohio metropolitan area. The Company intends to continue
to invest in the acquisition, development and redevelopment of office and
industrial properties primarily located in the Chicago metropolitan area.

The Company intends to access multiple sources of capital to fund future
acquisition and development activities. These capital sources may include
undistributed cash flow, borrowings under certain acquisition facilities,
proceeds from the issuance of long-term, tax-exempt bonds, joint venture
arrangements and other debt or equity securities and other bank and/or
institutional borrowings. There can be no assurance that any such financing will
be obtained.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

COMPARISON OF THE THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1998 OF THE COMPANY TO THE THREE
MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1997 OF THE PREDECESSOR PROPERTIES

In analyzing the operating results for the quarter ended June 30, 1998, the
changes in rental and reimbursable income, property operating expenses, real
estate taxes and depreciation and amortization from 1997 are due principally to
the addition of operating results from properties contributed and acquired as
part of the Company's IPO as well as properties acquired after the IPO through
June 30, 1998.

The Predecessor Properties consisted of five office properties, 17 industrial
properties, as well as a parking facility. At the time of the IPO, 11 additional
office properties, 28 additional industrial properties and one retail center
were contributed or acquired. After the date of the IPO and through June 30,
1998, the Company acquired ten additional office properties and the first
mortgage note encumbering one office property as described in the footnotes to
the Company's Form 10-K.

For the three months ended June 30, 1998, rental revenue increased $15.2
million, or 187.2%, to $23.4 million, tenant reimbursement income increased $6.5
million, or 181.4%, to $10.0 million, other revenue increased $1.7 million to
$2.0 million, or 566.7%, property operating expenses increased $4.9 million, or
251.1%, to $6.9 million, real estate tax expense increased $4.1 million, or
148.4%, to $6.9 million and depreciation and amortization increased $2.8
million, or 82.8%, to $6.2 million as compared to the three months ended June
30, 1997. The additional office and industrial properties resulted in total
rental revenue of $15.9 million, tenant reimbursements income of $5.9 million,
property operating expenses of $5.0 million, real estate tax expense of $4.0
million and depreciation and amortization of $3.2 million for the three months
ended June 30, 1998. Rental revenue and tenant reimbursement income for the
Predecessor Properties (decreased) increased $(0.6) million and $0.6 million,
respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 1998 compared to the same
period in 1997, due to a major tenant of the 77 West Wacker Drive building
defaulting on its lease in the second quarter of 1997. Property operating
expenses, real estate tax expense and depreciation and amortization for the
Predecessor Properties for the three months ended June 30, 1998 remained
consistent with the same period in 1997.

Mortgage note interest income increased by $1.5 million to $1.5 million on due
to the acquisition of the first mortgage note encumbering the property known as
180 North LaSalle in December 1997.

Interest expense had a net decrease of $1.7 million, or 17.2%, to $8.1 million
during the three months ended June 30, 1998. The decrease was due to an $9.1
million decrease as a result of the repayment of debt with proceeds from the
Company's IPO, offset by an increase of $7.4 million due to mortgages obtained
on certain of the properties which were contributed or acquired after the IPO,
as well as Credit Facility and Line of Credit borrowings used to fund property
acquisitions.

General and administrative expense increased $0.7 million during the three
months ended June 30, 1998, reflecting costs related to the Company's new public
status and its increased size.

The decrease in financing fees and property and asset management fees is due to
these fees being incurred by the Predecessor Properties under their previous
ownership and the costs are no longer incurred by the Company.

In 1997, the Predecessor Properties recorded a provision for environmental
remediation costs of $3.2 million as an estimate of costs to be incurred for
environmental clean-up of certain properties. In management's opinion, no
additional provision is necessary.

Income allocated to minority interest increased $2.5 million to $2.4 million for
the three months ended June 30, 1998 compared to the same period in 1997 due to
an increase in income before minority interest of $17.9 million to $7.2 million
and a change in the ownership structure. The increase in income before minority
interest is due to additional properties either being contributed or acquired
and the effects they had on revenue and expenses described above. The change in
ownership structure is due to certain ownership percentages changing during the
IPO.


                                       15

Net income increased $14.9 million to $4.3 million for the three months ended
June 30, 1998 compared to the same period in 1997 due to the changes in revenue,
expenses and minority interest described above.

COMPARISON OF THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1998 OF THE COMPANY TO THE SIX
MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1997 OF THE PREDECESSOR PROPERTIES

In analyzing the operating results for the six months ended June 30, 1998, the
changes in rental and reimbursable income, property operating expenses, real
estate taxes and depreciation and amortization from 1997 are due principally to
the addition of operating results from properties contributed and acquired as
part of the Company's IPO as well as properties acquired after the IPO through
June 30, 1998.

For the six months ended June 30, 1998, rental revenue increased $25.3 million,
or 157.1%, to $41.5 million, tenant reimbursement income increased $10.6
million, or 136.8%, to $18.4 million, property operating expenses increased $7.6
million, or 176.5%, to $11.9 million, real estate tax expense increased $6.6
million, or 118.8%, to $12.2 million and depreciation and amortization increased
$5.1 million, or 78%, to $11.6 million as compared to the six months ended June
30, 1997. The additional office and industrial properties resulted in total
rental revenue of $24.8 million, tenant reimbursements income of $9.3 million,
property operating expenses of $8.3 million, real estate tax expense of $7.0
million and depreciation and amortization of $4.9 million for the six months
ended June 30, 1998. Rental revenue and tenant reimbursement income for the
Predecessor Properties increased (decreased) $(0.8) million and $(0.8) million,
respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 1998 compared to the same period
in 1997, due to a major tenant of the 77 West Wacker Drive building defaulting
on its lease in the second quarter of 1997. Property operating expenses, real
estate tax expense and depreciation and amortization for the Predecessor
Properties for the six months ended June 30, 1998 remained consistent with the
same period in 1997.

Mortgage note interest income increased by $3.0 million to $3.0 million due to
the acquisition of the first mortgage note encumbering the property known as 180
North LaSalle in December 1997.

Interest expense had a net decrease of $4.8 million, or 24.7%, to $14.5 million
during the six months ended June 30, 1998. The decrease was due to an $17.9
million decrease as a result of the repayment of debt with proceeds from the
Company's IPO, offset by an increase of $13.1 million due to mortgages obtained
on certain of the properties which were contributed or acquired after the IPO,
as well as Credit Facility and Line of Credit borrowings used to fund property
acquisitions.

General and administrative expense increased $1.2 million during the six months
ended June 30, 1998, reflecting costs related to the Company's new public status
and its increased size.

The decrease in financing fees and property and asset management fees is due to
these fees being incurred by the Predecessor Properties under their previous
ownership and the costs are no longer incurred by the Company.

In 1997, the Predecessor Properties recorded a provision for environmental
remediation costs of $3.2 million as an estimate of costs to be incurred for
environmental clean-up of certain properties. In management's opinion, no
additional provision is necessary.

Income allocated to minority interest increased $4.7 million to $4.3 million for
the six months ended June 30, 1998 compared to the same period in 1997 due to an
increase in income before minority interest of $30.0 million to $12.4 million
and a change in the ownership structure. The increase in income before minority
interest is due to additional properties being either contributed or acquired
and the effects they had on revenue and expenses described above. The change in
ownership structure is due to the certain ownership percentages changing during
the IPO.

Net income increased $24.8 million to $7.6 million for the six months ended June
30, 1998 compared to the same period in 1997 due to the changes in revenue,
expenses and minority interest described above.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

       THE CREDIT FACILITY. As of June 30, 1998, the Company has a Credit
Facility of $190.0 million from a group of banks led by BankBoston, N.A. and
Prudential Securities Credit Corporation ("PSCC"), an affiliate of Prudential
Securities Incorporated. Borrowings under the Credit Facility are available to
fund acquisitions and development activities and to provide letters of credit
for $26.0 million of tax-exempt bonds. The Credit Facility, which matures on
November 17, 2000, is collateralized by the 77 West Wacker Building and all of
the Company's properties located in Tennessee and was secured by a pledge of the
Company's mortgage note receivable on Continental Towers until May 15, 1998 when
the Company repaid $70.0 million of the Credit Facility in connection with
obtaining the $75.0 million loan collateralized by Continental Towers described
below under "1998 Mortgage Notes". Concurrently with the loan transaction, the
Credit Facility was reduced from $200.0 million to $190.0 million.

The Credit Facility, at the Company's election, bears interest on Eurodollar
loans at a floating rate based on a spread over the Eurodollar rate equal to 120
to 150 basis points, depending upon the Company's applicable leverage ratio, or
the higher of BankBoston's prime rate or the federal funds rate plus 50 basis
points. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Credit Facility was amended to
provide that for the period from December 15, 1997 through February 14, 1998,
the spread over the Eurodollar rate applicable to Eurodollar loans was equal to
175 basis points and for the period from February 15, 1998 through May 15, 1998,
such spread was equal to 200 basis points. Borrowings under the Credit Facility
may be repaid at any time, without penalty, except for the costs related to the
breakage of the Eurodollar rate loan, if any. The Credit Facility requires
monthly payments of interest only on prime rate and Eurodollar rate loans.
Eurodollar rate loans may be for periods of between 30 and 180 days. At June 30,
1998 borrowings under the Credit Facility bore interest at a weighted-average
rate equal to 7.13%.

The Company's ability to borrow under the Credit Facility is subject to the
Company's ongoing compliance with a number of financial and other covenants. The
Credit Facility, except under certain circumstances, limits the Company's
ability to make distributions in excess of 90% of its annual Funds from
Operations.

Since the IPO, the Credit Facility has been amended from time to time to, among
other things, modify the loan commitments and the interest rate payable
thereunder, and the Company has obtained several limited waivers from the
lenders under the Credit Facility in connection with certain acquisitions.

       NEW MORTGAGE NOTES. The Company borrowed $83.5 million in aggregate
principal amount under the New Mortgage Notes. PSCC provided the original New
Mortgage Notes financing on a short-term basis. The New Mortgage Notes consist
of two separate notes secured, respectively, by first mortgages on certain
office and industrial properties. Prior to their refinancing, interest on the
New Mortgage Notes was fixed to 7.19% (a rate equal to seven-year U.S. Treasury
Notes, plus 1.27%). On March 23, 1998, the Company refinanced one of the New
Mortgage Notes (which had an original principal balance of $27.5 million) with a
loan of $29.4 million, which will mature on April 1, 2008. Interest on this loan
accrues at a rate of 6.85% and is payable monthly. The remaining New Mortgage
Note (which had an original principal balance of $56.0 million) was refinanced
on May 1, 1998 with two loans, the first of which is a $47.0 million loan which
has principal and interest payable monthly, using a 30-year amortization period,
with interest fixed at 7.17% and will mature on May 1, 2008. The second loan is
a $14.6 million loan which has interest only payable monthly at 150 basis points
over LIBOR or 0.50% plus the greater of (a) the lender's U.S. prime rate or (b)
the Federal Funds rate plus 1.0% and will mature on May 1, 2001, not including a
six-month extension option. The refinanced notes are collateralized by first
mortgages on certain office and industrial properties. As a result of the above
refinancing, the Company recognized an extraordinary item of $525,000, net of
minority interest of $375,000, representing the write-off of previously
unamortized deferred financing fees.

       1998 MORTGAGE NOTES. During 1998, the Company has acquired five of its
eight new Office Properties with proceeds from property mortgage loans. The
following is a summary of those loans:

</TABLE>

Except for the loan relating to 33 North Dearborn, all of the loans require
monthly payments of principal and interest. The 33 North Dearborn loan requires
monthly payments of interest only.

On May 15, 1998, the Company obtained a 7.22% note payable, collateralized by
the Company's note receivable encumbering a suburban office building known as
Continental Towers, with a principal balance of $75.0 million. The note matures
in 2013, with a prepayment option in 2005, and has monthly payments of principal
and interest, using a 25-year principal amortization payment schedule. The
Company used $70.0 million of the proceeds to repay a portion of the Credit
Facility.

In January 1998, the Company obtained a $15.0 million revolving line of credit
with LaSalle National Bank (the "Line of Credit"). The Line of Credit, which
matures in January 1999 and is subject to a one-year extension at the Company's
option, is collateralized by an industrial property known as 475 Superior
Avenue. Outstanding balances under the Line of Credit bear interest at a rate
equal to LIBOR plus 195 basis points. Generally, the covenants contained in the
Line of Credit are identical to the covenants contained in the Credit Facility.

       LETTERS OF CREDIT. The Company has refinanced $48.8 million of letters of
credit that provided credit enhancements on certain of the Company's bonds
payable from the Credit Facility to the New LOC's. The New LOC's have a
quarterly fee of 1.4% of the face amount and are collateralized by mortgages on
certain industrial and office properties and a $5.0 million cash collateral
account.

       ANALYSIS OF LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES. The Company expects to meet
its short-term liquidity requirements generally through its working capital and
net cash provided by operations. The properties require periodic investments of
capital for tenant-related capital expenditures and for general capital
improvements. Over the past three years, the Company's recurring tenant
improvements and leasing commissions for the Predecessor Properties averaged
$4.47 per square foot of leased space and $0.40 per square foot of leased
industrial space per year. The Company expects that the average annual cost of
recurring tenant improvements and leasing commissions will be approximately $3.6
million based on an average annual square feet for which leases expire during
the next three years. The Company expects the cost of general capital
improvements to the properties to average approximately $0.9 million annually
based upon an estimate of $0.08 per square foot.

The Company expects to meet its long-term liquidity requirements for the funding
of property development, property acquisitions and other non-recurring capital
improvements through long-term secured and unsecured indebtedness (including the
Credit Facility), joint venture agreements and the issuance of additional equity
securities from the Company. The terms of the Credit Facility and the
Convertible Preferred Shares impose restrictions on the Company's ability to
incur indebtedness and issue additional preferred shares.

HISTORICAL CASH FLOWS

In analyzing cash flows for the quarter ended June 30, 1998, the changes in 1997
are due principally to the addition of cash flows from properties contributed

The Company had net cash provided by (used in) operating activities of $17.2
million and $(2.7) million for the six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997,
respectively. The $19.9 million increase is primarily due to a $24.8 million
increase in net income, a 5.1 million increase in depreciation and amortization
expense, a $4.7 million increase in income allocated to minority interest, a
$0.5 million increase in accrued interest, a $3.0 million increase in accounts
payable and accrued expenses, a $6.5 million increase in accrued real estate
taxes, and a $1.2 million increase in other liabilities, offset by a $5.9
million decrease in interest expense and fees added to principal on mortgage
note payable affiliate, a $2.1 million increase in tenant receivables, and a
$18.5 million increase in other assets.

The Company had net cash used in investing activities of $267.3 million and $0.8
million for the six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively. The
$266.5 million increase in net cash used in investing activities from the period
ended June 30, 1997 as compared to the period ended June 30, 1998 was primarily
due to an $253.5 million increase in expenditures for real estate and equipment,
principally related to the acquisition of five properties, $7.3 million in
escrow deposits for future acquisitions, a $3.9 million net increase in advances
to affiliates and a $1.8 million increase in leasing costs.

The Company had net cash provided by financing activities of $251.3 million and
$2.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively. The
$248.9 million increase in net cash provided by financing activities from the
period ended June 30, 1997 as compared to the period ended June 30, 1998 was due
to net proceeds of $95.3 from the Redeemable Preferred Share Offering, net
proceed of $47.2 million from the Private Placement, net proceeds from mortgage
notes payable of $125.6 million and additional minority interest contributions
of $1.0 million, offset by financing costs of $4.1 million and distributions to
preferred shareholders, common shareholders and minority interest of $13.6
million.

FUNDS FROM OPERATIONS

Industry analysts generally consider Funds from Operations, as defined by the
National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, Inc. ("NAREIT"), an
alternative measure of performance of an equity REIT. Funds from Operations is
defined by NAREIT to mean net income (loss) determined in accordance with GAAP,
excluding gains (or losses) from debt restructuring and sales of property, plus
depreciation and amortization (other than amortization of deferred financing
costs and depreciation of non-real estate assets) and after adjustment for
unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. The Company believes that in
order to facilitate a clear understanding of the combined historical operating
results of the Company, Funds from Operations should be examined in conjunction
with net income (loss) as presented in the unaudited financial statements
included elsewhere in this Form 10-Q. The following table represents the
unaudited calculation of the Company's Funds from Operations for the six months
ended June 30, 1998 (in thousands):

(1)  The pro forma calculation of Funds from Operations of the Company is
     presented as if, at January 1, 1998, (i) the Company had completed the
     Redeemable Preferred Share Offering and the Private Placement and used the
     net proceeds to acquire Preferred Units and Common Units of the Operating
     Partnership, (ii) the Operating Partnership had acquired the various office
     and industrial properties acquired during the six months ended June 30,
     1998 and (iii) the Operating Partnership repaid certain



                                       19
<PAGE>


     indebtedness. The unaudited pro forma calculation of Funds from Operations
     should be read in conjunction with unaudited Pro Forma Condensed
     Consolidated financial statements contained in the Company's Form 10-K. In
     management's opinion, all adjustments necessary to reflect the effects of
     the above described transactions have been made.

(2)  The Company computes Funds from Operations in accordance with standards
     established by the Board of Governors of NAREIT in its March 1995 White
     Paper (with the exception that the company reports rental revenues on a
     cash basis (based on contractual lease terms), rather than a straight-line
     GAAP basis, which the Company believes results in a more accurate
     presentation of its actual operating activities), which may differ from the
     methodology for calculating Funds from Operations used by certain other
     office and/or industrial REITs and, accordingly, may not be comparable to
     such other REITs. As a result of the Company's reporting rental revenues on
     a contractual basis, contractual rent increases will cause reported Funds
     from Operations to increase. Further, Funds from Operations does not
     represent amounts available for management's discretionary use because of
     needed capital replacement or expansion, debt repayment obligations, or
     other commitments and uncertainties. Funds from Operations should not be
     considered as an alternative to net income (loss), as an indication of the
     Company's performance or to cash flows as a measure of liquidity or the
     ability to pay dividends or make distributions.

READINESS FOR YEAR 2000

The Company is currently evaluating the nature and extent of the work required
to make its systems and infrastructure Year 2000 compliant. Based on a recent
assessment, the Company will have to modify or replace significant portions of
its hardware and software so that its systems will function properly with
respect to the Year 2000 and beyond. Certain of these systems are currently in
the process of being modified and/or replaced. The Company believes that with
modifications to certain existing software and conversions to new software
applications, in addition to hardware upgrades on certain mechanical systems,
the Year 2000 issue will not pose significant operational problems. However, if
such modifications and conversions are not made, or are not completed in a
timely manner, the Year 2000 issue could have a material impact on the
operations of the Company.

The Company continues to evaluate the Year 2000 issue and will utilize both
internal and external resources in order to reprogram, or replace, systems that
are not in compliance with the Year 2000. The Company anticipates completing the
project in mid-1999. The cost to complete the project has not yet been
determined.

The project completion date is based on management's best estimates, which were
derived utilizing numerous assumptions of future events, including the ability
of third parties to modify the Company's systems on a timely basis. There can be
no guarantee that the project will be completed in a timely manner. Specific
factors that might delay completion of the project include, but are not limited
to, the availability of qualified personnel, the ability to locate and correct
relevant computer codes, and similar uncertainties.

INFLATION

The Company's leases with the majority of its tenants require the tenants to pay
most operating expenses, including real estate taxes and insurance, and
increases in common area maintenance expenses, which reduce the Company's
exposure to increases in costs and operating expenses resulting from inflation.
As of June 30, 1998, approximately $201.3 million in principal amount of the
Company's indebtedness bore interest at floating rates and future indebtedness
may bear floating rate interest. Inflation, and its impact on floating interest
rates, could affect the amount of interest payments due on such indebtedness.

PART II:  OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.           Legal Proceedings.

No material developments with respect to legal proceedings occurred during the
period covered by this quarterly report.

ITEM 2.           Changes in Securities and Use of Proceeds

On June 5, 1998, the Company issued and sold 4,000,000 9% Series B Cumulative
Redeemable Preferred Shares for $25 per share, or an aggregate consideration of
approximately $100 million. So long as any Series B Cumulative Redeemable
Preferred Shares ("Series B Shares") are outstanding, no dividends may be
declared or paid or set apart for payment on Common Shares or Convertible
Preferred Shares unless full cumulative dividends on the Series B Shares have
been or contemporaneously are declared and a sum sufficient for the payment
thereof set apart for such payment. In addition, the Series B Shares rank senior
to the Common Shares and the Convertible Preferred Shares as to the payment of
dividends and as to the distribution of assets upon liquidation, dissolution or
winding up. In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the
Company, before any payment or distribution of the assets of the Company shall
be made to or set apart for the holders of Common Shares or Convertible
Preferred Shares, the holders of Series B Shares shall be entitled to receive
$25.00 per Series B Share, plus an amount equal to all dividends (whether or not
earned or declared) accrued and unpaid thereon to the date of final distribution
to such holders. Further, if and whenever six consecutive quarterly dividends
payable on the Series B Shares shall be in arrears, the number of trustees then
constituting the Board of Trustees shall be increased by two and the holders of
Series B Shares, together with the holders of shares of every other series of
shares on parity with the Series B Shares (which does not include the Common
Shares or the Convertible Preferred Shares), shall be entitled to elect the two
additional trustees to serve on the Board of Trustees.

ITEM 3.           Defaults Upon Senior Securities.

                  None.
