 1. ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

     AMB Property Corporation, a Maryland corporation (the "Company"), commenced
operations as a fully integrated real estate company effective with the
completion of its initial public offering on November 26, 1997. The Company
elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust under Sections 856 through
860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, commencing with its taxable year ended
December 31, 1997, and believes its current organization and method of operation
will enable it to maintain its status as a real estate investment trust. The
Company, through its controlling interest in its subsidiary, AMB Property, L.P.,
a Delaware limited partnership (the "Operating Partnership"), is engaged in the
acquisition, ownership, operation, management, renovation, expansion and
development of industrial buildings in target markets nationwide. Unless the
context otherwise requires, the "Company" means AMB Property Corporation, the
Operating Partnership and its other controlled subsidiaries.

     As of June 30, 2000, the Company owned an approximate 93.4% general partner
interest in the Operating Partnership, excluding preferred units. The remaining
approximate 6.6% limited partner interest is owned by non-affiliated investors
and certain current and former directors and officers of the Company. For local
law purposes, certain properties are owned through limited partnerships and
limited liability companies. The ownership of such properties through such
entities does not materially affect the Company's overall ownership of the
interests in the properties. As the sole general partner of the Operating
Partnership, the Company has the full, exclusive and complete responsibility and
discretion in the day-to-day management and control of the Operating
Partnership. Net operating results of the Operating Partnership are allocated
after preferred unit distributions based on the respective partners' ownership
interests.

     The Operating Partnership enters into co-investment joint ventures with
institutional investors. These co-investment joint ventures provide the
Operating Partnership with an additional source of capital to fund certain
acquisitions and development and renovation projects. As of June 30, 2000, the
Operating Partnership had investments in two co-investment joint ventures,
including AMB Institutional Alliance Fund I, L.P. ("Alliance Fund I"), which are
consolidated for financial reporting purposes. The Operating Partnership
generally owns 20 - 50% of the equity interests in these joint ventures and
maintains control over the joint ventures' operations, financing and investment
decisions.

     Prior to the Company's initial public offering in November 1997, the
Company's predecessor provided real estate investment advisory services to
institutional investors. In connection with the initial public offering, AMB
Investment Management, Inc., a Maryland corporation ("AMB Investment
Management"), was formed to continue the investment management business of
providing real estate investment services on a fee basis to clients. The
Operating Partnership purchased 100% of AMB Investment Management's non-voting
preferred stock (representing a 95% economic interest therein). Certain current
and former executive officers of the Company and a former executive officer of
AMB Investment Management collectively purchased 100% of AMB Investment
Management's voting common stock (representing a 5% economic interest therein).
The Operating Partnership also owns 100% of the non-voting preferred stock of
Headlands Realty Corporation, a Maryland corporation, (representing a 95%
economic interest therein). Certain current and former executive officers of the
Company and a director of Headlands Realty Corporation collectively own 100% of
the voting common stock of Headlands Realty Corporation (representing a 5%
economic interest therein). Headlands Realty Corporation invests in properties
and interests in entities that engage in the management, leasing and development
of properties and similar activities. The Operating Partnership accounts for its
investment in AMB Investment Management and Headlands Realty Corporation using
the equity method of accounting.

     As of June 30, 2000, the Company owned 780 industrial buildings and nine
retail centers, located in 25 markets throughout the United States. The
Company's strategy is to become a leading provider of High Throughput
Distribution, or HTD, properties located near key passenger and cargo airports,
highway systems

and ports in major metropolitan areas, such as Atlanta, Chicago, Dallas/Fort
Worth, Northern New Jersey/ New York City, the San Francisco Bay Area and
Southern California. As of June 30, 2000, the industrial buildings, principally
warehouse distribution buildings, encompassed approximately 69.2 million
rentable square feet and were 97.0% leased to over 2,400 tenants. As of June 30,
2000, the retail centers, principally grocer-anchored community shopping
centers, encompassed approximately 1.6 million rentable square feet and were
90.2% leased to over 200 tenants.

 2. INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

     The consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared
pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Accordingly, certain information and note disclosures normally included in the
annual financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles have been condensed or omitted.

     The consolidated financial statements for prior periods have been
reclassified to conform to current classifications with no effect on results of
operations. General and administrative expenses on the Consolidated Statements
of Operations includes internal asset management costs of $2.1 million and $2.5
million for the three months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively, and
$4.5 million and $4.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999,
respectively. Prior to the third quarter of 1999, these costs were classified as
property operating expenses.

     In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated
financial statements contain all adjustments, of a normal recurring nature,
necessary for a fair presentation of the Operating Partnership's consolidated
financial position and results of operations for the interim periods.

     The interim results of the three and six months ended June 30, 2000 and
1999, are not necessarily indicative of the future results. These financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the
notes thereto included in the Operating Partnership's Annual Report on Form 10-K
for the year ended December 31, 1999.

     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.

 3. REAL ESTATE ACQUISITION AND DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITY

     During the second quarter of 2000, the Operating Partnership invested
$193.6 million in operating properties, consisting of 52 industrial buildings
aggregating approximately 2.4 million square feet, including the investment of
$75.9 million in operating properties, consisting of 25 industrial buildings
aggregating approximately 0.9 million square feet, by the Alliance Fund I. Year
to date, the Operating Partnership has invested $228.1 million in operating
properties, consisting of 58 industrial buildings aggregating approximately 3.0
million square feet.

     The Operating Partnership also initiated five new development projects and
three new renovation projects during the second quarter, which will aggregate
approximately 1.8 million square feet and have a total estimated cost of $74.3
million upon completion. Five development projects and one renovation project,
aggregating approximately 1.4 million square feet, were completed during the
quarter, at a total cost of $66.2 million. As of June 30, 2000, the Operating
Partnership had 23 industrial projects, which will total approximately 5.7
million square feet and have an aggregate estimated investment of $341.9 million
upon

completion, in its development pipeline and two retail projects (excluding two
development projects held for divestiture), which will total approximately 0.2
million square feet and have an aggregate estimated investment of $34.8 million
upon completion, in its development pipeline. As of June 30, 2000, $218.5
million had been funded and approximately $158.2 million was estimated to be
required to complete projects currently under construction or for which the
Operating Partnership has committed to complete.

 4. PROPERTY DIVESTITURES AND PROPERTIES HELD FOR DIVESTITURE

     Property Divestitures. In June 2000, the Operating Partnership divested
itself of two industrial buildings located in Denver, Colorado, aggregating
approximately 0.1 million square feet, for an aggregate price of $2.8 million.
The divestitures during the second quarter resulted in an aggregate net gain of
$0.4 million. To date, the Operating Partnership has divested itself of six
industrial buildings, aggregating approximately 0.4 million square feet, for an
aggregate price of $15.7 million, with a resulting net gain of $0.4 million.

     Properties Held for Divestiture. The Operating Partnership has decided to
divest itself of six retail centers, two industrial buildings, and one land
parcel, which are not in its core markets or which do not meet its strategic
objectives. The divestitures of the properties are subject to negotiation of
acceptable terms and other customary conditions. As of June 30, 2000, the net
carrying value of the properties held for divestiture was $235.4 million.

     The following summarizes the condensed results of operations of the
properties held for divestiture at June 30, 2000 for the three and six months
ended June 30, 2000 and 1999 (dollars in thousands):

</TABLE>

     Secured debt generally requires monthly principal and interest payments.
The secured debt is secured by deeds of trust on certain properties. As of June
30, 2000, the total gross investment book value of those properties secured by
debt was $1.6 billion. All of the secured debt bears interest at fixed rates,
except for two loans with an aggregate principal amount of $18.4 million, which
bear interest at variable rates. The secured debt has various financial and
non-financial covenants. Management believes that the Operating Partnership was
in material compliance with these covenants at June 30, 2000. Additionally,
certain of the secured debt is cross-collateralized.

     The Alliance Fund I has a $80.0 million unsecured credit facility. The debt
is secured by the unfunded capital commitments of the third party investors in
AMB Institutional Alliance REIT I, Inc. (the "Alliance REIT"), a limited partner
in the Alliance Fund I. Alliance REIT is also the guarantor. The debt bears
interest at LIBOR plus 87.5 basis points and matures in April 2001. See Note 6
for a discussion of the Alliance REIT and the Alliance Fund I.

     Interest on the senior debt securities is payable semiannually in each June
and December commencing December 1998. The 2015 notes are putable and callable
in June 2005. The senior debt securities are subject to various financial and
non-financial covenants. Management believes that the Operating Partnership was
in material compliance with these covenants at June 30, 2000.

     On May 24, 2000, the Operating Partnership entered into a new $500 million
unsecured revolving credit agreement which replaced its previous $500 million
credit facility that was to mature in November 2000. The Company is a guarantor
of the Operating Partnership's obligations under the credit facility. The new
credit facility is with Morgan Guaranty Trust Company of New York, as
administrative agent, Bank of America, N.A., as syndication agent, The Chase
Manhattan Bank, as document agent, J.P. Morgan Securities Inc. and Banc of
America Securities, LLC, as joint lead arrangers and joint bookmanagers, and a
syndicate of 12 other banks. The new credit facility matures in May 2003, has a
one-year extension option and is subject to a 15 basis point fee annual facility
fee. The credit facility has various financial and non-financial covenants.
Management believes that the Company and the Operating Partnership were in
material compliance with these covenants at June 30, 2000. The Operating
Partnership has the ability to increase available borrowings up to $700 million
by adding additional banks to the facility or obtaining the agreement of
existing banks to

increase their commitments. The rate on the borrowings will generally be LIBOR
plus, based on the current credit rating of the Operating Partnership's
long-term debt, 75 basis points.

     Capitalized interest related to construction projects for the three and six
months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999 was $4.2 million, $2.9 million, $7.2 million
and $5.5 million, respectively.

     The scheduled maturities of the Operating Partnership's total debt,
excluding unamortized debt premiums, as of June 30, 2000, were (dollars in

 6. MINORITY INTERESTS

     Minority interests in the Operating Partnership represent the limited
partnership interests in a subsidiary of the Operating Partnership and interests
held by certain third parties (some of which are separate account co-investors
that are Institutional Alliance Partners) in 26 real estate joint ventures,
through which 38 properties are held, that are consolidated for financial
reporting purposes. Such investments are consolidated because (i) the Operating
Partnership owns a majority interest or (ii) the Operating Partnership exercises
significant control over major operating decisions such as approval of budgets,
selection of property managers and changes in financing.

     The Operating Partnership, together with one of the Company's other
affiliates, owns, as of June 30, 2000, approximately 22% of the partnership
interests in the Alliance Fund I. The Alliance Fund I is a co-investment
partnership between the Operating Partnership and the Alliance REIT, which has
15 institutional investors and stockholders, and is engaged in the acquisition,
ownership, operation, management, renovation, expansion and development of
primarily industrial buildings in target markets nationwide. As of June 30,
2000, the Alliance Fund I had equity commitments from third party investors
totaling $169.0 million, which, when combined with anticipated debt financings
and the Operating Partnership's investment, creates a total committed
capitalization of approximately $410.0 million.

 7. INVESTMENT IN UNCONSOLIDATED JOINT VENTURES

     The Operating Partnership has a 56.1% and a 50.0% non-controlling limited
partnership interest in two separate unconsolidated equity investment joint
ventures, which were purchased in June 1998 and September 1999, respectively.
One of the joint ventures owns an aggregate of 36 industrial buildings totaling
approximately 4.0 million square feet. The other joint venture is a development
project. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2000, the Operating
Partnership's share of net operating income was $2.1 million and $4.1 million,
respectively, and, as of June 30, 2000, the Operating Partnership's share of the
unconsolidated joint ventures' debt was $24.2 million, with a weighted average
interest rate of 6.9% and a weighted average maturity of 6.2 years.

 8. PARTNERS' CAPITAL

     At the time of the Company's initial public offering, 4,237,750 shares of
common stock, known as performance shares, were placed in escrow by certain of
the Company's investors, which were subject to advisory agreements with the
Company's predecessor that included incentive fee provisions. On January 7,
2000, 2,771,824 shares of common stock were released from escrow to these
investors and 1,465,926 shares of common stock were returned to the Company and
cancelled. The cancelled shares of common stock represent indirect interests in
the Operating Partnership that were reallocated from the Company (thereby
decreasing the number of shares of common stock outstanding) to other
unitholders who had an ownership interest in our predecessor, including certain
of the Company's executive officers, (thereby increasing the number of LP units
owned by partners other than the Company). The total number of outstanding
partnership units did not change as a result of this reallocation. This
reallocation did not change the amount of fully diluted shares of common stock
and LP units outstanding.

     On March 22, 2000, AMB Property II, L.P., one of the Operating
Partnership's subsidiaries, issued and sold 397,439 7.95% Series F Cumulative
Redeemable Preferred Limited Partnership Units at a price of $50.00 per unit in
a private placement. Distributions are cumulative from the date of issuance and

Preferred Units are redeemable by AMB Property II, L.P. on or after March 22,
2005, subject to certain conditions, for cash at a redemption price equal to
$50.00 per unit, plus accumulated and unpaid distributions thereon, if any, to
the redemption date. The Series F Preferred Units are exchangeable, at specified
times and subject to certain conditions, on a one-for-one basis, for shares of
the Operating Partnership's Series F Preferred Stock. AMB Property II, L.P.
loaned the net proceeds of $19.6 million to the Operating Partnership. The
Operating Partnership used the funds to partially repay borrowings under its
unsecured credit facility and for general corporate purposes. The loan bears
interest at a rate of 7.0% per annum and is payable upon demand.

 9. INCOME PER COMMON UNIT

     The Operating Partnership's only dilutive securities outstanding for the
three and six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999 were stock options granted
under the Company's stock incentive plan. The effect of the stock options was to
increase weighted average general LP units outstanding by 276,394 and 182,207
units for the three months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively, and
145,218 shares and 100,891 units for the six months ended June 30, 2000 and
1999, respectively. Such dilution was computed using the treasury stock method.

10. SEGMENT INFORMATION

     The Operating Partnership has two reportable segments: industrial
properties and retail properties. The industrial properties consist primarily of
warehouse distribution facilities suitable for single or multiple tenants and
are typically comprised of multiple buildings that are leased to tenants engaged
in various types of businesses. The retail properties are generally leased to
one or more anchor tenants, such as grocery and drug stores, and various retail
businesses. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those
described in the Operating Partnership's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year
ended December 31, 1999. The Operating Partnership evaluates performance based
upon property net operating income of the combined properties in each segment.
The Operating Partnership's properties are managed separately because each
segment requires different operating, pricing and leasing strategies.
Significant information used by the Operating Partnership for the reportable
segments is as follows (dollars in thousands):

11. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

  Litigation

     In the normal course of business, the Operating Partnership is involved in
legal actions relating to the ownership and operations of its properties. In
management's opinion, the liabilities, if any, that may ultimately result from
such legal actions are not expected to have a materially adverse effect on the
consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the
Operating Partnership.

  Environmental Matters

     The Operating Partnership follows the policy of monitoring its properties
for the presence of hazardous or toxic substances. The Operating Partnership is
not aware of any environmental liability that would have a material adverse
effect on the Operating Partnership's business, assets or results of operations;
however, there can be no assurance that such a material environmental liability
does not exist. The existence of any such material environmental liability would
have an adverse effect on the Operating Partnership's results of operations and
cash flow.

  General Uninsured Losses

     The Operating Partnership carries comprehensive liability, fire, flood,
environmental, extended coverage and rental loss insurance with policy
specifications, limits and deductibles that the Operating Partnership believes
are adequate and appropriate under the circumstances given the relative risk of
loss, the cost of such coverage and industry practice. There are, however,
certain types of extraordinary losses that may be either uninsurable or not
economically insurable. Certain of the properties are located in areas that are
subject to earthquake activity; therefore, the Operating Partnership has
obtained limited earthquake insurance on those properties. Should an uninsured
loss occur, the Operating Partnership could lose its investment in, and
anticipated profits and cash flows from, a property.

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

     You should read the following discussion and analysis of our consolidated
financial condition and results of operations in conjunction with the Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements. Statements contained in this discussion that
are not historical facts may be forward-looking statements. You can identify
forward-looking statements by the use of forward-looking terminology such as
"believes," "expects," "may," "will," "should," "seeks," "approximately,"
"intends," "plans," "pro forma," "estimates, or "anticipates" or the negative of
these words and phrases or similar words or phrases. You can also identify
forward-looking statements by discussions of strategy, plans, or intentions.
Forward-looking statements involve numerous risks and uncertainties and you
should not rely upon them as predictions of future events. There is no assurance
that the events or circumstances reflected in forward-looking statements will be
achieved or occur. Forward-looking statements are necessarily dependent on
assumptions, data, or methods that may be incorrect or imprecise and we may not
be able to realize them.

     The following factors, among others, could cause actual results and future
events to differ materially from those set forth or contemplated in the
forward-looking statements:

     - defaults or non-renewal of leases by tenants;

     - increased interest rates and operating cost;

     - our failure to obtain necessary outside financing;

     - difficulties in identifying properties to acquire and in effecting
       acquisitions;

     - our failure to successfully integrate acquired properties and operations;

     - our failure to divest of properties that we have contracted to sell or to
       timely reinvest proceeds from any such divestitures;

     - risks and uncertainties affecting property development and construction
       (including construction delays, cost overruns, our inability to obtain
       necessary permits, and public opposition to these activities);

     - environmental uncertainties;

     - risks related to natural disasters;

     - financial market fluctuations;

     - changes in real estate and zoning laws; and

     - increases in real property tax rates.

     Our success also depends upon economic trends generally, including interest
rates, income tax laws, governmental regulation, legislation, population
changes, and those risk factors discussed in the section entitled "Business
Risks" in this report. We caution you not to place undue reliance on
forward-looking statements, which reflect our analysis only and speak only as of
the date of this report or the dates indicated in the statements.

                                  THE COMPANY

     AMB Property, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, is one of the leading
owners and operators of industrial real estate nationwide. Our investment
strategy is to become a leading provider of High Throughput Distribution, or
HTD, properties located near key passenger and cargo airports, highway systems
and ports in major metropolitan areas, such as Atlanta, Chicago, Dallas/Fort
Worth, Northern New Jersey/New York City, the San Francisco Bay Area and
Southern California. Within each of our markets, we focus our investments in
in-fill submarkets. In-fill submarkets are characterized by supply constraints
on the availability of land for competing projects. High Throughput Distribution
facilities are designed to serve the high-speed, high-value freight handling
needs of today's supply chain, as opposed to functioning as long-term storage
facilities. We believe that the rapid growth of the air-freight business, the
outsourcing of supply chain management to third party logistics companies and
e-commerce are indicative of the changes that are occurring in the supply chain
and the manner in which goods are distributed. In addition, we believe that
inventory levels as a percentage of final sales are falling and that goods are
moving more rapidly through the supply chain. As a result, we intend to focus
our investment activities primarily on industrial properties that we believe
will benefit from these changes.

     As of June 30, 2000, we owned and operated 780 industrial buildings and
nine retail centers, totaling approximately 70.8 million rentable square feet,
located in 25 markets nationwide. As of June 30, 2000, these properties were
97.0% leased. As of June 30, 2000, through our subsidiary, AMB Investment
Management, we also managed 43 industrial buildings and retail centers, totaling
approximately 4.4 million rentable square feet, which were 98.3% leased, on
behalf of various institutional investors. In addition, we have invested in 36
industrial buildings, totaling approximately 4.0 million rentable square feet,
through an unconsolidated joint venture.

     As of June 30, 2000, we had six retail centers, two industrial buildings
and one land parcel, which were held for divestiture. In addition, during the
second quarter of 2000, we disposed of two industrial buildings, aggregating
approximately 0.4 million rentable square feet, for an aggregate price of $2.8
million. Over the next few years, we intend to dispose of non-strategic assets
and redeploy the resulting capital into High Throughput Distribution properties
that better fit our current investment focus.

     We are engaged in the acquisition, ownership, operation, management,
renovation, expansion and development of primarily industrial properties in
target markets nationwide. As of June 30, 2000, AMB Property Corporation owned
an approximate 93.4% general partnership interest in us. As the sole general
partner of the operating partnership, AMB Property Corporation has the full,
exclusive and complete responsibility and discretion in our day-to-day
management and control.

     We enter into co-investment joint ventures with institutional investors.
These co-investment joint ventures provide us with an additional source of
capital to fund certain acquisitions and developments and renovation projects.
As of June 30, 2000, we had investments in two co-investment joint ventures,
including Alliance Fund I., which are consolidated for financial reporting
purposes. We generally own 20 - 50% of the equity interests in these joint
ventures and maintain control over the joint ventures' operations, financing and
investment decisions.

     We are the managing general partner of the Alliance Fund I and, together
with an affiliate of AMB Property Corporation, own, as of June 30, 2000,
approximately 22% of the partnership interests in the Alliance Fund I. The
Alliance Fund I is a co-investment partnership between us and the Alliance REIT,
which has 15 institutional investors as stockholders and is engaged in the
acquisition, ownership, operation, management, renovation, expansion and
development of primarily industrial buildings in target markets nationwide. As
of June 30, 2000, the Alliance Fund I had equity commitments from third party
investors totaling $169.0 million, which, when combined with anticipated debt
financings and our investment, creates a total committed capitalization of
approximately $410.0 million.

     AMB Property Corporation is self-administered and self-managed and expects
that it has qualified and will continue to qualify as a real estate investment
trust for federal income tax purposes beginning with the year ending December
31, 1997. Because AMB Property Corporation is a self-administered and
self-managed

                                       16
<PAGE>   19

real estate investment trust, our own employees perform our administrative and
management functions, rather than our relying on an outside manager for these
services. The principal executive office of AMB Property, L.P. is located at 505
Montgomery St., San Francisco, CA 94111, and our telephone number is (415)
394-9000. We also maintain a regional office in Boston, Massachusetts.

ACQUISITION AND DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITY

     During the second quarter of 2000, we invested $193.6 million in operating
properties, consisting of 52 industrial buildings aggregating approximately 2.4
million square feet, including the investment of $75.9 million in operating
properties, consisting of 25 industrial buildings aggregating approximately 0.9
million square feet, by the Alliance Fund I. Year to date, we have invested
$228.1 million in operating properties, consisting of 58 industrial buildings
aggregating approximately 3.0 million square feet.

     We also initiated five new development projects and three new renovation
projects during the second quarter, which will aggregate approximately 1.8
million square feet and have a total estimated cost of $74.3 million upon
completion. Five development projects and one renovation project, aggregating
approximately 1.4 million square feet, were completed during the quarter, at a
total cost of $66.2 million. As of June 30, 2000, we had 23 industrial projects,
which will total approximately 5.7 million square feet and have a total
estimated investment of $341.9 million upon completion, in our development
pipeline and two retail projects (excluding two development projects held for
divestiture), which will total approximately 0.2 million square feet and have a
total estimated investment of $34.8 million upon completion, in its development
pipeline. As of June 30, 2000, $218.5 million had been funded and approximately
$158.2 million was estimated to be required to complete projects currently under

STRATEGIC ALLIANCE PROGRAMS

     Our Strategic Alliance Programs are designed to build value by creating
mutually beneficial relationships. We believe that our strategy of forming
strategic alliances with local and regional real estate experts improves our
operating efficiency and flexibility, strengthens customer satisfaction and
retention and provides us with growth opportunities. Additionally, our strategic
alliances with institutional investors enhance our access to private capital and
our ability to finance transactions with a goal of increasing our return on
invested capital.

     Our six Strategic Alliance Programs can be grouped into two categories:

     - Operating Alliances, which allow us to form relationships with local or
       regional real estate experts, thereby becoming their ally rather than
       their competitor; and

     - Investment Alliances, which allow us to establish relationships with a
       variety of capital sources.

OPERATING ALLIANCES

     Broker Alliance Program: Through our Broker Alliance Program, we work
closely with top local leasing companies in each of our markets, whose brokers
provide us with access to high quality customers and local market knowledge.

     Customer Alliance Program: Through our Customer Alliance Program, we are
building long-term working relationships with major customers. We are committed
to working with our customers, particularly our larger customers with multi-site
requirements, to satisfy their real estate needs as efficiently as possible.

     Development Alliance Program: Our strategy for the Development Alliance
Program is to form alliances with local development firms to jointly acquire,
renovate and develop properties to serve our customers' needs.

     Management Alliance Program: Our strategy for the Management Alliance
Program is to develop close relationships with, and outsource property
management to, local property management firms that we believe to be among the
best in each of our markets. Our alliances with local property management firms
increase our flexibility, reduce our overhead expenses and improve our customer
service. In addition, these alliances provide us with local market information
related to customer activity and investment opportunities.

INVESTMENT ALLIANCES

     Institutional Alliance Program: Our strategy for the Institutional Alliance
Program is to form alliances with institutional investors, which provide us with
access to private capital and a source of incremental fee income and investment
returns. This program allows our Institutional Alliance Partners the opportunity
to co-invest with us and to receive professional investment management of their
real estate assets.

     UPREIT Alliance Program: Through our UPREIT Alliance Program, we issue from
time to time limited partnership units in the operating partnership to certain
property owners in exchange for properties, thus providing additional growth for
the portfolio.

                             RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     The analysis below includes changes attributable to acquisitions,
development activity and divestitures and the changes resulting from properties
that we owned during both the current and prior year reporting periods,
excluding development properties prior to being stabilized (90% leased). We
refer to these properties as the same store properties. For the comparison
between the three and six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, the same store
properties consisted of properties aggregating approximately 54.5 million square
feet. The properties acquired in 1999 consisted of 154 buildings, aggregating
approximately 8.4 million square feet, and the properties acquired during the
first half of 2000 consisted of 58 buildings, aggregating 3.0 million square
feet. In 1999, property divestitures consisted of 30 retail centers and 15
industrial buildings, aggregating approximately 6.6 million square feet, and
property divestitures during the first half of 2000 consisted of six industrial
buildings, aggregating approximately 0.4 million square feet. Our future
financial condition and results of operations, including rental revenues, may be
impacted by the acquisition of additional properties and dispositions. Our
future revenues and expenses may vary materially from their historical rates.

The decrease in interest expense was primarily due to the decrease in our
unsecured credit facility balance and the increase in interest capitalized. The
increase in depreciation expense was primarily due to lower than normal
depreciation expense in 1999. Under the required accounting for assets held for
sale, we discontinued depreciation of a substantial portion of our retail
portfolio after we committed to dispose of a portion of the portfolio in March
1999. The decrease in general and administrative expenses was due to timing
differences.

                        LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     We currently expect that our principal sources of working capital and
funding for acquisitions, development, expansion, and renovation of properties
will include cash flow from operations, borrowings under our unsecured credit
facility, other forms of secured or unsecured financing, proceeds from equity or
debt offerings by us or the operating partnership (including issuances of
limited partnership units in the operating partnership or its subsidiaries) and
net proceeds from divestitures of properties. We believe that our sources of
working capital and our ability to access private and public debt and equity
capital are adequate for us to meet our liquidity requirements for the
foreseeable future.

                                       20

CAPITAL RESOURCES

     Property Divestitures. In June 2000, we divested ourselves of two
industrial buildings, located in Denver, Colorado aggregating approximately 0.1
million square feet, for an aggregate price of $2.8 million. This divestiture
during the second quarter resulted in an aggregate net gain of $0.4 million. To
date, we have divested ourselves of six industrial buildings, aggregating
approximately 0.4 million square feet, for an aggregate price of $15.7 million,
with a resulting net gain of $0.4 million.

     Credit Facilities. On May 24, 2000, we entered into a new $500 million
unsecured revolving credit agreement, which replaced our previous $500 million
credit facility that was to mature in November 2000. AMB Property Corporation is
a guarantor of our obligations under the credit facility. The new credit
facility is with Morgan Guaranty Trust Company of New York, as administrative
agent, Bank of America, N.A., as syndication agent, The Chase Manhattan Bank, as
document agent, J.P. Morgan Securities Inc. and Banc of America Securities, LLC,
as joint lead arrangers and joint bookmanagers, and a syndicate of 12 other
banks. The new credit facility matures in May 2003 and has a one-year extension
option. We have the ability to increase available borrowings up to $700 million
by adding additional banks to the facility or obtaining the agreement of
existing banks to increase its commitments. The rate on the borrowings will
generally be LIBOR plus, based on the current credit rating of our long-term
debt, 75 basis points. In addition, there is a 15 basis point annual facility
fee. We use our unsecured credit facility principally for acquisitions and for
general working capital requirements. Borrowing under our credit facility bear
interest at LIBOR plus 75 basis points. As of June 30, 2000, the outstanding
balance on our unsecured credit facility was $176.0 million and it bore interest
at a weighted average rate of 7.5%. Monthly debt service payments on our credit
facility are interest only. The total amount available under our credit facility
fluctuates based upon the borrowing base, as defined in the agreement governing
the credit facility. At June 30, 2000, the remaining amount available under our
unsecured credit facility was $324.0 million.

     In addition, we have an $80.0 million unsecured credit facility held
through our investment in the Alliance Fund I. The debt is secured by the
unfunded capital commitments of the third party investors in the Alliance REIT
I, a limited partner of the Alliance Fund I. The debt bears interest at LIBOR
plus 87.5 basis points and matures in April 2001. As of June 30, 2000, the
outstanding balance on this credit facility was $51.0 million which bore
interest at a weighted average rate of 7.5%. At June 30, 2000, the remaining
amount available under this credit facility was $29.0 million.

     Debt and Equity Activities. At the time of AMB Property Corporation's
initial public offering, 4,237,750 shares of common stock, known as performance
shares, were placed in escrow by certain investors, which were subject to
advisory agreements with our general partner's predecessor that included
incentive fee provisions. On January 7, 2000, 2,771,824 shares of common stock
were released from escrow to these investors and 1,465,926 shares of common
stock were returned to AMB Property Corporation and cancelled. The cancelled
shares of common stock represent indirect interests in us that were reallocated
from AMB Property Corporation (thereby decreasing the number of shares of common
stock outstanding) to other unitholders who had an ownership interest in our
general partner's predecessor, including certain of AMB Property Corporation's
executive officers, (thereby increasing the number of limited partnership units
owned by partners other than AMB Property Corporation). The total number of
outstanding partnership units did not change as a result of this reallocation.
This reallocation did not change the amount of fully diluted shares of common
stock and limited partnership units outstanding.

     On March 22, 2000, AMB Property II, L.P., one of our subsidiaries, issued
and sold 397,439 7.95% Series F Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Limited
Partnership Units at a price of $50.00 per unit in a private placement.
Distributions are cumulative from the date of issuance and payable quarterly in
arrears at a rate per unit equal to $3.975 per annum. The Series F Preferred
Units are redeemable by AMB Property II, L.P. on or after March 22, 2005,
subject to certain conditions, for cash at a redemption price equal to $50.00
per unit, plus accumulated and unpaid distributions thereon, if any, to the
redemption date. The Series F Preferred Units are exchangeable, at specified
times and subject to certain conditions, on a one-for-one basis, for shares of
our Series F Preferred Stock. AMB Property II, L.P. loaned the net proceeds of

$19.6 million to us. We used the funds to partially repay borrowings under our
unsecured credit facility and for general corporate purposes. The loan bears
interest at a rate of 7.0% per annum and is payable upon demand.

     Market Capitalization. As of June 30, 2000, the aggregate principal amount
of our secured debt was $740.1 million, excluding unamortized debt premiums of
$11.0 million. The secured debt bears interest at rates varying from 4.0% to
10.4% per annum (with a weighted average rate of 7.9%) and final maturity dates
ranging from May 2000 to January 2014. All of the secured debt bears interest at
fixed rates, except for two loans with an aggregate principal amount of $18.4
million as of June 30, 2000, which bear interest at variable rates.

     In order to maintain financial flexibility and facilitate the rapid
deployment of capital through market cycles, we presently intend to operate with
a debt-to-total market capitalization ratio of approximately 45% or less.
Additionally, we presently manage our capitalization in order to maintain an
investment grade rating on our senior unsecured debt. In spite of these
policies, our organizational documents do not contain any limitation on the
amount of indebtedness that we may incur. Accordingly, our board of directors
could alter or eliminate these policies.

     The tables below summarize our debt maturities and capitalization as of
June 30, 2000 (dollars in thousands, except for share and per share amounts):

  LIQUIDITY

     As of June 30, 2000, we had approximately $21.7 million in cash, restricted
cash and cash equivalents and $353.0 million of additional available borrowings
under our credit facilities. We intend to use cash from operations, borrowings
under our credit facilities, other forms of secured and unsecured financing,
proceeds from any future debt or equity offerings by us or AMB Property
Corporation (including issuances of limited partnership units by us or a
subsidiary or shares of stock of AMB Property Corporation), and proceeds from
divestitures of properties to fund acquisitions, development activities and
capital expenditures and to provide for general working capital requirements.

     The following table sets forth the distributions that were declared on May
24, 2000:

</TABLE>

     The anticipated size of our distributions, using only cash from operations,
will not allow us to retire all of our debt as it comes due. Therefore, we
intend to also repay maturing debt with net proceeds from future debt or equity
financings. However, we may not be able to obtain future financings on favorable
terms or at all.

  CAPITAL COMMITMENTS

     In addition to recurring capital expenditures and costs to renew or
re-tenant space, as of June 30, 2000, we are developing 23 projects representing
a total estimated investment of $341.9 million upon completion. Of this total,
$218.5 million had been funded as of June 30, 2000, and approximately $158.2
million is estimated to be required to complete current and planned projects. We
expect to fund these expenditures with cash from operations, borrowings under
our credit facilities, debt or equity issuances, and net proceeds from property
divestitures. We have no other material capital commitments.

     During the period from January 1, 2000 to June 30, 2000, we invested:

     - $228.1 million in 58 operating industrial buildings, aggregating
       approximately 3.0 million rentable square feet, and

     - $63.6 million in 12 new development and renovation projects (with a total
       cost upon completion estimated to be $145.0 million), aggregating
       approximately 3.0 million square feet upon completion.

     We funded these acquisitions and initiated development and renovation
projects through borrowings under our credit facilities, cash, debt and equity
issuances, and net proceeds from property divestitures.

                             FUNDS FROM OPERATIONS

     We believe that funds from operations, or FFO, as defined by the National
Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, is an appropriate measure of
performance for an equity real estate investment trust. While funds from
operations is a relevant and widely used measure of operating performance of
real estate investment trusts, it does not represent cash flow from operations
or net income as defined by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and it
should not be considered as an alternative to those indicators in evaluating
liquidity or operating performance. Further, funds from operations as disclosed
by other real estate investment trusts may not be comparable.

     The following table reflects the calculation of funds from operations for
the three and six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999 (dollars in thousands,
except share and per share data):

(1) Funds from operations, or FFO, is defined as income from operations before
    minority interest, gains or losses from sale of real estate and
    extraordinary items plus real estate depreciation and adjustment to derive
    our pro rata share of the funds from operations of unconsolidated joint
    ventures, less minority interests' pro rata share of the funds from
    operations of consolidated joint ventures and perpetual preferred stock
    dividends. In accordance with NAREIT White Paper on funds from operations,
    we include the effects of straight-line rents in funds from operations.
    Further, we do not adjust funds from operations to eliminate the effects of
    non-recurring charges.

(2) Represents FFO attributable to minority interest in consolidated joint
    ventures for the period presented, which has been computed as minority
    interests' share of net income plus minority interests' share of real
    estate-related depreciation and amortization of the consolidated joint
    ventures for such period. These minority interests are not convertible into
    shares of AMB Property Corporation's common stock. In addition, the amount
    includes minority interests held by the Series C, D, E and F preferred unit
    holders.

(3) Represents our pro rata share of FFO in unconsolidated joint ventures for
    the period presented, which has been computed as our share of net income
    plus our share of real estate-related depreciation and amortization of the
    unconsolidated joint ventures for such period.

(4) Includes the dilutive effect of stock options for the purchase of shares of
    AMB Property Corporation's common stock, which has the effect of increasing
    weighted average general limited partnership units outstanding.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

     Our exposure to market risk includes: 1) the rising interest rates in
connection with our unsecured credit facilities and other variable rate
borrowings; and 2) our ability to incur more debt without stockholder approval,
thereby increasing our debt service obligations, which could adversely affect
our cash flows. See "Item 2: Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations -- Liquidity and Capital
Resources -- Capital Resources -- Market Capitalization."

                                    PART II

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

     As of June 30, 2000, there were no pending legal proceedings to which we
are a party or of which any of our properties is the subject, the adverse
determination of which we anticipate would have a material adverse effect upon
our financial condition and results of operations.

ITEM 2. CHANGES IN SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

     None.

ITEM 3. DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES

     None.

     None.

ITEM 5. OTHER INFORMATION

                                 BUSINESS RISKS

     Our operations involve various risks that could have adverse consequences
to us. These risks include, among others:

GENERAL REAL ESTATE RISKS

THERE ARE FACTORS OUTSIDE OF OUR CONTROL THAT AFFECT THE PERFORMANCE AND VALUE
OF OUR PROPERTIES

     Real property investments are subject to varying degrees of risk. The
yields available from equity investments in real estate depend on the amount of
income earned and capital appreciation generated by the related properties as
well as the expenses incurred in connection with the properties. If our
properties do not generate income sufficient to meet operating expenses,
including debt service and capital expenditures, our ability to make
distributions to our unitholders and payments to our noteholders could be
adversely affected. Income from, and the value of, our properties may be
adversely affected by the general economic climate, local conditions such as
oversupply of industrial space or a reduction in demand for industrial space,
the attractiveness of our properties to potential customers, competition from
other properties, our ability to provide adequate maintenance and insurance and
an increase in operating costs. In addition, revenues from properties and real
estate values are also affected by factors such as the cost of compliance with
regulations, the potential for liability under applicable laws (including
changes in tax laws), interest rate levels and the availability of financing.
Our income would be adversely affected if a significant number of customers were
unable to pay rent or if we were unable to rent our industrial space on
favorable terms. Certain significant expenditures associated with an investment
in real estate (such as mortgage payments, real estate taxes and maintenance
costs) generally do not decline when circumstances cause a reduction in income
from the property.

WE MAY BE UNABLE TO RENEW LEASES OR RELET SPACE AS LEASES EXPIRE

     We are subject to the risks that leases may not be renewed, space may not
be relet, or the terms of renewal or reletting (including the cost of required
renovations) may be less favorable than current lease terms. Leases on a total
of 24.0% of the leased square footage of our properties as of June 30, 2000 will
expire on or prior to December 31, 2001, with leases on 8.2% of the leased
square footage of our properties as of June 30, 2000 expiring during the six
months ending December 31, 2000. In addition, numerous properties compete with
our properties in attracting customers to lease space, particularly with respect
to retail centers. The number of competitive commercial properties in a
particular area could have a material adverse effect on

                                       28
<PAGE>   31

our ability to lease space in our properties and on the rents that we are able
to charge. Our financial condition, results of operations, cash flow and our
ability to make distributions to our unitholders and payments to our noteholders
could be adversely affected if we are unable to promptly relet or renew the
leases for all or a substantial portion of expiring leases, if the rental rates
upon renewal or reletting is significantly lower than expected, or if our
reserves for these purposes prove inadequate.

REAL ESTATE INVESTMENTS ARE ILLIQUID

     Because real estate investments are relatively illiquid, our ability to
vary our portfolio promptly in response to economic or other conditions is
limited. The limitations in the Internal Revenue Code and related regulations on
a real estate investment trust holding property for sale, which limitations are
applicable to us as a subsidiary of AMB Property Corporation, may affect our
ability to sell properties without adversely affecting distributions to our
unitholders and payments to our noteholders. The relative illiquidity of our
holdings, Internal Revenue Code prohibitions and related regulations could
impede our ability to respond to adverse changes in the performance of our
investments and could adversely affect our financial condition, results of
operations, cash flow and our ability to make distributions to our unitholders
and payments to our noteholders.

A SIGNIFICANT NUMBER OF OUR PROPERTIES ARE LOCATED IN CALIFORNIA

     Our properties located in California as of June 30, 2000 represented
approximately 22.4% of the aggregate square footage of our properties as of June
30, 2000 and 28.4% of our annualized base rent. Annualized base rent means the
monthly contractual amount under existing leases at June 30, 2000 multiplied by
12. This amount excludes expense reimbursements and rental abatements. Our
revenue from, and the value of, our properties located in California may be
affected by a number of factors, including local real estate conditions (such as
oversupply of or reduced demand for industrial properties) and the local
economic climate. Business layoffs, downsizing, industry slowdowns, changing
demographics and other factors may adversely impact the local economic climate.
A downturn in either the California economy or in California real estate
conditions could adversely affect our financial condition, results of
operations, cash flow and our ability to make distributions to our unitholders
and payments to our noteholders. Certain of our properties are also subject to
possible loss from seismic activity.

OUR PROPERTIES ARE CURRENTLY CONCENTRATED IN THE INDUSTRIAL SECTOR

     Our properties are currently concentrated predominantly in the industrial
real estate sector. Our concentration in a certain property type may expose us
to the risk of economic downturns in this sector to a greater extent than if our
portfolio also included other property types. As a result of such concentration,
economic downturns in the industrial real estate sector could have an adverse
effect on our financial condition, results of operations, cash flow and ability
to make distributions to our unitholders and payments to our noteholders.

SOME POTENTIAL LOSSES ARE NOT COVERED BY INSURANCE

     We carry comprehensive liability, fire, extended coverage and rental loss
insurance covering all of our properties, with policy specifications and insured
limits which we believe are adequate and appropriate under the circumstances
given relative risk of loss, the cost of such coverage and industry practice.
There are, however, certain losses that are not generally insured because it is
not economically feasible to insure against them, including losses due to riots
or acts of war. Certain losses such as losses due to floods or seismic activity
may be insured subject to certain limitations including large deductibles or
co-payments and policy limits. If an uninsured loss or a loss in excess of
insured limits occurs with respect to one or more of our properties, we could
lose the capital we invested in the properties, as well as the anticipated
future revenue from the properties and, in the case of debt which is with
recourse to us, we would remain obligated for any mortgage debt or other
financial obligations related to the properties. Any such liability could
adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations, cash flow and
ability to make distributions to our unitholders and payments to our
noteholders.

                                       29
<PAGE>   32

     A number of our properties are located in areas that are known to be
subject to earthquake activity, including California where, as of June 30, 2000,
212 industrial buildings aggregating approximately 15.5 million rentable square
feet (representing 21.8% of our properties based on aggregate square footage and
26.6% based on annualized base rent) and one retail center aggregating
approximately 0.4 million rentable square feet (representing 0.6% of our
properties based on aggregate square footage and 1.9% based on annualized base
rent) are located. We carry replacement cost earthquake insurance on all of our
properties located in areas historically subject to seismic activity, subject to
coverage limitations and deductibles which we believe are commercially
reasonable. This insurance coverage also applies to the properties managed by
AMB Investment Management, with a single aggregate policy limit and deductible
applicable to those properties and our properties. We own 100% of the non-voting
preferred stock of AMB Investment Management. Through an annual analysis
prepared by outside consultants, we evaluate our earthquake insurance coverage
in light of current industry practice and determine the appropriate amount of
earthquake insurance to carry. We may incur material losses in excess of
insurance proceeds and we may not be able to continue to obtain insurance at
commercially reasonable rates.

WE ARE SUBJECT TO RISKS AND LIABILITIES IN CONNECTION WITH PROPERTIES OWNED
THROUGH JOINT VENTURES, LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANIES AND PARTNERSHIPS

     As of June 30, 2000 we had ownership interests in 26 joint ventures,
limited liability companies or partnerships with third parties, as well as
interests in two unconsolidated entities. As of June 30, 2000 we owned 38
(excluding the two unconsolidated joint ventures) of our properties through
these entities. We may make additional investments through these ventures in the
future and presently plan to do so with clients of AMB Investment Management,
Inc. and certain Development Alliance Partners, who share certain approval
rights over major decisions. Partnership, limited liability company or joint
venture investments may involve risks such as the following:

     - our partners, co-members or joint venturers might become bankrupt (in
       which event we and any other remaining general partners, members or joint
       venturers would generally remain liable for the liabilities of the
       partnership, limited liability company or joint venture);

     - our partners, co-members or joint venturers might at any time have
       economic or other business interests or goals that are inconsistent with
       our business interests or goals;

     - our partners, co-members or joint venturers may be in a position to take
       action contrary to our instructions, requests, policies or objectives;
       and

     - agreements governing joint ventures, limited liability companies and
       partnerships often contain restrictions on the transfer of a joint
       venturer's, member's or partner's interest or "buy-sell" or other
       provisions, which may result in a purchase or sale of the interest at a
       disadvantageous time or on disadvantageous terms.

     We will, however, generally seek to maintain sufficient control of our
partnerships, limited liability companies and joint ventures to permit us to
achieve our business objectives. Our organizational documents do not limit the
amount of available funds that we may invest in partnerships, limited liability
companies or joint ventures. The occurrence of one or more of the events
described above could have an adverse effect on our financial condition, results
of operations, cash flow and ability to make distributions to our unitholders
and payments to our noteholders.

WE MAY BE UNABLE TO CONSUMMATE ACQUISITIONS ON ADVANTAGEOUS TERMS

     We intend to continue to acquire primarily industrial properties.
Acquisitions of properties entail risks that investments will fail to perform in
accordance with expectations. Estimates of the costs of improvements necessary
for us to bring an acquired property up to market standards may prove
inaccurate. In addition, there are general investment risks associated with any
new real estate investment. Further, we anticipate significant competition for
attractive investment opportunities from other major real estate investors with
significant capital including both publicly traded real estate investment trusts
and private institutional investment funds.

                                       30
<PAGE>   33

We expect that future acquisitions will be financed through a combination of
borrowings under our unsecured credit facility, proceeds from equity or debt
offerings by us or AMB Property Corporation (including issuances of limited
partnership units by us or a subsidiary or shares of stock by AMB Property
Corporation), and proceeds from property divestitures, which could have an
adverse effect on our cash flow. We may not be able to acquire additional
properties. Our inability to finance any future acquisitions on favorable terms
or the failure of acquisitions to conform with our expectations or investment
criteria, or our failure to timely reinvest the proceeds from property
divestitures could adversely affect our financial condition, results of
operations, cash flow and ability to make distributions to our unitholders and
payments to our noteholders.

WE MAY BE UNABLE TO COMPLETE RENOVATION AND DEVELOPMENT ON ADVANTAGEOUS TERMS

     The real estate development business, including the renovation and
rehabilitation of existing properties, involves significant risks. These risks
include the following:

     - we may not be able to obtain financing on favorable terms for development
       projects and we may not complete construction on schedule or within
       budget, resulting in increased debt service expense and construction
       costs and delays in leasing such properties and generating cash flow;

     - we may not be able to obtain, or we may experience delays in obtaining,
       all necessary zoning, land-use, building, occupancy and other required
       governmental permits and authorizations;

     - new or renovated properties may perform below anticipated levels,
       producing cash flow below budgeted amounts;

     - substantial renovation as well as new development activities, regardless
       of whether or not they are ultimately successful, typically require a
       substantial portion of management's time and attention which could divert
       management's time from our day-to-day operations; and

     - activities that we finance through construction loans involve the risk
       that, upon completion of construction, we may not be able to obtain
       permanent financing or we may not be able to obtain permanent financing
       on advantageous terms.

     These risks could have an adverse effect on our financial condition,
results of operations, cash flow and ability to make distributions to our
unitholders and payments to our noteholders.

WE MAY BE UNABLE TO COMPLETE DIVESTITURES ON ADVANTAGEOUS TERMS

     We intend to dispose of properties from time to time that do not conform
with our current investment strategy or that we have otherwise determined should
be divested, including, as of June 30, 2000 six retail centers, two industrial
properties, and one land parcel, which are held for divestiture. Our ability to
dispose of properties on advantageous terms is dependent upon factors beyond our
control, including competition from other owners (including other real estate
investment trusts) that are attempting to dispose of industrial and retail
properties and the availability of financing on attractive terms for potential
buyers of our properties. Our inability to dispose of properties on favorable
terms or our inability to redeploy the proceeds of property divestitures in
accordance with our investment strategy could adversely our financial condition,
results of operations, cash flow and ability to make distributions to our
unitholders and payments to our noteholders.

DEBT FINANCING

WE COULD INCUR MORE DEBT

     We and AMB Property Corporation operate with a policy of incurring debt,
either directly or through our subsidiaries, only if upon such incurrence our
debt-to-total market capitalization ratio would be approximately 45% or less.
The aggregate amount of indebtedness that we may incur under our policy varies
directly with the valuation of AMB Property Corporation's capital stock and the
number of shares of capital stock outstanding. Accordingly, we would be able to
incur additional indebtedness under our policy as a result of increases in the
market price per share of AMB Property Corporation's common stock or other
outstanding classes of capital stock, and future issuance of shares of our
capital stock. In spite of this policy, neither our or AMB Property

                                       31
<PAGE>   34

Corporation's organizational documents contain any limitation on the amount of
indebtedness that they may incur. Accordingly, AMB Property Corporation's board
of directors could alter or eliminate this policy. If we change this policy, we
could become more highly leveraged, resulting in an increase in debt service
that could adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations, cash
flow and ability to make distributions to our unitholders and payments to our
noteholders.

SCHEDULED DEBT PAYMENTS COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR FINANCIAL CONDITION

     We are subject to risks normally associated with debt financing, including
the risks that cash flow will be insufficient to make distributions to our
unitholders and payments to our noteholders, that we will be unable to refinance
existing indebtedness on our properties (which in all cases will not have been
fully amortized at maturity) and that the terms of refinancing will not be as
favorable as the terms of existing indebtedness.

     As of June 30, 2000 we had total debt outstanding of approximately $1.4
billion including:

     - $740.1 million of secured indebtedness (excluding unamortized debt
       premiums) with an average maturity of six years and a weighted average
       interest rate of 7.9%;

     - $51.0 million outstanding under the unsecured credit facility related to
       the Alliance Fund I, with a maturity date of April 2001 and a weighted
       average interest rate of 7.5%;

     - $176.0 million outstanding under our unsecured $500.0 million credit
       facility with a maturity date of May 2003 and a weighted average interest
       rate of 7.5%; and

     - $400.0 million aggregate principal amount of unsecured senior debt
       securities with maturities in 2005, 2008, and 2018 and a weighted average
       interest rate of 7.2%.

     If we are unable to refinance or extend principal payments due at maturity
or pay them with proceeds of other capital transactions, we expect that our cash
flow will not be sufficient in all years to pay distributions to our unitholders
and payments to our noteholders and to repay all such maturing debt.
Furthermore, if prevailing interest rates or other factors at the time of
refinancing (such as the reluctance of lenders to make commercial real estate
loans) result in higher interest rates upon refinancing, the interest expense
relating to that refinanced indebtedness would increase. This increased interest
expense would adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations,
cash flow and ability to make distributions to our unitholders and payments to
our noteholders. In addition, if we mortgage one or more of our properties to
secure payment of indebtedness and we are unable to meet mortgage payments, the
property could be foreclosed upon or transferred to the mortgagee with a
consequent loss of income and asset value. A foreclosure on one or more of our
properties could adversely affect our financial condition, results of
operations, cash flow and ability to make distributions to our unitholders and
payments to our noteholders.

RISING INTEREST RATES COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR CASH FLOW

     As of June 30, 2000 we had approximately $176.0 million and $51.0 million
outstanding under our unsecured credit facility and the unsecured credit
facility related to the Alliance Fund I, respectively. In addition, we may incur
other variable rate indebtedness in the future. Increases in interest rates on
this indebtedness could increase our interest expense, which would adversely
affect our financial condition, results of operations, cash flow and ability to
make distributions to our unitholders and payments to our noteholders.
Accordingly, we may in the future engage in transactions to limit our exposure
to rising interest rates.

WE ARE DEPENDENT ON EXTERNAL SOURCES OF CAPITAL

     In order for AMB Property Corporation to qualify as a real estate
investment trust under the Internal Revenue Code, it is required each year to
distribute to its stockholders at least 95% of its real estate investment trust
taxable income (determined without regard to the dividends-paid deduction and by
excluding any net capital gain). Because of this distribution requirement, we
may not be able to fund all future capital needs, including capital needs in
connection with acquisitions, from cash retained from operations. As a result,
to fund capital needs, we rely on third party sources of capital, which we may
not be able to obtain on

                                       32
<PAGE>   35

favorable terms or at all. Our access to third party sources of capital depends
upon a number of factors, including general market conditions and the market's
perception of our growth potential and our current and potential future earnings
and cash distributions and the market price of the shares of AMB Property
Corporation's capital stock. Additional debt financing may substantially
increase our leverage.

WE COULD DEFAULT ON CROSS-COLLATERALIZED AND CROSS-DEFAULTED DEBT

     As of June 30, 2000 we had 19 non-recourse secured loans, which are
cross-collateralized by 21 properties. As of June 30, 2000 we had approximately
$245.8 million (not including unamortized debt premium) outstanding on these
loans. If we default on any of these loans, we will be required to repay the
aggregate of all indebtedness, together with applicable prepayment charges, to
avoid foreclosure on all the cross-collateralized properties within the
applicable pool. Foreclosure on our properties, or our inability to refinance
our loans on favorable terms, could adversely impact our financial condition,
results of operations, cash flow and ability to make distributions to our
unitholders and payments to our noteholders. In addition, our credit facilities
and our senior debt securities contain certain cross-default provisions which
are triggered in the event that our other material indebtedness is in default.
These cross-default provisions may require us to repay or restructure the credit
facilities and the senior debt securities in addition to any mortgage or other
debt which is in default, which could adversely affect our financial condition,
results of operations, cash flow and ability to make distributions to our
unitholders and payments to our noteholders.

CONTINGENT OR UNKNOWN LIABILITIES COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR FINANCIAL CONDITION

     AMB Property Corporation's predecessors have been in existence for varying
lengths of time up to 17 years. At the time of our formation we acquired the
assets of these entities subject to all of their potential existing liabilities.
There may be current liabilities or future liabilities arising from prior
activities that we are not aware of and therefore are not disclosed in this
report. AMB Property Corporation assumed these liabilities as the surviving
entity in the various merger and contribution transactions that occurred at the
time of our formation. Existing liabilities for indebtedness generally were
taken into account in connection with the allocation of our limited partnership
units or shares of AMB Property Corporation's common stock in the formation
transactions, but no other liabilities were taken into account for these
purposes. We do not have recourse against AMB Property Corporation's
predecessors or any of their respective stockholders or partners or against any
individual account investors with respect to any unknown liabilities. Unknown
liabilities might include the following:

     - liabilities for clean-up or remediation of undisclosed environmental
       conditions;

     - claims of customers, vendors or other persons dealing with AMB Property
       Corporation's predecessors prior to the formation transactions that had
       not been asserted prior to the formation transactions;

     - accrued but unpaid liabilities incurred in the ordinary course of
       business;

     - tax liabilities; and

     - claims for indemnification by the officers and directors of AMB Property
       Corporation's predecessors and others indemnified by these entities.

     Certain customers may claim that the formation transactions gave rise to a
right to purchase the premises that they occupy. We do not believe any such
claims would be material and, to date, no such claims have been filed. See "--
Government Regulations -- We Could Encounter Costly Environmental Problems"
below regarding the possibility of undisclosed environmental conditions
potentially affecting the value of our properties. Undisclosed material
liabilities in connection with the acquisition of properties, entities and
interests in properties or entities could adversely affect our financial
condition, results of operations, cash flow and ability to make distributions to
our unitholders and payments to our noteholders.

CONFLICTS OF INTEREST

SOME OF AMB PROPERTY CORPORATION'S EXECUTIVE OFFICERS ARE INVOLVED IN OTHER REAL
ESTATE ACTIVITIES AND INVESTMENTS

     Some of AMB Property Corporation's, our general partner, executive officers
own interests in real estate-related businesses and investments. These interests
include minority ownership of AMB Institutional Housing Partners, a residential
housing finance company, and ownership of AMB Development, Inc. and AMB
Development, L.P., developers, which own property that we believe is not
suitable for ownership by us. AMB Development, Inc. and AMB Development, L.P.
have agreed not to initiate any new development projects following AMB Property
Corporation's initial public offering in November 1997. These entities have also
agreed that they will not make any further investments in industrial properties
other than those currently under development at the time of AMB Property
Corporation's initial public offering. AMB Institutional Housing Partners, AMB
Development, Inc. and AMB Development, L.P. continue to use the name "AMB"
pursuant to royalty-free license arrangements. The continued involvement in
other real estate-related activities by some of AMB Property Corporation's
executive officers and directors could divert management's attention from our
day-to-day operations. Most of AMB Property Corporation's executive officers
have entered into non-competition agreements with AMB Property Corporation
pursuant to which they have agreed not to engage in any activities, directly or
indirectly, in respect of commercial real estate, and not to make any investment
in respect of industrial real estate, other than through ownership of not more
than 5% of the outstanding shares of a public company engaged in such activities
or through the existing investments referred to in this report. State law may
limit our ability to enforce these agreements.

     We could also, in the future, subject to the unanimous approval of the
disinterested members of AMB Property Corporation's board of directors with
respect to such transaction, acquire property from executive officers, enter
into leases with executive officers, or engage in other related activities in
which the interests pursued by AMB Property Corporation's executive officers may
not be in the best interests of our unitholders or noteholders.

CERTAIN OF AMB PROPERTY CORPORATION'S EXECUTIVE OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS MAY HAVE
CONFLICTS OF INTEREST WITH US IN CONNECTION WITH OTHER PROPERTIES THAT THEY OWN
OR CONTROL

     As of June 30, 2000 AMB Development, L.P. owns interests in 11 retail
development projects in the U.S., 10 of which consist of a single free-standing
Walgreens drugstore and one of which consists of a free-standing Walgreens
drugstore, a ground lease to McDonald's, and a 14,000 square foot retail center.
In addition, Messrs. Abbey, Moghadam and Burke, each a founder and director of
AMB Property Corporation, own less than 1% interests in two partnerships that
own office buildings in various markets; these interests have negligible value.
Luis A. Belmonte, an executive officer of AMB Property Corporation, owns less
than a 10% interest, representing an estimated value of $75,000, in a limited
partnership which owns an office building located in Oakland, California.

     In addition, several of AMB Property Corporation's executive officers
individually own:

     - less than 1% interests in the stocks of certain publicly-traded real
       estate investment trusts;

     - certain interests in and rights to developed and undeveloped real
       property located outside the United States; and

     - certain other de minimis holdings in equity securities of real estate
       companies.

     Thomas W. Tusher, a member of AMB Property Corporation's board of
directors, is a limited partner in a partnership in which Messrs. Abbey,
Moghadam and Burke are general partners and which owns a 75% interest in an
office building. Mr. Tusher owns a 20% interest in the partnership, valued at
approximately $1.2 million. Messrs. Abbey, Moghadam and Burke each have a 26.7%
interest in the partnership, each valued at approximately $1.6 million.

     We believe that the properties and activities set forth above generally do
not directly compete with any of our properties. However, it is possible that a
property in which an executive officer or director of AMB

                                       34
<PAGE>   37

Property Corporation, or an affiliate of an executive officer or director of AMB
Property Corporation, has an interest may compete with us in the future if we
were to invest in a property similar in type and in close proximity to that
property. In addition, the continued involvement of AMB Property Corporation's
executive officers and directors in these properties could divert management's
attention from our day-to-day operations. Our policy prohibits us from acquiring
any properties from AMB Property Corporation's executive officers or their
affiliates without the approval of the disinterested members of AMB Property
Corporation's board of directors with respect to that transaction.

AMB PROPERTY CORPORATION'S DIRECTORS, EXECUTIVE OFFICERS AND SIGNIFICANT
STOCKHOLDERS COULD ACT IN A MANNER THAT IS NOT IN THE BEST INTEREST OF OUR
LIMITED PARTNERS OR NOTEHOLDERS

     As of July 25, 2000, AMB Property Corporation's two largest stockholders,
Cohen & Steers Capital Management, Inc. (with respect to various client accounts
for which Cohen & Steers Capital Management, Inc. serves as investment advisor),
and Capital Research and Management Company (with respect to various client
accounts for which Capital Research and Management Company serves as investment
advisor) beneficially owned approximately 10.3% of AMB Property Corporation's
outstanding common stock. In addition, AMB Property Corporation's executive
officers and directors beneficially owned approximately 5.4% of AMB Property
Corporation's outstanding common stock as of July 25, 2000 and will have
influence on AMB Property Corporation's and our management and operation and, as
stockholders of AMB Property Corporation, will have influence on the outcome of
any matters submitted to a vote of AMB Property Corporation's stockholders. This
influence might be exercised in a manner that is inconsistent with the interests
of our limited partners and our noteholders. Although there is no understanding
or arrangement for these directors, officers and stockholders and their
affiliates to act in concert, these parties would be in a position to exercise
significant influence over AMB Property Corporation's affairs if they choose to
do so.

WE COULD INVEST IN REAL ESTATE MORTGAGES

     We may invest in mortgages, and may do so as a strategy for ultimately
acquiring the underlying property. In general, investments in mortgages include
the risks that borrowers may not be able to make debt service payments or pay
principal when due, that the value of the mortgaged property may be less than
the principal amount of the mortgage note secured by the property and that
interest rates payable on the mortgages may be lower than our cost of funds to
acquire these mortgages. In any of these events, our funds from operations and
our ability to make distributions to our unitholders and payments to our
noteholders could be adversely affected. Funds from operations means income
(loss) from operations before disposal of real estate properties, minority
interests and extraordinary items plus our pro rata share of the funds from
operations of the unconsolidated joint ventures, depreciation and amortization,
excluding depreciation of furniture, fixtures and equipment less funds from
operations attributable to minority interests in consolidated joint ventures
which are not convertible into shares of AMB Property Corporation's common
stock.

GOVERNMENT REGULATIONS

     Many laws and governmental regulations are applicable to our properties and
changes in these laws and regulations, or their interpretation by agencies and
the courts, occur frequently.

COSTS OF COMPLIANCE WITH AMERICANS WITH DISABILITIES ACT

     Under the Americans with Disabilities Act, places of public accommodation
must meet certain federal requirements related to access and use by disabled
persons. Compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act might require us to
remove structural barriers to handicapped access in certain public areas where
such removal is "readily achievable." If we fail to comply with the Americans
with Disabilities Act, we might be required to pay fines to the government or
damages to private litigants. The impact of application of the Americans with
Disabilities Act to our properties, including the extent and timing of required
renovations, is uncertain. If we are required to make unanticipated expenditures
to comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act, our cash flow and the
amounts available for distributions to our stockholders may be adversely
affected.
                                       35
<PAGE>   38

WE COULD ENCOUNTER ENVIRONMENTAL PROBLEMS

     Federal, state and local laws and regulations relating to the protection of
the environment impose liability on a current or previous owner or operator of
real estate for contamination resulting from the presence or discharge of
hazardous or toxic substances or petroleum products at the property. A current
or previous owner may be required to investigate and clean up contamination at
or migrating from a site. These laws typically impose liability and clean-up
responsibility without regard to whether the owner or operator knew of or caused
the presence of the contaminants. Even if more than one person may have been
responsible for the contamination, each person covered by the environmental laws
may be held responsible for all of the clean-up costs incurred. In addition,
third parties may sue the owner or operator of a site for damages based on
personal injury, property damage or other costs, including investigation and
clean-up costs, resulting from environmental contamination present at or
emanating from that site.

     Environmental laws also govern the presence, maintenance and removal of
asbestos. These laws require that owners or operators of buildings containing
asbestos properly manage and maintain the asbestos, that they adequately inform
or train those who may come into contact with asbestos and that they undertake
special precautions, including removal or other abatement in the event that
asbestos is disturbed during renovation or demolition of a building. These laws
may impose fines and penalties on building owners or operators for failure to
comply with these requirements and may allow third parties to seek recovery from
owners or operators for personal injury associated with exposure to asbestos
fibers. Some of our properties may contain asbestos-containing building
materials.

     Some of our properties are leased or have been leased, in part, to owners
and operators of businesses that use, store or otherwise handle petroleum
products or other hazardous or toxic substances. These operations create a
potential for the release of petroleum products or other hazardous or toxic
substances. Some of our properties are adjacent to or near other properties that
have contained or currently contain petroleum products or other hazardous or
toxic substances. In addition, certain of our properties are on, or are adjacent
to or near other properties upon which others, including former owners or
tenants of the properties, have engaged or may in the future engage in
activities that may release petroleum products or other hazardous or toxic
substances. From time to time, we may acquire properties, or interests in
properties, with known adverse environmental conditions where we believe that
the environmental liabilities associated with these conditions are quantifiable
and the acquisition will yield a superior risk-adjusted return. We have formed a
limited liability company with AIG Global Real Estate Investment Corp. to
acquire, develop, manage and operate environmentally impaired properties in
target markets nationwide. We are the managing member of this venture. We and
the AIG have committed $50 million to this venture. This venture currently
intends to invest primarily in industrial properties located near major
airports, ports and in-fill areas with known and quantifiable environmental
issues, as well as, to a more limited extent, well-located, value-added retail
properties. Environmental issues for each property are evaluated and quantified
prior to acquisition. The costs of environmental investigation, clean-up and
monitoring are underwritten into the cost of the acquisition and appropriate
environmental insurance is obtained for the property. In connection with certain
divested properties, we have agreed to remain responsible for, and to bear the
cost of, remediating or monitoring certain environmental conditions on the
properties.

     All of our properties were subject to a Phase I or similar environmental
assessments by independent environmental consultants at the time of acquisition.
Phase I assessments are intended to discover and evaluate information regarding
the environmental condition of the surveyed property and surrounding properties
and include an historical review, a public records review, an investigation of
the surveyed site and surrounding properties, and preparation and issuance of a
written report. We may perform additional Phase II testing if recommended by the
independent environmental consultant. Phase II testing may include the
collection and laboratory analysis of soil and groundwater samples, completion
of surveys for asbestos-containing building materials, and any other testing
that the consultant considers prudent in order to test for the presence of
hazardous materials.

     None of the environmental assessments of our properties has revealed any
environmental liability that we believe would have a material adverse effect on
our financial condition or results of operations taken as a

                                       36
<PAGE>   39

whole, and we are not aware of any such material environmental liability.
Nonetheless, it is possible that the assessments do not reveal all environmental
liabilities and that there are material environmental liabilities of which we
are unaware or that known environmental conditions may give rise to liabilities
that are materially greater than anticipated. Moreover, future laws, ordinances
or regulations may impose material environmental liability and the current
environmental condition of our properties may be affected by tenants, by the
condition of land, by operations in the vicinity of the properties (such as
releases from underground storage tanks), or by third parties unrelated to us.
If the costs of compliance with environmental laws and regulations now existing
or adopted in the future exceed our budgets for these items, our financial
condition, results of operations, cash flow and ability to make distributions to
our unitholders and payments to our noteholders could be adversely affected.

OUR FINANCIAL CONDITION COULD BE ADVERSELY AFFECTED IF WE FAIL TO COMPLY WITH
OTHER REGULATIONS

     Our properties are also subject to various federal, state and local
regulatory requirements such as state and local fire and life safety
requirements. If we fail to comply with these requirements, we might incur fines
by governmental authorities or be required to pay awards of damages to private
litigants. We believe that our properties are currently in substantial
compliance with all such regulatory requirements. However, these requirements
may change or new requirements may be imposed which could require significant
unanticipated expenditures by us. Any such unanticipated expenditures could have
an adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations, cash flow
and ability to make distributions to our unitholders and payments to our
noteholders.

FEDERAL INCOME TAX RISKS

WE MAY INVEST IN HIGHLY SPECULATIVE EARLY-STAGE COMPANIES THAT MAY JEOPARDIZE
AMB PROPERTY CORPORATION'S STATUS AS A REAL ESTATE INVESTMENT TRUST

     We believe that our investments in highly speculative early-stage companies
have been structured so that AMB Property Corporation currently qualifies as a
real estate investment trust under the Internal Revenue Code. However, if the
value of these investments, either individually or in the aggregate, appreciates
significantly, these investments may adversely affect AMB Property Corporation's
ability to continue to qualify as a real estate investment trust, unless it is
able to restructure or dispose of our holdings on a timely basis. As of June 30,
2000, we had invested approximately $14.0 million in early-stage companies. One
of these investments, in an initial amount of $5.0 million, has appreciated to a
market value in excess of $15.6 million at June 30, 2000, if it were freely
tradable.

CERTAIN PROPERTY TRANSFERS MAY GENERATE PROHIBITED TRANSACTION INCOME

     From time to time, we may transfer or otherwise dispose of some of our
properties. Under the Internal Revenue Code, any gain resulting from transfers
of properties we hold as inventory or primarily for sale to customers in the
ordinary course of business would be treated as income from a prohibited
transaction. We would be required to pay a 100% penalty tax on that income.
Since we acquire properties for investment purposes, we believe that any
transfer or disposal of property by us would not be deemed by the Internal
Revenue Service to be a prohibited transaction with any resulting gain allocable
to us being subject to a 100% penalty tax. However, whether property is held for
investment purposes is a question of fact that depends on all the facts and
circumstances surrounding the particular transaction. The Internal Revenue
Service may contend that certain transfers or disposals of properties by us are
prohibited transactions. While we believe that the Internal Revenue Service
would not prevail in any such dispute, if the Internal Revenue Service
successfully argued that a transfer or disposition of property constituted a
prohibited transaction we would be required to pay a 100% penalty tax on any
gain allocable to us from the prohibited transaction.

WE ARE DEPENDENT ON OUR GENERAL PARTNER'S KEY PERSONNEL

     We depend on the efforts of the executive officers of our general partner.
While we believe that AMB Property Corporation could find suitable replacements
for these key personnel, the loss of their services or the

                                       37
<PAGE>   40

limitation of their availability could adversely affect our financial condition,
results of operations, cash flow and ability to make distributions to our
unitholders and payments to our noteholders. AMB Property Corporation does not
have employment agreements with any of its executive officers.

WE MAY BE UNABLE TO MANAGE OUR GROWTH

     Our business has grown rapidly and continues to grow through property
acquisitions and developments. If we fail to effectively manage our growth, our
financial condition, results of operations, cash flow and ability to make
distributions to our unitholders and payments to our noteholders could be
adversely affected.

WE MAY INVEST IN HIGHLY SPECULATIVE EARLY-STAGE COMPANIES IN WHICH WE MAY LOSE
OUR ENTIRE INVESTMENT

     From time to time, we may invest in highly speculative early-stage
companies that we believe will enhance our understanding of changes occurring in
the movement of goods, which may, in turn, sharpen our real estate investment
focus, create real estate provider relationships with growth companies and
provide the potential for significant returns on invested capital. We currently
expect that each of these investments will generally be in the amount of $10.0
million or less. As a result, we believe that the amounts of our investments in
early-stage companies are immaterial, both individually and in the aggregate.
However, these investments are highly speculative and it is possible that we may
lose our entire investment in an early-stage company.

AMB INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT, INC. AND HEADLANDS REALTY CORPORATION

WE DO NOT CONTROL THE ACTIVITIES OF AMB INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT, INC. AND
HEADLANDS REALTY CORPORATION

     We own 100% of the non-voting preferred stock of AMB Investment Management,
Inc. and Headlands Realty Corporation (representing approximately 95% of the
economic interest in each entity). Some of AMB Property Corporation's current
and former executive officers and a former executive officer of AMB Investment
Management, Inc. own all of the outstanding voting common stock of AMB
Investment Management, Inc. (representing approximately 5% of the economic
interest in AMB Investment Management, Inc.). Some of AMB Property Corporation's
current and former executive officers and a director of Headlands Realty
Corporation own all of the outstanding voting common stock of Headlands Realty
Corporation (representing approximately 5% of the economic interest in Headlands
Realty Corporation). The ownership structure of AMB Investment Management, Inc.
and Headlands Realty Corporation permits us to share in the income of those
corporations while allowing AMB Property Corporation to maintain its status as a
real estate investment trust. We receive substantially all of the economic
benefit of the businesses carried on by AMB Investment Management, Inc. and
Headlands Realty Corporation through our right to receive dividends. However, we
are not able to elect the directors or officers of AMB Investment Management,
Inc. and Headlands Realty Corporation and, as a result, we do not have the
ability to influence their operation or to require that their boards of
directors declare and pay cash dividends on the non-voting stock of AMB
Investment Management, Inc. and Headlands Realty Corporation held by us. The
boards of directors and management of AMB Investment Management, Inc. and
Headlands Realty Corporation might implement business policies or decisions that
would not have been implemented by persons controlled by us and that may be
adverse to the interests of our unitholders or that may adversely impact our
financial condition, results of operations, cash flow and ability to make
distributions to our unitholders and payments to our noteholders. In addition,
AMB Investment Management, Inc. and Headlands Realty Corporation are subject to
tax on their income, reducing their cash available for distribution to us.

AMB INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT, INC. MAY NOT BE ABLE TO GENERATE SUFFICIENT FEES

     Fees earned by AMB Investment Management, Inc. depend on various factors
affecting the ability to attract and retain investment management clients and
the overall returns achieved on managed assets. These factors are beyond our
control. AMB Investment Management, Inc.'s failure to attract investment
management clients or achieve sufficient overall returns on managed assets could
reduce its ability to make distributions on the stock owned by us and could also
limit co-investment opportunities to us. This would limit

                                       38
<PAGE>   41

our ability to generate rental revenues from such co-investments and use the
co-investment program as a source to finance property acquisitions and leverage
acquisition opportunities.
