Archstone Communities Trust
Notes to Condensed Financial Statements
June 30, 1999 and 1998
(Unaudited)
(1) General
In July 1998, Security Capital Pacific Trust consummated a merger with
Security Capital Atlantic Incorporated (the "Atlantic Merger") to form the
company now known as Archstone Communities Trust. The transaction was accounted
for as a purchase and therefore, the financial information as of and for the
periods prior to the merger date reflects only the balances and activity of
Security Capital Pacific Trust.
The condensed financial statements of Archstone are unaudited and certain
information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements
have been omitted. While management believes that the disclosures presented are
adequate, these interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with
the financial statements and notes included in Archstone's 1998 Annual Report on
Form 10-K ("1998 Form 10-K").
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited financial
statements contain all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of
Archstone's financial statements for the interim periods presented. The results
of operations for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1999 and 1998
are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the entire
year.
The accounts of Archstone and its controlled subsidiaries are consolidated
in the accompanying condensed financial statements. All significant intercompany
accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Archstone uses
the equity method to account for its investments when it does not control, but
has the ability to exercise significant influence over, the operating and
financial policies of the investee. For an investee accounted for under the
equity method, Archstone's share of net earnings or losses of the investee is
reflected in income as earned and dividends are credited against the investment
as received.
The preparation of these financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent liabilities at the dates of the financial statements
and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods.
Actual amounts realized or paid could differ from those estimates.
Reclassifications
Certain 1998 amounts have been reclassified to conform to the 1999
presentation.
Administrative Services Agreement
During the six months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998, Archstone paid $3.3
million and $2.3 million ($3.7 million on a combined basis including amounts
paid by Security Capital Atlantic Incorporated prior to the Atlantic Merger),
respectively, to an affiliate for services purchased under an administrative
services agreement.

/(2)/ "In Planning" is defined as parcels of land owned or Under Control upon
which construction of apartments is expected to commence within 36

contingent contract or letter of intent) during a contractually agreed-
upon time period to acquire land for future development of apartment
communities at a fixed price, subject to approval of contingencies during
the due diligence process, but does not currently own the land. There can
be no assurance that such land will be acquired.

================
</TABLE>
At June 30, 1999, Archstone had unfunded apartment construction,
redevelopment and operating community acquisition commitments aggregating
approximately $361.7 million.
Archstone had 23 apartment communities and certain other real estate assets
under contract for sale or letter of intent with an aggregate carrying value of
$284.2 million as of June 30, 1999. Each property's carrying value is less than
or equal to its estimated fair market value, net of estimated costs to sell. The
property-level earnings, after mortgage interest and depreciation, from
communities held for disposition at June 30, 1999 were $8.9 million and $9.4
million for the six months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively.
During the three months ended March 31, 1999, Archstone concluded that the
full recovery of certain real estate assets was doubtful. As a result, a
provision for possible loss of $2.0 million was recorded to reduce these assets
to their estimated net realizable value. A similar provision of $3.0 million
($2.3 million of which related to certain mortgage notes receivable secured by
other real estate assets) was recorded during the six months ended June 30,
1998.
(3) Borrowings
Unsecured Credit Facilities
Archstone has a $750 million unsecured revolving line of credit provided by
a group of financial institutions led by Chase Bank of Texas, National
Association ("Chase"). The $750 million line of credit matures in July 2001, at
which time it may be converted into a two-year term loan at Archstone's option.
The line of credit bears interest at the greater of prime or the federal funds
rate plus 0.50%, or at Archstone's option, LIBOR (5.18% at June 30, 1999) plus
0.65%. Under a competitive bid option contained in the credit agreement,
Archstone may be able to borrow at a lower interest rate spread over LIBOR,
depending on market conditions, on up to $375 million of borrowings. Under the
agreement, Archstone pays a facility fee, which is equal to 0.15% of the
commitment.
The following table summarizes Archstone's line of credit borrowings (dollars
in thousands):

Notes to Condensed Financial Statements - (Continued)
Archstone's $100 million short-term, unsecured borrowing agreement with
Chase bears interest at an overnight rate that ranged from 5.44% to 6.25% during
the three months ended June 30, 1999. At June 30, 1999, there was $16.7 million
outstanding under this agreement.
Long-Term Unsecured Debt
As of June 30, 1999, Archstone had $1.3 billion of long-term unsecured debt
outstanding, including $1.2 billion of long-term unsecured senior notes and
$60.6 million in unsecured tax-exempt bonds which were issued on June 29, 1999
(collectively, "Long-Term Unsecured Debt"). Archstone's long-term unsecured
notes generally feature semi-annual interest payments and either amortizing
annual principal payments or balloon payments due at maturity. As of June 30,
1999, the $1.3 billion of aggregate Long-Term Unsecured Debt outstanding had a
weighted average fixed coupon rate of 7.2%, a weighted average effective
interest rate (including offering discounts and issuance costs) of 7.3% and a
weighted average remaining life to maturity of 8.2 years.
Mortgages Payable

Archstone's mortgages payable generally feature either monthly interest and
principal payments or monthly interest-only payments with balloon payments due
at maturity. A summary of all mortgages payable outstanding at June 30, 1999

The $750 million unsecured credit facility matures in July 2001, at which time
it may be converted into a two-year term loan, at Archstone's option.
Archstone's short-term $100 million unsecured borrowing agreement with Chase has
no stated maturity.
Derivative Financial Instruments
Archstone has limited involvement with derivative financial instruments and
does not use them for trading purposes. Archstone occasionally utilizes
derivative financial instruments in anticipation of future debt transactions to
hedge well-defined interest rate risk or to manage exposure to variable rate
debt.
On April 13, 1999, Archstone entered into an interest rate swap agreement with
a notional amount of $100 million, relating to a portion of the outstanding
balance on its $750 million unsecured line of credit. The $100 million swap
effectively provides for a fixed interest rate of 5.9% through April 13, 2000,
at which time the agreement terminates. The effective interest rate on
Archstone's unsecured line of credit was 6.2% per annum as of June 30, 1999.
On June 29, 1999, Archstone entered into an interest rate swap agreement with
a notional amount of $60.6 million, relating to unsecured tax-exempt bonds
carrying a fixed interest rate of 5.3% per annum. The $60.6 million swap
effectively provides for a floating interest rate through the bond maturity date
of June 1, 2008, at which time the agreement terminates. The actual floating
effective interest rate at June 30, 1999, was 3.8% per annum.
In January 1999, Archstone entered into two interest rate swap agreements with
notional amounts aggregating $55.0 million, relating to Long-Term Unsecured
Debt. The $55.0 million of notes, which were originally issued at a floating
weighted average effective interest rate of 7.3%, were effectively converted to
a fixed weighted average interest rate of 7.1% through maturity.
On May 13, 1999, Archstone entered into an interest rate swap agreement with a
notional amount of $36.3 million, relating to secured tax-exempt bonds carrying
a fixed interest rate of 9.3% per annum. The $36.3 million swap effectively
provides for a floating interest rate through the bond maturity date of May 23,
2004, at which time the agreement terminates. The actual floating effective
interest rate at June 30, 1999, was 4.3% per annum.
In connection with the closing of the $268.5 million of long-term secured debt
agreement in December 1998 with Fannie Mae, Archstone entered into an interest
rate cap agreement on December 30, 1998, with a notional amount aggregating
$118.5 million, which capped this portion of the debt at an effective interest
rate of 6.9% through December 2002. The actual floating effective interest rate
at June 30, 1999, was 6.4% per annum. Additionally in January 1999, Archstone
entered into an interest rate swap on the remaining $150 million, which was
originally issued at a floating weighted average interest rate of 5.9% per
annum. The swap effectively provides for a fixed interest rate of 6.3% until
maturity in 2006.
As of June 30, 1999, marking Archstone's various interest rate agreements to
market would result in a net gain of $11.8 million, if each had been terminated
on such date.

General
Archstone's debt instruments generally contain certain covenants common to the
type of facility or borrowing, including financial covenants establishing
minimum debt service coverage ratios and maximum leverage ratios. Archstone was
in compliance with all covenants pertaining to its debt instruments at June 30,
1999.
For the six months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998, the total interest paid in
cash on all outstanding debt was $74.1 million and $38.4 million, respectively.
Archstone capitalizes interest incurred during the construction period as part
of the cost of apartment communities under development. Interest capitalized
during the six months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998 was $17.7 million and $11.1
million, respectively.
Amortization of loan costs included in interest expense for the six months
ended June 30, 1999 and 1998 was $2.6 million and $1.8 million respectively.
(4) Mortgage Notes Receivable
In May 1999, Homestead Village Incorporated consummated a common share rights
offering and, in accordance with the terms of the agreement governing
Archstone's convertible mortgage notes receivable, the conversion ratio of the
notes was adjusted. The notes are convertible into Homestead common stock on
the basis of one share of Homestead common stock for every $10.44 of principal
face amount outstanding. Previously the conversion ratio was $11.50. As a
result of this lower conversion ratio, Archstone has the right to convert its
Homestead notes into 1,944,860 additional Homestead common shares.
(5) Cash Distributions/Dividends
Archstone paid first and second quarter 1999 distributions of $0.37 per
Archstone Common Share of Beneficial Interest, par value $1.00 per share
("Common Share"), on February 26, 1999 and May 28, 1999, respectively. On July
22, 1999, Archstone's Board of Trustees (the "Board") declared the third quarter
1999 cash distribution of $0.37 per Common Share, payable on August 27, 1999, to
shareholders of record on August 13, 1999. On March 31, 1999 and June 30, 1999
Archstone paid quarterly dividends of $0.4984 per Cumulative Convertible Series
A Preferred Share of Beneficial Interest (the "Series A Convertible Preferred
Shares"), $0.5625 per Series B Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Share of
Beneficial Interest (the "Series B Preferred Shares") and $0.5391 per Series C
Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Share of Beneficial Interest (the "Series C
Preferred Shares"). Collectively, the Series A Convertible Preferred Shares,
Series B Preferred Shares and Series C Preferred Shares are referred to as the
"Preferred Shares".
(6) Shareholders' Equity
In February 1999, the Board authorized the repurchase of up to $100 million of
Archstone's Common Shares. At the conclusion of the program in July 1999,
Archstone had repurchased 5.04 million of its Common Shares at a weighted
average price of $19.78 per share, for a total purchase price of $100.0 million.
Proceeds from apartment community dispositions were used to reduce Archstone's
unsecured credit facilities, providing the capacity to fund the share purchases.
During the six months ended June 30, 1999, approximately 538,300 of Series A
Convertible Preferred Shares were converted, at the option of the holders, into
approximately 725,000 Common Shares. In addition, 314,700 partnership units, in
a partnership of which Archstone is the sole general partner, were exchanged for
314,700 Common Shares. This activity is included in "Other, net" in the
accompanying Condensed Statement of Shareholders' Equity.
At June 30, 1999, Security Capital Group Incorporated, Archstone's largest
shareholder, owned approximately 39% of Archstone's Common Shares outstanding.

(7) Segment Data
During 1998, Archstone adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
131, Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information, which
established standards for the way that public business enterprises report
information about operating segments in audited financial statements, as well as
related disclosures about products and services, geographic areas and major
customers.
Archstone defines each of its apartment communities as individual operating
segments. Management has determined that all of its apartment communities have
similar economic characteristics and also meet the other criteria which permit
the apartment communities to be aggregated into one reportable segment.
Archstone relies primarily on Net Operating Income ("NOI") (defined as rental
revenues less property operating expenses and real estate taxes) for purposes of
making decisions about allocating resources and assessing segment performance.
Following are reconciliations of the reportable segment's: (i) revenues to
Archstone's consolidated revenues and (ii) NOI to Archstone's consolidated
earnings from operations (in thousands):

income.
Archstone does not derive any of its consolidated revenues from foreign
countries and does not have any major customers that individually account for
10% or more of Archstone's consolidated revenues.
(8) Subsequent Event
On August 6, 1999, Archstone sold 2,000,000 of Series D Cumulative Redeemable
Preferred Shares ("Series D Preferred Shares") at $24.2125 per share (after
underwriters' commissions) in an underwritten public offering. The net proceeds
of approximately $48.3 million (net of underwriting and offering costs) were
used to repay borrowings under Archstone's unsecured credit facilities. After
giving effect to the offering, Archstone has approximately $777.2 million in
shelf-registered securities available for issuance and $429.5 million of undrawn
capacity on its unsecured credit facilities.

INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS' REVIEW REPORT
The Board of Trustees and Shareholders
of Archstone Communities Trust:
We have reviewed the accompanying condensed balance sheet of Archstone
Communities Trust as of June 30, 1999, the related condensed statements of
earnings for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1999 and 1998, the
condensed statement of shareholders' equity for the six month period ended June
30, 1999 and the condensed statements of cash flows for the six month periods
ended June 30, 1999 and 1998. These condensed financial statements are the
responsibility of the Trust's management.
We conducted our review in accordance with standards established by the
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A review of interim
financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures to
financial data and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and
accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in
accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, the objective of which is
the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a
whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.
Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that
should be made to the condensed financial statements referred to above for them
to be in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
We have previously audited, in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards, the balance sheet of Archstone Communities Trust as of December 31,
1998, and the related statements of earnings, shareholders' equity, and cash
flows for the year then ended (not presented herein); and in our report dated
January 22, 1999, except as to Note 15, which is as of March 5, 1999, we
expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements. In our opinion,
the information set forth in the accompanying condensed balance sheet as of
December 31, 1998 is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the
balance sheet from which it has been derived.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations
The following information should be read in conjunction with Archstone's 1998
Form 10-K as well as the financial statements and notes included in Item 1 of
this report. The statements contained in this report that are not historical
facts are forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the
Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities and Exchange Act of
1934. These forward-looking statements are based on current expectations and
projections about the industry and markets in which Archstone operates,
management's beliefs and assumptions made by management. Words such as
"expects", "anticipates", "intends", "plans", "believes", "seeks", "estimates"
and variations of such words and similar expressions are intended to identify
such forward-looking statements. These statements are not guarantees of future
performance and involve certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions which are
difficult to predict. Therefore, actual outcomes and results may differ
materially from what is expressed or forecasted in such forward-looking
statements. Archstone undertakes no obligation to update publicly any forward-
looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or
otherwise. See Archstone's 1998 Form 10-K "Item 1. Business" for a discussion
of risk factors that could impact Archstone's future financial performance.
Results of Operations
Six Months Ended June 30, 1999 Compared to June 30, 1998
Net earnings attributable to Common Shares for the six months ended June 30,
1999 and 1998 were $88.3 million and $63.4 million, respectively, an increase of
$24.9 million (39.4%). This net increase resulted from a $24.4 million increase
in earnings from operations and a $3.5 million increase in net gains on
dispositions of depreciated real estate. The increases were partially offset by
a $1.8 million increase in Preferred Share dividends and a $1.1 million
extraordinary item related to the early extinguishment of certain mortgage debt.
Apartment Community Operations
At June 30, 1999, investments in apartment communities comprised over 99% of
Archstone's total real estate portfolio, based on total expected investment.
The following table summarizes the NOI generated from Archstone's apartment
communities for each period (in thousands, except for percentages):
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>

Real estate taxes........................... 28,058 15,567 80.2%

=================== ================== ======================
Operating margin (NOI/rental revenues)........ 64.9% 64.6% 0.3%
=================== ================== ======================
</TABLE>
The increases in rental revenues, property operating expenses and real estate
taxes are due primarily to a net increase of 91 operating apartment communities
from June 30, 1998 to June 30, 1999 (including those acquired in the Atlantic
Merger) and growth in NOI from operating apartment communities. Archstone's
communities which have been in operation since January 1, 1998, posted NOI
growth of 5.2% for the first six months of 1999 as compared to the same period
of 1998. This growth in NOI was driven primarily by strong revenue growth in
Archstone's well-located operating communities combined with a slight reduction
in expenses. Increased operating efficiencies and Archstone's commitment to
customer-focused operations have contributed to the improvement in NOI.
Approximately 86.3% and 85.7% of Archstone's operating portfolio was
classified as stabilized (meaning that development/redevelopment, new marketing
programs and possibly new management have been completed for a sufficient period
of time to achieve 93% occupancy at market rents) as of June 30, 1999 and 1998,
respectively. The full impact on NOI from Archstone's development activities
and, to a lesser extent, acquisition activities, is not reflected until after
the communities are stabilized. As newly developed buildings are completed and
leased, NOI increases until the overall community is producing a stabilized
yield, which is generally achieved 18 to 24 months after construction commences.
Management believes Archstone's operating results continue to demonstrate that
its development activities contribute positively to long-term performance of the
company.
15
<PAGE>
Management believes that future property operating results will be positively
impacted by Archstone's customer focused operating initiatives and its national
branding strategy. This strategy was designed to increase customer loyalty and
reduce turnover rates through quality service guarantees and other similar
initiatives.
Other Income
Other income is primarily influenced by interest income on convertible
mortgage notes receivable. During the six months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998,
Archstone recorded $11.7 million and $11.2 million in interest income,
respectively ($10.7 million and $10.4 million, respectively for purposes of
calculating funds from operations), from these notes. The increase is a direct
result of higher average outstanding note balances during the six months ended
June 30, 1999 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 1998. See "-
Liquidity and Capital Resources-Funding Sources" for a discussion of the
possible future monetization of these notes.
Depreciation Expense
The increase in depreciation expense resulted primarily from the increase in
the number and cost basis of operating communities, including those acquired in
the Atlantic Merger, partially offset by dispositions.
Interest Expense
The increase in interest expense is primarily attributable to higher
outstanding debt balances associated with the financing of Archstone's
investment activities. These higher borrowing costs were partially offset by
the capitalization of interest on apartment development activities. Interest
expense will be higher in 1999 as compared to 1998 primarily due to the debt
assumed in the Atlantic Merger and the additional debt issued in 1998 and 1999.
General and Administrative Expenses
The overall increase in general and administrative expenses relates primarily
to the incremental costs associated with operating the company after the
Atlantic Merger, as well as costs incurred in expanding into new markets such as
Boston, Massachusetts.
Provision for Possible Loss on Investments
During the three months ended March 31, 1999, management concluded that the
full recovery of certain real estate investments was doubtful. As a result, a
provision for possible loss of $2.0 million, which is included in "Other" in the
accompanying Condensed Statements of Earnings, was recorded to reduce these
assets to their estimated net realizable value. A similar provision of $3.0
million ($2.3 million of which related to certain mortgage notes receivable
secured by other real estate assets) was recorded during the six months ended
June 30, 1998.
Gains on Dispositions of Depreciated Real Estate
During the six months ended June 30, 1999, Archstone disposed of 15 apartment
communities and certain other real estate assets, representing gross proceeds of
$198.5 million. Archstone disposed of five apartment communities and certain
other real estate assets, representing gross proceeds of $101.1 million during
the six months ended June 30, 1998. Aggregate net gains of $19.0 million and
$15.5 million were recorded for the six months ended June 30, 1999 and June 30,
1998, respectively.
As part of its ongoing asset optimization strategy, Archstone had 23 apartment
communities and certain other real estate assets under contract or letter of
intent for sale with an aggregate carrying value of $284.2 million as of June
30, 1999. Subject to normal closing risks, Archstone expects to complete these
and other dispositions during 1999 and use the proceeds to fund future
investment opportunities. As part of management's long-term strategy of
proactively managing its investments, Archstone will continue to pursue
favorable opportunities to dispose of assets that do not meet its long-term
investment criteria, and use such proceeds for incremental investments in its
specifically targeted markets, including California, Washington, D.C. and
Boston, Massachusetts.
16
<PAGE>
Preferred Share Dividends
The higher level of Preferred Share dividends is attributable to the
assumption of the Series C Preferred Shares in the Atlantic Merger and an
increase in the Series A Convertible Preferred Share dividend rate, partially
offset by conversions of Series A Convertible Preferred Shares into Common
Shares.
Three Months Ended June 30, 1999 and 1998
Revenues and expenses for the three months ended June 30, 1999 compared to the
three months ended June 30, 1998 reflect changes similar to those discussed in
the preceding paragraphs for the comparison of the six months ended on the same
dates. The changes are substantially attributable to the same reasons discussed
in the preceding paragraphs for the six months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Archstone is committed to preserving its strong balance sheet and maintaining
financial flexibility. Archstone proactively manages its financial position
with the objective of having access to capital when many in the industry are
unable to fund incremental investment opportunities. Archstone seeks to take
advantage of compelling investment opportunities that are more likely to emerge
in a capital-constrained environment.
Archstone continues to focus on community dispositions in its non-core markets
as a source of funds for incremental strategic investments in its targeted
markets, including California, Washington, D.C. and Boston, Massachusetts.
Additionally, on August 6, 1999, Archstone received net proceeds of
approximately $48.3 million from the sale of 2,000,000 Series D Preferred
Shares. After giving effect to the use of these proceeds to repay borrowings on
its unsecured credit facilities, Archstone had approximately $429.5 million of
undrawn capacity on its unsecured credit facilities to fund incremental
investment opportunities. The company has only $112.3 million of debt with
final maturities in 1999 and 2000, excluding its unsecured credit facilities.
Furthermore, as of June 30, 1999, Archstone had $4.1 billion of unencumbered
assets. As a result of these factors, Archstone believes that its financial and
liquidity position are relatively strong and the company is well positioned to
capitalize on investment opportunities that may arise during the remainder of
1999.
Operating Activities
Net cash flow provided by operating activities increased by $34.4 million
(37.6%) for the six months ended June 30, 1999 as compared to the same period of
1998. This increase in cash flow is due primarily to operating communities
acquired in the Atlantic Merger in July 1998, newly developed apartment
communities coming on line and cash flow growth from existing apartment
communities.
Investing and Financing Activities
During the six months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998, Archstone invested $406.2
million and $246.8 million, respectively, in real estate investments. The
$406.2 million invested in real estate and the repurchase of $94.4 million of
Common Shares during the six months ended June 30, 1999 were financed primarily
from property dispositions, tax-deferred exchange escrow proceeds, cash flow
from operations and additional borrowings. The $246.8 million invested in real
estate during the six months ended June 30, 1998 was financed primarily from
property dispositions and borrowings under Archstone's unsecured credit
facilities. These unsecured credit facilities were partially repaid with
proceeds from the issuance of $125 million of Long-Term Unsecured Debt in March
1998.
Other significant financing activities included the payment of $116.1 million
and $73.4 million in Common Share and Preferred Share distributions for the six
months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively. The increases are primarily
attributable to an increase in the overall number of Common Shares outstanding,
Series C Preferred Shares assumed in the Atlantic Merger in 1998, and an
increase in the cash distributions paid per Common Share. Archstone prepaid
mortgages of $7.9 million and $25.9 million during the six months ended June 30,
1999 and 1998, respectively.
Archstone's significant non-cash investing and financing activities during the
six months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998 included the assumption of mortgage debt
relating to operating community acquisitions, and the conversion of Series A
Convertible Preferred Shares into Common Shares.
17
<PAGE>
Scheduled Debt Maturities and Line of Credit Balances
In order to reduce refinancing risk, Archstone's long-term debt obligations
are carefully structured to create a relatively level principal maturity
schedule in an attempt to minimize the requirement for large payments due in any
single year. As of June 30, 1999, Archstone has only $35.5 million of long-term
debt payments with final maturities due during the remainder of 1999 and only
$76.8 million of final maturities during 2000.
Archstone currently has $850 million in total borrowing capacity under its
unsecured credit facilities, with $420.5 million outstanding and an available
balance of $429.5 million at August 6, 1999. Archstone's unsecured credit
facilities, Long-Term Unsecured Debt and mortgages payable had effective
interest rates of 6.2%, 7.3% and 6.1%, respectively, as of June 30, 1999.
Shareholder Dividend/Distribution Requirements
Archstone paid first and second quarter 1999 distributions of $0.37 per Common
Share on February 26, 1999 and May 28, 1999, respectively. On July 22, 1999 the
Board declared a cash distribution of $0.37 per Common Share, payable on August
27, 1999 to shareholders of record on August 13, 1999. On March 31, 1999 and
June 30, 1999, Archstone paid quarterly dividends of $0.4984 per Series A
Convertible Preferred Share, $0.5625 per Series B Preferred Share and $0.5391
per Series C Preferred Share.
Based on current distribution levels (excluding the impact of anticipated
future increases in Archstone's dividend/distribution levels) and the number of
Archstone shares outstanding as of June 30, 1999, the company anticipates that
it will pay the following dividends/distributions during the next 12 months (in
thousands):

In connection with the August 6, 1999 issuance of 2,000,000 Series D Preferred
Shares, Archstone anticipates payment of $1.8 million in Series D Preferred
Share dividends in 1999 and $4.4 million annually thereafter ($2.1875 per
share).
Share Repurchase Program
In February 1999, the Board authorized the repurchase of up to $100 million of
Archstone's Common Shares. At the conclusion of the program in July 1999,
Archstone had repurchased 5.04 million of its Common Shares at a weighted
average price of $19.78 per share, for a total purchase price of $100.0 million.
Proceeds from apartment community dispositions were used to reduce Archstone's
unsecured credit facilities, providing the capacity to fund the share purchases.
Planned Investments
Following is a summary of unfunded planned investments as of June 30, 1999
(dollar amounts in thousands). The amounts labeled "Discretionary" represent
future investments that Archstone plans to make, although there is not a
contractual commitment to do so. The amounts labeled "Committed" represent the
approximate amount that Archstone is contractually committed to fund. For
community acquisitions under contract, only the transactions with non-refundable
earnest money are reflected as "Committed".

Archstone anticipates completion of most of the communities that are currently
under construction and the planned operating community improvements in the
remainder of 1999 and 2000 and expects to start construction on approximately
$200 million, based on total expected investment, of communities that are
currently in planning, during the remainder of 1999. Acquisitions of operating
communities that are currently under contract or letter of intent are expected
to be funded with disposition proceeds during the remainder of 1999. No
assurances can be given that communities Archstone does not currently own will
be acquired or that planned developments will actually occur. In addition,
actual costs incurred could be greater or less than Archstone's current
estimates.
Funding Sources
Archstone expects to finance its investments and operating expenses, including
those outlined above, primarily with cash flow from operating activities,
disposition proceeds and borrowings under its unsecured credit facilities, prior
to arranging long-term financing. At June 30, 1999, Archstone had 23 apartment
communities and certain other real estate assets under contract or letter of
intent for sale with an aggregating carrying value of $284.2 million. Subject
to normal closing risks, Archstone expects to complete these and other
dispositions during 1999. Archstone also routinely uses its unsecured credit
facilities to facilitate an efficient response to market opportunities while
minimizing the amount of cash invested in short-term investments at lower
yields.
Other sources of future liquidity and financial flexibility include:
(i) Archstone currently has $777.2 million in shelf registered securities
which can be issued in the form of Long-Term Unsecured Debt, preferred
shares or Common Shares on an as-needed basis, subject to its ability to
effect offerings on satisfactory terms.
(ii) Archstone continues to explore the potential monetization of its $221.3
million (face amount at June 30, 1999) investment in its convertible
mortgage notes receivable. Management views the future sale or other
monetization of these assets as a potential source of funds, although
there is presently no established market for these securities.
Other Contingencies and Hedging Activities
Archstone is a party to various claims and routine litigation arising in the
ordinary course of business. Archstone does not believe that the results of any
such claims and litigation, individually or in aggregate, will have a material
adverse effect on its business, financial position or results of operations.
Archstone has only limited involvement with derivative financial instruments
and does not use them for trading purposes. Archstone occasionally utilizes
derivative financial instruments in anticipation of future debt transactions to
hedge well-defined interest rate risk or to manage exposure to variable rate
debt. See "Item 1. Financial Statements, Note 3, Borrowings" for more
information on Archstone's derivative financial instruments.
Year 2000 Issue
Archstone uses a significant number of information technology ("IT") and non-
IT computer systems in its operations. The IT systems include accounting and
property management systems, its desktop and communications systems and its
other corporate systems. The non-IT systems include embedded microprocessors
that control building systems such as lighting, security, fire, elevators,
heating, ventilating and air conditioning systems.
In 1997, Archstone began to address the year 2000 issue (that is, the fact
that some systems might fail or produce inaccurate results using dates in or
around the year 2000). Most of Archstone's key IT systems, including its
property management and financial accounting software, have recently been
replaced or upgraded. Management believes, based on statements by vendors and
on its own testing, that all of the replacements and upgrades for mission-
critical IT systems are year 2000 ready. Management is also continuing to
replace or upgrade other non-critical IT systems with year 2000 ready systems to
the extent that it is cost-effective to do so.
19
<PAGE>
Archstone is working with its vendors to confirm that the non-IT systems at
its communities are year 2000 compliant and is continuing to replace critical
non-IT systems that it believes are not year 2000 compliant. Archstone expects
that its communities will be year 2000 compliant by the end of the third quarter
of 1999.
Archstone relies on a variety of outside suppliers to provide critical
services to its communities. Of particular concern are the local utilities.
Electric utilities, for example, use numerous embedded systems in producing,
measuring, controlling and dispensing electricity. Without electricity, almost
none of the systems at any community will function. Archstone does not control
these outside suppliers and for some suppliers there may be no feasible
alternative supplier available. In management's view, the most significant
foreseeable external risk associated with the year 2000 issue is the potential
for a sustained failure of a utility or other supplier which could have a
material adverse effect on the operations of the affected community. A
widespread sustained failure of utilities or other suppliers in areas that
Archstone has a substantial presence could have a material adverse effect on
Archstone.
Archstone has developed and will continue to refine contingency plans to
address the risk created by the year 2000 issue. These plans generally include
having community management representation available at the communities during
the century change to handle year 2000 issues as they arise and using the
methods that Archstone's community managers customarily use to address failures
by systems and suppliers.
Archstone's historical costs for addressing the year 2000 issue are not
material and management does not anticipate that its future costs associated
with the year 2000 issue will be material. Archstone does not separately track
the internal costs incurred for year 2000 compliance issues. Such costs are
principally the related payroll of its information technology group. Although
the cost of replacing Archstone's key IT systems is substantial, the
replacements have been and are being made to improve operational efficiency and
were not accelerated due to the year 2000 issue. In the event that the
implementation of these systems is unexpectedly delayed, Archstone would be
required to make modifications and upgrades to its existing accounting systems
for financial reporting purposes. Management believes that the costs of these
modifications and upgrades would not have a material adverse impact on the
Company's financial position or results of operations. Funds expended to date
to address year 2000 issues have come from operating cash flow. Archstone has
not delayed any material projects as a result of the year 2000 issue.
There can be no assurance that year 2000 remediation by Archstone or third
parties will be properly and timely completed and failure to do so could have a
material adverse effect on Archstone, its business and financial condition.
Archstone cannot predict the actual effects of the year 2000 issue which depends
on numerous uncertainties, many of which are outside its control, such as
whether significant third parties such as banks and utilities address year 2000
issues properly and timely and whether broad-based or systemic economic failures
may occur. Archstone will continue to monitor these issues through its year
2000 compliance program.

Funds From Operations
Archstone believes that funds from operations is helpful to the reader as one
commonly used measure of the performance of an equity real estate investment
trust ("REIT") because, along with cash flow from operating, investing and
financing activities, it provides the reader with an indication of the ability
of Archstone to incur and service debt, to make capital expenditures, to make
Common Share and Preferred Share distributions and to fund other cash needs.
Funds from operations should not be considered as an alternative to net earnings
or any other GAAP measurement of performance as an indicator of Archstone's
operating performance or as an alternative to cash flow from operating,
investing or financing activities as a measure of liquidity. The funds from
operations measure presented by Archstone, while consistent with the National
Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts' definition, will not be comparable
to similarly titled measures of other REIT's that do not compute funds from
operations in a manner consistent with Archstone. Funds from operations is not
intended to represent cash available to shareholders. Cash distributions paid
to shareholders are summarized above in "-Shareholder Dividend/Distribution
Requirements". Funds from operations were as follows (amounts in thousands):

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Archstone is exposed to interest rate changes primarily as a result of its
unsecured credit facilities and other variable rate debt used to finance its
investment activity and maintain financial liquidity. Archstone's interest rate
risk management objective is to limit the impact of interest rate changes on
earnings and cash flows and to lower its overall borrowing costs. To achieve
its objectives, Archstone borrows primarily at fixed rates. Archstone has only
limited involvement with derivative financial instruments and does not use them
for trading purposes. Archstone occasionally utilizes derivative financial
instruments in anticipation of future debt transactions to hedge well-defined
interest rate risk or to manage exposure to variable rate debt.
See Archstone's 1998 Form 10-K "Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative
Disclosures About Market Risk" for a more complete discussion of Archstone's
interest rate sensitive assets and liabilities. As of June 30, 1999, there have
been no material changes in the fair values of assets and liabilities disclosed
in "Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk" in
Archstone's 1998 Form 10-K, as compared to their respective book values. See
"Item 1. Financial Statements, Note 3, Borrowings" for information on
