CREDIT FACILITY

In April 1996, the Company canceled its $150,000 credit facility led by FNBB.
At that time the Company had no outstanding borrowings under the credit
facility. In connection with the cancellation of the credit facility, the
Company recognized an extraordinary loss of $1,306, net of minority interests,
resulting from the write-off of unamortized deferred financing fees.

In June 1996, the Company executed a new $150,000 credit facility (the "Credit
Facility") led by FNBB which was increased to $175,000 in August 1996.
Initially, the Credit Facility has a nine month term with advances bearing
interest at the Eurodollar rate +240 basis points for advances of $2,000 or
more, or at the lender's prime rate plus 50 basis points for advances of less
than $2,000. Upon the occurrence of certain qualifying events, including the
raising of additional equity, the Credit Facility will be unsecured, the term
will be extended by 24 months and interest rate will be reduced to the
Eurodollar rate +185 basis points or, as applicable, the lender's prime rate.
As of September 30, 1996, the interest rate was 7.90% and the outstanding
balance was $172,500 with availability of $2,500. The Credit Facility requires
the Company to maintain compliance with a number of customary financial and
other covenants on an ongoing basis, including loan-to-value and debt service
coverage ratios, limitations on additional indebtedness and stockholders'
distributions, and a minimum net worth requirement. As of September 30, 1996,
the Company was in compliance with all covenants of the Credit Facility. In
October 1996, the Company raised additional equity (see Note 8), which
satisfied the qualifying event and as a result the Credit Facility became
unsecured, the term was extended to March 1999 and the interest rate was
reduced.

5.   MINORITY INTERESTS:

Minority interests represents (i) limited partnership interests in the
Operating Partnership ("units") and (ii) joint venture interests held by
outside interests. Each unit may be exchanged for either one share of common
stock or, at the election of the Company, cash equal to the fair market value
of the share of common stock at the time of the exchange. When a unitholder
exchanges a unit, minority interest will be reduced and the Company's
investment in the Operating Partnership will be increased. During the nine
months ended September 30, 1996, 53,789 units were exchanged for shares of
common stock of the Company.

6.   STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY:

On April 4, 1996, the Company declared a cash dividend and unitholder
distribution of $15,897 or $.55 per share and equivalent unit, to stockholders
and unitholders of record on April 17, 1996 for the quarter ended March 31,
1996. The cash dividend and unitholder distribution were paid on May 1, 1996,
and were equivalent to an annualized distribution of $2.20 per share and
equivalent unit.

On July 3, 1996, the Company declared a cash dividend and unitholder
distribution of $15,884 or $.55 per share and equivalent unit, to shareholders
and unitholders of record on July 17, 1996 for the quarter ended June 30, 1996.
The cash dividend and unitholder distribution were paid on August 6, 1996 and
were equivalent to an annualized distribution of $2.20 per share and equivalent
unit.

On September 13, 1996, the Company declared an approximate 11% increase in
the quarterly dividend, increasing the quarterly cash dividend and distribution
on its common stock and units from $.55 to $.61 per share and equivalent unit
or $25,730. The higher annualized dividend and distribution of $2.44 per share
and equivalent unit commenced with the Company's third quarter payment on
November 5, 1996 to shareholders and unitholders of record on October 16, 1996.

7.  ACQUISITIONS:

On January 5, 1996, the Company acquired 3333 Lee Parkway, a 12-story Class A
office property containing 234,000 square feet of net rentable space located in
the Oak Lawn submarket of Dallas, Texas. The purchase price of 3333 Lee Parkway
was approximately $14,500, which was funded through a draw under the Credit
Facility.




                                      9
<PAGE>   10
On April 18, 1996, the Company together with Aetna Life Insurance Company
("Aetna") formed 301 Congress Avenue, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership in
which the Company and Aetna, each own a 50% interest. Crescent/301, L.L.C., a
Delaware limited liability company that is wholly owned by the Company's
Operating Partnership and CREE, Ltd., serves as the general partner of 301
Congress Avenue, L.P. On April 18, 1996, the partnership acquired from Aetna
301 Congress Avenue, a 22-story Class A office property consisting of 418,000
square feet of net rentable space located in downtown Austin, Texas. The
Company contributed to the partnership approximately $21,635 which was funded
through a short-term note payable to FNBB. Beginning in April 1996, the
operations of the partnership were consolidated into the operations of the
Company.

On June 13, 1996, the Company acquired Central Park Plaza, a Class A office
property consisting of two 15-story towers and containing 410,000 square feet
of net rentable space located in downtown Omaha, Nebraska. The purchase price
of Central Park Plaza was approximately $25,200, which was funded through a
draw under the Credit Facility.

On July 26, 1996, the Company acquired Canyon Ranch-Tucson, a destination
health and fitness resort, located at the base of the Catalina Mountains near
Tucson, Arizona. Canyon Ranch-Tucson encompasses 50 acres, including 179 rooms,
which can accommodate 240 guests on a daily basis, a 62,000 square foot spa
complex, a life enhancement center offering structured therapy and counseling,
a health and healing center with a complete staff of physicians, dietitians,
psychologists and therapists, four pools and eight tennis courts. The Tucson
resort was acquired for approximately $57,000 through the issuance of $27,000
of operating partnership units and assumption of debt which the Company
subsequently retired for $30,000, through a draw under the Credit Facility.

On July 31, 1996, the Woodland Office Equities - '95 Limited ("WOE"), in which
the Company owns a 75% limited partnership interest, acquired two office
properties developed by The Woodlands Corporation consisting of a combined
109,000 square feet of net rentable space located in The Woodlands, a community
25 miles north of Houston, Texas. The purchase price for the two office
properties was approximately $10,915, of which the Company contributed $8,186
to WOE through a draw under the Credit Facility.

On August 16, 1996, the Company acquired for approximately $29,000, which was
funded through a draw under the Credit Facility, the principal economic
interest in Three Westlake Park through its acquisition from the lender of a
mortgage note (the "Three Westlake Note"), in the principal amount of
approximately $46,300. Under the terms of the Three Westlake Note, as modified,
the Company will receive all net cash flow from Three Westlake Park through
February 2004. The Three Westlake Note is secured by a first priority deed of
trust on Three Westlake Park, a 19-story Class A office property containing
approximately 414,000 square feet of net rentable space and located in the Katy
Freeway submarket of Houston, Texas. The operations of the property were
consolidated into the operations of the Company.

On August 23, 1996, the Company acquired 1615 Poydras, a 23-story Class A
office property containing approximately 509,000 square feet of net rentable
space located in downtown New Orleans, Louisiana. The purchase price of 1615
Poydras was approximately $36,450, which was funded through a draw under the
Credit Facility of $24,800 and $11,650 borrowed on the FNBB short term note.

Assuming that the 3333 Lee Parkway, 301 Congress, Central Park Plaza, Canyon
Ranch-Tucson, the two office properties in The Woodlands, Three Westlake Park,
and 1615 Poydras were acquired at the beginning of the periods, pro forma
operating results are presented as follows:

</TABLE>

The pro forma operating results combine the Company's historical operating
results with the historical incremental rental income and operating expenses
including an adjustment for depreciation based on the acquisition price 
associated with the property acquisitions and pro forma adjustments. The
historical operations of the destination resort were adjusted to reflect the
lease payments from the Hotel Lessee to the Company calculated on a pro forma
basis by applying the rent provisions (as defined in the lease agreement). Pro
forma adjustments primarily represent the increase in interest costs assuming
the borrowings to finance property acquisitions had occurred at the beginning of
the period.

These pro forma amounts are not necessarily indicative of what the actual
financial position of the Company would have been assuming the above property
acquisitions had been consummated as of the beginning of the periods, nor do
they purport to represent the future financial position of the Company.

8.  SUBSEQUENT EVENTS:

On October 2, 1996, the Company completed an offering (the "Offering) of
11,500,000 shares (including the underwriters' overallotment option) of its
common stock at $40.375 per share. Net proceeds from the Offering to the
Company after underwriting discount of $24,380 and other offering costs of
approximately $2,500 were approximately $437,433. The Company used a portion of
these net proceeds to repay $16,000 on the FNBB short-term note and $151,500 of
the Credit Facility. In addition, net proceeds of $66,000 were used to fund the
cash portion of the purchase price of the Greenway Plaza Portfolio (as
described below). The remaining net proceeds of $203,993 will be used to fund
future acquisitions. On October 9, 1996, the Company completed an additional
offering of 450,000 shares of its common stock to several underwriters who
participated in the Offering. The shares of common stock were sold at $42 per
share. The gross proceeds of $18,900 from the additional offering will be used
to fund future acquisitions.

On October 7, 1996, the Company through three newly formed subsidiaries,
Crescent Real Estate Funding III, IV and V, L.P. ("Funding III, IV, and V"),
limited partnerships in which the Operating Partnership owns substantially all
the economic interests directly, and the remaining interests which are owned
indirectly by the Company through CRE Management III, IV and V Corp. which are
the general partners of Funding III, IV and V, respectively, and are all wholly
owned subsidiaries of CREE, Ltd., acquired a property portfolio located in
Houston, Texas (the "Greenway Plaza Portfolio"). The Greenway Plaza Portfolio
consists primarily of 10 suburban office properties with an aggregate of
approximately 4.3 million net rentable square feet, a central plant which
provides heated and chilled water to both the 10 office properties and third
parties, and the 389-room full-service Renaissance Hotel and the Houston City
Club building, which are both subject to triple-net leases. Funding III owns 9
office properties, Renaissance Hotel and the Houston City Club. Funding IV owns
the central plant. Funding V owns one office property. The aggregate cost of the
Greenway Plaza Portfolio was $206,000, which was funded through the issuance of
599,332 shares of common stock at an average price of $41.71 per share, the
assumption of $115,000 of nonrecourse indebtedness and $66,000 of cash from
proceeds of the Offering.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
         HISTORICAL RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The changes in operating results from period to period are primarily the result
of increases in the total square feet of the portfolio due to significant
acquisitions made by Crescent Real Estate Equities, Inc. through its direct and
indirect subsidiaries (collectively, the "Company"). The weighted average
square feet of consolidated properties for the three and nine months ended
September 30, 1996 were approximately 10.3 and 9.4 million, respectively,
compared to 6.9 and 5.9 million for the same periods in 1995. These increases
in consolidated properties square feet represent a 49.3% and 59.3% increase in
square feet for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1996,
respectively, compared to the same periods in 1995.

This Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of
Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1993 and Section 21E of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934. Although the Company believes that the expectations
reflected in such forward-looking statements are based upon reasonable
assumptions, the Company's actual results could differ materially from those
set forth in the forward-looking statements. Certain factors that might cause
such a difference include the following: real estate investment considerations,
such as the effect of economic, demographic, competitive and other conditions
in the market area on cash flows and values, the ability to renew leases or
relet space on a timely basis upon the expiration of current leases, and the
Company's ability to generate revenues sufficient to meet debt service payments
and other operating expenses; and financing risks, such as the availability of
equity and debt financing, the Company's ability to service existing debt, the
possibility that the Company's outstanding debt (which requires so-called
balloon payments of principal) may be refinanced at higher interest rates or
otherwise on terms less favorable to the Company and the fact that interest
rates under the Credit Facility may increase.

This information should be read in conjunction with the accompanying
consolidated financial statements and notes thereto. These financial statements
include all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to
reflect a fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented, and
all such adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1996 AND 1995

Revenues from rental properties increased approximately $15.2 million, or
45.9%, to $48.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 1996, as
compared to $33.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 1995. This
increase is primarily attributable to the acquisition of: a) five office
properties and one full-service hotel in the fourth quarter of 1995 which
resulted in $6.8 million of incremental revenues; b) seven office properties
and one destination health and fitness resort in the first three quarters of
1996 which resulted in $6.7 million of incremental revenues; and c) $1.0
million of incremental rental revenue is due to a net increase in rental rates
and occupancies in office properties acquired prior to the fourth quarter of
1995.

Total expenses increased $15.8 million, or 61.0%, to $41.7 million for the
three months ended September 30, 1996, as compared to $25.9 million for the
three months ended September 30, 1995. An increase in rental property operating
expenses of $5.3 million is primarily attributable to the acquisition of: a)
five office properties and one full- service hotel in the fourth quarter of
1995 which resulted in $2.4 million of incremental expenses; and b) seven
office properties and one destination health and fitness resort in the first
three quarters of 1996 which resulted in $2.3 million of incremental expenses.
Depreciation and amortization increased $3.7 million primarily due to the
property acquisitions subsequent to September 30, 1995. An increase in interest
expense of $6.7 million is primarily attributable to interest payable under the
terms of the three long-term financing arrangements entered into between August
1995 and March 1996, proceeds of which were used to repay the Credit Facility
and to fund property acquisitions in 1995 and 1996. An increase in corporate
general and administrative of $.1 million was attributable to incremental costs
associated with the corporate operations of the Company as a direct result of
recent property additions to the Company's portfolio.

<PAGE>   13
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1996 AND 1995

Revenues from rental properties increased approximately $49.5 million, or
58.6%, to $133.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1996, as
compared to $84.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1995. This
increase is primarily attributable to the acquisition of: a) 15 office
properties and two full-service hotels during the nine months ended September
30, 1995 which resulted in $19.1 million of incremental revenues; b) five
office properties and one full-service hotel in the fourth quarter of 1995
which resulted in $20.6 million of incremental revenues; and c) seven office
properties and one destination resort in 1996 which resulted in $9.7 million of
incremental revenues.

The decrease in interest and other income of $1.5 million is primarily due to
the sale of the co-investment rights in the Ritz-Carlton Hotel Company in the
second quarter of 1995, resulting in a $2.3 million gain, compared to the sale
of marketable securities in the second quarter of 1996, resulting in a $.7
million gain.

Total expenses increased $47.1 million, or 70.6%, to $113.8 million for the
nine months ended September 30, 1996, as compared to $66.7 million for the nine
months ended September 30, 1995. An increase in rental property operating
expenses of $16.9 million, is primarily attributable to the acquisition of: a)
15 office properties and two full- service hotels during the nine months ended
September 30, 1995 which resulted in $5.5 million of incremental expenses; b)
five office properties and one full-service hotel in the fourth quarter of 1995
which resulted in $7.4 million of incremental expenses; and c) seven office
properties and one destination resort in 1996 which resulted in $4.0 million of
incremental expenses. Depreciation and amortization increased $10.0 million
primarily due to the property acquisitions during the nine months ended
September 30, 1995, and subsequent to September 30, 1995. An increase in
interest expense of $19.5 million is primarily attributable to $24.7 million of
interest payable under the terms of the three long-term financing arrangements
entered into between August 1995 and March 1996, proceeds of which were used to
repay the Credit Facility and to fund property acquisitions in 1995 and 1996
offset by the decrease of interest expense of $5.2 million for the Credit
Facility. An increase in corporate general and administrative of $.7 million
was attributable to incremental costs associated with the corporate operations
of the Company as a direct result of recent property additions to the Company's
portfolio.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Cash and cash equivalents were $14.4 million and $16.9 million at September 30,
1996 and December 31, 1995, respectively. The decrease is attributable to $221.4
million used in investing activities, offset by $169.3 million and $49.6 million
of cash provided by financing and operating activities, respectively. The
Company utilized $221.4 million of cash flow primarily in the following
investing activities: (i) the acquisition of seven office properties and one
destination resort, ($173.1 million); (ii) additional investments in Residential
Development Corporations ($15.0 million); (iii) capital expenditures - rental
properties ($8.4 million) primarily attributable to tenant and building
improvements ($6.1 million); (iv) tenant leasing costs ($4.8 million); (v) notes
receivable ($11.5 million) primarily attributable to Canyon Ranch-Tucson Hotel
Lessee ($3.0 million) and Crescent Development Management Corp. ($5.0 million);
and (vi) acquisition escrow deposits ($6.4 million) primarily attributable to
the Greenway Plaza Portfolio acquisition ($5.0 million). The cash inflow from
operating activities is primarily attributable to property operations partially
offset by both the increase in accounts receivable which is due to (i) recent
property acquisitions and (ii) the hotel lessee's percentage rent lease payments
which are remitted quarterly and by an increase in other assets. The Company's
inflow of cash provided by financing activities is primarily attributable to
proceeds received from the long-term financing arrangements with Nomura Asset
Securities Corporation ("Nomura") and Connecticut General Life Insurance Company
("CIGNA") ($105.6 million), the Credit Facility and short-term note payable to
FNBB ($191.5 million), which amounts were partially offset by the repayment of
the short-term note payable to FNBB ($57.2 million), the pay-off and
cancellation of the prior credit facility ($20.0 million) and the distributions
paid to stockholders and unitholders ($47.6 million).

On October 2, 1996, the Company completed an offering (the "Offering") of
11,500,000 shares (including the underwriters' overallotment option) of its
common stock at $40.375 per share (gross proceeds of




                                      13
<PAGE>   14
$464.3 million). Net proceeds from the Offering to the Company after
underwriting discount of $24.4 million and other offering costs of
approximately $2.5 million were approximately $437.4 million. The Company used
a portion of these net proceeds to repay $16.0 million on the FNBB short term
note and $151.5 million of the Credit Facility. In addition, net proceeds of
$66.0 million were used to fund the cash portion of the purchase price of the
Greenway Plaza Portfolio. The remaining net proceeds of $204.0 million will be
used to fund future acquisitions. On October 9, 1996, the Company completed an
additional offering of 450,000 shares of its common stock to several
underwriters who participated in the Offering. The shares of common stock were
sold at $42 per share. The gross proceeds of $18.9 million from the additional
offering will be used to fund future acquisitions.

(a) The Company executed a new $150 million credit facility led by The First
    National Bank of Boston which was increased to $175 million in August 1996.
    Initially, the term is nine months and with advances bearing interest at
    the Eurodollar rate +240 basis points for advances of $2.0 million or more,
    or at the lender's prime rate plus 50 basis points for advances of less
    than $2.0 million. Upon the occurrence of certain qualifying events,
    including the raising of additional equity, the Credit Facility will be
    unsecured, the term will be extended by 24 months and interest rate will be
    reduced to the Eurodollar rate +185 basis points or, as applicable, the
    lender's prime rate. In October 1996, the Company raised additional equity,
    which satisfied the qualifying event, and as a result, the Credit Facility
    became unsecured, the term was extended to March 1999 and the interest rate
    was reduced.

(b) The note has a seven-year period during which only interest is payable
    (through August 2002), followed by five years of principal amortization
    based on a 25-year amortization schedule through maturity. At the end of 12
    years (August 2007), the interest rate increases, and the Company is
    required to remit, in addition to the monthly debt service payment, excess
    property cash flow, as defined, to be applied first against principal until
    the note is paid in full and thereafter, against accrued excess interest,
    as defined. It is the Company's intention to repay the note in full at such
    time (August 2007) by making a final payment of approximately $220 million.
    Nomura Note I is secured by The Aberdeen, The Avallon, Caltex House, The
    Citadel, Continental Plaza, The Crescent Atrium, The Crescent Office
    Towers, Regency Plaza One and Waterside Commons.

(c) The note has a seven-year period during which only interest is payable
    (through March 2003), followed by three years of principal amortization
    based on a 25-year amortization schedule through maturity. At the end of 10
    years (March 2006), the interest rate increases, and the Company is
    required to remit, in addition to the monthly debt service payment, excess
    property cash flow, as defined, to be applied first against principal until
    the note is paid in full and thereafter, against accrued excess interest,
    as defined. It is the Company's intention to repay the note in full at such
    time (March 2006) by making a final payment of approximately $154 million.
    Nomura Note II is secured by Albuquerque Plaza, Barton Oaks Plaza One,
    Briargate Office and Research Center, Hyatt Regency Albuquerque, Hyatt
    Regency Beaver Creek, Las Colinas Plaza, Liberty Plaza I & II, MacArthur
    Center I & II, Ptarmigan Place, Stanford Corporate Centre, Two Renaissance
    Square and 12404 Park Central.

(d) The note requires payments of interest only during its term, with a final
    payment due in December 2002 of approximately $63.5 million. The CIGNA Note
    is secured by MCI Tower and Denver Marriott City Center.

(e) The note requires monthly payments of principal and interest and is secured
    by five of the Office Properties within The Woodlands.

The Company expects to meet its short-term liquidity requirements primarily
through cash flow provided by operating activities, which the Company believes
will be adequate to fund normal recurring operating expenses, debt service
requirements, non-incremental revenue generating capital expenditures and
distributions to stockholders and unitholders. To the extent the Company's cash
flow from operating activities is not sufficient to finance incremental
revenue-generating capital expenditures (including additions to or replacements
of residential lots), or investment property acquisition costs, the Company
expects to finance such activities with proceeds available under the Credit
Facility, available cash reserves and other debt and equity financing.

The Company expects to meet its long-term liquidity requirements, consisting
primarily of maturities under the Credit Facility, CIGNA Note and Nomura Notes,
through long-term secured and unsecured borrowings and the issuance of debt
securities and/or additional equity securities of the Company.

Based on the Company's total market capitalization of $1.9 billion at September
30, 1996 (at a $41.125 stock price, which was the closing price of the common
stock on the NYSE on September 30, 1996, and including the full conversion of
all units of minority interest in the Operating Partnership plus total
indebtedness), the Company's debt represented 35% of its total market
capitalization. After the completion of the October Offerings, repayment of
debt and Greenway Plaza Portfolio acquisition, the Company's total market
capitalization was $2.4 billion (at a $43.25 stock price, which was the closing
of the common stock on the NYSE on November 11, 1996, and including the full
conversion of all units of minority interest in the Operating Partnership plus
total indebtedness) and debt represented a 25.1% of its total market
capitalization. The Company intends to maintain a conservative capital
structure with total debt targeted at 40% of total market capitalization.

The Company intends to maintain its qualification as a real estate investment
trust ("REIT") under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the
"Code"). As a REIT, the Company will generally not be subject to corporate
federal income taxes as long as it satisfies certain technical requirements of
the Code, including the requirement to distribute 95% of its taxable income to
its shareholders.

FUNDS FROM OPERATIONS

Funds from Operations ("FFO"), based on the revised definition adopted by the
Board of Governors of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts
("NAREIT") and as used herein, means net income (loss) (determined in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles or "GAAP"), excluding
gains (or losses) from debt restructuring and sales of property, plus
depreciation and amortization of real estate assets, and after adjustments for
unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. FFO was developed by NAREIT as
a relative measure of performance and liquidity of an equity REIT in order to
recognize that income-producing real estate historically has not depreciated on
the basis determined under GAAP. The Company considers FFO an appropriate
measure of performance of an equity REIT. However, FFO (i) does not represent
cash generated from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP
(which, unlike FFO, generally reflects all cash effects of transactions and
other events that enter into the determination of net income), (ii) is not
necessarily indicative of cash flow available to fund cash needs and (iii)
should not be considered as an alternative to net income determined in
accordance with GAAP as an indication of the Company's operating performance,
or to cash flow from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP as
a measure of either liquidity or the Company's ability to make distributions.
The Company has historically distributed an amount less than FFO, primarily due
to reserves required for capital expenditures, including leasing costs. The
aggregate distributions paid to stockholders and unitholders for the nine
months ended September 30, 1996 and 1995 were $47.6 and $36.9 million,
respectively. An increase in FFO does not necessarily result in an increase in
aggregate distributions because the Company's board of directors is not
required to increase distributions on a quarterly basis unless necessary in
order to enable the Company to maintain REIT status. Because the Company must
distribute 95% of its real estate investment trust taxable income (as defined
in the Code), however, a significant increase in FFO will generally require an
increase in distributions to stockholders and unitholders although not
necessarily on a proportionate basis. Accordingly, the Company believes that in
order to facilitate a clear understanding of the consolidated historical
operating results of the Company, FFO should be considered in conjunction with
the Company's net income (loss) and cash flows as reported in the consolidated
financial statements and notes thereto. However, the Company's measure of FFO
may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other REIT's because
these REIT's may not apply to the modified definition of FFO in the same manner
as the Company.
