                     PRO FORMA CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENT

                                   (UNAUDITED)


         The  accompanying  pro  forma  condensed  statement  of  earnings  from
operations of Security  Capital Pacific Trust ("PTR")  reflects the transaction,
which was  consummated on September 9, 1997,  pursuant to which PTR acquired the
operations  and business of Security  Capital  Pacific  Incorporated  (the "REIT
Manager")  and  SCG  Realty  Services   Incorporated  (the  "Property  Manager")
previously owned by Security Capital Group Incorporated ("Security Capital"), in
exchange for PTR common shares (the "Transaction").  The Transaction resulted in
PTR becoming an internally managed REIT. Management believes this information is
helpful in understanding PTR's 1997 financial results.

         In addition to the  Transaction,  the pro forma condensed  statement of
earnings from operations  reflects the 1997 acquisitions and dispositions of the
following  multifamily  communities  previously  reported  in the Form 8-K dated
September  8, 1997  which  were as  follows  (the  "Community  Acquisitions  and
Dispositions"):

         The pro forma condensed  statement of earnings from operations has been
prepared based on certain pro forma adjustments to PTR's historical statement of
earnings.  The  accompanying  pro forma  condensed  statement  of earnings  from
operations  for the year ended  December  31,  1997 has been  prepared as if the
Transaction  and the Community  Acquisitions  and  Dispositions  had occurred on
January 1, 1997.

         A pro forma  condensed  balance  sheet as of December  31, 1997 has not
been presented as all of the aforementioned transactions had been completed, and
therefore included, in the historical balance sheet as of December 31, 1997.

         The pro forma condensed  statement of earnings from operations does not
purport to be indicative of the results of operations  which would actually have
been obtained had the transactions  described above been completed on January 1,
1997 or which may be obtained in the future.  The pro forma condensed  statement
of earnings from  operations  should be read in conjunction  with the historical
statement  of  earnings  of PTR  as set  forth  in  PTR's  1997  Form  10-K.  In
management's opinion, all material adjustments have been made.

         ings for the year ended December 31, 1997.

(b)      For  those  PTR  multifamily  community   acquisitions  acquired  after
         January 1, 1997 that were reported on PTR's previously filed  Form  8-K
         dated September 8, 1997, reflects the predecessor's historical revenues
         and certain expenses and certain pro forma  adjustments from January 1,
         1997 to the  respective  dates of  acquisition. The historical revenues
         and certain  expenses  exclude amounts which would not be comparable to
         the proposed  future  operations of  the  communities  such as  certain
         interest  expense (unless  mortgage debt was assumed), interest income,
         income   taxes  and  depreciation.   This  column  also   reflects  the
         elimination of the historical revenues and expenses for the period from
         January 1, 1997 to the respective  dates of disposition, related to the
         multifamily community  dispositions  reported  on  the Form 8-K,  dated
         September  8, 1997  the  proceeds  of  which  were used to  fund  these
         acquisitions  (the transactions were structured as tax-free exchanges).

          (v) Represents the pro forma interest  expense  adjustment  related to
              utilization  of line of credit  borrowings  that  would  have been
              required if the community  acquisitions had occurred at January 1,
              1997, net of the pro forma reduction in line of credit  borrowings
              associated with excess proceeds from dispositions.

          (vi)Reflects  adjustment to PTR's REIT  management fee expense related
              to the net pro  forma  increase  in cash flow  resulting  from the
              acquisitions and dispositions.

  (c)    Reflects the  historical  operating  expenses of the  Property  Manager
         which were directly related to providing services to PTR for the period
         from January 1, 1997 to September 9, 1997.

  (d)    Reflects the  elimination of PTR's pro forma  expenses  related to REIT
         management fees and property management fees.

  (e)    Reflects the  historical  depreciation  expense of the REIT Manager and
         the Property Manager  directly  related to the fixed assets  (primarily
         computer equipment and software) acquired as part of the Transaction of
         $593 and the estimated  increase in depreciation that would result from
         the capitalization of development-related  costs of $220 for the period
         from January 1, 1997 to September 9, 1997  discussed in note (f). These
         capitalized  costs  will be  depreciated  utilizing  the same lives and
         methods currently utilized by PTR.

 (f)     Reflects the historical  general and  administrative  costs of the REIT
         Manager of $11,594 which were  associated with  providing  services  to
         PTR for the period from January 1, 1997 to  September  9, 1997, reduced
         for  the  pro  forma adjustment  to  capitalize  qualifying  direct and
         incremental costs relating  primarily to the development of real estate
         investments of $5,759 that would have been  capitalized  by  PTR  under
         generally   accepted    accounting   principles   ("GAAP"),  had    the
         transaction  occurred on January 1, 1997. This amount is net of a  $524
         adjustment  related  to  the  pro  forma reduction  of  internal  costs
         capitalized in connection with PTR's  operating  community acquisitions
         for the period from  September 9, 1997 to  December  31, 1997.  The pro
         forma  reduction  results from a March 1998  accounting  rule requiring
         that internal  acquisition  costs be expensed as incurred.  PTR was not
         able under GAAP to  capitalize   internal   development-related   costs
         prior to  September 9, 1997 because the  REIT   management fee paid was
         not a direct reimbursement of these costs.

         Capital to PTR of  $3,312  for  the   period   from  January 1, 1997 to
         September 9, 1997,  reduced for the pro forma adjustment to  capitalize

         development of real estate  investments of $263 that would  have   been
         capitalized  by  PTR  under  GAAP,  had  the  transaction  occurred  on
         January 1,  1997.  This  amount is net of an adjustment for $54 related
         to the pro forma  reduction of internal costs capitalized in connection
         with   PTR's   operating  community  acquisitions  for  the period from
         September 9, 1997   to  December  31,  1997.  The pro forma   reduction
         results from a March  1998  accounting  rule  requiring  that  internal
         acquisition  costs be expensed as incurred.

         Security  Capital  has  been  providing  these  services  to PTR  since

(h)      Reflects the increase in  weighted-average  Common  Shares  outstanding

         is based on the 3,296 Common Shares actually issued to Security Capital
         on  September  9, 1997,  calculated  as:  3,296 x 251 days / 365 days =

         investing activities and financing  activities,  it  provides a  reader
         with an indication   of  the ability of PTR to incur and service  debt,
         to make capital  expenditures and to fund other cash needs.  Funds from
         operations should not be considered as a   alternative to  net earnings
         or any other GAAP measurement of  performance  as an indicator of PTR's
         operating   performance  or  as  an  alternative  to  cash flows   from
         operating, investing or financing activities as a measure of liquidity.
         The funds from operations measure  presented by PTR,  while  consistent
         with the NAREIT  definition,  will not  be   comparable  to   similarly
         titled measures of other REITs who do not compute funds from operations
         in a manner  consistent with PTR. Funds from operations is not intended
         to   represent  cash   made  available  to  shareholders.  Furthermore,
         management  believes  that an  understanding  of funds from  operations
         will   enhance  the   reader's   comprehension  of  the  impact of  the
         Transaction to PTR which was a specific  consideration of PTR's Special
         Committee in  recommending  approval to the Board of Trustees.
