                        CORPORATE OFFICE PROPERTIES TRUST
             PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATING FINANCIAL INFORMATION

The following sets forth the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidating balance
sheet of Corporate Office Properties Trust and its consolidated affiliates,
including Corporate Office Properties, L.P. (the "Operating Partnership") as of
September 30, 1998, and the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidating
statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 1997 and the nine-month
period ended September 30, 1998 of the Company (as defined below). Corporate
Office Properties Trust and its consolidated affiliates, including the Operating
Partnership, are collectively referred to herein as the "Company."

In October 1997, the Operating Partnership acquired partnership interests in a
portfolio of ten properties (the "Initial Office Properties"), representing the
Mid-Atlantic suburban office operations of The Shidler Group, subject to $100
million of indebtedness (the "Term Credit Facility"). At that time, the Company
became the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership, which was formed
to acquire and hold the Initial Office Properties. In connection with the
acquisition of the Initial Office Properties, the Company issued 600,000 of its
common shares of beneficial interest ("Common Shares") and the Operating
Partnership issued (or committed to issue) 3,181,818 common partnership units
("Common Units") and 2.1 million preferred partnership units ("Preferred Units"
or "Preferred 1997 Units").

The acquisition of the Initial Office Properties is reflected in the Company's
historical consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 1998, and is included
in the pro forma condensed consolidating statements of operations as if it
occurred on January 1, 1997.

The pro forma condensed consolidating financial information is presented as if
the following transactions had been consummated on the earlier of the actual
date of consummation or September 30, 1998 for balance sheet purposes, and at
the beginning of the period presented for purposes of the statements of
operations:

- -        The consummation of a public offering (the "Offering") on April 27,
         1998, in which the Company issued 7,500,000 Common Shares at $10.50 per
         share and contributed all of the net proceeds to the Operating
         Partnership in exchange for 7,500,000 Common Units.

- -        The acquisition of nine multistory office buildings and three
         office/flex buildings (the "Airport Square Properties") on April 30,
         1998.

- -        The acquisition of two office properties (the "Fairfield Properties")
         on May 28, 1998.

- -        The closing of a $100 million, two-year-senior revolving credit
         facility (the "Revolving Credit Facility") on May 28, 1998 and the
         borrowing of $23,750,000 under the Revolving Credit Facility to pay a
         portion of the consideration for the Fairfield Properties.

- -        The acquisition by the Company on September 28, 1998, from various
         parties (collectively, "Constellation") of interests in (i) 10 office
         and 2 retail properties (the "Constellation Properties"); (ii) a 75%
         ownership interest in a real estate management services entity; and
         (iii) certain equipment, furniture and other assets related to
         management operations ((ii) and (iii) collectively, the "Constellation
         Service Companies") for: (a) issuance by the Company of 865,566
         non-voting Series A 

                                    F-2

<PAGE>

         Convertible Preferred Shares of Beneficial Interest, $0.01 par value,
         $25.00 liquidation preference ("Preferred Shares") and 6,182,634 Common
         Shares; (b) the assumption of debt aggregating $58,085,000 (net of
         $1,475,000 in debt repaid at settlement); (c) utilization of loan
         proceeds from the Revolving Credit Facility of $2,100,000, and (d) the
         payment of $2,485,000 in cash (including $1,475,000 of debt repaid at
         settlement). The foregoing is referred to herein as the "Constellation
         Transaction."

- -        The acquisition by the Company on October 22, 1998, from Constellation
         of an interest in a newly-constructed office property (the "Woodlands
         One Property") for: (a) issuance by the Company of 72,509 Preferred
         Shares and 517,923 Common Shares; (b) the assumption of debt
         aggregating $9,533,000; and (c) the payment of $1,144,000 in cash.

- -        The acquisition by the Company on October 13, 1998, from an unrelated
         party of an interest in an office property ("Riverwood Property") for:
         (a) issuance by the Company of 148,381 Common Units; and (b) the
         utilization of loan proceeds from the Revolving Credit Facility of
         $18,842,000.

- -        The closing of an $85,000,000, ten-year nonrecourse loan (the "TIAA
         Loan") on October 22, 1998 and the borrowing of $76,200,000 under this
         loan.

- -        The contribution by the Company of all the assets acquired in the
         Constellation Transaction, including the Woodlands One Property, to the
         Operating Partnership in exchange for 6,700,557 Common Units and
         938,075 preferred partnership units ("Preferred Units" or "Preferred
         1998 Units").

- -        The acquisition by the Company on November 13, 1998, from
         Constellation interests in entities which own two office properties
         currently under construction (the "Constellation Construction
         Properties") for: (a) the assumption of debt aggregating $2,000,000;
         and (b) the utilization of loan proceeds from the Revolving Credit
         Facility of $5,200,000.

The accompanying pro forma condensed consolidating financial information does
not include the effects of the acquisition of one office and one retail property
(one of which is newly constructed and one of which is under construction) as
the Company has not consummated these acquisitions as of December 11, 1998.

This pro forma condensed consolidating financial information should be read in
conjunction with the historical financial statements of the Company and those of
the Initial Office Properties, the Airport Square Properties, the Fairfield
Properties, the Riverwood Property, the Constellation Properties and the
Constellation Service Companies. In management's opinion, all adjustments
necessary to reflect the effects of the consummated transactions have been made.
This pro forma condensed consolidating financial information is unaudited and is
not necessarily indicative of what the actual financial position would have been
at September 30, 1998, nor does it purport to represent the future financial
position and the results of operations of the Company.

         1997 Units) or 5.5% (Preferred 1998 Units) of their investment on a
         pari passu basis with remaining income, if any, or loss allocated
         between the Company (84.4%) and the remaining partners (15.6%). The

                                     -------



November 17, 1998

To Corporate Office Properties Trust:

We have audited the accompanying statement of revenue and certain expenses of
the Riverwood Acquisition Property (the "Property") as described in Note 1 for
the year ended December 31, 1997. This financial statement is the responsibility
of the Property's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on
this financial statement based on our audit.

We conducted our audit 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 statement is free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statement. 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 audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

The accompanying statement of revenue and certain expenses was prepared for the
purpose of complying with the rules and regulations of the Securities and
Exchange Commission as described in Note 2, and is not intended to be a complete
presentation of the Property's revenues and expenses.

In our opinion, the financial statement referred to above presents fairly, in
all material respects, the revenues and certain expenses as described in Note 2
of the Property for the year ended December 31, 1997, in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.

                         RIVERWOOD ACQUISITION PROPERTY
                    STATEMENT OF REVENUE AND CERTAIN EXPENSES
                      for the year ended December 31, 1997
                                     -------


1.       Business:

         The accompanying statement of revenue and certain expenses relates to
         the operation of Riverwood Acquisition Property (the "Property"),
         consisting of the revenues and certain expenses of a building known as
         Parcel A in the Rivers Corporate Park, 7200 Riverwood Drive, Columbia,
         Maryland 21046, being a separately divided parcel of approximately
         twenty acres located in Howard County, Maryland, which contains a
         single story one hundred and sixty thousand square foot building.


2.       Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:

         Basis of Presentation:

         The accompanying statement of revenue and certain expenses was prepared
         for the purpose of complying with the rules and regulations of the
         Securities and Exchange Commission. The statement is not representative
         of the actual operations of the Property for the period presented nor
         indicative of future operations as certain expenses, primarily
         depreciation, amortization, interest expense and ground rent, which may
         not be comparable to the expenses expected to be incurred by Corporate
         Office Properties Trust in future operations of the Property, have been
         excluded.

         Revenue and Expense Recognition:

         Revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the
         related lease. Expenses are recognized in the period in which they are
         incurred.

         Use of Estimates:

         The preparation of this financial statement in conformity with
         generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make
         estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenue
         and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ
         from these estimates.

         Major Tenant:

         During 1997, the United States Government was the sole tenant of the 
         Riverwood property under a cancelable monthly lease agreement. See also
         Note 3.

         United States Government on January 1, 1998 that provides for the
         tenant to share in the operating and real estate taxes on a pro rata
         basis, as defined in the lease, with an expiration date of December 31,
