FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Transition Report on Form 10-K, together with other statements and
information publicly disseminated by New Plan Realty Trust (the "Registrant" or
the "Trust"), contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of
Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, and Section 21E of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934. Such statements are based on assumptions and expectations
which may not be realized and are inherently subject to risks, uncertainties and
other factors, many of which cannot be predicted with accuracy and some of which
might not even be anticipated. Future events and actual results, performance or
achievements, financial and otherwise, may differ materially from the results,
performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking
statements. Risks, uncertainties and other factors that might cause such
differences, some of which could be material, include, but are not limited to:
national and local economic, business and real estate and other market
conditions; financing risks, such as the inability to obtain debt or equity
financing on favorable terms; potential adverse effects of the Merger (as
defined below), such as the inability to successfully integrate two previously
separate companies; the level and volatility of interest rates; financial
stability of tenants; the rate of revenue increases versus expense increases;
governmental approvals, actions and initiatives; environmental/safety
requirements; risks of real estate acquisition and development (including the
failure of pending acquisitions to close and pending developments to be
completed on time and within budget); the ability of the Trust and others with
which it does business or receives services (including utilities, financial
institutions, major tenants, suppliers, governmental agencies and
municipalities) to address the Year 2000 issue, and the costs of doing so; as
well as other risks listed from time to time in this Transition Report on Form
10-K and in the other reports filed by the Trust or New Plan Excel (as defined
below) with the SEC or otherwise publicly disseminated by the Trust or New Plan
Excel.
EXPLANATORY NOTE
Prior to the Merger, the Trust had a fiscal year end of July 31. In
connection with the Merger, the Trust adopted a fiscal year end of December 31,
beginning with a short fiscal year ending on December 31, 1998. Except as
otherwise specified herein, the information contained in this Transition Report
on Form 10-K relates to the period from August 1, 1998 to December 31, 1998.
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
(a) General Development of Business
From August 1, 1998 to September 28, 1998, the Trust was a
self-administered and self-managed equity real estate investment trust. The
Trust was organized on July 31, 1972 as a business trust under the laws of the
Commonwealth of Massachusetts. The Trust is the successor to the original
registrant (Reg. No. 2-19671), New Plan Realty Corporation, which was
incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on December 4, 1961.
Since September 28, 1998, in connection with the Merger, the Trust has
been a wholly owned subsidiary of New Plan Excel Realty Trust, Inc. ("New Plan
Excel"), a self-administered and self-managed equity real estate investment
trust. New Plan Excel, known as Excel Realty Trust, Inc.
<PAGE> 4
immediately prior to the Merger, was incorporated in 1985 and subsequently
reincorporated as a Maryland corporation. See " -- Narrative Description of
Business -- Developments from August 1998 to December 1998 -- The Merger" below.
(b) Financial Information About Industry Segments
From August 1, 1998 to September 28, 1998, the Trust was in the
business of managing, operating, leasing, acquiring, developing and investing in
shopping centers, factory outlet centers and apartment communities. See the
Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto included in Item 8 of this
Transition Report on Form 10-K for certain information required by Item 1.
Since September 28, 1998, the Trust has been in the business of
managing, operating and leasing its existing portfolio of shopping centers,
factory outlet centers and apartment communities. See " -- Narrative Description
of the Business -- Acquisition, Financing and Operating Strategies" below.
(c) Narrative Description of Business
General
As of December 31, 1998, the Trust owned, directly or through its
subsidiaries, fee or leasehold interests in 139 shopping centers containing an
aggregate of approximately 19.5 million square feet of gross leasable area, six
factory outlet centers containing an aggregate of approximately 1.9 million
square feet of gross leasable area and 54 garden apartment communities
containing approximately 13,000 units, primarily in the eastern half of the
United States. The average occupancy rates as of December 31, 1998 for the
shopping centers, factory outlet centers and apartment communities were
approximately 90%, 90% and 91%, respectively. In addition, the Trust owned
mortgage interests in five shopping centers as of December 31, 1998.
The Trust maintains its principal executive offices at 1120 Avenue of
the Americas, New York, New York 10036, and its telephone number is (212)
869-3000.
Acquisition, Financing and Operating Strategies
From August 1, 1998 to September 28, 1998, the Trust's primary
investment strategy was to identify and purchase well-located income-producing
shopping centers and apartment communities at a discount to replacement cost.
The Trust also purchased or developed selected factory outlet centers. The Trust
sought to achieve income growth and enhance the cash flow potential of its
properties through a program of expansion, renovation, leasing, re-leasing and
improving the tenant mix. The Trust minimized development risks by generally
purchasing existing income-producing properties. The Trust regularly reviewed
its portfolio and from time to time considered the disposition of certain of its
properties.
As a result of the Merger on September 28, 1998, the Trust currently
seeks to achieve income growth and enhance the cash flow potential of its
properties through a program of expansion, renovation, leasing, re-leasing and
improving the tenant mix. It is expected that future acquisitions and
developments of, and investments in, shopping centers, factory outlet centers
and apartment communities will be undertaken by New Plan Excel directly or
indirectly, rather than through the Trust (although the Trust is not precluded
from undertaking future acquisitions or developments of, or investments in,
properties).

<PAGE> 5
The Trust regularly reviews its portfolio and from time to time considers the
disposition of certain of its properties.
The Trust has generally acquired properties for cash. In a few
instances, properties were acquired subject to existing mortgages. Long-term
debt of the Trust as of December 31, 1998 consisted of $116.9 million of
mortgages having a weighted average interest rate of 7.7%, as well as $413.9
million aggregate principal amount of unsecured notes having a weighted average
interest rate of 7.0%. The Trust's short-term debt consists of normal trade
accounts payable and the current portion of mortgages payable. In connection
with the Merger, as of September 28, 1998, the Trust guaranteed the borrowings
of New Plan Excel under New Plan Excel's $300 million revolving credit
facilities. As of December 31, 1998, New Plan Excel had a total of approximately
$201 million outstanding under its revolving credit facilities, of which $50
million is reflected in the Trust's balance sheet as of December 31, 1998 as due
to New Plan Excel Realty Trust, Inc. In addition, it is expected that the Trust
will guarantee any debt issued in the future by New Plan Excel under New Plan
Excel's recently established medium-term notes program. See " -- Recent
Developments" below.
From August 1, 1998 to September 28, 1998, virtually all operating and
administrative functions, such as leasing, data processing, finance, accounting,
construction and legal, were centrally managed at the Trust's headquarters. In
addition, the Trust maintained regional offices located near its various
properties. On-site functions such as security, maintenance, landscaping and
other similar activities were either performed by the Trust or subcontracted.
The cost of these functions was passed through to tenants to the extent
permitted by the respective leases.
As a result of the Merger on September 28, 1998, virtually all
operating and administrative functions, such as leasing, data processing,
finance, accounting, construction and legal, are now managed at the Trust's
executive and operational headquarters in New York, New York and the Trust's
operational headquarters in San Diego, California. The Trust continues to
maintain field offices and regional offices located near its various properties.
On-site functions such as security, maintenance, landscaping and other similar
activities are either performed by the Trust or subcontracted. The cost of these
functions are passed through to tenants to the extent permitted by the
respective leases.
Developments from August 1998 to December 1998
Acquisitions. From August 1, 1998 to September 28, 1998, the Trust paid
approximately $17.1 million to acquire three shopping centers containing
approximately 152,000 gross leasable square feet and one apartment property
containing 279 units.
Funds from Operations. Funds from operations applicable to common
shares of beneficial interest, no par value, of the Trust ("Shares of Beneficial
Interest"), defined as net income plus depreciation and amortization of real
estate, less gains from sales of assets and securities, was approximately $55.3
million from August 1, 1998 through December 31, 1998.
The Merger. On September 28, 1998, Excel Realty Trust, Inc. ("Excel")
and the Trust consummated a merger pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger
dated as of May 14, 1998, as amended as of August 7, 1998 (the "Merger
Agreement"), whereby ERT Merger Sub, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Excel,
was merged with and into the Trust with the Trust surviving as a wholly owned
subsidiary of Excel (the "Merger"). The Merger was approved by the stockholders
of Excel
3
<PAGE> 6
and the shareholders of the Trust at special meetings held on September 25,
1998. In connection with the Merger, Excel changed its name to "New Plan Excel
Realty Trust, Inc."
As provided in the Merger Agreement, Excel paid a 20% stock dividend
prior to the Merger. In connection with the Merger, each Share of Beneficial
Interest of the Trust was converted into one share of common stock, par value
$.01 per share, of New Plan Excel ("New Plan Excel Common Stock"), and each 7.8%
Series A Cumulative Step-Up Premium Rate Preferred Share, par value $1.00 per
share, of the Trust was converted into one share of 7.8% Series D Cumulative
Voting Step-Up Premium Rate Preferred Stock, par value $.01 per share, of New
Plan Excel ("New Plan Excel Series D Preferred Stock"). New Plan Excel issued an
aggregate of approximately 60,000,000 shares of New Plan Excel Common Stock and
150,000 shares of New Plan Excel Series D Preferred Stock (represented by
1,500,000 depositary shares, each of which represents a one-tenth fractional
interest in a share of New Plan Excel Series D Preferred Stock) to the Trust's
shareholders in the Merger. As a result of the Merger, the shareholders of the
Trust immediately prior to the Merger owned approximately 65% of New Plan
Excel's common stock outstanding immediately following the Merger. Since the
Merger, New Plan Excel has held the sole issued and outstanding Share of
Beneficial Interest of the Trust. The New Plan Excel Common Stock is listed for
trading on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol "NXL."
As further provided in the Merger Agreement, since September 28, 1998,
the Board of Trustees of the Trust and the Board of Directors of New Plan Excel
have consisted of the six former members of Excel's Board and the nine former
members of the Trust's Board. As of March 26, 1999, the senior management of the
Trust and New Plan Excel was as follows:
<TABLE>
<S> <C>
William Newman Chairman of the Board
Arnold Laubich Chief Executive Officer
Gary B. Sabin President
James M. Steuterman Executive Vice President and Co-Chief Operating Officer
Richard B. Muir Executive Vice President and Co-Chief Operating Officer
Jeffrey D. Egertson Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer
</TABLE>
The Trust and New Plan Excel intend and expect that Mr. Laubich will
eventually succeed Mr. Newman as Chairman of the Board of the Trust and New Plan
Excel, at such time as Mr. Newman is no longer serving in such capacity, and
that Mr. Sabin will eventually succeed Mr. Laubich as Chief Executive Officer of
the Trust and New Plan Excel, at such time as Mr. Laubich is no longer serving
in such capacity.
Recent Developments
On February 3, 1999, New Plan Excel established a program for the sale
of up to $500 million aggregate principal amount of medium-term notes due nine
months or more from date of issue. It is expected that future medium-term notes
will be issued by New Plan Excel through this program, rather than by the Trust
under its existing medium-term notes program (although the Trust is not
precluded from undertaking future debt issuances). The Trust will guarantee any
debt issued in the future by New Plan Excel under New Plan Excel's medium-term
notes program.

Competition
The success of the Trust depends upon, among other factors, the trends
of the economy, including interest rates, income tax laws, increases or
decreases in operating expenses, governmental regulations and legislation,
including environmental requirements, real estate fluctuations, retailing
trends, population trends, zoning laws, the financial condition and stability of
tenants, the availability of financing and capital on satisfactory terms, the
ability of the Trust to compete with others for tenants and keep its properties
leased at profitable levels and construction costs.
Adverse changes in general or local economic conditions could result in
the inability of some existing tenants of the Trust to meet their lease
obligations and could otherwise adversely affect the Trust's ability to attract
or retain tenants. Management believes, however, that the Trust's financial
strength and operating practices, particularly its ability to implement
renovation, expansion and leasing programs, will enable it to maintain and
increase rental income from its properties.
Employees
As of December 31, 1998, New Plan Excel and its subsidiaries (including
the Trust) employed approximately 750 individuals (including executive,
administrative and field personnel).
Federal Income Tax Status
From August 1, 1998 to September 28, 1998, the Trust met the
qualification requirements of a real estate investment trust under the Internal
Revenue Code. See Item 5 below. In order to maintain its qualification as a real
estate investment trust ("REIT") during that period, the Trust was required,
among other things, to distribute at least 95% of its REIT taxable income to its
shareholders and meet certain tests regarding the nature of its income and
assets. As a REIT, the Trust was not subject to federal income tax with respect
to that portion of its income which met certain criteria and was distributed
annually to its shareholders.
As a result of the Merger, since September 28, 1998, the Trust has been
a wholly owed subsidiary of New Plan Excel, which for 1998 met the qualification
requirements of a real estate investment trust under the Internal Revenue Code.
As a result, from September 28, 1998 to December 31, 1998, the Trust was a
disregarded entity for federal income tax purposes.
(d) Risk Factors
For a discussion of the risks that the Trust believes are material to
investors who purchase or own the securities of the Trust or New Plan Excel that
are not otherwise described in this Form 10-K, see the information contained
under the caption "Risk Factors" in New Plan Excel's Annual Report on Form 10-K
for the year ended December 31, 1998, which is hereby incorporated by reference.

or July 31, 1998, as appropriate.
For the period from August 1, 1998 to September 28, 1998, the high and
low sales price for the Trust's Shares of Beneficial Interest on the New York
Stock Exchange was $23.25 and $19.31, respectively. During that period, the
Trust paid a cash distribution of $.375 per Share of Beneficial Interest.
20
<PAGE> 23
In connection with the Merger, on September 28, 1998, the Trust became
a wholly owned subsidiary of New Plan Excel, and the Trust's Shares of
Beneficial Interest ceased trading on the New York Stock Exchange after the
close of trading on that date. As a result, there is currently no established
public trading market for the Shares of Beneficial Interest.
(b) Distributions
Prior to the Merger, the Trust paid regular and uninterrupted cash
distributions on its Shares of Beneficial Interest since it commenced operations
as a REIT in 1972. From the inception of the Trust to the Merger, each
distribution was either equal to or greater than the distribution immediately
preceding it, and the distributions increased in each of the last 77 consecutive
quarters during that period.
During the period from August 1, 1998 to September 28, 1998, the Trust
made distributions to shareholders aggregating $23.9 million. As a result of
the Merger, since September 28, 1998, the Trust has been a wholly owned
subsidiary of New Plan Excel. During the period from September 28, 1998
through December 31, 1998, the Trust did not make any distributions to its
sole shareholder (i.e., New Plan Excel). The Trust may in the future make
distributions to New Plan Excel as, if and when declared by the Board of
Trustees of the Trust.
During the period from August 1, 1998 to September 28, 1998, the Trust
had a Dividend Reinvestment and Share Purchase Plan which allowed shareholders
to acquire additional Shares of Beneficial Interest by automatically reinvesting
distributions. In connection with the Merger, on September 28, 1998, the Trust
became a wholly owned subsidiary of New Plan Excel, and, as a result, the Plan
was effectively terminated.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
(a) Liquidity and Capital Resources
On December 31, 1998, the Trust had approximately $27.6 million in
available cash, cash equivalents, mortgages and notes receivable and marketable
securities.
During the five-month period ended December 31, 1998, the Trust paid
approximately $17.1 million to acquire three shopping centers containing
approximately 152,000 gross leasable square feet and one apartment property
containing 279 units.
Debt as of December 31, 1998 consisted of $116.9 million of mortgages
payable having a weighted average interest rate of 7.7%, as well as $413.9
million of notes payable with a weighted average interest rate of 7.0%. The $2.8
million increase from August 1, 1998 to December 31, 1998 in mortgages payable
was the net result of the assumption of a $4.7 million mortgage in connection
with the purchase of a property and the repayment of $1.9 of existing mortgages.
The reduction from August 1, 1998 to December 31, 1998 of $49 million of notes
payable was the result of the repayment of two issues of unsecured notes and the
issuance of one series of new notes. In connection with the Merger, on September
28, 1998, the Trust guaranteed the borrowings of New Plan Excel under New Plan
Excel's $300 million revolving credit facilities.
During the five-month period, the Trust made distributions to
shareholders of $23.9 million and paid $17.3 million for improvements to
existing properties.
Other sources of funds are available to the Trust. Based on
management's internal valuation of the Trust's properties, most of which are
free and clear of mortgages, the estimated value is considerably in excess of
the outstanding mortgage indebtedness totaling $116.9 million. Accordingly,
management believes that potential exists for additional mortgage financing as
well as unsecured borrowing capacity from banks and other lenders.
The Trust holds debt instruments which are sensitive to changes in
interest rates and marketable equity securities which are sensitive to market
price changes. With respect to the Trust's debt instruments, the maturity,
weighted average interest rates and fair value are presented in Notes D, E and K
to the Consolidated Financial Statements. With respect to the Trust's marketable
equity securities, the cost and fair value are presented in Note B to the
Consolidated Financial Statements.
In the normal course of business, the Trust also faces risks that are
either non-financial or non-qualitative. Such risks principally include credit
risks and legal risks and are not included in the aforementioned notes.
(b) Year 2000 Compliance
Year 2000 Compliance Readiness
The Trust's centralized corporate business and technical information
systems have been assessed as to Year 2000 compliance and functionality. Year
2000 compliance issues with respect to the Trust's internal business and
technical information systems were substantially remediated as of December 31,
1998. See " -- Year 2000 Compliance Detail" below. In addition, the Trust has
23
<PAGE> 26
completed the identification and review of computer hardware and software
suppliers and has verified the Year 2000 preparedness of these suppliers.
Year 2000 Compliance Detail
The Trust addressed the Year 2000 issue with respect to the following:
(i) the Trust's information technology and operating systems, including its
billing, accounting and financial reporting systems; (ii) the Trust's
non-information technology systems, including building access, parking lot light
and energy management, equipment and other infrastructure systems that may
contain or use computer systems or embedded micro controller technology; and
(iii) certain systems of the Trust's major suppliers and material service
providers (insofar as such systems relate to the Trust's business activities
such as payroll, health services and alarm systems). As described below, the
Trust's Year 2000 review involves (a) an assessment of the Year 2000 problems
that may affect the Trust, (b) the development of remedies to address the
problems discovered in the assessment phase, to the extent practical or
feasible, (c) the testing of such remedies and (d) the preparation of
contingency plans to deal with worst case scenarios.
Assessment Phase
As part of the internal assessment phase, the Trust has attempted to
substantially identify all the major components of the systems described above.
In determining the extent to which such systems are vulnerable to the Year 2000
issue, the Trust is evaluating internally developed and/or purchased software
applications and property operational control systems (e.g., heating ventilation
and air conditioning (HVAC), lighting timers, alarms, fire, sewage and access).
In addition, in October 1998, the Trust began sending letters to or making
inquiries of certain of its major suppliers and service providers, requesting
them to provide the Trust with assurance of existing or anticipated Year 2000
compliance by their systems insofar as the systems relate to their activities
with the Trust. The Trust expects that it will complete its distribution of
these inquiries by April 30, 1999. The Trust is requesting that all responses to
the inquiries be returned to it no later than May 31, 1999.
Remediation and Testing Phase
Based upon the assessment and remediation efforts to date, the Trust
has completed, tested and put on line the Year 2000 compliance modification in
all the internally developed software for its accounting and property management
applications. The Trust's computer terminals or personal computers are Year 2000
compliant in all material respects. The Trust has secured software to upgrade
that part of the computer that will make it compliant. That part is called the
BIOS chip or Basic Input Output System. If there is any unforeseen problem with
a particular unit it will be replaced. Replacements are readily available. Based
on an inventory by model type of the Trust's personal computers, BIOS chip Year
2000 issues are not expected to be material. A conservative, "worst case"
scenario is included in the cost estimate. The versions of the purchased
software that the Trust uses for spread sheet analysis, database applications,
word processing systems and its apartment rent collection system have been
tested and are compliant. The outsourced payroll service and the integrated
internal input system are compliant. The New York corporate office phone,
communication and data collection networks are Year 2000 compliant; however,
based on the expanded needs of the Trust, replacement of the phone system
(including the voicemail system) is scheduled to occur by June 30, 1999. Phone
systems at other than corporate office locations are Year 2000 compliant. Phone
systems at the apartment communities are 87% Year 2000 compliant. The balance of
the phone systems at the apartment communities are scheduled to be reviewed and
be Year 2000 compliant by June 1999. The
24
<PAGE> 27
cost estimates derived from this assessment are treated as worst case. The
Trust's shopping centers are all "open air" type and are simple and very limited
in terms of technology. Field systems for shopping center HVAC, sprinkler and
lighting are more than 95% reviewed and Year 2000 compliant for those systems
supplied by the Trust (some are supplied by tenants). The systems not supplied
by the Trust are being reviewed and are projected to not have a material impact.
All of the 54 apartment communities have had reviews completed and, except for
phone systems (as discussed above), are Year 2000 compliant. All of the six
factory outlets had reviews completed and, except for one minor item, are Year
2000 compliant. This one item is an electronic variable message sign at one
property, which is expected to be Year 2000 compliant by the second quarter of
1999.
Costs Related to the Year 2000 Issue
The total historical or anticipated remaining costs for the Year 2000
remediation are estimated to be immaterial to the Trust's financial condition.
The costs to date have been expensed as incurred and consist of immaterial
internal staff costs and other expenses such as telephone and mailing costs. The
Trust currently estimates that to have all systems Year 2000 compliant will
require certain additional expenditures. At this time, the expenditures are
expected to range from a total of $60,000 to a "worst case" of $260,000.
Risks and Contingency Plans
Considering the substantial progress made to date, the Trust does not
anticipate delays in finalizing internal Year 2000 remediation within remaining
time schedules. However, third parties having a material relationship with the
Trust (e.g., utilities, financial institutions, major tenants, suppliers,
governmental agencies and municipalities) may be a potential risk based on their
individual Year 2000 preparedness which may not be within the Trust's reasonable
control. The failure of critical third parties' computer software programs and
operating systems to achieve Year 2000 compliance may result in system
malfunctions or failures. Such an occurrence would potentially affect the
ability of the third party to operate its business and thereby raise adequate
revenue to meet its contractual obligations to the Trust or provide services to
the Trust. In that event, the Trust may not receive revenue or services that it
had otherwise expected to receive pursuant to existing leases and contracts. The
failure of critical third parties to achieve Year 2000 compliance may have a
material adverse impact on the Trust's business, operating results and financial
condition.
The Trust is in the process of identifying and reviewing the Year 2000
preparedness of critical third parties. Anticipated completion of this review is
May 31, 1999. Pending the results of that review, the Trust will determine what
course of action and contingencies, if any, will need to be made.
Although the Trust's Year 2000 efforts are intended to minimize the
adverse effects of the Year 2000 issue on the Trust's business, operating
results and financial condition, the actual effects of the issue and the success
or failure of the Trust's efforts cannot be known until the year 2000. At this
point, the Trust believes that the most likely external sources of a material
adverse impact on the Trust's business, operating results and financial
condition as a result of Year 2000 issues are utilities (i.e., electricity,
natural gas, telephone service and water) furnished by third parties to the
Trust and a wide universe of other customers, none of which utilities are
readily available from alternate sources. The reasonably likely worst case
scenario that could affect the Trust's business, operating results and financial
condition would be a widespread prolonged power failure affecting a substantial
number of the geographic regions in which the Trust's properties are located. In
the event of such a widespread prolonged power failure, a significant number of
tenants may not be able to operate their stores and, as
25
<PAGE> 28
a result, their ability to pay rent could be substantially impaired. The Trust
is not aware of an economically feasible contingency plan which could be
implemented to prevent such a power failure from having a material adverse
effect on the Trust's business, operating results and financial condition.
(c) The Merger
Immediately following the Merger on September 28, 1998, approximately
88.2 million shares of New Plan Excel Common Stock were outstanding and former
holders of the Trust's Shares of Beneficial Interest held approximately 65% of
those shares. As further provided in the Merger Agreement, since September 28,
1998, the Board of Trustees of the Trust and the Board of Directors of New Plan
Excel have consisted of the six former members of Excel's Board and the nine
former members of the Trust's Board. The Merger has, for financial accounting
purposes, been accounted for as a purchase by the Trust of Excel using the
purchase method of accounting. The transaction was completed on September 28,
1998.
(d) New Accounting Standards
During 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued (a) No.
130 "Reporting Comprehensive Income" ("SFAS 130"), which is effective for fiscal
years beginning after December 15, 1997, (b) No. 131 "Disclosures About Segments
of an Enterprise and Related Information" ("SFAS 131"), which is effective for
fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997, (c) No. 132 "Employers
Disclosure About Pensions and Other Postretirement Benefits" ("SFAS 132"), which
is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997, and (d) No. 133
"Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" ("SFAS 133"),
which is effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 1999. Management
adopted SFAS 130, 131, 132 and 133 for the five months ended December 31, 1998.
In addition, during 1998, the Accounting Standards Executive Committee
of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants issued Statement of
Position 98-5, "Reporting on the Costs of Start-Up Activities" ("SOP 98-5"), and
Statement of Position 98-1, "Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software
Developed or Obtained for Internal Use" ("SOP 98-1"), each of which is effective
for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1998. SOP 98-5 requires that
certain costs incurred in conjunction with start-up activities be expensed. SOP
98-1 provides guidance on whether the costs of computer software developed or
obtained for internal use should be capitalized or expensed. Management believes
that, when adopted, SOP 98-5 and SOP 98-1 will not have a significant impact on
the Trust's financial statement.

</TABLE>
Revenues
Total revenues increased approximately $12.9 million to $113.3 million.
The increase in rental revenues was primarily the result of the acquisition of
18 properties since December 1997 and revenue increases in properties owned more
than one year. The decrease of $685,000 in investment revenue was due to lower
balances available for investment.
Operating Expenses
Total operating expenses increased $8.5 million to $71.4 million.
Operating costs increased $1.4 million to $26.8 million. The increase was due to
newly acquired properties. Real estate and other taxes increased $1.3 million to
$10.3 million. The principal reason for this increase was the larger portfolio
of properties. Interest expense increased approximately $3.1 million to $17.4
million. This increase was due to the issuance, in January 1998, of $50 million
of notes, which were used to fund the Trust's property acquisition program, and
the assumption of $56.7 million of mortgage debt in connection with property
acquisitions. Depreciation and amortization of properties increased
approximately $1.9 million to $14.5 million because of the acquisition of
properties. Provision for doubtful accounts, net of recoveries, increased $.8
million to $2.4 million. This was due to an increase in delinquencies and a
higher level of revenue.
27
<PAGE> 30
Administrative Expenses, as a percentage of revenue, decreased slightly
to 1% compared to 1.1% in last year's comparable period.
Funds from operations ("FFO"), defined as net income plus depreciation
and amortization of real estate, less gains from sales of assets and securities,
increased $6.3 million to $55.3 million from $49.0 million in the prior year's
comparable five-month period. FFO is presented because industry analysts and the
Trust consider FFO to be an appropriate supplemental measure of performance of
REITs. FFO is not a substitute for cash funds generated from operating
activities or net income as determined in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles, as a measure of profitability or liquidity. FFO as
defined by the Trust may not be comparable to the definition used by other
REITs.
Fiscal Year Ended July 31, 1998 Compared to Fiscal Year Ended July 31,
1997
In fiscal 1998, total revenues increased $43.4 million to $250.3
million. The increase was in rental income and related revenues and came from
all categories of properties. Interest and dividend income decreased
approximately $800,000 because of lower average investment balances.
Operating expenses increased $29.3 million to $156.9 million. Operating
costs, real estate and other taxes, and depreciation and amortization increased
primarily because of property acquisitions. Interest expense increased $8.6
million to $36.8 million primarily due to a higher level of outstanding
unsecured notes and mortgage debt during fiscal 1998. The increase in the
provision for doubtful accounts reflects a larger revenue base and a higher
level of receivables. Administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue
remained constant at 1.1% of revenue compared to fiscal 1997.
Net income applicable to Shares of Beneficial Interest increased $8.1
million to $84.7 million and earnings per Share of Beneficial Interest increased
to $1.42 per share (on a diluted basis) from $1.30 per share (on a diluted
basis). The increase is net of $5.9 million of distributions to holders of
preferred shares of the Trust.
FFO, defined as net income plus depreciation and amortization of real
estate, less gains from sales of assets and securities, increased $20.2 million
to $122.2 million. FFO is presented because industry analysts and the Trust
consider FFO to be an appropriate supplemental measure of performance of REITs.
FFO is not a substitute for cash funds generated from operating activities or
net income as determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles, as a measure of profitability or liquidity. FFO as defined by the
Trust may not be comparable to the definition used by other REITs.
During the twelve months ended July 31, 1998, distributions declared
and paid were $1.475 per Share of Beneficial Interest, a $.04 per share increase
over fiscal 1997. The most recent distribution declaration for Shares of
Beneficial Interest was $.3725 per share ($1.49 on an annualized basis).
Fiscal Year Ended July 31, 1997 Compared to Fiscal Year Ended July 31,
1996
In fiscal 1997, total revenues increased $39.2 million to $206.8
million. The increase was in rental income and related revenues and came from
properties in the portfolio which were acquired in fiscal 1997 or were owned for
less than a full year in fiscal 1996. Interest and dividend income decreased
slightly.
Operating expenses increased $32.7 million to $127.6 million. Operating
costs, real estate and
28
<PAGE> 31
other taxes, and depreciation and amortization increased primarily because of
property acquisitions. Interest expense increased $10.7 million to $28.3 million
due to a higher level of outstanding debt during fiscal 1997. The increase in
the provision for doubtful accounts reflects a larger revenue base and a higher
level of receivables. Administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue
declined to 1.1% from 1.6% due to increased revenue from newly acquired
properties; these costs do not increase in direct proportion to revenue due to
economies of scale.
Income before (loss)/gain on sale of properties and securities
increased $6.9 million to $77 million. During fiscal 1997, three former Nichols
stores, in Annville and Hanover, Pennsylvania and Lumberton, North Carolina,
were sold.
Net income applicable to Shares of Beneficial Interest increased $6.1
million to $77 million and earnings per Share of Beneficial Interest increased
to $1.30 per share (on a diluted basis) from $1.25 per share. The increase is
net of $461,000 of distributions to holders of preferred shares of the Trust.
FFO, defined as net income plus depreciation and amortization of real
estate, less gains from sales of assets and securities, increased $11.9 million
to $102 million. FFO is presented because industry analysts and the Trust
consider FFO to be an appropriate supplemental measure of performance of REITs.
FFO is not a substitute for cash funds generated from operating activities or
net income as determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles, as a measure of profitability or liquidity. FFO as defined by the
Trust may not be comparable to the definition used by others REITs.
During fiscal 1997, distributions declared and paid were $1.435 per
Share of Beneficial Interest, a $.04 per share increase over fiscal 1996. The
most recent distribution declaration for Shares of Beneficial Interest was $.365
per share, which is $1.46 per share on an annualized basis.
Fiscal Year Ended July 31, 1996 Compared to Fiscal Year Ended July 31,
1995
In fiscal 1996, total revenues increased $37 million to $167.6 million.
Rental income and related revenues increased $36.4 million to $162.8 million.
The increase in rental revenue came primarily from properties in the portfolio
which were acquired in fiscal 1996 or were owned for less than a full year in
fiscal 1995. In addition, increased revenue from all property categories,
apartments, factory outlets and shopping centers, owned prior to fiscal 1995
contributed to the rental revenue increase.
Interest and dividend income increased $.7 million due to higher
average investment balances.
Operating expenses increased $29.3 million to $94.9 million. Operating
costs, real estate and other taxes, and depreciation and amortization increased
primarily because of property acquisitions. Interest expense increased $10.4
million to $17.6 million due to a higher level of outstanding debt during fiscal
1996. The increase in the provision for doubtful accounts reflects a much larger
revenue base and a higher level of receivables. Administrative expenses as a
percentage of revenue declined to 1.6% from 1.9% due to increased revenue from
newly acquired properties; these costs do not increase in direct proportion to
revenue due to economies of scale.
Income before gain/(loss) on the sale of properties and securities
increased $7.6 million to $70.1 million. During fiscal 1996, a shopping center
in Chinoe, Kentucky and two former Nichols stores in Harrisonburg, Virginia and
New Bern, North Carolina were sold for a net gain of $.5 million. The $.1
million loss on the sale of securities was due to bonds being called which had
been issued at a premium.
29
<PAGE> 32
Net income applicable to Shares of Beneficial Interest increased $7.8
million to $70.5 million and earnings per Share of Beneficial Interest increased
to $1.25 per share (on a diluted basis) from $1.18 per share.
FFO, defined as net income plus depreciation and amortization of real
estate less net gains from the sale of assets, increased $12.6 million to $90.1
million. FFO is presented because industry analysts and the Trust consider FFO
to be an appropriate supplemental measure of performance of REITs. FFO is not a
substitute for cash funds generated from operating activities or net income as
determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, as a
measure of profitability or liquidity. FFO as defined by the Trust may not be
comparable to the definition used by others REITs.
During fiscal 1996, distributions declared and paid were $1.395 per
Share of Beneficial Interest, a $.04 per share increase over the preceding year.
ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
As of December 31, 1998, the Trust had approximately $108.6 million of
outstanding floating rate debt and had guaranteed approximately $200.5 million
of outstanding floating rate debt of New Plan Excel. The Trust does not believe
that the interest rate risk represented by its floating rate debt, together with
the floating rate debt of New Plan Excel guaranteed by the Trust, is material as
of that date in relation to the approximately $580.8 million of outstanding
total debt of the Trust and the approximately $1.4 billion of total assets of
the Trust as of that date.
The Trust was not a party to any hedging agreements with respect to its
floating rate debt as of December 31, 1998. In the event of a significant
increase in interest rates, the Trust would consider entering into hedging
agreements with respect to all or a portion of its floating rate debt. Although
hedging agreements would enable the Trust to convert floating rate liabilities
into fixed rate liabilities, such agreements would expose the Trust to the risk
that the counterparties to such hedge agreements may not perform, which could
increase the Trust's exposure to rising interest rates. Generally, however, the
counterparties to hedging agreements that the Trust would enter into would be
major financial institutions. The Trust may borrow additional money with
floating interest rates in the future. Increases in interest rates, or the loss
of the benefits of any hedging agreements that the Trust may enter into in the
future, would increase the Trust's interest expense, which would adversely
affect cash flow and the ability of the Trust to service its debt. If the Trust
enters into any hedging agreements in the future, decreases in interest rates
thereafter would increase the Trust's interest expenses as compared to the
underlying floating rate debt and could result in the Trust making payments to
unwind such agreements.
As of December 31, 1998, the Trust had no other material exposure to
market risk (including foreign currency exchange risk, commodity price risk or
equity price risk).

PART III
ITEM 10. TRUSTEES AND EXECUTIVE OFFICERS OF THE TRUST
As of December 31, 1998, the Board of Trustees consisted of nine
trustees. In connection with the Merger on September 28, 1998, the Board of
Trustees was expanded to consist of 15 trustees. See "Business -- Narrative
Description of Business -- Developments from August 1998 to December 1998 -- The
Merger." The trustees are divided into three classes which consist of five
trustees whose terms expire at the 1999 annual meeting of shareholders (Messrs.
Bernstein, Bottorf, Lindquist, Parsons and White), five trustees whose terms
expire at the 2000 annual meeting of shareholders (Messrs. Sabin, Steuterman,
Staller, Melvin Newman and Wetzler) and five trustees whose terms expire at the
2001 annual meeting of shareholders (Messrs. William Newman, Laubich, Muir, Gold
and Wilmot). At each of the respective annual meetings, five trustees will be
elected, each to hold office for a specified term and until his successor is
elected and qualified.
In addition, information with respect to certain of the trustees
includes service as a member of the board of directors of ERT Development
Corporation ("EDV") and the board of directors of Excel Legacy Corporation
("Excel Legacy"). EDV is an affiliate of New Plan Excel. Excel Legacy was
spun-off by Excel in March 1998 through the distribution, on a pro-rata basis,
to the holders of Excel's common stock of all of the common stock of Excel
Legacy held by Excel.

Committees of the Board of Trustees

of that date, the Audit Committee consisted of four trustees, Messrs. Gold,
Wetzler, White and Bottorf, none of whom
33
<PAGE> 36
were employees of the Trust. The Audit Committee recommended to the Board of
Trustees the selection of the independent auditors to be employed by the Trust
and reviewed generally the Trust's internal and external audits and the results
thereof. In connection with the Merger, since September 28, 1998, the Trust has
not had an Audit Committee. The Audit Committee did not meet from August 1, 1998
to September 28, 1998.
The Board of Trustees does not have a nominating committee or a
compensation committee, nor does it have a committee performing the functions of
a nominating committee or a compensation committee; the trustees perform the
functions of those committees. However, from August 1, 1998 to September 28,
1998, the Board of Trustees had a Special Compensation Committee, which
consisted of four of the Trust's non-employee trustees (Messrs. Bottorf, Gold,
Wetzler and White). The Special Compensation Committee reviewed the compensation
arrangements of Messrs. William Newman, Laubich, Steuterman and Bernstein, the

31, 1998, the Trust had three Stock Option Committees to administer the Trust's

administered by a stock option committee consisting of Messrs. William Newman,
Gold and Laubich. The Trust's March 1991 Stock Option Plan is administered by a
committee consisting of the entire Board of Trustees. None of these committees
met between August 1, 1998 and December 31, 1998.
In connection with the Merger, as of September 28, 1998, all
outstanding options under the Trust's five stock option plans, whether or not
then exercisable, were assumed by New Plan Excel and now represent an option to
purchase the same number of shares of New Plan Excel Common Stock, at an
exercise price per share equal to the per share exercise price of the Trust's
Shares of Beneficial Interest subject to such options immediately prior to the
Merger. Each such assumed option is exercisable upon the same terms and
conditions as were applicable to the related options under the stock option
plans of the Trust. Since the Merger, no stock options have been granted under
any of the Trust's stock option plans. In the future, it is expected that no
stock options will be granted under any of the Trust's stock option plans.
Trustees' Compensation
From August 1, 1998 to September 28, 1998, the trustees of the Trust
who were not employees of the Trust each received $12,500 in annual trustee fees
and $500 per meeting. In addition, the Trust reimbursed the trustees for travel
expenses incurred in connection with their activities on behalf of the Trust. In
connection with the Merger, since September 28, 1998, the trustees of the Trust
no longer receive any trustee or meeting fees, although they continue to receive
expense reimbursements.

period ended December 31, 1998. As a result, information is not shown
for such executive officers with respect to the five-month period ended
December 31, 1997.

and upkeep of the apartment, which has primarily been used by Mr. Newman. Such
payments totaled approximately $20,000 in 1998. On September 24, 1998, Mr.

The Trust leases an office building from Page Associates on a net lease
basis for a current rent of approximately $186,000 per year (rental payments of
approximately $184,000 were made to Page Associates in 1998). The Trust has
leased this building from Page Associates since 1974. Page Associates is a
partnership owned in equal proportions by William Newman, Melvin Newman, the
estate of Joseph Newman and Arnold Laubich. The Trust subleases the office
building which it leases from Page Associates and has received rent in excess of
all payments made to Page Associates and other real estate expenses in each of
the years it has rented the building from Page Associates.
(b) Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation
The Board of Trustees does not have a Compensation Committee.
Consequently, the Board of Trustees performs the functions of such committee;
however, from August 1, 1998 to September 28, 1998, the Special Compensation
Committee of the Board of Trustees performed these functions with respect to
Messrs. William Newman, Laubich, Steuterman and Bernstein. The amount of
compensation paid by the Trust to its officers and the respective terms of
employment of such officers from August 1, 1998 to September 28, 1998 were, with
the exception of the four above-mentioned officers, determined primarily by
Messrs. William Newman and Laubich, each of whom served during that period both
as a trustee and as an executive officer of the Trust. In addition, the number
of options granted to the trustees of the Trust under the terms of the Trust's
option plans from August 1, 1998 to September 28, 1998 was determined by the
administrators of the option plans during that period, Messrs. William Newman,
Laubich and Gold.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS
To the Trustees and Shareholders
of New Plan Realty Trust:
We have audited the consolidated financial statements and financial statement
schedules of New Plan Realty Trust and Subsidiaries listed in Item 14(a) of this
Form 10-K. These financial statements and financial statement schedules are the
responsibility of the Trust's management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements and financial statement schedules based on
our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of New
Plan Realty Trust and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 1998 and July 31, 1998 and
1997, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for
the five months ended December 31, 1998 and for each of the three years in the
period ended July 31, 1998, in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles. In addition, in our opinion, the financial statement schedules
referred to above, when considered in relation to the basic financial statements
taken as a whole, present fairly, in all material respects, the information
required to be included therein.

NEW PLAN REALTY TRUST AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE A - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Organization and Income Taxes: New Plan Realty Trust was organized on
July 31, 1972 as a business trust under the laws of the Commonwealth of
Massachusetts. Prior to the Merger, New Plan Realty Trust and subsidiaries (the
"Trust") met the qualification requirements of a real estate investment trust (a
"REIT") under the applicable provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986
(the "Code"). Accordingly, during that period, the Trust did not pay Federal
income taxes on REIT taxable income (including net capital gains) that it
distributed currently to shareholders. During that period, the Trust may have
been subject to tax by certain states that did not recognize REIT tax treatment.
Provision for such taxes was included in real estate and other taxes.
As a result of the consummation of the Merger, since September 28,
1998, the Trust has been a wholly owed subsidiary of New Plan Excel, which for
1998 met the qualification requirements of a REIT under the Code. As a result,
from September 28, 1998 to December 31, 1998, the Trust was a disregarded entity
for federal income tax purposes. The Trust may be subject to tax by certain
states that do not recognize REIT tax treatment. Provision for such taxes has
been included in real estate and other taxes.
Basis of Consolidation: The consolidated financial statements include
the accounts of New Plan Realty Trust and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All
significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. Certain
prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year
presentation.
Real Estate: Real estate is carried at cost less accumulated
depreciation and amortization. For financial reporting purposes, depreciation is
calculated on the straight-line method based on the estimated useful lives of
the assets. Buildings and building improvements are depreciated over 40 years
and other assets over useful lives ranging from 5 to 20 years. Amortization of
leasehold improvements is calculated on a straight-line basis over the shorter
of the life of the lease or the estimated useful life of the asset. If there is
an event or a change in circumstances that indicates that the basis of the
Trust's property may not be recoverable the Trust's policy is to assess any
impairment in value by making a comparison of the current and projected
operating cash flows (excluding interest and income taxes) of the property over
its remaining useful life, on an undiscounted basis, to the carrying amount of
the property. Such carrying amounts would be adjusted, if necessary, to reflect
an impairment in the value of the property.
The Trust records sales of properties when, among other criteria, the
parties are bound by the terms of a contract, all consideration has been
exchanged and all conditions precedent to closing have been performed. These
conditions are usually met at the time of closing. The cost and related
accumulated depreciation of assets sold are removed from the respective accounts
and any gain or loss is recognized in income.
New Accounting Standards: During 1998, the Financial Accounting
Standards Board issued (a) No. 130 "Reporting Comprehensive Income" ("SFAS
130"), which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997,
(b) No. 131 "Disclosures About Segments of an Enterprise and Related
Information" ("SFAS 131"), which is effective for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 1997, (c) No. 132 "Employers Disclosure About Pensions and
F-9
<PAGE> 55
Other Postretirement Benefits" ("SFAS 132"), which is effective for fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 1997, and (d) No. 133 "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities" ("SFAS 133"), which is effective for fiscal
years beginning after June 15, 1999. Management adopted SFAS 130, 131, 132 and
133 for the five months ended December 31, 1998.
Cash Equivalents: Cash equivalents consist of short-term, highly liquid
debt instruments with original maturities of three months or less. Items
classified as cash equivalents include insured bank certificates of deposit and
commercial paper. At times cash balances at a limited number of banks may exceed
insurable amounts. The Trust believes it mitigates its risk by investing in or
through major financial institutions. Recoverability of investments is dependent
upon the performance of the issuer.
Revenue Recognition: Lease agreements between the Trust and retail
tenants generally provide for additional rentals based on such factors as
percentage of tenants' sales in excess of specified volumes, increases in real
estate taxes, increases in Consumer Price Indices and common area maintenance
charges. These additional rentals are generally included in income when reported
to the Trust or when billed to tenants.
The Trust recognizes rental income from leases with scheduled rent
increases on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Deferred rent
receivable, included in trade and notes receivable, represents the difference
between the straight-line rent and amounts currently due.
Concentration of Credit Risk: No tenant or single property accounts for
more than 5% of the Trust's revenues.
Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities,
revenues and expenses and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities.
Actual results could differ from those estimates. The most significant
assumptions and estimates relate to depreciable lives, valuation of real estate
and the recoverability of mortgage notes and trade accounts receivable.
Internal Software Costs: Any costs associated with modifying computer
software for the year 2000 are expensed as incurred, as well as any other normal
software costs.
NOTE B - MARKETABLE SECURITIES
The Trust has classified all investments in equity securities as
available-for-sale. All investments are recorded at current market value with an
offsetting adjustment to shareholders' equity (in thousands).

The net decrease in unrealized holding gains that has been included as
a separate component of shareholders' equity is $87,000 for the five months
ended December 31, 1998. The weighted average cost method is used to determine
realized gain or loss on securities sold. The market value of marketable
securities is based on quoted market prices as of December 31, 1998, July 31,
1998 and July 31, 1997.
NOTE C - MORTGAGES & NOTES RECEIVABLE
Mortgages and Notes Receivable are collateralized principally by real

</TABLE>
The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair
value of each class of financial instruments for which it is practicable:
Cash and cash equivalents, other receivables, amounts due from New Plan
Excel Realty Trust, Inc. and payables: The carrying amount approximates
fair value because of the short maturity of those instruments.
Marketable securities: Fair value is based on quoted market prices.
Mortgages and Notes receivable: The fair value is estimated based on
discounting the future cash flows at a year-end risk adjusted lending
rate that the Trust would utilize for loans of similar risk and
duration.
Mortgages payable and Notes payable: The fair value is estimated based
on discounting future cash flows at a year-end adjusted borrowing rate
which reflects the risks associated with mortgages and notes of similar
risk and duration.

property and assets and to transact the business in which it is engaged and

execute, deliver and perform the terms and provisions of this Guaranty and has
taken all necessary action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance
by it of this Guaranty. The undersigned has duly executed and delivered this

undersigned's successors and assigns. Nothing except cash payment in full of all
Obligations shall release the undersigned from liability under this Guaranty.
This Guaranty is a guaranty of payment and not of collection, and neither the
Agent nor any Lender shall be under no obligation to take any action against
Borrower or any other person liable with respect to any of the Obligations or
resort to any collateral security held by it to secure any of the Obligations as
a condition precedent to the undersigned being obligated to perform as agreed
herein.
(b) Acknowledgment. The undersigned hereby acknowledges that it has
derived or expects to derive a financial or other advantage from each and every
Obligation incurred by Borrower to the Lender.
(c) Subrogation. Until such time as the Lender shall have received
payment in full in cash in satisfaction of all of the Obligations, the
undersigned waives any rights to be subrogated to the rights of the Lender with
respect to the Obligations and the undersigned waives any right to and agrees
that it will not institute or take any action against the Borrower seeking
contribution, reimbursement or indemnification by the Borrower with respect to
any payments made by the undersigned to the Lender hereunder.

Guaranty and of the making of any such loans or extensions of credit,
presentment to or demand of payment from anyone whomsoever liable upon any of

notice of any sale of collateral security or any default of any sort. The
undersigned hereby agrees that, in the event that any property of the
undersigned is or may be hypothecated with property of Borrower as security for
any Obligations, any right of the undersigned to have such property of Borrower
first applied to the discharge of such Obligations is hereby irrevocably waived
by the undersigned. The undersigned waives any and all notice of the creation,
renewal, extension or accrual of any of the Obligations or of the reliance by
Agent or the Lenders upon this Guaranty. The Obligations, and each of them,
shall conclusively be deemed to have been created, contracted or incurred in
reliance upon this Guaranty. This Guaranty shall be construed as a continuing,
absolute and unconditional guaranty without regard to
<PAGE> 4
the validity, regularity or enforceability of the Obligations and any other
indebtedness at any time held or owing by the Agent and the Lenders to or for
the credit or the account of the undersigned against and on account of the
Obligations and liabilities of the undersigned hereunder. The undersigned hereby
waives any and all legal requirements that require or compel the Agent and the
Lenders to institute any action or proceedings at law or in equity against
Borrower, or anyone else, in respect of the Loans or any other document executed
in connection with the Loans or resort to or seek to realize upon or exhaust the
security held by the Agent or the Lenders or pursue any other remedy in the
Agent's or the Lenders' power, as a condition precedent to bringing an action
against the undersigned upon this Guaranty, and failure of the Agent or the
Lenders to do any of the foregoing shall not exonerate, release or discharge the
undersigned from its absolute, unconditional and independent liabilities to the
Agent and the Lenders hereunder. The undersigned hereby waives any rights to
interpose any defense (other than the defense of payment), counterclaim (other
than counterclaims which are required by law to be brought as part of the
proceedings brought by the holder hereof) or offset of any nature and
description which it may have or which may exist between and among the Agent,
any Lender, Borrower and/or the undersigned and any right to plead any election
of remedies.
(e) Rights of the Agent and the Lenders. The Agent, on behalf of the
Lenders, may bring and prosecute a separate action against the undersigned to
enforce its liabilities hereunder, whether or not any action is brought against
Borrower or any other person and whether or not Borrower or any other person is
joined in any such action or actions. Nothing shall prohibit the Agent from
exercising its rights against the undersigned, the Borrower, the security, if
any, for the Obligations, and any other person simultaneously, jointly and/or
severally. The undersigned shall be bound by each and every ruling, order and
judgment obtained by the Agent against Borrower in respect of the Obligations,
whether or not the undersigned is a party to the action or proceeding in which
such ruling, order or judgment is issued or rendered.
(f) No Discharge. The undersigned shall not be discharged, released
or exonerated, in any way, from its absolute, unconditional and independent
liabilities hereunder, even though any rights or defenses which the undersigned
may have against Borrower, the Lender or others may be destroyed, diminished or
otherwise affected by:
(i) Any declaration by the Agent or the Lenders of a default
in respect of any of the Obligations;
(ii) The exercise by the Agent or any Lender of any rights or
remedies against Borrower or any other person;
<PAGE> 5
(iii) The failure of the Agent or the Lenders to exercise any
rights or remedies against Borrower or any other person;
(iv) The sale or enforcement of, or realization upon (through
judicial foreclosure, power of sale or any other means) any
security for any of the Obligations, even though (i) recourse
may not thereafter be had against Borrower for any deficiency,
or (ii) the failure of the Agent or any Lender to pursue any
such recourse which might otherwise be available; whether by
way of deficiency judgment following judicial foreclosure, or
otherwise;
(v) Any bankruptcy or reorganization of Borrower;
(vi) The release of any other guarantor by operation of law
or otherwise; or
(vii) The voluntary or involuntary participation by Borrower
in any settlement or composition for the benefit of Borrower's
creditors either in liquidation, readjustment, receivership,
bankruptcy or otherwise.
(g) Unconditional Nature of Guaranty. This Guaranty is absolute and
unconditional and shall not be changed or affected by any representation, oral
agreement, act or thing whatsoever, except as herein otherwise expressly
provided. No modification or amendment of any provisions of this Guaranty shall
be effective unless in writing and signed by a duly authorized officer of the
Agent.
(h) Preservation of Rights. No failure on the part of the Agent or
any Lender to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right, remedy or power
hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial
exercise by the Agent or the Lenders of any right, remedy or power hereunder
preclude any other or future exercise of any other right, remedy or power. Each
and every right, remedy and power hereby granted to the Agent and the Lenders or
allowed it by law or other agreement shall be cumulative and not exclusive of
any other, and may be exercised by the Agent and Lenders at any time and from
time to time.

Ex. 99.1
Risk Factors
Set forth below are the risks that the Company believes are material to
investors who purchase or own the securities of the Company that are not
otherwise described in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
There Can Be No Assurance that the Company Will Effectively Manage Growth
The Company intends to pursue an aggressive growth strategy in the
foreseeable future. The Company plans to manage this growth by applying its
experience to new properties and markets, and expects to be successful in that
effort. If the Company does not effectively manage its rapid growth, however, it
may not be able to service its debt or pay expected dividends to its
stockholders.
The Company is Dependent on Key Personnel
The Company depends upon the efforts of its executive officers. In
particular, the Company depends upon the services of William Newman, Arnold
Laubich and Gary B. Sabin, who serve as Chairman of the Board, Chief Executive
Officer, and President of the Company, respectively. The loss of the services of
any of these executive officers or of certain other key personnel could have a
material adverse effect on the Company. William Newman has entered into an
agreement to provide consulting services to the Company through December 31,
2003, with two automatic one-year renewal periods thereafter unless terminated
by either party. Arnold Laubich and Gary B. Sabin have each entered into
employment agreements which have terms through December 31, 2002, with automatic
one-year renewal periods thereafter unless terminated by either party. In
addition, the Company has entered into employment agreements with certain of its
other executive officers. The Company has not obtained "key man" insurance with
respect to any members of its executive management team, however, and does not
expect that it will purchase such insurance in the foreseeable future.
Performance and Share Value are Subject to Risks Associated With the Real Estate
Industry
The Company Faces the Risks of All Real Estate Companies. If the Company's
assets do not generate income sufficient to pay expenses and maintain
properties, it may not be able to service debt or pay expected dividends to
stockholders. A number of factors may adversely affect the economic performance
of the Company and the value of its properties. These factors include changes in
the national, regional and local economic climate, local conditions, such as an
oversupply of space in properties like those owned by the Company, or a
reduction in demand for such properties, the attractiveness of its properties to
tenants, competition from other available properties, changes in market rental
rates and the need to periodically repair, renovate and relet space. The
Company's performance also depends on its ability to collect rent from tenants
and to pay for adequate maintenance, insurance and other operating costs
(including real estate taxes), which could increase over time. Also, the
expenses of owning and operating a property are not necessarily reduced when
circumstances such as market factors and competition cause a reduction in income
from the property. If a property is mortgaged and the Company is unable to make
the mortgage payments, the lender could foreclose on the mortgage and take the
property. In addition, interest rate levels, the availability of financing and
changes in laws and governmental regulations (including those governing usage,
zoning, the environment and taxes) may adversely affect the Company's financial
condition.
The Company is Dependent upon Economic Trends in the Retailing Industry.
The Company's properties consist largely of community and neighborhood shopping
centers and other retail properties. The Company's performance therefore is
linked to economic conditions in the market for retail space
<PAGE> 2
generally. The market for retail space has been or could be adversely affected
by the ongoing consolidation in the retail sector, the adverse financial
condition of certain large retailing companies, the excess amount of retail
space in certain markets, and increasing consumer purchases through catalogues
or the internet. To the extent that these conditions impact the market rents for
retail space, the Company's financial position and ability to service debt and
pay dividends to stockholders could be adversely affected.
The Company May be Unable to Renew Leases or Relet Space as Leases Expire.
If the Company's tenants decide not to renew their leases upon expiration, it
may not be able to relet the space. Even if the tenants do renew or the Company
can relet the space, the terms of renewal or reletting (including the cost of
required renovations) may be less favorable than current lease terms or than
expectations for the space. As of December 31, 1998, leases were scheduled to
expire on a total of approximately 35% of the space at the Company's retail
properties through the end of 2002. If the Company is unable promptly to renew
the leases or relet this space, or if the rental rates upon renewal or reletting
are significantly lower than expected rates, then the results of operations and
financial condition may be adversely affected. Consequently, cash flow and
ability to service debt and pay dividends to stockholders could be adversely
affected.
The Company is Dependent Upon the Financial Health of its Tenants. The
Company's financial position and ability to pay dividends may be affected by
financial difficulties experienced by a major tenant, including a bankruptcy,
insolvency or general downturn in business. The bankruptcy or insolvency of one
or more major tenants or a number of smaller tenants may have an adverse impact
on the Company's properties and on the income produced by such properties. As of
December 31, 1998, the Company's largest retail tenants were Kmart and Wal-mart,
whose scheduled annualized base rents represented 6.6% and 4.5%, respectively,
of the Company's annualized base rents.
New Acquisitions and Developments May Fail to Perform as Expected and
Competition for Acquisitions May Result in Increased Prices for Properties. The
Company intends to continue actively acquiring and developing community and
neighborhood shopping centers, other retail and commercial properties and
apartment communities. Newly acquired and newly developed properties may fail to
perform as expected. The Company's management may underestimate the costs
necessary to bring an acquired property up to standards established for its
intended market position. New developments are subject to a number of risks,
including construction delays, cost overruns, financing risks, failure to meet
expected occupancy and rent levels, delays in and the inability to obtain
zoning, occupancy and other governmental permits, and changes in zoning and land
use laws. These development risks may result in increased project costs and the
incurrence of costs for developments that are not pursued to completion.
Additionally, the Company expects that other major real estate investors with
significant capital will compete with it for attractive investment and
development opportunities. These competitors include publicly traded REITs,
private REITs, investment banking firms and private institutional investment
funds. This competition has increased prices for the types of properties in
which the Company invests. The Company expects to acquire and develop properties
with cash from secured or unsecured financings or from offerings of equity or
debt. The Company may sometimes acquire properties with partnership units from a
partnership that it controls. The Company may not be in a position or have the
opportunity in the future to make suitable property acquisitions or to develop
properties on favorable terms.
Because Real Estate Property Investments are Illiquid, the Company May Not
be Able to Sell Properties When Appropriate. Real estate property investments
generally cannot be sold quickly. In addition, the federal tax code imposes
restrictions on a REIT's ability to dispose of properties. The Company may not
be able to vary its portfolio promptly in response to economic or other
conditions. This
<PAGE> 3
inability to respond promptly to changes in economic or other conditions could
adversely affect the Company's financial condition and ability to service debt
and pay dividends to stockholders.
Some Potential Losses are Not Covered By Insurance. The Company carries
comprehensive liability, fire, extended coverage and rental loss insurance on
all of its properties. The Company believes the policy specifications and
insured limits of these policies are adequate and appropriate. There are,
however, certain types of losses, such as lease and other contract claims, that
generally are not insured. Should an uninsured loss or a loss in excess of
insured limits occur, the Company could lose all or a portion of the capital it
has invested in a property, as well as the anticipated future revenue from the
property. In such an event, the Company might nevertheless remain obligated for
any recourse mortgage debt or other financial obligations related to the
property.
Debt Financing, Financial Covenants, Degree of Leverage and Increases in
Interest Rates Could Adversely Affect the Company's Economic Performance
Scheduled Debt Payments Could Adversely Affect the Company's Financial
Condition. The Company's business is subject to risks normally associated with
debt financing. Cash flow could be insufficient to pay expected dividends to
stockholders and meet required payments of principal and interest. The Company
may not be able to refinance existing indebtedness (which in virtually all cases
requires substantial principal payments at maturity) and, even if it can, the
terms of such refinancing might not be as favorable as the terms of existing
indebtedness. The total principal amount of the Company's outstanding
indebtedness was $1.1 billion as of December 31, 1998. If principal payments due
at maturity cannot be refinanced, extended or paid with proceeds of other
capital transactions, such as new equity capital, cash flow may not be
sufficient in all years to repay all maturing debt. If prevailing interest rates
or other factors at the time of refinancing (such as the possible reluctance of
lenders to make commercial real estate loans) result in higher interest rates,
increased interest expense would adversely affect cash flow and the Company's
ability to service debt and pay expected dividends to stockholders.
Financial Covenants Could Adversely Affect the Company's Financial
Condition. If a property is mortgaged to secure payment of indebtedness and the
Company is unable to meet mortgage payments, the holder of the mortgage or
lender could foreclose on the property, resulting in loss of income and asset
value. Certain of the mortgages contain customary negative covenants which,
among other things, limit the Company's ability, without the prior consent of
the lender, to further mortgage the property, to enter into new leases or
materially modify existing leases, and to discontinue insurance coverage. In
addition, credit facilities and the indentures under which the Company's senior
unsecured indebtedness is issued contain certain financial and operating
covenants, including, among other things, certain coverage ratios, as well as
limitations on the Company's ability to incur secured and unsecured
indebtedness, sell all or substantially all of the Company's assets and engage
in mergers and consolidations and certain acquisitions. Foreclosure on mortgaged
properties or an inability to refinance existing indebtedness would likely have
a negative impact on the Company's financial condition and results of
operations.
The Company's Degree of Leverage Could Limit Its Ability to Obtain
Additional Financing. The Company's organizational documents do not contain any
limitation on the incurrence of indebtedness. The degree of leverage of the
Company could have important consequences, including affecting the ability to
obtain additional financing in the future for working capital, capital
expenditures, acquisitions, development or other general corporate purposes and
making the Company more vulnerable to a downturn in business or the economy
generally.
<PAGE> 4
The Company is Subject to Interest Rate Risk. Increases in interest rates,
or the loss of the benefits of any hedging agreements of the Company, would
increase the Company's interest expense, which would adversely affect cash flow
and the Company's ability to service its debt and pay dividends to stockholders.
As of December 31, 1998, the Company had $200.5 million outstanding under two
unsecured revolving credit facilities under which advances bear interest at
floating interest rates. One is a $250 million credit facility that expires in
December 1999, and the other is a $50 million credit facility that expires
in November 1999. As of December 31, 1998, the Company also had approximately
$170 million in floating rate notes and mortgages outstanding, with $49 million
maturing in August 1999, $40 million maturing in May 2000, $10 million maturing
in August 2000 and approximately $71 million maturing in various amounts not
exceeding $10 million each on various dates from July 1999 to February 2013. The
Company was not a party to any hedging agreements with respect to its floating
rate debt as of December 31, 1998. In the event of a significant increase in
interest rates, the Company would consider entering into hedging agreements with
respect to all or a portion of its floating rate debt. Although hedging
agreements would enable the Company to convert floating rate liabilities to
fixed rate liabilities, they would expose the Company to the risk that the
counterparties to such hedge agreements may not perform, which could increase
the Company's exposure to rising interest rates. Generally, however, the
counterparties to hedging agreements that the Company would enter into would be
major financial institutions. The Company may borrow additional money with
floating interest rates in the future. Increases in interest rates, or the loss
of the benefits of any hedging agreements that the Company may enter into in the
future, would increase the Company's interest expenses, which would adversely
affect cash flow and the ability of the Company to service its debt. If the
Company enters into any hedging agreements in the future, decreases in interest
rates thereafter would increase the Company's interest expenses as compared to
the underlying floating rate debt and could result in the Company making
payments to unwind such agreements.
The Ability of Stockholders to Effect Changes in Control of the Company is
Limited
Provisions of the Company's Charter and Bylaws Could Inhibit Changes in
Control. Certain provisions of the Company's charter and bylaws may delay or
prevent a change in control of the Company or other transactions that could
provide stockholders with a premium over the then-prevailing market price of
their common stock or that might otherwise be in the best interests of the
stockholders. These include a staggered Board of Directors, a stockholder rights
plan and the REIT share ownership limits described two paragraphs below. Also,
any future series of preferred stock of the Company may have certain voting
provisions that could delay or prevent a change of control or other transaction
that might involve a premium price or otherwise be in the best interests of the
common or other stockholders.
The Company Could Adopt Maryland Law Limitations on Changes in Control.
Certain provisions of Maryland law applicable to REITs prohibit "business
combinations" (including certain issuances of equity securities) with any person
who beneficially owns ten percent or more of the voting power of outstanding
shares, or with an affiliate of the REIT who, at any time within the two-year
period prior to the date in question, was the beneficial owner of ten percent or
more of the voting power of the outstanding voting shares (a so-called
"interested stockholder"), or with an affiliate of an interested stockholder.
These prohibitions last for five years after the most recent date on which the
interested stockholder became an interested stockholder. After the five-year
period, a business combination with an interested stockholder must be approved
by two super-majority stockholder votes unless, among other conditions, the
REIT's common stockholders receive a minimum price for their shares and the
consideration is received in cash or in the same form as previously paid by the
interested stockholder for its common shares. The Board of Directors of the
Company has opted out of these business combination provisions. Consequently,
the five-year prohibition and the super-majority vote requirements will not
apply to a business combination
<PAGE> 5
involving the Company. The Board of Directors may, however, repeal this election
in most cases and cause the Company to become subject to these provisions in the
future.
The Company Has a Share Ownership Limit. To facilitate maintenance of the
Company's REIT qualification and for other strategic reasons, the Company's
charter generally prohibits any person from acquiring or holding shares of the
Company's preferred and common stock in excess of 9.8% (by value or by number of
shares, whichever is more restrictive) of the outstanding shares of each class
or series of stock of the Company. The Company's Board of Directors may exempt a
person from this ownership limit under specified conditions. Absent an exemption
or a waiver, shares of stock that are purportedly transferred in excess of the
ownership limit will be automatically transferred to a trust for the exclusive
benefit of one or more charitable beneficiaries, and the purported transferee
will not acquire any rights in such shares. This ownership limit could delay or
prevent a change in control of the Company and, therefore, could adversely
affect the common stockholders' ability to realize a premium over the
then-prevailing market price for their shares.
The Company Does Not Control its Development Business
To facilitate maintenance of its REIT qualification, the Company has an
investment in a noncontrolled company that is engaged in the real estate
development business, EDV. Although the Company owns 95% of the economic
interest in EDV, its voting stock is owned directly or indirectly by a private
company controlled by certain of the Company's executive officers. The Company
therefore does not control the timing or amount of dividends or the management
and operations of this company. As a result, decisions relating to the
declaration and payment of dividends and the business policies and operations of
this company could be adverse to the Company's interests or could lead to
adverse financial results, which could adversely affect the Company's financial
condition and results of operations.
Certain Directors and Executive Officers Have Conflicts of Interest Involving
Legacy
Certain of the Company's directors and officers continue to serve as
directors and executive officers of Legacy, which Excel spun off in March 1998.
As of December 31, 1998, these individuals held 10,227,046 shares of common
stock of Legacy, which equaled approximately 31% of the currently outstanding
shares, and held options to acquire another 3,162,000 shares. The Company and
Legacy currently are parties to agreements providing for: (i) the orderly
separation of the Company and Legacy; (ii) the sharing of certain facilities and
the provision of management and administrative services by the Company to
Legacy; and (iii) the allocation of certain tax and other liabilities. Conflicts
may arise with respect to the operation and effect of these agreements and
relationships, which could have an adverse effect on the Company if not properly
resolved. In this regard, the certificate of incorporation of Legacy contains a
specific purpose clause providing that Legacy's purpose includes complying with
an intercompany agreement between the Company and Legacy as long as the
agreement remains in effect. The agreement prohibits Legacy from investing in
community and neighborhood shopping centers, power centers, malls or other
conventional retail properties, unless it has first offered to Excel (now the
Company) the opportunity to pursue such investments.
Environmental Problems are Possible and Can Be Costly
Federal, state and local laws and regulations relating to the protection
of the environment may require a current or previous owner or operator of real
estate to investigate and clean up hazardous or toxic substances or petroleum
product releases at such property. The owner or operator may have to pay a
governmental entity or third parties for property damage and for investigation
and clean-up costs incurred
<PAGE> 6
by such parties in connection with the contamination. Such laws typically impose
clean-up responsibility and liability without regard to whether the owner or
operator knew of or caused the presence of 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 and costs resulting from environmental contamination emanating from that
site.
Environmental laws also govern the presence, maintenance and removal of
asbestos. Such laws require that owners or operators of buildings containing
asbestos properly manage and maintain the asbestos, that they notify and train
those who may come into contact with asbestos and that they undertake special
precautions, including removal or other abatement, if asbestos would be
disturbed during renovation or demolition of a building. Such laws may impose
fines and penalties on building owners or operators who fail 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.
The Market Value of the Company's Publicly Traded Securities Can Be Adversely
Affected by a Number of Factors
Changes in Market Conditions Could Adversely Affect the Market Price of
the Company's Publicly Traded Securities. As with other publicly traded
securities, the value of the Company's publicly traded securities depends on
various market conditions, which may change from time to time. Among the market
conditions that may affect the value of its publicly traded securities are the
following: the extent of institutional investor interest in the Company; the
reputation of REITs generally; the reputation of REITs with portfolios similar
to the Company's; the attractiveness of the securities of REITs in comparison to
other securities (including securities issued by other real estate companies);
the Company's financial condition and performance; and general economic and
financial market conditions.
The Company's Earnings and Cash Dividends Will Affect the Market Price of
its Publicly Traded Securities. The Company believes that the market value of a
REIT's equity securities is based primarily upon the market's perception of the
REIT's growth potential and its current and potential future cash dividends, and
is secondarily based upon the real estate market value of the underlying assets.
For that reason, the Company's common stock may trade at prices that are higher
or lower than the net asset value per share. To the extent the Company retains
operating cash flow for investment purposes, working capital reserves or other
purposes, these retained funds, while increasing the value of its underlying
assets, may not correspondingly increase the market price of the Company's
shares. Failure to meet the market's expectations with regard to future earnings
and cash dividends likely would adversely affect the market price of the
Company's publicly traded equity securities.
Market Interest Rates May Have an Effect on the Value of the Company's
Publicly Traded Securities. One of the factors that investors consider important
in deciding whether to buy or sell shares of a REIT is the dividend rate on such
shares (as a percentage of the price of such shares) relative to market interest
rates. If market interest rates go up, prospective purchasers of REIT shares may
expect a higher dividend rate. Higher interest rates would not, however, result
in more dividends and, in fact, likely would increase borrowing costs and
potentially decrease funds available for dividends. Thus, higher market interest
rates could cause the market price of the Company's publicly traded securities
to go down.
The Company is Dependent on External Sources of Capital
<PAGE> 7
To qualify as a REIT, among other things, the Company must distribute to
its stockholders each year at least 95% of its REIT taxable income (excluding
any net capital gain). Because of these distribution requirements, the Company
likely will not be able to fund all future capital needs, including capital for
acquisitions, with income from operations. The Company therefore will have to
rely on third-party sources of capital, which may or may not be available on
favorable terms or at all. The Company's access to third-party sources of
capital depends on a number of things, including the market's perception of its
growth potential and its current and potential future earnings. Moreover,
additional equity offerings may result in substantial dilution of stockholders'
interests, and additional debt financing may substantially increase leverage.
The Company's Classification as a REIT is Dependent on Compliance with Federal
Income Tax Requirements
Failure of the Company to Qualify as a REIT Would Have Serious Adverse
Consequences to Stockholders. The Company believes that its predecessor
companies, the Trust and Excel, qualified for taxation as REITs for federal
income tax purposes since their first elections to be taxed as REITs for the
taxable years ended July 31, 1972 and December 31, 1987, respectively. The
Company plans to continue to operate the combined company so that it meets the
requirements for taxation as a REIT. Many of these requirements, however, are
highly technical and complex. The determination that the Company is a REIT
requires an analysis of various factual matters and circumstances that may not
be totally within the Company's control. For example, to qualify as a REIT, at
least 95% of the Company's gross income must come from certain sources that are
itemized in the REIT tax laws. The Company is also required to distribute to
stockholders at least 95% of its REIT taxable income (excluding capital gains).
The fact that the Company holds certain of its assets through partnerships and
their subsidiaries further complicates the application of the REIT requirements.
Even a technical or inadvertent mistake could jeopardize the Company's REIT
status. Furthermore, Congress and the Internal Revenue Service might make
changes to the tax laws and regulations, and the courts might issue new rulings,
that make it more difficult, or impossible, for the Company to remain qualified
as a REIT. The Company does not believe, however, that any pending or proposed
tax law changes would jeopardize its REIT status.
If the Company fails to qualify as a REIT, the Company would be subject to
federal income tax at regular corporate rates. Also, unless the IRS granted the
Company relief under certain statutory provisions, the Company would remain
disqualified as a REIT for four years following the year the Company first
failed to qualify. If the Company failed to qualify as a REIT, the Company would
have to pay significant income taxes and would therefore have less money
available for investments, debt service and dividends to stockholders. This
likely would have a significant adverse affect on the value of its securities.
In addition, the Company would no longer be required to pay any dividends to
stockholders.
The Company Could be Disqualified as a REIT or Have to Pay Taxes if its
Predecessor Companies Did Not Qualify as REITs. If either the Trust or Excel,
whose businesses were combined in the Merger on September 28, 1998 to form the
Company, failed to qualify as a REIT throughout the duration of its existence,
it might have had undistributed "C corporation earnings and profits." If that
were the case and the Trust or Excel did not distribute such earnings and
profits prior to the Merger, the Company might not qualify as a REIT. The
Company believes that each of the Trust and Excel qualified as a REIT and that,
in any event, neither the Trust nor Excel had any undistributed "C corporation
earnings and profits" at the time of the Merger. If either the Trust or Excel
failed to qualify as a REIT, it would have recognized taxable gain at the time
of the Merger (and the Company would be liable for the tax on such gain). This
would be the case even though the business combination qualified as a "tax-free
reorganization," unless the Company makes a special election that is available
under current law. The Company will make such an election with respect to each
of the Trust and Excel. This election will have the effect of requiring the
<PAGE> 8
Company, if the Trust or Excel was not qualified as a REIT, to pay corporate
income tax on any gain existing at the time of the business combination on
assets acquired in the combination if such assets are sold within 10 years after
the combination. Finally, if either the Trust or Excel did not qualify as a
REIT, the Company could be precluded from electing REIT status for up to four
years after the year in which the predecessor company failed to qualify if the
Company were determined to be a "successor" to that predecessor company.
There Can Be No Assurance That the Company Will Be Successful in Integrating Two
Previously Separate Companies
The Merger took place in September 1998. There can be no assurance that
the remaining integration of the respective operations of the Trust and Excel
will be completed without substantial difficulties. Such difficulties could
include integrating different business strategies with respect to owning,
operating, acquiring and developing real estate properties, and integrating
personnel with different business backgrounds and corporate cultures. Further,
the process of integrating management services, administrative organizations,
facilities, management information systems and other aspects of operations,
while simultaneously managing a larger and geographically expanded entity, will
present a significant challenge to the management of the Company. There can be
no assurance that there will not be substantial costs associated with the
integration process, that the integration activities will not result in a
decrease in revenues or that there will not be other material adverse effects on
the Company as a result of the integration efforts. Although the Company does
not expect to incur any current material charge against earnings for integration
costs resulting from the Merger, there can be no assurance that the Company will
not in the future incur material charges to reflect costs associated with the
Merger.
Failure to Obtain Year 2000 Compliance May Have Adverse Effects on the Company
Many currently installed computer systems, software products, time clocks
and other similar devices of the Company are coded to accept only two digit
entries in the date code field. The Company needs to have these date code fields
upgraded or recoded to accept four digit entries to distinguish 21st century
dates from 20th century dates. Uncertainty exists concerning the potential
effects associated with compliance with such "Year 2000" requirements. In
addition, even if the Company's equipment and software is Year 2000 compliant,
equipment and software used by suppliers or other third parties having a
material relationship with the Company (e.g., utilities, financial institutions,
major tenants, suppliers, governmental agencies and municipalities) may not be
Year 2000 compliant.
