Property Acquisitions.  From February 18, 1997 through March 21, 1997, TriNet
Corporate Realty Trust, Inc. ("the Company") acquired nine properties (the
"Acquired Properties") for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $148.5
million, plus aggregate acquisition costs of approximately $1.2 million.  As of
March 21, 1997, the Company's portfolio consisted of 88 properties.  The
Acquired Properties are described below.  Neither the Company, any subsidiary
of the Company, nor any director or officer of the Company was affiliated with
or had a material relationship with the seller of any property described below.

         IBM Dallas.  On February 18, 1997, TriNet Corporate Partners II, L. P.
         ("TCPII"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, purchased a
         222,267 square foot operations center leased to International Business
         Machines Corporation ("IBM") located in Dallas, Texas (the "IBM Dallas
         Property") from WHC-Six Real Estate Limited Partnership, a Delaware
         limited partnership, for a purchase price of approximately $9.9
         million. TCPII acquired a fee title interest in the IBM Dallas
         Property.  The purchase price for the IBM Dallas Property was funded
         by a $9.5 million draw on the Company's $200.0 million unsecured
         revolving credit facility ("the Acquisition Facility") with a group of
         11 banks for which Morgan Guaranty Trust Company of New York is the
         lead agent and The First National Bank of Boston is the managing
         co-agent, with the remainder being funded from working capital.

         Georgia (the "RiverEdge Summit Property") from Gateway Georgia
         Properties, Inc., a California corporation, for a purchase price of
         $60.0 million.  The RiverEdge Summit Property includes structured
         parking and additional land for the development of a third building of
         approximately 250,000 square feet.  TriNet XXIII acquired a fee title 
         interest in the RiverEdge Summit Property.  The Company used proceeds
         from the common stock offering completed in February 1997
         (the "February Offering") to fund this acquisition.  The RiverEdge
         Summit Property is 100% leased to the following four tenants with IBM

         Center Properties.  The purchase price was funded by approximately

         million draw on the Acquisition Facility, with the remainder being
         funded from working capital.  The Canyon Corporate Center Properties
