                        REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS


To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
Beacon Properties Corporation:

We have audited the accompanying statement of excess of revenues over specific
operating expenses of 10880 Wilshire Boulevard in Westwood, California (the
"Property") for the year ended December 31, 1996. 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 statement of excess of revenues over specific
operating expenses is free of material misstatement. An audit includes
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in
the 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.

As described in Note 2, this financial statement excludes certain income and
expenses which would not be comparable with those resulting from the operations
of the Property after acquisition by Beacon Properties Corporation. The
accompanying financial statement was prepared for the purpose of complying with
the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission 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 excess of revenues over specific operating expenses
(exclusive of income and expenses described in Note 2) of 10880 Wilshire
Boulevard in Westwood, California, for the year ended December 31, 1996 in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

                    NOTES TO STATEMENT OF EXCESS OF REVENUES
                        OVER SPECIFIC OPERATING EXPENSES

1.       Organization and Significant Accounting Policies:

         Description of Properties

         10880 Wilshire Boulevard (the "Property") is located in Westwood,
         California and consists of one office building encompassing 
         approximately 534,000 square feet. Beacon Properties Corporation 
         intends to acquire the entire leasehold interest in the Property.

         Rental Revenues

         Rental income is recognized on the straight-line method over the terms
         of the related leases. The excess of recognized rentals over amounts
         due pursuant to lease terms is recorded as accrued rent. The impact of
         the straight-line rent adjustment increased revenues by approximately
         $1,750,000 for the year ended December 31, 1996.

         Risks and Uncertainties

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

2.       Basis of Accounting:

         The accompanying statement of excess of revenues over specific
         operating expenses is presented on the accrual basis. This statement
         has been prepared in accordance with the applicable rules and
         regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission for real estate
         properties acquired or to be acquired. Accordingly, the statement
         excludes certain historical income and expenses not comparable to the
         operations of the property after acquisition, such as interest income
         and amortization.

3.       Description of Leasing Arrangements:

         The commercial and office space is leased to tenants under leases with
         terms that vary in length. Certain of the leases contain real estate
         tax reimbursement clauses, operating expense reimbursement clauses and
         renewal options. Minimum lease payments to be received during the next
         five years for noncancelable operating leases in effect at December 31,
         1996 are approximately as follows: 

         Year Ending December 31,

              1997                                         $      8,614,000
              1998                                               11,333,000
              1999                                               11,770,000
              2000                                               11,288,000
              2001                                                9,438,000
              Thereafter                                          9,427,000

         As of December 31, 1996, three tenants occupied approximately 34% of
         leasable square feet and represented 16% of total 1996 base revenues.

4.       Ground Lease Commitment:

         The property is subject to a ground lease expiring in 2068. The lease
         provides for minimum rental payments of $210,000 per annum. At
         specified dates as provided for in the lease, annual rent payable is
         subject to adjustment at the greater of $210,000 or 7% of appraised
         market value of the property, as defined.

         The lessee has an option to buy out the lease on August 1, 2001 and pay
         the lessor for the land at an amount based on fair market value, as
         defined.

         The future minimum commitments under the ground lease are approximately
         as follows:


              1997                                         $        210,000
              1998                                                  210,000
              1999                                                  210,000
              2000                                                  210,000
              2001                                                  210,000
              Thereafter                                         13,895,000

                        REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS


To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
Beacon Properties Corporation:

We have audited the accompanying statement of excess of revenues over specific
operating expenses of Centerpointe in Fairfax, Virginia (the "Properties") for
the year ended December 31, 1996. This financial statement is the responsibility
of the Properties' 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 statement of excess of revenues over specific
operating expenses is free of material misstatement. An audit includes
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in
the 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.

As described in Note 2, this financial statement excludes certain income and
expenses which would not be comparable with those resulting from the operations
of the Properties after acquisition by Beacon Properties Corporation. The
accompanying financial statement was prepared for the purpose of complying with
the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and is not
intended to be a complete presentation of the Properties' revenues and expenses.

In our opinion, the financial statement referred to above presents fairly, in
all material respects, the excess of revenues over specific operating expenses
(exclusive of income and expenses described in Note 2) of Centerpointe in
Fairfax, Virginia, for the year ended December 31, 1996 in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.

                    NOTES TO STATEMENT OF EXCESS OF REVENUES
                        OVER SPECIFIC OPERATING EXPENSES


1.       Organization and Significant Accounting Policies:

         Description of Properties

         Centerpointe (the "Properties") is an office portfolio located in
         Fairfax, Virginia consisting of two office buildings and encompassing
         approximately 427,000 square feet. Beacon Properties Corporation
         intends to acquire the entire fee interest in the Properties.

         Rental Revenues

         Rental income is recognized on the straight-line method over the terms
         of the related leases. The excess of recognized rentals over amounts
         due pursuant to lease terms is recorded as accrued rent. The impact of
         the straight-line rent adjustment increased revenues by approximately
         $491,000 for the year ended December 31, 1996.

         Risks and Uncertainties

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

2.       Basis of Accounting:

         The accompanying statement of excess of revenues over specific
         operating expenses is presented on the accrual basis. This statement
         has been prepared in accordance with the applicable rules and
         regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission for real estate
         properties acquired or to be acquired. Accordingly, the statement
         excludes certain historical income and expenses not comparable to the
         operations of the property after acquisition, such as interest income,
         management fees, and amortization.

3.       Description of Leasing Arrangements:

         The commercial and office space is leased to tenants under leases with
         terms that vary in length. Certain of the leases contain real estate
         tax reimbursement clauses, operating expense reimbursement clauses and
         renewal options. Minimum lease payments to be received during the next
         five years for noncancelable operating leases in effect at December 31,
         1996 are approximately as follows: 

         Year Ending December 31,
         1997                                            $      5,881,000
         1998                                                   5,495,000
         1999                                                   5,256,000
         2000                                                   5,030,000
         2001                                                   5,033,000
         Thereafter                                            29,413,000


         As of December 31, 1996, one tenant occupied approximately 65% of
         leasable square feet and represented 61% of total 1996 base revenues.

4.       Mortgage Note:

         The mortgage note in the amount of $30,000,000, requires interest only
         monthly payments of $183,000 through December 1, 1998. Beginning on
         January 1, 1999, the note requires monthly installments of principal
         and interest of $218,197. The note bears interest at 7.32% and is due
         on February 28, 2001. The note is collaterized by the property and
         assignment of leases. 

         Principal payments due on the mortgage note during the next five years
         are approximately as follows:

         1997          -0-
         1998          -0-
         1999        437,000
         2000        470,000
         2001     29,039,000

          due pursuant to lease terms is recorded as accrued rent. The impact 
          of the straight-line rent adjustment decreased revenues by 
          approximately $1,600,000 for the year ended December 31, 1996.


          Risks and Uncertainties

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

          2. Basis of Accounting: 
             -------------------

          The accompanying statement of excess of revenues over specific 
          operating expenses is presented on the accrual basis. This statement
          has been prepared in accordance with the applicable rules and 
          regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission for real estate
          properties acquired or to be acquired. Accordingly, the statement 
          excludes certain historical income and expenses not comparable to the
          operations of the property after acquisition, such as interest
          income, management fees, depreciation, amortization and interest
          expense.

          3. Description of Leasing Arrangements:
             -----------------------------------

          The commercial and office space is leased to tenants under leases 
          with terms that vary in length. Certain of the leases contain real 
          estate tax reimbursement clauses, operating expense reimbursement 
          clauses and renewal options. Minimum lease payments to be received 
          during the next five years for noncancelable operating leases in 
          effect at December 31, 1996 are approximately as follows:


          Year Ending December 31,

                  Thereafter                         13,883,000
      
          As of December 31, 1996, one tenant occupied approximately 9% of
          leaseable square feet and represented 12% of total 1996 base revenues.

                         BEACON PROPERTIES CORPORATION
             PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL INFORMATION


       The following unaudited pro forma Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet of
Beacon Properties Corporation (the "Company") as of December 31, 1996, is
presented as if the 10880 Wilshire Boulevard, Centerpointe and Westbrook
Corporate Center properties had been acquired as of December 31, 1996.
Additionally, the Company's proposed, 7,000,000 share, common stock offering
($35.00 per share) and related repayment of the Credit Facility had occurred as
of December 31, 1996.

       The pro forma Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the
year ended December 31, 1996 is presented as if the acquisition of the
Properties acquired from January 1, 1996 to December 31, 1996 (as more fully
described below), the closing of the MetLife Mortgage loan, the Company's common
stock offerings from January 1, 1996 to December 31, 1996 (as more fully
described below) and the Company's proposed common stock offering had occurred
as of January 1, 1996. Furthermore, the Company qualified as a REIT, distributed
all of its taxable income and, therefore, incurred no income tax expense during
the period.

      In management's opinion, all adjustments necessary to reflect the above
discussed transactions have been made. The unaudited pro forma Condensed
Consolidated Balance Sheet and Statement of Operations are not necessarily
indicative of what actual results of operations of the Company would have been
for the period, nor does it purport to represent the Company's results of
operations for future periods.
