PART I
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
GENERAL
Burnham Pacific Properties, Inc. (the "Company") is a fully-integrated,
self-managed real estate operating company which acquires, rehabilitates,
develops and manages retail properties on the West Coast. The Company was
incorporated in 1986 as the successor to a publicly-traded real estate limited
partnership which was organized in San Diego in 1963. The Company has elected to
qualify as a real estate investment trust ("REIT") for federal income tax
purposes. The Company's executive offices are located at 610 West Ash Street,
Suite 1600, San Diego, California 92112 and its telephone number is (619)
652-4700.
At December 31, 1996, the Company owned interests in 21 retail shopping
centers, all located in California, 16 of which were fully operational, one of
which was operating but undergoing renovation and expansion, and four of which
were in various stages of development. As of December 31, 1996, the Company also
owned four completed and operating office/industrial properties located in
Southern California, which are considered non-strategic.
In late 1995, the Company began an extensive reorganization designed to
concentrate its future efforts on retail properties. In October 1995, the
Company succeeded to the shopping center operations of The Martin Group of
Companies, Inc., a San Francisco based real estate development company ("The
Martin Group"). As part of the transaction (the "Martin Transactions"), the
Company appointed J. David Martin as its President and Chief
2
<PAGE> 3
Executive Officer and a member of its Board of Directors and acquired a
supermarket and drug store anchored community shopping center and interests in
certain retail development projects that Mr. Martin had begun (the "Martin
Projects"). The Company simultaneously appointed Daniel B. Platt, formerly Group
Executive Vice President of the Real Estate Industries Group of Bank of America,
as its Chief Financial Officer and Chief Administrative Officer, and James M.
Kessler, formerly Executive Vice President of The Martin Group with overall
responsibility for that company's retail developments. Concurrently with these
appointments, the Company acquired the Martin Projects from affiliates of The
Martin Group. (see - "Properties - Development Properties").
Immediately following its appointment on October 1, 1995, the Company's new
management initiated a thorough review of the Company's properties, markets,
growth prospects, and property management and financial practices. It also
sponsored reviews of the Company's legal and accounting policies by its counsel
and auditors, respectively. As a result of these reviews, new management
developed a business plan for repositioning the Company which was approved by
its Board of Directors in November 1995.
The principal features of the business plan and steps taken in late 1995
and during 1996 to implement the plan include the following.
Increased Financial Flexibility. In November 1995, the Company's Board of
Directors determined that it should establish a more conservative dividend
payout ratio and reduce its dividend. Accordingly, the Board reduced the
previous $.36 per share quarterly distribution to $.25 per share in the fourth
quarter of 1995, and has maintained the $.25 per share quarterly dividend rate
since that time. See Item 5, "Market for Registrant's Common Equity and Related
Stockholder Matters."
In addition, the Company took a number of one-time charges in the fourth
quarter of 1995, including a $21,373,000 non-cash charge to write down the
non-strategic assets which it decided to dispose of to their fair market value,
$1,047,000 to write down goodwill, outdated computer equipment and a
discontinued investment in a real estate advisor, and a $2,500,000 charge that
included a non-cash reduction in revenues of $1,278,000 primarily as a result of
a change in the formula used to estimate common area maintenance reimbursements
and percentage rents; and $975,000 in one-time general and administrative
expenses related to the Martin Transaction and the Company's repositioning. See
Item 7, "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations - Results of Operations."
The Company also adopted a variety of financial strategies to allow it to
accomplish its repositioning and lessen its reliance upon the public markets as
a source of additional capital. These strategies include maintaining a
conservative distribution payout ratio, redeployment of sales proceeds generated
through property dispositions, use of joint ventures to help finance new
acquisitions and developments and paying for acquisitions with Common Stock or
securities (such as limited partnership units) which are convertible into or
exchangeable for Common Stock.
In November 1996, the Company entered into a $135,000,000 credit facility
with Nomura Asset Capital Corporation (the "Credit Facility") that replaced a
$50,000,000 credit facility with Bank of America. Of the total amount of the
Credit Facility, $90,000,000 is secured and $45,000,000 is unsecured. The
Company utilized a portion of the Credit Facility
3
<PAGE> 4
to redeem the remaining $25,700,000 outstanding 8-1/2% Convertible Debentures
due 2002 in November 1996. See Item 7, "Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Liquidity and Capital
Resources."
Added Personnel and Capabilities. At the end of 1995, the Company
internalized the management of its portfolio, eliminating dependence upon
third-party property managers. Additionally, the Company has invested in a new
property management information system that allows for more accurate control of
property-level operating expenses and calculation of expenses reimbursable by
tenants. In 1996 the Company appointed a director of leasing in San Diego.
In anticipation of significant changes in and additions to its portfolio,
the Company also created a new acquisition and disposition group. In addition,
the Company added an experienced rehabilitation and development group as a
result of the Martin Transactions with expertise in development and
construction, including site selection, tenant marketing and leasing, land use
entitlements, design, and construction contract administration. As a result of
these changes, the Company is now a fully-integrated real estate operating
company.
The Company also expanded its operations in the Los Angeles area with the
purchase of Ladera Center in downtown Los Angeles in July 1996 and Margarita
Plaza in Huntington Park in December 1996. See "Properties Completed Operating
Properties." Each of these latter two acquisitions was made in contemplation
that the Company's original 100% ownership interest in the Properties would be
reduced to 25% upon the subsequent funding of the remaining 75% interest by an
institutional investor. See "Risk Factors Investments in Joint Ventures."
Disposed of Non-Strategic Assets. The Company identified and in November
1995 wrote down to their then estimated fair market value five of its
non-strategic properties. All of these properties, which included the McDonnell
Douglas, Fireman's Fund and Highland Plaza buildings, the Miramar Business
Center and an interest in the office building in which the Company's corporate
office is located, were sold in 1996. The net sales proceeds of $40.9 million
were used to pay down borrowings under the Company's previous lines of credit.
Enhanced Property Focus. The Company concluded that it should focus
exclusively on acquiring, rehabilitating, developing and managing anchored
retail properties. Reasons for this focus include the Company's belief that
there exists favorable pricing of these properties relative to certain other
types of real estate assets, its belief that an imbalance exists between the
number of these properties that could benefit from rehabilitation and the number
of property owners who could successfully complete such rehabilitation, and the
operational advantages of focusing management efforts on a single asset type.
The Company also decided to diversify its holdings geographically within
California. The acquisition and development of the interests in the properties
acquired in the Martin Transactions gave the Company a significant presence in
the San Francisco Bay Area. The Company has expanded its activities in that area
as well as in the Los Angeles area.
Development and Acquisition Activities. During 1996, the Company engaged in
substantial development activities with respect to various of the Martin
Projects in the San Francisco area. It substantially completed construction of
Phase I of Hilltop Plaza in Richmond. The Company's Board of Directors approved,
and construction started in
4
<PAGE> 5
September on, the development of the entertainment complex to be located in the
landmark 1000 Van Ness Building in downtown San Francisco. The Board of
Directors also approved the Company's acquisition, upon completion of
construction, of the Gateway Retail Center in Marin City; and in early 1997 the
Board approved, subject to satisfaction of various conditions, the commencement
of construction of the retail portion of the Downtown Pleasant Hill project. See
"Properties Development Properties."
Throughout 1996, the Company engaged in discussions concerning other
acquisitions of retail properties that might be consistent with its business
plan. Some of these discussions have resulted in additional acquisitions
subsequent to year end. See Note 18 "Subsequent Events" to the accompanying
Financial Statements. As a part of its ongoing business, the Company regularly
engages in discussion with public and private real estate entities regarding
possible portfolio or asset acquisitions or business combinations.
EMPLOYEES
At December 31, 1996, the Company had 41 employees, located primarily in
its executive office in San Diego and in its regional offices in San Francisco
and Los Angeles. Subsequent to December 31, 1996, in a further move to diversity
its geographical focus, the Company opened an office in Portland, Oregon and
appointed a new Executive Vice President in charge of operations in the Pacific
Northwest.
PROPERTIES
The Company has targeted three types of retail properties: supermarket
and/or drugstore-anchored community centers ("Market/Drug Centers"), promotional
centers and, to a lesser extent, entertainment centers.
The majority of the Company's properties are Market/Drug Centers, which the
Company defines as those centers that serve a fairly localized trade area and
that offer an assortment of goods and services such as groceries, drugs, video
rental, pet supplies and other goods and services designed to meet the
day-to-day needs of the average shopper. Because many supermarket chains have
continued to increase the average size of their stores, these centers also lend
themselves to the Company's experience in rehabilitating shopping centers.
Promotional centers have multiple retailers as anchor tenants which
typically offer convenience, a broad selection and low pricing on a fairly
discreet category of retail merchandise, and limited amounts of non-anchor
space. In acquiring promotional centers, the Company tends to avoid those
centers anchored by "big box" tenants such as discount department stores and
general merchandise retailers.
The Company defines entertainment centers as those centers whose principal
draw is one or more entertainment-related anchor tenants, typically a
multiscreen cinema. The Company finds these properties attractive because of
consumer interest in other kinds of entertainment venues, such as theme
restaurants. In addition, the Company looks for promotional and community
centers with an entertainment component, since the entertainment component
typically brings additional traffic to the center during the evenings, extending
the center's hours of operations.

<PAGE> 6
Retail Properties - At December 31, 1996, the operating retail properties
consisted of 11 Market/Drug Centers, 1 promotional center, 3 convenience
centers, and 2 factory outlet centers which contained in the aggregate
approximately 2,350,000 million square feet of gross leasable area ("GLA").
These Properties ranged in size from approximately 36,000 square feet to
approximately 517,000 square feet. The majority of these Properties are located
in Southern California, including 11 in San Diego county, 3 in Los Angeles
county, and 1 in Orange county. The 2 remaining Properties are located in
Northern California.
Fifteen of these operating retail Properties are owned by the Company in
fee, and 2 are held by the Company under long-term ground leases expiring in
2032 and 2035. The Company leased these properties to approximately 407
different tenants and overall occupancy at year-end 1996 was approximately 91%.
No single tenant accounted for as much as 10% of the Company's revenues for
1996.
Office/Industrial Properties - At December 31, 1996, the Company also owned 4
office properties located in Southern California, which are considered
non-strategic. These Properties ranged in size from approximately 29,000 square
feet, to approximately 338,000 square feet and aggregated approximately 591,000
square feet of GLA. At December 31, 1996, three of the buildings totaling
approximately 253,000 square feet were 100% leased and the fourth was 50%
leased, for an overall occupancy of 72%.
Development Properties - The Company also held interests in four development
properties as follows:
Hilltop Plaza, Richmond. The Company has recently completed the first phase
("Phase I") of its Hilltop Plaza development project located adjacent to
Interstate 80 in the City of Richmond, in the San Francisco Bay area. Hilltop
Plaza is a promotional center of approximately 250,000 square feet, anchored by
Circuit City, Barnes & Noble, Ross, PetsMart and Office Max. Phase I contains
181,066 square feet of GLA, including all of the anchor tenants, and 19,793
square feet of additional retail space. The second phase ("Phase II") will
contain an additional 53,000 square foot multiscreen movie theater and four
freestanding retail buildings. The project has an estimated total cost for both
Phase I and Phase II of $35.4 million. The Company expects to complete Phase II
in the second quarter of 1998.
1000 Van Ness, San Francisco. In September 1996, the Company began the
redevelopment of the landmark 1000 Van Ness Building and adjacent new
construction in the city block bounded by Van Ness Avenue (Route 101),
O'Farrell, Polk and Myrtle Streets in downtown San Francisco. At completion, the
approximately 209,000 square foot mixed-use facility will contain approximately
131,500 square foot entertainment component anchored by AMC Theaters and owned
by the Company and a residential component owned by a residential developer.
Total project cost after the sale of a portion of the building to the
residential developer is estimated to be $53 million. Completion is currently
scheduled for the second quarter of 1998.
Gateway Retail Center, Marin City. The Company has agreed to acquire
Gateway Retail Center, a substantially completed 185,949 square foot Market/Drug
center anchored by FoodsCo, Longs Drugs, Ross, and PetsMart. The property is
located in Southern Marin County, California on Interstate 101, the main
north-south highway through Marin County.
6
<PAGE> 7
The project has an estimated total cost of $22.0 million. One building
containing 11,000 square feet remains to be constructed, which the Company
expects will occur by the third quarter of 1997.
Downtown Pleasant Hill, Pleasant Hill. The Company also has development
rights to purchase various parcels of land and construct a promotional and
entertainment center containing approximately 360,000 square feet of gross
leasable area as part of the City of Pleasant Hill's Downtown Pleasant Hill
project. The project is located on Highway 680 in Contra Costa County, east of
San Francisco. The Company estimates the total investment required to develop
this project after the sale of various land parcels to other developers for
residential development to be approximately $60 million. The Company anticipates
that the project will be completed during 1999. There can be no assurance that
the purchase of these land parcels will proceed, or that the developments will
be successful.

THE PLAZA AT PUENTE HILLS represented 15.43% of the Company's total assets
at December 31, 1996 and 17.43% of the Company's total 1996 revenues. As of
December 31, 1996, annual base rentals ranged from $7.20 to $42.96 per square
foot. At December 31, 1996, one tenant, IKEA Furniture, occupied more than 10%
of the rentable square footage (150,000 square feet) at a base rental as of
December 31, 1996 of $1.1 million per annum, for a term ending in 2007, with
four five-year renewal options. The 1996 property tax rate was 1.87% resulting
in a tax of approximately $1,359,000 (including special assessments),
substantially all of which is reimbursed by tenants under their leases.
Management believes that the Property is adequately covered by insurance.
During the period 1993 to 1996 this Property has experienced the following

RISK FACTORS
This report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of
Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act. Actual
events, developments and results could differ materially from those anticipated
or projected in the forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors
listed below and elsewhere in this document. However, because the Company
operates in a rapidly changing environment, there can be no assurance that the
following factors include all material risks to the Company at any given time.
See "Forward-Looking Statements" at the beginning of this report.
Distributions to Shareholders
As a California corporation, the Company is subject to the California
General Corporation Law (the "CGCL"). Under the CGCL, a corporation may only
make a distribution to shareholders if (i) its retained earnings immediately
prior to payment of the distribution are at least equal to the amount of the
distribution, or (ii) generally, its total assets (determined on the basis of
their depreciated historical cost in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles ("GAAP") and exclusive of certain intangible assets and
certain other charges and expenses) are equal to at least 1-1/4 times its total
liabilities (excluding certain deferred items) immediately after giving effect
to the distribution. The CGCL also prohibits a California corporation from
making any distribution to shareholders if the corporation is or, as a result
thereof, would be likely to be unable to meet its liabilities as they mature.
The CGCL also imposes certain further limitations on distributions on common
stock if capital stock with a preference on distributions of assets upon
liquidation or payment of dividends is outstanding.
The Company has historically paid quarterly cash dividends since its
incorporation in 1986. Like most REITs whose assets consist of real property,
the Company's distributions have reflected the amount of cash available for
distribution from Property operations or from "Funds from Operations" rather
than from "retained earnings." "Funds from Operations," as currently defined by
the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, represents net income
(computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains (or losses) from debt
restructuring and sales of property, plus depreciation and amortization of real
estate assets, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint
ventures. Non-cash charges for depreciation reduce net income and consequently
retained earnings, but not Funds from Operations or cash available for
distribution.
The Company's quarterly distributions over the past 10 years have exceeded
its GAAP net income over the period and resulted in negative "retained earnings"
on the Company's balance sheet, with the result that the Company's legal ability
under the CGCL to make distributions depends upon the book value of its assets
exceeding 1-1/4 times its liabilities. Such "book value" is also determined in
accordance with GAAP, which means that such book value cannot exceed the
historic acquisition cost of the Company's Properties less charges for
depreciation and certain deductions related to writedowns for impairment. As a
result, the book value of Properties will typically decline over time and, in
any event, does not purport to reflect the actual fair market value of the
assets at the time that distributions to shareholders are made. Accordingly,
there can be no assurance that the Company will continue to be able to satisfy
the CGCL requirements with respect to the payment of distributions to
shareholders. A failure to satisfy these provisions would require a reduction in
or cessation of distributions to
14
<PAGE> 15
shareholders, which could prevent the Company from satisfying the distribution
requirements under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code")
necessary to maintain its REIT status, either of which would likely have a
material adverse effect on the Company and on its ability to make distributions
to shareholders. Consequently, the Board of Directors of the Company is
proposing to reincorporate the Company in Maryland.
General Real Estate Investment Risks
Real property investments are subject to a variety of risks. The yields
available from equity investments in real estate depend on the amount of income
generated and expenses incurred. If the Properties do not generate sufficient
income to meet operating expenses, including debt service and capital
expenditures, the Company's results of operations and ability to make
distributions to its shareholders will be adversely affected. The performance of
the economy in each of the areas in which the Company's Properties are located
affects occupancy, market rental and vacancy rates and expenses, and,
consequently, has an impact on the revenues from the Properties and their
underlying values. The financial results of major local employers may have an
impact on the revenues and value of certain of the Properties.
Revenues from the Company's Properties may be further adversely affected
by, among other things, the general economic climate, local economic conditions
in which the Properties are located, such as oversupply of space or a reduction
in demand for rental space, the attractiveness of the Properties to tenants,
competition from other available space, the ability of the Company to provide
for adequate maintenance and insurance and increased operating expenses
(including real estate taxes and utilities) which may not be passed through to
tenants; and the expense of periodically renovating, repairing and re-leasing
space. There is also the risk that as leases on the Properties expire, tenants
will enter into new leases on terms that are less favorable to the Company.
Revenues and real estate values may also be adversely affected by such factors
as applicable laws (e.g., the Americans With Disabilities Act of 1990 and tax
laws), interest rate levels and the availability and terms of financing. In
addition, real estate investments are relatively illiquid and, therefore, will
tend to limit the ability of the Company to vary its portfolio promptly in
response to changes in economic or other conditions.
Most of the leases of the Company's retail Properties, as is common with
many multi-tenant shopping centers, provide for tenants to reimburse the Company
for a portion (frequently based upon the portion of total retail space in the
Property that is occupied by the tenant) of the common area maintenance, real
estate taxes, insurance and other operating expenses of the Property. To the
extent that a Property has vacant rentable space, not only will the Company be
deprived of the base rent that it would receive if the vacant space were
occupied, but the Company itself will have to bear the unreimbursed expense
applicable to such vacant space. Likewise, such expenses are generally not
reduced when circumstances cause a reduction in rental revenues from the
Property. If a Property is mortgaged to secure the payment of indebtedness and
if the Company is unable to meet its mortgage payments, a loss could be
sustained as a result of foreclosure on the Property or the exercise of other
remedies by the mortgagee. Likewise, if a Property suffers sustained reductions
in revenues, the Company may sustain a writedown of the asset value and a
related charge to earnings.
15
<PAGE> 16
Investment in Single Industry
The Company's current strategy is to acquire interests only in retail
shopping centers and related properties. As a result, the Company will be
subject to risks inherent in investments in a single industry. The effects on
cash available for distribution to the Company's shareholders resulting from a
downturn in the retail industry might be more pronounced than if the Company's
portfolio were more diversified as to property types.
Among the risks that the Company as an owner of Properties leased primarily
to retail tenants may face are the volatile nature of the retail business and
changes in consumer preferences, which may result in tenant failures or changes
in the physical requirements of retailers that the Company may be required to
accommodate in order to retain or attract tenants. Retail chains may overexpand
in the same general market area, thereby creating competition with their own
stores that may be in one or more of the Company's Properties. Because many
anchor tenants frequently have negotiating power to demand the exclusive or sole
right to sell certain types of products in a shopping center, the existence of
such rights may adversely limit the Company's ability to lease space in the
center to retailers of potentially competing products. The foregoing and similar
factors may affect the revenues, and resulting value, of the Company's
Properties.
Bankruptcy and Financial Condition of Tenants
At any time, a tenant of the Properties may seek the protection of the
bankruptcy laws, which could result in the rejection and termination of such
tenant's lease and thereby adversely affect the Company's results of operations
and ability to make distributions to its shareholders. Although the Company has
not experienced material losses from tenant bankruptcies, no assurance can be
given that tenants will not file for bankruptcy protection in the future, or if
any tenants file, that they will affirm their leases and continue to make rental
payments in a timely manner. In addition, a tenant from time to time may
experience a downturn in its business which may weaken its financial condition
and result in the failure to make rental payments when due. If tenant leases are
not affirmed following bankruptcy or if a tenant's financial condition weakens,
the Company's results of operations and ability to make distributions to its
shareholders may be adversely affected.
Geographic Concentration
The Company's Properties are all located within the State of California,
and within such state primarily in the San Diego County, greater Los Angeles and
San Francisco Bay areas. This concentration of Properties subjects the Company
to the strengths or weaknesses of the California economy and the aforementioned
local economies in a number of ways. The performance of the economy in each
locality affects occupancy, market rental rates and expenses and, consequently,
has an impact on the revenues from the Company's Properties and their underlying
values. The financial results of major local employers may have an impact on the
revenues and value of certain of the Properties. A downturn in the economy of
California in general or of any of these local economies could adversely affect
the Company's results of operations and ability to make distributions to its
shareholders. In that regard, certain areas of California (particularly the
greater Los Angeles area) have in the past been adversely affected by reductions
in defense spending, and certain other areas of California (particularly the San
16
<PAGE> 17
Francisco Bay area) may be substantially influenced by conditions in the high
technology industries. Additionally, certain areas in California have been and
remain subject to various natural disasters, including earthquakes and floods.
Competition
Numerous retail properties compete with the Company's Properties in
attracting tenants to lease space. Some of these competing properties are newer
and better located or designed and may offer lower expenses or be better
capitalized than the Company's Properties. The number of competitive commercial
properties in a particular area could have a material adverse effect on the
Company's ability to lease space in its Properties or at newly developed or
acquired properties and on the rents charged.
Additionally, the Company may be competing for investment opportunities
with entities which have substantially greater financial resources than the
Company. These entities may generally be able to accept more risk than the
Company can prudently manage. Competition may generally reduce the number of
suitable investment opportunities offered to the Company and increase the
bargaining power of property owners seeking to sell.
Acquisition and Development Activities
The Company intends to acquire existing retail commercial properties to the
extent that they can be acquired on acceptable terms and meet the Company's
investment criteria, including the availability of suitable financing.
Acquisitions of retail commercial properties entail general investment risks
associated with any real estate investment, including the risk that investments
will fail to perform as expected or that estimates of the cost of improvements
to bring an acquired property up to standards established for the intended
market position may prove inaccurate.
The Company is pursuing certain commercial property development projects
and expects to develop other projects. As a general matter, property development
projects typically carry a higher, and sometimes substantially higher, level of
risk than the acquisition of existing properties. For example, development
projects generally require various governmental and other approvals, the receipt
of which cannot be assured. Approvals frequently require undertakings for public
infrastructure improvements or other activities to mitigate the effects of the
proposed development, whose costs also cannot be assured. The Company's
development activities will entail a variety of other risks, including the risk
that funds will be expended and management time will be devoted to projects
which may not come to fruition; the risk that a project will not be developed by
the scheduled completion date; the risk that construction costs of a project may
exceed original estimates, possibly making the project economically unfavorable
to operate or requiring a writedown of the carrying amount of the project; the
risk that occupancy rates and rents at a completed project will be less than
anticipated; and the risk that expenses at a completed development will be
higher than anticipated. These risks may adversely affect the Company's results
of operations and ability to make distributions to its shareholders.
The integration of certain acquisition and development properties into the
systems and procedures of the Company presents a management challenge, and the
failure to integrate such properties into the Company's operating structures
could have a material adverse effect on the
17
<PAGE> 18
Company's results of operations and ability to make distributions to its
shareholders.
Consequences of Failure to Qualify as a REIT
The Company has elected to qualify as a REIT under the Code. Although the
Company believes that it has operated in a manner which satisfies the REIT
qualification requirements since 1987, no assurance can be given that the
Company's qualification as a REIT will not be challenged by the Internal Revenue
Service for taxable years still subject to audit or that the Company will
continue to qualify as a REIT in future years. A REIT generally is not taxed on
distributed income so long as it distributes to its shareholders at least 95% of
its real estate investment trust taxable income currently. Qualification as a
REIT involves the satisfaction of numerous requirements (some on an annual or
quarterly basis) established under highly technical and complex Code provisions
for which there are only limited judicial or administrative interpretations and
involves the determination of various factual matters and circumstances not
entirely within the Company's control. If in any taxable year the Company were
to fail to qualify as a REIT, the Company would not be allowed a deduction for
distributions to shareholders in computing taxable income and would be subject
to federal income tax on its taxable income at regular corporate rates. Unless
entitled to relief under certain statutory provisions, the Company would also be
disqualified from treatment as a REIT for the four taxable years following the
year during which qualification was lost. As a result, the funds available for
distribution to the Company's shareholders would be reduced for each of the
years involved. Although the Company currently intends to operate in a manner
designed to qualify as a REIT, it is possible that future economic, market,
legal, tax or other considerations may cause the Company to fail to qualify as a
REIT or may cause the Company's Board of Directors to revoke the REIT election.
Proposed Reincorporation
The Board of Directors of the Company has unanimously approved a proposal
to change the Company's state of incorporation from California to Maryland (the
"Reincorporation"). The primary purpose of the proposed change in domicile is to
avoid the applicability of the aforementioned provisions under the CGCL which
restrict the Company's ability to make distributions to its shareholders and
could potentially prevent the Company from making distributions in an amount
necessary to qualify as a REIT under the Code. The proposed Reincorporation is
subject to approval by shareholders at the 1997 Annual Meeting, the Proxy
Statement for which will describe the reasons for and certain consequences of
the proposed Reincorporation including certain differences between California
and Maryland corporate law and certain differences between the rights of
shareholders of the Company and the rights of stockholders of the successor
Maryland corporation. If the Reincorporation is consummated, matters relating to
shareholders' rights, corporate governance and similar matters generally will be
governed by Maryland law rather than California law, and no assurance can be
given that Maryland law with respect to those matters will not be less favorable
to shareholders than California law.
Dependence on Key Personnel
The Company is dependent on the efforts of its executive officers, J. David
Martin, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, and Daniel B.
Platt, Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Chief
Administrative Officer of the Company, and the
18
<PAGE> 19
loss of their services could have an adverse affect on the operations of the
Company. Mr. Martin has entered into an employment agreement with the Company.
Conflicts of Interest
The Company currently has various development projects which it acquired
from its President and Chief Executive Officer, J. David Martin, concurrently
with Mr. Martin's appointment as President and Chief Executive Officer in 1995.
While the Company has adopted procedures for decision-making with respect to
such projects (including Mr. Martin's absence from Board of Directors meeting
discussions involving such projects), nevertheless the arrangement could result
in conflicts of interest in one or more of the projects.
Environmental Matters
Under various federal, state and local laws, ordinances and regulations, an
owner or operator of real estate is liable for the costs of removal or
remediation of certain hazardous or toxic substances on or in such property.
Such laws often impose such liability without regard to whether the owner or
operator knew of, or was responsible for, the presence of such hazardous or
toxic substances. The presence of such substances, or the failure to properly
remediate such substances, may adversely affect the owner's or operator's
ability to sell or rent such property or to borrow using such property as
collateral. Persons who arrange for the disposal or treatment of such hazardous
or toxic substances may also be liable for the costs of removal or remediation
of such substances at a disposal or treatment facility, whether or not such
facility is owned or operated by such person. In connection with the ownership
(direct or indirect), operation, management and development of real properties,
the Company may be considered an owner or operator of such properties or as
having arranged for the disposal or treatment of hazardous or toxic substances
and, therefore, may be potentially liable for removal or remediation costs.
Certain environmental laws impose liability for release of asbestos-containing
materials into the air, and third parties may seek recovery from owners or
operators of real properties for personal injuries associated with
asbestos-containing materials. The Company may be potentially liable for removal
or remediation costs, as well as certain other costs, including governmental
fines and costs related to injuries to persons and property, resulting from the
environmental condition of its Properties, regardless of whether the Company
itself actually contributed to such condition.
Risks of Leverage
Neither the Company's bylaws nor its articles of incorporation limit the
amount of indebtedness the Company may incur. Although financial covenants
contained in the Company's line of credit facility (the "Credit Facility") limit
the amount of additional indebtedness the Company may incur, those covenants
currently would permit the Company to incur substantial additional indebtedness.
Currently, the maximum committed amount available under the Company's Credit
Facility is $135 million. The Company has utilized the Credit Facility to
finance certain recent acquisitions and may use the Credit Facility to fund the
acquisition of additional properties and for other general corporate purposes. A
portion of the Credit Facility is currently secured by certain Properties owned
by the Company and the Credit Facility requires that the Company comply with a
number of financial covenants. The Company is also obligated by other
indebtedness secured by individual Properties. There can be no assurances that
the Company will be able to meet its debt service obligations or to
19
<PAGE> 20
comply with the financial covenants in its debt instruments and, to the extent
that it cannot, the lenders typically would be entitled to demand immediate
repayment of the related indebtedness and to commence foreclosure proceedings
against the property securing such indebtedness, thereby subjecting the Company
to the risk of loss of some or all of its assets, including certain of its
Properties. Adverse economic conditions could cause the terms on which
borrowings become available to be unfavorable. In such circumstances, if the
Company is in need of capital to repay indebtedness in accordance with its terms
or otherwise, it could be required to liquidate one or more investments in
Properties at unfavorable prices. The Company will be subject to the risks
normally associated with debt financing, including the risk that the Company's
cash flow will be insufficient to meet required payments of principal and
interest, the risk of increases in interest rates on indebtedness (such as
borrowings under the Credit Facility) which bears interest at floating rates,
the risk that existing indebtedness cannot be refinanced or that the terms of
such refinancing will not be as favorable as the terms of existing indebtedness.
The Company's mortgage indebtedness (other than indebtedness under the Credit
Facility) is generally nonrecourse to the Company. However, even with respect to
nonrecourse mortgage indebtedness, the lenders may have the right to recover
deficiencies from the Company in certain circumstances, including fraud,
misapplication of funds and environmental liabilities.
Investments in Joint Ventures
In February 1997, the Company conveyed to an institutional investor,
California Urban Investment Partners ("CUIP"), a 75% interest in one of its
Properties, Margarita Plaza. This was accomplished by contributing the Property
to a limited liability company in which the Company has a 25% managing member
interest and CUIP has a 75% managing member interest. As part of the
transaction, CUIP reimbursed the Company for 75% of its acquisition cost of the
Property. The Company has agreed to convey a 75% interest in another one of its
Properties, Ladera Center, in a similar manner.
The Company may in the future acquire interests in limited and general
partnerships, limited liability companies, joint ventures and other enterprises
(collectively, "Joint Ventures") formed to own or develop real property or
interests in real property. The Company may acquire minority interests in
certain such Joint Ventures and also may acquire interests as a passive investor
without rights to actively participate in management of the Joint Ventures.
Investments in Joint Ventures involve additional risks, including the
possibility that the other participants may become bankrupt or have economic or
other business interests or goals which are inconsistent with those of the
Company, that the Company will not have the right or power to direct the
management and policies of the Joint Ventures and that such other participants
may take action contrary to the instructions or requests of the Company and its
policies and objectives or which could jeopardize the Company's ability to
maintain its qualification as a REIT. Such investments may also have the
potential risk of impasse on decisions, such as a sale, because neither the
Company nor any of the other participants have full control over the Joint
Ventures. The Company will, however, seek to maintain sufficient control of such
Joint Ventures to permit the Company's business objectives to be achieved and
its status as a REIT preserved, although there can be no assurance that it will
be successful in doing so, which could have a material adverse effect on the
Company and its ability to make distributions to shareholders. There is no
limitation under the Company's organizational documents as to the amount of
available funds that may be invested in Joint Ventures.
20
<PAGE> 21
Insurance Coverage Limitations
The Company carries comprehensive general liability coverage and umbrella
liability coverage on all of its Properties with limits of liability which the
Company deems adequate (subject to deductibles) to insure against liability
claims and provide for the cost of defense. Similarly, the Company is insured
against the risk of direct physical damage in amounts the Company estimates to
be adequate (subject to deductibles) to reimburse the Company on a replacement
cost basis for costs incurred to repair or rebuild each Property, including loss
of rental income during the reconstruction period. There are, however, certain
types of extraordinary losses which may be either uninsurable, or not
economically insurable. Should any uninsured loss occur, the Company could lose
its investment in, and anticipated revenues from, a Property, which could have a
material adverse effect on the Company and its ability to make distributions to
shareholders. Currently the Company also insures certain of its Properties for
loss caused by earthquakes in the aggregate amount of $23 million (subject to
deductibles) and one of its Properties for loss caused by flood. Because of the
high cost of this type of insurance coverage and the wide fluctuations in price
and availability, the Company has made the determination that the risk of loss
due to earthquake and flood does not justify the cost to increase this coverage
any further under current market conditions. However, there can be no assurance
that the occurrence of an earthquake, flood or other natural disaster will not
adversely affect the Company.
Authority to Issue Preferred Stock
The Company's articles of incorporation authorize the Board of Directors to
issue up to 5,000,000 shares of Preference Stock ("Preferred Stock") and to
establish the preferences and rights of any such shares issued. The issuance of
Preferred Stock would likely result in the holders of the Preferred Stock being
entitled to priority in distributions, thereby potentially reducing cash
available for distribution to holders of Common Stock, and upon the liquidation
of the Company. In addition, the issuance of Preferred Stock could involve the
creation of voting rights for the holders of Preferred Stock that might result
in their voting as a class with the holders of Common Stock or as a separate
class on certain matters, including the election of one or more Directors of the
Company. As a result, the Board of Directors could, without shareholder action,
authorize the issuance of one or more series of Preferred Stock with voting,
distribution, liquidation and other rights that could adversely affect holders
of Common Stock. No shares of Preferred Stock are currently issued or
outstanding.
Effect of Various Market Factors on Price of Common Stock
A variety of factors may influence the price of the Company's Common Stock
in public trading markets. The Company believes that investors generally
perceive REITs as yield-driven investments and compare the annual yield from
distributions by REITs with yields on various other types of financial
instruments. Thus an increase in market interest rates generally could adversely
affect the market price of the Company's Common Stock. Similarly, to the extent
that the investing public has a negative perception of companies in the retail
business or REITs that own and operate retail shopping centers and other
properties catering to retail tenants, the value of the Company's Common Stock
may be negatively impacted in comparison to shares of other REITs owning other
types of properties and catering to different types of tenants.
21
<PAGE> 22
The market price for the Common Stock may be affected by factors such as
the announcement of new acquisitions or development projects by the Company or
its competitors, quarterly variations in the Company's operating results or the
operating results of the Company's competitors, changes in earnings (losses) or
other estimates by analysts or reported results that vary from such estimates.
In addition, the stock market may experience significant price fluctuations
which could affect the market price of the Company's Common Stock which may be
unrelated to the operating performance of the Company. Following periods of
volatility in the market price of the Company's Common Stock, securities class
action litigation could be initiated against the Company which could result in
substantial costs and a diversion of management's attention and resources, which
would have a material adverse effect on the Company and its ability to make
distributions to shareholders.

Recent Issue of Unregistered Securities
On January 31, 1997, BPP/Valley Central LP, BPP/Riley LP and BPP/Cameron
Park LP, each a California limited partnership of which the Company is a general
partner, issued an aggregate of 1,495 limited partnership units that may be
exchanged after one year for an equal number of shares of Common Stock of the
Company. Such units were issued, as a part of the consideration paid for certain
properties acquired, to the existing privately held partnerships that
contributed such properties to the respective limited partnership. The value of
the Common Stock of the Company at the date of the transactions for which each
limited partnership unit may be exchanged was $14.75 per share. No registration
statement was required in connection with the issuance because the transactions
did not involve a public offering and were exempt under Section 4(2) of the
Securities Act.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS:
Overview
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the consolidated
financial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this Form 10-K.
Historical results and percentage relationships set forth in the consolidated
statements of income contained in the consolidated financial statements,
including trends which might appear, should not be taken as indicative of future
operations.
The Company's strategic focus is the development, acquisition, rehabilitation,
and operation of retail shopping centers on the West Coast. At December 31,
1996, the Company owned interests in 21 retail shopping centers, all located in
California, 16 of which were fully operational, one of which was operating but
undergoing renovation and expansion, and four of which were in various stages of
development. As of December 31, 1996, the Company also owned four
office/industrial properties located in Southern California, which are
considered non-strategic.
As part of its ongoing business, the Company regularly engages in discussions
with public and private real estate entities regarding possible portfolio or
asset acquisitions or business combinations.
Results of Operations
Comparison of 1996 to 1995. In the fourth quarter of 1995, the Company announced
that its Board of Directors had approved a plan to dispose of a portion of the
Company's non-strategic properties and to redeploy the proceeds from disposition
into retail properties. As a result of the decision to dispose of these
properties, the Company took a one-time non-cash charge of $21,373,000 in 1995
to write those assets down to their fair market value. During 1996, all five of
the written-down properties were sold, resulting in a net gain on sale of
$2,298,000. In 1995, the Company took additional one-time charges of $1,047,000
to write down goodwill, outdated computer equipment and a discontinued
investment in a real estate advisor, and $2,500,000 related to the
implementation of the Company's new strategic plan. There were no additional
charges related to the implementation of the plan taken in 1996. The $2,500,000
charge included a non-cash reduction in revenues of $1,278,000, primarily as a
result of a change in the formula used to estimate common area maintenance
reimbursements and percentage rents; and $975,000 in one-time general and
administrative expenses related to the transition to the new management team,
studies by new management of various organizational and operating policies of
the Company, and organizational and strategic changes resulting from those
studies, including the internalization of property management and the
installation of a new property management operating system.
Including these charges, net income increased $23,989,000 from a net loss of
$12,718,000 in 1995 to net income of $11,271,000 in 1996. If the one-time
charges in 1995 were excluded, net income before gain on sales of real estate,
minority interest, and extraordinary item would have decreased $77,000 from
$9,969,000 in 1995 to $9,892,000 in 1996. This decrease was net of several
effects, but, as discussed in the following paragraphs, was primarily
attributable to the expiration of the McDonnell Douglas lease and the subsequent
sale of the building in
25
<PAGE> 26
June of 1996, the sale of the Beverly Garland Hotel in December of 1995, lower
rents received on the Anacomp Building following the renegotiation of the
Anacomp lease during the first quarter of 1996, and higher expenses related to
the opening of regional offices in Los Angeles and San Francisco.
Revenues decreased $1,355,000 to $47,314,000 in 1996 from $48,669,000 in 1995.
Excluding the one-time charges in 1995, the decrease was $2,633,000 from
$49,947,000 in 1995 to $47,314,000 in 1996. This decrease is primarily
attributable to the sales of the McDonnell Douglas Building and the Beverly
Garland Hotel and the renegotiation of the Anacomp lease.
Rental operating expenses increased $536,000 to $12,603,000 in 1996 from
$12,067,000 in 1995. This increase is primarily attributable to the addition of
new properties, the expense associated with carrying the vacancy in the Anacomp
Building, and the opening of offices in Los Angeles and San Francisco.
The provision for bad debt decreased $562,000 to $410,000 in 1996 from $972,000
in 1995. This decrease is primarily attributable to fewer credit problems
amongst smaller tenants.
Interest expense decreased $1,216,000 to $10,744,000 in 1996 from $11,960,000 in
1995. This decrease is primarily attributable to a lower short-term interest
rate environment in 1996 and slightly lower average outstanding borrowings under
the Company's lines of credit.
Depreciation and amortization expense decreased $1,867,000 to $11,250,000 in
1996 from $13,117,000 in 1995. This decrease reflects the elimination of
depreciation and amortization charges on the properties sold in 1995 and 1996.
General and administrative expenses decreased $669,000 to $2,415,000 in 1996
from $3,084,000 in 1995. Exclusive of the one-time charges in 1995, general and
administrative expenses would have increased $306,000 in 1996. This increase
reflects the costs associated with the opening of offices in Los Angeles and San
Francisco as well as other increases commensurate with the increasing level of
operations in the Company.
In June 1996, the Company disposed of the McDonnell Douglas Building. Proceeds
from the disposition totaled $9,301,000, resulting in a gain of $9,000. In July
1996, the Company disposed of the Fireman's Fund and Highlands Plaza Buildings.
Proceeds from the dispositions totaled $22,701,000, resulting in a gain of
$291,000. In September 1996, the Company disposed of its 11.85% interest in the
building in which its corporate headquarters are located. Proceeds from the
disposition totaled $1,939,000, resulting in a gain of $1,981,000. In October
1996, the Company disposed of the Miramar Business Center. Proceeds from the
disposition totaled $6,934,000, resulting in a gain of $17,000. Proceeds from
these sales were used to reduce outstanding borrowings under the Company's lines
of credit.
In November 1996, the Company redeemed all of its outstanding 8-1/2% convertible
debentures due 2002, which aggregated $25,700,000 in principal amount, incurring
an extraordinary loss from the early extinguishment of debt of $884,000.
26
<PAGE> 27
The Company considers Funds From Operations (FFO) to be a relevant supplemental
measure of the performance of an equity REIT since such measure does not
recognize depreciation and certain amortization expenses as operating expenses.
Management believes that reductions for these charges are not meaningful in
evaluating income-producing real estate, which historically has not depreciated.
FFO means net income (loss) (computed in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles), before gains (or losses) from debt restructuring and
sales of property, plus depreciation of real property. FFO does not represent
cash generated from operating activities in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles and is not necessarily indicative of cash available to
fund cash needs and should not be considered as an alternative to net income as
an indicator of the Company's operating performance or as an alternative to cash
flow as a measure of liquidity.
During 1996, the Company reported that FFO increased $552,000 to $20,466,000 in
1996 from $19,914,000 in 1995. If the one-time charges in 1995 were excluded,
the Company would have reported a decrease in FFO in 1996 of $1,948,000. This
decrease was net of several effects, but was primarily attributable to the
expiration of the McDonnell Douglas lease and the subsequent sale of the
building in June of 1996, the sale of the Beverly Garland Hotel in December of
1995, lower rents received on the Anacomp Building following the renegotiation
of the Anacomp lease during the first quarter of 1996, and higher expenses
related to the opening of regional offices in Los Angeles and San Francisco.
Comparison of 1995 to 1994. Including the one-time charges in 1995, net income
decreased $25,882,000 from net income of $13,164,000 in 1994 to a net loss of
$12,718,000 in 1995. If these one-time charges in 1995 were excluded, the
Company would have reported net income before gain on sales of real estate of
$9,969,000 in 1995 as compared to $13,164,000 in 1994. This decrease was
primarily attributable to increases in interest expense, provision for bad debt,
and depreciation and amortization, the sale of A-Storage in June 1995, and the
changes in the formula used to estimate common area maintenance reimbursements
and percentage rents. The principal reasons for this decrease are discussed in
the following paragraphs.
Revenues decreased $2,718,000 to $48,669,000 in 1995 from $51,387,000 in 1994.
This decrease is primarily due to the changes in estimation techniques
previously mentioned, recognition in 1994 of certain 1993 tenant percentage
rents that were not estimatable at the end of 1993, and a decrease in other
percentage rents and sale of the A-Storage facility in 1995.
Rental operating expenses decreased $114,000 to $12,067,000 in 1995 from
$12,181,000 in 1994. The decrease is primarily due to the sale of A-Storage.
The provision for bad debt increased $670,000 to $972,000 in 1995 from $302,000
in 1994. This increase is primarily attributable to higher than normal credit
problems amongst smaller tenants and a decision by the Company to increase the
general provision for bad debt by $150,000.
Interest expense increased $378,000 to $11,960,000 in 1995 from $11,582,000 in
1994. The increase is primarily attributable to a higher short-term interest
rate environment for much of 1995 and slightly higher average outstanding
borrowings under the Company's lines of credit.
27
<PAGE> 28
Depreciation and amortization expense increased $1,153,000 to $13,117,000 in
1995 from $11,964,000 in 1994. The increase reflects additional depreciation
expense for rehabilitations of existing properties during 1994 and 1995.
General and administrative expenses increased $890,000 to $3,084,000 in 1995
from $2,194,000 in 1994. The increase reflects the previously mentioned one-time
charges.
In July 1995, the Company disposed of its A-Storage facility. Proceeds from the
disposition totaled $2,619,000, resulting in a gain of $1,428,000. In December
1995, the Company sold its interest in Beverly Garland Hotel. Proceeds from the
sale totaled $10,000,000 resulting in a gain of $805,000. Proceeds from these
sales were used to reduce outstanding borrowings under the Company's lines of
credit.
During 1995, the Company reported that FFO decreased $4,542,000 to $20,586,000
from $25,128,000 in 1994. The principal reasons for this decrease include
increases in interest expense and the provision for bad debt, the sale of the
A-Storage facility, changes in accounting estimation techniques, and a decrease
in tenant percentage rents. If the one-time charges were excluded, the Company
would have reported FFO of $23,086,000 in 1995, a decrease of $2,042,000 from
1994.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity
The Company anticipates that cash flow from operating activities will continue
to provide adequate capital for required payments on notes payable, recurring
tenant improvements, and dividend payments in accordance with REIT requirements
through the end of 1997. However, the Company will require additional sources of
capital to finance the acquisition and development of additional properties.
Sources of this additional capital may include borrowings under credit
facilities and mortgage indebtedness, proceeds from sales of non-strategic
assets, the sale of interests in certain properties to third parties and, to the
extent market conditions permit, the issuance of debt or equity securities.
However, there can be no assurances that capital necessary to finance future
acquisitions and developments will be available on acceptable terms or at all.
The Company satisfied its REIT requirement under the Internal Revenue Code of
1986 of distributing at least 95% of ordinary taxable income with distributions
to shareholders of $17,113,000 in 1996. Accordingly, Federal income taxes were
not incurred at the corporate level.
Capital Resources
In November 1996, the Company entered into a new $135,000,000 credit facility
(the "Credit Facility") with Nomura Asset Capital Corporation, replacing a
$50,000,000 credit facility with Bank of America. Of the total amount,
$90,000,000 is secured and $45,000,000 is unsecured. At December 31, 1996,
borrowings of approximately $72,900,000 were outstanding under the Credit
Facility, of which $35,525,000 was secured by mortgages on five of the Company's
properties and $37,375,000 was unsecured. Borrowings under the secured and
unsecured portions of the Credit Facility bear interest at rates of LIBOR
(London
28
<PAGE> 29
Interbank Offer Rate) plus 1.65% or LIBOR plus 1.85% (subsequently reduced to
1.75%), respectively. The Credit Facility is scheduled to mature in November
1998, with a one year extension option available.
In November 1996, the Company redeemed all of its remaining outstanding 8-1/2%
Convertible Debentures due 2002, which aggregated $25,700,000 in principal,
using proceeds from its Credit Facility.
At December 31, 1996, the Company had $15,275,000 outstanding under a
$28,800,000 construction loan agreement with Comerica Bank, secured by one of
the Company's development properties. The remaining availability of $13,525,000
is expected to be used to fund the completion of a 250,000 square foot retail
shopping center in Richmond, California. Borrowings under this loan bear
interest at the bank's eurodollar base rate plus 2.50% or at its prime rate. The
loan is scheduled to mature in November 1997, and the Company has the right to
extend for an additional year.
At December 31, 1996, the Company's capitalization consisted of $178,452,000 of
debt and $256,447,000 of market equity (market equity is defined as shares of
common stock outstanding multiplied by the closing price on the New York Stock
Exchange, which was $15.00 at December 31, 1996) resulting in a debt to total
market capitalization ratio of .41 to 1.0. At December 31, 1996, the Company's
total debt consisted of $121,977,000 of variable rate debt and $56,475,000 of
fixed rate debt. The average rates of interest on the variable and fixed rate
debt were 7.55% and 8.96%, respectively, at December 31, 1996.
It is management's intention that the Company have access to the capital
resources necessary to expand and develop its business. Accordingly, the Company
may seek to obtain funds through additional borrowings and public offerings and
private placements of debt and equity securities, although there can be no
assurance that additional capital will be available on acceptable terms or at
all. The Company has on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission a $200
million shelf registration statement on Form S-3. This registration statement
was filed for the purpose of issuing either common stock or convertible
debentures. As of December 31, 1996, no such issuance has occurred.
Operating Activities
Cash flow provided by operating activities was $17,521,000, $24,078,000 and
$19,825,000 for 1996, 1995 and 1994, respectively. Cash provided by operating
activities decreased in 1996 compared to prior years for a variety of reasons,
including decreased revenues and costs associated with the new Credit Facility.
Investing Activities
Cash flow used (provided) by investing activities was $33,399,000, ($2,519,000)
and $5,138,000 for 1996, 1995 and 1994, respectively. The substantial increase
in 1996 compared to prior years resulted from increased acquisition and
development activity.
29
<PAGE> 30
Financing Activities
Cash flow provided (used) by financing activities was $18,430,000, ($26,718,000)
and ($13,923,000) in 1996, 1995 and 1994, respectively. Net borrowings from
credit facilities and notes payable increased to $61,346,000 in 1996 from net
repayments of $5,825,000 in 1995, while distributions paid in 1996 decreased to
$17,113,000 from $22,564,000 in 1995. A portion of these borrowings during 1996
were used by the Company to redeem its remaining outstanding 8-1/2% Convertible
Debentures due 2002, totaling $26,000,000 in principal and interest. In 1994,
cash flow used by financing activities included a net repayment on credit
facilities of $3,100,000 and distributions of $22,723,000, partially offset by
proceeds from the issuance of stock of $13,254,000.
Effects of Inflation
Substantially all of the Company's leases contain provisions designed to
mitigate the adverse impact of inflation. Such provisions include clauses
enabling the Company to receive percentage rentals based on tenants' gross
sales, which generally increase as prices rise, and/or escalation clauses, which
generally increase rental rates during the terms of the leases. Such escalation
clauses are often related to increases in the consumer price index or similar
inflation indices. Most of the Company's leases require the tenant to pay its
share of operating expenses, including common area maintenance, real estate
taxes and insurance, thereby reducing the Company's exposure to increases in
these operating expenses resulting from inflation to the extent that its
properties are occupied. The Company periodically evaluates its exposure to
short-term interest rates and may, from time to time, enter into interest rate
protection agreements which mitigate, but do not eliminate, the effect of
changes in interest rates on its floating-rate loans.
Certain Factors that Could Affect Future Results
Management's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of
operations contains (as do other portions of this report) certain
forward-looking statements that are subject to risk and uncertainty. Reference
is made to "Risk Factors" included under Item 1 contained elsewhere in this
Annual Report on Form 10-K for a discussion of certain factors that might cause
actual results to differ materially from those set forth in the forward-looking
statements.

ITEM 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Burnham Pacific
Properties, Inc. as of December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the related consolidated
statements of income, stockholders' equity, and cash flows for each of the three
years in the period ended December 31, 1996. Our audits also included the
financial statement schedule listed in Item 14(a). These consolidated financial
statements and financial statement schedule are the responsibility of the
Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the
consolidated financial statements and financial statement schedule based on our
audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. 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, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of Burnham Pacific Properties, Inc. as
of December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the results of its operations and its cash
flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1996, in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. Also, in our opinion,
such financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic
consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly in all
material respects the information set forth therein.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Organization
Burnham Pacific Properties, Inc. (the "Company") is a fully integrated,
self-managed real estate company which acquires, rehabilitates, develops and
manages retail properties on the West Coast. As of December 31, 1996, the
Company owned interests in 21 retail properties, all located in California
including four retail projects in various stages of development (See Note 3).
The Company also owned four industrial and office properties located in Southern
California. The Company has elected to qualify as a real estate investment trust
("REIT") for Federal income tax purposes.
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
the Company and all majority-owned partnerships and joint ventures. All
significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in
consolidation.
Real Estate
Real Estate is stated at cost or, in the case of real estate which
management believes is impaired, at the lower fair value of such properties.
Additions, renovations and improvements are capitalized. Maintenance and repairs
which do not extend asset lives are expensed as incurred. Depreciation is
computed using the straight-line method over estimated useful lives ranging from
14 to 30 years for buildings, 2 to 17 years for improvements, and 3 to 10 years
for furniture, fixtures and equipment.
Amortization
Deferred loan fees, direct lease costs and certain other costs are
amortized using the straight-line method over the related estimated life.
Income Taxes
Income taxes have not been provided as the Company believes that it has
met all requirements in 1996, 1995 and 1994 to qualify as a REIT under Internal
Revenue Code Sections 856-860 including the distribution of at least 95% of
ordinary taxable income to stockholders. Taxable income differs from net income
for financial reporting purposes principally because of differences in the
timing of recognition of interest, depreciation, rental revenue, and sales of
assets. The reported amounts of the Company's net assets at December 31, 1996
was greater than their tax basis for Federal purposes by approximately
$2,841,000.
<PAGE> 38
Net Income (Loss) Per Share
Net income (loss) per share is calculated using the weighted average
number of shares outstanding during each year.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For purposes of reporting cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include
cash and certificates of deposit with original maturities of less than 90 days.
Financial Instruments
The carrying values reflected in the consolidated balance sheets at
December 31, 1996 and 1995 reasonably approximate the fair values for cash and
cash equivalents, receivables, accounts payable, and line of credit advances. In
making such assessment, the Company has utilized discounted cash flow analyses,
estimates, and quoted market prices as appropriate. The Company estimates that
the fair value of notes payable at December 31, 1996 is higher than their
carrying value by approximately $2,100,000. At December 31, 1995, the Company
estimated that the fair value of the Convertible Debentures was lower than their
carrying value by approximately $900,000 and the fair value of notes payable was
higher than their carrying value by approximately $2,600,000.
Accounting for Impairments
In the fourth quarter of 1995, the Company adopted Statement of Accounting
Standards Number 121 (FAS 121), "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived
Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed of." FAS 121 requires that
assets to be held and used be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes
in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset in question may
not be recoverable (see Note 8).
Reclassifications
Certain of the 1995 and 1994 amounts have been reclassified to conform to
1996 presentation.

The Real Estate is leased to tenants under leases expiring at various
dates through 2033. Certain of these leases contain provisions for rent
increases based on cost-of-living indices and certain leases contain renewal
options of up to 55 years. Future minimum rental income to be received by the
Company under the terms of these operating leases is as follows as of December
31, 1996 (in thousands):

</TABLE>
Certain real estate, with a net book value of $253,694,000 at December 31,
1996, is pledged as collateral for notes payable described in Note 4. In
addition, the notes are secured by assignments of rents on such real estate.
Certain real estate is located on land which is subject to noncancelable ground
leases expiring at various dates through 2032 with minimum annual lease payments
of approximately $252,000. The Company expects to convey a 75% interest in each
of two retail centers acquired in 1996 and having a net book value of
$30,221,000 at December 31, 1996 (see Note 15).
3. DEVELOPMENT PROPERTIES
On September 28, 1995, the Company and various persons affiliated with The
Martin Group of Companies, Inc., a San Francisco-based real estate development
firm owned by J. David Martin, executed definitive documents relating to the
Company's acquisition of interests in six retail properties in the San Francisco
Bay area (the "Martin Properties"). On October 1, 1995, Mr. Martin became
President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company and a member of the
Company's Board of Directors.
<PAGE> 40
The six Martin Properties consisted of one completed retail center, one
center which was under construction, and four properties (the "Development
Properties"), to which the Martin Group affiliates had development rights and
that are in various stages of pre-development.
The acquisition vehicles for the six Martin Properties are six separate
limited partnerships of which the Company is general partner and affiliates of
The Martin Group are the limited partners. Each of the partnership agreements
contemplates that the Company will acquire or develop a specified Martin
Property through the relevant partnership. Under the terms of the agreements
entered into on September 28, 1995, the Martin Group affiliates have contributed
all of their interest in the relevant Martin Properties in exchange for limited
partnership units in their respective partnerships. At the closing of the
completed and operating retail center, the Company paid approximately $1,400,000
of cash to acquire minority interests and as general partner of the relevant
partnership became responsible for mortgage indebtedness of approximately
$7,132,000 secured by such Property. For the Property which was under
construction, the partnership will only become effective upon completion of
construction, which is expected to occur during 1997. Upon the closing of the
acquisition of the development rights for each of the Development Properties,
the Company became obligated to contribute funds to the partnership sufficient
to reimburse the Martin Group for its out-of-pocket costs with respect to the
relevant Development Property and thereafter to make further contributions to
the partnership to fund the completion of the Property.
The partnership agreement for the Property which was under construction
and each of the Development Properties provides that upon completion of the
Property, the annualized stabilized net operating income of the Property will be
multiplied by 10 in order to arrive at the completed value of the Property, the
cost of construction and other project costs will be deducted from such
completed value in order to "value" the equity interests of the limited partners
in the Property, and such equity interest will be stated as a number of limited
partnership units determined by dividing such limited partners' equity by $16.
The actual value of such limited partnership units is intended to be the market
value of an equivalent number of shares of the Company's Common Stock, inasmuch
as each holder of limited partnership units will have the right to "put" such
units to the partnership at the then market value of an equivalent number of
Company shares. Upon the exercise of such "put", the Company has the option of
exchanging such units for Company shares on a 1-for-1 basis.
The limited partnership that acquired the completed retail center issued
limited partnership units exchangeable for 41,878 shares of Common Stock in
consideration for the interests of the Martin Group affiliates in the Property.
At December 31, 1996 and 1995, these operating partnership units had a cost
basis of approximately $434,000 and are reflected as minority interest in the
accompanying financial statements. Current estimates of the total project cost,
net operating income and the resulting "value" of the Martin Group affiliates'
equity interest in the Property currently under construction and each of the
Development Properties have been made, and based upon such estimates each
partnership agreement specifies the maximum number of units that may be issued
to the limited partners of that partnership, and the Company has accordingly
reserved the same maximum number of shares of Common Stock that may be issued
pursuant to the exchanges for limited partnership units described above. If the
actual resulting equity is determined to be less than originally
<PAGE> 41
estimated (either because project costs are higher than estimated or because
stabilized net operating income is less than estimated or both), then the number
of limited partnership units - and the corresponding number of Company shares
for which such units may be exchanged - will be reduced. Other than to reflect a
stock split or other capital adjustment of the shares of Common Stock of the
Company, under no circumstances can the number of units be increased above the
number specified in the applicable partnership agreement. A maximum of 1,915,000
Company shares have been reserved for issuance upon exchange of the maximum
number of 1,915,000 limited partnership units that may be issued with respect to
all six Martin Properties.
As of December 31, 1996, in addition to the one Property which was under
construction in 1995, two of the four remaining Development Properties had begun
construction. The total project costs (exclusive of partnership units
representing the equity interest of the limited partners) for the Properties
currently under construction and the two remaining Development Properties are
estimated at approximately $187,000,000.

The 1996 maturity was a non-recourse mortgage note to an insurance company
due December 1, 1996, secured by a retail center having an equivalent carrying
value, which the Company decided to deed back to the mortgagee or alternatively,
not to contest the foreclosure of the mortgage. Any gain or loss associated with
the disposition of this property is not considered significant.
During 1996, the Company obtained a bank construction loan in the amount
of $28,800,000 secured by one of its Development Properties (Note 3) on which
outstanding borrowings accrue interest at the bank's eurodollar base rate plus
2.50% or at its prime rate. At December 31, 1996, the Company had $15,275,000
outstanding under this construction loan at an average rate of approximately
8.03%. The loan expires in 1997, with a one year extension option available, and
borrowings are included in notes payable.
5. LINE OF CREDIT ADVANCES
In November 1996, the Company obtained a $90,000,000 revolving credit
facility secured by certain real estate on which outstanding borrowings during
1996 accrued interest at LIBOR (London Interbank Offer Rate) plus 1.65%. At
December 31, 1996, the Company had $35,525,000 outstanding under this facility
at an average rate of approximately 7.15%. This facility replaced a $40,000,000
revolving line of credit with a bank which was secured by certain real estate on
which borrowings accrued interest at IBOR (the bank's international reference
rate) plus 1.75% or at its prime rate. At December 31, 1995, the Company had
$24,933,000 outstanding under this facility at an average rate of approximately
7.56%.
In addition, during November 1996 the Company obtained a $45,000,000
unsecured credit facility with the same lender under which outstanding
borrowings during 1996 accrued interest at LIBOR plus 1.85%. At December 31,
1996, $37,375,000 was outstanding at an average rate of approximately 7.35%.
Subsequent to year end, the lender reduced the rate of interest on this credit
facility to LIBOR plus 1.75%. This facility replaced a $10,000,000 unsecured
line of credit with the former lender under which outstanding borrowings accrued
interest at IBOR plus 2.00% or at its prime rate. At December 31, 1995, $0 was
outstanding under this credit facility.
Both of the Company's new credit facilities expire in November 1998, with
a one year extension option available, and are subject to various borrowing base
and debt service coverage limitations including that the ratio of dividends paid
to "funds from operations" (as defined in the facility) must not exceed 95%, or
such greater amount as is necessary to preserve the Company's qualifications as
a REIT for Federal income tax purposes.
6. CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURES
On March 6, 1992, the Company issued $75,000,000 of 8-1/2% Convertible
Debentures due 2002 at $1,000 per Debenture. During November 1996, the Company
redeemed these Convertible Debentures at par ($25,700,000). Proceeds for the
redemption were obtained from borrowings under the Company's new credit
facilities. In connection with this extinguishment of debt, the Company recorded
an extraordinary loss of $884,000. Through December 31, 1995, 3,081,000 shares
had been issued as a result of the conversion of $49,309,000 of these
Debentures; there were no conversions during 1996.
<PAGE> 43
7. GAIN ON SALES OF REAL ESTATE
During 1996, the Company disposed of the McDonnell Douglas Building,
Highlands Plaza, the Fireman's Fund Building, the Miramar Business Plaza and its
interest in the building which contains its corporate headquarters. Proceeds
from the dispositions totaled approximately $40,874,000, resulting in a gain of
approximately $2,298,000. Such proceeds were used to reduce borrowings under the
Company's credit facilities. During 1995, the Company disposed of A-Storage
Place and the Beverly Garland Hotel. Proceeds from the dispositions totaled
approximately $12,619,000, resulting in a gain of approximately $2,233,000. Such
proceeds were used to reduce borrowings under the Company's credit facilities.
8. IMPAIRMENTS/WRITEDOWNS OF ASSETS
During the fourth quarter 1995, the Company announced that its Board of
Directors had approved a plan to dispose of a portion of the Company's office
portfolio and to redeploy the proceeds from disposition into target retail
properties. As a result of the decision to dispose of these properties, the
Company took a one-time non-cash charge of $21,373,000. Fair market value was
based on estimated sales proceeds and discounted cash flows for the related
properties. In addition, the Company took additional one-time charges of
$1,047,000 to write down goodwill, outdated computer equipment and a
discontinued investment in a real estate advisor.
9. DIVIDEND DISTRIBUTIONS
Based on information provided by the Company's regular tax advisor, the

12. STOCK OPTIONS
The Company has a stock option plan which expires in 2006 and is
administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. A maximum
of 1,800,000 shares of Common Stock are reserved for issuance upon the exercise
of options that may be granted under the plan at an exercise price of at least
100% of the market value of such stock on the date the options are granted.
Options granted expire 10 years from the date of grant. The stock option plan as

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards Number 123, "Accounting for
Stock-Based Compensation," encourages, but does not require companies to record
compensation cost for stock-based employee compensation plans at fair value. The
Company has chosen to continue to account for stock-based compensation using the
intrinsic value method prescribed in Accounting Principles Board Opinion Number
25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," and related Interpretations.
Accordingly, compensation cost for stock options is measured as the excess, if
any, of the quoted market price of the Company's stock at the date of the grant
over the amount an employee must pay to acquire the stock. Had compensation
costs for the Company's stock option awards been determined based upon the fair
value at the grant date for awards in 1996 and 1995 and recognized on a
straight-line basis over the related vesting period, in accordance with the
provisions of SFAS Number 123, the Company's net income ( in thousands) and
earnings per share would have been reduced to the pro forma amounts indicated
below:
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
1996 1995
---- ----
<S> <C> <C>
Net Income (Loss) - pro forma $11,251 $(13,664)
Earnings (Loss) per share - pro forma .66 (.80)
</TABLE>
<PAGE> 46
The pro forma effect on net income for 1996 and 1995 are not representative of
the pro forma effect on net income in future years because it does not take into
consideration pro forma compensation expense related to grants made prior to
1995. The estimated fair value of options granted under the Company's stock
option plan during 1996 and 1995 were estimated at $705,000 and $946,000,
respectively, on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model
with the following weighted-average assumptions: 8.0% dividend yield, volatility
of 25%, risk free rate of return of 6.00% and expected lives of 5 years. The
estimated fair value of options granted are subject to the assumptions made and
if the assumptions changed, the estimated fair value amounts could be
significantly different. The above weighted-average assumptions are an
approximation of historical information and are not intended to represent future
events or trends.
13. DIVIDEND REINVESTMENT PLAN
During 1995 and 1994, the Company had a Dividend Reinvestment Plan which
enabled stockholders to invest their dividends in newly issued shares at a 5%
discount from "fair market value" (as defined in the Plan). For 1995 and 1994,
222,894 shares and 161,363 shares, respectively, were issued through the Plan.
During 1994, the Plan permitted participants to make optional cash payments to
purchase stock at a 5% discount with a $100 minimum and a $5,000 maximum
investment per quarter. During 1994, approximately $10,731,000 of such optional
payments were received and 703,635 shares were issued. The Company suspended the
optional cash payment portion of the Plan effective January 1, 1995 and the
direct discounted reinvestment portion of the Plan effective January 1, 1996.
14. REPURCHASE OF STOCK
During the second quarter of 1995, the Company purchased 94,500 shares of
stock on the open market at an average price of $13.28.
15. TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES
The Company acquired two retail centers in July and December 1996, having
a net book value of $30,221,000 at December 31, 1996, with the expectation that
an institutional investor would ultimately acquire 75% interests in such centers
by paying the Company 75% of its acquisition costs for these properties. The
Company is advised that an entity controlled by a director of the Company holds
an approximately 1.5% interest in, and is an advisor to, the institutional
investor. On February 20, 1997, the institutional investor funded $7,191,000 to
acquire a 75% interest in one of the retail centers. The Company expects the
institutional investor to fund the other acquisition during the first half of
1997.
During 1993, the Company loaned to its then president $898,700. As of
December 31, 1996, the loan had been repaid in full, in accordance with its
terms and conditions.
In April 1995, the Company entered into an agreement to contribute up to
$650,000 as an investor in a real estate advisor organized to provide advisory
services to investment vehicles acquiring real property located in the Republic
of Mexico. The Company's chairman and two other unrelated individuals were the
managers of, and individually owned interests in, the advisor. In November 1995,
following the investment of $350,000 in the advisor, and in conjunction with the
Board of Directors' determination to concentrate the Company's future
<PAGE> 47
activities on retail properties, the Company terminated the contribution
agreement and wrote off its investment in the advisor.
The Company temporarily advanced the $200,000 purchase price for 16,000
shares of its Common Stock purchased during 1995 by each of three Company
directors, at the then fair market value of such stock. The note of one
director, for $197,000 bearing interest at the Company's cost of borrowing,
remained outstanding at December 31, 1995, and, was fully repaid early in 1996.
The sales to the directors were a part of a stock purchase program offered to
all Company employees which, except for the purchases by the three directors,
was rescinded prior to the 1995 year-end.
For a description of transactions in which the Company's current president
and chief executive officer was an interested party prior to his election to
such positions and as a director (see Note 3).
16. RETIREMENT SAVINGS PLAN
In 1992, the Company implemented a contributory Retirement Savings Plan.
The maximum contribution is 15% of annual salaries of which up to 3% is
contributed by the Company at a rate of up to 75% of employee contributions. The
Company's contributions to this Plan for 1996, 1995 and 1994 were approximately
$33,000, $29,000 and $25,000, respectively.

In the fourth quarter of 1995 in addition to the one-time charges
described in Note 8, the Company took additional one-time charges of $2,500,000
related to the implementation of the Company's new strategic plan. The
$2,500,000 charge included a non-cash reduction in revenues of $1,278,000
primarily as a result of a change in the formula used to estimate common area
maintenance reimbursements and percentage rents; and $975,000 in one-time
general and administrative expenses related to the transition to a new
management team, studies by new management of various organizational and
operating policies of the Company, and organizational and strategic changes
resulting from those studies including the internalization of property
management and the installation of a new property management operating system.
18. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
On January 31, 1997, the Company purchased a portfolio of four retail
shopping centers. The purchase price of the portfolio (before transaction costs
and normal closing adjustments) was $51,750,000. The acquisition of the
portfolio was financed by the assumption of a $3,693,000 mortgage loan bearing
interest at 9.75% due in July, 1998, secured by one of the properties; a new
$25,400,000, 7.98%, 7-year mortgage loan, secured by another of the properties;
with the balance coming from borrowings under the Company's credit facilities.
The issuer of the $25,400,000 mortgage note is a bankruptcy remote, special
purpose partnership in which the Company has substantially all economic
benefits.
On January 31, 1997, the Company sold a portion of Plaza Rancho Carmel for
$735,000. No gain or loss resulted from such sale.
On February 28, 1997, the Company purchased a retail shopping center for
$6,160,000. The acquisition was financed with borrowings under the Company's
credit facilities.
