(1)  These Shares are owned of record by Security Capital Realty Incorporated.
     SECAP REALTY Incorporated, a wholly owned subsidiary of Security Capital
     Group Incorporated, is the REIT Manager of Security Capital Realty
     Incorporated. SECAP REALTY Incorporated and Security Capital Group
     Incorporated may therefore be deemed to share voting and dispositive power
     with respect to these Shares. Mr. Sanders may also be deemed to
     beneficially own these Shares, because he shares voting and dispositive
     power with respect to all Shares owned by Security Capital Realty
     Incorporated. Security Capital Realty Incorporated and Mr. Sanders intend
     to play a major role in the direction of SCI for the purpose of maximizing
     the value of SCI.

(2)  107,603 of these Shares (0.30% of all Shares) are owned by Mr. Sanders
     directly.  Mr. Sanders may be deemed to beneficially own 66,206 of these
     Shares (0.18% of all Shares) that are owned of record by CAMPR Partners,
     LTD, a family entity of which Mr. Sanders is general partner and with
     respect to which he shares voting and dispositive power.

ITEM 6.   CONTRACTS, ARRANGEMENTS, UNDERSTANDINGS OR RELATIONSHIPS WITH RESPECT
TO SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER

          SCI and REALTY are parties to an Investor Agreement, dated as of
November 18, 1993 (the "Investor Agreement"), which required REALTY to invest a
minimum of $75 million in SCI's December 1993 private offering, subject to
certain conditions. The Investor Agreement, among other things, requires SCI to
obtain REALTY's approval of (i) SCI's annual operating budget and substantial
deviations therefrom, (ii) contracts for investment management, property
management or leasing services or that contemplate annual payments in excess of
$100,000 and (iii) acquisitions or dispositions in a single transaction or a
group of related transactions where the purchase price exceeds $5 million. The
Investor Agreement also provides that, so long as REALTY owns at least 10% of
SCI's outstanding securities, SCI may not increase its Board of Trustees to more
than seven members. REALTY is entitled to designate one or more persons as
Trustees, and SCI is obligated to use its best efforts to cause the election of
such persons as follows: (i) so long as REALTY owns at least 10% but less than
20% of the outstanding Shares, it is entitled to nominate two persons; and (ii)
so long as REALTY owns at least 20% of the outstanding Shares, it is entitled to
nominate three persons. A copy of the Investor Agreement is filed as Exhibit B
hereto.

          SCI's Amended and Restated Declaration of Trust restricts ownership of
SCI's outstanding Shares by a single person, or persons acting as a group, to
9.8% of such Shares. The purposes of this provision are to assist in preserving
SCI's REIT status and to protect the interests of SCI's shareholders in takeover
transactions by preventing the acquisition of a substantial block of Shares
unless the acquiror makes a cash tender offer for all outstanding Shares. SCI's
Board of Trustees has exempted REALTY from this restriction. A copy of the
Amended and Restated Declaration of Trust is filed as Exhibit C hereto.

ITEM 7.   MATERIAL TO BE FILED AS EXHIBITS

          The following are filed as exhibits: a written agreement relating to
the filing of the joint acquisition statement, a copy of the Investor Agreement
dated as of November 19, 1993 between SCI and REALTY, and a copy of SCI's
Amended and Restated Declaration of Trust.

                               PURCHASE AGREEMENT

     THIS PURCHASE AGREEMENT (this "Agreement") is made and entered into as of
August 20, 1996, by and between Security Capital Industrial Trust, a Maryland

Incorporated, a Maryland corporation ("Parent"), and SC Realty Incorporated, a
Maryland corporation (the "Purchaser").

     WHEREAS, the Purchaser desires to purchase additional common shares of
beneficial interest, $.01 par value per share, of the Company (the "Shares") in
the Company's proposed public rights offering (the "Offering"); and

     WHEREAS, the Purchaser is willing to purchase such Shares upon the terms
and conditions set forth herein;

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and of the mutual
representations, warranties and agreements contained herein, the parties hereto
agree as follows:

     1.  Purchase of Shares.  Subject to the terms and conditions set forth
herein, the Purchaser agrees to fully exercise the rights initially issued to it
to purchase 3,279,374 Shares in the Offering, and Parent agrees to take all
action required to be taken by it in connection with such exercise of rights by
the Purchaser.

     2.  Representations and Warranties of the Company.  The Company hereby
represents and warrants to the Purchaser and Parent as follows:

         (a) Due Organization and Qualification. The Company is a real estate
investment trust duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the
laws of the State of Maryland, with full power to own its properties and to
conduct its business as now conducted. The Company is duly qualified to do
business, and is in good standing, in each jurisdiction where such qualification
is required, except where the failure to so qualify will not have a material
adverse effect on the Company and its subsidiaries taken as a whole.

         (b) Authorization. The Company has the requisite power to enter into
this Agreement and to carry out its obligations hereunder. This Agreement has
been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Company and constitutes a
valid and binding agreement of the Company enforceable in accordance with its
terms, except to the extent that its enforceability may be limited by applicable
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other laws affecting the enforcement
of creditors' rights generally or by general equitable principles and except as
the enforceability of rights to indemnification or contribution hereunder may be
limited by applicable federal or state securities laws or rules. Neither the
execution and delivery of this Agreement, the consummation of the transactions
contemplated hereby, nor compliance with the terms, conditions or provisions of
this Agreement will result in a violation or breach of any of the terms,
conditions or provisions of the Company's Amended and Restated Declaration of
Trust,

as amended and supplemented (the "Declaration of Trust"), or bylaws or any
material agreement or instrument to which the Company is a party or by which the
Company or any of its properties is bound, or constitute a default or create a
right of termination or acceleration thereunder, or result in the creation or
imposition of any security interest, mortgage, lien, charge or encumbrance of
any nature whatsoever upon the Company or any of its properties or assets, which
in any such case would have a material adverse effect on the Company and its
subsidiaries taken as a whole.

          (c) Issuance. The Shares, when sold and delivered by the Company to
the Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement, will be duly authorized, validly
issued and, when paid for, will be fully paid and, except as described in the

validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Nevada,
with full power to own its properties and to conduct its business as now
conducted. Parent is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good
standing under the laws of the State of Maryland, with full power to own its
properties and to conduct its business as now conducted.

          (b) Authorization. Each of the Purchaser and Parent has the requisite
power to enter into this Agreement and to carry out its obligations hereunder.
This Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Purchaser
and Parent and constitutes a valid and binding agreement of the Purchaser and
Parent enforceable in accordance with its terms, except to the extent that its
enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization or other laws affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights
generally or by general equitable principles and except as the enforceability of
rights to indemnification or contribution hereunder may be limited by applicable
federal or state securities laws or rules. Neither the execution and delivery of
this Agreement, the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, nor
compliance with the terms, conditions or provisions of this Agreement will
result in a violation or breach of any of the terms, conditions or provisions of
the Purchaser's or Parent's charter or bylaws.
