                   NOTES TO THE PRO FORMA FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (UNAUDITED)



1.    Basis of Presentation.

The pro forma financial statements of TriNet Corporate Realty Trust, Inc. (the
"Company"), which are unaudited, have been prepared based on the historical
financial statements of the Company. The accompanying unaudited pro forma
consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 1997, has been prepared as if the
acquisitions between May 19, 1997 and June 30, 1997 of the Sunbelt Property, the
Frontier II Property, the Charleston Place Properties, the Bay State Gas
Property, and the Warner Crossing Properties, (collectively, the "Acquired
Properties"), and the sale of a property located in Malvern, Pennsylvania (the
"Disposition Property") on May 20, 1997, had occurred on March 31, 1997. The pro
forma consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended March 31,
1997 and for the year ended December 31, 1996 have been prepared as if the
acquisitions of the Acquired Properties and the sale of the Disposition Property
had occurred on January 1, 1996.

In management's opinion, all adjustments necessary to reflect the effects of
these transactions have been made. The pro forma financial statements should be
read in conjunction with the historical financial statements of the Company. The
pro forma financial statements are not necessarily indicative of what the
financial condition or results of operations of the Company would have been as
of and for the three months ended March 31, 1997 or for the year ended December
31, 1996 had the acquisitions of the Acquired Properties and the sale of the
Disposition Property actually occurred on the dates indicated, nor do they
purport to represent the financial condition or results of operations for future
periods.


2.    Pro Forma Adjustments.

      A.    Reflects the purchase of the Acquired Properties that occurred
            subsequent to March 31, 1997.

      B.    Reflects the sale of the Disposition Property.

      C.    Additional rental revenue is attributable to the Acquired
            Properties.

      D.    Additional interest expense is calculated to reflect the draw amount
            of approximately $108.4 million on the Company's Acquisition
            Facility in connection with the acquisition of the Acquired
            Properties, computed at the weighted average interest rate in effect
            under the Acquisition Facility during the year ended December 31,
            1996 or three months ended March 31, 1997.

      E.    Additional depreciation expense is calculated to reflect
            depreciation attributable to the Acquired Properties. Depreciation
            is computed using the straight-line method of cost recovery over 40
            years for building and improvements.

      F.    Decreased rental revenue is attributable to the sale of the
            Disposition Property.

                                  (UNAUDITED)



      G.    Decrease in interest expense is attributable to the use of the
            proceeds from the sale of the Disposition Property to pay-down the
            Acquisition Facility, computed at the weighted average interest rate
            in effect under the Acquisition Facility during the year ended
            December 31, 1996 or three months ended March 31, 1997.

      H.    Decreased depreciation is attributable to the sale of the
            Disposition Property. Depreciation is computed using the
            straight-line method of cost recovery over 40 years for building and
            improvements.

Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable

believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

The accompanying Historical Summary was prepared for the purpose of complying

                   NOTE TO HISTORICAL SUMMARY OF GROSS INCOME
            FOR THE PERIOD OCTOBER 30, 1996 THROUGH DECEMBER 31, 1996


A.    Property and Basis of Accounting

      The accompanying Historical Summary of Gross Income (the "Historical
      Summary") has been prepared in accordance with Rule 3-14 of Regulation S-X
      of the Securities and Exchange Commission and relates to the operations of
      the Charleston Place Properties (the "Properties"). The Properties consist
      of three two-story office buildings comprising 187,380 square feet
      located in Mountain View, California.

      The Properties are 100% net leased to U.S. Robotics Access Corp., a
      subsidiary of U.S. Robotics Corporation (which recently merged with 3Com
      Corporation) and Sun Microsystems, Inc. The two leases expire in October
      2006. U.S. Robotics Access Corp. has occupied two of the buildings since
      October 30, 1996, and accordingly, the Historical Summary presents only
      the period October 30, 1996 through December 31, 1996. The lease
      agreement with Sun Microsystems, Inc. commenced November 1, 1996. The 
      lease agreements provide for both tenants to pay all expenses associated
      with their respective properties.

      Included in gross income is $88,908 resulting from the straight-line
      adjustment for differences between straight-line rents and contractual
      rent payments.
