ITEM 1. BUSINESS

THE COMPANY

     American Industrial Properties REIT (together with its subsidiaries, the
"Trust" or the "Company") is a Texas real estate investment trust that was
organized on September 26, 1985. On November 27, 1985, the Trust completed an
initial public offering of its common shares of beneficial interest (the
"Shares") and commenced operations. In addition to wholly owned subsidiaries,
the Trust owns a general partner interest and substantially all of the economic
interests, directly or indirectly, in three operating partnerships and a 55.84%
interest in a joint venture owning an office building.

     As of December 31, 1999, the Trust directly or indirectly owned a portfolio
of 74 real estate properties, aggregating 8.1 million net rentable square feet
("nrsf"). The Trust's emphasis is in the light industrial sector, which is
characterized as office showroom, service center and flex properties, low rise
offices, and small bay distribution properties (see "Business Objectives and
Strategy" below). Based on net rentable square feet, as of December 31, 1999,
approximately 72% of the Trust's portfolio is represented by light industrial
properties, 25% of the portfolio is represented by office properties and 3% of
the portfolio is represented by retail properties. The light industrial
properties are leased for office, office showroom, warehouse, distribution,
research and development, and light assembly purposes. The retail properties are
leased to retail merchandise establishments, restaurants and a cinema. No single
tenant accounted for more than 10% of the Trust's consolidated gross revenue for
the year ended December 31, 1999. No individual property accounted for more than
10% of total revenues of the Trust for the year ended December 31, 1999.

     The Trust has qualified as a real estate investment trust ("REIT") for
federal income tax purposes since 1985 and intends to maintain its REIT
qualification in the future. In order to preserve its REIT status, the Trust
must meet certain criteria with respect to assets, income, and shareholder
ownership. In addition, the Trust is required to distribute at least 95% of
taxable income (as defined in the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended)
(the "Code") to its shareholders.

     The Trust's executive offices are located at 6210 North Beltline Road,
Suite 170, Irving, Texas 75063. The Trust's main telephone number is
(972)756-6000. The Trust's web site address is www.aipreit.com.

BUSINESS OBJECTIVES AND STRATEGY

     The Trust's business objective is to increase shareholder value through
opportunistic investments and efficient operations in the light industrial
property sector, including office showroom, service center and flex properties,
low rise offices, and small bay distribution properties.

     Focus on Light Industrial Properties. The Trust intends to focus on the
light industrial sector of the real estate market, believing that this sector
offers a number of compelling benefits. The light industrial property sector
serves the smaller tenant population and, in many instances, serves as a low
cost office space alternative. In general, rents in light industrial office
space offer the opportunity for increased returns as suburban office rents rise.
The Trust believes that this sector a) is characterized by highly fragmented
ownership, b) offers current opportunities to purchase properties at attractive
yields and at a discount to replacement cost, and c) has, to date, avoided much
of the institutional activity leading to higher prices and lower yields common
to many other sectors of the real estate market. The Trust also believes that
there are inherent benefits to its strategy of consolidating ownership in this
sector, including greater returns through economies of scale and the ability to
offer space alternatives to tenants which may not be currently available. The
Trust's emphasis in the light industrial sector is ideally suited for the
entrepreneurial segment of the economy, which consistently leads the United
States in job growth. This property type is attractive to technology companies,
which typically prefer flexible-use property space. The majority of the Trust's
properties are situated in markets that have a concentration of technology
firms, such as Dallas, San Francisco, San Diego and Northern Virginia.

     Geographic Focus. The Trust will concentrate its efforts in the Southern
and Western regions of the United States with primary target markets in Texas
(Dallas, Houston, Austin), California (San Francisco,

                                        2
<PAGE>   4

Los Angeles, San Diego), Florida (Orlando, Tampa), Phoenix, Denver and Northern
Virginia/ Washington, D.C. The target markets are characterized by above average
population and economic growth, strong levels of new business formation and
favorable supply and demand characteristics.

     Experienced Management. The Trust has seasoned management with extensive
experience in all phases of the real estate cycle. Management utilizes
research-driven analysis of markets and sub-markets to identify targeted
opportunities and intensive due diligence efforts to evaluate potential
acquisitions. Management believes it has strong acquisition and networking
capabilities to identify acquisition opportunities on both a single property and
portfolio basis.

     Growth from Existing Portfolio. The Trust will pursue increases in cash
flow from its existing portfolio through intensive management of the portfolio
and its tenant base. Portfolio management is focused on tenant service, leasing
the portfolio to stabilized occupancy (generally 94-96%), retaining existing
tenants and increasing rental rates. In addition, the Trust will seek to control
operating expenses and should benefit from economies of scale as the size of its
portfolio increases.

     In 1999, the Trust initiated a transition to internalized property
management, accounting and leasing of its properties, thereby significantly
reducing the use of third parties in these areas. To date the Trust has
internalized 40% of the property management and 100% of the property accounting
of its portfolio on a total revenue basis. The Trust does not expect to convert
to internal property management in markets where it does not own a sufficient
critical mass to justify internalization of management. When combined with
expected savings resulting from changes in its property insurance program, the
Trust expects to realize net contribution from these efforts during 2000 in
excess of $1.0 million. In addition to these savings, the Trust expects to
realize future tangible and intangible benefits from a more direct relationship
with its tenants.

     Strategic Alternatives. In 1999, the Trust retained Salomon Smith Barney,
Inc. and Prudential Securities Incorporated as financial advisors to assist the
Trust in evaluating strategic alternatives designed to increase shareholder
value. Such alternatives may include, but are not limited to, a merger, sale or
other business combination involving the Trust, a sale of all or a portion of
the Trust's assets or continuing to pursue a growth strategy for the Trust. The
Trust can provide no assurance that a transaction will occur as a result of this
evaluation.

     Growth from Acquisitions. The Trust believes that it will be able to
acquire properties in the light industrial sector at prices which justify
investment. The Trust evaluates potential acquisitions from both a current yield
and an internal rate of return perspective. The Trust periodically estimates its
cost of capital in an effort to ensure that the internal rate of return on
proposed acquisitions exceeds such cost of capital, thereby ensuring that an
acquisition will be accretive on an equity basis. The Trust will, on occasion,
utilize an operating partnership structure to acquire properties, which offers
certain tax advantages to the seller of such properties. During 1999, a
significant reduction in equity capital available to the REIT industry caused
the Trust to scale back its acquisition plans. A total of $143 million in
acquisitions were completed during 1999 compared with $237 million during 1998.

     Financial Strategy. On a long term basis, the Trust seeks to lower its cost
of capital through the appropriate use of debt and equity capital. The Trust
continues to operate at higher levels of leverage than it would foresee on a
longer term basis. The Trust believes that its use of leverage, which is 55.7%
on a debt to total market capitalization ratio at December 31, 1999, is
justified given existing acquisition prospects and the benefits of the Trust's
transition to a larger entity. Although there is no assurance of ultimate
availability, the Trust anticipates that future equity offerings will serve to
deleverage the Trust.

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

     For the twelve months ended December 31, 1999, the Trust acquired 11 real
estate properties for approximately $143 million (see "ITEM 2. Properties" for
additional information on the acquired properties). In 1999, the Trust sold
three real estate properties and one tract of vacant land for proceeds totaling
approximately $18.1 million. The Trust also sold a light industrial property in
which the Trust was a 50% joint venture partner during 1999. From January 1,
2000 through March 22, 2000 the Trust sold three real estate

                                        3
<PAGE>   5

properties for proceeds totaling approximately $15.1 million. The Trust did not
acquire any properties during this period. The Trust's acquisitions and sales on
a chronological basis are as follows:

     - On January 15, 1999, the Trust purchased a portfolio consisting of six
       light industrial and three office buildings totaling approximately
       956,000 nrsf for total consideration of $127.3 million. The purchase
       price was primarily funded with $75.2 million in borrowings under a
       secured bridge loan with Prudential Securities Credit Corporation
       ("PSCC") and $51.8 million in Shares issued to Developers Diversified
       Realty Corporation ("DDR").

     - On May 14, 1999, the Trust sold 2.5 acres of vacant land for total
       consideration of $0.4 million resulting in a gain on sale of
       approximately $37,000.

     - On August 18, 1999, the Trust purchased one light industrial and one
       office building totaling approximately 96,000 nrsf. The $15.8 million
       acquisition price was primarily funded under the Trust's secured line of
       credit with Bank One, Texas, N.A. ("Bank One") and $5.5 million in Shares
       issued to DDR.

     - On August 31, 1999, the Trust sold one light industrial property for
       total consideration of $5.8 million resulting in a loss on sale of
       approximately $0.2 million.

     - On September 9, 1999, the Trust sold one light industrial property for
       total consideration of $4.4 million resulting in a gain on sale of
       approximately $0.2 million.

     - On December 22, 1999, the Trust recognized approximately $0.6 million as
       equity in earnings of a joint venture resulting from the sale of a light
       industrial property owned by the joint venture in which the Trust was a
       50% joint venture partner.

     - On December 27, 1999, the Trust sold one light industrial property for
       total consideration of $7.5 million resulting in a loss on sale of
       approximately $0.2 million.

     - On January 31, 2000, the Trust sold one light industrial property for
       total consideration of $4.8 million resulting in a gain on sale of
       approximately $0.8 million.

     - On February 10, 2000, the Trust sold one light industrial property for
       total consideration of $6.7 million resulting in a gain on sale of
       approximately $2.1 million.

     - On March 8, 2000, the Trust sold one light industrial property for total
       consideration of $3.6 million resulting in a gain on sale of
       approximately $0.2 million.

     The Trust completed the following equity and/or financing transactions
during the period January 1, 1999 through March 22, 2000:

     - On January 8, 1999, the Trust retired a $42.6 million secured loan with
       proceeds from a permanent financing of seven properties. Terms of the
       permanent financing include a principal amount of $41.0 million, a fixed
       rate of interest of 7.375%, a ten year term and 25 year principal
       amortization.

     - On January 15, 1999, the Trust issued 3,410,615 Shares to DDR, for
       proceeds of $51.8 million, in connection with the $127.3 million nine
       property portfolio acquisition.

     - On January 19, 1999, the Trust retired existing indebtedness of
       approximately $1.8 million on a property acquired in October 1998 with
       proceeds from a permanent financing of $7.6 million. Terms of the
       permanent financing include a fixed rate of interest of 7.33%, a seven
       year term with a three year renewal option, and 30 year principal
       amortization.

     - On January 29, 1999, the Trust entered into a secured revolving credit
       agreement with Bank One. The agreement contemplated a $150,000,000 line
       of which Bank One and Wells Fargo Bank have each committed $25,000,000.
       The Trust does not currently anticipate further syndication of this line
       due to the current lack of equity capital availability and the Trust's
       reduced level of acquisitions. The credit line is secured by mortgage
       liens on properties, provides for a graduated variable interest rate
       (depending on the Trust's overall leverage) of LIBOR plus 1.4% to LIBOR
       plus 2.0%, has a maximum
                                        4
<PAGE>   6

       loan to value ratio of 60%, and matures in January 2001. As of March 22,
       2000, the Trust has $15.5 million outstanding under this credit line.

     - On March 26, 1999, the Trust entered into an agreement with PSCC to
       extend the maturity of its acquisition credit line to April 27, 2000 and
       decrease the interest rate to LIBOR plus 1.55%. As of March 22, 2000, the
       Trust has $48.0 million outstanding under this acquisition line. The
       Trust is currently negotiating another extension of the maturity date of
       the acquisition credit line. The Trust cannot provide any assurance that
       such negotiations will result in the extension of this credit line.

     - On August 24, 1999, the Trust issued 354,839 Shares to DDR, for proceeds
       of $5.5 million, in connection with the acquisition of two properties.

     - In December 1999, the Trust redeemed 29,167 AIP Operating L.P. limited
       partnership units for approximately $0.3 million.

     - In 1999, 113,836 Shares were issued under the dividend reinvestment plan
       for proceeds of approximately $1.3 million. On February 2, 2000 an
       additional 21,521 Shares were issued under the dividend reinvestment plan
       for proceeds of approximately $0.2 million.

owners of other space for tenants. Each of these markets is highly competitive,
and other owners of property may have competitive advantages not available to
the Trust.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

     On August 20, 1997, the Trust was named as a defendant in a lawsuit related
to the January 1998 merger between the Trust and four real estate limited
partnerships. The lawsuit purported to be both a class action and a derivative
lawsuit against the defendants. The plaintiffs asserted various claims,
including breach of fiduciary duty and various securities law violations,
against the parties to the merger and certain individuals and were seeking
monetary damages. On February 3, 2000, the Court issued a summary judgment in
favor of the Trust dismissing this securities class action lawsuit. The Court,
in making its ruling, held that the plaintiffs failed to offer admissible
evidence to show they had been damaged. The deadline for the plaintiffs to file
their notice of appeal has passed. At this time, the Trust has not received any
indication that the plaintiffs have pursued an appeal. Although management
cannot predict the outcome of the possible appeal of such litigation, management
does not expect the liabilities, if any, that may ultimately result from such
legal actions to have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial
position or results of operations of the Trust.

     On April 13, 1998, the Trust was named as a defendant in an additional
purported class action lawsuit related to the Trust's merger with the four real
estate limited partnerships. The plaintiffs asserted various claims, including
breach of fiduciary and contractual duties and various securities law
violations, against the parties to the merger. In December 1999, the defendants
settled this lawsuit. The Trust's share of the settlement cost was approximately
$58,000.

respectively. The Trust anticipates paying distributions for the foreseeable
future.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS

     The following discussion should be read in conjunction with "Item 6.
Selected Financial Data" and the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Trust
and accompanying Notes included elsewhere in this Form 10-K. The statements
contained in this report that are not historical facts are forward-looking
statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
Actual results may differ materially from those included in the forward-looking
statements. These forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties
including, but not limited to, changes in general economic conditions in the
markets that could impact demand for the Trust's properties and changes in
financial markets and interest rates impacting the Trust's ability to meet its
financing needs and obligations.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

  Comparison of 1999 to 1998

     During 1999, the Trust completed acquisitions with an aggregate purchase
price of $143 million. As a result of these acquisitions, the weighted average
net rentable square footage owned by the Trust increased to 8,286,000 in 1999
from 5,453,000 in 1998, an increase of 52%. Property revenues increased 80% to
$86,882,000 in 1999 from $48,357,000 in 1998, and income from property
operations (which is defined as

                                       15
<PAGE>   17

property revenues less property operating expenses, excluding depreciation and
amortization, interest expense, Trust administration and overhead expenses, or
provision for possible losses on real estate) increased 86% to $59,998,000 in
1999 from $32,311,000 in 1998. On a same property basis, for properties owned as
of January 1, 1998, excluding the two retail properties, property revenues
increased to $30,184,000 in 1999 from $29,029,000 in 1998, an increase of 4.0%,
comprised of a 4.4% increase in revenue related to industrial properties and a
3.4% increase in revenue related to office properties. These increases in
revenue stemmed principally from an increase in rental rates and/or an increase
in overall occupancy at a number of the properties. Overall leased occupancy of
the Trust's portfolio was 93.6% at December 31, 1999 compared to 91.9% at
December 31, 1998.

     Same property operating expenses, for properties owned as of January 1,
1998, excluding the two retail properties, increased by 5.5%, primarily as a
result of higher property taxes. Property operating expenses increased 5.0% for
the industrial properties and 6.2% for the office properties. On a same property
basis, for properties owned as of January 1, 1998, excluding the two retail
properties, net operating income (which is defined as property revenue,
excluding straight line rents, less property operating expenses and which does
not include depreciation and amortization, interest expense, or Trust
administration and overhead expenses) increased to $20,397,000 in 1999 from
$19,747,000 in 1998, an increase of 3.3%. This overall increase is a result of
the increase in revenue and expenses explained above and is a 4.1% increase
related to industrial properties and a 1.9% increase related to office
properties. Due to the small number of properties in the same property
comparison, results can be unduly influenced by results from, or non-renewal of,
a single large lease.

     Income from operations increased to $15,008,000 in 1999 from a loss on
operations of $4,295,000 in 1998 as a result of the increase in income from
property operations explained above, offset by an increase in total interest
expense of $11,423,000 due to an additional $94,600,000 in property financing in
1999, a full year of interest expense on properties acquired in 1998 and the
provision for losses on real estate of $10,060,000 recorded in 1998 (see below).
In addition, Trust administration and overhead expenses increased $899,000 due
to an increase in full time employees, including the addition of in-house
general counsel, expensing internal acquisition department costs previously
capitalized, costs associated with prospective acquisitions and higher general
costs due to the increased activity of the Trust in 1999. Depreciation and
amortization increased $6,152,000 due to the acquisition of properties in 1999
and a full year of depreciation on properties acquired in 1998.

     In 1999, the Trust did not record a provision for possible losses on real
estate. In December 1998, the Trust recorded a provision for possible losses of
$10,060,000 as a result of its decision to sell its retail property in Colorado
in 1999. During 1999, the Trust did not receive an acceptable offer for this
property, therefore, on December 31, 1999 the Trust reclassified this property
to held for investment and recorded depreciation expense for the full year.

     In 1999, the Trust recognized $624,000 ($0.03 per Share) as income in
equity of a joint venture resulting from the sale of a light industrial property
that the Trust was a 50% joint venture partner. The Trust did not sell any
properties in 1998. During 1999, the Trust recognized extraordinary losses
totaling $513,000 ($0.03 per Share) from the early extinguishment of debt. In
1998, the Trust recognized extraordinary losses totaling $5,803,000 ($0.47 per
Share) comprised of loss on extinguishment of debt of $23,000 and costs related
to a change in control of $5,780,000. The costs related to the change in control
included approximately $2,484,000 for payments made to the Trust's senior
officers in December 1998 pursuant to severance and change in control agreements
which were triggered when DDR's ownership position exceeded 33%, an accrual of
$2,960,000 related to the estimated fair market value of future payments through
2008 to the senior officers under previously granted dividend equivalent rights,
approximately $300,000 related to vesting of restricted shares previously
granted to the senior officers and $36,000 in payroll taxes associated with the
payments to the senior officers. During 1999, the Trust sold three properties
and one tract of vacant land resulting in a total loss of $200,000 ($0.01 per
Share).

     The Trust's emphasis in the light industrial sector is ideally suited for
the entrepreneurial segment of the economy, which consistently leads the United
States in job growth. This property type is attractive to technology companies,
which typically prefer flexible-use property space. The majority of the Trust's

                                       16
<PAGE>   18

properties are situated in markets that have a concentration of technology
firms, such as Dallas, San Francisco, San Diego, and Northern Virginia.

  Comparison of 1998 to 1997

     During 1998, the Trust completed acquisitions with an aggregate purchase
price of $237 million. As a result of these acquisitions, the weighted average
property square footage owned by the Trust increased to 5,453,000 in 1998 from
1,687,000 in 1997, an increase of 221%. Property revenues increased 296% to
$48,357,000 in 1998 from $12,201,000 in 1997, and income from property
operations (which is defined as property revenues less property operating
expenses, excluding depreciation and amortization, interest expense, Trust
administration and overhead expenses, or provision for possible losses on real
estate) increased 310% to $32,311,000 in 1998 from $7,886,000 in 1997. On a same
property basis, for properties owned as of January 1, 1997, property revenues
increased to $9,916,000 in 1998 from $9,527,000, an increase of 4.1%, comprised
of a 3.2% increase in revenue related to industrial properties, a 16.7% increase
in revenue related to one office property and a 3.3% increase in revenue at the
Trust's retail property in Denver, Colorado. These increases in revenue stemmed
principally from an increase in rental rates and/or an increase in overall
occupancy at a number of the properties. Overall leased occupancy of the Trust's
portfolio was 91.9% at December 31, 1998 compared to 92.4% at December 31, 1997.

     Same property operating expenses increased by 6.5%, primarily as a result
of higher property taxes. On a same property basis, income from property
operations increased to $6,073,000 in 1998 from $5,920,000 in 1997, an increase
of 2.6%. This overall increase was a result of the increase in revenue explained
above and was comprised of a 1.0% increase related to industrial properties, a
38.3% increase related to one office property and a 1.7% increase related to the
Trust's retail properties. Due to the small number of properties in the same
property comparison, results can be unduly influenced by results from, or
non-renewal of, a single large lease.

     Loss from operations increased to $4,295,000 in 1998 from $3,007,000 in
1997 as a result of the increase in income from property operations explained
above, an increase in total interest expense of $9,361,000 due to an additional
$145,100,000 in property financing in 1998 and a full year of interest expense
on properties acquired in 1997 and a provision for losses on real estate of
$10,060,000 (see below). In addition, Trust administration and overhead expenses
increased $1,225,000 due to a 170% increase in full time employees, expensing
internal acquisition department costs and higher general costs due to the
increased activity of the Trust in 1998. Depreciation and amortization increased
$5,226,000 due to the acquisition of properties in 1998 and a full year of
depreciation on properties acquired in 1997.

     In December 1998, the Trust recorded a provision for possible loss of
$10,060,000 as a result of its decision to sell its retail property in Colorado
in 1999. The Trust estimated the net sale proceeds to be received on such sale
and recorded the provision. The estimate of net sale proceeds was based on
subjective judgments.

     During 1998, the Trust recognized extraordinary losses totaling $5,803,000
($0.47 per Share) comprised of loss on extinguishment of debt of $23,000 and
costs related to a change in control of $5,780,000. The costs related to change
in control included approximately $2,484,000 for payments made to the Trust's
senior officers in December 1998 pursuant to severance and change in control
agreements which were triggered when DDR's ownership position exceeded 33%, an
accrual of $2,960,000 related to the estimated fair market value of future
payments through 2008 to the senior officers under previously granted dividend
equivalent rights, approximately $300,000 related to vesting of restricted
shares previously granted to the senior officers and $36,000 in payroll taxes
associated with the payments to the senior officers. In 1997, the Trust
recognized extraordinary gains on the extinguishment of debt of $2,643,000
($0.80 per Share). During 1997, the Trust sold two properties for a total gain
of $2,163,000 ($0.65 per Share). The Trust did not sell any properties in 1998.

  Analysis of Cash Flows

     COMPARISON OF 1999 TO 1998

     Cash flow provided by operating activities in 1999 was $33,059,000. This
results from the Trust's net income of $14,606,000 offset by net non-cash
charges totaling $16,103,000 related to the loss on the extinguishment of debt,
losses on the sale of real estate properties, minority interests, and
depreciation and amortization. Issuance of Shares to Trust Managers of $129,000,
an increase in restricted cash of $294,000 and a decrease in other assets of
$5,907,000 further increased cash flow provided by operating activities. In
addition, accounts payable, other liabilities and tenant security deposits
decreased $4,144,000 and accrued interest increased $752,000 reducing cash flow
provided by operating activities.

     Cash flow used in investing activities in 1999 was $141,150,000,
representing amounts expended on the acquisition of real estate and related
working capital totaling $142,737,000 and capitalized expenditures of
$15,769,000 offset by net proceeds from the sale of real estate properties
totaling $17,356,000.

     Cash flow provided by financing activities in 1999 was $104,450,000. This
amount reflects net proceeds from mortgage financings and notes payable of
$68,829,000 and proceeds from the private placements of Shares for net proceeds
of $55,458,000 offset by the payment of loan costs of $3,029,000, the redemption
of limited partnership units totaling $329,000 and distributions to shareholders
and limited partnership unit holders of $16,479,000.

     Cash flow provided by operating activities in 1998 was $2,961,000. This
results from the Trust's net loss of $10,070,000 offset by net non-cash charges
totaling $21,672,000 related to change in control costs, provision for possible
real estate losses, minority interests, and depreciation and amortization. This
amount is offset by the issuance of Shares to Trust Managers of $312,000, an
increase in restricted cash of $3,301,000 and other assets of $10,073,000. In
addition, an increase in accounts payable, other liabilities and tenant security
deposits of $3,213,000 and an increase in accrued interest of $1,208,000 further
increased cash flow provided by operating activities.

     Cash flow used in investing activities in 1998 was $179,673,000,
representing amounts expended on the acquisition of real estate and related
working capital totaling $172,133,000 and capitalized expenditures of
$7,540,000.

     Cash flow provided by financing activities in 1998 was $171,174,000. This
amount reflects net proceeds from mortgage financings and notes payable of
$153,273,000 and proceeds from the private placements of Shares for net proceeds
of $28,578,000 offset by the payment of loan costs of $1,852,000, the repurchase
of Shares totaling $1,600,000 and distributions to shareholders and limited
partnership unit holders of $7,225,000.

     FUNDS FROM OPERATIONS

     The Board of Governors of the National Association of Real Estate
Investment Trusts, Inc. ("NAREIT") defines Funds from Operations ("FFO") as net
income (loss) computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles ("GAAP"), excluding gains or losses from debt restructuring and sales
of property, plus real estate related depreciation and amortization, and after
adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. The Trust
calculates FFO in a manner consistent with the NAREIT definition. In addition,
NAREIT recommends that extraordinary items or significant non-recurring items
that distort comparability should not be considered in arriving at FFO.
Accordingly, the Trust does not include extraordinary items or provision for
possible losses on real estate in its calculation of FFO.

     Effective January 1, 2000 NAREIT has revised the calculation of FFO to
include all operating results, both recurring and non-recurring, except those
results defined as "extraordinary items" under GAAP and gains and losses from
sales of depreciable operating properties. Although the Trust does not
anticipate a significant impact on current FFO calculations as a result of this
change, the Trust has deferred costs totaling $1,229,000 at December 31, 1999
related to an ongoing strategic review of alternatives for the Trust. Under the
new FFO guidelines, expenses related to these costs cannot be excluded from the
calculation of FFO.

                                       18
<PAGE>   20

Should a strategic transaction not result from this review, the Trust will
expense all such deferred costs during 2000.

     The Trust believes FFO is an appropriate measure of its performance
relative to other REITs. FFO provides investors with an understanding of the
ability of the Trust to incur and service debt and make capital expenditures.
There can be no assurance that FFO presented by the Trust is comparable to
similarly titled measures of other REITs. While other REITs may not always use a
similar definition, this information does add comparability to those which have
adopted the NAREIT definition. FFO should not be considered as an alternative to
net income or other measurements under generally accepted accounting principles
as an indicator of the Trust's operating performance or to cash flows from
operating, investing, or financing activities as a measure of liquidity. FFO
does not reflect working capital changes, cash expenditures for capital
improvements, or principal payments on indebtedness.

     The following table shows the Trust's cash flows from its operating,
investing and financing activities prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles:

YEAR 2000 ISSUES

     To date, the Trust has not experienced any system failures or
miscalculations that could have caused the disruption of operations as a result
of the Year 2000 software issues. The Trust's proactive plan was instrumental in
insuring that there were no Year 2000 issues associated with internally used
hardware and systems. In addition, the Trust is not aware of any Year 2000
issues related to external service providers.

     The Trust does not expect historical and future costs related to the Year
2000 issue to have a material effect on the consolidated financial position or
results of operations of the Trust. To date the effect of the Year 2000 problem
has not had a material impact on the Trust, but management cannot provide
assurance

                                       19
<PAGE>   21

that unforeseen circumstances will not arise which could cause a material
adverse effect upon the Trust's operations.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     The principal sources of funds for the Trust's liquidity requirements are
funds generated from operation of the Trust's real estate assets, equity
offerings, debt financings and/or refinancings, and unrestricted cash reserves.
In addition, the Trust may from time to time sell properties that do not
complement the Trust's property emphasis or geographic target markets. Proceeds
from such sales could be used for working capital purposes, debt reduction or
reinvested into other properties. As of December 31, 1999, the Trust had $2.5
million in unrestricted cash.

     In August 1998, the Trust entered into a definitive agreement providing for
a strategic investment by DDR in the Trust. Under the terms of the Share
Purchase Agreement (the "Agreement"), DDR was obligated to purchase $115 million
of common shares and up to $200 million in additional equity, subject to certain
conditions, to fund property acquisitions approved by the Trust's Board. As of
December 31, 1999, DDR purchased 9.7 million common shares for $148.6 million.
Proceeds related to this agreement were used to fund $143 million in property
acquisitions in 1999 as well as the purchase of properties in 1998.

     In addition to the equity raised, the Trust utilized both long term and
short term secured financing to fund property acquisitions. The Trust completed
approximately $135.6 million in permanent fixed rate financings in 1999,
including the $41.0 million refinancing of the Prudential Securities bridge loan
in January 1999. In January 1999, the Trust initiated a secured acquisition
credit facility with Bank One. The agreement contemplated a $150 million credit
line of which Bank One and Wells Fargo Bank have each committed $25 million. The
Trust does not currently anticipate further syndication of this line due to the
current lack of equity capital availability and the Trust's reduced level of
acquisitions. The credit line, which is secured by mortgage liens on properties,
provides for a graduated variable interest rate (depending on the Trust's
overall leverage) of LIBOR plus 1.4% to LIBOR plus 2.0%, has a maximum loan to
value ratio of 60%, and matures in January 2001. As of December 31, 1999, the
Trust has $19.5 million outstanding under this credit line, which bears interest
at LIBOR plus 2.00%. At December 31, 1999, the blended interest rate for the
Bank One credit line is 8.47%.

     The Trust also has approximately $48.0 million outstanding under a $75
million PSCC secured acquisition line bearing interest at a variable rate based
on the 30 day LIBOR plus 1.55%, currently 8.03% and a maturity date of April 27,
2000. The Trust is currently negotiating an extension of the maturity date of
the acquisition credit line. The Trust cannot provide any assurance that such
negotiations will result in the extension of the credit line. The Trust
anticipates the retirement of this debt through sales of properties or through
proceeds from long-term mortgage financings.

     Including the Bank One credit line and the PSCC secured acquisition credit
line at December 31, 1999, the Trust had $334.9 million in mortgage debt
outstanding, of which approximately $263.8 million was represented by fixed rate
debt, including $1.5 million in unamortized debt premium with a weighted average
interest rate of 7.40%, and $69.6 million was represented by variable rate debt
with a weighted average interest rate of 8.15%. These weighted average interest
rates represent an average of the applicable stated interest rate and do not
include the amortization of deferred loan costs (or debt premiums) which will
produce a higher (or lower) weighted average interest rate.

     At December 31, 1999, the Trust's total market capitalization (based upon a
December 31, 1999 closing share price of $12.375 per share) was approximately
$589.9 million. Based upon this amount, the Trust's debt to total market
capitalization at December 31, 1999 was 55.7%. The Trust is currently operating
at higher levels of leverage than it would foresee on a longer term basis. The
Trust believes that the use of leverage is justified given existing acquisition
prospects and the benefits of the Trust's transition to a larger entity.
Although there is no assurance of ultimate availability, the Trust anticipates
that equity will be raised in the future to deleverage the Trust.

                                       20
<PAGE>   22

     On a long term basis, the Trust expects to meet liquidity requirements
generated by property operating expenses, debt service, and future distributions
with funds generated by the operations of its real properties. Should such funds
not cover these needs, the possibility of future distributions may be reduced or
eliminated. Although the Trust believes that its current leverage is justified,
the risk of financial default could rise substantially if the Trust is unable to
complete future equity offerings or if property operating results decline.

     The nature of the Trust's operating properties, which generally provide for
leases with a term of between three and five years, results in an approximate
annual turnover rate of 20% to 25% of the Trust's tenants and related revenue.
Such turnover requires capital expenditures related to tenant improvements and
leasing commissions, capital repairs and replacements, initial capital
expenditures and expansions and renovations related to properties acquired in
order to maintain or improve the Trust's occupancy levels. These costs were
$15,769,000 for the year ended December 31, 1999, compared to $7,540,000 for the
year ended December 31, 1998. These costs have historically been funded out of
the Trust's operating cash flow and cash reserves. The Trust has made no
commitments for additional capital expenditures beyond those related to normal
leasing and releasing activities, related escrows and initial capital
expenditures, which are costs necessary to bring acquired properties to intended
leasable condition at the time of acquisition.

     A distribution of $0.22 per share was paid on October 14, 1999 and July 14,
1999 and a $0.20 per share distribution was paid on April 15, 1999 and January
20, 1999. The $0.22 per share distribution declared on November 4, 1999 was paid
on January 14, 2000. The Trust declared a distribution of $0.22 per share,
payable on April 14, 2000 to shareholders of record on April 5, 2000. The
Trust's distribution policy is to conserve capital by, over time, lowering its
FFO payout ratio. The Trust believes that the minimum FFO payout ratio in order
to comply with the requirement to distribute 95% of taxable income, is
approximately 50-55% based on the Trust's current capital structure. Future
distributions will be at the discretion of the Board of Trust Managers. The
Trust has approximately $34.3 million in net operating loss carryforwards, a
portion of which could be utilized to reduce the payout of 95% taxable income
required by the Internal Revenue Code.

     On February 18, 1998, the Trust filed a Form S-3 shelf registration with
the Securities and Exchange Commission which would provide for the issuance of
up to $500 million in Common Shares of Beneficial Interest, Preferred Shares of
Beneficial Interest, unsecured senior debt securities and/or warrants to
purchase such securities in amounts, at prices and on terms to be determined by
market conditions at the time of future offerings. To date, this shelf
registration has not been utilized.

ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

     The following discussion about the Trust's risk management includes
forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Actual results
could differ materially from the results discussed in the forward-looking
statements.

     The Trust's primary market risk exposure is to changes in interest rates.
The Trust is exposed to market risk related to its secured acquisition line with
PSCC and the Bank One credit line as discussed in "Management's Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation -- Liquidity and
Capital Resources." The acquisition line and credit line bear interest at
variable rates and are subject to fluctuations in the market.

     The Trust also uses long-term and medium-term secured debt as a source of
capital. These debt instruments are typically issued at fixed interest rates.
When these debt instruments mature, the Trust typically refinances such debt at
then-existing market interest rates which may be more or less than the interest
rates on the maturing debt.

     If the interest rate for variable rate debt was 100 basis points higher or
lower during 1999, the Trust's interest expense would have been increased or
decreased by approximately $1,069,000. There is no fixed rate debt maturing in
2000.

     The Trust historically has not hedged its exposure to fluctuations in
interest rates and currently has no plans to do so in the future.

SEVERANCE AND CHANGE IN CONTROL AGREEMENTS

     On April 29, 1998, the Trust entered into Severance and Change in Control
Agreements with each of Messrs. Wolcott, Friedland, Simpson and Warner, which
agreements replaced and superseded existing Bonus and Severance Agreements with
such officers. Among other things, the agreements provide that, upon a Change in
Control (as defined), the respective officer will receive an amount equal to
2.50 times such officer's annualized base salary rate plus targeted bonus amount
for the fiscal year in which the first event constituting a Change in Control
occurs. In addition, each such officer will receive certain employee benefits
for, in general, a one-year period commencing on the date of a Change in
Control. Each agreement also provides that (1) if any payment made by the Trust
to the respective officer would be subject to the "golden parachute" excise tax
imposed under Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, the
Trust will pay to such officer an additional amount to offset the effects of
such excise tax, (2) the Trust agrees to pay certain attorneys' and related fees
and expenses incurred by the respective officer to enforce his rights under the
agreement, and (3) all unvested awards under the Trust's Employee and Trust
Manager Incentive Share Plan shall immediately vest upon a Change in Control and
the officer shall have the right to exercise any vested awards during the
balance of the award's term. Each agreement commenced on April 29, 1998 and
continues for a five-year term and shall automatically renew for one-year terms
unless earlier terminated in accordance with the agreement.

CHANGE IN CONTROL

     Per the Severance and Change in Control Agreements, the term "Change in
Control" is defined, among other things, as an acquisition of over 33% of the
Trust's voting securities. On December 10, 1998, a Change in Control occurred
upon the filing by DDR of Amendment No. 3 to Schedule 13D. Accordingly, payments
totaling $2,484,375 to Messrs. Wolcott, Friedland, Simpson and Warner were made.
In addition, outstanding options to purchase Shares held by these employees
became immediately exercisable and the restrictions on any restricted shares
held by these employees were lifted.

OPTION GRANTS

     There were no share option grants made in the 1999 Fiscal Year to the
Trust's executive officers.

(a)  The Trust's share price at December 31, 1999 was $12.375 which is less than
     the option exercise prices of either $13.625 or $15.00 per share.
     Therefore, the value of unexercised in-the-money options at December 31,
     1999 is zero.

ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

     During 1998, the Trust on occasion entered into unsecured borrowings with
DDR. Such borrowings bore a fixed rate of interest of 10.25%, provided for
quarterly payments of interest and were due thirty days after demand. The Trust
repaid all such borrowings, including payment of $111,000 of interest in the
first quarter of 1999. The total interest on such borrowing was $661,000 for
1998. The Trust did not enter into any such borrowings in 1999.

     Certain real estate investments are managed by Quorum Real Estate Services
Corporation ("Quorum"), an affiliate of Realco, and DDR, major shareholders of
the Trust. Quorum and DDR are paid competitive rates for services, including,
but not limited to, construction, tenant finish, leasing and management. The
Trust paid Quorum management fees of $709,000, leasing commissions of $712,000,
brokerage fees of $92,000, and construction management fees of $66,000, for the
year ended December 31, 1999. For the year ended December 31, 1998, management
fees and leasing commissions paid by the Trust to Quorum were $548,000 and
$24,000, respectively. The Trust paid DDR management fees of $17,900 for the
year ended December 31, 1999 and $19,000 for the year ended December 31, 1998.

     Effective October 8, 1998, DDR acquired an 89% limited partnership interest
and a 1% general partnership interest in DDR/Tech 29 Limited Partnership, a
limited partnership whose assets consist of two light industrial properties and
one office property totaling 290,991 nrsf located in Silver Springs, Maryland.
Several selling entities and affiliates thereof acquired the remaining
partnership interests. These partnership interests are convertible into DDR
common shares. As of November 20, 1998, the Trust acquired 88.5% of DDR's
limited partnership interest and, in consideration therefore, issued
approximately $16.1 million in Shares to DDR. The acquisition was deemed to be
effective as of October 8, 1998 and the purchase price included interest accrued
from such date.

     On November 20, 1998, the Trust purchased undeveloped land from DDR in the
amount of $2.3 million plus interest. The purchase was accomplished through the
issuance of Shares to DDR in accordance with the Share Purchase Agreement dated
July 30, 1998. This land was then contributed by the Trust to a joint venture
with a third party.

     The Trust currently leases space to an individual serving as a Trust
Manager at competitive market rates. For the years ended December 31, 1999 and
December 31, 1998, this Trust Manager paid $24,400 and $9,800 in lease payments
to the Trust, respectively.

                         REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS

Trust Managers and Shareholders
American Industrial Properties REIT:

     We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of American
Industrial Properties REIT (the "Trust") as of December 31, 1999 and 1998, and
the related consolidated statements of operations, shareholders' equity, and
cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1999.
Our audits also included the financial statement schedule listed in the Index at
Item 14(a)(2). These financial statements and schedule are the responsibility of
the Trust's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements and schedule based on our audits.

     We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally
accepted in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform
the audit 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
American Industrial Properties REIT at December 31, 1999 and 1998, and the
consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three
years in the period ended December 31, 1999, in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States. Also, in our opinion, the
related financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic
financial statements taken as a whole, present fairly in all material respects
the information set forth therein.

NON-CASH INVESTING AND FINANCING ACTIVITIES:

     Property Operations. As a result of the acquisition of 11 properties and an
undeveloped tract of land in 1999, the Trust assumed approximately $1.9 million
of accounts payable and tenant security deposits.

     As a result of the acquisition of 29 properties in 1998, the Trust issued
$34.2 million in common shares, $0.9 million in limited partnership units,
received approximately $0.6 million in other assets and assumed approximately
$1.2 million of accounts payable and tenant security deposits.

     During 1997, in connection with the merger with four real estate limited
partnerships, the Trust issued Shares valued at $57.9 million and $3.7 million
in limited partnership units. The Trust also assumed $31.2 million in mortgage
notes payable and $7.2 million in unsecured notes payable. In addition, with the
acquisition of other properties, the Trust issued $2.7 million in limited
partnership units.

     In 1999 the Trust redeemed 29,167 limited partnership units resulting in an
increase to Shareholder's equity of $0.06 million.

     Real Estate Held for Sale. During 1999, the Trust reclassified six
properties and four tracts of land with a cost basis of $33.5 million to real
estate held for sale. As of December 31, 1999, three of the industrial
properties and one tract of land have been sold. During 1999, the Trust did not
receive an acceptable offer for the retail property classified as held for sale
at December 31, 1998. This property, with a cost basis of $29.4 million, was
reclassified to held for investment at December 31, 1999 and depreciation
expense was recorded for the full year.

     Debt Conversion. During 1998, the Trust issued $42.7 million of Shares to
DDR in exchange for unsecured notes payable to DDR. During 1997, the Trust
issued $5.5 million of Shares to Realco in exchange for unsecured notes payable
to Realco.

                      AMERICAN INDUSTRIAL PROPERTIES REIT

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                               DECEMBER 31, 1999

NOTE 1 -- SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

     General. American Industrial Properties REIT is a self-administered Texas
real estate investment trust which, as of December 31, 1999, directly or
indirectly owns and operates commercial real estate properties consisting of
industrial properties, office buildings and 2 retail properties. The Trust was
formed September 26, 1985 and commenced operations on November 27, 1985.

     Principles of Consolidation. The consolidated financial statements of the
Trust include the accounts of American Industrial Properties REIT and its
wholly-owned subsidiaries and controlled subsidiaries. Significant intercompany
balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Joint ventures
and other non-controlled subsidiaries are accounted for under the equity method
of accounting. The Trust recognizes its proportionate share of earnings as
income in equity in joint ventures in the accompanying statements of operations.

     Use of Estimates. The preparation of financial statements in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial
statements and accompanying notes. Actual results may differ significantly from
such estimates and assumptions.

     Real Estate. The Trust carries its real estate held for investment at
depreciated cost unless the asset is determined to be impaired. Real estate
classified as held for sale is carried at lower of depreciated cost or fair
value less costs to sell. The Trust records impairment losses on long-lived
assets used in operations when events and circumstances indicate that the assets
might be impaired and the expected undiscounted cash flows estimated to be
generated by those assets are less than the related carrying amounts. If an
asset held for investment is determined to be impaired, the impairment would be
measured based upon the excess of the asset's carrying value over the fair
value. In addition, the Trust records impairment losses on assets held for sale
when the estimated sales proceeds, after estimated selling costs, are less than
the carrying value of the related asset (see Note 2).

     Property improvements which extend the useful life are capitalized while
maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Depreciation of buildings and
capital improvements is computed using the straight-line method over forty
years. Depreciation of tenant improvements is computed using the straight-line
method over the lease term, but not to exceed ten years.

     Cash and Cash Equivalents. Cash equivalents include demand deposits and all
highly liquid instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or
less. Restricted cash amounts reflect escrow deposits held by third parties for
the payment of taxes and insurance and reserves held by third parties for
property repairs or tenant improvements. Certain escrow deposits held by third
parties are non-interest bearing.

     Other Assets. Other assets primarily consist of direct costs related to
potential property acquisitions, deferred rents receivable, deferred commissions
and loan fees. Potential third party property acquisition costs are capitalized
and depreciated on a straight-line basis over the life of the asset when the
asset is acquired. Leasing commissions are capitalized and amortized on a
straight-line basis over the life of the lease. Loan fees are capitalized and
amortized to interest expense on a level yield basis over the term of the
related loan.

     Rents and Tenant Reimbursements. Rental income, including contractual rent
increases or delayed rent starts, is recognized on a straight-line basis over
the lease term. The Trust has recorded deferred rent receivable (representing
the excess of rental revenue recognized on a straight-line basis over actual
rents received under the applicable lease provisions) of $2,916,000 and
$1,398,000 at December 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively.

     Several tenants in the Trust's retail properties are also required to pay
as rent a percentage of their gross sales volume, to the extent such percentage
rent exceeds their base rents. Such percentage rents amounted to

                                       F-8
<PAGE>   52
                      AMERICAN INDUSTRIAL PROPERTIES REIT

           NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)

$234,000, $172,000 and $94,000 for the years ended December 31, 1999, 1998 and
1997, respectively. In addition to paying base and percentage rents, most
tenants are required to reimburse the Trust for operating expenses in excess of
a negotiated base amount.

     Income Tax Matters. The Trust operates as a real estate investment trust
("REIT") for federal income tax purposes. Under the REIT provisions, the Trust
is required to distribute 95% of REIT taxable income and is allowed a deduction
for distributions paid during the year. The Trust had taxable income for the
years ended December 31, 1998 and December 31, 1997 and expects to report
taxable income for the year ending December 31, 1999.

     The Trust has a net operating loss carry forward from 1998 and prior years
of approximately $34,301,000. The net operating losses are subject to
restrictions on their use due to an ownership change, and as such, can only be
used against approximately $1,200,000 of taxable income per year. The losses may
be carried forward for up to 15 years. The present losses will expire beginning
in the year 2004. Management intends to operate the Trust in such a manner as to
continue to qualify as a REIT and to continue to distribute cash flow in excess
of taxable income.

     Earnings and profits, which will determine the taxability of distributions
to shareholders, will differ from that reported for financial reporting purposes
due primarily to differences in the basis of the assets and the estimated useful
lives used to compute depreciation.

     Earnings Per Share. Basic earnings per share excludes any dilutive effects
of options, warrants and convertible securities. The computation of diluted
earnings per share does not include common share equivalents where the inclusion
of such does not result in dilution (based upon application of the "treasury
stock" method) or, in periods where there is a net loss from operations, is
anti-dilutive.

     Share Compensation. The Trust accounts for its share compensation
arrangements using the intrinsic value method.

     Concentrations. As of December 31, 1999, the Trust owns 74 real estate
properties in 11 states. The Trust's industrial properties are concentrated in
the Texas market with 23 of the 57 properties located in the Dallas, Houston and
Austin areas. The office buildings are primarily located in the west with 7 of
the 15 located in California. The two retail properties are located in Colorado
and Florida. The principal competitive factors in these markets are price,
location, quality of space, and amenities. In each case, the Trust owns a small
portion of the total similar space in the market and competes with owners of
other space for tenants. Each of these markets is highly competitive, and other
owners of property may have competitive advantages not available to the Trust.

     Segment Reporting. The Trust classifies its reportable segments by property
type. See Note 15 for the Trust's segment disclosures.

     During 1999, the Trust purchased a portfolio of nine properties for $127.3
million. The purchase price was primarily funded with $75.2 million in
borrowings secured under a secured bridge loan with PSCC and $51.8 million in
common shares issued to DDR. During 1999, the Trust also acquired a portfolio of
two properties for $15.8 million. The purchase price was primarily funded under
a secured line of credit with Bank One and $5.5 million in common shares issued
to DDR.

     During 1999, the Trust reclassified six industrial properties and four
tracts of land from held for investment to held for sale. One tract of land was
sold in the second quarter of 1999 for $350,000 resulting in a $37,000 gain. The
Trust sold two industrial properties in the third quarter of 1999 resulting in a
net loss of approximately $59,000. The Trust sold an industrial property in the
fourth quarter of 1999 resulting in a net loss of approximately $178,000. The
remaining three industrial properties and three tracts of vacant land are not
located in target markets currently identified by the Trust for future
investment. At December 31, 1999, the Trust has contracts pending to sell two of
the three remaining industrial properties and anticipates consummation these
sales in the first quarter of 2000. The Trust's intent is to sell the remaining
industrial property and three tracts of vacant land in 2000. These properties
are included in the "Industrial" operating segment and reported net operating
income of $1.3 million for the year ended December 31, 1999 and $1.3 million for
the year ended December 31, 1998.

     During 1999, a joint venture, 50% owned by the Trust, sold a light
industrial property. The Trust's investment in the joint venture was
approximately $2.5 million. The Trust earned approximately $0.6 million from
this joint venture.

     During 1998, the Trust acquired 29 real estate properties for approximately
$237 million. To fund these acquisitions, the Trust paid approximately $37.8
million in cash, obtained $28.3 million and $42.7 million of financing under its
acquisition line of credit and secured bridge loan, respectively, assumed
approximately $32.7 million in mortgage debt with a fair value of $34.9 million,
obtained $47.2 million of financing through unsecured borrowings with DDR,
issued $0.9 million of limited partnership units and issued $47.7 million in
common shares to DDR. The difference between the assumed amount and the fair
value of the mortgage debt assumed was recorded as debt premium.

     At December 31, 1998, the Trust recorded a $10.1 million write down of its
retail property in Denver, Colorado and reclassified the property from held for
investment to held for sale. The Trust's intent was to sell this property in
1999, thereby allowing the Trust to continue its focus on the light industrial
sector of the real estate market. Although offers were received, none of the
offers were deemed acceptable and the property has

been reclassified back to held for investment as of December 31, 1999 to reflect
the Trust's intent to hold this property. The Trust recaptured depreciation
expense for the full year of 1999 for this property.

     The Trust did not sell any properties in 1998.

     The Trust has changed its capitalization policy with respect to internal
acquisition costs. On March 19, 1998, the Trust ceased the capitalization of
costs related to its internal acquisition department. The Trust capitalized
$160,000 of such costs through March 19, 1998.

NOTE 3 -- MORTGAGE NOTES PAYABLE:

     At December 31, 1999, 73 of the Trust's 74 properties were subject to liens
securing mortgage notes payable with principal balances totaling $334,873,000
including $1,463,000 of debt premiums (see Note 2). Of this amount,
approximately $263,792,000 was represented by mortgage notes with stated fixed
interest rates ranging from 7.18% to 9.13%, a stated weighted average interest
rate of 7.40%, and maturity dates in 2001 to 2016. Mortgage notes payable with
variable interest rates total approximately $69,619,000. The variable rate debt
consists of $50,119,000 under the Trust's PSCC secured acquisition credit line
as well as $19,500,000 under its Bank One secured line of credit. The
acquisition credit line bears interest at the 30 day LIBOR plus 1.55% and
matures in April 2000. The Trust is currently negotiating an extension of the
maturity date of the acquisition credit line. The Trust cannot provide any
assurance that such negotiations will result in the extension of the credit
line. The Bank One line of credit, which provides for a variable rate spread
based upon the company's overall debt leverage, currently bears interest at the
30 day LIBOR plus 2.00% and matures in January 2001. The interest rates on the
acquisition credit line and the line of credit at December 31, 1999 are 8.03%
and 8.47%, respectively.

     Debt premiums are amortized into interest expense over the terms of the
related mortgages using the effective interest method. As of December 31, 1999
and December 31, 1998, the unamortized debt premiums were $1,463,000 and
$1,958,000, respectively.

     Certain of the mortgage notes payable contain cross default and cross
collateralization provisions whereby a default under one note can trigger a
default under other notes. Certain of the mortgage notes payable, including the
acquisition credit line and line of credit, also contain various borrowing
restrictions and operating performance covenants. The Trust is in compliance
with all such restrictions and covenants as of December 31, 1999.

     Principal payments during each of the next five years are as follows:
$54,767,000 in 2000, $52,170,000 in 2001, $19,549,000 in 2002, $27,355,000 in
2003, $11,884,000 in 2004, and $167,685,000 thereafter. Of the amount due in
2000, $50,119,000 is due under the Trust's acquisition credit line. The Trust is
currently negotiating an extension of the maturity date of the acquisition
credit line. The Trust cannot provide any assurance that on-going negotiations
will result in the extension on this credit line.

     During 1999 the Trust recognized an extraordinary loss on extinguishment of
debt of $513,000 resulting from prepayment penalties and the write off of
deferred financing costs on the early retirement of $88 million of mortgage
debt.

     At December 31, 1998, 51 of the Trust's 65 properties were subject to liens
securing mortgage notes payable with principal balances totaling $252,481,000,
including $1,958,000 of debt premiums (see Note 2). Of this amount,
approximately $141,308,000 was represented by mortgage notes with stated fixed
interest rates ranging from 7.25% to 9.13%, a stated weighted average interest
rate of 8.01% and maturity dates in 2001 to 2016. Mortgage notes payable with
variable interest rates consisted of $68,523,000 and $42,650,000 under the
Trust's secured acquisition credit line and secured bridge loan, respectively.
The acquisition credit line and bridge loan bear interest at the 30 day LIBOR
plus 1.75% and mature in April, 1999 and January, 1999 as extended,
respectively. The interest rate on these loans at December 31, 1998 was 7.38%.

           NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)

     During 1998 the Trust recognized extraordinary loss on extinguishment of
debt of $23,000 resulting from prepayment penalties on the early retirement of
$1.2 million of mortgage debt.

NOTE 4 -- UNSECURED NOTES PAYABLE -- RELATED PARTY:

     In January 1999, the Trust repaid in full three unsecured loans from DDR
used to finance acquisitions. The Trust paid interest of $111,000 to DDR at the
time of repayment. The interest rate on these demand notes was 10.25%. At
December 31, 1998, the Trust had three unsecured notes outstanding totaling
$14,058,000. The Trust paid interest of $660,850 to DDR for the year ended
December 31, 1998.

NOTE 5 -- COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES:

  Environmental Matters

     The Trust has been notified of the existence of limited underground
petroleum based contamination at a portion of Tamarac Square, the Trust's
Colorado retail property. The source of the contamination is apparently related
to underground storage tanks ("USTs") located on an adjacent property. The owner
of the adjacent property has agreed to remediate the property to comply with
state standards and has indemnified the Trust against costs related to its
sampling activity. The responsible party for the adjacent USTs has submitted an
amended corrective Action Plan to the Colorado Department of Public Health and
Environment and awaits permission to upgrade its remediation system to address
the contamination.

     The Trust has been notified of the existence of limited cleaning solvents
("mineral spirits") contamination at Tech Center 29 Phase I. The contamination
is the apparent result of a service center operated on the property until 1996.
The tenant's primary operations consisted of the distribution of parts, cleaning
equipment and cleaning solvents to industrial customers. Two USTs used in the
operation were removed in 1996. The former tenant has been working with the
Maryland Department of the Environment since the onset and has issued a standby
letter of credit as financial assurance for remediation of the site. The
Maryland Department of the Environment is beneficiary under the standby letter
of credit.

     With the exception of Tamarac Square and Tech 29 Phase I, the Trust has not
been notified, and is not otherwise aware, of any material non-compliance,
liability or claim relating to hazardous or toxic substances in connection with
any of its properties.

  Litigation

     On August 20, 1997, the Trust was named as a defendant in a lawsuit related
to the January 1998 merger between the Trust and four real estate limited
partnerships. The lawsuit purported to be both a class action and a derivative
lawsuit against the defendants. The plaintiffs asserted various claims,
including breach of fiduciary duty and various securities law violations,
against the parties to the merger and certain individuals and were seeking
monetary damages. On February 3, 2000, the Court issued a summary judgment in
favor of the Trust dismissing this securities class action lawsuit. The Court,
in making its ruling, held that the plaintiffs failed to offer admissible
evidence to show they had been damaged. The deadline for the plaintiffs to file
their notice of appeal has passed. At this time, the Trust has not received any
indication that the plaintiffs have pursued an appeal. Although management
cannot predict the outcome of the possible appeal of such litigation, management
does not expect the liabilities, if any, that may ultimately result from such
legal actions to have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial
position or results of operations of the Trust.

     On April 13, 1998, the Trust was named as a defendant in an additional
purported class action lawsuit related to the Trust's merger with the four real
estate limited partnerships. The plaintiffs asserted various claims, including
breach of fiduciary and contractual duties and various securities law
violations, against the parties to the merger. In December 1999, the defendants
settled this lawsuit. The Trust's share of the settlement cost was approximately
$58,000.

           NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)

NOTE 6 -- MINORITY INTEREST:

     Operating Partnerships. AIP-SWAG Operating L.P. and AIP Operating, L.P.
have 179,085 and 29,166 limited partnership units outstanding, respectively, as
of December 31, 1999 (excluding limited partnership units held by the Trust).
Pursuant to the limited partnership agreement for each partnership, the limited
partners received rights (the "Redemption Rights") that enable them to cause the
partnership to redeem each limited partnership unit for cash equal to the value,
as determined in accordance with the partnership agreement, of a Share (or, at
the Trust's election, the Trust may purchase each limited partnership unit
offered for redemption for one Share). The Redemption Rights generally may be
exercised at any time after one year following the issuance of the limited
partnership units. The number of Shares issuable upon exercise of the Redemption
Rights will be adjusted for share splits, mergers, consolidations or similar pro
rata transactions, which would have the effect of diluting the ownership
interests of the limited partners or the shareholders of the Trust. The limited
partners' interest in each partnership is reflected as minority interest in the
accompanying consolidated financial statements. In December 1999, 29,167 AIP
Operating L.P. limited partnership units were redeemed for approximately
$330,000 resulting in an increase in Shareholders' equity of $63,000.

     AIP-SWAG Operating L.P. and AIP Operating, L.P. had 179,085 and 58,333
limited partnership units outstanding, respectively, as of December 31, 1998.

     Other Partnerships. In connection with the merger of four real estate
limited partnerships, effective December 31, 1997, the Trust acquired a 55.84%
interest in Chelmsford Associates LLC, formerly Chelmsford Associates Joint
Venture, a joint venture owning one office property. The remaining 44.16%
interest is owned by a significant shareholder of the Trust. The financial
position and results of operations of the joint venture is included in the
consolidated financial statements of the Trust. The other venturer's interest in
the partnership is reflected as minority interest in the accompanying
consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 7 -- SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY:

     Capital Stock. The Trust is authorized to issue up to 500,000,000 Shares.
The Shares have dividend, distribution, liquidation and other rights as
disclosed in the Declaration of the Trust. As of December 31, 1999, 20,926,098
shares are issued and outstanding.

     The Trust is authorized to issue up to 50,000,000 Preferred Shares of
Beneficial Interest in one or more series. The number of shares in each series
and the designation, powers, preferences and rights of each such series and the
qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof have not been established.
As of December 31, 1999, no Preferred Shares of Beneficial Interest were issued.

     The 1998 Share repurchase program resulted in the Trust purchasing 123,783
Shares in the open market, for an aggregate cost of $1,598,000. These Shares are
held in Treasury. As of December 31, 1999, the Trust has a total of 165,755
Shares held in Treasury.

     Private Placement. On August 3, 1998, the Trust entered into a definitive
agreement providing for a strategic investment by DDR in the Trust. Under the
terms of the Agreement, the transaction has three stages. The first stage of
equity investment, effective as of July 30, 1998, resulted in DDR acquiring
2,207,618 common shares at a price of $15.50 per share in exchange for
consideration valued at approximately $34.2 million. As of December 31, 1998,
the Trust had issued an additional 3,683,584 common shares related to the second
stage of the Agreement at a price of $15.50 per share to fund property
acquisitions. The common shares issued in the first and second stages are of the
same class as the Trust's existing common shares and are entitled to the same
voting and distribution rights as all common shares, subject to certain
restrictions on the resale of the common shares. The remainder of the second
stage, 1,543,005 common shares at $15.50 per share, and the entire third stage,
which provided for a potential $200 million of equity investment, had not
occurred as of December 31, 1998.

<PAGE>   57
                      AMERICAN INDUSTRIAL PROPERTIES REIT

           NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)

     During the twelve months ended December 31, 1999, the Trust issued
3,765,454 common shares to DDR in connection with the purchase of 11 properties
(see Note 2), 113,836 common shares were issued in connection with the Dividend
Reinvestment Plan and 11,103 common shares were issued to Trust Managers that
elected to receive base fee compensation in common shares. In total the Trust
issued 3,890,393 common shares 1999. In accordance with the Agreement, the
Shares issued to DDR in 1999 were at an average price of $15.22 per share.

     Share Incentive Plans. The Trust adopted the Employee and Trust Managers
Incentive Share Plan (the "Plan") for the purpose of (i) attracting and
retaining employees, directors and others, (ii) providing incentives to those
deemed important to the success of the Trust, and (iii) associating the
interests of these individuals with the interests of the Trust and its
shareholders through opportunities for increased share ownership. All awards
under the Plan are determined by the Compensation Committee of the Board of
Trust Managers. A maximum limit of 10% of the total number of Shares outstanding
at any time on a fully-diluted basis may be issued under the Plan.

     Under the terms of the Plan, any person who is a full-time employee or a
Trust Manager of the Trust or of an affiliate (as defined in the Plan) of the
Trust or a person designated by the Compensation Committee as eligible because
such person performs bona fide consulting or advisory services for the Trust or
an affiliate of the Trust (other than services in connection with the offer or
sale of securities in a capital-raising transaction) and has a direct and
significant effect on the financial development of the Trust or an affiliate of
the Trust, shall be eligible to receive awards under the Plan.

     Share Option Awards. In connection with the Agreement with DDR, on July 29,
1998, the Trust granted share options to purchase 100,000 Shares to the Chairman
of the Board of Trust Managers, who, in accordance with DDR's request,
transferred the options to his employer, DDR. The exercise price of the options
was $12.625 (the market price of the Trust's Shares on the date of the grant)
and the fair value of the options was $221,000. The options vested on November
20, 1998.

     On an annual basis, each non-employee Trust Manager shall receive a
non-qualified share option to purchase 1,000 common shares. Each of these
non-employee Trust Manager options is fully exercisable upon the date of grant
and generally terminates (unless sooner terminated under the terms of the Plan)
ten years after the date of grant. The exercise price is determined by the
Compensation Committee and must have an exercise price equal to not less than
100% of the fair market value of a Share on the date of grant. During 1999, 1998
and 1997, 10,000, 10,000 and 7,000 common shares were granted, respectively.

     During 1998, pursuant to the plan, the Trust Managers granted share options
to purchase 460,000 common shares to 12 members of management. The exercise
price of the options granted is $13.625. In addition, the Board approved the
award of 27,000 restricted shares to the Trust's senior officers. The restricted
shares vest annually beginning on the first anniversary date of the date of
grant.

     In 1999, 10,000 share options were granted to a new member of management
and 10,000 share options, originally issued in 1998, were canceled due to
employee terminations. All options vest annually over a five year period,
beginning on the date of grant.

     Pursuant to agreements between the Trust and four senior officers, a
"change in control" occurred on December 10, 1998 when DDR's ownership position
exceeded 33% of the Trust's voting shares. As a result, all options held by
these officers became fully vested and the restrictions on 27,000 restricted
shares held by these officers were lifted. A total of 395,000 previously
unvested options became vested on this date.

     The Trust has elected to follow Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25,
Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees ("APB 25") and related Interpretations
in accounting for its employee share options because, as discussed below, the
alternative fair value accounting provided for under Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation
("Statement 123") requires use of

           NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)

option valuation models that were not developed for use in valuing employee
share options. Under APB 25, because the exercise price of the Trust's employee
share options equals the market price of the underlying Shares on the date of
grant, no compensation expense is recognized.

     At December 31, 1999, 726,000 options are outstanding of which 688,000 are
fully vested. The remaining 38,000 options vest annually through February 2003.
The term of these options range from June 2007 through December 2009.

     Pro forma information regarding net income and earnings per share is
required by Statement 123. The fair value for these options was estimated at the
date of grant using a Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following
weighted-average assumptions for 1999: risk-free interest rates of 4.80% to
6.52%; a dividend yield of 4.96% to 7.50%; volatility factors of the expected
market price of the Trust's Shares of .288; and a weighted-average expected life
of the options of 7 years.

     The fair value for these options was estimated at the date of grant using a
Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted-average
assumptions for 1998: risk-free interest rates of 4.80% to 6.50%; a dividend
yield of 4.96% to 5.50%; volatility factors of the expected market price of the
Trust's Shares of .275 to .283; and a weighted-average expected life of the
options of 7 years.

     The Black-Scholes option valuation model was developed for use in
estimating the fair value of traded options which have no vesting restrictions
and are fully transferable. In addition, option valuation models require the
input of highly subjective assumptions including the expected stock price
volatility. Because the Trust's employee share options have characteristics
significantly different from those of traded options, and because changes in the
subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate, in
management's opinion, the existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable
single measure of the fair value of its employee share options.

     For purposes of pro forma disclosures, the estimated fair value of the
options is amortized to expense over the options' vesting period. The Trust's
pro forma information follows (in thousands except for earnings per Share
information):

NOTE 10 -- TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES:

     During 1998, the Trust on occasion entered into unsecured borrowings with
DDR. Such borrowings bear a fixed rate of interest of 10.25%, provide for
quarterly payments of interest and were due thirty days after

                                      F-16

           NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)

demand. The Trust repaid all such borrowings, including payment of $111,000 of
interest in the first quarter of 1999. The total interest on such borrowing was
$661,000 for 1998. The Trust did not enter into any such borrowings in 1999.

     Certain real estate investments are managed by Quorum, an affiliate of
Realco, and DDR, major shareholders of the Trust. Quorum and DDR are paid
competitive rates for services, including, but not limited to, construction,
tenant finish, leasing and management. The Trust paid Quorum management fees of
$709,000, leasing commissions of $712,000, brokerage fees of $92,000, and
construction management fees of $66,000, for the year ended December 31, 1999.
For the year ended December 31, 1998, management fees and leasing commissions
paid by the Trust to Quorum were $548,000 and $24,000, respectively. The Trust
paid DDR management fees of $17,900 for the year ended December 31, 1999 and
$19,000 for the year ended December 31, 1998.

     Effective October 8, 1998, DDR acquired an 89% limited partnership interest
and a 1% general partnership interest in DDR/Tech 29 Limited Partnership, a
limited partnership whose assets consist of two light industrial properties and
one office property totaling 290,991 nrsf located in Silver Springs, Maryland.
Several selling entities and affiliates thereof acquired the remaining
partnership interests. These partnership interests are convertible into DDR
common shares. As of November 20, 1998, the Trust acquired 88.5% of DDR's
limited partnership interest and, in consideration therefore, issued
approximately $16.1 million in Shares to DDR. The acquisition was deemed to be
effective as of October 8, 1998 and the purchase price included interest accrued
from such date.

     On November 20, 1998, the Trust purchased undeveloped land from DDR in the
amount of $2.3 million plus interest. The purchase was accomplished through the
issuance of Shares to DDR in accordance with the Share Purchase Agreement dated
July 30, 1998. This land was then contributed by the Trust to a joint venture
with a third party.

     The Trust currently leases space to an individual serving as a Trust
Manager at competitive market rates. For the years ended December 31, 1999 and
December 31, 1998, this Trust Manager paid $24,400 and $9,800 in lease payments
to the Trust, respectively.

     At December 31, 1999, DDR and Realco owned approximately 46.1% and 8.0% of
the common shares outstanding, respectively.

NOTE 11 -- RETIREMENT AND PROFIT SHARING PLAN:

     During 1993, the Trust adopted a retirement and profit sharing plan which
qualifies under section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code. All existing Trust
employees at adoption and subsequent employees who have completed one month of
service are eligible to participate in the plan. Subject to certain limitations,
employees may contribute up to 15% of their salary. The Trust may make annual
discretionary contributions to the plan. In 1999, the Trust amended the plan to
provide for non-discretionary employer matching contributions. Subject to
certain limitations, the Trust will match up to 50% of the first 6% contributed
by an employee. Discretionary contributions by the Trust related to the years
ended December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997 were $43,000, $70,000 and $40,000,
respectively. Non-discretionary employer matching contributions in 1999 were
approximately $71,000.

NOTE 12 -- CHANGE IN CONTROL COSTS:

     During 1998, the Trust recognized costs related to a change in control of
$5,780,000. The costs related to change in control include approximately
$2,484,000 for payments made to the Trust's senior officers pursuant to
severance and change in control agreements which were triggered when DDR's
ownership position exceeded 33%, an accrual of $2,960,000 related to the
estimated fair market value of future payments through 2008 to the senior
officers under previously granted dividend equivalent rights, approximately
$300,000 related

to vesting of restricted shares previously granted to the senior officers and
$36,000 in payroll taxes associated with the payments to the senior officers.

     The Trust amortizes the accrual for dividend equivalent rights as dividends
are paid by the Trust. As of December 31, 1999 the unamortized accrual is
$2,612,800.

     Options to purchase 726,000 common shares at prices ranging from $11.125 to
$15.00 per Share were outstanding at December 31, 1999. During 1999, 20,000
share options were granted (10,000 to a new member of management, and 10,000 to
Trust Managers) and 10,000 share options, originally issued in 1998, were
canceled due to employee terminations.

     Options to purchase 716,000 Shares at prices ranging from $11.6875 to
$15.00 per Share were outstanding at December 31, 1998 and options to purchase
139,000 Shares at prices ranging from $13.625 to $15.00 were outstanding at
December 31, 1997.

     Options were not included in a computation of diluted earnings per share
for 1999, 1998 and 1997 because the options' exercise price was greater than the
average market price of the Shares for the respective years and, therefore, the
effect would be antidilutive.

     At December 31, 1999, 40,000 warrants were outstanding. The warrants have
an exercise price of $17.50 per common share and expire in October 2000. Because
the warrants' exercise price was greater than the average market price of the
common shares, the effect would be antidilutive and are not included in the
computation of diluted earnings per share.

NOTE 14 -- FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

     Accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses and other
liabilities are carried at amounts that reasonably approximate their fair
values. The fair values of the Trust's mortgage notes payable are estimated
using discounted cash flow analyses, based on the Trust's incremental borrowing
rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements. The carrying values of such
mortgage notes payable reasonably approximate their fair values.

NOTE 15 -- SEGMENT REPORTING

     The Trust classifies its reportable segments by property type: light
industrial, office, and retail. Light industrial represents 61% of property
revenue. Office and retail represent 35% and 4%, respectively.

     The Trust's emphasis is in the light industrial sector, which is
characterized as office showroom, service center and flex properties, low rise
offices, and small bay distribution properties. Based on net rentable square
feet, as of December 31, 1999, approximately 72% of the Trust's portfolio is
represented by light industrial properties, 25% of the portfolio is represented
by office properties and 3% of the portfolio is represented by retail
properties.

     The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in
the summary of significant accounting policies. Senior management evaluates
performance based on net operating income from the combined properties in each
segment.

     The Trust's reportable segments are a consolidation of related properties
which offer different products. They are managed separately because each segment
requires different operating, pricing and leasing strategies. All of the
properties have been acquired separately and are incorporated into the
applicable segment.
