All of the shares of Class B Common Stock, par value $.01 per share (the "Class
B Shares"), of Security Capital Group Incorporated ("Security Capital" or the
"Company"), being offered hereby are being offered by Security Capital. Prior
to this offering (the "Offering"), there has been no public market for the

the Class B Shares, the "Shares"). The rights of holders of Class A Shares and
Class B Shares differ as follows: the holders of Class A Shares are entitled to
one vote, while the holders of Class B Shares are entitled to one two-hundredth
( 1/200th) of a vote, for each share held of record on all matters submitted to
a vote of shareholders; and holders of Class B Shares are entitled to receive
dividends and distributions (including liquidating distributions) equal to one-
fiftieth ( 1/50th) of the amount per share declared by the Board of Directors
of Security Capital (the "Board") for each Class A Share. Upon completion of
the Offering, the holders of the Class A Shares will control approximately 92%
of the total voting power of Security Capital. Each Class A Share can be
converted into 50 Class B Shares beginning on January 1, 1998 at the option of
the holder thereof.
 
The Class B Shares have been approved for listing on the New York Stock
Exchange (the "NYSE") under the symbol "SCZ.B", subject to official notice of

employees of the Company and its affiliates at the initial public offering
price. See "Underwriting". Such directors, officers and employees are expected
to purchase, in the aggregate, not more than 1,132,500 of the Class B Shares
offered in the Offering. Security Capital U.S. Realty, a Luxembourg-based real
estate operating company which is 33% owned by Security Capital, has expressed
an interest in acquiring 1,964,286 Class B Shares in the Offering at the
initial public offering price. In addition, an unaffiliated institutional
investor has expressed an interest in acquiring 3,819,709 Class B Shares in the

                               PROSPECTUS SUMMARY
 
This summary is qualified in its entirety by, and should be read in conjunction
with, the more detailed information and financial statements appearing
elsewhere in this Prospectus.
 
                      SECURITY CAPITAL GROUP INCORPORATED
 
Security Capital is a real estate research, investment and operating management
company. Management has assembled a superior team of operating and investment
professionals to implement the firm's strategy. Prior to the Offering, Security
Capital was owned primarily by directors, officers, employees and 65 major
domestic and foreign institutional investors.
 
Security Capital's strategy is to create the optimal organization to lead and
profit from global real estate securitization. Security Capital will implement
this strategy by:
 
  . Providing leadership in real estate research conducted on a global basis.
    Security Capital's proprietary research, which is available to Security
    Capital's affiliates, provides a strong foundation for its capital
    deployment strategy.
 
  . Continuing to invest its capital in fully integrated, value-added
    operating companies that have strong prospects for sustained growth.
    Security Capital plans to utilize the results of its research to identify
    opportunities in which it can invest its capital in the start-up of
    highly focused, private operating companies with the objective of
    becoming publicly traded and having the prospect of dominating their
    respective niches. The Company currently is considering several new
    business initiatives, both domestically and globally, in which it has
    recently made or has agreed to make investments. While none of the new
    business initiatives is material at present to Security Capital's results
    of operations or financial condition, such initiatives are expected to be
    an important component of Security Capital's future growth. See
    "Business--Future Strategy." In addition, Security Capital will continue
    to make investments in public companies in which it can provide strategic
    and operating guidance and capital and thereby enable the companies to
    pursue an attractive growth strategy. See "Business--Operating Strategy--
    Security Capital Strategic Group."
 
  .Creating a global real estate securities management business.
 
Since its commencement of operations in 1991, Security Capital has continually
committed research and development capital to generate new start-up, fully
integrated real estate operating companies and new business services. Based on
such research and development activities, Security Capital has established a
range of real estate research, service and management businesses and made a
series of investments in Security Capital Pacific Trust ("PTR"), Security
Capital Industrial Trust ("SCI"), Security Capital Atlantic Incorporated
("ATLANTIC"), Security Capital U.S. Realty ("SC-USREALTY") and Homestead
Village Incorporated ("Homestead"), each of which is now publicly traded.
Through September 12, 1997, Security Capital has invested an aggregate of
approximately $2.3 billion in the common shares of PTR, SCI, ATLANTIC, SC-
USREALTY and Homestead and warrants of Homestead. Those securities had an
aggregate market value of approximately $3.3 billion (based on the closing
price of those securities on the principal exchange on which such securities
are listed on September 12, 1997). As of September 12, 1997, Security Capital
owned approximately 33% of PTR, 50% of ATLANTIC, 68% of Homestead, 43% of SCI
and 33% of SC-USREALTY (based in each case on common shares outstanding) and,
pursuant to a series of investor agreements, advisory agreements, board
representation or other control rights, has significant influence over the
operations of each of these entities. As of September 12, 1997, these five
publicly traded real estate companies had a collective equity market
capitalization (assuming full conversion or exercise of convertible securities,
options and warrants) of approximately $9.4 billion. SC-USREALTY has made
strategic investments in three publicly traded companies, CarrAmerica Realty
Corporation ("CarrAmerica"), Storage USA, Inc. ("Storage USA") and Regency
Realty Corporation ("REGENCY"), and one private company, Pacific Retail Trust
("PACIFIC RETAIL"), which had a collective equity market capitalization of
approximately $4.6 billion as of September 12, 1997 (assuming contractual
equity commitments by investors have been funded, and full
 
                                       4
<PAGE>
 
conversion or exercise of convertible securities, options and warrants). For
further information on the Company's relationship to these publicly traded
companies, see "Business--Operating Strategy," "--Operating Companies Market
Price Information and Financial Performance" and "Relationships with Operating
Companies."
 
Security Capital has several new business initiatives which recently became
operational, including Strategic Hotel Capital Incorporated, Security Capital
Preferred Growth Incorporated and Security Capital Employee REIT Fund, in which
Security Capital has initially committed to invest $300 million, $50 million
and $100 million, respectively, and several other new business initiatives
which are in varying stages of research and development. Security Capital and
SC-USREALTY also have several new business initiatives expected to be
operational by the end of 1997, including Security Capital Global Realty and
Security Capital EuroPacific Real Estate Shares, in which Security Capital has
committed to invest $300 million and $50 million, respectively. See "Business--
Future Strategy." Security Capital believes that an important component of its
future growth will come from new business initiatives and the implementation of
new business strategies, although there can be no assurance that current new
business initiatives will be continued or prove successful.

(1) Ownership and market capitalization are as of September 12, 1997, and
assume contractual equity commitments by investors have been funded,
convertible instruments have been converted into common shares, and options and
warrants for common shares have been exercised. The resulting number of common
shares is multiplied by the closing price of the common shares on such date for
those companies listed on an exchange or, in the case of PACIFIC RETAIL, the
last private equity offering price. See "--Operating Companies Market Price
Information and Financial Performance."
(2) As of September 12, 1997, Security Capital's percentage ownerships in its

market capitalization, as of September 12, 1997, based on common shares
outstanding was $2.2 billion for PTR, $1.1 billion for ATLANTIC, $444 million

Ownership of Homestead does not include any ownership Security Capital may
obtain in Homestead upon conversion of convertible mortgages owned by PTR and
ATLANTIC through funding commitment agreements. See "Relationships with

                            THE MERGER TRANSACTIONS
 
Prior to September 9, 1997, Security Capital, through its affiliates, provided
real estate investment trust ("REIT") management and property management
services to each of ATLANTIC, PTR and SCI. In December 1996, management of
Security Capital proposed to its Board that Security Capital exchange its REIT
management companies and property management companies for common shares of
ATLANTIC, PTR and SCI, respectively. In January 1997, based upon the direction
of the Board, Security Capital proposed to the Board of Directors of ATLANTIC,
and the Board of Trustees of each of PTR and SCI, that each of ATLANTIC, PTR
and SCI become internally managed. On March 24, 1997, Security Capital and each
of ATLANTIC, PTR and SCI entered into Merger and Issuance Agreements
(collectively, the "Merger Agreements"), pursuant to which Security Capital
caused its affiliates providing REIT management and property management
services to each of ATLANTIC, PTR and SCI to be merged into newly formed
subsidiaries of such respective entities (the "Mergers") with the result that
all personnel employed in the REIT management and property management
businesses became officers and employees of ATLANTIC, PTR and SCI,
respectively. Each Merger was approved by the shareholders of each of ATLANTIC,
PTR and SCI on September 8, 1997 and each Merger closed on September 9, 1997.
In exchange for the transfer of those businesses, Security Capital received
2,306,591 shares of ATLANTIC's common stock, 3,295,533 of PTR's common shares
of beneficial interest and 3,692,023 of SCI's common shares of beneficial
interest.
 
In order to allow the common shareholders of ATLANTIC, PTR and SCI,
respectively, to maintain (and to the extent a shareholder oversubscribed for
common shares pursuant to the oversubscription privilege described below, to
increase) their relative percentage ownership interests in each of their
companies, concurrently with proxy solicitations seeking approval of the
Mergers, each of ATLANTIC, PTR and SCI conducted a rights offering entitling
its common shareholders (other than Security Capital) to purchase additional
common shares. Shareholders were entitled to subscribe for common shares not
purchased by other common shareholders pursuant to an oversubscription
privilege. The rights offering price for each company was at a discount to the
price at which common shares were issued to Security Capital pursuant to the
respective Merger Agreements. The exercise prices in the rights offerings, the
prices of the common shares issued to Security Capital in the Mergers, the
closing prices of the common shares on August 5, 1997 (the day prior to the
record dates for the Mergers) and the five-day trailing average closing prices
on August 5, 1997 were as follows:

</TABLE>
 
Common shares not subscribed for by common shareholders in the rights offerings
were made available for purchase by third parties. The rights offerings were
fully subscribed and closed on September 12, 1997 and each of PTR and SCI sold
an additional 1,486,686 and 994,070 common shares, respectively, to cover
oversubscriptions and third party demand, which sales closed on September 15,
1997.
 
In addition, as part of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreements,
Security Capital issued warrants to purchase an aggregate of 8,928,572 Class B
Shares ("Warrants") to the common equity holders (and holders of certain
securities convertible into common shares) of each of ATLANTIC, PTR and SCI
(other than Security Capital) (the "Warrant Issuance"). The Warrants were
issued as an incentive for the common shareholders of ATLANTIC, PTR and SCI to
vote in favor of the transactions, to broaden Security Capital's shareholder
base, to enable Security Capital to raise additional equity capital at a
relatively low cost through the exercise of Warrants and to enable Security
Capital to raise additional equity capital in the long run by preserving and
enhancing its goodwill with the shareholders of ATLANTIC, PTR and SCI. The
exercise price of the Warrants is the initial public offering price of the
Class B Shares in the Offering, and the Warrants will expire on September 18,
1998.

                                  RISK FACTORS
 
An investment in the Class B Shares involves certain risks including the
following: (i) recent underlying favorable conditions in the real estate
industry may not continue and Security Capital may not continue to grow at
rates similar to those which it has achieved in the past; (ii) there can be no
assurance that Security Capital will be successful in creating new businesses;
(iii) Security Capital is dependent on dividends, capital gains and management
and service fees from its operating companies to meet its operating needs and
to pay principal and interest on debt; (iv) Security Capital, through its
investees, is subject to general real estate investment risks; (v) there are
limitations on the shareholders' ability to change control of Security Capital;
(vi) there has been no prior market for the Class B Shares; and (vii) investors
in the Offering will experience immediate dilution of net tangible book value
of the Class B Shares. See "Risk Factors."
 
                         TAX STATUS OF SECURITY CAPITAL
 
For federal income tax purposes, Security Capital is a Subchapter C corporation
subject to applicable federal and state tax on its taxable income at regular
corporate rates. As a result, it is under no obligation to make any
distributions to shareholders. If distributions are made by Security Capital,
shareholders will recognize ordinary income to the extent of current and
accumulated earnings and profits of Security Capital and any amounts
distributed in excess of current and accumulated earnings and profits will be
considered a tax-free return of capital, reducing the tax basis in the
shareholder's Shares by the amount of such distribution (but not below zero),
with distributions in excess of the shareholder's tax basis taxable as capital
gains (if the Shares are held as a capital asset). In general, any gain or loss
upon a sale or other disposition of Shares by a shareholder will be considered
either short-term or long-term capital gain depending upon the period of time
the Shares were held by the shareholder. Non-U.S. holders not holding Shares in
connection with a U.S. trade or business generally will be subject to U.S.
withholding tax in connection with distributions unless reduced or eliminated
by an applicable tax treaty. In addition, non-U.S. holders not holding Shares
in connection with a U.S. trade or business generally will not be subject to
U.S. federal income tax on a sale or other disposition of Shares unless
Security Capital has been a "United States real property holding corporation"
within the five-year period preceding such sale or disposition. See "Certain
United States Federal Tax Considerations for Non-U.S. Holders of Class B
Shares."

(1) Prior to 1995, Security Capital consolidated the accounts of SCI and
Security Capital Pacific Incorporated ("PACIFIC"). During 1995, Security
Capital's ownership of SCI decreased to less than 50% and PACIFIC was merged
into PTR. Accordingly, these entities were deconsolidated effective January 1,
1995.
(2) Security Capital resulted from the merger of two affiliated, but not
commonly controlled, entities on January 1, 1995 (the "1995 Merger"). See Note
1 to the Company's consolidated financial statements included in this
Prospectus for more information concerning the 1995 Merger and the predecessor
entity.
(3) During 1994, Security Capital made a $757.50 per share distribution of the
2014 Convertible Debentures resulting in a total increase of $417.2 million in
outstanding 2014 Convertible Debentures.
(4) Security Capital does not guarantee the debt of any of its consolidated or
unconsolidated operating companies.
(5) On April 17, 1997, shareholders approved an amended and restated charter
which created Class A Shares and Class B Shares. All outstanding common shares
as of April 18, 1997 automatically became Class A Shares and all securities
convertible into or exchangeable for common shares became convertible into or
exchangeable for Class A Shares.
(6) For the years ended December 31, 1994, 1993 and 1992, Security Capital
elected to be taxed as a REIT and made cash distributions to its shareholders.

                                  RISK FACTORS
 
Prospective purchasers of the Class B Shares offered hereby should consider
carefully the information set forth below, as well as the other information set
forth in this Prospectus. This Prospectus contains, in addition to historical
information, forward looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties.
Those statements appear in a number of places in this Prospectus and include
statements regarding the intent, belief or current expectations of the Company,
its Board or its officers with respect to (i) future revenues, (ii) future
performance of the Company's businesses and (iii) future business initiatives
of the Company. The Company's actual results could differ materially from those
anticipated in the forward looking statements as a result of certain factors,
including those discussed below and elsewhere in this Prospectus.
 
PAST GROWTH RATE NOT INDICATIVE OF FUTURE RESULTS
 
Security Capital was started in 1991 and its early stages of development
occurred when it was an optimal time to purchase real estate. Over the five and
one-half year period ended June 30, 1997, Security Capital's book value per
Class A Share (after payment of convertible debt interest and preferred stock
dividends) increased at a compounded average growth rate of 7.40% per year.
There can be no assurance that underlying favorable conditions in the real
estate industry will continue or that, in the future, the stock price of the
Class A Shares or Class B Shares will increase, or the book value per share
will continue to grow, at rates similar to those which Security Capital has
achieved in the past.
 
RISKS RELATING TO NEW BUSINESS INITIATIVES
 
Since its inception, Security Capital has continually devoted substantial
resources to the creation of new businesses. Security Capital currently has
several new business initiatives which have recently become operational, or are
expected to be operational by the end of 1997, or are in varying stages of
research and development, and SC-USREALTY also has several new business
initiatives that are expected to be operational by the end of 1997. These new
business initiatives, to the extent they are developed into new businesses, may
be subject to a greater risk of failure as a new business initiative than
generally would be associated with a mature business. As a result, there can be
no assurance that these new business initiatives will be completed, or if
completed, prove to be successful or viable. While none of the new business
initiatives is material at present to Security Capital's results of operations
or financial condition, such initiatives are expected to be an important
component of Security Capital's future growth. See "Business--Future Strategy."
 
DEPENDENCE ON KEY PERSONNEL
 
Security Capital's success depends upon attracting and retaining the services
of executive officers, including C. Ronald Blankenship, William D. Sanders and
Thomas G. Wattles, who are members of the Operating Committee, as well as
several key senior officers, consisting of the following Managing Directors:
Jeffrey A. Cozad, John H. Gardner, W. Joseph Houlihan, Gordon S. Kerr, Anthony
R. Manno, Jr., Todd W. Mansfield, Caroline S. McBride, Daniel F. Miranda, Mary
Lou Rogers, Donald E. Suter, Paul E. Szurek and Robert S. Underhill. Security
Capital has experienced individuals who manage its operating companies,
including R. Scot Sellers, President and Chief Executive Officer of PTR,
Patrick R. Whelan, Managing Director of PTR, K. Dane Brooksher and Irving F.
Lyons, III, Co-Chairmen of SCI, Constance B. Moore and James C. Potts, Co-
Chairmen of ATLANTIC, and Michael D. Cryan and David C. Dressler Jr., Co-
Chairmen of Homestead. Security Capital's success will depend, among other
things, on its ability to retain each of the foregoing individuals. Security
Capital's success also depends upon the ability of Security Capital's operating
companies and any new entities it creates to continue to recruit experienced
management. There is substantial competition for qualified personnel in the
real estate industry. Security Capital believes it has an effective succession
plan in place and that several of its officers could serve as Security
Capital's senior executive officers and continue Security Capital's
performance. The loss of any of these key personnel could have an adverse
effect on Security Capital.
 
RELIANCE ON DIVIDENDS AND TRANSFERS FROM OPERATING COMPANIES
 
Security Capital conducts all of its operations through its operating companies
and service businesses. As such, Security Capital is dependent on dividends and
fees from such entities to meet its operating expense needs and to pay
principal and interest on debt, including borrowings under the revolving line
of credit of SC Realty Incorporated ("SC Realty"), a wholly owned subsidiary of
Security Capital which holds the Company's shares of PTR, SCI, ATLANTIC, SC-
USREALTY and Homestead and warrants to purchase shares of Homestead. This
revolving line of credit is secured by such securities and is guaranteed by
Security Capital. See
 
                                       10
<PAGE>
 
"Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations--Investing and Financing Activities--Line of Credit." Although many
of the Company's operating companies are REITs, others are not and the
Company's ability to obtain dividends, fees or other funds from such operating
companies depends on the economic performance of such operating companies, the
prior claims of creditors or holders of preferred stock of such operating
companies and the Company's ability to control or cause such operating
companies to make distributions or such other payments.
 
LACK OF DIVIDENDS TO SHAREHOLDERS
 
Security Capital is not a REIT and is not required to make distributions to its
common shareholders. Security Capital does not intend to pay dividends on Class
A Shares or Class B Shares in the foreseeable future.
 
SUBSTANTIAL LEVERAGE
 
Security Capital has a substantial amount of leverage and will continue to have
a substantial amount of leverage after the Offering. As of June 30, 1997,
Security Capital had approximately $1.4 billion of consolidated outstanding
long-term indebtedness (of which $298 million represented indebtedness of
Security Capital's consolidated operating companies) and $386 million of
consolidated outstanding short-term indebtedness (of which $279 million
represented indebtedness of Security Capital's consolidated operating
companies) and after giving pro forma effect to the Offering, the Company's
debt-to-equity ratio (including all outstanding Convertible Debentures as debt)
at such date would have been 1.19 to 1.0. If all Convertible Debentures
outstanding on such date were converted, Security Capital's debt-to-equity
ratio would have been .26 to 1.0. Of the $1.4 billion of consolidated
outstanding long-term indebtedness, approximately $1.1 billion consisted of
Convertible Debentures, which are convertible at the option of the holders into
Class A Shares one year after the Offering or upon redemption of the
Convertible Debentures. The current conversion prices for the Convertible
Debentures are below the Company's estimate of the fair market value per Class
A Share. If the Convertible Debentures were converted, the outstanding long-
term indebtedness would be reduced to approximately $298 million (all of which
would be indebtedness of Security Capital's consolidated operating companies).
At its August meeting, the Board requested management of Security Capital to
study various options to retire the Convertible Debentures. Management is
currently analyzing several options including an exchange offer for, or a
redemption of, the 2014 Convertible Debentures although no assurance can be
given that Security Capital will retire some or all of the 2014 Convertible
Debentures prior to maturity. Security Capital does not guarantee the debt of
any of its consolidated or unconsolidated operating companies. In addition,
Security Capital's operating companies have a substantial amount of
indebtedness and, in certain cases, have issued preferred stock to third
parties.
 
In 1993, Security Capital entered into an $85 million revolving line of credit
with Wells Fargo Realty Advisers Funding, Incorporated ("Wells Fargo"), as
agent for a syndicate of banks. Subsequently, this line of credit was amended
and the size of the facility was increased to $250 million, $300 million and
$400 million in 1994, 1995 and 1997, respectively. In 1995, Security Capital
transferred its investments in the REITs and assigned its obligations under the
line of credit to SC Realty, its wholly owned subsidiary, effectively making SC
Realty the borrower. The facility, which is provided by a group of 11 banks, is
effective through November 15, 1998 and had an outstanding balance of $165.5
million as of August 31, 1997. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations--Investing and Financing
Activities--Line of Credit."
 
Under SC Realty's line of credit, Security Capital (as guarantor) is not
permitted to incur or assume any indebtedness other than (i) indebtedness under
the SC Realty line of credit which is guaranteed by Security Capital, (ii)
existing convertible subordinated indebtedness, (iii) subordinated
indebtedness, (iv) indebtedness represented by declared but unpaid dividends,
(v) indebtedness secured by purchase money liens in an aggregate amount not to
exceed $10 million at any time outstanding, (vi) indebtedness owing to SC
Realty (limited to a maximum of $50 million), and (vii) other indebtedness in
an aggregate amount not to exceed $10 million at any time outstanding. In
addition, the terms and conditions of SC Realty's line of credit impose
restrictions that affect, among other things, the ability of Security Capital
to (i) create liens on assets, (ii) sell or otherwise transfer certain assets,
(iii) engage in mergers or consolidations, and (iv) pay dividends. Security
Capital is also required by the terms of its guaranty to comply with certain
specified financial ratios and tests, including (i) a minimum shareholders'
equity of greater than $795 million; (ii) a maximum ratio of total liabilities
of Security Capital to the net worth of Security Capital plus the market value
net worth of SC Realty of 1.75 to 1.00; and (iii) a minimum ratio of cash flow
to mandatory interest expense of 1.75 to 1.00. Security Capital's ability to
comply with the foregoing provisions may be affected
 
                                       11
<PAGE>
 
by events beyond its control. Security Capital's failure to comply with any of
these covenants could result in a default under the line of credit. At June 30,
1997, Security Capital was in compliance with all covenants under the guaranty
and SC Realty's line of credit.
 
Based on Security Capital's current level of operations and anticipated growth
as a result of pending new business initiatives, Security Capital expects that
cash flows from operations (including dividends and fees received from its
operating companies), the proceeds of the Offering and funds currently
available under its $400 million revolving line of credit will be sufficient to
enable Security Capital to satisfy its anticipated cash requirements for
operating and investing activities for existing businesses for the next twelve
months. Security Capital intends to finance its long-term business activities
(including investments in new business initiatives) through the proceeds of the
Offering, borrowings under an expanded line of credit and the exercise of the
Warrants. In addition, the Company anticipates that its operating companies
will separately finance their activities through cash flow from operations,
sales of equity and debt securities and the incurrence of mortgage debt or line
of credit borrowings. The degree to which Security Capital is leveraged and to
which it is able to meet its financial obligations could affect its ability to
obtain additional financing in the future for refinancing indebtedness, working
capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions, investments in new businesses,
general corporate purposes or other purposes.
 
OPERATING LOSS IN 1995 AND ACCUMULATED DEFICIT
 
For the year ended December 31, 1995, Security Capital experienced a net loss
of $201.6 million of which $158.4 million related to the one-time noncash
charge related to the acquisition of the Services Division. In addition, as of
June 30, 1997, Security Capital had an accumulated deficit of $203.3 million.
Although Security Capital had net earnings for 1996 and the first six months of
1997, there can be no assurance that Security Capital will remain profitable in
the future.
 
CONFLICTS OF INTEREST
 
Allocation of New Business Opportunities.
Security Capital will deploy its capital (both its corporate and third-party
managed capital) through the direct and indirect ownership of public and
private companies with highly focused business strategies which are engaged in
real estate activities. The allocation of new business opportunities may
present conflicts between Security Capital and its direct and indirect
investees. New opportunities in existing property types within the United
States, for example, multifamily communities or distribution space, will be
presented to existing direct or indirect investees which are engaged in owning
and operating those types of properties. Long-term strategic investment
opportunities in equity oriented REITs located in the United States, which are
not engaged in operating property types in which Security Capital currently
owns a strategic position, generally will be allocated to SC-USREALTY. All
other investment opportunities in unrelated real estate operating companies
located in the United States are expected to be allocated to Security Capital,
which may form new entities to develop those opportunities.
 
Interests of Certain Directors and Officers of Security Capital in Direct and
Indirect Investees.
Several directors and officers of Security Capital are directors or officers of
direct or indirect investees of Security Capital and own shares of Security
Capital and direct and indirect investees of Security Capital. As of August 31,
1997, directors and executive officers of Security Capital as a group
beneficially owned 97,000 shares of Class A Shares, representing approximately
7.17% of those shares, and also owned options to purchase additional Class A
Shares. At that same date, such directors and officers as a group beneficially
owned 39,578 common shares of ATLANTIC (less than 1%), 382,804 shares of
Homestead common stock (1.37%), 785,506 common shares of PTR (less than 1%),
691,186 common shares of SCI (less than 1%), and 3,052,330 common shares of SC-
USREALTY (2.14%). This information does not include any common shares of
ATLANTIC, PTR and SCI which such persons may have purchased pursuant to the
rights offerings recently conducted by ATLANTIC, PTR and SCI. See "Principal
Shareholders." William D. Sanders is Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of
Security Capital and non-executive chairman of SC-USREALTY and a director of
Storage USA. C. Ronald Blankenship is a Managing Director of Security Capital,
a trustee and non-executive chairman of PTR, a director of Strategic Hotel
Capital Incorporated and an advisory director of ATLANTIC and Homestead. John
T. Kelley III is a director of Security Capital, a trustee of PTR, an advisory
trustee of SCI and Chairman of PACIFIC RETAIL. John P. Frazee, Jr. is a
director of Security Capital and a director of Homestead. Thomas G. Wattles is
a Managing Director of Security Capital, a trustee and non-executive chairman
of SCI. Caroline S. McBride is a Managing Director of the Strategic
 
                                       12
<PAGE>
 
Group (defined below) and a director of CarrAmerica and Storage USA. Jeffery A.
Klopf is Senior Vice President and Secretary of Security Capital and holds
similar positions in SCI, PTR, ATLANTIC and Homestead.
 
Each of Messrs. Blankenship, Wattles, Frazee and Kelley hold their
directorships in direct investees of Security Capital as nominees of Security
Capital pursuant to Investor Agreements between Security Capital and the
respective investee. Mr. Sanders and Ms. McBride hold their directorships in
indirect investees of Security Capital as nominees of SC-USREALTY under
agreements between SC-USREALTY and the respective indirect investee.
 
From time to time there may be transactions between Security Capital and its
direct investees, or among its direct and indirect investees, or between
Security Capital and its indirect investees. The interests of the foregoing
persons may differ from the interests of shareholders of Security Capital as a
result of their positions in the direct or indirect investees or their
ownership of securities of the direct or indirect investees and, as a result,
such persons may have an incentive to place the interests of the direct or
indirect investees over those of Security Capital's shareholders.
 
Principal Transactions with Officers, Directors and Direct and Indirect
Investees.
Security Capital has engaged in principal transactions with certain officers
and directors or companies in which a director may have a material interest.
See "Certain Relationships and Transactions." Other than as described in
"Certain Relationships and Transactions," Security Capital does not intend to
engage in principal transactions with officers and directors or to engage
independent directors to provide services to Security Capital. Security Capital
will not borrow from or make loans to affiliates, other than loans to officers
similar to those described in "Certain Relationships and Transactions," or
loans to affiliates in which Security Capital owns a substantial economic
interest, or where the Board believes that such loans are in the best long-term
interests of Security Capital and its shareholders. In those cases where
Security Capital engages in these types of transactions, it has obtained or
will obtain, after appropriate disclosure of all material interests, Board
approval for officer transactions, disinterested director approval for
interested director transactions and, where appropriate under Maryland law or
required by its amended and restated articles of incorporation (the "Charter")
or amended and restated bylaws (the "Bylaws"), shareholder approval.
 
Neither Security Capital's Charter nor its Bylaws contain any restrictions on
interested party transactions with directors and officers. Under the laws of
Maryland (where Security Capital is organized), each director is obligated to
offer to Security Capital any opportunity (with certain limited exceptions)
which comes to him and which Security Capital could reasonably be expected to
have an interest in developing. In addition, under Maryland law, any contract
or other transaction between Security Capital and any director or any entity in
which the director has a material financial interest is voidable unless (i) it
is approved, after disclosure of the interest, by the affirmative vote of a
majority of disinterested directors or by the affirmative vote of a majority of
the votes cast by disinterested shareholders or (ii) it is fair and reasonable
to Security Capital.
 
Transactions with direct investees have been and will be considered, after
appropriate disclosure of all material interests, by the entire Board of
Security Capital. Security Capital owns substantial positions in its direct
investees which, together with certain investor agreements, advisory
agreements, board representation or other control rights, allow Security
Capital to exert significant influence over the operations of each of these
entities. SC-USREALTY generally has investor agreements and board
representation for indirect investees of Security Capital.
 
LIMITATIONS ON ACQUISITION OF SHARES AND CHANGE IN CONTROL
 
Ownership Limit
The Charter restricts ownership of more than 9.8% of the number or value of the
outstanding Class A Shares and Class B Shares by any single shareholder except
SC-USREALTY. This provision is designed to help ensure that Security Capital's
operating companies that are REITs are able to meet the constructive ownership
limitations imposed by the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the
"Code"). The Board, in its sole discretion, may waive this restriction. Shares
acquired in breach of the limitation may be redeemed by Security Capital at the
average daily closing sales price per Class A Share or Class B Share, as
applicable, during the 30-day period ending on the business day prior to the
redemption date. A transfer of such Shares to a person who, as a result of the
transfer, violates the ownership limit may be void under some circumstances.
See "Description of Capital Stock--Restriction on Size of Holdings of Shares"
for additional information regarding the ownership limit in the Charter and the
constructive ownership limitations imposed by the Code.
 
                                       13
<PAGE>
 
Security Capital's 9.8% ownership limit, as well as the ability of Security
Capital to issue additional Class A Shares, Class B Shares or other classes or
series of stock (which may have rights and preferences senior to the Class B
Shares), may have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in
control of Security Capital without the consent of the Board even if a change
in control were in the shareholders' interests and may also (i) deter tender
offers for Class A Shares or Class B Shares, which offers may be advantageous
to shareholders and (ii) limit the opportunity for shareholders to receive a
premium for their Class A Shares or Class B Shares that might otherwise exist
if an investor were attempting to assemble a block of Class A Shares or Class B
Shares in excess of 9.8% or otherwise effect a change in control of Security
Capital.
 
Shareholder Purchase Rights
On April 21, 1997, the Board declared a dividend of one preferred share
purchase right (a "Purchase Right") for each Share outstanding. Each Purchase
Right entitles the holder, under certain circumstances, to purchase from
Security Capital, in the event the underlying share is a Class A Share, one
one-hundredth of a share of Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock, par
value $.01 per share (the "Participating Preferred Shares"), at a price of
$6,000 per one one-hundredth of a Participating Preferred Share, subject to
adjustment. In the event the underlying share is a Class B Share, the Purchase
Right entitles the registered holder, under certain circumstances, to purchase
from Security Capital one five-thousandth of a Participating Preferred Share of
Security Capital at a price of $120 per one five-thousandth of a Participating
Preferred Share. Purchase Rights are exercisable when a person or group of
persons (other than SC-USREALTY and other affiliates of Security Capital)
acquires 20% or more of the voting power of the voting equity securities of
Security Capital or announces a tender offer for 25% or more of the voting
power of the voting equity securities of Security Capital. Under certain
circumstances, each Purchase Right entitles the holder to purchase, at the
Purchase Right's then current exercise price, a number of Class A Shares or
Class B Shares, as the case may be, having a market value of twice the Purchase
Right's exercise price. The acquisition of Security Capital pursuant to certain
mergers or other business transactions would entitle each holder to purchase,
at the Purchase Right's then current exercise price, a number of the acquiring
company's common shares having a market value at that time equal to twice the
Purchase Right's exercise price. The Purchase Rights held by the triggering 20%
shareholders (other than SC-USREALTY or other affiliates of Security Capital)
would not be exercisable.
 
The Purchase Rights may have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a
change in control of Security Capital without the consent of the Board even if
a change in control were in the shareholders' interests and may also adversely
affect the voting and other rights of shareholders. See "Description of Capital
Stock--Purchase Rights."
 
Classified Board; Preferred Stock; Advance Notice Provisions
The Board has been divided into three classes of directors. The terms of the
classes will expire in 1998, 1999 and 2000, respectively. As the term of a
class expires, directors for that class will be elected for a three-year term
and the directors in the other two classes will continue in office. See
"Certain Provisions of Maryland Law and of Security Capital's Charter and
Bylaws--Classification of the Board."
 
Security Capital's Charter authorizes the Board to reclassify any unissued
shares of Security Capital's stock from time to time by setting or changing the
preferences, conversion or other rights, voting powers, restrictions,
limitations as to dividends, qualifications or terms or conditions of
redemption. See "Description of Capital Stock--General" and "--Preferred
Stock."
 
For nominations or other business to be properly brought before an annual
meeting of shareholders by a shareholder, Security Capital's Bylaws require
such shareholder to deliver a notice to the Secretary, absent specified
circumstances, not less than 60 days nor more than 90 days prior to the first
anniversary of the preceding year's annual meeting setting forth: (i) as to
each person whom the shareholder proposes to nominate for election or
reelection as a director, all information relating to such person that is
required to be disclosed in solicitations of proxies for the election of
directors pursuant to Regulation 14A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended (the "Exchange Act"); (ii) as to any other business that the
shareholder proposes to bring before the meeting, a brief description of the
business desired to be brought before the meeting, the reasons for conducting
such business at the meeting and any material interest in such business of such
shareholder and of the beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the proposal
is made; and (iii) as to the shareholder giving the notice and the beneficial
owner, if any, on whose behalf the nomination or proposal is made, (x) the name
and address of such shareholder as it appears on Security Capital's books and
of such beneficial owner and (y) the number of Shares which are owned
beneficially and of record by such shareholder and such beneficial owner, if
any.
 
                                       14
<PAGE>
 
The classified Board, the issuance of preferred stock and the advance notice
provisions discussed in the preceding paragraphs each could have the effect of
delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control of Security Capital even
if a change in control were in the shareholders' interests.
 
CERTAIN RISKS RELATING TO THE INVESTMENT COMPANY ACT
 
Security Capital is not registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
amended (the "Investment Company Act"), in reliance on exemptions provided by
Rule 3a-1 promulgated under the Investment Company Act. Security Capital is not
required to register as an investment company because it is principally engaged
in the real estate business through companies that it primarily controls. As of
September 12, 1997, Security Capital owned approximately 33% of PTR, 50% of
ATLANTIC, 68% of Homestead, 43% of SCI, and 33% of SC-USREALTY (based in each
case on outstanding common shares at such date) and which, together with
certain investor agreements, advisory agreements, board representation or other
control rights, allows Security Capital to exert significant influence over the
operations of each of these entities. Security Capital currently intends to
exert similar influence over any other operating company through which it makes
future investments. However, to the extent Security Capital does not elect to
participate in future equity offerings by its operating companies, its
ownership interest in and control over such companies could diminish, and the
Company could potentially be required to register as an investment company
under the Investment Company Act. Security Capital would be materially
adversely affected if it were required to register as an investment company
under the Investment Company Act.
 
CERTAIN TAX RISKS RELATING TO STATUS OF SC-USREALTY
 
SC-USREALTY was organized in 1995 principally to own significant strategic
positions in leading value-added real estate operating companies based in the
United States. The Company has been advised by SC-USREALTY that SC-USREALTY is
not currently, and intends to operate so as not to become, a Passive Foreign
Investment Company ("PFIC") or subject to the accumulated earnings tax for
United States income tax purposes. Characterization of SC-USREALTY as a PFIC
could potentially subject the Company to income tax on its pro rata share of
the undistributed income of SC-USREALTY. In addition, application of the
accumulated earnings tax to SC-USREALTY could potentially subject SC-USREALTY
to a 39.6% tax rate on its "accumulated taxable income" for United States
income tax purposes.
 
UNITED STATES REAL PROPERTY HOLDING CORPORATION
 
In the opinion of Mayer, Brown & Platt, based on certain representations of
Security Capital, Security Capital was not, as of the date of this Prospectus,
a "United States real property holding corporation." However, such opinion is
not binding on the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (the "IRS") and there can be
no assurance that the IRS will agree with the conclusions set forth in such
opinion. Moreover, such opinion is based on certain factual matters as of the
date of this Prospectus which may change, such as the relative fair market
value of Security Capital's assets and investments made by Security Capital as
of the date of this Prospectus. In general, if Security Capital were treated as
or were to become a "United States real property holding corporation," a non-
U.S. holder of Class B Shares deemed to own more than 5% of the Class B Shares
would be subject to U.S. income and withholding taxes upon a sale or other
disposition of such shares. See "Certain United States Federal Tax
Considerations for Non-U.S. Holders of Class B Shares--U.S. Income and Estate
Tax Consequences."
 
REAL ESTATE RISKS AFFECTING SECURITY CAPITAL
 
General
Although Security Capital owns no real estate, its operating companies, and
companies in which its affiliates may invest, own real estate. The return that
Security Capital achieves from its operating companies is dependent on the
performance of the real property investments held by such operating companies,
which are subject to varying degrees of risk. Real estate cash flows and values
are affected by a number of factors, including changes in the general economic
climate, local, regional or national conditions (such as an oversupply of
properties or a reduction in rental demand in a specific area), the quality and
philosophy of management, competition from other available properties and the
ability to provide adequate maintenance and insurance and to control operating
costs. Although Security Capital seeks to minimize these risks through its
market research and asset and property management capabilities, these risks
cannot be eliminated entirely. Real estate cash flows and values are also
affected by such factors as government regulations, including zoning, usage and
tax laws, interest rate levels, the availability of
 
                                       15
<PAGE>
 
financing, the possibility of bankruptcies of tenants and potential liability
under, and changes in, environmental and other laws. Since a significant
portion of the income from Security Capital's direct and indirect REIT
investees is derived from rental income and other payments from real property
(in excess of 97% of the 1996 total revenues for each such company, except in
the case of CarrAmerica and REGENCY for which such amounts were in excess of
92% of 1996 total revenues), their respective income and distributable cash
flow, and accordingly Security Capital's, would be adversely affected if a
significant number of tenants were unable to meet their obligations, or if such
operating companies were unable to lease properties on economically favorable
terms.
 
In addition, the market price of the Class B Shares may be affected by the
market prices of shares of Security Capital's real estate operating companies,
which in turn may be affected by risks generally associated with investments in
real estate, including risks associated with the acquisition and disposition of
real estate assets and the development or redevelopment of properties.
 
Debt Financing
To the extent Security Capital or one of its operating companies incur debt,
such company will be subject to the risks associated with debt financing,
including the risks that cash flow from operations will be insufficient to meet
required payments of principal and interest, that such company will be unable
to refinance any revolving line of credit or any current or future indebtedness
on its properties, that the terms of any such refinancings may not be as
favorable as the terms of existing indebtedness and that, due to a lack of
funds, such company may be unable to make necessary capital expenditures for
purposes such as renovations or releasing properties. If a property owned by
one of Security Capital's operating companies is mortgaged to secure payment of
indebtedness and the operating company is unable to meet its mortgage payments,
the property would be transferred to the mortgagee with a consequent loss of
income and asset value to the operating company.
 
Risks of Real Estate Development
Security Capital's operating companies have developed or commenced development
on properties (e.g., multifamily communities, distribution facilities and
extended-stay lodging facilities) and expect to develop additional properties
in the future. Real estate development involves significant risks in addition
to those involved in the ownership and operation of established properties,
including the risks that financing, if needed, may not be available on
favorable terms for development projects, that construction may not be
completed on schedule (resulting in increased debt service expense and
construction costs), that estimates of the costs of construction may prove to
be inaccurate and that properties may not be leased or rented on profitable
terms and therefore will fail to perform in accordance with expectations.
Timely construction may be affected by local weather conditions, local or
national strikes and by local or national shortages in materials, insulation,
building supplies and energy and fuel for equipment.
 
Renewal of Leases and Re-leasing of Space
Certain of Security Capital's operating companies, particularly those that
invest in multifamily communities and distribution facilities, are subject to
the risks that leases may not be renewed, space may not be re-leased or the
terms of such renewal or re-leasing may be less favorable than current lease
terms. If such operating companies were unable to promptly re-lease or renew
leases or if the rental rates upon such renewal or re-lease were significantly
lower than expected, their cash flow, and accordingly Security Capital's cash
flow, may be adversely affected.
 
Illiquidity of Real Estate Investments
Equity real estate investments are relatively illiquid and therefore may tend
to limit the ability of Security Capital's operating companies to react
promptly to changes in economic or other conditions. In addition, certain
significant expenditures associated with equity investments (such as mortgage
payments, real estate taxes, and operating and maintenance costs) are generally
not reduced when circumstances cause a reduction in income from the
investments. Further, Security Capital's operating companies that are REITs
must comply with safe harbor rules which enable a REIT to avoid punitive
taxation. Thus, the ability of the operating companies that are REITs to sell
assets to change their asset base is restricted by tax rules which impose
holding periods for assets and potential disqualification as a REIT upon
certain asset sales.
 
Regulation
Governmental authorities at the federal, state and local levels are actively
involved in the promulgation and enforcement of regulations relating to land
use and zoning restrictions. Regulations may be promulgated which could have
the effect of restricting or curtailing certain uses of existing structures or
requiring that such structures
 
                                       16
<PAGE>
 
be renovated or altered in some fashion. The establishment of such regulations
could have the effect of increasing the expenses and lowering the profitability
of any of the properties affected thereby. Security Capital does not believe
that any of these regulations will have a material impact on Security Capital
or its direct or indirect investees.
 
Changes in Laws
Increased costs resulting from increases in real estate, income or transfer
taxes or other governmental requirements generally may not be passed through
directly to residents, tenants or lessees, inhibiting the ability of Security
Capital's operating companies to recover such costs. Substantial increases in
rents, as a result of such increased costs, may affect the ability of a
resident, tenant or lessee to pay rent, causing increased vacancy. In addition,
changes in laws increasing potential liability for environmental conditions or
increasing the restrictions on discharges or other conditions may result in
significant unanticipated expenditures.
 
Uninsured Loss
Security Capital's operating companies carry comprehensive liability, fire,
flood, earthquake, extended coverage and rental loss insurance with respect to
their properties with policy specifications and insured limits customarily
carried for similar properties and which the operating companies believe are
appropriate under the circumstances. There are, however, certain types of
losses (such as from wars) that may be uninsurable or not economically
insurable. Should an uninsured loss or a loss in excess of insured limits
occur, such operating company could lose both its capital invested in and
anticipated profits from one or more properties.
 
HIGHLY COMPETITIVE BUSINESSES
 
There are numerous commercial developers, real estate companies and other
owners of real estate, including those that operate in the regions in which
Security Capital's operating companies' properties are located, that compete
with Security Capital's operating companies in seeking land for development,
properties for acquisition and disposition and tenants for properties. Security
Capital's operating companies compete on a regional and national basis with no
individual market material to Security Capital as a whole.
 
ATLANTIC and PTR each have a significant portion of their respective assets in
certain geographic markets. ATLANTIC has 29% and 11%, respectively, of its
assets, based on total expected investment, located in the Atlanta, Georgia and
Ft. Lauderdale/West Palm Beach, Florida markets. PTR has 18%, 14% and 11%,
respectively, of its assets, based on total expected investment, located in the
Southern California, Northern California and Phoenix, Arizona markets. As a
result, such operating companies are subject to increased exposure to the
economic and other competitive factors specific to those markets. See
"Business--Properties of the Operating Companies." All of the operating
companies' properties are located in developed areas that include other similar
properties. The number of competitive properties in a particular area could
have a material adverse effect on the operating companies' ability to lease
units and on the rents charged. In addition, other forms of properties provide
alternatives to tenants of the operating companies' properties (for example,
single family residential housing may be an alternative to multifamily
housing).
 
The global real estate securities management business of Security Capital will
compete for capital and investment opportunities with a large number of
investment management firms as well as certain insurance companies, commercial
banks and other financial institutions, some of which may have greater access
to capital and other resources and which may offer a wider range of services
than Security Capital. Real estate investment management firms can be formed
with relatively small amounts of capital and depend most significantly on the
continued involvement of their professional staff. The Company believes that
competition among real estate investment management firms is affected
principally by investment performance, development and implementation of
investment strategies, information technologies and databases and client
service performance.
 
NO PRIOR MARKET FOR CLASS B SHARES; SHARE PRICE FLUCTUATIONS
 
Prior to the Offering, there has been no public market for the Class B Shares.
There can be no assurance that an active trading market will develop for the
Class B Shares. From time to time, the stock market experiences significant
price and volume volatility, which may affect the market price of the Class B
Shares for reasons unrelated to Security Capital's performance. In addition,
the initial public offering price may not accurately reflect the market price
of the Class B Shares.

POTENTIAL ADVERSE EFFECT ON CLASS B SHARE PRICE OF SHARES AVAILABLE FOR FUTURE
SALE
 
Sales of a substantial number of Class B Shares, or the perception that such
sales could occur, could adversely affect the prevailing market price for Class
B Shares. Upon completion of the Offering, Security Capital will have
22,569,710 Class B Shares outstanding. All such shares may be sold by non-
affiliates in the public markets without limitation. In addition, upon
completion of the Offering, Security Capital expects to have 1,327,740 Class A
Shares outstanding, which will be convertible beginning January 1, 1998 into a
total of 66,387,000 Class B Shares, and 139,000 shares of Series A Preferred
Stock outstanding, convertible into a maximum of 105,896 Class A Shares. As of
August 31, 1997, Security Capital also had outstanding (i) approximately $715
million principal amount of its 2014 Convertible Debentures, convertible into
an aggregate of 683,771 Class A Shares, (ii) approximately $323 million
principal amount of its 2016 Convertible Debentures, convertible into an
aggregate of 279,941 Class A Shares, (iii) warrants to purchase 40,241 Class A
Shares and approximately $30 million principal amount of 2014 Convertible
Debentures (convertible into 29,142 Class A Shares) and (iv) options to
purchase 132,604 Class A Shares and approximately $45 million principal amount
of 2014 Convertible Debentures (convertible into 43,259 Class A Shares) under
Security Capital's employee benefit plans. At its August meeting, the Board
requested management of Security Capital to study various options to retire the
Convertible Debentures. Management is currently analyzing several options
including an exchange offer for, or a redemption of, the 2014 Convertible
Debentures although no assurance can be given that Security Capital will retire
some or all of the 2014 Convertible Debentures prior to maturity. All such
Class A Shares, and the Class B Shares into which they may be converted, may be
sold in the public markets in the future pursuant to registration rights or
available exemptions from registration. In addition, Security Capital has
issued Warrants to purchase a total of 8,928,572 Class B Shares, which
underlying Class B Shares may be sold by non-affiliates in the public markets
without limitation. See "Shares Available for Future Sale." No prediction can
be made regarding the effect of future sales of Class B Shares or Class A
Shares, or the conversion of Class A Shares into Class B Shares, on the market
price of Class B Shares.
 
IMPACT OF ENVIRONMENTAL REGULATIONS
 
Security Capital, through certain of its operating companies, is subject to
environmental and health and safety laws and regulations related to the
ownership, operation, development and acquisition of real estate. Under such
laws and regulations, Security Capital may be liable for, among other things,
the costs of removal or remediation of certain hazardous substances, including
asbestos-related liability. Such laws and regulations often impose liability
without regard to fault.
 
As part of its due diligence procedures, Security Capital's operating companies
have conducted Phase I environmental assessments on each of their respective
properties prior to their acquisition; however, there can be no assurance that
such assessments have revealed all potential environmental liabilities.
Security Capital is not aware of any environmental condition on any of its
operating companies' properties which is likely to have a material adverse
effect on Security Capital's financial position or results of operations;
however, there can be no assurance that any such condition does not exist or
may not arise in the future.
 
DILUTION
 
The pro forma net tangible book value per Class B Share of Security Capital's
assets after the Offering will be lower than the initial public offering price
per Class B Share in the Offering. Accordingly, persons acquiring Class B
Shares in the Offering will experience immediate dilution of $11.33 per Class B
Share (or $9.15 per Class B Share assuming conversion of the outstanding
Convertible Debentures) in the net tangible book value of Class B Shares
acquired in the Offering. See "Dilution." In addition, to the extent Warrants
are exercised for Class B Shares, the number of outstanding Class B Shares will
increase, and the interests of the shareholders who purchase in the Offering
will be diluted.

<PAGE>
 
                                USE OF PROCEEDS
 
The net proceeds to Security Capital from the sale of the Class B Shares
offered hereby, after payment of all expenses of the Offering, are expected to
be $592.7 million. The net proceeds will be used for the partial repayment of
outstanding bank indebtedness (approximately $175 million), the allocation of
capital to new businesses (approximately $300 million) and the remaining
amounts will be used for general corporate purposes.
 
At August 31, 1997, SC Realty, a wholly owned subsidiary of Security Capital,
had $165.5 million in outstanding borrowings under its $400 million revolving
line of credit with Wells Fargo. The weighted average interest rate on the line
of credit from January 1, 1997 through August 31, 1997 was 7.1808%. Borrowings
under the line of credit bear interest, at SC Realty's option, at either (i)
LIBOR plus a margin of 1.50% or (ii) the higher of the federal funds rate plus
a margin of .50% or Wells Fargo's prime rate, with interest payable monthly in
arrears. The line of credit is guaranteed by Security Capital and is secured by
its shares in PTR, SCI, ATLANTIC, SC-USREALTY and Homestead, as well as its
warrants to acquire shares of Homestead. At August 31, 1997, the aggregate
market value of the securities pledged pursuant to the line of credit was
approximately $3.0 billion. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations--Investing and Financing
Activities--Line of Credit."
 
                                DIVIDEND POLICY
 
Security Capital is not a REIT and is not required to make distributions to its
common shareholders. The declaration and payment of dividends by Security
Capital is subject to the discretion of the Board. Any determination as to the
payment of dividends will depend upon the results of operations, capital
requirements and financial condition of Security Capital and such other factors
as the Board deems relevant. The Company believes that there currently are
substantial investment opportunities available to Security Capital and, as a
result, the Board intends to follow a policy of retaining earnings to finance
Security Capital's growth and for general corporate purposes. Therefore,
Security Capital does not anticipate paying any cash dividends on the Class A
Shares or the Class B Shares in the foreseeable future.

                                    DILUTION
 
At June 30, 1997, Security Capital had a net tangible book value of $890.1
million, or $13.41 per Class B Share based on 66,357,500 outstanding Class B
Shares (assuming conversion of all Class A Shares outstanding on such date into
Class B Shares). Net tangible book value per Class B Share is defined as the
book value of the Company's tangible assets, less liabilities, minority
interests and Series A Preferred Stock, divided by the number of Class B Shares
outstanding.
 
After giving effect to the sale by Security Capital of 22,569,710 Class B
Shares in the Offering at the initial public offering price of $26.26 per share
(after deducting the underwriting discount and the estimated expenses
associated with the Offering and assuming SC-USREALTY and the unaffiliated
institutional investor participate in the Offering on the terms set forth on
the cover page of this Prospectus), Security Capital's pro forma net tangible
book value as of June 30, 1997 would have been $1.48 billion or $16.67 per
Class B Share (assuming conversion of all Class A Shares outstanding on such
date into Class B Shares), representing an immediate increase in net tangible
book value of $3.26 per Class B Share to the existing shareholders, and an
immediate dilution to new investors of $11.33 per Class B Share.
 
The following table illustrates this per share dilution:

(1) All existing shareholders have either purchased the Class A Shares as a

distribution of the 2014 Convertible Debentures during 1994. On a fully
converted basis, existing shareholders have paid an average price of $18.08 per
share.
 
The foregoing dilution information assumes no conversion of outstanding Series
A Preferred Stock, 2014 Convertible Debentures or 2016 Convertible Debentures
and no exercise of warrants and options, all of which are convertible into, or
exercisable for, Class A Shares or 2014 Convertible Debentures. If all such
convertible securities were converted into, or exercised for, Class A Shares,
an additional 1,314,503 Class A Shares (convertible into 65,725,150 Class B
Shares) would have been outstanding as of June 30, 1997 and the Company would
have reduced its liabilities by $1.1 billion and increased its shareholders'
equity by $1.4 billion as of such date. As a consequence, based on a pro forma
net tangible book value of $18.85 per Class B Share after the Offering and the
initial public offering price of $28.00 per Class B Share, dilution to
investors would have been $9.15 per Class B Share if all such convertible
securities were issued and converted into, or exercised for, Class B Shares.
 
Based on the assumptions set forth in the immediately preceding paragraph, the
comparison of consideration paid by existing shareholders to new investors
would be as follows as of June 30, 1997:

                                    BUSINESS
 
OVERVIEW AND STRATEGY
 
Security Capital is a real estate research, investment and operating management
company. Management has assembled a superior team of operating and investment
professionals to implement the firm's strategy. Prior to the Offering, Security
Capital was owned primarily by directors, officers, employees and 65 major
domestic and foreign institutional investors.
 
Security Capital's strategy is to create the optimal organization to lead and
profit from global real estate securitization. Security Capital will implement
this strategy by:
 
  . Providing leadership in real estate research conducted on a global basis.
    Security Capital's proprietary research, which is available to Security
    Capital's affiliates, provides a strong foundation for its capital
    deployment strategy.
 
  . Continuing to invest its capital in fully integrated, value-added
    operating companies that have strong prospects for sustained growth.
    Security Capital plans to utilize the results of its research to identify
    opportunities in which it can invest its capital in the start-up of
    highly focused, private operating companies with the objective of
    becoming publicly traded and having the prospect of dominating their
    respective niches. The Company currently is considering several new
    business initiatives, both domestically and globally, in which it has
    recently made or has agreed to make investments. While none of the new
    business initiatives is material at present to Security Capital's results
    of operations or financial condition, such initiatives are expected to be
    an important component of Security Capital's future growth. See "--Future
    Strategy." In addition, Security Capital will continue to make
    investments in public companies in which it can provide strategic and
    operating guidance and capital and thereby enable the companies to pursue
    an attractive growth strategy. See "--Operating Strategy--Security
    Capital Strategic Group."
 
  . Creating a global real estate securities management business.
 
The global real estate industry is in the early stages of a dramatic transition
from ownership in "passive hands" to becoming a securitized industry with a
more rational approach to capital allocation and operating management. As
public real estate investment enterprises become more prevalent, a greater
percentage of the industry's new capital is moving to publicly traded, fully
integrated, value-added operating companies. Securitized holdings offer
significant benefits to institutional and retail investors, including enhanced
liquidity, real-time pricing and the opportunity for optimal growth and
sustainable competitive rates of return.
 
Security Capital will deploy its capital (both its corporate and third-party
managed capital) in enterprises that emulate the operating characteristics of
the leading value-added operating companies in other highly competitive global
industries. As the shift toward securitization of real estate ownership leads
to a more rational system for deploying capital, the Company believes leading
real estate companies will commit significant dollars to research and
development to create value-added operating systems for application in
carefully selected, focused target markets. The Company believes leading real
estate companies will devote significant capital and energy to management
development programs, creating a strong corporate culture with succession plans
in place. The Company also believes leading real estate companies will consider
capital as a precious resource to be deployed utilizing evaluation processes
based on Economic Value-Added (EVA) or similar strategies. The shift toward
securitization creates unprecedented opportunities for Security Capital and its

integrated operating systems and implementing highly focused strategies, the
Company believes leading real estate companies can achieve sustainable

industries.

Security Capital Real Estate Research Group (RERG)
RERG produces real estate research for both the Investment Research Group and
Strategic Group. Research plays a key role in the process of deploying capital
through the long- and short-term evaluation of supply and demand for each real
estate property type in targeted geographic markets. The evaluations are based
on economic, demographic and market factors as well as proprietary demand and
supply models.
 
RERG conducts an economic base analysis for every major metropolitan market in
the United States. Economic base analysis identifies the key industry sectors
which drive a market's economy by exporting goods or services outside the area.
By examining the stability and growth potential of these industries, as well as
the diversity of their mix, RERG assesses the risks and long-term growth
prospects for that particular market. The demand models created by RERG for
each property type incorporate demographic factors such as population,
household income, age, education, employment and housing characteristics for an
area as small as one-sixteenth of a square mile in certain markets. The
economic and demographic analyses are translated into an overall evaluation of
the demand prospects for each property type in each market.
 
On a short-term basis, RERG monitors real estate market conditions such as
occupancy and rent growth to forecast the near-term (one to two years)
demand/supply balance of each property type in the market.

Security Capital (US) Management Group (CMG)
CMG manages or advises capital invested in focused funds that seek to maximize
total return over an intermediate time horizon of up to 42 months. CMG's
principal focus is on publicly traded real estate companies that it believes
should outperform the market due to factors such as an emerging new strategy or
opportunity, imminent changes in supply and demand that would affect asset
performance, market inefficiencies that result in mispriced securities or
consolidation opportunities. CMG, through its focused funds, will also commit
capital to private start-up companies that have significant prospects for
sustained growth, that can utilize both strategic and operating consulting and
capital, and that have the prospect of becoming public companies. CMG will
generally take ownership positions ranging from .5% to 4.99% of the equity
securities of its investees, except with respect to Security Capital Preferred
Growth Incorporated ("SC-PG"), in which case CMG may take larger ownership
positions.
 
CMG currently provides investment research and advice to Security Capital (EU)
Management S.A., the advisor to SC-USREALTY, in connection with certain
investments in publicly traded companies. In addition, CMG currently manages
Security Capital Employee REIT Fund ("SC-ERF") and SC-PG.
 
 . Security Capital U.S. Realty: Special Opportunity Investments Portfolio. SC-
USREALTY identifies publicly traded companies with solid growth prospects and
invests, through a wholly owned subsidiary, to realize attractive total returns
through dividends and share price appreciation. As of September 12, 1997, the
SC-USREALTY Special Opportunity Investments Portfolio had a fair market value
of $360 million. For the period from December 31, 1995 to September 12, 1997,
the SC-USREALTY Special Opportunity Investment Portfolio achieved an average
annual total return of approximately 42.7%, as measured in the manner required
by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") for U.S. mutual
funds, after the deduction of fees and expenses. The average annual total
return has been calculated based on the following principal assumptions: (i)
investments were made on the dates SC-USREALTY Special Opportunity Investments
Portfolio made its investments, (ii) dividends or other distributions, if any,
were immediately reinvested and (iii) the per share value of the investments on
September 12, 1997 is represented by the closing sales price of the shares on
such date on the principal stock exchange on which such shares are listed.
There can be no assurance that a comparable rate of return may be obtained in
the future.
 
 . Security Capital Employee REIT Fund (SC-ERF). As a matter of policy, Security
Capital employees are not permitted to invest in non-Security Capital related
real estate securities. Security Capital has committed to invest up to $100
million into a fund known as SC-ERF that will invest in real estate securities.
SC-ERF, which became effective with the Commission in April 1997, provides a
vehicle through which employees, directors and trustees of Security Capital and
its affiliates, their families and approved 401(k) plans of Security Capital
and its affiliates can invest in real estate securities. SC-ERF's long-term
objective is to achieve top-quartile returns as compared with other mutual
funds that invest in securities of publicly traded real estate companies in the
United States. As of September 12, 1997, Security Capital had invested $100.0
million in SC-ERF.
 
 . Security Capital Preferred Growth Incorporated (SC-PG). SC-PG is a private
real estate company formed in January 1997. SC-PG's objective is to make
intermediate-term investments in undervalued, high-potential real estate
operating companies primarily through convertible securities. These companies
would typically be in the second through fourth quartile of performance among
real estate operating companies. SC-PG seeks to provide these companies with an
opportunity for repositioning or growth by furnishing them with operating
guidance and access to capital. The management of SC-PG believes that these
types of investments will offer SC-PG an attractive dividend return and the
opportunity to participate in the value creation that may occur as the
companies in which it invests experience growth in cash flows and increases in
share prices. As of September 12, 1997, SC-PG has received commitments to
purchase $470.2 million of its common stock including Security Capital's
commitment of $50 million.

 . Security Capital EuroPacific Real Estate Shares (SC-EP). Security Capital has
committed to invest up to $50 million in a mutual fund known as SC-EP that will
invest in securities of real estate companies publicly traded outside the
United States. SC-EP is intended to be formed as a real estate securities
mutual fund and will be domiciled in the United States. SC-EP's investment
objective will be to obtain above average total returns over the short to
intermediate term, through investment in shares of public companies which are
engaged in real estate activities in Europe and the Asia Pacific region. Long
term, SC-EP's objective is to achieve top quartile total returns as compared to
other mutual funds that invest in real estate companies outside the United
States. SC-EP's investment policy will be driven by international real estate
market research and capital market intelligence of Security Capital (EU)
Management Group S.A. ("SC(EU)MG"), the adviser for SC-EP. The operating and
investment underwriting processes utilized for SC-EP by SC(EU)MG will parallel
those employed by other CMG affiliates.

Security Capital Strategic Group (SG)
SG provides overall business strategy and investment oversight (either directly
or through advisory agreements) to companies in which Security Capital has a
direct or indirect ownership position. Security Capital plans to pursue
investments in private companies that have highly focused business strategies
that management believes have prospects for sustained growth and may become
publicly traded. Security Capital expects to benefit as these companies
experience growth in cash flows and increases in share prices consistent with
similar direct investments that Security Capital has made since 1991 in PTR,
SCI, ATLANTIC, Homestead and SC-USREALTY and indirect investments made by SC-
USREALTY. No assurance can be given that Security Capital will achieve similar
results on future strategic investments.

(1) Ownership and market capitalization are as of September 12, 1997, and
assume contractual equity commitments by investors have been funded,
convertible instruments have been converted into common shares, and options and
warrants for common shares have been exercised. The resulting number of common
shares is multiplied by the closing price of the common shares on such date for
those companies listed on an exchange or, in the case of PACIFIC RETAIL, the
last private equity offering price. See "--Operating Companies Market Price
Information and Financial Performance."
(2) As of September 12, 1997, Security Capital's percentage ownerships in its
investees, based on common shares outstanding on such date, were 33% of PTR,
50% of ATLANTIC, 68% of Homestead, 43% of SCI and 33% of SC-USREALTY. Equity
market capitalization, as of September 12, 1997, based on common shares
outstanding was $2.2 billion for PTR, $1.1 billion for ATLANTIC, $444 million
for Homestead, $2.4 billion for SCI and $2.1 billion for SC-USREALTY.
(3) Ownership of Homestead assumes that all convertible mortgages have been
funded and converted into shares of Homestead common stock and that all
warrants to purchase shares of Homestead common stock have been exercised.
Ownership of Homestead does not include any ownership Security Capital may
obtain in Homestead upon conversion of convertible mortgages owned by PTR and
ATLANTIC through funding commitment agreements. See "Relationships with
Operating Companies--Homestead--Homestead Transaction."
(4) The European management and Board of Directors of SC-USREALTY receive
operating and investment advice from Security Capital (EU) Management S.A.,
which subcontracts certain research and advisory activities from its affiliates
CMG and SG.
(5) This company is an investee of SC-USREALTY through its subsidiary and is
not directly advised by Security Capital. The ownership percentage reflected is
that of SC-USREALTY.
 
For further information with respect to (i) Security Capital's direct ownership
interests in PTR, ATLANTIC, Homestead, SCI and SC-USREALTY, (ii) the historical
high and low sale prices of the common shares for such
 
                                       27

companies, as well as the cash dividends declared by such companies, (iii) the
average annual shareholder returns on investments in such companies, and
Security Capital's unrealized appreciation in its investment in the securities
of such companies, see "--Operating Companies Market Price Information and
Financial Performance" and "Relationships with Operating Companies."
 
For purposes of the following discussion, references to "compound annual
returns" for PTR, ATLANTIC, SCI and SC-USREALTY have been calculated based on
the following principal assumptions: (i) the beginning date of the measurement
period is the date on which Security Capital made its first investment (and, in
the case of PTR, became the REIT Manager thereof), (ii) the calculation
includes only Security Capital's initial investment, (iii) dividends received,
if any, were immediately reinvested in common shares and (iv) the per share
value of the investment on September 12, 1997 is represented by the closing
sales price of the shares on such date on the principal stock exchange on which
the shares are listed. There can be no assurance that comparable rates of
return may be obtained in the future by Security Capital or other investors. In
addition, references to "equity market capitalization" for each of the
companies listed below assumes contractual equity commitments by investors have
been funded, convertible instruments have been converted into common shares and
options and warrants for common shares have been exercised. The resulting
number of common shares is multiplied by the closing price on such date of the
common shares on the principal exchange on which the shares are listed.

acquisition, operation and long-term ownership of multifamily communities in
the growing markets of the western United States. PTR is focused on generating
long-term, sustainable growth in per share cash flow. PTR expects to achieve
long-term cash flow growth by maximizing the operating performance of its core
assets through value-added asset management and by executing a research-based
investment strategy that allows PTR to redeploy capital from existing assets
with limited growth prospects into targeted developments with optimal prospects
for growth. As of July 31, 1997, PTR's portfolio of multifamily communities
included 40,786 operating units, 6,672 units under construction and an
estimated 8,092 units in planning, owned or under control. In addition, PTR
owns or controls land for future development of an expected 3,300 additional
units. PTR has committed to fund certain mortgage loans for Homestead which are
convertible into Homestead common stock. Upon full funding of those mortgages,
PTR will have $221.3 million in principal amount of convertible mortgages which
will be convertible into a total of 19,246,402 shares of Homestead common
stock, which would represent approximately 35% of the fully converted common
shares of Homestead. Since February 1991, when Security Capital took its
initial position in PTR, through September 12, 1997, PTR's equity market
capitalization has increased from $34 million to $2.4 billion. From February
1991 through September 12, 1997, the compound annual return for PTR was 31.0%.
 
 . Security Capital Atlantic Incorporated (NYSE: SCA). ATLANTIC's objective is
to be the preeminent real estate operating company for the development,
acquisition, operation and long-term ownership of multifamily communities in
its 12-state southeastern target market. ATLANTIC is focused on generating
long-term, sustainable growth in per share cash flow. ATLANTIC is building its
portfolio by implementing a research-driven investment strategy that includes
opportunistic acquisitions of existing properties and the development of
carefully planned moderate income multifamily communities. As of July 31, 1997,
ATLANTIC's portfolio included 19,265 operating multifamily units, 4,983 units
under construction and an estimated 5,280 units in planning. ATLANTIC has
committed to fund certain mortgage loans for Homestead which are convertible
into Homestead common stock. Upon full funding of those mortgages, ATLANTIC
will have $98.0 million in principal amount of convertible mortgages which will
be convertible into a total of 8,524,215 shares of Homestead common stock,
which would represent approximately 15% of the fully converted common shares of
Homestead. At September 12, 1997, ATLANTIC had an equity market capitalization
of $1.1 billion. Since its inception in December 1993 through September 12,
1997, the compound annual return for ATLANTIC was 14.3%.
 
 . Homestead Village Incorporated (American Stock Exchange: HSD). Homestead's
objective is to become the preeminent developer, owner and operator of moderate
priced, extended-stay lodging properties throughout the United States.
Homestead was created in 1992 through extensive research and development and
became a public company in October 1996. Homestead seeks to achieve long-term
growth in cash flow by focusing on infill locations in major employment centers
with strong demographics. As of July 31, 1997, Homestead had developed, owned
and operated 45 properties representing in the aggregate 6,143 units and had 44
properties under construction totaling 5,922 units. At September 12, 1997,
Homestead had an equity market capitalization of $1.0 billion. From its spin-
off in October 1996 through September 12, 1997, Homestead had an annualized
return of 26.2%. This return has been calculated based on the following
principal assumptions: (i) the investment was made
 
                                       28
<PAGE>
 
on October 17, 1996 (and recorded at the cost of the assets contributed by PTR,
ATLANTIC and Security Capital) and (ii) the per share value of the investment
on September 12, 1997 is represented by the closing sales price of the shares
on the American Stock Exchange. There can be no assurance that such a rate of
return will be obtained by Security Capital or other investors.
 
 . Security Capital Industrial Trust (NYSE: SCN). SCI, a highly focused Denver-
based real estate operating company, is the largest publicly held, global owner
and operator of distribution properties headquartered in the United States
based on equity market capitalization. SCI's primary objective is to achieve
long-term, sustainable growth in per share cash flow. The cornerstone of SCI's
operating strategy is the SCI International Operating System(TM) which is
committed to creating shareholder value through its dedication to serving the
1,000 largest users of distribution facilities globally and providing
exceptional customer service at the international, national, regional and local
levels. SCI's investment strategy is to acquire generic distribution facilities
and develop full-service, master-planned distribution parks in metropolitan
areas that demonstrate strong demographic growth and excellent distribution
real estate fundamentals. SCI recently announced transactions in Mexico and
Europe and the acquisition, through an entity in which SCI has a majority
economic interest, of the refrigerated warehousing and distribution operations
of Christian Salvesen, Inc. in the United States and Canada. At July 31, 1997,
SCI had distribution properties operating or under development in 37 national
markets and five international markets, totaling 94.2 million square feet. At
September 12, 1997, SCI had an equity market capitalization of $2.8 billion.
Since October 1992 through September 12, 1997, the compound annual return for
SCI was 25.2%.
 
 . Strategic Hotel Capital Incorporated ("SHC"). SHC was recently formed and is
focused on becoming the preeminent owner of upscale hotel properties on a
global basis. SHC was created in May 1997 and, ultimately as a public entity,
will seek to achieve a 15% to 20% compound annual total rate of return over the
long-term. Management of SHC is principally focused on maximizing the value of
its investments by providing active and intensive oversight to its select
operators in targeted growth markets throughout the world. Each of (i) Security
Capital, and (ii) Whitehall Street Real Estate Limited Partnership VII
(together with certain other affiliates of Goldman, Sachs & Co.) have committed
to invest $300 million of capital on an equal basis in SHC. At September 12,
1997, Security Capital had invested $28 million in SHC, and two hotels had been
purchased by SHC.
 
 . Security Capital Global Realty (SC-GR). Security Capital has made an initial
commitment to invest $300 million in SC-GR which will make strategic
investments in securities of real estate companies which operate outside the
United States. SC-GR will follow the strategy of SC-USREALTY (described below)
as it relates to investment strategy, management, governance, operating
strategies, capital policies and stock listings. The only contrast to SC-
USREALTY is that SC-GR will invest in companies which operate outside the
United States. SC-GR will be a research-driven, European-based company which
will have the objective of becoming the preeminent publicly traded real estate
operating company that will own strategic control positions in highly focused,
fully integrated real estate operating companies outside the United States. SC-
GR will initially focus its investment activities on real estate companies
which operate in Europe or the Asia-Pacific region. SC-GR expects to deploy its
capital into real estate operating companies seeking long-term, sustainable per
share cash flow growth. Each company in which SC-GR invests will seek to be
recognized by the public marketplace as a highly focused, fully integrated
operating company and a leader among its peers. Similar to SC-USREALTY, SC-GR
will be organized under Luxembourg law. The European management and Board of
Directors of SC-GR will receive operating and investment advice from Security
Capital Global Management S.A., which will subcontract certain research and
advisory activities from its affiliates including CMG and SG.
 
 . Security Capital U.S. Realty (Amsterdam Stock Exchange: SCUSR). SC-USREALTY's
objective is to become Europe's preeminent real estate operating company
owning, through a wholly owned subsidiary, significant strategic positions in
leading value-added real estate operating companies based in the United States.
Through a proactive ownership role, appropriate board representation and
ongoing consultation, SC-USREALTY expects to influence the business strategies
of the companies in which it invests to increase per share cash flow. The
European management and Board of Directors of SC-USREALTY receive operating and
investment advice from Security Capital (EU) Management S.A., which
subcontracts certain research and advisory activities from its affiliates
including CMG and SG. Security Capital has advised SC-USREALTY that it does not
intend to make its own direct strategic investments in equity-oriented REITs in
the future, other than those in which Security Capital currently owns a
strategic ownership position. At September 12, 1997, SC-USREALTY had an equity
market capitalization of $2.1 billion. Since its inception in October 1995
through September 12, 1997, the compound annual return for SC-USREALTY was
22.5%. The Board has authorized an additional investment of $50 million in SC-
USREALTY.
 
                                       29
<PAGE>
 
SC-USREALTY seeks to have 65% to 85% of its assets deployed in long-term
strategic ownership positions in real estate operating companies organized as
REITs and real estate operating companies which are expected in due course to
become REITs.
 
SC-USREALTY also seeks to acquire up to 10% (but generally less than 5%) of the
shares of publicly traded real estate companies and to hold such positions for
an intermediate term of 12 to 18 months (or sooner if the targeted returns are
realized more quickly) with the objective of obtaining attractive total returns
through dividends and share price appreciation. SC-USREALTY seeks to have 10%
to 25% of its assets deployed in such publicly traded positions and, as of
September 12, 1997, SC-USREALTY had $360 million (market value) of publicly
traded positions in 27 companies. See "--Security Capital Investment Research
Group--SC-USREALTY: Special Opportunity Investments Portfolio."
 
SC-USREALTY also seeks to invest up to 10% of its assets in securities of the
Company to enhance the diversification of its asset base and to enable European
investors in SC-USREALTY to participate in the full activities of Security
Capital. As of September 12, 1997, SC-USREALTY owned 52,431 Class A Shares and
$55 million principal amount of 2016 Convertible Debentures. SC-USREALTY
purchases securities of the Company at arm's-length prices. SC-USREALTY has
expressed an interest in acquiring approximately $55 million of Class B Shares
in the Offering.
 
  SC-USREALTY's Strategic Investees:
 . CarrAmerica Realty Corporation (NYSE: CRE). CarrAmerica is focused on
becoming the leading owner, operator and developer of value-driven office
properties in key growth markets throughout the United States. Management seeks
to achieve these objectives by offering corporate customers exceptional
customer service on a national basis. At September 12, 1997, CarrAmerica had an
equity market capitalization of $2.0 billion.
 
 . Storage USA, Inc. (NYSE: SUS). Storage USA is well positioned to become the
preeminent owner, operator and developer of self-storage facilities in the
United States. Storage USA's strategy is to maximize rents, occupancy and
profitability at each of its facilities by offering outstanding value and
customer service in this highly fragmented industrial real estate niche. At
September 12, 1997, Storage USA had an equity market capitalization of $1.2
billion.
 
 . Regency Realty Corporation (NYSE: REG). REGENCY is focused on becoming the
preeminent owner and operator of grocery-and-drug-store-anchored neighborhood
infill shopping centers in selected growth markets of the eastern United
States. REGENCY is utilizing the equity from SC-USREALTY's investment to take
advantage of attractive acquisition and development opportunities in its target
market. At September 12, 1997, REGENCY had an equity market capitalization of
$756 million.
 
 . Pacific Retail Trust (PACIFIC RETAIL). PACIFIC RETAIL is building a portfolio
and implementing a business strategy that is designed to make it the leading
owner, operator and developer of grocery-and-drug-store-anchored neighborhood
infill shopping centers in the western United States. A fully integrated
operating company, PACIFIC RETAIL plans to go public in 1998, after it reaches
critical mass in several key growth markets. At September 12, 1997, PACIFIC
RETAIL had a private equity market capitalization of $614 million, based on the
per share sales price obtained in PACIFIC RETAIL's most recent private offering
of its common shares.
 
SC-USREALTY has committed to invest in two real estate operating companies:
City Center Retail Trust, a REIT which intends to invest in urban retail
development properties ($150 million commitment for an approximate 100%
ownership interest); and Urban Growth Property Trust, a REIT which intends to
invest in strategically located urban properties including parking garages, as
well as corporate and retail land leases ($150 million commitment for an
approximate 100% ownership interest). Although both companies currently are
privately held, it is expected that both companies ultimately will conduct
initial public offerings. As of August 31, 1997, SC-USREALTY had invested $65
million in City Center Retail Trust.

Security Capital Financial Services Group (FSG)
 . SCGroup Incorporated ("SCGroup"). SCGroup provides operational support,
accounting services, human resources and benefits administration, and technical
support to the companies in which Security Capital has direct investments. As a
result, Security Capital's operating companies realize the benefits of
economies of scale by consolidating several management activities in a
centralized operations center.
 
 . Security Capital Markets Group Incorporated ("Security Capital Markets
Group"). Security Capital Markets Group is focused on efficiently accessing
institutional capital through private placements for certain private and public
companies within the Security Capital organization. This gives institutional
investors the early opportunity to invest in Security Capital's real estate
operating companies that Security Capital believes will ultimately achieve
preeminent positions in their respective market niches. Equally importantly,
the professionals in the Security Capital Markets Group maintain open lines of
communication with institutional investors that have taken ownership positions
in Security Capital's private and public companies.
 
FUTURE STRATEGY
 
Since its inception, Security Capital has committed capital to research and
development in order to identify opportunities where it can invest in the
start-up of new businesses or new investment services with the objective that
they will ultimately become publicly traded companies. Once opportunities are
identified and thoroughly researched, Security Capital commits substantial
additional capital to the development of operating systems and human capital.
By pursuing a strategy of making a significant investment in advance of the
start-up company's initial operations, as well as making ongoing investments in
operating and people systems as the company grows, Security Capital seeks to
ensure that the start-up company can successfully implement an attractive
growth strategy.
 
In 1993, initial research began on an investment strategy which was referred to
as SCG Box X and which was announced in 1995 as SC-USREALTY. As of September
12, 1997, SC-USREALTY had an equity market capitalization of $2.1 billion. See
"Business--Security Capital Strategic Group--Security Capital U.S. Realty."
 
After four years of research and development, Security Capital announced the
formation of Homestead (previously known as SCG Box X-1) in 1996. As of
September 12, 1997, approximately $416 million of value had been created for
the shareholders of PTR, ATLANTIC and Security Capital as a result of the
formation and spin-off of Homestead as measured by (i) the equity market
capitalization of Homestead securities held by PTR and ATLANTIC (or their
respective shareholders) and Security Capital less (ii) the aggregate cost
basis of the assets contributed by PTR, ATLANTIC and Security Capital to
Homestead in the spin-off transaction on October 17, 1996, the cost basis of
the Homestead convertible mortgages to be funded by PTR and ATLANTIC and the
cost basis of the Homestead warrants to purchase common shares distributed to
Security Capital and the shareholders of PTR and ATLANTIC. As of September 12,
1997, Homestead had an equity market capitalization of $1.0 billion. See
"Business--Security Capital Strategic Group--Homestead Village Incorporated."
 
Security Capital is considering the following new business initiatives in which
it has recently made or agreed to make investments. While none of these
initiatives is material at present to Security Capital's results of operations
or financial condition, an important new component of Security Capital's future
growth is expected to come from these and future new business initiatives which
are in varying stages of research and development. No assurances can be given
that these initiatives will be successful.
 
During 1995, Security Capital began the implementation of its research on two
new investments: SCG Box X-3 and Strategic Hotel Capital Incorporated
(previously known as SCG Box X-5). In addition, SC-USREALTY has announced that
its board has approved investment levels of $150 million in the niches of high-
density urban retail (City Center Retail Trust), parking facility ownership
(Urban Growth Property Trust) and parking facility operations (Parking Services
International Incorporated), which new businesses recently began operations.

Investees."
 
                                       31
<PAGE>
 
In 1996, Security Capital committed to make an initial $50 million investment
in SC-PG (previously known as SCG Box X-4) and committed to make a $100 million
investment in SC-ERF (previously known as SCG Box X-2). In 1997, Security
Capital committed to make an initial $300 million investment in SC-GR,
committed to make a $50 million investment in SC-EP and continued its research
and development activities with respect to its additional new investments. See
"Business-- Security Capital Management Group." The Company's policy is to
announce new business initiatives following extensive research and development
and after the Company has committed to make investments in excess of $25
million in the new business.
 
FINANCIAL STRUCTURE AND STRATEGY
 
Security Capital's objectives are to maximize its return on investment and its
operating cash flows after tax. As a consequence, Security Capital views its
structure as consisting of two divisions: the Capital Division, which generates
dividends and capital gains, and the Services Division, which generates service
and management fees. In order to achieve its financial objectives, Security
Capital plans to balance its investments between growth-oriented companies that
do not pay a dividend and dividend-paying real estate entities. Security
Capital plans to prudently utilize leverage which will be serviced by the
dividends received from the Capital Division and service and management fees
received from the Services Division. Borrowings will be deployed into the
highest return opportunities in either the Capital Division or Services
Division. Security Capital expects to achieve its financial objectives by
continuing to be one of the leading creators of fully integrated, value-added
public real estate companies and by becoming the leading global investment
research/investment manager in superior public real estate companies not
affiliated with Security Capital.
 
The financial structure and strategy of Security Capital is illustrated in the
following diagram:

The following table presents the average annual return for all common share
investors in PTR, ATLANTIC, SCI and SC-USREALTY for the periods indicated
through September 12, 1997, based on the following principal assumptions: (i)
the beginning date of the measurement period is the date on which Security
Capital made its first investment in the applicable company (and, in the case
of PTR, became the REIT Manager thereof), (ii) the calculation includes all
common share offerings at the time proceeds were received by the applicable
company since the beginning date of the measurement period, (iii) dividends
received, if any, were immediately reinvested in common shares and (iv) the per
share value of the investment on September 12, 1997 is represented by the
closing sales price of the common shares on such date on the principal exchange
on which the shares are listed. There can be no assurance that comparable rates
of return on investments will be obtained by Security Capital or other
investors in these companies in the future.

EMPLOYEES
 
Security Capital has approximately 350 employees, none of whom are covered by
collective bargaining agreements. Security Capital believes its relations with
its employees to be good.
 
COMPETITION
 
There are numerous developers, operators, real estate companies and other
owners of real estate that compete with Security Capital's operating companies
in seeking land for development on which to operate their respective
businesses. Security Capital's operating companies compete on a regional and
national basis with no individual market material to Security Capital as a
whole. All of the properties of Security Capital's operating companies are
located in developed areas that include various competitors. The number of
competitive properties could have a material adverse effect on Security
Capital's operating companies and on the rents charged by them. Security
Capital's operating companies may be competing with others that have greater
resources and whose officers and directors have more experience than the
officers, directors and trustees of the Company's operating companies.
 
                                       34
<PAGE>
 
The global real estate securities management business of Security Capital will
compete for capital and investment opportunities with a large number of
investment management firms as well as certain insurance companies, commercial
banks and other financial institutions, some of which may have greater access
to capital and other resources and which may offer a wider range of services
than Security Capital. Real estate investment management firms can be formed
with relatively small amounts of capital and depend most significantly on the
continued involvement of their professional staff. The Company believes that
competition among real estate investment management firms is affected
principally by investment performance, development and implementation of
investment strategies, information technologies and databases and client
service performance.
 
PROPERTIES OF THE OPERATING COMPANIES
 
The following discussion sets forth, with respect to the operating companies in
which Security Capital has a direct ownership, the markets in which each of
such companies operates as well as a description of the general competitive
conditions faced by such companies. Information regarding permit levels is
based on U.S. Bureau of the Census statistics. No single property is materially
important to any of the operating companies, and there are no mortgages, liens
or other encumbrances against any properties which are material to any such
operating company. Whereas none of the operating companies has at present any
material plans for the renovation or improvement of properties in operation,
each operating company budgets for regular maintenance, repair and upgrades to
its properties. As set forth below, each such company is actively engaged in
the development of additional properties. In the opinion of management of
Security Capital, the properties of the operating companies are adequately
covered by insurance.
 
PTR
PTR's multifamily communities are located in 23 metropolitan areas in 12
states. The table below summarizes the geographic distribution of PTR's
multifamily communities which are operating or under construction, based on

PTR selectively develops multifamily communities where land costs, demographics
and market trends indicate a high likelihood of achieving sustainable operating
results and consistent cash flow growth. This disciplined

approach to development has produced multifamily property developments with
desired characteristics including state-of-the-art product, locations with

communities in planning and owned represented 41.0% of PTR's multifamily
portfolio, based on total expected investment. At June 30, 1997, PTR's

There are numerous commercial developers, real estate companies and other
owners of real estate that compete with PTR in seeking land for development,
communities for acquisition and disposition and residents for communities. All
of PTR's multifamily communities are located in developed areas that include
other multifamily communities. The number of competitive multifamily
communities in a particular area could have a material adverse effect on PTR's
ability to lease units and on the rents charged. In addition, other forms of
single family and multifamily residential communities provide housing
alternatives to residents and potential residents of PTR's multifamily
communities.
 
The Southern California and Northern California markets have attractive
economic fundamentals which has produced revenue growth for PTR. Rent growth in
California markets has resulted from strong demand caused by job growth, high
occupancy rates and limited new supply of multifamily units in most markets
(Source: California REALFACTS). Permit levels for multifamily units have
recently increased in certain California markets which may lead to a greater
level of supply in certain of those markets in 1997. Occupancy rates and rent
growth for Phoenix fell slightly in 1996 from very strong levels of growth in
1994 and 1995 due to increases in supply in certain submarkets in 1995 and 1996
(Source: Real Data, Inc.). Permit levels in certain submarkets in Phoenix
increased in 1996 indicating greater additions to existing inventory in 1997.

ATLANTIC has selectively developed multifamily communities where land costs and
demographic and market trends indicate a high likelihood of achieving
attractive, sustainable operating results. Through June 30, 1997, ATLANTIC's
completed developed communities and its owned communities under construction
and in planning together comprised 38.5% of its multifamily portfolio, based on
total expected investment cost. At June 30, 1997, the development portion of
ATLANTIC's multifamily portfolio consisted of the following:

There are numerous commercial developers, real estate companies and other
owners of real estate that compete with ATLANTIC in seeking land for
development, communities for acquisition and disposition and residents for

communities. All of ATLANTIC's multifamily communities are located in developed
areas that include other multifamily communities. The number of competitive
multifamily communities in a particular area could have a material adverse
effect on ATLANTIC's ability to lease units and on the rents charged. In
addition, other forms of single family and multifamily residential communities
provide housing alternatives to residents and potential residents of ATLANTIC's
multifamily communities.
 
The Atlanta market has experienced substantial job growth in recent years but
has also attracted strong competition from institutional capital sources and
other developers and operators for the acquisition or development of
multifamily communities. There have been substantial increases to existing
inventory in this market and lower job growth after the 1996 Summer Olympics
which has resulted in a temporary oversupply of multifamily product in this
market (Source: Dale Henson Associates). Multifamily permits decreased in 1996,
indicating a lower level of additional inventory in 1997 for this market. The
Ft. Lauderdale/West Palm Beach market has experienced high net in-migration and
expanding business with South and Latin American countries (Source: U.S. Bureau
of the Census). Although this market has high barriers to entry, there has been
strong investment interest in this market by institutional capital sources,
which has resulted in a temporary oversupply of multifamily product (Source:
Reinhold Wolff Economic Research). ATLANTIC expects this oversupply will be
absorbed within six to twelve months.

Homestead's strategy for future growth includes developing new properties and
efficiently delivering them to the market place. Homestead expects to have a
total of 79 properties operational by the end of 1997. Homestead plans to
continue an active development program thereafter. Homestead's plans call for
the average property to have approximately 136 extended-stay rooms and to take
approximately eight to ten months to construct.
 
The table below (dollars in thousands) illustrates the growth in the Homestead
product resulting from this strategy since the Homestead product was conceived
and developed.

(1) Total expected investment represents budgeted development cost for
properties under construction and properties in planning and owned. Properties
in planning and owned represent projects where land has been acquired and pre-
construction planning activities are in progress. Budgeted development cost
includes the cost of land, fees, permits, payments to contractors,
architectural and engineering fees and interest and property taxes to be
capitalized during the development period. Land held for future development or
for sale, which is less than 2% of property assets based on historical cost as
of June 30, 1997, are not included above.
 
Competition within the extended-stay segment of the lodging industry has begun
to increase because the growth prospects of the segment have attracted numerous
participants from both within and outside the industry. While the majority of
currently operating extended-stay properties are oriented toward the upscale
and mid-price segments, there have been numerous public announcements of
aggressive development plans for companies that operate within all segments of
the industry. Homestead may compete for development sites with any or all of
these entities, some of which may have greater financial resources than
Homestead and better relationships with lenders and sellers. These entities
also may be able to accept more risk than Homestead believes it can prudently
manage. Further, there can be no assurance that new or existing competitors
will not significantly reduce their room rates or offer greater convenience,
services or amenities or significantly expand or improve or develop properties
in a market in which Homestead competes, thereby adversely affecting
Homestead's operations.

SCI selectively develops distribution properties where land costs, demographics
and market trends indicate a high likelihood of achieving sustainable operating
results and consistent cash flow growth. This disciplined approach to
development has produced distribution property developments with desired
characteristics including state-of-the-art product and attractive returns.
Through June 30, 1997, completed developments, properties under construction
and properties in planning and owned represented 35.2% of SCI's distribution
property portfolio, based on total expected investment. At June 30, 1997, SCI's

There are numerous other industrial properties located in close proximity to
each of SCI's properties. The amount of rentable space available in any target
market city could have a material effect on SCI's ability to rent space and on
the rents charged. In addition, in many of SCI's submarkets, institutional
investors and owners and developers of industrial facilities compete for the
acquisition, development and leasing of industrial space. Many of these persons
have substantial resources and experience.
 
SCI operates nationally and internationally and has no markets with a
concentration of investment in excess of 10% of its total portfolio investment.
In SCI's major markets, absorption has exceeded completion in each of the years
1992 through 1996 and vacancy rates have decreased during the same period
(Source: CB Commercial/Torto Wheaton Research). Competition for acquisition of
existing distribution facilities from institutional capital sources and other
REITs has increased substantially in the past several years.
 
PROPERTIES OF SC-USREALTY INVESTEES
 
The following discussion sets forth, with respect to the real estate operating
companies in which SC-USREALTY has acquired a material long-term strategic
ownership position, the markets in which each of such companies operates as
well as a description of the general competitive conditions faced by such
companies. No single property is materially important to any of the strategic
investees of SC-USREALTY and there are no mortgages, liens or other
encumbrances against any properties which are material to any such strategic
investee of SC-USREALTY. Whereas none of the strategic investees of SC-USREALTY
has at present any material plans for the renovation or improvement of
properties in operation, each strategic investee of SC-USREALTY budgets for
regular maintenance, repair and upgrades to its properties. To the extent set
forth below, certain investees are actively engaged in the development of
additional properties that would be material to the investee. In the opinion of
management of SC-USREALTY, the properties of the strategic investees of SC-
USREALTY are adequately covered by insurance.

CarrAmerica believes that, as a result of its national operating system, market
research capabilities, access to capital, and experience as an owner, operator
and developer of real estate, it will continue to be able to identify and
consummate acquisition opportunities and to operate its portfolio more
effectively than competitors without such capabilities. CarrAmerica, however,
competes in many of its target markets with other real estate operators, some
of whom may have been active in such markets for a longer period than
CarrAmerica. In CarrAmerica's major markets of Washington, D.C. and North
California, rental rates for office buildings have increased and vacancy rates
have decreased over the last five years (Source: CB Commercial/Torto Wheaton

Storage USA has recently taken advantage of its in-house development capability
to selectively develop new facilities in areas where suitable acquisitions may
not be available. The development activities consist primarily of additions to
existing facilities and construction of new facilities. Since 1985, Storage USA
and predecessor organizations have developed and constructed 21 facilities, 15
of which Storage USA owns.

Competition exists in all of the market areas in which the facilities are
located. Storage USA principally faces competitors who seek to attract tenants
primarily on the basis of lower prices. However, Storage USA usually does not
seek to be the lowest-priced competitor. Rather, based on the quality of its
facilities and its customer service-oriented managers and amenities, Storage
USA's strategy is to lead particular markets in terms of prices.
 
The pool of self-storage users has increased in recent years due to greater
consumer awareness, cost reduction programs by businesses, increased mobility
in the general population and an increasing mix of products and services
offered by self-storage facilities. Although circumstances vary among markets,
Storage USA believes that current demand for self-storage facilities is strong
when compared to the available supply of self-storage space. At the same time,
Storage USA believes that few operators of self-storage facilities are
currently constructing additional facilities or have access to the capital and
the development and construction expertise necessary to do so. Therefore,
Storage USA believes that the supply of self-storage facilities will remain
relatively limited for some time, and that the industry generally will continue
to experience strong occupancy and increasing rental rates. Storage USA
believes that its access to capital markets as a public company, the systems
and methods it has developed and the skilled personnel it has gathered and
trained for acquiring and managing self-storage facilities with potential for
increased occupancy and rental rates, and its expertise in facility development
and construction, place Storage USA in a position to capitalize on these market
conditions for the benefit of its shareholders.
 
Certain of Storage USA's competitors operate more facilities and have
substantially greater financial resources than Storage USA. The three largest
self-storage managers, based on industry data as to the number of facilities
operated (whether or not the facilities are owned), are: (1) Public Storage
Management, Inc. (67 million square feet); (2) Storage USA (19.8 million square
feet); and (3) U-Haul International, Inc. (19.7 million square feet) (Source:
Inside Self-Storage, August 1997 edition). Storage USA is the second largest
self-storage manager, with 19.8 million square feet in 290 facilities as of
June 30, 1997. These other entities may generally be able to accept more risk
than Storage USA can prudently manage, including risks with respect to the
geographic proximity of its investments and the payment of higher facility
acquisition prices. This competition may generally reduce the number of
suitable acquisition opportunities offered to Storage USA and increase the
price required to be able to consummate the acquisition of particular
facilities. Further, Storage USA believes that competition from entities
organized for purposes substantially similar to Storage USA's objectives could
increase. Nevertheless, Storage USA believes that the operations, development
and financial experience of its executive officers and directors and its
customer-oriented approach to management of self-storage facilities should
enable Storage USA to compete effectively.

(1) For operating properties and the one property under redevelopment,
represents the total expected investment. At June 30, 1997, PACIFIC RETAIL had
four new retail centers in planning representing 436,000 square feet.
 
There are numerous shopping center developers, real estate companies and other
owners of real estate that operate in the Pacific and Southwest regions that
compete with PACIFIC RETAIL in seeking retail tenants to occupy vacant space,
for the acquisition of shopping centers, and for the development of new
shopping centers. However, ownership of neighborhood infill centers
historically has been highly fragmented, with ownership local as institutional
capital has generally avoided the relatively small size of the centers and
their management-intensive nature. In addition, such centers targeted by
PACIFIC RETAIL are generally located within densely populated neighborhoods
where little or no land is available for development of competing centers.

(1) Includes eight retail centers under construction or redevelopment with a
total expected investment of approximately $61.4 million.
 
There are numerous shopping center developers, real estate companies and other
owners of real estate that operate in the Southeast that compete with REGENCY
in seeking retail tenants to occupy vacant space, for the acquisition of
shopping centers, and for the development of new shopping centers. However,
ownership of neighborhood infill centers historically has been highly
fragmented, with local ownership, as institutional capital has generally
avoided the relatively small size of the centers and their management-intensive
nature. In addition, such centers targeted by REGENCY are generally located
within densely populated neighborhoods where little or no land is available for
development of competing centers.

PROPERTIES OF SECURITY CAPITAL
 
The principal offices of Security Capital are located at 125 Lincoln Avenue in
Santa Fe, New Mexico and its telephone number is (505) 982-9292. Security
Capital's affiliates also have administrative offices in El Paso, Texas. The
Santa Fe office is leased from an unaffiliated third party and the El Paso
offices are leased from SCI at an annual rental of $802,577. Security Capital
and its affiliates operate out of other offices in the United States (Atlanta,
Chicago, Denver and New York) and Europe (Brussels, London and Luxembourg).
Security Capital believes its properties are adequately insured. Although SCI,
PTR, ATLANTIC and Homestead own an extensive number of properties, no single
property is materially important to Security Capital and its affiliates.
 
TRADEMARKS AND SERVICE MARKS
 
The Company uses a number of trademarks, including "Security Capital" and
variants thereof. All trademarks, service marks and copyright registrations
associated with the business of the Company are registered in the name of the
Company and, if not maintained, expire over various periods of time beginning

description of the license agreements. The Company intends to defend vigorously
against infringement of its trademarks, service marks and copyrights.
 
LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
 
Security Capital and its subsidiaries are parties to certain legal proceedings
arising in the ordinary course of their business, none of which are expected to
have a material adverse impact on Security Capital.
 
THE MERGERS
 
In December 1996, management of Security Capital proposed to the Board that
Security Capital exchange its REIT management companies and property management
companies for common shares of ATLANTIC, PTR and SCI, respectively. In January
1997, based on the direction of the Board, Security Capital proposed to the
Board of Directors of ATLANTIC and the Board of Trustees of each of PTR and
SCI, that each of ATLANTIC, PTR and SCI become internally managed. On March 24,
1997, Security Capital and each of ATLANTIC, PTR and SCI entered into the
Merger Agreements. Pursuant to the Merger Agreements, on September 9, 1997,
Security Capital caused its affiliates providing REIT management and property
management services to each of ATLANTIC, PTR and SCI, respectively, to be
merged into a newly formed subsidiary of each such entity with the result that
all personnel employed in the REIT management and property management
businesses became officers and employees of the REITs, respectively, as
follows:
 
  .  Security Capital transferred its interests in its wholly owned
     subsidiaries, Security Capital (Atlantic) Incorporated and SCG Realty
     Services Atlantic Incorporated (which provide Security Capital's REIT
     management and property management services to ATLANTIC), to a newly
     formed subsidiary of ATLANTIC in exchange for 2,306,591 shares of
     ATLANTIC's common stock.
 
  .  Security Capital transferred its interests in its wholly owned
     subsidiaries, Security Capital Pacific Incorporated and SCG Realty
     Services Incorporated (which provide Security Capital's REIT management
     and property management services to PTR), to a newly formed subsidiary
     of PTR in exchange for 3,295,533 common shares of PTR.
 
  .  Security Capital transferred its interests in its wholly owned
     subsidiaries, Security Capital Industrial Incorporated and SCI Client
     Services Incorporated (which provide Security Capital's REIT management
     and property management services to SCI), to a newly formed subsidiary
     of SCI in exchange for 3,692,023 common shares of SCI.
 
  .  Security Capital licensed to each of ATLANTIC, PTR and SCI the
     trademarks and tradenames used in their respective businesses.
 
  .  The shareholders of Security Capital approved each Merger Agreement on
     April 17, 1997. The shareholders of ATLANTIC, PTR and SCI approved their
     respective Merger Agreements on September 8, 1997 and the Mergers closed
     on September 9, 1997.
 
                                       46

  .  The number of shares of ATLANTIC common stock and common shares of PTR
     and SCI issued to Security Capital was based on the public market value
     of the shares on the five-day period prior to August 5, 1997, the record
     date for mailing proxy statements seeking shareholder approval for the
     transactions.
 
  .  In order to allow the common shareholders to maintain (and, to the
     extent a shareholder oversubscribed for common shares pursuant to the
     oversubscription privilege described below, to increase) their relative
     percentage ownership in ATLANTIC, PTR and SCI, respectively,
     concurrently with the proxy solicitation seeking approval of the
     Mergers, each of ATLANTIC, PTR and SCI conducted a rights offering
     entitling its common shareholders, other than Security Capital, to
     purchase additional common shares. Shareholders were entitled to
     subscribe for common shares not purchased by other common shareholders
     pursuant to an oversubscription privilege. The rights offering price was
     at a discount to the price at which shares were issued to Security
     Capital under the respective Merger Agreements. The exercise prices in
     the rights offerings, the prices of the common shares being issued to
     Security Capital in the Mergers, the closing prices of the common shares
     of August 5, 1997 (the day prior to the record dates for the Mergers)
     and the five-day trailing average closing prices on August 5, 1997 were
     as follows:

</TABLE>
 
    Any common shares not subscribed for by common shareholders in the
    rights offerings were made available for purchase by third parties. The
    rights offerings were fully subscribed and closed on September 12, 1997
    and each of PTR and SCI sold an additional 1,486,686 and 994,070 common
    shares, respectively, to cover oversubscriptions and third party demand
    which sales closed on September 15, 1997.
 
  .  As part of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreements,
     Security Capital issued, pro rata, Warrants to acquire 8,928,572 Class B
     Shares to the common equity holders (e.g., holders of common shares,
     convertible preferred shares and, in the case of SCI, units) of each of
     ATLANTIC, PTR and SCI, other than Security Capital, after the closing of
     the Mergers. The Warrants are being issued as an incentive for the
     common shareholders of ATLANTIC, PTR and SCI to vote in favor of the
     transactions, to broaden Security Capital's shareholder base, to enable
     Security Capital to raise additional equity capital at a relatively low
     cost through the exercise of Warrants and to enable Security Capital to
     raise additional equity capital in the long run by preserving and
     enhancing its goodwill with the shareholders of ATLANTIC, PTR and SCI.
     The Warrants have an exercise price equal to the initial public offering
     price of the Class B Shares in the Offering. The Warrants have been
     approved for listing on the NYSE under the symbol "SCZ WS". The Warrants
     expire September 18, 1998 and contain customary provisions to protect
     holders from dilution in certain events including certain distributions
     and certain sales of shares at less than market price.
 
  .  In connection with voting on the Mergers, the shareholders of each of
     ATLANTIC, PTR and SCI approved their respective 1997 Long-Term Incentive
     Plan. Following such approval, (i) the officers and key employees of
     ATLANTIC were granted options to purchase 1,276,525 common shares and
     purchased 591,346 common shares of ATLANTIC, (ii) the officers and key
     employees of PTR were granted options to purchase 1,851,791 common
     shares and purchased 813,430 common shares of PTR, and (iii) the
     officers and key employees of SCI were granted options to purchase
     3,072,857 common shares and purchased 1,356,834 common shares of SCI.

(1) The amounts shown are based on the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The
material assumptions incorporated in the Black-Scholes model for estimating the
value of the options include the following: exercise prices of $1,139 equal to
the estimated fair market value of the Class A Shares on the date of grant;
average expected option term of seven years; interest rate of 6.32% which
represents the interest rate on the date of grant on a U.S. Treasury security
with a maturity date corresponding to the option term; expected volatility of
20% calculated based on (i) the annualized weekly volatility of Berkshire
Hathaway Class B shares over the period of May 1996 to February 1997, (ii)
monthly Class A Shares estimated fair market values for 1995 and 1996, (iii)
consideration of the volatility of various publicly traded REITs and (iv) an
estimate of Security Capital's weighted-average volatility; and dividends at
the rate of $0 per Class A Share. The actual value, if any, an option holder
will realize upon exercise of an option will depend on the excess of the market
value of the Company's Class A Shares over the exercise price on the date the
option is exercised. There is no assurance the value realized by an option
holder will be at or near the value estimated by the Black-Scholes model.
(2) Represents options to purchase 60,000 shares of Homestead common stock at
$10 per share which were granted on October 15, 1996 to Mr. Dressler by
Homestead, and which expire on October 15, 2006. The options vest ten percent
in the second year after the date of grant, twenty percent in the third year
after the date of grant, thirty percent in the fourth year after the date of
grant and forty percent in the fifth year after the date of grant.
(3) The amounts shown are based on the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The
material assumptions incorporated in the Black-Scholes model in estimating the
value of the options include the following: an exercise price of $10 per share
equal to the estimated fair market value of a share of Homestead common stock
on the date of grant; average expected option term of 5.5 years; a risk-free
interest rate of 6.23%; no expected dividend yield; and expected volatility of
37%. The actual value, if any, an optionee will realize upon exercise of an
option will depend on the excess of the market value of the shares over the
exercise price on the date the option is exercised. There can be no assurance
that the value realized by an optionee will be at or near the value estimated
by using the Black-Scholes model.

OUTSIDE DIRECTORS PLAN
 
On September 17, 1996, the Board approved the Security Capital Group
Incorporated Outside Directors Plan (the "Outside Directors Plan"). The Outside
Directors Plan has been filed as an exhibit to the registration statement of
which this Prospectus forms a part and the following summary of the material
terms of the Outside Directors Plan is qualified in its entirety by reference
to the actual terms thereof.
 
The purpose of the Outside Directors Plan is to enable the directors of
Security Capital who are not employees or officers of Security Capital or any
of its affiliates ("Outside Directors") to increase their ownership of Security
Capital and thereby further the identity of their interests with those of
Security Capital's other shareholders. To achieve the foregoing objective, the
Outside Directors Plan provides for grants of options ("Options") to purchase
Class A Shares. The Secretary of Security Capital (the "Administrator")
administers the Outside Directors Plan with a view to Security Capital's best
interests and the Outside Directors Plan's objectives. The Administrator has
authority to adopt administrative guidelines, rules and regulations relating to
the Outside Directors Plan and to make all determinations necessary or
advisable for the implementation and administration of the Outside Directors
Plan.
 
The number of Class A Shares reserved for issuance upon exercise of Options
granted under the Outside Directors Plan is 7,000. The Class A Shares subject
to the Outside Directors Plan may be currently authorized but unissued Class A
Shares or treasury Class A Shares held or subsequently purchased by Security
Capital, including Class A Shares purchased in the open market or in private
transactions. If Security Capital shall effect any subdivision or consolidation
of Class A Shares, payment of a stock dividend, stock split, combination of
Class A Shares or recapitalization or other increase or reduction of the number
of Class A Shares outstanding without receiving compensation therefor in money,
services or property, then the Administrator shall adjust: (i) the number of
Class A Shares available under the Outside Directors Plan; (ii) the number of
Class A Shares available under any Outside Directors Plan limits; (iii) the
number of Class A Shares subject to any outstanding Options; (iv) the number of
Class A Shares subject to future grant; and (v) the per share exercise price
under any outstanding Option.
 
On September 17, 1996, each Outside Director was granted an option to purchase
150 Class A Shares at an exercise price of $1,066 per share, except a recently
appointed Outside Director who was granted options to purchase 75 Class A
Shares at an exercise price of $1,066 per share, the fair market value of the
Class A Shares on the date of the grant. On January 1, 1997, each Outside
Director was granted an Option to purchase 150 Class A Shares at an exercise
price of $1,237 per share, the fair market value of the Class A Shares on such
date. On January 1 of each year, an Outside Director serving on such date will
be granted an Option to purchase 150 Class A Shares at an exercise price equal
to the fair market value of the Class A Shares on such date. In the event an
Outside Director is appointed during the year, such person will receive an
award reduced to reflect the portion of the year such person will serve as an
Outside Director.
 
Each Option becomes exercisable one year from the date of grant, or earlier in
the event of death or disability of the director. Each Option shall expire on
the earlier of: (i) the ten-year anniversary of the date of grant; (ii) the
three-month anniversary of the director's termination for any reason other than
death, disability or retirement; or (iii) the one-year anniversary of the
director's termination by death, disability or retirement. Options are not
transferable prior to exercise, except as designated by the director by will or
by the laws of descent and distribution. Notwithstanding the previous sentence,
the Administrator may permit Options under the Outside Directors Plan to be
transferred to or for the benefit of the director's family.
 
If Security Capital is reorganized, merged or consolidated or is party to a
plan or exchange with another corporation, pursuant to which reorganization,
merger, consolidation or plan of exchange the shareholders of Security Capital
receive any shares of stock or other securities or property, or Security
Capital shall distribute securities of another corporation to its shareholders,
there shall be substituted for the Class A Shares subject to outstanding
Options an appropriate number of shares of each class of stock or amount of
other securities or property which were distributed to the shareholders of
Security Capital in respect of such Class A Shares; provided that, upon the
occurrence of a reorganization of Security Capital or any other event described
in this paragraph, any successor to Security Capital shall be substituted for
Security Capital.
 
The Outside Directors Plan was approved by the shareholders of Security Capital
at a special meeting of shareholders in April 1997 and may be amended or
terminated at any time by the Board.

1995 OPTION PLAN
 
The following description of certain provisions of the Security Capital Group
Incorporated 1995 Option Plan (the "1995 Option Plan") is qualified in its
entirety by reference to the 1995 Option Plan, a copy of which is filed as an
exhibit to this registration statement.
 
General
With respect to Options granted prior to December 3, 1996, the 1995 Option Plan
provided for the granting of Options to purchase Class A Shares in tandem with
Options to purchase 2014 Convertible Debentures. The Options must be exercised
in tandem and must be in a unit. With respect to Options granted on or after
December 3, 1996, the 1995 Option Plan provides for the granting of Options to
purchase only Class A Shares. The Compensation Committee administers the 1995
Option Plan. The Compensation Committee determines the key and emerging key
employees of Security Capital or its subsidiaries or affiliates to whom awards
under the 1995 Option Plan will be granted ("Participants") and the terms and
conditions of such awards. Each member of the Compensation Committee must be a
"non-employee" as such term is defined in Rule 16b-3 promulgated under Section
16 of the Exchange Act.
 
Options
An Option may be granted so as to qualify for treatment as an incentive stock
option (an "Incentive Option") pursuant to Section 422 of the Code, or so as
not to so qualify (a "Non-Qualified Option"). The exercise price (the "Option
Price") for each Option shall be determined by the Compensation Committee and
shall not be less than the greater of the fair market value of the underlying
Class A Shares on the date of the grant of the Option or the par value of the
underlying shares. The full purchase price of each Class A Share and 2014
Convertible Debentures purchased upon the exercise of any Option shall be paid
at the time of exercise. The Option Price shall be payable in cash. In
addition, Participants who own Class A Shares and 2014 Convertible Debentures
for at least six months may surrender such shares or debentures (valued at fair
market value as of the day such shares or debentures are tendered) for all or a
portion of the Option Price. No Option may be exercised unless cash or
previously purchased Security Capital securities are paid for the Option Price.
 
Subject to certain adjustments described below, Options for up to 139,716
shares of Class A Shares (representing 5.3% of the outstanding Class A Shares
on a fully diluted basis as of June 30, 1997) may be granted. Class A Shares
issuable on conversion of the 2014 Convertible Debentures are included in such
maximum number of shares for which Options may be granted. Class A Shares
issued upon exercise of Options granted under the 1995 Option Plan may be
either authorized and unissued shares or shares issued and thereafter acquired
by Security Capital. Class A Shares allocated to an Option which expires or
terminates without the issuance of Class A Shares may be allocated to new
Options granted under the 1995 Option Plan.
 
If Security Capital shall effect any subdivision or consolidation of Class A
Shares or other capital readjustment, payment of stock dividend, stock split,
combination of Class A Shares or recapitalization or other increase or
reduction of the number of Class A Shares outstanding without receiving
compensation therefor, then the Compensation Committee shall adjust (i) the
number of Class A Shares available under the 1995 Option Plan, (ii) the number
of Class A Shares subject to outstanding Options, and (iii) the per share price
under any outstanding Option. If Security Capital is reorganized, merged or
consolidated or is party to a plan of exchange with another corporation,
pursuant to which reorganization, merger, consolidation or plan of exchange,
the shareholders of Security Capital receive any shares of stock or other
securities or property, or Security Capital shall distribute securities of
another corporation to its shareholders, there shall be substituted for the
Class A Shares subject to outstanding Options an appropriate number of shares
of each class of stock or amount of other securities or property which were
distributed to the shareholders of Security Capital in respect of such Class A
Shares, subject to the following: (i) if the Compensation Committee determines
that the substitution described in this sentence would not be fully consistent
with the purposes of the 1995 Option Plan or the purposes of the outstanding
Options under the 1995 Option Plan, the Compensation Committee may make such
other adjustments to the Options to the extent that the Compensation Committee
determines such adjustments are consistent with the purposes of the 1995 Option
Plan and of the affected Options, (ii) all or any of the Options may be
cancelled by the Compensation Committee on or immediately prior to the
effective date of the applicable transaction, but only if the Compensation
Committee gives reasonable advance notice of the cancellation to each affected
Participant, and only if either (A) the Participant is permitted to exercise
the Option in full for a reasonable period prior to the effective date of the
cancellation or (B) the Participant receives payment or other benefits that the
Compensation Committee determines to be reasonable compensation for the value
of the cancelled Options, and (iii) upon the occurrence of a reorganization of
Security Capital or any other event described in this sentence, any successor
to Security Capital shall be substituted for Security Capital to the extent
that Security Capital and the successor agree to such substitution. Finally,
upon the sale to, or exchange with, a third party unrelated to Security Capital
of all or substantially all of the assets of Security Capital, all Options
shall be cancelled. If Options are cancelled, then, with respect to any
affected Participant, either (i) the Participant shall be provided with
reasonable advance notice of the cancellation, and the
 
                                       59
<PAGE>
 
Participant shall be permitted to exercise the Option in full for a reasonable
period prior to the effective date of the cancellation, or (ii) the Participant
shall receive payment or other benefits that the Compensation Committee
determines to be reasonable compensation for the value of the cancelled
Options.
 
Subject to earlier termination as described below, the expiration date for each
Option shall be determined by the Compensation Committee, but the expiration
date with respect to any Option shall be no later than the earliest to occur
of: (i) the ten-year anniversary of the date on which the Option is granted;
(ii) if the Participant's termination occurs by reason of death, disability or
retirement, the one-year anniversary of the date of termination, except in the
event of termination due to death or disability, all Options become immediately
exercisable; (iii) if the Participant's termination occurs for reasons other
than death, disability, retirement or cause, the three-month anniversary of
such date of termination; and (iv) if the Participant's termination occurs for
cause, the date of termination.
 
In the event that (i) a Participant's employment is terminated by Security
Capital or a successor to Security Capital or an affiliated entity which is his
or her employer for reasons other than cause following a Change in Control (as
defined in the 1995 Option Plan) of Security Capital or (ii) the 1995 Option
Plan is terminated by the Company or its successor following a Change in
Control without provision for the continuation of outstanding Options, all
Options which have not otherwise expired shall become immediately exercisable.
 
Options granted under the 1995 Option Plan are not transferable other than by
will, by the laws of descent and distribution or, to the extent provided by the
Compensation Committee, pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order. To
the extent that the Participant who receives an Option under the 1995 Option
Plan has the right to exercise such Option, the Option may be exercised during
the lifetime of the Participant only by the Participant. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Compensation Committee may permit Options under the 1995 Option
Plan to be transferred to or for the benefit of the Participant's family,
subject to such limits as the Compensation Committee may establish. However, in
no event shall an Incentive Option be transferable to the extent that such
transferability would violate the requirements applicable to such Option under
Section 422 of the Code.
 
The Compensation Committee may provide the Participant with the right to
receive a replacement Option, in Class A Shares only, for the number of Class A
Shares and 2014 Convertible Debentures used to satisfy the Participant's
minimum tax obligations upon exercise of the original Option. In order to
receive the replacement Option, the original Option must be exercised prior to
termination of the Participant's employment. A replacement Option shall be
granted on the date of exercise of the original Option to which it relates with
an Option Price equal to the fair market value on the date of the grant of the
replacement Option. Additionally, a replacement Option shall have the same
expiration date as the original Option to which it relates and shall be
exercisable no earlier than six months after its grant date.
 
Amendment and Termination
The 1995 Option Plan may, at any time, be amended or terminated by the Board,
provided that, subject to the provision relating the adjustment of Class A
Shares, no amendment or termination may materially adversely affect the rights
of any Participant or beneficiary under any Option granted under the 1995
Option Plan prior to the date such amendment is adopted by the Board.
 
OTHER OPTION PLANS
 
Security Capital's predecessors also adopted the Security Capital Realty
Investors Incorporated Option Plans A and B (each a "Realty Option Plan") and
the Security Capital Group Incorporated 1991 and 1992 Option Plans A and the
1991 and 1992 Option Plans B (each a "Group Option Plan"). The Realty Option
Plans provide for the grant of options to purchase Class A Shares. In 1994, to
reflect a distribution of debt securities to shareholders, all of the
outstanding options under the Realty Option Plans were adjusted to add a tandem
right to purchase 2014 Convertible Debentures. Each of the Group Option Plans
provides for the grant of tandem options to purchase Class A Shares and 2014
Convertible Debentures. Generally, all of the plans contain terms substantially
similar to the 1995 Option Plan except that the Group 1991 and 1992 Option
Plans A and B provide for the automatic grant of options to purchase Class A
Shares in tandem with 2014 Convertible Debentures. Each Class A Share under an
option must be exercised in tandem with a specified face amount of 2014
Convertible Debentures (referred to as a "Unit"). The number of Class A Shares
reserved for issuance pursuant to options under the Realty Option Plans A and B
and the Group 1991 and 1992 Option Plans A and the 1991 and 1992 Option Plans B
(including Class A Shares issuable upon the conversion of the 2014 Convertible
Debentures) are 16,366, 3,845, 9,982, 29,946, 7,010 and 21,031, respectively.
Of such shares, 313, 0, 0, 0, 0 and 0, respectively, remain available for the
granting of Options thereunder.

                      MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
                OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the "Selected
Financial Information" and the financial statements included elsewhere in this
Prospectus. Historical results and percentage relationships set forth in
"Selected Financial Information" and the consolidated financial statements of
Security Capital are not indicative of the future operations of Security
Capital.
 
OVERVIEW
 
Security Capital engages in real estate research, investment and operating
management. Security Capital's strategy is to create the optimal organization
to lead and profit from global real estate securitization. Security Capital has
invested in various operating and other entities (the Capital Division) and
provides various management and financial services through a Services Division.
The Capital Division invests in real estate-related companies with the
objective of generating capital gains and growing dividends. The Services
Division provides strategic guidance, research, investment analysis,
acquisition and development services, asset management, property management,
capital markets services and legal and accounting services for the companies in
which Security Capital and its affiliates have invested.
 
Security Capital has obtained its income historically from two sources: (1)
Security Capital's share of earnings in ATLANTIC, PTR, SCI, SC-USREALTY,
Homestead and SC-ERF some of which Security Capital accounts for by the equity
method where it owns less than a 50% controlling interest (PTR, SCI and SC-
USREALTY) and others of which are consolidated in Security Capital's
consolidated financial statements (ATLANTIC, Homestead and SC-ERF) and (2)
financial services revenues earned by the Real Estate Research Group, the
Capital Management Group and the Financial Services Group and, prior to the
Mergers, the REIT management and property management companies. Revenues from
the Services Division are only reflected in Security Capital's consolidated
financial statements if they were earned from Security Capital investees
accounted for by the equity method. Services Division revenues earned from
consolidated investees are eliminated in the Company's consolidated financial
statements. Services Division revenues earned from PTR and SCI have
historically been based upon a percentage of the cash flow from operations or a
percentage of revenues, as defined in the applicable REIT management and
property management agreements, respectively. See "Relationships with Operating
Companies--PTR--PTR REIT Management Agreement," "--PTR Property Management,"
"--SCI--SCI REIT Management Agreement" and "--SCI Property Management."
 
SC-USREALTY, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles,
accounts for its investments at market value or estimated fair value (depending
on whether the investment is publicly traded) and reflects changes in such
values in its statement of income pursuant to fair value accounting principles.
The Company accounts for its investment in SC-USREALTY using the equity method
and, as a consequence, the Company's results of operations are affected by
changes in the fair value of SC-USREALTY's investments. SC-USREALTY values its
investments in publicly traded companies at market determined by using closing
market prices as of the relevant balance sheet date. SC-USREALTY values its
investments in private companies at fair value, generally determined at cost,
or an appropriate lower value if the investment is not performing as expected.
If substantial additional capital is raised by an investee from independent
third parties in a private placement, SC-USREALTY values its investment at the
price at which that capital was raised when a substantial percentage of the new
subscriptions have been funded. In addition, through an advisory relationship
with SC-USREALTY, the Services Division also earns advisory fee revenues based
on a percentage of the fair value of SC-USREALTY's investments (not including
short-term investments and investments in Security Capital). See "Relationships
with Operating Companies-- SC-USREALTY--Advisory Agreement" and "--Sub-Advisory
Agreement."
 
SC-ERF, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, accounts
for its investments at market value and reflects changes in such values in its
statement of income pursuant to fair value accounting principles. All of its
investments are in publicly traded real estate companies located in the United
States.
 
Effective January 1, 1995, the predecessor of Security Capital, Security
Capital Realty Incorporated, acquired Security Capital Group Incorporated.
Subsequently, the merged entity was renamed Security Capital Group
Incorporated. As part of the 1995 Merger, Security Capital acquired the
Services Division. See Note 1 to the
 
                                       62
<PAGE>
 
Company's consolidated financial statements included herein. From 1992 until
the 1995 Merger, Security Capital Realty Incorporated elected to be taxed as a
REIT and, accordingly, made cash distributions to its shareholders. On March
23, 1995, the merger of PACIFIC with and into PTR (the "PTR Merger") was
completed. See "Relationships with Operating Companies--PTR--Merger and Public
Offerings" and Note 3 to the Company's consolidated financial statements
included herein. On October 17, 1996, Security Capital, ATLANTIC and PTR spun-
off their respective extended-stay lodging assets to Homestead. See
"Relationship with Operating Companies--Homestead--Homestead Transaction" and
Note 3 to the Company's consolidated financial statements included herein.
 
In connection with the Mergers, Security Capital exchanged its interests in the
applicable REIT management companies and property management companies for
common shares of ATLANTIC, PTR and SCI, respectively. Although the effects of
completion of the Mergers on the Company's future consolidated results of
operations are complex, the Company expects reductions in Services Division
revenues relating to the sale of the REIT management and property management
companies for PTR and SCI to be substantially offset by decreases in Company-
level personnel and other costs attributable to the operation of such companies
and increases in capital investments revenues attributable to its ownership of
additional common shares of PTR and SCI.
 
Please refer to the Index to Financial Statements for the audited financial
statements of PTR, SCI and SC-USREALTY, Security Capital's unconsolidated
affiliates that are accounted for by the equity method.
 
1996 COMPARED TO 1995
 
CAPITAL DIVISION INVESTMENTS
 
Dividends Received
Security Capital's dividends received increased $19.0 million, or 21%, from
$89.6 million in 1995 to $108.6 million in 1996.
 
Equity in earnings of less than 50% owned investees
Security Capital's share of SCI's earnings increased 21% from $21.0 million in
1995 to $25.4 million in 1996. This increase was primarily attributable to an
increase in the amount of distribution space owned and leased by SCI (80.6
million square feet at December 31, 1996 compared to 58.5 million square feet
at December 31, 1995) and increased rental rates on renewal leases for
previously occupied space, and was partly offset by a small decrease in SCI's
occupancy level (91.2% as of December 31, 1996 compared to 93.5% as of December
31, 1995). At December 31, 1996 and 1995, Security Capital's ownership interest
in the outstanding common shares of SCI was 46% and 48%, respectively.
 
Security Capital's share of PTR's earnings increased 62% from $24.6 million in
1995 to $39.9 million in 1996. This increase was primarily attributable to a
substantial increase in the number of multifamily properties owned by PTR
(42,702 operating units at December 31, 1996 compared to 38,737 operating units
at December 31, 1995), and significant gains ($37.5 million) on sales of
properties in 1996. At December 31, 1996 and 1995, Security Capital's ownership
interest in the outstanding common shares of PTR was 36% and 38%, respectively.
 
Security Capital's share of SC-USREALTY's earnings increased substantially from
$0.1 million in 1995 to $103.2 million in 1996. SC-USREALTY effectively
commenced its investment activities in October 1995, and at December 31, 1996,
SC-USREALTY had investments at cost of $1.18 billion with a fair market value
of $1.43 billion, resulting in unrealized appreciation of $250 million which is
accounted for by SC-USREALTY pursuant to fair value accounting principles. In
addition, SC-USREALTY recorded net investment income (defined as dividends and
other investment income net of administration expenses, advisor fees, taxes and
interest) of $16.4 million in 1996. At December 31, 1996 and 1995, Security
Capital's ownership interest in the outstanding common stock of SC-USREALTY was
39% and 32%, respectively.
 
Rental Operations--from greater than 50% owned consolidated investees
 
Rental Revenues
Rental revenues increased $42.3 million, or 41%, from $103.6 million in 1995 to
$145.9 million in 1996. This increase was primarily attributable to an increase
in the number of multifamily units owned and operated by
 
                                       63
<PAGE>
 
ATLANTIC (19,241 operating units at December 31, 1996 compared to 15,823
operating units at December 31, 1995), coupled with stable occupancies
(approximately 95%) in both 1996 and 1995. Also accounting for part of the
increase in rental revenues is the consolidation of Homestead after the spin-
off transaction completed on October 17, 1996 by Security Capital, ATLANTIC and
PTR of their extended-stay lodging assets. Homestead generated $8.2 million in
revenues for the two and one-half month period ended December 31, 1996.
 
Other Income, Net
Other income consists of interest and miscellaneous income of $3.4 million and
$1.8 million in 1996 and 1995, respectively, and in 1996 includes miscellaneous
gains on sales of ATLANTIC properties.
 
Rental Expenses
Rental expenses increased by $17.8 million, or 44%, to $58.3 million in 1996
from $40.5 million in 1995. The increase was primarily attributable to the
increase in the number of ATLANTIC's operating multifamily communities
discussed previously. ATLANTIC's rental expenses, which include the expenses of
the ATLANTIC property manager, increased $13.7 million (excluding REIT and
property management fees) in 1996 compared to 1995. Homestead's rental expenses
were $4.1 million for the period from October 17, 1996 to December 31, 1996.
 
SERVICES DIVISION
 
Revenues
Services Division revenues increased from $49.4 million in 1995 to $77.5
million in 1996. Services Division revenues are only reflected in the Company's
consolidated financial statements if they were earned from investees in which
Security Capital owns less than a 50% interest. Financial services revenues
earned from PTR and SCI are based on a percentage of the cash flow from
operations or on a percentage of revenues, as defined by the REIT and property
management agreements, respectively. Through the Advisory Agreement (as defined
below) with SC-USREALTY, Security Capital earns revenues based on a percentage
of the fair value of SC-USREALTY's investments (not including short term
investments and investments in Security Capital). The increase of $28.1 million
in Services Division revenues in 1996 as compared to 1995 was primarily
attributable to growth in operations at each of the Company's non-consolidated
investees. In particular, financial services revenues earned from SCI increased
$13.8 million, financial services revenues earned from PTR increased $3.8
million and advisory revenues earned from SC-USREALTY increased $7.9 million.
The remaining services revenues of $2.6 million were earned by Security Capital
Markets Group. Services Division revenues and associated expenses will be
reduced substantially following the Mergers. See "--Overview."
 
Expenses
Services Division expenses increased by $23.0 million, or 41%, in 1996 to $79.3
million from $56.3 million in 1995. The increase was primarily attributable to
growth of the REIT and property management companies, including the hiring of
additional professionals. In particular, expenses applicable to the SCI and PTR
REIT and property management companies and the advisor to SC-USREALTY increased
by $9.2 million, $7.6 million and $1.6 million, respectively. In addition, the
aggregate expenses of the Capital Management Group and Security Capital Markets
Group increased by $4.6 million. As outlined in the above discussion regarding
revenues and expenses, the Services Division has incurred operating losses in
1996 and 1995. Security Capital has made and will continue to make substantial
investments in personnel, operating systems and research capabilities in order
to take advantage of future growth opportunities. Such opportunities are
expected to generate increased revenues that will result in operating income.
Services Division expenses will be reduced following the Mergers as a result of
the transfer of personnel employed by Security Capital to PTR and SCI. See "--
Overview."
 
DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION
Total depreciation and amortization for Security Capital was $26.6 million and
$18.1 million in 1996 and 1995, respectively. Of those amounts, $22.1 million
and $15.9 million represented depreciation and amortization from rental
operations (i.e., ATLANTIC and Homestead) in 1996 and 1995, respectively.
Depreciation for ATLANTIC increased $4.9 million to $20.8 million in 1996 from
$15.9 million in 1995, an increase of 31%, due to the increase in the number of
operating multifamily communities between 1995 and 1996. Depreciation and
amortization for Homestead was $1.3 million for the two and one-half month
period ended December 31, 1996. The remaining depreciation and amortization of
$4.5 million and $2.2 million in 1996 and 1995, respectively, is attributable
to the Services Division and the administrative support functions, representing
an increase of $2.3 million over such depreciation and amortization for 1995 of
$2.2 million. The $2.3 million increase between 1995 and 1996 is a result
 
                                       64
<PAGE>
 
of additional depreciation on furniture, fixtures and equipment (consisting
primarily of computer and communications equipment) acquired in connection with
the expansion of the Services Division and Security Capital's decision to fund
additional investments in information technology.
 
INTEREST EXPENSE
Security Capital's consolidated interest expense consists of interest on the
2014 Convertible Debentures and 2016 Convertible Debentures, interest on
revolving lines of credit which are obligations of Security Capital and
ATLANTIC and interest on mortgage notes payable which are obligations of
ATLANTIC and Homestead. Interest expense for 1996 and 1995 is summarized as
follows:

Debenture interest increased as a result of the issuance of 2016 Convertible
Debentures in 1996 totalling $226.5 million as well as the issuance of an
additional $185 million of 2014 Convertible Debentures during 1995. See the
discussion of "Convertible Debt" in Note 4 to the Company's consolidated
financial statements included herein.
 
ATLANTIC's mortgage interest expense increase in 1996 was the result of an
increase in average mortgage debt outstanding.
 
ATLANTIC's line of credit interest expense increase in 1996 was primarily
attributable to an increase in the average outstanding balance ($204.3 million
in 1996 as compared to $178.3 million in 1995) and was partially offset by a
lower weighted-average interest rate (7.39% in 1996 as compared to 7.92% in
1995). The increase was also attributable to increased amortization of loan-
related costs.
 
The overall increase in interest expense for ATLANTIC was offset by an increase
in capitalized interest of $5.8 million in 1996 over 1995. The increase in
capitalized interest was attributable to ATLANTIC's increased development
activity.
 
Homestead's mortgage interest expense for 1996 was attributable to Homestead's
borrowing under its funding commitment agreement with PTR for development of
extended-stay lodging facilities. Interest expense was recorded for the period
from October 17, 1996, the date of the spin-off transaction, through December
31, 1996. Interest expense for Homestead was also affected by the amortization
of deferred financing costs and other loan-related costs incurred as a result
of the spin-off.
 
GENERAL, ADMINISTRATIVE AND OTHER
General, administrative and other expenses increased by $12.4 million, or 61%,
in 1996 to $32.6 million from $20.2 million in 1995. This increase results
primarily from the consolidation of Homestead's accounts ($2.5 million), the
inclusion of ATLANTIC's provision for a possible loss on investments ($2.5
million), increased payroll and related expenses applicable to the growth of
the ATLANTIC REIT manager ($2.4 million), as well as additional personnel and
related costs applicable to information systems, human resources and other
administrative support functions.
 
PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES
The provision for income taxes in 1996 was primarily attributable to deferred
income taxes on the equity in earnings of SC-USREALTY. In 1995, Security
Capital had net deferred tax assets (primarily net operating losses) that were
completely offset by a valuation allowance. Accordingly, no provision for
income taxes was recorded in 1995. See Note 8 to the Company's consolidated
financial statements included herein.

MINORITY INTERESTS
Minority interests increased from $4.8 million in 1995 to $13.4 million in 1996
due to increased earnings at ATLANTIC, coupled with an increase in minority
interests in ATLANTIC in conjunction with its initial public offering in
October 1996.
 
PREFERRED STOCK DIVIDENDS
On April 1, 1996, Security Capital issued 139,000 shares of Series A Preferred
Stock to a single investor. The Series A Preferred Stock carries a 7.5%
preferential cash dividend rate, payable when and if authorized by the Board
quarterly in arrears. Security Capital paid $7.8 million in dividends on the
Series A Preferred Stock in 1996. See "Description of Capital Stock--Preferred
Stock."
 
1995 COMPARED TO 1994
 
CAPITAL DIVISION INVESTMENTS
 
Dividends Received
Security Capital's dividends received increased $41.4 million, or 86%, from
$48.2 million in 1994 to $89.6 million in 1995.
 
Equity in earnings of less than 50% owned investees
Security Capital consolidated SCI's operations in 1994 and reported earnings of
SCI based on the equity method in 1995. For purposes of comparison between the
years, SCI results of operations for 1994 are discussed below as if the equity
method was in effect for 1994. Security Capital's share of SCI's earnings
increased 65%, from $12.7 million in 1994 to $21.0 million in 1995. This
increase was primarily attributable to an increase in the amount of
distribution space owned and leased by SCI (58.5 million square feet at
December 31, 1995 compared to 39.1 million square feet at December 31, 1994),
improvements in SCI's occupancy level (93.5% as of December 31, 1995 compared
to 92.4% as of December 31, 1994) and increased rental rates on renewal leases
for previously occupied space. At December 31, 1995 and 1994, Security
Capital's ownership interest in the outstanding common shares of SCI was 48%
and 51%, respectively.
 
Security Capital reported earnings of PTR based on the equity method in both
1995 and 1994. However, PTR's 1995 earnings include the earnings of PACIFIC
which was merged into PTR in March 1995. For purposes of comparison between the
years, PTR's results of operations for 1994 are discussed below as if the PTR
Merger had occurred at the beginning of 1994. Security Capital's share of PTR's
earnings increased 69%, from $14.6 million in 1994 ($8.8 million from PTR and
$5.8 million from PACIFIC) to $24.6 million in 1995. This increase was
primarily attributable to a substantial increase in 1995 in the number of
multifamily properties owned by PTR (38,737 operating units at December 31,
1995 compared to 30,182 operating units at December 31, 1994) and Security
Capital's increased ownership interest in PTR. At December 31, 1995 and 1994,
Security Capital's ownership interest in the outstanding common shares of PTR
was 38% and 32%, respectively.
 
Rental Operations--from greater than 50% owned consolidated investees
 
Rental Revenues and Expenses
During 1995 and 1994, all rental revenues and expenses of the Company pertained
solely to ATLANTIC's operations. Rental revenues increased $48.5 million, or
88%, to $103.6 million in 1995 from $55.1 million in 1994. Rental expenses, as
a result of the 1995 Merger, include the expenses of the ATLANTIC property
manager commencing January 1, 1995. Rental expenses increased $17.4 million, or
75%, to $40.5 million in 1995 (excluding REIT and property management fees)
from $23.1 million in 1994. The increase in rental revenues and expenses was
primarily attributable to the increase in the number of multifamily
communities. At December 31, 1995, ATLANTIC had 15,823 operating multifamily
units as compared to 11,990 operating multifamily units at December 31, 1994.
In 1994, ATLANTIC acquired 11,307 units and the majority of its properties were
not owned for the full year. At December 31, 1994, 94.7% of ATLANTIC's units
were classified as "pre-stabilized" as compared to 25.7% at December 31, 1995.
The term "pre-stabilized" means that renovation, repositioning, new management
and new marketing programs (or development and marketing in the case of newly
developed communities) have not been completed and in effect for a sufficient
period of time (but in no event longer than 12 months, except in cases of major
rehabilitation) to achieve 93% occupancy at market rents.

SERVICES DIVISION
 
Revenues
Services Division revenues were $49.4 million in 1995. As mentioned previously,
the Services Division companies were acquired by Security Capital on January 1,
1995 as a result of the 1995 Merger.
 
Expenses
During 1995, Security Capital incurred Services Division expenses (primarily
payroll, occupancy and related expenses) of $56.3 million as a result of the
acquisition of the Services Division companies in the 1995 Merger.
 
DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION
Total depreciation and amortization for Security Capital was $18.1 million for
1995, which represented an increase of $9.3 million from depreciation and
amortization of $8.8 million for 1994. Depreciation and amortization from
rental operations (ATLANTIC) was $15.9 million and $8.8 million in 1995 and
1994, respectively. The $7.1 million increase in depreciation and amortization
from rental operations, which represented an increase of 81% over 1994, was due
to increases in ATLANTIC's portfolio of operating properties and the reflection
of a full year of depreciation in 1995 for properties acquired during 1994. The
remaining increase of $2.2 million in 1995 was attributable to the Services
Division and the administrative support functions and was attributable to
depreciation on furniture, fixtures and equipment (primarily computer and
communications equipment) which was not owned by Security Capital in 1994.
 
INTEREST EXPENSE
Security Capital's interest expense for 1995 and 1994 consisted of interest on
the 2014 Convertible Debentures, interest on revolving lines of credit which
are obligations of Security Capital and ATLANTIC and interest on mortgage notes
payable which are obligations of ATLANTIC. Interest expense for 1995 and 1994
can be summarized as follows:

</TABLE>
 
Interest on 2014 Convertible Debentures increased $49.1 million in 1995 from
$29.6 million in 1994. The increase was primarily due to the issuance of $461
million of 2014 Convertible Debentures in 1994, and the issuance of an
additional $185 million of 2014 Convertible Debentures in 1995.
 
ATLANTIC's mortgage interest expense increased $4.3 million in 1995 as compared
to 1994, due to an increase in average mortgage debt outstanding.
 
ATLANTIC's line of credit interest expense increased $10.3 million in 1995 over
1994. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase in the average
outstanding balance on its line of credit ($178.3 million in 1995 as compared
to $65.6 million in 1994) and a higher weighted-average interest rate (7.92% in
1995 as compared to 7.34% in 1994). A portion of the increase was also
attributable to amortization of loan-related costs.
 
The overall increase in interest expense was offset by an increase in
capitalized interest of $3.6 million in 1995 over 1994. The increase in
capitalized interest was the result of ATLANTIC's increased development
activity.
 
GENERAL, ADMINISTRATIVE AND OTHER
General, administrative and other expenses increased to $20.2 million in 1995
from $6.2 million in 1994 primarily as a result of the acquisition of the
Services Division in the 1995 Merger. Such expenses in 1995 relate primarily to
payroll, occupancy and related expenses applicable to (a) the ATLANTIC REIT
manager as well as (b) corporate administration, information systems, human
resources, legal and accounting departments. General, administrative and other
expenses in 1994 consisted primarily of a REIT management fee paid by Security
Capital amounting to $5.3 million, which was eliminated in 1995 as a result of
the acquisition of the Services Division companies.
 
                                       67
<PAGE>
 
PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES
Security Capital elected to be taxed as a REIT in 1994 and, therefore, incurred
no federal or state tax at the corporate level in 1994. In 1995, Security
Capital elected to be taxed as a C corporation. Security Capital sustained a
loss for tax purposes in 1995 and its deferred tax assets (primarily net
operating losses) were completely offset by a valuation allowance.
 
COSTS INCURRED IN ACQUIRING SERVICES DIVISION FROM RELATED PARTY
The Services Division companies do not qualify as "businesses" for purposes of
applying APB Opinion No. 16, "Business Combinations". Accordingly, the excess
of the aggregate value of the securities issued ($233,708,000) over the fair
value of the net tangible assets acquired ($75,264,000) has been recorded as
"Costs incurred in acquiring Services Division from related party"
($158,444,000) in Security Capital's 1995 Consolidated Statement of Operations.
 
MINORITY INTERESTS
Minority interests decreased $10.4 million, from $15.2 million in 1994 to $4.8
million in 1995, primarily as a result of the deconsolidation of SCI and
PACIFIC.
 
SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1997 COMPARED TO SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1996.
 
CAPITAL DIVISION INVESTMENTS
 
Dividends Received
 
Security Capital's dividends received increased $6.6 million, or 12%, from
$53.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 1996 to $60.1 million for the
six months ended June 30, 1997. The increase results primarily from (a) the
purchase of additional shares in SCI and ATLANTIC, (b) a dividend from SC-ERF
of approximately $2.5 million during the six months ended June 30, 1997 and (c)
an increase in per share dividend rates.
 
Equity in Earnings of Less Than 50% Owned Investees
 
Security Capital's equity in SCI's earnings increased 55% from $11.4 million to
$17.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 1996 and 1997, respectively.
This increase was primarily attributable to an increase in the amount of
distribution space owned and leased by SCI (85.3 million square feet at June
30, 1997 compared to 70.1 million square feet at June 30, 1996) and increased
rental rates on renewal leases for previously occupied space. At June 30, 1997
and 1996, Security Capital's ownership interest in the outstanding common
shares of beneficial interest of SCI was approximately 44% and 48%,
respectively.
 
Security Capital's equity in PTR's earnings increased 60% from $15.8 million
for the first six months of 1996 to $25.3 million for the first six months of
1997. This increase is primarily attributable to an increase ($29.1 million) in
gains on sales of properties offset by a slight net decrease in the number of
multifamily properties owned by PTR (40,786 units at June 30, 1997 compared to
40,981 units at June 30, 1996). At June 30, 1997 and 1996, Security Capital's
ownership interest in the outstanding common shares of beneficial interest of
PTR was approximately 35% and 38%, respectively.
 
Security Capital's share of SC-USREALTY's earnings increased substantially from
$12.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 1996 to $35.1 million for the
six months ended June 30, 1997. SC-USREALTY effectively commenced its
investment activities in October 1995, and at June 30, 1996, SC-USREALTY had
investments at cost of approximately $519 million with a fair market value of
approximately $550 million. At June 30, 1997, SC-USREALTY had investments at
cost of $1.82 billion with a fair market value of $2.15 billion. Unrealized
appreciation on SC-USREALTY's investments increased by $66.2 million and $30.9
million for the six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively. In
addition, SC-USREALTY recorded net investment income of $40.0 million and $1.8
million for the six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively. At June
30, 1997 and 1996, Security Capital's ownership interest in the outstanding
common stock of SC-USREALTY was approximately 32% and 39%, respectively.
 
Security Capital's initial investment (approximately $9.9 million) in SC-ERF
occurred in late December 1996. During the six months ended June 30, 1997,
Security Capital invested an additional $90.1 million in SC-ERF. At June 30,
1997, SC-ERF had investments at cost and fair market value of approximately
$103.6 million and $107.1
 
                                       68
<PAGE>
 
million, respectively. Security Capital owned 98.7% and 100% of the outstanding
shares of SC-ERF at June 30, 1997 and December 31, 1996, respectively.
 
RENTAL OPERATIONS--FROM GREATER THAN 50% OWNED CONSOLIDATED INVESTEES
 
Rental Revenues
 
Rental revenues increased $41.6 million, or 65%, from $63.7 million for the six
months ended June 30, 1996 to $105.3 million for the same period in 1997. This
increase was attributable to an increase in the number of multifamily units
owned and operated by ATLANTIC (19,265 operating units at June 30, 1997
compared to 17,109 operating units at June 30, 1996), coupled with stable
occupancies (approximately 95%) for both periods and increased rental rates.
This resulted in a $17.1 million increase in rental revenues between the six-
month periods. Also accounting for part of the increase in rental revenues is
the consolidation of Homestead after the spin-out transactions completed on
October 17, 1996 by Security Capital, ATLANTIC and PTR of their extended-stay
lodging assets. Homestead generated $24.5 million in revenues for the six month
period ended June 30, 1997.
 
Other Income, Net
 
The $5.1 million increase in Other Income primarily results from (a) the
inclusion of SC-ERF's net investment income (approximately $2.5 million) and
increase in unrealized appreciation on investments (approximately $3.5 million)
for the six months ended June 30, 1997 offset by (b) a $0.9 million decrease in
fees applicable to consulting services performed by the Capital Management
Group.
 
Rental Expenses
 
Rental expenses increased by $16.1 million, or 64%, to $41.4 million for the
six months ended June 30, 1997 from $25.3 million for the same period in 1996.
The increase is attributable to the increase in the number of ATLANTIC's
operating multifamily communities and the consolidation of Homestead as
discussed above under "Rental Revenues". ATLANTIC's rental expenses, which
include the expenses of the ATLANTIC property manager, increased $5.7 million
(excluding REIT and property management fees) in the first six months of 1997
compared to the corresponding period of 1996. Homestead's rental expenses were
$10.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 1997.
 
SERVICES DIVISION
 
Revenues
 
Services Division revenues increased by 45% from $33.7 million for the six
months ended June 30, 1996 to $49.0 million for the same period in 1997. The
increase of $15.3 million in Services Division revenues in 1997 as compared to
1996 was primarily attributable to growth in operations at SC-USREALTY and SCI.
In particular, advisory revenues earned from SC-USREALTY increased $8.8 million
and financial services revenues earned from SCI increased $6.3 million.
Additionally, fees earned by Security Capital Markets Group and Capital
Management Group increased by $2.3 million and $0.2 million, respectively,
during the six months ended June 30, 1997 compared to the same period in 1996,
offset by a $2.3 million decrease in fees earned by the PTR REIT and property
management companies as a result of the spin-out of Homestead assets by PTR in
October, 1996.
 
Expenses
 
Services Division expenses increased by $9.7 million, or 30%, for the six
months ended June 30, 1997, to $42.5 million from $32.8 million for the same
period in 1996. This increase resulted from the expansion of the Services
Division, including the hiring of additional professionals primarily for the
REIT and property management companies and the Capital Management Group.
 
DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION
 
Total depreciation and amortization for Security Capital was $18.7 million and
$11.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively. Of
those amounts, $16.2 million and $9.6 million represented depreciation and
amortization from rental operations for those same periods in 1997 and 1996,
respectively. Depreciation for ATLANTIC increased $3.0 million to $12.6 million
for the first half of 1997 from $9.6 million for
 
                                       69
<PAGE>
 
the first half of 1996, an increase of 31%, due to the increase in the number
of operating multifamily communities between those periods. Depreciation for
Homestead was $3.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 1997. The
remaining depreciation and amortization of $2.5 million and $1.5 million in
1997 and 1996, respectively, is attributable to the Services Division and the
administrative support functions, representing an increase of $1.0 million over
such depreciation and amortization for the first half of 1996. The increase of
$1.0 million between 1997 and 1996 is primarily a result of depreciation and
amortization on additional computer hardware and software and office leasehold
improvements.
 
INTEREST EXPENSE
 
Interest expense on the Convertible Debentures increased $9.6 million or 21% to
$54.6 million for the first half of 1997 compared to $45.0 million for the same
period in 1996. The increase is primarily attributable to receipt of the
subscriptions of the 2016 Convertible Debentures from a private placement
offering completed in March, 1996, which totaled $323 million.
 
Interest expense on other obligations increased by $0.8 million from the first
half of 1996 to the same period in 1997, largely due to ATLANTIC's increased
weighted average mortgage debt outstanding during the first six months of 1997.
 
GENERAL, ADMINISTRATIVE AND OTHER
 
General, administrative and other expenses increased by $21.2 million, or 147%,
for the six months ended June 30, 1997, to $35.6 million from $14.4 million for
the same period in 1996. This increase resulted primarily from (a) additional
personnel and related costs and professional fees applicable to researching new
business opportunities, enhancing information systems designed for global
operations, and to a lesser extent, additional personnel for human resources
and other administrative support functions ($7.9 million), (b) a noncash, non-
recurring charge to earnings of $6.6 million in the second quarter of 1997
associated with an exchange of Security Capital shares for shares of a
corporate entity owned by Security Capital's Chairman, whose sole assets were
warrants and options to purchase Security Capital shares. This charge
represents the value applicable to the holder's ability to defer exercising the
warrants and options until 2002 in accordance with their terms (see "Certain
Relationships and Transactions"), (c) consolidation of Homestead's accounts in
1997 ($6.3 million), and (d) an increase in ATLANTIC's administrative expenses
($0.4 million).
 
PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES
 
The provision for income taxes increased by $13.4 million for the six months
ended June 30, 1997 as compared to the same period in 1996 primarily
attributable to deferred income taxes on the equity in earnings of Security
Capital's unconsolidated investees.
 
Prior to the second quarter of 1996, Security Capital did not record a
provision for income taxes as it had deferred tax assets that were completely
offset by a valuation allowance. Beginning in the second quarter of 1996, a
deferred tax liability was recorded primarily because of Security Capital's
equity in the earnings of SC-USREALTY. The effective rate for the three- and
six-month periods ended June 30, 1997 is also affected by the $6.6 million
nondeductible charge to earnings as described above under General
Administrative and Other expenses.
 
MINORITY INTERESTS
 
Minority interests increased from $5.3 million for the six months ended June
30, 1996 to $11.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 1997 primarily due
to increased earnings of ATLANTIC and Homestead, coupled with an increase in
minority ownership interests in ATLANTIC in conjunction with its public
offerings in October 1996 and May 1997 and the spin-out of Homestead which also
occurred in October 1996.
 
PREFERRED SHARE DIVIDENDS
 
On April 1, 1996, Security Capital issued 139,000 Series A Preferred Shares to
a single investor. The Series A Preferred Shares carry a 7.5% preferential cash
dividend rate, payable when and if authorized by the Board of Directors
quarterly in arrears. Security Capital paid $5.2 million and $2.6 million in
dividends on the Series A Preferred Shares for the six months ended June 30,
1997 and 1996, respectively.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
 
OVERVIEW
 
Security Capital's investment activities consist primarily of the investment in
the common shares of its Capital Division investees and capital expenditures
relating to expansion of its Services Division business. The investment
activities of Security Capital's operating companies consist primarily of the
acquisition and development of real estate. In addition, SC-ERF invests in the
securities of publicly traded real estate companies. Security Capital has
historically financed its investment activities primarily through the sale of
stock and debentures in private placements and borrowings under its line of
credit.
 
Based on Security Capital's current level of operations and anticipated growth
as a result of pending new business initiatives, Security Capital expects that
cash flows from operations (including dividends and fees received from its
operating companies), proceeds from the Offering and funds currently available
under its $400 million revolving line of credit will be sufficient to enable
Security Capital to satisfy its anticipated cash requirements for operating and
investing activities for existing businesses for the next twelve months.
Security Capital intends to finance its long-term business activities
(including investments in new business initiatives) through the proceeds from
the Offering, borrowings under an expanded line of credit and the exercise of
the Warrants. In addition, Security Capital anticipates that its operating
companies will separately finance their activities through cash flow from
operations, sales of equity and debt securities and the incurrence of mortgage
debt or line of credit borrowings.
 
Security Capital has issued Warrants to purchase 8,928,572 Class B Shares to
the shareholders of SCI, PTR and ATLANTIC pursuant to the Mergers. These
Warrants have an exercise price equal to the initial public offering price of
the Class B Shares in the Offering, and have a term of one year.
 
Security Capital's consolidated investees have undertaken the following recent
financing activities:
 
  .  In May 1997, ATLANTIC completed an $87 million (gross proceeds) equity
     offering to finance development and acquisition plans for 1997. In
     addition, in August 1997, ATLANTIC completed a $50 million preferred
     stock offering and a $150 million unsecured senior debt securities
     offering to the public. Proceeds from these securities offerings and
     borrowings under its $350 million line of credit are expected to provide
     the capital for ATLANTIC's financing needs.
 
  .  Homestead plans a development program for its extended-stay lodging
     properties which will be financed primarily through its funding
     commitment agreements with PTR and ATLANTIC, which agreements will
     provide up to $199 million and $111 million, respectively, in financing,
     as well as through outstanding warrants to purchase approximately $44
     million (approximately $15.5 million owned by Security Capital) of
     Homestead common stock outstanding as of June 30, 1997 (if such warrants
     are exercised). In May 1997, Homestead obtained a $50 million revolving
     line of credit and is considering securities offerings to provide
     additional sources of capital to meet its financing needs.
 
1996 INVESTING AND FINANCING ACTIVITIES
Security Capital recorded investments of approximately $832.3 million in 1996,
consisting primarily of (i) $267 million invested by ATLANTIC for the
development and acquisition of multifamily communities, (ii) $65 million

October 17, 1996 to December 31, 1996, (iii) $95 million invested by Security
Capital for common shares of SCI and ATLANTIC and (iv) $392.9 million invested
by Security Capital for common shares of SC-USREALTY.

primarily of (i) net proceeds from sales of common and preferred stock of
$438.3 million and $139.0 million, respectively, (ii) $221.6 million in net
proceeds from the issuance of Convertible Debentures, (iii) a $45.9 million
increase in outstanding mortgage loans for ATLANTIC and Homestead, (iv) net
repayments on lines of credit of $10.0 million and (v) other financing
transactions resulting in an aggregate use of cash of $27.1 million.
 
Also in 1996, ATLANTIC increased its line of credit to $350 million, and
Security Capital increased its line of credit to $300 million.

                     RELATIONSHIPS WITH OPERATING COMPANIES
 
In addition to the transactions with affiliates described elsewhere in this
Prospectus, Security Capital has entered into the following agreements with its
affiliated real estate operating companies:
 
ATLANTIC
 
ATLANTIC REIT Management Agreement
Prior to the Mergers, ATLANTIC's REIT manager, Security Capital (Atlantic)
Incorporated (the "ATLANTIC REIT Manager"), was owned by Security Capital. The
ATLANTIC REIT Manager's sole business and principal occupation since its
formation in October 1993 was advising ATLANTIC. The services provided or
coordinated by the ATLANTIC REIT Manager included strategic and day-to-day
management, research, investment analysis, acquisition and due diligence,
multifamily property development, asset management, capital markets, asset
disposition, legal and accounting services. All such services were included in
the fee paid to the ATLANTIC REIT Manager by ATLANTIC (the "ATLANTIC REIT
Management fee"), including capital markets and development services, which
most REITs capitalize (or, in the case of capital markets, deduct from
proceeds). The ATLANTIC REIT Management fee was paid monthly and was $6.2
million for the six months ended June 30, 1997, and $10.4 million, $6.9 million
and $3.7 million for the years ended December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994,
respectively. This agreement was terminated on September 9, 1997 and all the
employees of the ATLANTIC REIT Manager became employees of ATLANTIC.
 
ATLANTIC Property Management
Commencing May 12, 1994, SCG Realty Services (Atlantic) Incorporated (the
"ATLANTIC Property Manager"), an affiliate of the ATLANTIC REIT Manager and a
subsidiary of Security Capital, began providing property management services
for certain of ATLANTIC's properties. At July 31, 1997, the ATLANTIC Property
Manager managed approximately 92.6% of ATLANTIC's multifamily units. The
agreement was to terminate September 30, 1997, subject to earlier termination
by ATLANTIC on 30 days' notice, was renewable annually upon approval of
ATLANTIC's independent directors and contemplated a fee to the ATLANTIC
Property Manager of 3.5% of property revenues for properties located in Atlanta
and Washington, D.C. markets and 3.75% of property revenues for all other
properties, paid monthly, which was $2.7 million for the six months ended June
30, 1997, and $4.2 million, $3.5 million and $1.5 million for the years ended
December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994, respectively. Any management contracts
executed with the ATLANTIC Property Manager were expected to be at market
rates. This agreement was terminated on September 9, 1997 and all employees of
the ATLANTIC Property Manager became employees of ATLANTIC.
 
ATLANTIC Investor Agreement
On September 9, 1997, ATLANTIC and Security Capital amended and restated their
investor agreement (as so amended and restated, the "ATLANTIC Amended Investor
Agreement"), which provides that, without first having consulted with the
nominees of Security Capital designated in writing, ATLANTIC may not seek Board
of Directors approval of (i) ATLANTIC's annual budget; (ii) the incurrence of
expenses in any year exceeding (a) any line item in the annual budget by the
greater of $500,000 or 20% and (b) the total expenses set forth in the annual
budget by 15%; (iii) the purchase or sale of any assets in any single
transaction or series of related transactions in the ordinary course of
ATLANTIC's business where the aggregate purchase price to be paid or received
by ATLANTIC would exceed $25 million; and (iv) the entering into of any new
contract with a service provider (a) for investment management, property
management or leasing services or (b) that reasonably contemplates annual
contract payments by ATLANTIC in excess of $1 million. ATLANTIC is under no
obligation to accept or comply with any advice offered by Security Capital with
respect to the foregoing matters.
 
Additionally, so long as Security Capital beneficially owns at least 25% of the
common shares of ATLANTIC, Security Capital has the right to approve the
following matters proposed by ATLANTIC: (i) the issuance or sale of any common
shares, (including the grant of any rights, options or warrants to subscribe
for or purchase common shares or any security convertible into or exchangeable
for common shares or the issuance or sale of any security convertible into or
exchangeable for common shares) at a price per share less than the fair market
value of a common share on the date of such issuance or sale; (ii) the issuance
and sale of any disqualified shares (as defined) if, as a result thereof,
ATLANTIC's Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio (as defined) would be less than 1.4 to
1.0; (iii) the adoption of any employee benefit plan pursuant to which shares
of ATLANTIC or any securities convertible into shares of ATLANTIC may be issued
and any action with respect to the compensation of the senior officers of
ATLANTIC (including the granting or award of any bonuses or share-based
incentive awards); and (iv) the
 
                                       75
<PAGE>
 
incurrence of any additional indebtedness (including guarantees and including
renegotiations and restructurings of existing indebtedness) if, as a result
thereof, ATLANTIC's Interest Expense Coverage Ratio (as defined) would be less
than 2.0 to 1.0. The restriction referred to in clause (i) above does not apply
to (A) the sale or grant of any options to purchase shares of ATLANTIC pursuant
to the provisions of any benefit plan approved by the shareholders of ATLANTIC,
(B) the issuance or sale of shares upon the exercise of any rights, options or
warrants granted, or upon the conversion or exchange of any convertible or
exchangeable security issued or sold, prior to September 9, 1997 or in
accordance with the provisions of the ATLANTIC Amended Investor Agreement, (C)
the issuance and sale of any shares of ATLANTIC pursuant to any dividend
reinvestment and share purchase plan approved by the ATLANTIC Board of
Directors or (D) the issuance, grant of distribution of rights, options or
warrants to all holders of common shares entitling them to subscribe for or
purchase shares of ATLANTIC or securities convertible into or exercisable for
shares.
 
The ATLANTIC Amended Investor Agreement also provides that, so long as Security
Capital owns at least 10% of the outstanding common shares, ATLANTIC may not
increase the number of persons serving on the ATLANTIC Board of Directors to
more than seven. Security Capital also is entitled to designate one or more
persons as directors of ATLANTIC, as follows: (i) so long as Security Capital
owns at least 10% but less than 25% of the outstanding common shares, it is
entitled to nominate one person; and (ii) so long as Security Capital owns at
least 25% of the outstanding common shares, it is entitled to nominate that
number of persons as shall bear approximately the same ratio to the total
number of members of the ATLANTIC Board of Directors as the number of common
shares beneficially owned by Security Capital bears to the total number of
outstanding common shares, provided, that Security Capital shall be entitled to
designate no more than three persons so long as the ATLANTIC Board of Directors
consists of no more than seven members.
 
As part of the ATLANTIC Amended Investor Agreement, Security Capital may make
employment opportunities with Security Capital or its affiliates available to
the officers and employees of ATLANTIC. Prior to commencing discussions with a
senior officer of ATLANTIC about any such opportunity, Security Capital must
give the ATLANTIC Board of Directors 14 days' prior written notice.
 
In addition, the ATLANTIC Amended Investor Agreement provides Security Capital
with registration rights pursuant to which, in certain specified circumstances,
Security Capital may request at any time, registration of all of Security
Capital's common shares pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended (the "Securities Act"). Security Capital may request one such
registration for every $100 million (based on market value) of common shares of
ATLANTIC it owns.
 
Administrative Services Agreement
On September 9, 1997, ATLANTIC and Security Capital entered into an
administrative services agreement, pursuant to which Security Capital will
provide ATLANTIC with certain administrative and other services with respect to
certain aspects of ATLANTIC's business, as selected from time to time by
ATLANTIC at its option. These services are expected to include, but are not
limited to, payroll and tax administration services, cash management and
accounts payable services, data processing and other computer services, human
resources, research, investor relations, insurance administration and legal
administration. The fees payable to Security Capital will be equal to Security
Capital's cost of providing such services plus 20%, subject to a maximum amount
of approximately $5.2 million during the initial term of the agreement, of
which approximately $1.5 million will apply to the period between September 9,
1997 and December 31, 1997 and the remainder will apply to 1998. Cost savings
under this agreement will accrue to ATLANTIC. The agreement will be for an
initial term expiring on December 31, 1998 and will be automatically renewed
for consecutive one-year terms, subject to approval by a majority of the
independent members of the ATLANTIC Board of Directors.
 
License Agreement
On September 9, 1997, ATLANTIC and Security Capital entered into a license
agreement pursuant to which Security Capital granted ATLANTIC a non-exclusive
license to use Security Capital's registered logo and the non-exclusive right
to use the name "Security Capital." The term of the license is for a period of
15 years, subject to ATLANTIC's right to extend the license for up to two
additional five-year periods.
 
Protection of Business Agreement
On September 9, 1997, ATLANTIC and Security Capital entered into a protection
of business agreement (the "ATLANTIC Protection of Business Agreement"), which
prohibits Security Capital and its affiliates from
 
                                       76
<PAGE>
 
providing, anywhere within the United States, directly or indirectly,
substantially the same services as those currently provided by the ATLANTIC
REIT Manager and the ATLANTIC Property Manager to any entity that owns or
operates multifamily properties. The ATLANTIC Protection of Business Agreement
does not prohibit Security Capital or its affiliates from owning the securities
of any class of ATLANTIC or PTR. The ATLANTIC Protection of Business Agreement
terminates in the event of an acquisition, directly or indirectly, (other than
by purchase from Security Capital or any of its affiliates), by any person (or
group of persons acting in concert), other than Security Capital or any of its
affiliates, of the greater of (i) 25% or more of the outstanding shares of
voting securities of ATLANTIC and (ii) the percentage of outstanding voting
securities of ATLANTIC owned directly or indirectly by Security Capital and its
affiliates, in either case without the prior written consent of the ATLANTIC
Board of Directors. Subject to earlier termination pursuant to the preceding
sentence, the ATLANTIC Protection of Business Agreement will terminate on

ATLANTIC Development Agreements
ATLANTIC is a party to several development agreements with unaffiliated third-
party developer/managers which provide that ATLANTIC will make certain earnout
payments to the developer/managers either in the form of cash, shares of
ATLANTIC's common stock or shares of Security Capital's common stock, as
determined in the sole discretion of the developer/managers. The amount of such
payments shall be determined on a per site basis and shall be a percentage of
the amount by which annualized net operating income exceeds the total actual
project costs. ATLANTIC paid $800,000 in February 1997 on one community and
$4.0 million in August 1997 with respect to four communities to one such
developer/manager. The earnout for the two remaining communities cannot exceed
$2.2 million of which none was earned at August 31, 1997.
 
HOMESTEAD
 
Homestead Transaction
In January 1996, Security Capital began considering ways for ATLANTIC, PTR and
Security Capital to maximize shareholder value with respect to their Homestead
Village(R) properties and operations. In May 1996, ATLANTIC, PTR, Security
Capital and Homestead entered into a merger agreement, pursuant to which each
of ATLANTIC, PTR and Security Capital agreed to contribute, through a series of
merger transactions, all of their respective assets relating to Homestead
Village(R) properties to Homestead, and ATLANTIC and PTR agreed to enter into
certain funding commitment agreements. ATLANTIC's and PTR's respective
shareholders approved the Homestead transaction on September 13, 1996 and
September 12, 1996, respectively, and the closing of the Homestead transaction
occurred on October 17, 1996, which resulted in (i) ATLANTIC (a) owning
4,201,220 shares of Homestead common stock, (b) owning 2,818,517 warrants each
to purchase one share of Homestead common stock at $10 per share, (c) agreeing
to provide up to $111.1 million of mortgage financing to Homestead in exchange
for up to approximately $98 million in convertible mortgage notes and (d)
providing a cash payment of $16.6 million to Homestead on the closing date;
(ii) PTR (a) owning 9,485,727 shares of Homestead common stock, (b) owning
6,363,789 warrants each to purchase one share of Homestead common stock at $10
per share and (c) agreeing to provide up to $198.8 million of mortgage
financing to Homestead in exchange for up to approximately $221 million in
convertible mortgage notes and (iii) Security Capital (a) owning 4,062,788
shares of Homestead common stock and (b) owning 817,694 warrants each to
purchase one share of Homestead common stock at $10 per share. ATLANTIC and PTR
both distributed the Homestead common stock and warrants which each received to
their respective shareholders pro rata in the Homestead transaction on November
12, 1996 to shareholders of record on October 29, 1996. Each holder of record
of a share of ATLANTIC's common stock received 0.110875 shares of Homestead
common stock and warrants to purchase 0.074384 shares of Homestead common stock
and each holder of record of a share of PTR's common shares received 0.125694
shares of Homestead common stock and warrants to purchase 0.084326 shares of
Homestead common stock. As a result of the Homestead transaction, including the
distributions by each of ATLANTIC and PTR, Security Capital owned 9,894,401
shares of Homestead common stock and warrants to purchase 4,730,022 shares of
Homestead common stock. As of August 31, 1997, Security Capital had purchased
in the open market warrants to purchase 2,865,106 shares of Homestead common
stock and has exercised warrants to purchase 7,363,302 shares of Homestead
common stock, and as a result, as of August 31, 1997 owned 17,257,703
(including 1,162,902 shares held in escrow) shares of Homestead common stock
and warrants to purchase 231,826 shares of Homestead common stock.
 
Protection of Business Agreement
ATLANTIC, PTR and Security Capital entered into a protection of business
agreement with Homestead, dated as of October 17, 1996 (the "Homestead
Protection of Business Agreement"), which prohibits ATLANTIC, PTR and
 
                                       77
<PAGE>
 
Security Capital, and their respective affiliates, from engaging, directly or
indirectly, in the extended-stay lodging business except through Homestead and
its subsidiaries. The agreement also prohibits Homestead from, directly or
indirectly, engaging in the ownership, operation, development, management or
leasing of multifamily communities. The agreement does not prohibit ATLANTIC,
PTR or Security Capital from: (i) owning securities of Homestead; (ii) owning
up to 5% of the outstanding securities of another person engaged in owning,
operating, developing, managing or leasing extended-stay lodging properties, so
long as it does not actively participate in the business of such person; (iii)
owning the outstanding securities of another person, a majority-owned
subsidiary, division, group, franchise or segment of which is engaged in
owning, operating, developing, managing or leasing extended-stay lodging
properties, so long as not more than 5% of such person's consolidated revenues
are derived from such properties; and (iv) owning securities of another person
primarily engaged in a business other than owning, operating, developing,
managing or leasing extended-stay lodging properties, including a person
primarily engaged in business as an owner, operator or developer of hotel
properties, whether or not such person owns, operates, develops, manages or
leases extended-stay lodging properties. The agreement does not prohibit
Homestead from: (i) owning securities of ATLANTIC, PTR or Security Capital;
(ii) owning up to 5% of the outstanding securities of another person engaged in
owning, operating, developing, managing or leasing multifamily communities; and
(iii) owning the outstanding securities of another person, a majority-owned
subsidiary, division, group, franchise or segment of which is engaged in
owning, operating, developing, managing or leasing multifamily communities, so
long as not more than 5% of such person's consolidated revenues are derived
from such properties. The agreement will terminate in the event of an
acquisition, directly or indirectly (other than by purchase from ATLANTIC, PTR
or Security Capital or any of their respective affiliates), by any person (or
group of associated persons acting in concert), other than ATLANTIC, PTR or
Security Capital or their respective affiliates, of 25% or more of the
outstanding voting stock of Homestead, without the prior written consent of
Homestead's Board of Directors. Subject to earlier termination pursuant to the
preceding sentence, the Homestead Protection of Business Agreement will
terminate on October 17, 2006.
 
Homestead Investor Agreement
Homestead and Security Capital have entered into an investor agreement (the
"Homestead Investor Agreement"), dated as of October 17, 1996, which requires
Security Capital, upon notice from Homestead, to exercise all of the warrants
to purchase shares of Homestead common stock (at an exercise price of $10 per
share) owned by Security Capital. Homestead may call for the exercise of such
warrants by Security Capital upon 10 days' prior written notice. The Homestead
Investor Agreement, among other things, provides that, without having first
consulted with the nominee of Security Capital designated in writing, Homestead
may not seek Homestead Board of Directors' approval of (i) Homestead's annual
budget, (ii) the incurrence of expenses in any year exceeding (A) any line item
in the annual budget by 20% and (B) the total expenses set forth in the annual
budget by 5%, (iii) acquisitions or dispositions in a single transaction or
group of related transactions where the aggregate purchase price paid or
received exceeds $5 million, (iv) new contracts with a service provider (A) for
investment management, property management or leasing services or (B) that
reasonably contemplates annual contract payments by Homestead in excess of
$200,000, (v) the declaration or payment of any dividend or other distribution,
(vi) the approval of stock option plans, (vii) the offer or sale of any shares
of stock of Homestead or any securities convertible into shares of stock of
Homestead (other than the sale or grant of any stock or grants of options or
exercise of options granted under any benefit option plan approved by
stockholders) and (viii) the incurrence, restructuring, renegotiation or
repayment of indebtedness for borrowed money in which the aggregate amount
involved exceeds $5 million. The Homestead Investor Agreement also provides
that, so long as Security Capital owns at least 10% of the outstanding shares
of Homestead's common stock, Homestead may not increase the number of persons
serving on the Homestead Board of Directors to more than seven. Security
Capital also will be entitled to designate one or more persons as directors of
Homestead, as follows: (i) so long as Security Capital owns at least 10% but
less than 30% of the outstanding shares of Homestead's common stock, it is
entitled to nominate one person and (ii) so long as Security Capital owns at
least 30% of the outstanding shares of Homestead's common stock, it is entitled
to nominate that number of persons as shall bear approximately the same ratio
to the total number of members of the Homestead Board of Directors as the
number of shares of Homestead common stock beneficially owned by Security
Capital bears to the total number of outstanding shares of Homestead common
stock, provided that Security Capital shall be entitled to designate no more
than two persons so long as the Homestead Board of Directors consists of no
more than seven members. Any person who is employed by Security Capital or who
is an employee, a 25% shareholder or a director of any corporation of which
Security Capital is a 25% shareholder (except for Homestead) shall be deemed to
be a designee of Security Capital.
 
                                       78

In addition, the Homestead Investor Agreement provides Security Capital with
registration rights pursuant to which, in certain specified circumstances,
Security Capital may request, at any time after October 22, 1997, and on not
more than three occasions, registration pursuant to Rule 415 under the
Securities Act of all of the shares of Homestead's common stock owned by
Security Capital.
 
Homestead Escrow Agreement
Pursuant to an escrow agreement dated October 17, 1996 (the "Escrow Agreement")
among Homestead, Security Capital and State Street Bank and Trust Company (the
"Escrow Agent"), a portion of the shares of Homestead common stock issuable to
Security Capital as part of the Homestead transaction described above was
placed in an escrow account maintained with the Escrow Agent. In general, as
PTR and ATLANTIC advance funds to Homestead in accordance with the terms of
their respective funding commitment agreements with Homestead, a portion of the
shares of Homestead's common stock in the escrow account will be released to
Security Capital, together with a proportionate amount of accrued dividends, if
any. On January 1, 2000, unless all of the shares of Homestead's common stock
placed in the escrow account have been released to Security Capital sooner in
accordance with the provisions of the Escrow Agreement, the Escrow Agent will
release to Homestead all of the shares of Homestead's common stock remaining in
the escrow account. All dividends or other distributions paid by Homestead in
respect of the shares of Homestead's common stock held in the escrow account
shall be retained by the Escrow Agent for the benefit of the party to whom the
related shares of Homestead's common stock are ultimately issued. The Escrow
Agent will vote all shares of Homestead's common stock held in the escrow
account proportionately in accordance with the vote of all other Homestead
shareholders as instructed by Homestead. In the event that instructions are not
received, the Escrow Agent will not vote such shares. As of August 31, 1997,
1,162,902 shares of Homestead common stock remain in the escrow account.
 
Homestead Administrative Services Agreement
Homestead has entered into an administrative services agreement with Security
Capital (the "Homestead Administrative Services Agreement"), pursuant to which
Security Capital, through SCGroup, provides Homestead with administrative
services with respect to certain aspects of Homestead's business. These
services include, but are not limited to, insurance administration, accounts
payable administration, internal audit, cash management, human resources,
management information systems, tax and legal administration, research,
shareholder communications and investor relations. The fees payable to Security
Capital are based on Security Capital's cost of the services provided plus an
additional 20%. Any arrangements under the Homestead Administrative Services
Agreement for the provision of services are required to be commercially
reasonable and on terms not less favorable than those which could be obtained
from unaffiliated third parties. The Homestead Administrative Services
Agreement expires on December 31, 1997 and is automatically renewed for
successive one-year terms, subject to approval by a majority of the
disinterested members of the Homestead Board of Directors of the annual
compensation payable to Security Capital for services rendered to Homestead.
Homestead paid fees to Security Capital for administrative services of
$1,080,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1997 and $375,000 for the period
from October 17, 1996 (the spin-off date) to December 31, 1996.
 
PTR
 
Merger and Public Offerings
On December 6, 1994, PTR entered into a merger agreement with PACIFIC and
Security Capital, providing for the merger (the "PTR Merger") of PACIFIC with
and into PTR. The PTR Merger was consummated on March 23, 1995 with 80.7% of
PTR's common shares being voted in favor of the PTR Merger. Pursuant to the PTR
Merger, each then outstanding share of PACIFIC common stock was converted into
the right to receive 0.611 PTR common shares. Security Capital was the
principal stockholder of PACIFIC prior to the PTR Merger, having owned
approximately 97.6% of PACIFIC's common stock outstanding at the time of the
PTR Merger. Security Capital's PACIFIC common stock was converted into
8,266,112 PTR common shares pursuant to the terms of the PTR Merger. In
addition, William D. Sanders, the Chairman of Security Capital, and William G.
Myers and John C. Schweitzer, both trustees of PTR, received 9,165, 9,165 and
7,637 PTR common shares, respectively, upon conversion of their PACIFIC common
stock pursuant to the terms of the PTR Merger. Upon consummation of the PTR
Merger, PTR changed its name from "Property Trust of America" to "Security
Capital Pacific Trust."
 
PTR REIT Management Agreement
Prior to the Mergers, Security Capital Pacific Incorporated (the "PTR REIT
Manager") was owned by Security Capital. All officers of PTR were employees of
the PTR REIT Manager and PTR had no employees. Pursuant to a
 
                                       79
<PAGE>
 
REIT management agreement (the "PTR REIT Management Agreement"), the PTR REIT
Manager provided both strategic and day-to-day management to PTR, including
research, investment analysis, acquisition and development services, asset
management, capital markets services, disposition of assets and legal and
accounting services. The PTR REIT Management Agreement required PTR to pay a
base annual fee of $855,000 plus 16% of cash flow (as defined in the PTR REIT
Management Agreement) in excess of $4,837,000. The PTR REIT Manager also
received a fee of 0.25% per year on the average daily balance of cash
equivalent investments. PTR was obligated to reimburse the PTR REIT Manager for
certain expenses incurred by the PTR REIT Manager on behalf of PTR relating to
PTR's operations, primarily including third party legal, accounting and similar
fees paid on behalf of PTR, and travel expenses incurred in seeking financing,
property acquisitions, property sales, property development, attendance at
trustee and shareholder meetings and similar activities on behalf of PTR. The
PTR REIT Management Agreement was renewable by PTR annually, subject to a
determination by the independent trustees that the PTR REIT Manager's
performance had been satisfactory and that the compensation payable to the PTR
REIT Manager was fair. Each of PTR and the PTR REIT Manager could terminate the
PTR REIT Management Agreement on 60 days' notice. For the six months ended June
30, 1997 and the years ended December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994, the PTR REIT
Manager earned REIT management fees totalling $9.3 million, $22.2 million,
$20.4 million and $13.2 million, respectively. This agreement was terminated on
September 9, 1997 and all employees of the PTR REIT Manager became employees of
PTR.
 
PTR Property Management
At July 31, 1997, SCG Realty Services Incorporated ("SCG Realty Services"), as
property manager for most of PTR's multifamily communities, managed
approximately 94.6% of PTR's operating multifamily units, with the balance in
various stages of transition to SCG Realty Services' management. Prior to
September 9, 1997, Security Capital owned SCG Realty Services. Rates for
services performed by SCG Realty Services were subject to annual approval by
PTR's independent trustees (who receive an annual review of fees paid for
similar services from an independent third party). During the six months ended
June 30, 1997 and the years ended December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994, PTR paid
aggregate fees of $5.5 million, $9.7 million, $7.9 million and $7.1 million,
respectively, to SCG Realty Services. This agreement terminated on September 9,
1997 and all employees of SCG Realty Services became employees of PTR.
 
PTR Investor Agreement
On September 9, 1997, PTR and Security Capital amended and restated their
investor agreement. Such agreement is substantially similar to the ATLANTIC
Amended Investor Agreement described above except: (i) it restricts the ability
of Security Capital (or a group of which it is a member) from acquiring in
excess of 49% of PTR's common shares subject to certain exceptions and (ii) it
permits PTR to increase the size of the PTR Board of Trustees to eight members.
 
Administrative Services Agreement
On September 9, 1997, PTR and Security Capital entered into an administrative
services agreement, pursuant to which Security Capital will provide PTR with
certain administrative and other services with respect to certain aspects of
PTR's business, as selected from time to time by PTR at its option. These
services are expected to include, but are not limited to, payroll and tax
administration services, cash management and accounts payable services, data
processing and other computer services, human resources, research, investor
relations, insurance administration and legal administration. The fees payable
to Security Capital will be equal to Security Capital's cost of providing such
services plus 20%, subject to a maximum amount of approximately $7.7 million
during the initial term of the agreement, of which approximately $2.2 million
will apply to the period between September 9, 1997 and December 31, 1997 and
the remainder will apply to 1998. Cost savings under this agreement will accrue
to PTR. The agreement will be for an initial term expiring on December 31, 1998
and will be automatically renewed for consecutive one-year terms, subject to
approval by a majority of the independent members of the PTR Board of Trustees.
 
License Agreement
On September 9, 1997, PTR and Security Capital entered into a license agreement
(the "PTR License Agreement") pursuant to which Security Capital granted PTR a
non-exclusive license to use Security Capital's registered logo and the non-
exclusive right to use the name "Security Capital." The term of the license is
for a period of 15 years, subject to PTR's right to extend the license for up
to two additional five-year periods. As part of the PTR License Agreement,
Security Capital agrees that, during the term of the agreement, it will not
exercise its rights under the PTR Declaration of Trust to cause PTR to change
its name.

Protection of Business Agreement
On September 9, 1997, PTR and Security Capital entered into a protection of
business agreement (the "PTR Protection of Business Agreement"), which
prohibits Security Capital and its affiliates from providing, anywhere within
the United States, directly or indirectly, substantially the same services as
those currently provided by the PTR REIT Manager and the PTR Property Manager
to any entity that owns or operates multifamily properties. The PTR Protection
of Business Agreement does not prohibit Security Capital or its affiliates from
owning the securities of any class of PTR or ATLANTIC. The PTR Protection of
Business Agreement terminates in the event of an acquisition, directly or
indirectly, (other than by purchase from Security Capital or any of its
affiliates), by any person (or group of persons acting in concert), other than
Security Capital or any of its affiliates, of the greater of (i) 25% or more of
the outstanding shares of voting securities of PTR and (ii) the percentage of
outstanding voting securities of PTR owned directly or indirectly by Security
Capital and its affiliates, in either case without the prior written consent of
the PTR Board of Trustees. Subject to earlier termination pursuant to the
preceding sentence, the PTR Protection of Business Agreement will terminate on
September 9, 2000.
 
PTR Development Services
PTR owns all of the preferred stock of PTR Development Services Incorporated
("PTR Development Services"), which entitles PTR to 95% of the net operating
cash flow of PTR Development Services. Security Capital owned all of the common
stock of PTR Development Services during 1995. Effective as of January 1, 1996,
Security Capital transferred such common stock to an unaffiliated trust. The
common stock is entitled to receive the remaining 5% of net operating cash
flow. As of June 30, 1997 and December 31, 1996, PTR had mortgage loans
outstanding to PTR Development Services aggregating $19.4 million and $18.8
million, respectively, for the purchase of land for multifamily development.
Owning land through PTR Development Services provides greater flexibility for
the use of such land and the disposition of excess parcels. PTR expects to make
similar loans to PTR Development Services in 1997. The aggregate amount of such
loans will vary depending upon the volume of development activity.
 
SCI
 
SCI REIT Management Agreement
Prior to the Mergers, Security Capital Industrial Incorporated (the "SCI REIT
Manager") was owned by Security Capital. All officers of SCI were employees of
the SCI REIT Manager and SCI had no employees. Pursuant to a REIT management
agreement (the "SCI REIT Management Agreement"), the SCI REIT Manager provided
both strategic and day-to-day management, research, investment analysis,
acquisition and due diligence, development, marketing, asset management,
capital markets, disposition of assets, management information systems support
and legal and accounting services. The SCI REIT Management Agreement required
SCI to pay a base annual fee of approximately 16% of cash flow as defined in
the SCI REIT Management Agreement. The SCI REIT Manager also received a fee of
0.20% per year on the average daily balance of cash equivalent investments. SCI
was obligated to reimburse the SCI REIT Manager for all expenses incurred by
the SCI REIT Manager on behalf of SCI relating to SCI's operations, primarily
including third-party legal, accounting, property development and similar fees
paid on behalf of SCI, and travel expenses incurred in seeking financing,
property acquisitions, property sales, attendance at SCI Board of Trustees and
shareholder meetings and similar activities on behalf of SCI. The SCI REIT
Management Agreement was renewable annually by SCI, subject to a determination
by the independent trustees that the SCI REIT Manager's performance had been
satisfactory and that the compensation payable to the SCI REIT Manager was
fair. Each of SCI and the SCI REIT Manager could terminate the SCI REIT
Management Agreement on 60 days' notice. For the six months ended June 30, 1997
and for the years ended December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994, the SCI REIT Manager
earned REIT management fees of $12.8 million, $21.5 million, $14.2 million and
$8.7 million, respectively, pursuant to the SCI REIT Management Agreement. This
agreement was terminated on September 9, 1997 and all employees of the SCI REIT
Manager became employees of SCI.
 
SCI Property Management
SCI Client Services Incorporated ("Client Services"), an affiliate of the SCI
REIT Manager, began providing property management services for certain SCI
properties in January 1994. At July 31, 1997, the Property Manager was
providing property management services in 30 target market cities and was
actively managing 82.3 million square feet, 95.6% of SCI's operating portfolio
of 85.9 million square feet. Rates for services performed by Client Services
ranged between 1.5% and 3.0% per annum of property revenues and were subject to
annual approval by SCI's independent trustees and were at or below market
rates. SCI could terminate the property management agreements on 60 days'
notice. During the six months ended June 30, 1997 and the year ended December
31, 1996,
 
                                       81
<PAGE>
 
SCI paid property management fees and leasing commissions of $7.3 million and
$10.1 million to Client Services, respectively, and reimbursed Client Services
for maintenance recovery expenditures collected from SCI's customers of
$994,000 and $1.7 million, respectively. The management agreements between SCI
and Client Services were terminated on September 9, 1997, and all employees of
Client Services became employees of SCI.
 
SCI Investor Agreement
On September 9, 1997, SCI and Security Capital amended and restated their
investor agreement. Such agreement is substantially similar to the ATLANTIC
Amended Investor Agreement described above.
 
Administrative Services Agreement
On September 9, 1997, SCI and Security Capital entered into an administrative
services agreement, pursuant to which Security Capital will provide SCI with
certain administrative and other services with respect to certain aspects of
SCI's business, as selected from time to time by SCI at its option. These
services are expected to include, but are not limited to, payroll and tax
administration services, cash management and accounts payable services, data
processing and other computer services, human resources, research, investor
relations, insurance administration and legal administration. The fees payable
to Security Capital will be equal to Security Capital's cost of providing such
services plus 20%, subject to a maximum amount of approximately $7.1 million
during the initial term of the agreement, of which approximately $2.0 million
will apply to the period between September 9, 1997 and December 31, 1997 and
the remainder will apply to 1998. Cost savings under this agreement will accrue
to SCI. The agreement will be for an initial term expiring on December 31, 1998
and will be automatically renewed for consecutive one-year terms, subject to
approval by a majority of the independent members of the SCI Board of Trustees.
 
License Agreement
On September 9, 1997, SCI and Security Capital entered into a license agreement
(the "SCI License Agreement") pursuant to which Security Capital granted SCI a
non-exclusive license to use Security Capital's registered logo and the non-
exclusive right to use the name "Security Capital." The term of the license is
for a period of 15 years, subject to SCI's right to extend the license for up
to two additional five-year periods. As part of the SCI License Agreement,
Security Capital agrees that during the term of the agreement, it will not
exercise its rights under the SCI Declaration of Trust to cause SCI to change
its name.
 
Protection of Business Agreement
On September 9, 1997, SCI and Security Capital entered into a protection of
business agreement (the "SCI Protection of Business Agreement"), which
prohibits Security Capital and its affiliates from providing, anywhere within
the United States, directly or indirectly, substantially the same services as
those currently provided by the SCI REIT Manager and the SCI Property Manager
to any entity that owns or operates distribution properties. The SCI Protection
of Business Agreement does not prohibit Security Capital or its affiliates from
owning the securities of any class of SCI. The SCI Protection of Business
Agreement will terminate in the event of an acquisition, directly or
indirectly, (other than by purchase from Security Capital or any of its
affiliates), by any person (or group of persons acting in concert), other than
Security Capital or any of its affiliates, of the greater of (i) 25% or more of
the outstanding shares of voting securities of SCI and (ii) the percentage of
outstanding voting securities of SCI owned directly or indirectly by Security
Capital and its affiliates, in either case without the prior written consent of
the SCI Board of Trustees. Subject to earlier termination pursuant to the
preceding sentence, the SCI Protection of Business Agreement will terminate on
the September 9, 2000.
 
SCI Development Services
To better serve national companies which are valued SCI customers and enable
SCI to exclusively meet all of their distribution space needs, SCI Development
Services Incorporated ("SCI Development Services") develops for these customers
build-to-suit distribution space facilities which do not meet SCI's strict
investment criteria. SCI will not own these buildings but owns a preferred
stock interest representing 95% of the net operating cash flow of SCI
Development Services. Security Capital owned all of the common stock of SCI
Development Services during 1995. Effective as of January 1, 1996, Security
Capital transferred such common stock to an unaffiliated trust. The common
stock is entitled to receive the remaining 5% of net operating cash flow.
Through its preferred stock ownership, SCI will realize substantially all
economic benefits of SCI Development Services' activities. Under a separate
agreement, the SCI REIT Manager provides SCI Development Services with day-to-
day management services for a fee based on 16% of SCI Development Services'
pre-tax cash flow plus .20% of the average daily balance of cash equivalent
investments, including gains and losses realized on property sales. The fee
incurred for
 
                                       82
<PAGE>
 
the six months ended June 30, 1997 and the years ended December 31, 1996 and
1995 was approximately $1.1 million, $1.3 million and $700,000, respectively
(there was no fee incurred in 1994). During the six months ended June 30, 1997
and the years ended December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994, SCI earned $10.4 million,
$8.5 million, $2.2 million and $17,000, respectively, in interest income and
had $4.4 million, $7.4 million, $1.9 million and $17,000, respectively, in
accrued interest receivable from SCI Development Services. As of June 30, 1997
and December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994, SCI had outstanding $174.2 million,
$162.0 million, $31.1 million and $1.1 million, respectively, of mortgage loans
to SCI Development Services for development and acquisition of distribution
facilities. SCI expects to make similar loans to SCI Development Services in
1997, however, SCI is unable to quantify the amount of such loans.
 
SC-USREALTY
 
Advisory Agreement
Pursuant to an agreement dated July 1, 1997 (the "Advisory Agreement"), SC-
USREALTY appointed Security Capital (EU) Management S.A. ("USREALTY Adviser")
as operating advisor to provide SC-USREALTY with advice with respect to
strategy, investments, financing, administrative and all other operating
matters affecting SC-USREALTY. The USREALTY Adviser receives a single all-
inclusive annual advisory fee equal to 1.25% of SC-USREALTY's average monthly
market value of assets, excluding investments in Security Capital securities
and investments of short-term cash and cash equivalents. The fee payable to the
USREALTY Adviser is reduced to the extent that the third-party operating and
administrative expenses of SC-USREALTY exceed .25% of assets per annum. The

As of April 24, 1997, Security Capital and William D. Sanders, Chairman and
Chief Executive Officer of Security Capital, entered into an agreement (the
"Sanders Agreement") under which Security Capital agreed to acquire all the
shares of a corporation owned by Mr. Sanders in exchange for 19,938 Class A
Shares, providing Mr. Sanders increased direct ownership in the Company. The
corporation's sole assets are warrants and options issued to Mr. Sanders
between 1991 and 1993 to purchase an aggregate of 16,143 Class A Shares and
$8,047,303 principal amount of 2014 Convertible Debentures (convertible into an
aggregate of 7,693 Class A Shares), or a total of 23,836 Class A Shares, with
an aggregate exercise price of approximately $11.3 million. All the options and
warrants are fully vested and expire in 2002. The Company and Mr. Sanders
agreed to use the estimated fair market value of the Class A Shares between
April 1 and April 21, 1997 of $1,205 per share in determining the value of the
23,836 Class A Shares, which was approximately $28.7 million. The Sanders
Agreement was entered into as an alternative to Mr. Sanders funding the
exercise of the options and warrants with Class A Shares owned by Mr. Sanders,
which was rejected by the Company. Under the Sanders Agreement, the Company
issued $17.4 million of Class A Shares which is equal to the difference between
the total value of the shares issuable ($28.7 million), and the total exercise
price ($11.3 million) for the options and warrants. As additional consideration
in the transaction, the Company issued $6.6 million of Class A Shares for the
value of the holder's ability to defer exercising the warrants and options
until 2002 in accordance with their terms. As a result, the Company agreed to
issue 19,938 Class A Shares with an aggregate value of $24 million. The
transaction will result in a noncash, non-recurring charge to earnings of the
Company in 1997 of approximately $6.6 million.
 
On April 24, 1997, SCI Logistics Services Incorporated, an entity in which SCI
owns a majority of the economic interest, acquired the refrigerated warehouse

companies were subsequently
 
                                       85
<PAGE>
 
transferred to a new entity, CS Integrated LLC ("CSI"), which is 60% owned by
an entity in which SCI owns a majority of the economic interest and 40% owned
by an affiliate of Hunt Financial Corporation. This related entity paid
approximately $73.4 million for its interest in CSI and the affiliate of Hunt
Financial Corporation paid approximately $49.0 million for its interest in CSI,
with approximately 80% being funded through debt and 20% being funded through
equity capital by each entity. Under the terms of its agreement with Hunt
Financial
Corporation's affiliate, the SCI related entity has the option to increase its
ownership interest in CSI to 80% as such entity invests additional equity
capital. Hunt Financial Corporation is a wholly owned subsidiary of Hunt
Consolidated Inc., which is part of the Hunt family interests headed by Ray L.
Hunt, who is a director of Security Capital.

loans having a maturity of ninety days or less, in effect from time to time,

of the promissory note, Security Capital lent Mr. Kerr $500,000, which amount
is due on the earlier of September 8, 2007 or 90 days after Mr. Kerr is no
longer employed by Security Capital. No interest shall be charged on the unpaid
balance.
 
On September 11, 1997, Security Capital entered into a secured promissory note
and related pledge agreement with David C. Dressler, Jr., a Co-Chairman of
Homestead. Under the terms of the secured promissory note, Security Capital has
agreed to loan Mr. Dressler up to $1,300,000, which amount is due on the
earliest of December 31, 1998, 90 days after the sale of certain real estate
owned by Mr. Dressler or 120 days after Mr. Dressler is no longer an officer of
an affiliate of Security Capital. Interest on the unpaid balance accrues at
seven and one-half percent per year and is payable annually on January 15 each
year the secured promissory note is outstanding. The proceeds of the note will
be used to pay personal obligations of Mr. Dressler. The secured promissory
note is secured by Class A Shares of Security Capital, 2014 Convertible
Debentures and options to purchase Class A Shares and 2014 Convertible
Debentures owned by Mr. Dressler. In addition, Mr. Dressler has agreed to
obtain a life insurance policy on himself in the amount of $1,300,000 which
policy names Security Capital as beneficiary. Mr. Dressler has also agreed that
if he exercises any options for Security Capital securities prior to repayment
of the secured promissory note, any securities obtained upon exercise of such
options shall become subject to the pledge agreement. The net proceeds (after
payment of minimum withholding taxes) of any securities obtained upon exercise
of such options and disposed of by Mr. Dressler and 50% of Mr. Dressler's share
of the net proceeds of sale of certain real estate owned by Mr. Dressler shall
be immediately applied to the outstanding and unpaid interest and principal on
the secured promissory note.

                          DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK
 
The following summary of terms of the stock of Security Capital does not
purport to be complete and is subject to and qualified in its entirety by
reference to Maryland law and to the Charter and Bylaws, copies of which are
filed as exhibits to the Registration Statement of which this Prospectus is a
part.
 
GENERAL
 
The authorized stock of Security Capital consists of 250,000,000 shares,
consisting of 20,000,000 Class A Shares, 229,861,000 Class B Shares and 139,000
shares of Series A Preferred Stock. The Board may, by articles supplementary,
classify or reclassify any unissued shares of stock from time to time by
setting or changing the preferences, conversion or other rights, voting powers,
restrictions, limitations as to dividends and other distributions,
qualifications or terms or conditions of redemption of such stock. No holder of
any class of stock of Security Capital will have any preemptive right to
subscribe for any securities of Security Capital except as may be granted by
the Board pursuant to an agreement between Security Capital and a shareholder.
Under Maryland law, shareholders are generally not liable for Security
Capital's debts or obligations. For a description of certain provisions that
could have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control,
see "Risk Factors--Limitations on Acquisition of Shares and Change in Control"
and "Certain Provisions of Maryland Law and of Security Capital's Charter and
Bylaws."
 
The transfer agent and registrar for the Shares is BankBoston, N.A., 150 Royall
Street, Canton, Massachusetts 02021.
 
COMMON STOCK
 
The holders of outstanding Class A Shares are entitled to one vote, and the
holders of outstanding Class B Shares are entitled to one two-hundredth
(1/200th) of a vote, for each share held of record on all matters submitted to
a vote of shareholders. Unless otherwise required by Maryland law, the Class A
Shares and the Class B Shares will vote as a single class with respect to all
matters submitted to a vote of shareholders of Security Capital, including the
election of directors. Shareholders do not have the right to cumulate their
votes in the election of directors, which means that the holders of a majority
of the outstanding Class A Shares can elect all of the directors then standing
for election.
 
Commencing January 1, 1998, each Class A Share may be converted into 50 Class B
Shares at the holder's option at any time. Class B Shares are not convertible
into Class A Shares or any other security.
 
Holders of Class A Shares are entitled to receive ratably such dividends as may
be authorized by the Board out of funds legally available therefor. Holders of
Class B Shares are entitled to dividends equal to one-fiftieth (1/50th) of the
amount per share declared by the Board for each Class A Share. Dividends with
respect to the Class B Shares will be paid in the same form and at the same
time as dividends with respect to the Class A Shares, except that, in the event
of a stock split or stock dividend, holders of Class A Shares will receive
Class A Shares and holders of Class B Shares will receive Class B Shares,
unless otherwise specifically designated by resolution of the Board. Security
Capital has no present intention to pay a dividend on Class B Shares or Class A
Shares (which would necessitate a one-fiftieth (1/50th) equivalent dividend on
Class B Shares) in the future.
 
In the event of the liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of Security Capital,
holders of Class A Shares and Class B Shares are entitled to share ratably in
all assets remaining after the payment of liabilities, with holders of Class B
Shares entitled to receive per share one-fiftieth (1/50th) of any amount per
share received by holders of Class A Shares. Neither holders of Class A Shares
or Class B Shares shall have preemptive rights to subscribe for additional
shares of either class. All outstanding Class A Shares are, and all Class B
Shares to be outstanding upon completion of the Offering will be, fully paid
and non-assessable.
 
PREFERRED STOCK
 
The Board is empowered by the Charter, without the approval of shareholders, to
cause shares of preferred stock to be issued in one or more series and to
determine, among other things, the number of preferred shares of each series
and the rights, preferences, powers and limitations of each series which may be
senior to the rights of Shares. The
 
                                       90
<PAGE>
 
issuance of preferred stock could have the effect of delaying, deferring or
preventing a change in control of Security Capital and may adversely affect the
voting and other rights of shareholders. Upon completion of the Offering and
except for the Series A Preferred Stock described below, no shares of preferred
stock will be outstanding and Security Capital has no present plans to issue
any preferred stock following completion of the Offering other than as
contemplated by the Rights Agreement (as defined below).
 
Security Capital currently has outstanding 139,000 shares of Series A Preferred
Stock. Generally, the Series A Preferred Stock is entitled to receive quarterly
cumulative cash dividends in an annual amount equal to $75 per share. The
Series A Preferred Stock is entitled to receive $1,000 per share, plus an
amount equal to accrued and unpaid dividends, if any, upon any liquidation,
dissolution or winding up of Security Capital before any distribution could be
made to holders of Class A Shares or Class B Shares. Each share of Series A
Preferred Stock is convertible at the option of the holder, into 0.76184 Class
A Shares, subject to customary adjustments to prevent dilution. In the event
that a holder of the Series A Preferred Stock would be prohibited under the
Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended, from owning securities
constituting or convertible into 5% or more of the outstanding Class A Shares,
then the conversion rights of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock by such
holder shall be modified as follows: (i) the number of shares of Series A
Preferred Stock held by such holder which may then be converted by such holder
without resulting in such holder owning 5% or more of the Class A Shares
outstanding after such conversion shall be convertible into Class A Shares; and
(ii) any shares of Series A Preferred Stock held by such holder in excess of
the number of shares which may then be converted as described in clause (i)
will not be convertible into Class A Shares until such time as (and only to the
extent that) (A) such shares may be converted without resulting in such holder
owning 5% or more of the Class A Shares outstanding after such conversion or
(B) such shares are held by a person not prohibited from owning securities
constituting or convertible into 5% or more of Class A Shares as described
above.
 
The Series A Preferred Stock is not redeemable before March 29, 1999. On and
after such date, the Series A Preferred Stock is redeemable, in whole or in
part, at the option of Security Capital upon not less than 30 days' notice, in
cash at $1,000 per share plus accrued and unpaid dividends, if any. The vote or
consent of a majority of the Series A Preferred Stock is necessary (i) to
amend, alter or repeal any provision of the Articles Supplementary governing
the Series A Preferred Stock in a manner which materially and adversely affects
the voting powers, rights or preferences of the Series A Preferred Stock or
(ii) to authorize, reclassify, create or increase the authorized amount of any
stock of any class (or any security convertible into stock of any class)
ranking prior to the Series A Preferred Stock in the distribution of assets on
any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of Security Capital or in the
payment of dividends. The Series A Preferred Stock is entitled to one vote per
Class A Share into which the Series A Preferred Stock is then convertible,
voting together with the Class A Shares, on any of the following matters if the
Class A Shares are entitled to vote thereon: (i) an amendment, alteration or
repeal of any of the provisions of the Charter, (ii) a consolidation or merger
of Security Capital with or into another entity or of another entity with or
into Security Capital, (iii) a sale or transfer of all or substantially all of
Security Capital's assets or (iv) the voluntary liquidation or dissolution of
Security Capital. Also, the Series A Preferred Stock is entitled to one-half
vote per Class A Share into which the Series A Preferred Stock is then
convertible, voting together with the Class A Shares, on any other matter
submitted to a vote of Security Capital's shareholders.
 
PURCHASE RIGHTS
 
On April 21, 1997, the Board declared a dividend of one Purchase Right for each
Share outstanding at the close of business on April 21, 1997 (the "Rights
Record Date") to the holders of Shares of record as of the Rights Record Date.
The dividend was paid on the Rights Record Date. The holders of any additional
Shares issued after the Rights Record Date and before the redemption or
expiration of the Purchase Rights will also be entitled to one Shareholder
Purchase Right for each such additional Share. Each Purchase Right entitles the
registered holder, under certain circumstances, to purchase from Security
Capital, in the event the underlying share is a Class A Share, one one-
hundredth of a Participating Preferred Share of Security Capital at a price of
$6,000 per one one-hundredth of a Participating Preferred Share (the "Purchase
Price"), subject to adjustment. In the event the underlying share is a Class B
Share, the Purchase Right entitles the registered holder under certain
circumstances to purchase from Security Capital one five-thousandth of a
Participating Preferred Share of Security Capital at a price of $120 per one
five-thousandth of a Participating Preferred Share. The description and terms
of the Purchase Rights are set forth in the Rights Agreement dated as of April
21, 1997 between Security Capital and The First National Bank of Boston, as
rights agent (the "Rights Agreement").
 
 
                                       91
<PAGE>
 
The Purchase Rights will be exercisable and will be evidenced by separate
certificates only after the earlier to occur of: (1) 10 days following a public
announcement that a person or group of affiliated or associated persons, other
than SC-USREALTY and certain affiliates of Security Capital, has acquired
beneficial ownership of 20% or more of the voting power of the voting equity
securities of Security Capital (thereby becoming an "Acquiring Person") or (2)
15 business days (or such later date as may be determined by action of the
Board prior to such time as any person or group of affiliated persons becomes
an Acquiring Person) following the commencement of, or announcement of an
intention to make, a tender offer or exchange offer the consummation of which
would result in the beneficial ownership by a person or group of persons of 25%
or more of the voting power of the voting equity securities of Security Capital
(the first to occur of such dates being called the "Rights Distribution Date").
With respect to any of the Class A Share or Class B Share certificates
outstanding as of the Rights Record Date, until the Rights Distribution Date
the Purchase Rights will be evidenced by such certificate. Until the Rights
Distribution Date (or earlier redemption or expiration of the Purchase Rights),
new certificates issued after the Rights Record Date upon transfer or new
issuance of Class A Shares or Class B Shares will contain a notation
incorporating the Rights Agreement by reference. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
if the Board in good faith determines that a person who would otherwise be an
Acquiring Person under the Rights Agreement has become such inadvertently, and
such person divests as promptly as practicable a sufficient number of Class A
Shares or Class B Shares so that such person would no longer be an Acquiring
Person, then such person shall not be deemed to be an Acquiring Person for
purposes of the Rights Agreement.
 
The Purchase Rights will expire on April 21, 2007 (the "Final Expiration
Date"), unless the Final Expiration Date is extended or unless the Rights are
earlier redeemed or exchanged by Security Capital, in each case as described
below.
 
The Purchase Price payable, and the number of Participating Preferred Shares or
other securities or property issuable, upon exercise of the Purchase Rights are
subject to adjustment under certain circumstances from time to time to prevent
dilution. With certain exceptions, no adjustment in the Purchase Price will be
required until cumulative adjustments require an adjustment of at least 1% in
such Purchase Price.
 
Participating Preferred Shares purchasable upon exercise of the Purchase Rights
will not be redeemable. Each Participating Preferred Share will be entitled to
a minimum preferential quarterly distribution payment of $1 per share but will
be entitled to an aggregate distribution of 100 times the distribution declared
per Class A Share, or if no Class A Shares are outstanding, 2 times the
distribution declared per Class B Share. Each Participating Preferred Share
will have 100 votes, voting together with the Shares. In the event of
liquidation, the holders of the Participating Preferred Shares will be entitled
to a minimum preferential liquidation payment of $1 per share but will be
entitled to an aggregate payment of 100 times the payment made per Class A
Share, or if no Class A Shares are outstanding, 2 times the payment made per
Class B Share. In the event of any merger, consolidation or other transaction
in which Class A Shares or Class B Shares are exchanged, each Participating
Preferred Share will be entitled to receive 100 times the amount received per
Class A Share or Class B Share, as the case may be. In the event of issuance of
Participating Preferred Shares upon exercise of the Purchase Rights, in order
to facilitate trading, a depositary receipt may be issued for each one one-
hundredth or one five-thousandth of a Participating Preferred Share. The
Purchase Rights will be protected by customary antidilution provisions.
 
In the event that any person or group of affiliated or associated persons
becomes an Acquiring Person, proper provision will be made so that each holder
of a Purchase Right, other than Purchase Rights beneficially owned by the
Acquiring Person (which will thereafter be void), will thereafter have the
right to receive upon exercise a number of Class A Shares or Class B Shares, as
the case may be, having a market value (determined in accordance with the
Rights Agreement) of twice the Purchase Price. In lieu of the issuance of Class
A Shares or Class B Shares, as the case may be, upon exercise of Purchase
Rights, the Board may under certain circumstances, and if there is an
insufficient number of Class A Shares or Class B Shares, as the case may be,
authorized but unissued or held as treasury Shares to permit the exercise in
full of the Purchase Rights, the Board is required to, take such action as may
be necessary to cause Security Capital to issue or pay upon the exercise of
Purchase Rights, cash (including by way of a reduction of purchase price),
property, other securities or any combination of the foregoing having an
aggregate value equal to that of the Class A Shares or Class B Shares, as the
case may be, which otherwise would have been issuable upon the exercise of
Purchase Rights.
 
In the event that, after any person or group becomes an Acquiring Person,
Security Capital is acquired in a merger or other business combination
transaction of 50% or more of its consolidated assets or earning power are
sold,
 
                                       92
<PAGE>
 
proper provision will be made so that each holder of a Purchase Right will
thereafter have the right to receive, upon the exercise thereof at the then
current Purchase Price, a number of shares of common stock of the acquiring
company having a market value (determined in accordance with the Rights
Agreement) of twice the Purchase Price.
 
At any time after any person or group becomes an Acquiring Person and prior to
the acquisition by that person or group of 50% or more of the outstanding Class
A Shares or Class B Shares, the Board may exchange the Purchase Rights (other
than Purchase Rights owned by that person or group which will have become
void), in whole or in part, at an exchange ratio of one Class A Share or Class
B Share, as the case may be (or one one-hundredth or one five-thousandth of a
Participating Preferred Share as the case may be), per Purchase Right (subject
to adjustment).
 
As soon as practicable after a Rights Distribution Date, Security Capital is
obligated to use its best efforts to file a registration statement under the
Securities Act relating to the securities issuable upon exercise of Purchase
Rights and to cause such registration statement to become effective as soon as
practicable.
 
At any time prior to the time a person or group of persons becomes an Acquiring
Person, the Board may redeem the Purchase Rights in whole, but not in part, at
a price of $.01 per Purchase Right (the "Redemption Price") payable in cash,
Shares or any other form of consideration deemed appropriate by the Board. The
redemption of the Purchase Rights may be made effective at such time, on such
basis and with such conditions as the Board in its sole discretion may
establish. Immediately upon the effectiveness of any redemption of the Purchase
Rights, the right to exercise the Purchase Rights will terminate and the only
right of the holders of Purchase Rights will be to receive the Redemption
Price.
 
The terms of the Purchase Rights may be amended by the Board without the
consent of the holders of the Purchase Rights, except that from and after the
time any person or group of affiliated or associated persons becomes an
Acquiring Person no such amendment may adversely affect the interests of the
holders of the Purchase Rights and in no event shall any such amendment change
the 20% threshold at which a person acquiring beneficial ownership of Class A
Shares or Class B Shares becomes an Acquiring Person.
 
The Purchase Rights have certain anti-takeover effects. The Purchase Rights
will cause substantial dilution to a person or group that attempts to acquire
Security Capital on terms not approved by its Board, except pursuant to an
offer conditioned on a substantial number of Purchase Rights being acquired.
The Purchase Rights should not interfere with any merger or other business
combination approved by the Board since the Purchase Rights may be redeemed by
Security Capital at the Redemption Price prior to the time that a person or
group has acquired beneficial ownership of 20% or more of the voting power of
the voting equity securities of Security Capital. The form of Rights Agreement
specifying the terms of the Purchase Rights has been incorporated by reference
into the registration statement of which this Prospectus forms a part and is
incorporated herein by reference. The foregoing description of the Purchase
Rights does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and is qualified in
its entirety by reference to, the Rights Agreement, including the definitions
therein of certain terms.
 
RESTRICTION ON SIZE OF HOLDINGS OF SHARES
 
The Charter contains certain restrictions on the number of Shares that
individual shareholders may own. For the operating companies to qualify as
REITs under the Code, no more than 50% of the value of their shares (after
taking into account options to acquire shares) may be owned, directly or
indirectly, by five or fewer individuals (as defined in the Code to include
certain entities and constructive ownership among specified family members)
during the last half of a taxable year (other than the first taxable year), by
100 or more persons during at least 335 days of a taxable year or during a
proportionate part of a shorter taxable year. Because certain of the operating
companies are REITs, their respective charters and Security Capital's Charter
contain restrictions on the acquisition of shares intended to ensure compliance
with these requirements.
 
Subject to certain exceptions specified in the Charter, no holder may own, or
be deemed to own by virtue of the attribution provisions of the Code, more than
9.8% (the "Ownership Limit") of the number or value of the issued and
outstanding shares of Security Capital's stock. The Board, upon receipt of a
ruling from the IRS or an opinion of counsel or other evidence satisfactory to
the Board and upon such other conditions as the Board may direct, may also
exempt a proposed transferee from the Ownership Limit. As a condition of such
exemption, the proposed transferee must give written notice to Security Capital
of the proposed transfer no later than the fifteenth day prior to any transfer
which, if consummated, would result in the intended transferee owning shares of
Security Capital's
 
                                       93
<PAGE>
 
stock in excess of the Ownership Limit. The Board may require such opinions of
counsel, affidavits, undertakings or agreements as it may deem necessary or
advisable in order to determine or ensure the operating companies' status as
REITs. Any transfer of Shares that would (i) create a direct or indirect
ownership of shares of Security Capital's stock in excess of the Ownership
Limit or (ii) result in a Security Capital investee being "closely held" within
the meaning of Section 856(h) of the Code, shall be null and void ab initio,
and the intended transferee will acquire no rights to the shares of Security
Capital's stock. The foregoing restrictions on transferability and ownership
will not apply if the Board determines, which determination must be approved by
the shareholders, that it is no longer in the best interests of Security
Capital to attempt to, or to continue to, assist Security Capital's operating
companies in qualifying as REITs. The Charter excludes SC-USREALTY (and its
transferees) from the Ownership Limit.
 
Any shares of Security Capital's stock, the purported transfer of which would
result in a person owning Shares in excess of the Ownership Limit or cause any
or all of the operating companies to become "closely held" under Section 856(h)
of the Code, that is not otherwise permitted as provided above will constitute
excess shares ("Excess Shares"), which will be transferred pursuant to the
Charter to a party not affiliated with Security Capital designated by Security
Capital as the trustee of a trust for the exclusive benefit of an organization
or organizations described in Sections 170(b)(1)(A) and 170(c) of the Code and
identified by the Board as the beneficiary or beneficiaries of the trust (the
"Charitable Beneficiary"), until such time as the Excess Shares are transferred
to a person whose ownership will not violate the restrictions on ownership.
While these Excess Shares are held in trust, they will be entitled to share in
any distributions which will be paid to the trust for the benefit of the
Charitable Beneficiary and may only be voted by the trustee for the benefit of
the Charitable Beneficiary. Subject to the Ownership Limit, the Excess Shares
shall be transferred by the trustee at the direction of Security Capital to any
person (if the Excess Shares would not be Excess Shares in the hands of such
person). The purported transferee will receive the lesser of (i) the price paid
by the purported transferee for the Excess Shares (or, if no consideration was
paid, fair market value on the day of the event causing the Excess Shares to be
held in trust) and (ii) the price received from the sale or other disposition
of the Excess Shares held in trust. Any proceeds in excess of the amount
payable to the purported transferee will be paid to the Charitable Beneficiary.
In addition, such Excess Shares held in trust are subject to purchase by
Security Capital for a 90-day period at a purchase price equal to the lesser of
(i) the price paid for the Excess Shares by the purported transferee (or, if no
consideration was paid, fair market value at the time of the event causing the
Shares to be held in trust) and (ii) the fair market value of the Excess Shares
on the date Security Capital elects to purchase. Fair market value, for these
purposes, means the last reported sales price reported on the NYSE on the
trading day immediately preceding the relevant date, or if not then traded on
the NYSE, the last reported sales price on the trading day immediately
preceding the relevant date as reported on any exchange or quotation system
over or through which the relevant class of shares of stock may be traded, or
if not then traded over or through any exchange or quotation system, then the
market price on the relevant date as determined in good faith by the Board.
 
From and after the purported transfer to the purported transferee of the Excess
Shares, the purported transferee shall cease to be entitled to distributions,
voting rights and other benefits with respect to the Excess Shares except the
right to payment on the transfer of the Excess Shares as described above. Any
distribution paid to a purported transferee on Excess Shares prior to the
discovery by Security Capital that such Excess Shares have been transferred in
violation of the provisions of the Charter shall be repaid, upon demand, to
Security Capital, which shall pay any such amounts to the trust for the benefit
of the Charitable Beneficiary. If the foregoing transfer restrictions are
determined to be void, invalid or unenforceable by any court of competent
jurisdiction, then the purported transferee of any Excess Shares may be deemed,
at the option of Security Capital, to have acted as an agent on behalf of
Security Capital in acquiring such Excess Shares and to hold such Excess Shares
on behalf of Security Capital.
 
All certificates representing Shares will bear a legend referring to the
restrictions described above.
 
Each shareholder shall upon demand be required to disclose to Security Capital
in writing such information with respect to the direct, indirect and
constructive ownership of Shares as the Board deems reasonably necessary to
assist its operating companies in complying with the provisions of the Code
applicable to REITs, to determine Security Capital's operating companies status
as REITs, to comply with the requirements of any taxing authority or
governmental agency or to determine any such compliance.
 
 
                                       94
<PAGE>
 
These ownership limitations could have the effect of discouraging a takeover or
other transaction in which holders of some, or a majority, of the Shares might
receive a premium for their Shares over the then prevailing market price or
which such holders might believe to be otherwise in their best interest.
 
 CERTAIN PROVISIONS OF MARYLAND LAW AND OF SECURITY CAPITAL'SCHARTER AND BYLAWS
 
The following paragraphs summarize certain provisions of Maryland law and the
Charter and Bylaws. The summary does not purport to be complete and is subject
to and qualified in its entirety by reference to Maryland law and to the
Charter and Bylaws, copies of which have been filed as exhibits to the
Registration Statement of which this Prospectus is a part.
 
CLASSIFICATION OF THE BOARD
 
The Bylaws provide that the number of directors may be established by the Board
but may not be fewer than three nor more than fifteen. Any vacancy will be
filled, at any regular meeting or at any special meeting called for that
purpose, by a majority of the remaining directors, except that a vacancy
resulting from an increase in the number of directors will be filled by a
majority vote of the entire Board. Pursuant to the terms of the Charter, the
directors are divided into three classes. One class holds office for a term
expiring at the annual meeting of shareholders to be held in 1998, another
class holds office for a term expiring at the annual meeting of shareholders to
be held in 1999 and another class holds office for a term expiring at the
annual meeting of shareholders to be held in 2000. As the term of each class
expires, directors in that class will be elected for a term of three years and
until their successors are duly elected and qualify. Security Capital believes
that classification of the Board will help to assure the continuity and
stability of Security Capital's business strategies and policies as determined
by the Board.
 
The classified director provision could have the effect of making the removal
of incumbent directors more time-consuming and difficult, which could
discourage a third party from making a tender offer or otherwise attempting to
obtain control of Security Capital, even though such an attempt might be
beneficial to Security Capital and its shareholders. At least two annual
meetings of shareholders, instead of one, will generally be required to effect
a change in a majority of the Board. Thus, the classified board provision could
increase the likelihood that incumbent directors will retain their positions.
 
DIRECTOR LIABILITY LIMITATION AND INDEMNIFICATION
 
Maryland law permits a Maryland corporation to include in its charter a
provision limiting the liability of its directors and officers to the
corporation and its stockholders for money damages except for liability
resulting from (a) actual receipt of an improper benefit or profit in money,
property or services or (b) active and deliberate dishonesty established by a
final judgment as being material to the cause of action. The Charter contains
such a provision which limits such liability to the maximum extent permitted by
Maryland law.
 
The Bylaws provide that Security Capital will, to the maximum extent permitted
by Maryland law in effect from time to time, indemnify and pay or reimburse
reasonable expenses in advance of final disposition of a proceeding to (a) any
individual who is a present or former director or officer of Security Capital
or (b) any individual who, while a director of Security Capital and at the
request of Security Capital, serves or has served another corporation,
partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or any other
enterprise as a director, officer, partner or trustee of such corporation,
partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise
and who is made a party to the proceeding by reason of his or her service in
that capacity. Security Capital has the power, with the approval of the Board,
to provide such indemnification and advancement of expenses to a person who has
served a predecessor of Security Capital in any of the capacities described in
(a) or (b) above and to any employee or agent of Security Capital or its
predecessors.
 
Maryland law requires a corporation (unless its charter requires otherwise,
which the Charter does not) to indemnify a director or officer who has been
successful, on the merits or otherwise, in the defense of any proceeding to
which he or she is made a party by reason of his or her service in that
capacity. Maryland law permits a corporation to indemnify its present and
former directors and officers, among others, against judgments, penalties,
fines, settlements and reasonable expenses actually incurred by them in
connection with any proceeding to which they
 
                                       95
<PAGE>
 
may be made party by reason of their service in those or other capacities
unless it is established that (a) the act or omission of the director or
officer was material to the matter giving rise to the proceeding and (i) was
committed in bad faith or (ii) was the result of active and deliberate
dishonesty, (b) the director or officer actually received an improper personal
benefit in money, property or services or (c) in the case of any criminal
proceeding, the director or officer had reasonable cause to believe that the
act or omission was unlawful. However, a Maryland corporation may not indemnify
for an adverse judgment in a suit by or in the right of the corporation or for
a judgment of liability on the basis that personal benefit was improperly
received, unless in either case a court orders indemnification and then only
for expenses. In addition, Maryland law permits a corporation to advance
reasonable expenses to a director or officer upon the corporation's receipt of
(a) a written affirmation by the director of officer of his or her good faith
belief that he or she has met the standard of conduct necessary for
indemnification by the corporation and (b) a written statement by or on his or
her behalf to repay the amount paid or reimbursed by the corporation if it
shall ultimately be determined that the standard of conduct was not met.
 
Additionally, Security Capital has entered into indemnity agreements with each
of its officers and directors which provide for reimbursement of all expenses
and liabilities of such officer or director, arising out of any lawsuit or
claim against such officer or director due to the fact that he or she was or is
serving as an officer or director, except for such liabilities and expenses (a)
the payment of which is judicially determined to be unlawful, (b) relating to
claims under Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act or (c) relating to judicially
determined criminal violations.
 
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may
be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling Security Capital
pursuant to the foregoing provisions, Security Capital has been informed that
in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is against public policy
as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.
 
BUSINESS COMBINATIONS
 
Under Maryland law, certain "business combinations" (including a merger,
consolidation, share exchange, or, in certain circumstances, an asset transfer
or issuance or reclassification of equity securities) between a Maryland
corporation and any person who beneficially owns 10% or more of the voting
power of the corporation's shares or an affiliate of the corporation who, at
any time within the two-year period prior to the date in question, was the
beneficial owner of 10% or more of the voting power of the then-outstanding
voting stock of the corporation (an "Interested Stockholder") or an affiliate
of such an Interested Stockholder are prohibited for five years after the most
recent date on which the Interested Stockholder becomes an Interested
Stockholder. Thereafter, any such business combination must be recommended by
the Board of such corporation and approved by the affirmative vote of at least
(a) 80% of the votes entitled to be cast by holders of outstanding voting
shares of the corporation and (b) two-thirds of the votes entitled to be cast
by holders of outstanding voting shares of the corporation other than shares
held by the Interested Stockholder with whom the business combination is to be
effected, unless, among other conditions, the corporation's stockholders
receive a minimum price (as defined under Maryland law) for their shares and
the consideration is received in cash or in the same form as previously paid by
the Interested Stockholder for its shares. These provisions of Maryland law do
not apply, however, to business combinations that are approved or exempted by
the Board of the corporation prior to the time that the Interested Stockholder
becomes an Interested Stockholder.
 
Security Capital's Charter exempts from these provisions of Maryland law any
business combination with
SC-USREALTY and its affiliates and successors. As a result, SC-USREALTY and its
affiliates and successors may be able to enter into business combinations with
Security Capital that may not be in the best interests of its stockholders
without compliance by Security Capital with the supermajority vote requirements
and other provisions of the statute.
 
CONTROL SHARE ACQUISITIONS
 
Maryland law provides that "Control Shares" of a Maryland corporation acquired
in a "Control Share acquisition" have no voting rights except to the extent
approved by a vote of two-thirds of the votes entitled to be cast on the
matter, excluding shares of stock owned by the acquiror or by officers or
directors who are employees of the corporation. "Control Shares" are voting
shares of stock which, if aggregated with all other such shares of stock
previously acquired by the acquiror, or in respect of which the acquiror is
able to exercise or direct the exercise of voting power (except solely by
virtue of a revocable proxy), would entitle the acquiror to exercise voting
power in
 
                                       96
<PAGE>
 
electing directors within one of the following ranges of voting power: (i) one-
fifth or more but less than one-third, (ii) one-third or more but less than a
majority, or (iii) a majority of all voting power. Control Shares do not
include shares the acquiring person is then entitled to vote as a result of
having previously obtained stockholder approval. A "Control Share acquisition"
means the acquisition of Control Shares, subject to certain exceptions.
 
A person who has made or proposes to make a Control Share acquisition, upon
satisfaction of certain conditions (including an undertaking to pay expenses),
may compel the Board to call a special meeting of stockholders to be held
within 50 days of demand to consider the voting rights of the shares. If no
request for a meeting is made, the corporation may itself present the question
at any stockholders meeting.
 
If voting rights are not approved at the meeting or if the acquiring person
does not deliver an acquiring person statement as required by the statute,
then, subject to certain conditions and limitations, the corporation may redeem
any or all of the Control Shares (except those for which voting rights have
previously been approved) for fair value determined, without regard to the
absence of voting rights for the Control Shares, as of the date of the last
Control Share acquisition by the acquiror or of any meeting of stockholders at
which the voting rights of such shares are considered and not approved. If
voting rights for Control Shares are approved at a stockholders meeting and the
acquiror becomes entitled to vote a majority of the shares entitled to vote,
all other stockholders may exercise appraisal rights. The fair value of the
shares as determined for purposes of such appraisal rights may not be less than
the highest price per share paid by the acquiror in the Control Share
acquisition.
 
The Control Share acquisition statute does not apply to shares acquired in a
merger, consolidation or share exchange if the corporation is a party to the
transaction, or to acquisitions approved or exempted by the charter or bylaws
of the corporation.
 
Security Capital's Bylaws contain a provision exempting SC-USREALTY and its
affiliates and successors from the provisions of the Control Share acquisition
statute.
 
ADVANCE NOTICE OF DIRECTOR NOMINATIONS AND NEW BUSINESS
 
For nominations or other business to be properly brought before an annual
meeting of shareholders by a stockholder, the Bylaws require such shareholder
to deliver a notice to the Secretary, absent specified circumstances, not less
than 60 days nor more than 90 days prior to the first anniversary of the
preceding year's annual meeting setting forth: (i) as to each person whom the
shareholder proposes to nominate for election or reelection as a director, all
information relating to such person that is required to be disclosed in
solicitations of proxies for the election of directors, pursuant to Regulation
14A of the Exchange Act; (ii) as to any other business that the shareholder
proposes to bring before the meeting, a brief description of the business
desired to be brought before the meeting, the reasons for conducting such
business at the meeting and any material interest in such business of such
shareholder and of the beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the proposal
is made; and (iii) as to the shareholder giving notice and the beneficial
owner, if any, on whose behalf the nomination or proposal is made, (x) the name
and address of such shareholder as they appear on Security Capital's books, and
of such beneficial owner and (y) the number of Shares which are owned
beneficially and of record by such shareholder and such beneficial owner, if
any.
 
                        SHARES AVAILABLE FOR FUTURE SALE
 
At August 31, 1997, Security Capital had 1,327,740 Class A Shares issued and
outstanding, which will be convertible beginning January 1, 1998 into a total
of 66,387,000 Class B Shares. In addition, Security Capital has 139,000 Series
A Preferred Shares outstanding, convertible into a maximum of 105,896 Class A
Shares. Security Capital also has outstanding (i) approximately $715 million
principal amount of its 2014 Convertible Debentures, convertible into an
aggregate of 683,771 Class A Shares, (ii) approximately $323 million principal
amount of its 2016 Convertible Debentures, convertible into an aggregate of
279,941 Class A Shares, (iii) warrants to purchase 40,241 Class A Shares and
$30,483,000 principal amount of 2014 Convertible Debentures (convertible into
29,142 Class A Shares), and (iv) options to purchase 132,604 Class A Shares and
$45,157,000 principal amount of 2014 Convertible Debentures (convertible into
43,259 Class A Shares) reserved for issuance upon exercise of options under
Security Capital's employee benefit plans. All such Class A Shares, except
those held by affiliates, and the Class B Shares into which they may be
converted, may be sold in the public market in the future pursuant to
 
                                       97
<PAGE>
 
registration rights or available exemptions from registration. In addition,
Security Capital has issued Warrants to purchase a total of 8,928,572 Class B
Shares. To the extent such Warrants are exercised, the Class B Shares may be
sold in the public markets without limitation. No prediction can be made
regarding the effect of future sales of Class B Shares on the market prices of
Class B Shares. At its August meeting, the Board requested management of
Security Capital to study various options to retire the Convertible Debentures.
Management is currently analyzing several options including an exchange offer
for, or a redemption of, the 2014 Convertible Debentures, although no assurance
can be given that Security Capital will retire some or all of the 2014
Convertible Debentures prior to maturity.
 
All of the Class B Shares to be issued or sold by Security Capital in the
Offering, other than any Class B Shares purchased by affiliates, will be
tradeable without restriction under the Securities Act. The Class A Shares
currently issued and outstanding or reserved for issuance upon exercise of
options or warrants or conversion of debentures will be eligible for sale,
subject to the volume resale, manner of sale and notice limitations of Rule 144
of the Securities Act. In general, under Rule 144, a person (or persons whose
shares are aggregated in accordance with the Rule) who has beneficially owned
his or her shares for at least one year, including any such persons who may be
deemed "affiliates" of Security Capital (as defined in the Securities Act),
would be entitled to sell within any three-month period a number of shares that
does not exceed the greater of 1% of the then outstanding number of shares or
the average weekly trading volume of the shares during the four calendar weeks
preceding each such sale. After shares are held for two years, a person who is
not deemed an "affiliate" of Security Capital is entitled to sell such shares
under Rule 144 without regard to the volume limitations described above. Sales
of shares by affiliates will continue to be subject to the volume limitations.
As defined in Rule 144, an "affiliate" of an issuer is a person that directly
or indirectly, through the use of one or more intermediaries, controls, is
controlled by, or is under common control with, such issuer.
 
No prediction can be made as to the effect, if any, that future sales of Shares
or the availability of Shares for future sale will have on the market price
prevailing from time to time. Sales of substantial amounts of Shares (including
Shares issued upon the exercise of options or warrants or conversion of
Convertible Debentures and Series A Preferred Stock), or the perception that
such sales could occur, could adversely affect the prevailing market price of
the Shares.
 
For a description of certain restrictions on transfers of Shares by Security
Capital (and certain of its directors, officers and affiliates), see
"Underwriting."
 
                  POLICIES WITH RESPECT TO CERTAIN ACTIVITIES
 
The following is a discussion of Security Capital's policies with respect to
investments, financing, and certain other activities. These policies are
determined by the Board and may be amended or revised from time to time at the
discretion of the Board without notice to or a vote of the shareholders of
Security Capital.
 
INVESTMENT POLICIES
 
Security Capital will deploy its capital (both its corporate and third-party
managed capital) through the direct and indirect ownership of public and
private companies with highly focused business strategies which are engaged in
real estate activities. Security Capital expects to benefit as these companies
experience growth in cash flows and increases in share prices consistent with
similar direct investments that Security Capital has made since 1991, although
there can be no assurance that such growth and increases will continue. See
"Business."
 
Investments in Real Estate or in Interests in Real Estate. Security Capital
does not invest directly in real estate or in interests in real estate. All
such activities are conducted by its current direct investees (SCI, PTR,
ATLANTIC and Homestead), its indirect investees (CarrAmerica, Storage USA,
REGENCY and PACIFIC RETAIL) and through recently formed direct (Strategic Hotel
Capital Incorporated) and indirect (Parking Services International
Incorporated, Urban Growth Property Trust and City Center Retail Trust)
investees and future direct and indirect (through SC-USREALTY and SC-GR)
investees which are highly focused, value added operating companies engaged in
real estate activities (collectively, "Operating Companies"). In addition,
Security Capital manages or advises or expects to manage or advise capital
invested in focused funds which invest in securities of real estate operating
companies (SC-USREALTY Special Opportunity Investment Portfolio, SC-ERF, SC-PG
and SC-EP) (collectively "Funds"). See "Business--Operating Strategy--Security
Capital Investment Research Group." The Operating Companies have each been
focused on specific types of real estate and in certain cases are
 
                                       98
<PAGE>
 
geographically limited. See "Business--Operating Strategy--Security Capital
Strategic Group." The Operating Companies are expected to acquire additional
similar properties and where appropriate, subject to applicable REIT
qualification rules, to sell certain of their properties. Existing and future
Operating Companies may acquire additional properties in existing markets or
new markets targeted by the management of those companies. Future investments
by Security Capital in companies which are engaged in real estate activities,
however, including those described below, will not be limited to any geographic
area, product type or to a specified percentage of Security Capital's assets.
The Funds are not limited as to product type for real estate operating
companies but are limited as to concentration in any particular real estate
operating company and may be limited as to geographic area based on the
particular Fund's investment limitations contained in its organizational
documents.
 
Investments in Real Estate Mortgages. Security Capital does not invest directly
in real estate mortgages and, except as described below, its Operating
Companies have not invested substantial amounts in mortgages or similar
interests in properties. Certain Operating Companies have invested in mortgage
loans to third-party owner/developers in connection with the development of
properties that are contractually required to be sold to the Operating Company
upon completion or convertible mortgage loans to affiliates in which the
Operating Company owns a substantial economic interest, or convertible mortgage
loans where the board of the Operating Company believes that such loans are in
the best interest of the Operating Company.
 
Securities of or Interests in Persons Primarily Engaged in Real Estate
Activities and Other Issuers. Security Capital has since its founding invested,
and will continue to invest, directly or indirectly in securities of entities
engaged in real estate activities, including for the purpose of exercising
control. See "Business--Overview and Strategy and Operating Strategy." Security
Capital does not expect that its investment in securities will require it to
register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act, although
certain Funds which Security Capital advises may be registered under the
Investment Company Act.  See "Risk Factors--Certain Risks Relating to the
Investment Company Act."
 
FINANCING POLICIES
 
There are no limits on total debt, or ratio of debt to equity, or similar
restrictions, in Security Capital's Charter or Bylaws. Security Capital,
however, intends to maintain a prudent policy on indebtedness. Security
Capital's Line of Credit imposes limitations on indebtedness. See "Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations--
Liquidity and Capital Resources--Lines of Credit." Security Capital intends to
comply with such limitations. Security Capital uses its $400 million floating
rate, secured line of credit for the purpose of facilitating investments as
well as for working capital. Security Capital currently has long-term, fixed
rate, convertible subordinated indebtedness aggregating $1.1 billion which is
due between 2014 and 2016. Security Capital may issue unsecured, fixed rate
long-term debt in the future and does not intend to incur long-term floating
rate debt. Security Capital may also determine to issue securities senior to
the Class B Shares, including preferred stock and debt securities (either of
which may be convertible into Class B Shares). Security Capital's financing
policies are to replace line of credit borrowings with the proceeds of equity
offerings or unsecured long-term, fixed rate, fully amortizing debt. The
proceeds of any borrowings by Security Capital may be used to provide working
capital, to pay existing indebtedness or to finance investments in, or
expansions or development of, new business initiatives.
 
Security Capital has issued options to employees and directors to purchase
Class A Shares and intends to issue additional options under its long term
incentive plans and Outside Directors Plan. Security Capital will issue the
Warrants to the Warrant Issuance Agent on the date of the Warrant Issuance,
which will be within 30 days following the Warrant Issuance Record Date. See
"Management--Outside Directors Plan and 1995 Option Plan" and "Business--The
Merger Transactions."
 
CONFLICT OF INTEREST POLICIES
 
Other than as described in "Certain Relationships and Transactions," Security
Capital does not intend to engage in principal transactions with officers and
Directors or to engage independent Directors to provide services to Security
Capital. For a discussion of Security Capital's policies with respect to
conflicts of interest, see "Risk Factors--Conflicts of Interest."
 
POLICIES WITH RESPECT TO OTHER ACTIVITIES
 
Security Capital may make investments in addition to those previously
described. The Board has authority to reclassify unissued Shares into senior
securities, to offer Shares or other securities and, subject to certain
 
                                       99
<PAGE>
 
restrictions, to repurchase or otherwise reacquire Shares or any other
securities and may engage in such activities in the future. Security Capital
has not engaged directly in trading, underwriting or agency distribution or
sale of securities of other issuers, although its wholly owned subsidiary,
Security Capital Markets Group, has, and intends to continue to, engage in
trading, agency distribution or sales of securities of Security Capital and its
affiliates.
 
Security Capital will make annual and quarterly reports to shareholders. The
annual reports will contain audited financial statements.
 
                CERTAIN UNITED STATES FEDERAL TAX CONSIDERATIONS
                     FOR NON-U.S. HOLDERS OF CLASS B SHARES
 
The following is a summary discussion of certain U.S. federal tax consequences
of the ownership and disposition of Class B Shares by a beneficial owner of
such shares that is not a U.S. person (a "non-U.S. holder"). To the extent such
summary discusses matters of law, such summary represents the opinion of Mayer,
Brown & Platt. For purposes of this discussion, a "U.S. person" means a citizen
or resident of the United States, a corporation or partnership created or
organized in the United States or under the laws of the United States or of any
State or political subdivision of the foregoing, any estate whose income is
includible in gross income for U.S. federal income tax purposes regardless of
its source, or a "United States Trust." A United States Trust is (a) for
taxable years beginning after December 31, 1996, or if the trustee of a trust
elects to apply the following definition to an earlier taxable year, any trust
if, and only if, (i) a court within the United States is able to exercise
primary supervision over the administration of the trust and (ii) one or more
U.S. fiduciaries have the authority to control all substantial decisions of the
trust, and (b) for all other taxable years, any trust whose income is
includible in gross income for United States Federal income tax purposes
regardless of its source. This discussion does not deal with all aspects of
U.S. federal income and estate taxation that may be relevant to non-U.S.
holders in light of their particular circumstances, and does not address state,
local or non-U.S. tax considerations. Furthermore, the following discussion is
based on provisions of the Code, Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder
and administrative and judicial interpretations as of the date hereof, all of
which are subject to change, possibly with retroactive effect. Treasury
Regulations were recently proposed that would, if adopted in their present
form, revise in certain respects the rules applicable to non-U.S. holders of
Class B Shares (the "Proposed Regulations"). The Proposed Regulations are
generally proposed to be effective with respect to payments made after December
31, 1997. It is not certain whether, or in what form, the Proposed Regulations
will be adopted as final regulations. Each prospective investor is urged to
consult its own tax adviser with respect to the particular U.S. federal, state
and local consequences to it of owning and disposing of Class B Shares, as well
as any tax consequences arising under the laws of any other taxing
jurisdiction.
 
U.S. INCOME AND ESTATE TAX CONSEQUENCES
 
Although Security Capital does not currently intend to pay dividends on either
its Class A Shares or Class B Shares, dividends paid to a non-U.S. holder are
subject to U.S. withholding tax at a rate of 30% of the gross amount of the
dividend or, if applicable, a lower treaty rate, unless the dividend is
effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business in the United
States by a non-U.S. holder (and, if certain tax treaties apply, is
attributable to a United States permanent establishment maintained by such non-
U.S. holder) and a Form 4224 stating that the dividends are so connected is
filed with Security Capital. A dividend that is effectively connected with the
conduct of a trade or business in the United States by a non-U.S. holder (and,
if certain tax treaties apply, is attributable to a United States permanent
establishment maintained by such non-U.S. holder) will be exempt from the
withholding tax described above and subject instead (i) to the U.S. federal
income tax on net income that applies to U.S. persons and (ii) with respect to
corporate holders under certain circumstances, a 30% (or, if applicable, lower
treaty rate) branch profits tax that in general is imposed on its "effectively
connected earnings and profits" (within the meaning of the Code) for the
taxable year, as adjusted for certain items.
 
Under current Treasury Regulations, dividends paid to an address in a foreign
country are presumed to be paid to a resident of that country (unless the payor
has knowledge to the contrary) for purposes of the withholding discussed above
and, under the current interpretation of the Treasury Regulations, for purposes
of determining the applicability of a tax treaty rate. Under the Proposed
Regulations, however, a non-U.S. holder of Class B Shares who wishes to claim
the benefit of an applicable treaty rate would be required to satisfy
applicable certification and
 
                                      100
<PAGE>
 
other requirements. In the case of a foreign partnership, the certification
requirement would generally be applied to the partners of the partnership. In
addition, the Proposed Regulations would also require the partnership to
provide certain information, including a United States taxpayer identification
number, and would provide look-through rules for tiered partnerships. A non-
U.S. holder that is eligible for a reduced rate of U.S. withholding tax
pursuant to an income tax treaty may obtain a refund of any excess amount
withheld by filing an appropriate claim for refund with the IRS.
 
Under current law, a non-U.S. holder generally will not be subject to U.S.
federal income tax on any gain recognized on a sale or other disposition of a
Class B Share unless (i) subject to the exception discussed in the paragraph
below Security Capital is or has been at any time within the shorter of the
five-year period preceding such disposition or such holder's holding period a
"United States real property holding corporation" for U.S. federal income tax
purposes, (ii) the gain is effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or
business within the United States of the non-U.S. holder (and, if certain tax
treaties apply, is attributable to a United States permanent establishment
maintained by the non-U.S. holder), (iii) the gain is not described in clause
(ii) above, the non-U.S. holder is an individual who holds the share as a
capital asset, is present in the United States for 183 days or more in the
taxable year of the disposition and the gain is attributable to an office or
other fixed place of business maintained in the United States by such
individual, or (iv) the non-U.S. holder is subject to tax pursuant to the Code
provisions applicable to certain U.S. expatriates. In the case of a non-U.S.
holder that is described under clause (ii) above, its gain will be subject to
the U.S. federal income tax on net income that applies to U.S. persons and, in
addition, if such non-U.S. holder is a foreign corporation, it may be subject
to the branch profits tax as described in the second preceding paragraph. An
individual non-U.S. holder that is described under clause (iii) above will be
subject to a flat 30% tax on the gain derived from the sale, which may be
offset by capital losses which are treated as U.S. source (notwithstanding the
fact that he or she is not considered a resident of the United States).
 
In the opinion of Mayer, Brown & Platt, based on certain representations of
Security Capital, Security Capital was not, as of the date of this Prospectus,
a "United States real property holding corporation." However, such opinion is
not binding on the IRS nor will it preclude the IRS from adopting a contrary
position, and since no ruling from the IRS will be sought, there can be no
complete assurance that the IRS will agree with the conclusions set forth
herein. Moreover, such opinion is based on certain factual matters as of the
date of this Prospectus, which may change, such as the relative fair market
value of Security Capital's assets and investments made by Security Capital as
of the date of this Prospectus. In general, if Security Capital were treated as
or were to become a "United States real property holding corporation" under the
Foreign Investment in Real Property Tax Act ("FIRPTA"), a non-U.S. holder of
Class B Shares deemed to own more than 5% of the Class B Shares would be
subject to United States federal income tax on a sale or other disposition of
such Class B Shares, and a non-U.S. holder that is not deemed to own more than
5% of the Class B Shares would not be subject to United States federal income
tax on gain on a sale or other disposition of such shares provided that such
shares are "regularly traded on an established securities market" (within the
meaning of Section 897(c)(3) of the Code and the temporary regulations issued
pursuant thereto). Additionally if the Class B Shares are not "regularly traded
on an established securities market" a non-U.S. holder of such shares would be
subject to a United States withholding tax equal to 10% of the amount realized
on a disposition of such shares. There is no assurance that Security Capital is
not currently or will not become a "United States real property holding
corporation."
 
Class B Shares owned or treated as owned by an individual who is not a citizen
or resident (as specially defined for United States federal income tax
purposes) of the United States at the date of death, or Class B Shares subject
to certain lifetime transfers made by such an individual, will be included in
such individual's estate for United States federal estate tax, unless an
applicable estate tax treaty provides otherwise.
 
BACKUP WITHHOLDING AND INFORMATION REPORTING
 
Dividends
Except as provided below, Security Capital must report annually to the IRS and
to each non-U.S. holder the amount of dividends paid to and the tax withheld
with respect to such holder. These information reporting requirements apply
regardless of whether withholding was reduced or eliminated by an applicable
tax treaty. Copies of these information returns may also be available under the
provisions of a specific treaty or agreement with the tax authorities in the
country in which the non-U.S. holder resides. In general, backup withholding at
a rate of 31% and
 
                                      101
<PAGE>
 
additional information reporting will apply to dividends paid on Class B Shares
to holders that are not "exempt recipients" and that fail to provide in the
manner required certain identifying information (such as the holder's name,
address and taxpayer identification number). Generally, individuals are not
exempt recipients, whereas corporations and certain other entities generally
are exempt recipients. However, dividends that are subject to U.S. withholding
tax at the 30% statutory rate or at a reduced tax treaty rate are exempt from
backup withholding of U.S. federal income tax and such additional information
reporting.
 
Broker Sales
If a non-U.S. holder sells Class B Shares through a U.S. office of a U.S. or
foreign broker, the broker is required to file an information return and is
required to withhold 31% of the sale proceeds unless the non-U.S. holder is an
exempt recipient or has provided the broker with the information and
statements, under penalties of perjury, necessary to establish an exemption
from backup withholding. If payment of the proceeds of the sale of a share by a
non-U.S. holder is made to or through the foreign office of a broker, that
broker will not be required to backup withhold or, except as provided in the
next sentence, to file information returns. In the case of proceeds from a sale
of a share by a non-U.S. holder paid to or through the foreign office of a U.S.
broker or a foreign office of a foreign broker that is (i) a controlled foreign
corporation for U.S. tax purposes or (ii) a person 50% or more of whose gross
income for the three-year period ending with the close of the taxable year
preceding the year of payment (or for the part of that period that the broker
has been in existence) is effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or
business within the United States (a "Foreign U.S. Connected Broker"),
information reporting is required unless the broker has documentary evidence in
its files that the payee is not a U.S. person and certain other conditions are
met, or the payee otherwise establishes an exemption. In addition, the Treasury
Department has indicated that it is studying the possible application of backup
withholding in the case of such foreign offices of U.S. and Foreign U.S.
Connected Brokers.
 
The Proposed Regulations would, if adopted, alter the foregoing rules in
certain respects. Among other things, the Proposed Regulations would provide
certain presumptions under which a non-U.S. holder would be subject to backup
withholding and information reporting unless Security Capital receives
certification from the holder of its non-U.S. status.
 
Refunds
Any amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules from a payment to a
non-U.S. holder may be refunded or credited against the non-U.S. holder's U.S.
federal income tax liability, provided that the required information is
furnished to the IRS.

                                 ERISA MATTERS
 
The fiduciary requirements of Title I of the Employee Retirement Income
Security Act of 1974, as amended ("ERISA"), require the investments of a
pension, profit sharing or other employee benefit plan subject to ERISA (an
"ERISA Plan") to be (i) prudent and in the best interests of the ERISA Plan,
its participants and beneficiaries; (ii) diversified in order to reduce the
risk of large losses, unless it is clearly prudent not to do so; and (iii)
authorized under the terms of the governing documents of the ERISA Plan. Each
fiduciary of an ERISA Plan should carefully consider whether an investment in
the Class B Shares is consistent with his or her fiduciary duties.
 
A fiduciary making the decision to invest in the Class B Shares on behalf of an
ERISA Plan, a governmental plan, an Individual Retirement Account or certain
non-ERISA plans (a "Plan") is advised to consult his or her own legal advisor
regarding the specific considerations arising under ERISA, the Code or state
law with respect to the purchase, ownership or sale of Class B Shares by such
Plan.
 
A regulation promulgated by the Department of Labor (the "DOL Regulation")
provides that, except under certain circumstances set forth therein, investment
by a Plan in a corporation, partnership or other entity may result in the
assets of that entity being treated as the assets of the investing Plan.
 
An investment in an "operating company" is one circumstance in which the
entity's assets will not be deemed to be "plan assets." The DOL Regulation
includes in the definition of "operating company" a "venture capital operating
company" ("VCOC"). A VCOC is an entity which, as of its "initial valuation
date" and annually on its "annual valuation date" (as defined by the DOL
Regulation), has at least 50% of its assets (other than short-term assets
pending long-term investment or distribution), valued at cost, invested in
venture capital investments or derivative instruments and which actually
exercises, in the ordinary course of its business, management rights in one or
more of the operating companies in which it invests. The Company has received
opinions from Mayer, Brown and Platt that it is a VCOC as of its most recent
valuation date and, assuming that at the relevant future valuation dates
(including after giving effect to the Mergers) its investments in qualifying
venture capital investments constitute at least 50% of its assets valued at
cost, and that it continues to exercise its management rights in at least one
of the operating companies in which it invests, it will qualify as a VCOC and
its assets will not be deemed "plan assets" under the DOL Regulation.
 
The DOL Regulation also provides that an entity's assets will not be treated as
"plan assets" because of an ERISA Plan's investment if the Plan acquires a
"publicly offered security" which is an equity interest in the entity. The DOL
Regulation defines a publicly offered security as a security that is freely
transferable, part of a class of securities that is widely held and either (i)
part of a class of securities registered under Section 12(b) or 12(g) of the
Exchange Act or (ii) sold pursuant to an effective registration statement under
the Securities Act (provided that the securities are registered under the
Exchange Act within 120 days after the end of the fiscal year of the issuer
during which the offering occurred). The Class B Shares are expected to be
registered under Section 12(b) of the Exchange Act upon completion of the
Offering and, prior to the completion of the Offering, the Class A Shares will
be registered under Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act.
 
A security is "widely held" if it is part of a class of securities owned by 100
or more investors independent of the issuer and of one another. The Company
believes that the Class A Shares are widely held and expects the Class B Shares
to be widely held upon completion of the Offering.
 
Whether a security is "freely transferable" is a factual question to be
determined on the basis of all relevant facts and circumstances. The DOL
Regulation creates certain safe harbors for securities with a minimum
investment of $10,000 or less, which safe harbor is not available for Class B
Shares offered hereby. Nevertheless, the Company believes that any restrictions
on the transfer of Class A Shares or Class B Shares are limited to the type of
restrictions permitted by the DOL Regulation. The DOL Regulation only
establishes a presumption in favor of free transferability, and no assurance
can be given that the Department of Labor or the U.S. Treasury Department will
not reach a contrary conclusion.
 
Assuming that the Class A Shares and Class B Shares will be "widely held" and
that no facts and circumstances other than those referred to in the preceding
paragraph exist that restrict transferability, the Company believes that, while
the issue is not entirely free from doubt because of its factual nature, the
Class A Shares and Class B Shares
 
                                      103
<PAGE>
 
will be publicly offered securities and the assets of the Company will not be
deemed to be "plan assets" of any Plan which invests in Class B Shares.
 
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the assets of the Company were deemed to be
"plan assets" under ERISA, the Company's ability to engage in business
transactions could be hampered because: (i) certain persons exercising
discretion as to the Company's assets might be considered to be fiduciaries
under ERISA; (ii) transactions involving the Company undertaken at their
direction or pursuant to their advice might violate ERISA; and (iii) certain
transactions that the Company might enter into in the ordinary course of its
business might constitute "prohibited transactions" under ERISA and the Code.

</TABLE>
 
The Underwriters propose initially to offer the Class B Shares directly to the
public at the price set forth on the cover page of this Prospectus and to
certain dealers at such price less a concession not in excess of $1.10 per
Class B Share. The Underwriters may allow, and such dealers may reallow, a
concession not in excess of $0.10 per Class B Share to certain other dealers.
After the initial public offering of the Class B Shares, the public offering
price and such concession may be changed.
 
The Underwriters have exercised an over-allotment option granted to them by
Security Capital to purchase an additional 2,835,000 Class B Shares at the
initial public offering price, less underwriting discount.
 
SC-USREALTY has expressed an interest in purchasing 1,964,286 Class B Shares in
the Offering at a per share purchase price of $28.00, which is the initial
public offering price, and an unaffiliated institutional investor has expressed
an interest in purchasing 3,819,709 Class B Shares in the Offering at a per
share purchase price of $26.18, which is the initial public offering price less
underwriting discount. The Underwriters have agreed to waive underwriting
discount aggregating $10,526,871 with respect to an aggregate of 5,783,995
Class B Shares which may be sold to such parties. The number of Class B Shares
available for sale to the general public in the Offering will be reduced to the
extent such parties purchase any such shares. Any Class B Shares not so
purchased will be offered by the Underwriters to the general public on the same
basis as the other Class B Shares offered hereby. In the event the unaffiliated
institutional investor purchases Class B Shares in the Offering, Security
Capital will waive the Ownership Limit with respect to the number, but not the
value, of the issued and outstanding Shares owned by such investor, and such
investor will not sell, transfer, pledge, assign, hypothecate or otherwise
dispose of any of the Class B Shares it elects to purchase in the Offering and
subsequent thereto until 210 days after the closing of the Offering without the
consent of Security Capital. In addition, if the unaffiliated institutional
investor purchases Class B Shares in the Offering, Security Capital will make
Security Capital Markets Group available to assist such
 
                                      105
<PAGE>
 
investor in the event it elects to sell any such Class B Shares subsequently
and, if such investor were to become an affiliate of Security Capital
subsequently, Security Capital will register for resale any Class B Shares
acquired by such investor both in the Offering and subsequent thereto.
 
The Representatives have informed Security Capital that they do not expect
sales to accounts over which the Underwriters exercise discretionary authority
to exceed five percent of the total number of Class B Shares offered by them.
 
In connection with the Offering, the Underwriters may engage in transactions
that stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the price of the Class B Shares or
the Class A Shares. Specifically, the Underwriters may overallot the offering,
creating a syndicate short position. In addition, the Underwriters may bid for,
and purchase, Class B Shares or Class A Shares in the open market to cover
syndicate shorts or to stabilize the price of the Class B Shares or the Class A
Shares. Finally, the underwriting syndicate may reclaim selling concessions
allowed for distributing the Class B Shares in the Offering, if the syndicate
repurchases previously distributed Class B Shares in syndicate covering
transactions, in stabilization transactions or otherwise. Any of these
activities may stabilize or maintain the market price of the Class B Shares or
the Class A Shares above independent market levels. The Underwriters are not
required to engage in these activities, and may end any of these activities at
any time.
 
The Class B Shares have been approved for listing on the NYSE under the symbol
"SCZ.B", subject to official notice of issuance. In order to meet one of the
requirements for listing the Class B Shares on the NYSE, the Underwriters have
undertaken to sell lots of 100 or more Class B Shares to a minimum of 2,000
beneficial holders.
 
Security Capital, and certain of its directors, executive officers and
affiliates have agreed that, without the prior written consent of J.P. Morgan
Securities Inc., they will not (i) offer, pledge, announce the intention to
sell, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase
any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrants to
purchase, or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any
Shares or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for
Shares (including, without limitation, Shares which may be deemed to be
beneficially owned in accordance with the rules and regulations of the
Commission and securities which may be issued upon exercise of a stock option
or warrant) or (ii) enter into any swap or other agreement that transfers, in
whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of the Shares,
whether any such transaction described in clause (i) and (ii) above is to be
settled by delivery of the Shares or such other securities, in cash or
otherwise, for a period of 180 days after the date of this Prospectus, other
than (1) pursuant to employee or director stock option plans, (2) the
conversion or exchange of convertible or exchangeable securities outstanding on
the date of this Prospectus, (3) the exercise of options or warrants to
purchase securities (including by means of a "cashless exercise"), (4) the
issuance of up to $250 million of Warrants pursuant to the terms of the Merger
Agreements and the issuance of Class B Shares upon exercise thereof, (5) the
sale to the Underwriters of Class B Shares under the Underwriting Agreement and
(6) the issuance of Class A Shares pursuant to the Company's Convertible
Debenture interest reinvestment plans as in effect on the date hereof.
 
Commerzbank Aktiengesellschaft, Grand Cayman Branch, owns all of Security
Capital's outstanding Series A Preferred Stock. Commerzbank Aktiengesellschaft,
Grand Cayman Branch, is affiliated with Commerzbank Capital Markets
Corporation, a member of the NASD, which will participate in the distribution
of the Offering. Commerzbank Capital Markets Corporation is in a conflict of
interest with Security Capital under the rules of the NASD. The Offering is
being conducted in accordance with NASD Rule 2720, which provides that, among
other things, when an NASD member is in a conflict of interest with an issuer,
the initial public offering price can be no higher than that recommended by a
"qualified independent underwriter" meeting certain standards. J.P. Morgan
Securities Inc. is assuming the responsibilities of acting as "qualified
independent underwriter" within the meaning of such rules in pricing the
Offering and conducting due diligence. J.P. Morgan Securities Inc. will receive
no separate fee for its services as qualified independent underwriter. In
addition, NASD members may not execute transactions in Class B Shares offered
hereby in the U.S. to any accounts over which they exercise discretionary
authority without the prior written approval of the customer, in accordance
with NASD Rule 2720.
 
Prior to the offering, there has been no public market for the Class B Shares,
although there has been a private market for the Class A Shares. The initial
offering price will be determined by agreement among Security Capital
 
                                      106

and the Underwriters and will be based on a methodology which takes into
account Security Capital's value components and assumes the exercise and
conversion and the related receipt of proceeds therefrom of all outstanding
Convertible Debentures, Series A Preferred Stock and options and warrants to
purchase Class A Shares and Convertible Debentures. These value components
include (i) the market value of Security Capital's securities holdings in
public operating companies ("Public Company Equity Value"), (ii) the fair value
of its securities holdings in private/start-up companies ("Private/Start-up
Company Equity Value"), (iii) the value of the Services Division based on its
future income generating capability ("Services Division") and (iv) estimates of
the business potential and prospects for future value creation from new
businesses that are in research and development ("R&D"). In addition, Security
Capital and the Underwriters will take into account other factors including an
assessment of Security Capital's management, the current state of Security
Capital's industry and the economy as a whole, and the general conditions of
the securities market at the time of the Offering.
 
At September 12, 1997 the market value of Security Capital's holdings in its
public operating companies was as outlined below:

million of common stock of SC-PG.
 
In addition to the outstanding Convertible Debentures, Security Capital had

At August 31, 1997 on a fully converted basis, Security Capital had 2,642,594

August 31, 1997 would be $205.8 million. See "Capitalization."
 
Security Capital has sold Class A Shares in six private placements to
institutional investors using the foregoing methodology. The most recent
private placement occurred in March 1996 at a price of $1,049 per Class A
Share, which is the equivalent of $20.98 per Class B Share.

At the request of the Company, the Underwriters have reserved up to 1,132,500
Class B Shares for sale at the initial public offering price to directors,
officers, and employees of the Company and its affiliates. The number of Class
B Shares available to the general public will be reduced to the extent such
persons purchase the reserved Class B Shares. Any reserved Class B Shares that
are not so purchased by such persons at the closing of the Offering will be
offered by the Underwriters to the general public on the same terms as the
other Class B Shares offered by this Prospectus.
 
Security Capital has agreed to indemnify the Underwriters against certain
liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act and Security
Capital has agreed to indemnify J.P. Morgan Securities Inc. for actions in its
capacity as qualified independent underwriter.
 
From time to time in the ordinary course of their respective businesses, J.P.
Morgan Securities Inc., Goldman, Sachs & Co. and Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner

the future provide investment banking, commercial banking and other financial
services to Security Capital and its affiliates. In addition, each of (i)
Security Capital and (ii) Whitehall Street Real Estate Limited Partnership VII
(together with certain other affiliates of Goldman, Sachs & Co.) have committed
to invest $300 million of capital on an equal basis in SHC. In addition, J.P.
Morgan Securities Inc. and Goldman, Sachs & Co. acted as financial advisors to
ATLANTIC and SCI, respectively, in connection with the Mergers for which they
have received $250,000 and $250,000, respectively.

The consolidated financial statements and related schedules of Security Capital
and SCI included in this Prospectus and elsewhere in the registration statement
of which this Prospectus forms a part, have been audited by Arthur Andersen
LLP, independent public accountants to the extent indicated in their reports
thereon also appearing elsewhere herein and in the registration statement. Such
financial statements have been included herein in reliance upon such reports
given upon the authority of such firm as experts in accounting and auditing.
 
The financial statements and related schedule of PTR included in this
Prospectus and elsewhere in the registration statement, of which this
Prospectus forms a part, have been audited by KPMG Peat Marwick LLP,
independent public accountants to the extent indicated in their report thereon
also appearing elsewhere herein and in the registration statement. Such
financial statements have been included herein in reliance upon such reports
given upon the authority of such firm as experts in accounting and auditing.
 
The financial statements and related schedules of ATLANTIC and Homestead
consolidated into the financial statements of Security Capital, have been
audited by Ernst & Young LLP, independent public accountants to the extent
indicated in their reports thereon appearing elsewhere herein and in the
registration statement. Such financial statements have been consolidated in
reliance upon such reports given upon the authority of such firm as experts in

With respect to the unaudited condensed interim financial statements for the
three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 1997 and 1996, included in this
Prospectus, Arthur Andersen LLP and KPMG Peat Marwick LLP have reported that
they have applied limited procedures in accordance with professional standards
for a review of such information. However, their separate reports state that
they did not audit and they do not express an opinion on that interim financial
information. Accordingly, the degree of reliance on their reports on such
information should be restricted considering the limited nature of the review
procedures applied. Neither of such accountants is subject to the liability
provisions of Section 11 of the Securities Act for their reports on the
unaudited interim financial information because neither of those reports is a
"report" or a "part" of the Registration Statement prepared or certified by the
accountants within the meaning of Sections 7 and 11 of the Securities Act.
 
The financial statements and related schedules of SC-USREALTY included in this

                    REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
 
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of Security Capital Group
Incorporated:
 
We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Security
Capital Group Incorporated and subsidiaries (see note 1) as of June 30, 1997,
and the related consolidated statements of operations for the three- and six-
month periods ended June 30, 1997 and 1996, the statement of shareholders'
equity for the six-month period ended June 30, 1997 and the statements of cash
flows for the six-month periods ended June 30, 1997 and 1996. These financial
statements are the responsibility of Management. We were furnished with the
reports of other accountants on their reviews of the financial statements of
Security Capital Pacific Trust, Security Capital Atlantic Incorporated and
Homestead Village Incorporated, whose total assets represent 61.7% of the total
assets of Security Capital Group Incorporated and subsidiaries as of June 30,
1997 and whose income represent 55.4% and 57.4% of the total income in the
consolidated statements of operations of Security Capital Group Incorporated
and subsidiaries for the six-month periods ended June 30, 1997 and 1996,
respectively.
 
We conducted our review in accordance with standards established by the
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A review of interim
financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures to
financial data and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and
accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted
in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, the objective of
which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken
as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.
 
Based on our review and the reports of other accountants, we are not aware of
any material modifications that should be made to the financial statements
referred to above for them to be in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.
 
We have previously audited, in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards, the consolidated balance sheet of Security Capital Group
Incorporated and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1996, and, in our report dated
February 28, 1997, we expressed an unqualified opinion on that statement based
on our audit and reports of other auditors. In our opinion, the information set
forth in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 1996,
is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the balance sheet
from which it has been derived.

                                 JUNE 30, 1997
                                  (UNAUDITED)
 
(1) GENERAL
 
Security Capital Group Incorporated (Security Capital) engages in real estate
research, investment and management. Its strategy is to create the optimal
organization to lead and profit from global real estate securitization.
Security Capital has invested in various operating and other entities (the
Capital Division) (see note 3) and provides various management and financial
services through a Services Division (see note 2). The Capital Division invests
in real estate-related companies with the objective of generating capital gains
and growing dividends. The Services Division provides strategic guidance,
research, investment analysis, acquisition and development services, asset
management, property management, capital markets services and legal and
accounting services for the companies in which Security Capital and its
affiliates have invested. Security Capital is a Maryland corporation.
 
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the results of
Security Capital, its majority-owned Capital Division subsidiaries (Security
Capital Atlantic Incorporated, Homestead Village Incorporated, and Security
Capital Employee REIT Fund Incorporated) and its wholly-owned Services Division
subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been
eliminated in consolidation. Minority interest is comprised of the minority
shareholders of Security Capital Atlantic Incorporated, Homestead Village
Incorporated, and Security Capital Employee REIT Fund Incorporated. Security
Capital accounts for its 20% or greater (but not more than 50%) owned investees
by the equity method. For an investee accounted for under the equity method,
Security Capital's share of net earnings or losses of the investee is reflected
in income as earned and dividends are credited against the investment as
received.
 
The consolidated financial statements of Security Capital as of June 30, 1997
are unaudited and, pursuant to the rules of the Securities and Exchange
Commission (SEC), certain information and footnote disclosures normally
included in financial statements have been omitted. While management of
Security Capital believes that the disclosures presented are adequate, these
interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with
Security Capital's 1996 consolidated financial statements.
 
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited financial statements
contain all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments,
necessary for a fair presentation of Security Capital's consolidated financial
statements for the interim periods presented. Certain reclassifications have
been made in the 1996 consolidated financial statements and notes to
consolidated financial statements for the interim periods presented in order to
conform to the 1997 presentation. The results of operations for the three- and
six-month periods ended June 30, 1997 and 1996 are not necessarily indicative
of the results to be expected for the entire year.
 
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 assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
(2) SERVICES DIVISION
 
REIT Managers and Property Managers
Certain Security Capital Services Division subsidiaries, under the terms of
separate agreements, manage the operations of the separate REITs (REIT
Managers) and provide property management services to those REITs (Property
Managers). Each REIT Manager is paid a REIT management fee based on a
percentage of the REIT's pre-management fee cash flow, after deducting actual
and assumed regularly scheduled principal payments for long-term debt and
dividends paid on non-convertible preferred shares, as defined in the REIT
Management Agreements. The fee is generally 16% of cash flow, as so defined, of
the REIT. Property management fees are at market rates and are paid separately
to Security Capital's property management subsidiaries. The REIT and Property
Management Agreements are generally one year in term, renewable annually by the
REIT and cancelable upon sixty days notice.

             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
 
 
In late January 1997, Security Capital made a proposal to Security Capital
Industrial Trust (SCI), Security Capital Pacific Trust (PTR) and Security
Capital Atlantic Incorporated (ATLANTIC) to exchange the REIT and Property
Managers for additional shares of the respective REITs. As a result of the
proposed transactions, each of the REITs would become internally managed. The
board of directors or trustees of each REIT appointed a special committee
comprised of independent directors or trustees to review the proposed
transaction.
 
On March 24, 1997, the board of trustees or directors of SCI, PTR, and ATLANTIC
each unanimously approved an agreement with Security Capital to exchange its
REIT common stock for Security Capital's REIT management and property
management companies (the mergers). The transactions, subject to approval by
the shareholders of Security Capital, SCI, PTR, and ATLANTIC, are expected to
be consummated during the third quarter of 1997. Shareholders of Security
Capital approved the transactions in the second quarter of 1997. Under the
terms of the agreement, SCI, PTR, and ATLANTIC will issue $81,870,626
(3,692,023 shares), $75,838,457 (3,295,533 shares) and $54,608,549 (2,306,591
shares) of their common stock, respectively, in exchange for Security Capital's
REIT management and property management companies and operating systems.
 
In order to allow existing common shareholders to maintain (and, to the extent
a shareholder oversubscribes for common shares pursuant to the oversubscription
privilege, increase) their relative ownership interests, SCI, PTR and ATLANTIC
commenced rights offerings on August 8, 1997 to their respective shareholders
and Security Capital agreed not to exercise or sell its rights in such
offerings. Also, as part of the transactions, Security Capital will issue
registered warrants to acquire $250 million of Class B shares to the common and
convertible preferred shareholders and unitholders of limited partnerships of
SCI, PTR and ATLANTIC. The warrants are expected to be publicly traded and have
a term of twelve months.
 
On April 29, 1997 Security Capital filed a registration statement with the SEC
covering its initial public offering of Class B shares, which is expected to be
effective in the third quarter of 1997.
 
In connection with the proposed exchange of the REIT and Property Managers for
additional shares of the respective REITs and the issuance of warrants to
purchase Class B shares as described above, Security Capital filed three
registration statements with the SEC (one for each of the merger transactions).
Each of these registration statements was declared effective by the SEC on
August 5, 1997.
 
Operating Advisor
Another Services Division subsidiary domiciled in Luxembourg (Operating
Advisor) advises on all investment and operational activities of Security
Capital U.S. Realty, a Luxembourg corporation (USREALTY). The Operating Advisor
is paid a management fee of 1.25% of USREALTY's investments at fair value
(other than liquid short-term investments and investments in Security Capital).

(4) INDEBTEDNESS
 
Lines of Credit:
At June 30, 1997, Security Capital, ATLANTIC and Homestead had revolving bank
lines of credit. Security Capital has a $400,000,000 revolving line of credit
with Wells Fargo Realty Advisors, Incorporated (Wells Fargo) as agent for a
group of lenders. The line of credit was increased from $300,000,000 to
$400,00,000 on July 22, 1997. The agreement is effective through November 15,
1998 with an option to renew for successive one year periods, with the approval
of Wells Fargo and the participating lenders. Borrowings bear interest, at
Security Capital's option, at either LIBOR plus 1.50% or a base rate (defined
as the higher of Wells Fargo prime rate or the Federal Funds Rate plus .50%)
with interest payable monthly in arrears. Commitment fees range from 0.125% to
0.25% per annum based on the average unfunded line of credit balance. Security
Capital's line is secured by its holdings in SCI, PTR, ATLANTIC, SC-USREALTY
and Homestead, including warrants to purchase shares of Homestead's common
stock, as well as any unfunded subscriptions for Security Capital's common
stock and convertible subordinated debentures. There were no unfunded
subscriptions as of June 30, 1997.
 
The Security Capital line of credit is a primary obligation of SC Realty.
Security Capital guarantees the line. SC Realty is a legal entity which is
separate and distinct from Security Capital and its affiliates, and has
separate assets, liabilities, business functions and operations. The
outstanding balance on Security Capital's line of credit at June 30, 1997 was
$107,500,000.
 
On December 18, 1996, ATLANTIC obtained a $350,000,000 unsecured line of credit
from Morgan Guaranty Trust Company of New York (Morgan Guaranty), as agent for
a group of lenders. Borrowings bear interest at prime, or at ATLANTIC's option,
LIBOR plus a margin (1.375% through July 2, 1997 and 1.125% thereafter).
ATLANTIC currently pays a commitment fee on the average unfunded line of credit
balance ranging from 0.125% to 0.25% per annum, depending on the amount of
undrawn commitments. The line of credit matures December 1998 and may be
extended for one year with the approval of Morgan Guaranty and the other
participating lenders. The outstanding balance on ATLANTIC's line of credit at
June 30, 1997 was $278,750,000.
 
On June 30, 1997, ATLANTIC entered into a $25,000,000 short-term, unsecured
borrowing agreement with Texas Commerce Bank National Association. The loan
matures on June 30, 1998 and bears interest at an overnight rate. There were no
borrowings outstanding under this agreement at June 30, 1997.
 
On May 6, 1997 Homestead entered into a secured revolving line of credit
facility with Commerzbank AG, New York Branch (Commerzbank), which provides for
borrowings of up to $50,000,000, subject to collateral requirements. Borrowings
bear interest at the Eurodollar rate plus 2.5% per annum. Additionally, there
is a commitment fee of 0.325% per annum on the average unfunded line of credit
balance. The line of credit matures May 1998 and may be extended with the
approval of the lenders. There was no outstanding balance on the line of credit
as of June 30, 1997.
 
Each line requires maintenance of certain financial covenants. Security
Capital, SC Realty, ATLANTIC and Homestead were in compliance with all such
covenants at June 30, 1997.

- --------
(a) Real estate with an aggregate undepreciated cost at June 30, 1997 of
$51,259,000 and $204,518,000 serves as collateral for the conventional mortgage
notes payable and the tax exempt mortgages, respectively.
(b) In connection with the October 1996 Homestead spin-out transaction,
Homestead executed a funding commitment agreement with PTR which provides
borrowing capability in the amount of $199,000,000. Under this funding
agreement, Homestead may call for funding from PTR through March 31, 1998 for
the development of the projects acquired from PTR in the transaction. As a
result of the fundings, PTR will receive convertible mortgage notes in stated
amounts of up to $221,000,000. The notes are collaterized by Homestead
properties.
 
PTR's convertible mortgage notes are convertible into Homestead common stock
after March 31, 1997 on the basis of one share of Homestead common stock for
every $11.50 of principal amount outstanding. None of the mortgage notes were
converted as of June 30, 1997.
 
Convertible Debt:
Security Capital's convertible subordinated debentures due June 30, 2014 (the
2014 Convertible Debentures) totaling $715,244,000 at June 30, 1997 and
$713,677,000 at December 31, 1996 accrue interest at 12% per annum but require
semi-annual cash interest payments at a minimum rate per annum of 3.5%.
Interest above the minimum may be paid currently or deferred at the option of
Security Capital. Any deferred interest accrues interest at 12% and is due upon
maturity. The Board of Directors of Security Capital approved a cash interest
payment rate of 10.535% and 9.939% per annum for 1997 and 1996, respectively.
 
Security Capital's convertible subordinated debentures due March 29, 2016 (the
2016 Convertible Debentures) totaling $323,024,000 at June 30, 1997 and
$226,520,000 at December 31, 1996 accrue interest at 6.5% per annum and require
semi-annual interest payments on the last business day of June and December.
 
The principal amount of the 2014 and 2016 Convertible Debentures are
convertible into Security Capital common stock at $1,046.00 and $1,153.90 per
share, respectively, at the option of the holder any time after the earlier to
occur of (i) the first anniversary of Security Capital's initial public
offering of its common stock, (ii) July 1, 1999 and March 29, 2001 for the 2014
and 2016 Convertible Debentures, respectively, (iii) the consolidation or
merger of Security Capital with another entity (other than a merger in which
Security Capital is the surviving entity) or any sale or disposition of
substantially all the assets of Security Capital or (iv) notice of redemption
of the debentures by Security Capital. On conversion of the 2014 Convertible
Debentures, any accrued and unpaid deferred interest shall be deemed to be paid
in full upon delivery of the common shares to the debenture holder. Security
Capital may redeem the 2014 Convertible Debentures at any time and the 2016
Convertible Debentures may be redeemed at any time after March 29, 1999. To
redeem the debentures, Security Capital must provide not less than 60 days nor
more than 90 days prior written notice to the holders. The redemption price is
par plus any accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date.

             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
 
 
Interest:
Security Capital capitalizes interest as part of the cost of real estate
projects under development. During the six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996,
the total interest paid on all outstanding debt was $59,663,000 and
$49,377,000, respectively, including $13,310,000 and $4,585,000, respectively,
which was capitalized. Costs incurred in connection with the issuance or
renewal of debt are capitalized, included with other assets and amortized over
the term of the related loan in the case of issuance costs or twelve months in
the case of renewal costs. Amortization of deferred financing costs included in
interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996 was $1,464,000
and $1,328,000, respectively.
 
(5) SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY
 
On April 17, 1997 Security Capital shareholders approved an amended and
restated charter which created Class A and Class B Shares. All outstanding
common stock as of April 18, 1997 was automatically changed to Class A Shares.
All references to Security Capital common stock are to Class A Shares unless
otherwise noted (See note 2 regarding registration statements filed with the
SEC).
 
Included in general, administrative and other expenses is a $6.6 million non-
cash, nonrecurring charge associated with an exchange of Security Capital
shares for shares of a corporate entity owned by Security Capital's chairman,
whose sole assets were warrants and options to purchase Security Capital
shares. This charge represents the value applicable to the holder's ability to
defer exercising the warrants and options until 2002 in accordance with their
terms.
 
Per Share Data:
Per share data is computed based on weighted average shares outstanding during
the period. In the computation of net loss per common share, outstanding
options and warrants are not included as common stock equivalents as to do so
would have an anti-dilutive effect. In the computation of net earnings per
common share, outstanding options and warrants are included as common stock
equivalents using the treasury stock method. The conversion of convertible debt
and preferred stock into common shares is not assumed as the effect would be
anti-dilutive.
 
In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) released
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, Earnings Per Share, (SFAS
No. 128). The new statement is effective December 31, 1997. At that time,
Security Capital will be required to change the method currently used to
compute earnings per share and to restate all prior periods. Under the new
requirements for calculating primary earnings per share, the dilutive effect of
stock options and warrants will be excluded. The result would be an increase in
earnings per share for the six months ended June 30, 1997 of $.13 per share,
with no material effect on the six months ended June 30, 1996 or the three
months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996.
 
(6) INCOME TAXES
 
Security Capital accounts for income taxes under Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 109, Accounting For Income Taxes (SFAS No. 109).
Security Capital files a consolidated federal income tax return. Homestead also
accounts for income taxes under SFAS No. 109 and its tax effects are included
in Security Capital's consolidated financial statements. Homestead files a
separate Federal income tax return. ATLANTIC has elected to be taxed as a real
estate investment trust under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.
Accordingly, no provision has been made in Security Capital's consolidated
financial statements for federal income taxes for ATLANTIC's operations.
 
Security Capital had tax net operating loss carryforwards of approximately
$64,000,000 at June 30, 1997. Approximately $20,000,000 of these loss
carryforwards relate to the REIT and property management companies that are
being sold (see note 2). Security Capital will be unable to use these
carryforwards if the transactions are consummated. If not previously utilized,
the loss carryforwards will expire beginning 2005 through 2010. Utilization of
existing net operating loss carryforwards is limited by IRC Section 382
(limitation on net operating loss carryforwards following ownership change) and
the Separate Return Limitation Year (SRLY) rules.

             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
 
 
Security Capital's deferred tax assets relate primarily to its net operating
loss carryforwards and such deferred tax assets are completely offset by a
valuation allowance. Deferred tax liabilities result from Security Capital's
investments in equity method operating companies.
 
(7) COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
 
Security Capital and its investees are parties to various claims and routine
litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. Based on discussion with
legal counsel, Security Capital does not believe that the results of all claims
and litigation, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse
effect on its business, financial position or results of operations.
 
Security Capital's investees are subject to environmental and health and safety
laws and regulations related to the ownership, operation, development and
acquisition of real estate. Under such laws and regulations, Security Capital
may be liable for, among other things, the costs of removal or remediation of
certain hazardous substances, including asbestos-related liability. Such laws
and regulations often impose liability without regard to fault.
 
As part of due diligence procedures, Security Capital's investees conduct Phase
I environmental assessments on each property prior to acquisition. The cost of
complying with environmental regulations was not material to Security Capital's
results of operations. Security Capital and its investees are not aware of any
environmental condition on any of their properties which is likely to have a
material adverse effect on its financial condition or results of operations.
 
At June 30, 1997, Security Capital had approximately $264,700,000 of unfunded
development commitments for developments under construction. ATLANTIC and
Homestead's commitments were $96,700,000 and $168,000,000, respectively.
 
(8) RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
 
In March 1997, the FASB released Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No. 129, Disclosure of Information about Capital Structure. Security Capital
already complies with the requirements of the Statement which is effective for
periods ending after December 15, 1997.
 
The FASB also released Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130,
Reporting Comprehensive Income (SFAS No. 130), governing the reporting and
display of comprehensive income and its components, and Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 131, Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and
Related Information (SFAS No. 131), requiring that all public businesses report
financial and descriptive information about their reportable operating
segments. Both Statements are applicable to reporting periods beginning after
December 15, 1997. The impact of adopting SFAS No. 130 is not expected to be
material to the consolidated financial statements or notes to consolidated

                    REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
 
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of
Security Capital Group Incorporated:
 
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Security
Capital Group Incorporated and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1996 and 1995
and the related consolidated statements of operations, shareholders' equity,
and cash flows for each of the three years ended December 31, 1996. These
financial statements and the schedules referred to below are the responsibility
of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on
these financial statements and schedules referred to below based on our audits.
We did not audit the financial statements and accompanying Schedule IIIs of
Security Capital Pacific Trust, Security Capital Atlantic Incorporated,
Security Capital U.S. Realty and Homestead Village Incorporated, for which the
accompanying statements reflect $2,315,847,000 (79.1%) and $1,316,951,000
(71.0%) of the total consolidated assets of Security Capital Group Incorporated
and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively, and
$289,515,000 (72.7%), $128,589,000 (64.1%) and $84,841,000 (54.1%) of the total
consolidated income in the consolidated statements of operations of Security
Capital Group Incorporated and subsidiaries for each of the three years ended
December 31, 1996, respectively. Those statements and the accompanying Schedule
IIIs were audited by other auditors whose reports have been furnished to us and
our opinion, insofar as it relates to the amounts included for those entities,
is based solely on the reports of the other auditors.
 
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. 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 audits and the reports of other
auditors provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
 
In our opinion, based on our audits and reports of other auditors, the
financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material
respects, the financial position of Security Capital Group Incorporated and
subsidiaries as of December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the results of their
operations and their cash flows for each of the three years ended December 31,
1996, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
 
Our audits were made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
consolidated financial statements taken as a whole. The attached Schedules I
and III are presented for purposes of complying with the Securities and
Exchange Commission's rules and are not part of the basic consolidated
financial statements. These schedules have been subjected to the auditing
procedures applied in the audit of the basic consolidated financial statements
and, in our opinion, based on our audits and the reports of other auditors,
fairly state in all material respects the financial data required to be set
forth therein in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
Business:
Security Capital Group Incorporated ("Security Capital"), formerly Security
Capital Realty Incorporated, is a corporation organized under the laws of the
state of Maryland engaged in the creation and operation of real estate
operating companies. Security Capital has invested in five operating companies
(the "Capital Division"). Three such investees are highly focused, fully
integrated real estate operating companies formed as real estate investment
trusts (REITs), which own, develop, acquire, and operate income-producing
multifamily properties and distribution facilities. The fourth investee is a
European-based company formed with the objective of owning strategic positions
in United States real estate operating companies focused on specific subsectors
of retail, office and other well researched property types. The fifth investee
develops, owns and operates moderately priced, extended-stay lodging properties
across the United States. Security Capital also includes a "Services Division",
which provides management and property management services to the companies in
which Security Capital has made investments. The Services Division provides
strategic guidance, research, investment analysis, acquisition and development
services, asset management, property management, capital markets services and
legal and accounting services.
 
Merger:
Security Capital was formed by the merger of two affiliated, but not commonly
controlled, entities on January 1, 1995. Security Capital Group Incorporated
("GROUP"), a Delaware corporation, which consisted of the Services Division
companies, was merged with and into Security Capital Realty Incorporated
("REALTY"). Subsequently REALTY changed its name to that of its merged
affiliate, Security Capital Group Incorporated, and the combined entity is
referred to herein as Security Capital. For purposes of determining the value
of GROUP's Services Division companies acquired by REALTY on January 1, 1995,
Security Capital calculated for the six month period ending December 31, 1994
and for each of the years ending December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995, the
projected management fees, net of operating overhead, which Security Capital
would have received under existing management agreements for assets currently
owned or forecasted to be owned by the operating companies during this time
period. Security Capital then multiplied the 1997 net operating income derived
from such fees by a multiple of 9.0x and discounted this value along with the
net operating income derived from such fees between 1994 and 1996 back to July
1, 1994 using an annual discount rate of 17.5%. In the merger, all of GROUP's
outstanding stock and principal amount of GROUP convertible subordinated
debentures were exchanged for REALTY stock and REALTY convertible subordinated
debentures due June 30, 2014 (the "2014 Convertible Debentures"). REALTY issued
135,261 shares of common stock, $70,178,000 of 2014 Convertible Debentures and
options to acquire 58,772 shares of REALTY common stock and $29,298,000 of 2014
Convertible Debentures for an aggregate securities issuance of $233,708,000.
The REALTY options were issued in exchange for GROUP options and warrants held
by certain employees and directors and such options are exercisable subject to
their prior terms regarding vesting and aggregate exercise price.
 
The Services Division companies do not qualify as "businesses" for purposes of
applying APB Opinion No. 16, "Business Combinations". Accordingly, the excess
of the aggregate value of the securities issued ($233,708,000) over the fair
value of the net tangible assets acquired ($75,264,000) has been recorded as
"Costs incurred in acquiring Services Division from related party"
($158,444,000) in the accompanying 1995 Consolidated Statement of Operations.
 
Principles of Financial Presentation:
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the results of
Security Capital, its majority-owned operating companies (Security Capital
Atlantic Incorporated and Homestead Village Incorporated) and its wholly owned
Services Division subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and
transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Minority interest is
comprised of the minority shareholders of Security Capital Atlantic
Incorporated and Homestead Village Incorporated.

                      SECURITY CAPITAL GROUP INCORPORATED
                                AND SUBSIDIARIES
 
             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
 
Security Capital accounts for its 20% or greater (but not more than 50%) owned
investees by the equity method. For an investee accounted for under the equity
method, Security Capital's share of net earnings or losses of the investee is
reflected in income as earned and dividends are credited against the investment
as received.
 
Cash and Cash Equivalents:
Security Capital considers all cash on hand, demand deposits with financial
institutions and short-term, highly liquid investments with original maturities
of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
 
Real Estate and Depreciation:
Real estate is carried at cost, which is not in excess of net realizable value.
Costs directly related to the acquisition, renovation or development of real
estate for Security Capital's majority-owned operating companies are
capitalized. Costs incurred in connection with the pursuit of unsuccessful
acquisitions or developments are expensed at the time the pursuit is abandoned.
 
Repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred. Renovations and improvements
are capitalized and depreciated over their estimated useful lives.
 
Depreciation is computed over the expected useful lives of depreciable property
on a straight-line basis. Properties are depreciated principally over the
useful lives of 20 to 40 years for multifamily and extended-stay buildings and
improvements and 2 to 10 years for furnishings and other equipment.
 
Interest:
Security Capital capitalizes interest as part of the cost of real estate
projects under development. During 1996, 1995 and 1994, the total interest paid
on all outstanding debt was $100,423,000, $82,336,000 and $46,760,000,
respectively, including $11,448,000, $4,404,000 and $3,184,000, respectively,
which was capitalized.
 
Cost of Raising Capital:
Costs incurred in connection with the issuance of common shares are deducted
from shareholders' equity. Costs incurred in connection with the issuance or
renewal of debt are capitalized, included with other assets and amortized over
the term of the related loan in the case of issuance costs or twelve months in
the case of renewal costs. Amortization of deferred financing costs included in
interest expense for the years ended December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994 was
$2,923,000, $2,404,000 and $2,387,000, respectively.
 
Revenue Recognition:
Rental, fee and interest income are recorded on the accrual method of
accounting. A provision for possible loss is made when collection of
receivables is considered doubtful.
 
Per Share Data:
Per share data is computed based on weighted-average shares outstanding during
the period. In the computation of net loss per common share, outstanding
options and warrants are not included as common stock equivalents as to do so
would have an anti-dilutive effect. In the computation of net earnings per
common share, outstanding options and warrants are included as common stock
equivalents using the treasury stock method. The conversion of convertible debt
into common shares is not assumed as the effect would be anti-dilutive.
 
Use of Estimates:
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 assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
Recent Accounting Pronouncement:
Properties and other long-lived assets are periodically evaluated for
impairment and provisions for possible losses are made if required. Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121, Accounting For The Impairment Of

Long-Lived Assets And For Long-Lived Assets To Be Disposed Of, has been adopted
by Security Capital and its affiliates, as required, effective January 1, 1996.
The adoption of this accounting standard had no material impact on the
financial statements as of the date of adoption.
 
Reclassifications:
Certain amounts in the 1995 and 1994 consolidated financial statements and
notes to consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to
the 1996 presentation.
 
2. SERVICES DIVISION
 
Certain Security Capital Services Division subsidiaries, under the terms of
separate agreements, manage the operations of the separate REITs ("REIT
Managers"), provide property management services to those REITs ("Property
Managers") and manage the operations of Security Capital U.S. Realty ("SC-
USREALTY") ("Operating Advisor"). Each REIT Manager is paid a REIT management
fee based on a percentage of the REIT's pre-management fee cash flow, after
deducting actual and assumed regularly scheduled principal payments for long-
term debt and dividends paid on non-convertible preferred shares, as defined in
the REIT Management Agreements. The fee is generally 16% of cash flow, as so
defined, for the REIT. Property management fees are at market rates and are
paid separately to Security Capital's property management subsidiaries. The
REIT and Property Management Agreements are generally one year in term,
renewable annually by the REIT and cancelable upon sixty days notice. The
Operating Advisor is paid a management fee of 1.25% of SC-USREALTY's
investments at fair value (other than liquid short-term investments and
investments in Security Capital). The Operating Advisor agreement dated August
7, 1995 is for a term of two years, renewable every two years on the same terms
and cancelable upon sixty days notice.
 
There were no Services Division revenues reported for the year ended 1994.
These subsidiaries were acquired January 1, 1995 in the GROUP/REALTY merger.
See Note 1.
 
In late January 1997, Security Capital made a proposal to Security Capital
Industrial Trust, Security Capital Pacific Trust and Security Capital Atlantic
Incorporated to exchange the REIT and Property Managers for additional shares
of the respective REITs. As a result of the proposed transaction, each of the
REITs would become internally managed. The board of trustees or directors of
each REIT has appointed a special committee comprised of independent directors
or trustees to review the proposed transaction. The proposed transaction is
subject to approval (see Note 11) by each REIT's special committee as well as
its board of directors or trustees and shareholders.

3. REAL ESTATE INVESTMENTS:
 
Security Capital holds investments at December 31, 1996 through its wholly-
owned subsidiary, SC Realty Incorporated ("SC Realty"), as follows:
 
  .  Security Capital Industrial Trust ("SCI"), a publicly held REIT,
     acquires, develops, markets, operates and owns distribution facilities
     and develops master-planned distribution parks and build-to-suit
     facilities throughout the United States. At December 31, 1996 and 1995,
     Security Capital owned 46.00% and 48.33%, respectively, of the issued
     and outstanding common shares of beneficial interest of SCI. During 1996
     and 1995, Security Capital accounted for its investment in SCI by the
     equity method as Security Capital's ownership in SCI fell below 50% upon
     completion of SCI's September 1995 rights offering. In 1994, Security
     Capital consolidated SCI's accounts.
 
  .  Security Capital Pacific Trust ("PTR"), a publicly held REIT, primarily
     owns, develops, acquires and operates income-producing multifamily
     properties in the western United States. On March 23, 1995, Security
     Capital Pacific Incorporated ("PACIFIC"), a real estate investment trust
     owned 97.61% by Security Capital, was merged with and into PTR, and PTR
     changed its name to Security Capital Pacific Trust. In the merger each
     share of PACIFIC was converted into 0.611 shares of PTR. At December 31,
     1996 and 1995, Security Capital owned 36.28% and 37.93%, respectively,
     of the issued and outstanding common shares of beneficial interest of
     PTR.
 
     Security Capital accounts for its investment in PTR by the equity
     method. Due to PACIFIC's merger into PTR in 1995, Security Capital has
     accounted for its investment in PACIFIC in 1995 by the equity method and
     combined such amounts with PTR's in the accompanying 1995 consolidated
     financial statements. In 1994, Security Capital consolidated PACIFIC's
     accounts.
 
  .  Security Capital Atlantic Incorporated ("ATLANTIC"), a publicly held
     REIT as of October 18, 1996, owns, acquires, develops and operates
     income-producing multifamily properties in the southeastern United
     States. In consideration for Security Capital's participation in
     ATLANTIC's March 31, 1995 and

            NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
 
     November 15, 1995 private placement offerings, ATLANTIC assumed Security
     Capital's Put Obligations to purchase 3,750,000 shares of ATLANTIC
     stock, owned by the holder of the Put Obligations, at a total cost of
     $83,920,000. On July 1, 1996, Security Capital purchased 1,250,000
     shares of ATLANTIC stock from a minority interest holder at a total cost
     of $30,663,000. On October 18, 1996, Security Capital purchased an
     additional 416,666 shares of ATLANTIC in ATLANTIC's initial public
     offering at a cost of $24 per share. At December 31, 1996 and 1995,
     Security Capital owned 56.86% and 71.60%, respectively, of the issued
     and outstanding common shares of ATLANTIC. Security Capital consolidates
     ATLANTIC's accounts in the accompanying consolidated financial
     statements.
 
  .  SC-USREALTY is a Luxembourg real estate corporation formed at the
     direction of Security Capital with the objective of becoming one of
     Europe's preeminent publicly held real estate entities that will
     principally own real estate through strategic positions in both public
     and private real estate companies in the United States. Security Capital
     made its first investment of $19,970,000 in SC-USREALTY, by converting
     $19,970,000 of the principal of a $53,000,000 note receivable to an
     investment in 1,997,000 shares of SC-USREALTY, on October 30, 1995 as
     part of its subscription commitment. Security Capital has funded total
     subscriptions of $200,000,000 for the common stock of SC-USREALTY
     ($199,700,000 was invested by Security Capital and $300,000 by Security
     Capital (EU) Management S.A., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Security
     Capital and the advisor to SC-USREALTY). In addition to the
     subscriptions, on July 1, 1996, Security Capital purchased 9,132,420
     shares of SC-USREALTY in a public European offering at a cost of $11.06
     per share and an additional 6,282,241 shares in a public European
     offering, at a cost of $12.44 a share, on December 17, 1996. Also,
     during 1996, Security Capital purchased shares of SC-USREALTY with a
     total value of $34,041,000 in the open market and in a privately
     negotiated transaction. At December 31, 1996 and 1995 Security Capital

  .  On October 17, 1996, Security Capital, ATLANTIC and PTR completed the
     spin-off of their extended stay lodging assets to Homestead Village
     Incorporated ("Homestead"). As described below, upon consummation of the
     transaction, Homestead's common shares were held by Security Capital and
     shareholders of ATLANTIC and PTR. Given the common ownership of the
     "Homestead assets" before and after the spin-out, Security Capital did
     not record a gain on this transaction in its consolidated financial
     statements.

    from the PTR and ATLANTIC REIT management agreements and property
    management agreements relating to the Homestead properties in exchange
    for 4,062,788 shares of Homestead common stock, including 2,150,892
    shares which are in escrow and will be released as funds are advanced
    under the ATLANTIC and PTR Funding Commitment Agreements described
    below. In addition, Security Capital contributed the Homestead
    trademark, the operating system and certain Homestead development
    properties Security Capital had acquired as they were outside the target
    markets of ATLANTIC and PTR. Security Capital also received 817,694
    warrants to purchase Homestead shares at $10 per share in exchange for
    providing funding to Homestead during the time between the execution of
    the merger agreement and the closing date and the use of office
    facilities for one year. Under the terms of an Investor Agreement,
    Homestead can require Security Capital to exercise all or a portion of
    its warrants with proper written notice.
 
    ATLANTIC and PTR contributed assets consisting of operating properties
    as well as properties under construction or in planning (or the rights
    to acquire such properties) and ATLANTIC contributed $16.8 million in
    cash. In addition, ATLANTIC and PTR entered into Funding Commitment
    Agreements to provide secured financing of up to $111.1 million and
    $199.0 million, respectively, to Homestead for completing the
    development and construction of the properties contributed in the
    transaction. ATLANTIC and PTR received 4,201,220 and 9,485,727 shares,
    respectively, of Homestead common stock in exchange for the assets
    contributed and 2,818,517 and 6,363,789 warrants, respectively, to
    purchase Homestead shares at $10 per share in exchange for entering into
    the Funding Commitment Agreements. ATLANTIC and PTR will receive
    convertible mortgage notes from Homestead as fundings occur under the

4. INDEBTEDNESS:
 
Lines of Credit:
At December 31, 1996, Security Capital and its consolidated REIT subsidiary,
ATLANTIC, had revolving bank lines of credit. Security Capital has a
$300,000,000 revolving line of credit with Wells Fargo Realty Advisors,
Incorporated ("Wells Fargo") as agent for a group of lenders. The agreement is
effective through November 15, 1998 with an option to renew for successive one
year periods, with the approval of Wells Fargo and the participating lenders.
Borrowings bear interest, at Security Capital's option, at either LIBOR plus
1.50% (1.75% prior to August 19, 1996) or a base rate (defined as the higher of
Wells Fargo prime rate or the Federal Funds Rate plus .50%) with interest
payable monthly in arrears. Commitment fees range from .125% to .25% per annum
based on the average unfunded line of credit balance (such fees were .125% on
all unfunded balances prior to October 1, 1996). Security Capital's line is
secured by its holdings in SCI, PTR, ATLANTIC, SC-USREALTY and Homestead,
including warrants to purchase shares of Homestead's common stock, as well as
any unfunded subscriptions for Security Capital's common stock and convertible
subordinated debentures. Subscriptions receivable for Security Capital's 1996
private placement offering totaled $193,045,000 as of December 31, 1996.
 
The Security Capital line of credit is a primary obligation of SC Realty.
Security Capital guarantees the line. SC Realty is a legal entity which is
separate and distinct from Security Capital and its affiliates, and has
separate assets, liabilities, business functions and operations.
 
Dividends, redemptions, repurchases of stock, or other payments or transfers in
respect of such stock are limited to 95% of Security Capital's cash flow
available for distribution if no event of default has occurred and is
continuing. During default, no such payments other than mandatory interest on
subordinated debentures may be made. Additionally, dividends, redemptions,
repurchases of stock, or other payments or transfers in respect of such stock
are limited to 100% of SC Realty's cash flow available for distribution if no
event of default has occurred and is continuing. During default, no such
payments may be made.
 
On December 18, 1996, ATLANTIC obtained a $350,000,000 unsecured line of credit
from Morgan Guaranty Trust Company of New York ("Morgan Guaranty"), as agent
for a group of lenders, that replaced its previous $350,000,000 secured line of
credit. Borrowings bear interest at prime, or at ATLANTIC's option, LIBOR plus
a margin ranging from 1.0% to 1.375% (currently 1.375% as compared to 1.5%
under the previous agreement) depending on ATLANTIC's debt rating. ATLANTIC
currently pays a commitment fee on the average unfunded line of credit balance
of 0.1875%. The line of credit matures December 1998 and may be extended for
one year with the approval of Morgan Guaranty and the other participating
lenders.

             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
 
 
In August 1995, ATLANTIC entered into a swap agreement with Goldman Sachs
Capital Markets, L.P. covering $100,000,000 of borrowings under the line of
credit. Under this one-year agreement which became effective on February 5,
1996, ATLANTIC paid a fixed rate of interest of 7.46% from February 5, 1996 to
December 17, 1996 and 7.335% thereafter. Upon expiration of the existing swap
agreement on February 5, 1997, a swap agreement with Morgan Guaranty took
effect. The Morgan Guaranty agreement provides for a fixed rate of 7.325% on
$100,000,000 of borrowing through February 5, 1998. The interest rate ATLANTIC
will pay under the new agreement will be reduced if ATLANTIC achieves an
investment-grade debt rating and will range from 6.95% to 7% depending on the
rating achieved. ATLANTIC paid $332,000 more in interest during 1996 than was
received under the swap agreement. ATLANTIC is exposed to credit loss in the
event of non-performance by the swap counterparty; however, ATLANTIC believes
the risk of loss is minimal.
 
Each line requires maintenance of certain financial covenants. Security
Capital, SC Realty and ATLANTIC were in compliance with all such covenants at
December 31, 1996.
 
A summary of the lines of credit borrowings as of and for the years ended
December 31, 1996 and 1995 is as follows (dollar amounts in thousands):

agreement, Homestead may call for funding from PTR through March 31, 1998 for
the development of the projects acquired from PTR in the transaction. As a
result of the fundings, PTR will receive convertible mortgage notes in stated
amounts of up to $221,000,000. The notes are collaterized by Homestead
properties.

amortization of capitalized costs associated with the credit enhancement
agreement.
 
ATLANTIC paid $1,832,000 more in interest during 1996 and $575,000 more in
interest during 1995 than was received under the swap agreements. The swap
agreements cover the principal amount of the bonds, net of amounts deposited in
the principal reserve fund. ATLANTIC pays interest on that portion of bonds not
covered by the swap agreements at the variable rates as provided by the
mortgage agreements. ATLANTIC is exposed to credit loss in the event of non-
performance by the swap counterparties; however, ATLANTIC believes the risk of
loss is minimal.
 
Real estate with an aggregate undepreciated cost at December 31, 1996 of
$50,714,000 and $206,963,000 serves as collateral for the conventional mortgage
notes payable and the tax-exempt mortgages, respectively.
 
Homestead issued warrants to PTR in exchange for entering into the funding
commitment agreements (Note 3). The costs associated with the issuance of the
warrants have been recorded as deferred financing costs. The premium/discount
(i.e. the difference between the stated amount and the funded amount), the
value attributable to the conversion feature, and the costs associated with the
warrants are amortized to interest expense over the term of the related
mortgage note payable using a method which approximates the effective interest
method. The effective interest rate on the PTR convertible mortgage note
payable after giving effect to the related discount, conversion feature, and
warrants is estimated to be 13.56%.
 
The mortgage notes are convertible, at the option of PTR, into common shares of
Homestead common stock beginning April 1, 1997. The conversion price is equal
to one share of common stock for every $11.50 of principal amount outstanding.
 
Approximate principal payments due on mortgage notes payable during each of the
years in the five-year period ending December 31, 2001 and thereafter are as

Capital. Any deferred interest accrues interest at 12% and is due upon
maturity. The Board of Directors of Security Capital approved a cash interest
payment rate of 9.939% and 9.376% per annum for 1996 and 1995, respectively.
 
Security Capital's convertible subordinated debentures due March 29, 2016 (the
"2016 Convertible Debentures") totaling $226,520,000 at December 31, 1996 and
none at December 31, 1995 accrue interest at 6.5% per annum and require semi-
annual interest payments on the last business day of June and December.
Security Capital has received subscriptions from its March 1996 private
placement offering for 2016 Convertible Debentures of $323,048,500.
 
The principal amount of the 2014 and 2016 Convertible Debentures are
convertible into Security Capital common stock at $1,046.00 and $1,153.90 per
share, respectively, at the option of the holder any time after the earlier to
occur of (i) the first anniversary of Security Capital's initial public
offering of its common stock, (ii) July 1, 1999 and March 29, 2001 for the 2014
and 2016 Convertible Debentures, respectively, (iii) the consolidation or
merger of Security Capital with another entity (other than a merger in which
Security Capital is the surviving entity) or any sale or disposition of
substantially all the assets of Security Capital or (iv) notice of redemption
of the debentures by Security Capital. On conversion of the 2014 Convertible
Debentures, any accrued and unpaid deferred interest shall be deemed to be paid
in full upon delivery of the common shares to the debenture holder. Security
Capital may redeem the 2014 Convertible Debentures at any time and the 2016
Convertible Debentures may be redeemed at any time after March 29, 1999. To
redeem the debentures, Security Capital must provide not less than 60 days nor
more than 90 days prior written notice to the holders. The redemption price is
par plus any accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date.
 
5. SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY:
 
Security Capital has received subscriptions from its March 1996 private
placement offerings of securities totaling $785,097,000. Such subscriptions
consist of preferred stock of $139,000,000, common stock of $323,048,500, and
2016 Convertible Debentures of $323,048,500.
 
On April 1, 1996 Security Capital issued 139,000 shares of its Series A
Cumulative Convertible Redeemable Voting Preferred Stock ("Series A Preferred
Shares"). The Series A Preferred Shares have a liquidation preference of $1,000
per share for an aggregate preference of $139,000,000 plus any accrued but
unpaid dividends. The holder of the Series A Preferred Shares is entitled to
voting rights, equal to the number of common shares into which the Series A
Preferred Shares are convertible, on matters of amendments of Security
Capital's Articles of Incorporation and merger of Security Capital, or sale of
substantially all assets or liquidation or dissolution, and one-half of such
number of common shares on other matters submitted to a vote of the common
shareholders. Each Series A Preferred Share is convertible, at the option of
the holder at any time, into 0.76184 of Security Capital common shares (a
conversion price of $1,312.61 per share). In the event that the holder of the
Series A Preferred Shares would be prohibited under the Bank Holding Company
Act of 1956, as amended, from owning securities constituting or convertible
into 5% or more of the outstanding common shares, then the conversion rights of
the shares of Series A Preferred Shares by such holder shall be modified as
follows: (i) the number of shares of Series A Preferred Shares held by such
holder which may then be converted by such holder without resulting in such
holder owning 5% or more of the common shares outstanding after such conversion
shall be convertible into common shares; and (ii) any shares of Series A
Preferred Shares held by such holder in excess of the number of shares which
may then be converted as described in clause (i) will not be convertible into
common shares until such time as (and only to the extent that) (A) such shares
may be converted without resulting in such holder owning 5% or more of the
common shares outstanding after such conversion or (B) such shares are held by
a person not prohibited from owning securities constituting or convertible into
5% or more of common shares as described above. Holders of the Series A
Preferred Shares will be entitled to receive, when, as and if declared by the
Board of Directors, out of funds legally available for the payment of
dividends, cumulative preferential cash distributions at the rate of 7.5% of
the liquidation preference per annum (equivalent to $75.00 per share). Such
distributions are cumulative from the date of original issue and are payable
quarterly in arrears on the last day of each March, June, September and
December or, if not a business day, the next succeeding business day. The
Series A Preferred Shares are redeemable, at the option of Security Capital,
after March 31, 1999.

Through December 31, 1996 Security Capital has received fundings for the
issuance of 215,946 shares of common stock ($226,526,000) and 2016 Convertible
Debentures ($226,526,000). Included in the fundings was $22,500,000 received
from USREALTY. USREALTY has committed to a total subscription of $110,000,000
in Security Capital's offering.
 
Participants in Security Capital's Debenture Interest Reinvestment Plans may
reinvest the cash portion of their interest payments applicable to Security
Capital's 2014 and 2016 Convertible Debentures in Security Capital common stock
at the estimated fair value per share determined as of the prior quarter end
date. As of December 31, 1996, 74,602 shares of Security Capital's common stock
have been reserved for issuance under these plans.
 
6. STOCK OPTION PLANS AND WARRANTS:
 
Security Capital has stock and convertible debenture option plans for
directors, officers and key employees which provide for grants of non-qualified
and incentive options. Prior to 1996, all options and warrants were issued in
units consisting of common stock and 2014 Convertible Debentures. Such options
must be exercised in units which consist of both shares and debentures. In
1996, most option grants were for common stock only. Shares totaling 262,615
have been reserved for options and warrants, including shares obtainable upon
conversion of debentures. Under all plans, the option exercise price equals the
fair value of the stock or stock and debentures, as applicable as of the date
of grant. Vesting of the options commences no more than three years from grant
date and options are fully vested no more than six years from grant date.
Options expire ten years from date of grant.
 
Security Capital has adopted the disclosure-only provisions of Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation. Accordingly, no compensation cost has been recognized for the
option plans. As permitted by Statement 123, Security Capital has applied its
provisions to options granted subsequent to December 31, 1994. Since the
Statement 123 method of accounting has not been applied to options granted
prior to 1995, the resulting pro forma compensation cost may not be
representative of such costs to be expected in future years. The pro forma
effect of Statement 123 is summarized as follows (in thousands, except share
data):

The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the
Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted-average
assumptions used for grants in 1996 and 1995, respectively: risk-free interest
rates of 6.32% and 6.26%; expected lives of seven years for 1996 and 1995;
expected dividends--none; and expected volatility of 20% for both years.

The weighted-average fair value per share of options granted during 1996 and
1995 was $447 and $368, respectively.
 
In connection with ATLANTIC's acquisition of a portfolio of multifamily assets
in June 1994, Security Capital issued a warrant to the seller to purchase
40,241 shares and $30,500,000 of 2014 Convertible Debentures for an aggregate
price of $60,000,000 ($865 per fully converted share).The warrant expires March
31, 1998; however, if Security Capital's common stock is not registered by that
date, the warrant will automatically be exercised according to its cashless
exercise provisions. Due to its immateriality, no value has been assigned to
the warrant in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

Lease expense for the years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995 was $3,659,000 and
$2,692,000, respectively, including $1,390,000 and $813,000 in 1996 and 1995,
respectively, paid to SCI. There was no lease expense during 1994. Included
above are lease agreements with SCI with a total remaining obligation of
$10,647,000.
 
8. INCOME TAXES:
 
Security Capital accounts for income taxes under Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 109, Accounting For Income Taxes. Security Capital
files a consolidated Federal income tax return. Homestead also accounts for
income taxes under Statement 109 and its tax effects are included in Security
Capital's consolidated financial statements. Homestead files a separate Federal
income tax return. ATLANTIC has elected to be taxed as a real estate investment
trust under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Accordingly, no
provisions have been made for Federal income taxes for its operations in
Security Capital's consolidated financial statements.
 
Federal income tax expense for the years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995
consisted of deferred tax provisions of $30,872,000 and none, respectively.
Prior to 1995, Security Capital had elected to be taxed as a REIT; therefore
there is no tax provision for 1994. Security Capital terminated its REIT status
as of January 1, 1995 as a result of the merger with GROUP.
 
A reconciliation of income tax expense computed at the applicable Federal tax
rate of 35% in 1996 and 1995 to the amount recorded in the consolidated

Security Capital had tax net operating loss carryforwards of approximately
$61,000,000 at December 31, 1996 and 1995. If not previously utilized, the loss
carryforwards will expire beginning 2005 through 2010. Utilization of existing
net operating loss carryforwards is limited by IRC Section 382 (limitation on
net operating loss carryforwards following ownership change) and the Separate
Return Limitation Year ("SRLY") rules.
 
As mentioned above, prior to 1995, Security Capital elected to be taxed as a
REIT. For 1994, total distributions per share were $791.00, consisting of
$33.50 in cash distributions and a $757.50 debenture distribution. For Federal
income tax purposes, the estimated taxability of distributions was as follows--
ordinary income ($7.91 per share); return of capital ($783.09 per share). Also,
for the period that Security Capital elected to be taxed as a REIT, its
Accumulated Deficit included only ordinary income and did not include any
undistributed net realized gains on disposition of real estate.

9. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
 
Security Capital and its investees are parties to various claims and routine
litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. Based on discussions
with legal counsel, Security Capital does not believe that the results of all
claims and litigation, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material
adverse effect on its business, financial position or results of operations.
 
Security Capital's investees are subject to environmental regulations related
to the ownership, operation, development and acquisition of real estate. As
part of due diligence procedures, Security Capital's investees conduct Phase I
environmental assessments on each property prior to acquisition. The cost of
complying with environmental regulations was not material to Security Capital's
results of operations. Security Capital and its investees are not aware of any
environmental condition on any of their properties which is likely to have a
material adverse effect on financial condition or results of operations.
 
At December 31, 1996, Security Capital had approximately $323,353,000 of
unfunded development commitments for developments under construction. ATLANTIC
and Homestead's commitments were $95,900,000 and $227,453,000, respectively.
 
10. FAIR VALUES OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
 
The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, other assets, accounts
payable and accrued expenses approximates fair value as of December 31, 1996
and 1995 because of the short maturity of these instruments. Similarly, the
carrying value of line of credit borrowings approximates fair value as of those
dates because the interest rates fluctuate based on published market rates. In
the opinion of management, the interest rates associated with the conventional
mortgages payable and the tax exempt mortgages payable approximate the market
interest rates for this type of instrument, and as such, the carrying values
approximate fair value at December 31, 1996 and 1995, in all material respects.
 
PTR's convertible mortgage notes are convertible into Homestead common stock
after March 31, 1997 on the basis of one share of Homestead common stock for
every $11.50 of principal amount outstanding. The fair value of the convertible
mortgage notes (assuming conversion), based upon the trading price of
Homestead's common stock on the American Stock Exchange at December 31, 1996,
($18.00) is $176,304,000.

11. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
 
On March 24, 1997, the board of trustees or directors of SCI, PTR and ATLANTIC
each unanimously approved an agreement with Security Capital to exchange its
REIT common stock for Security Capital's REIT management and property
management companies. The transactions, subject to approval by the shareholders
of Security Capital SCI, PTR and ATLANTIC, are expected to be consummated
during the third quarter of 1997. Under the terms of the agreements, SCI, PTR
and ATLANTIC, will issue $81.9 million, $75.8 million and $54.6 million of
their common stock, respectively, in exchange for Security Capital's REIT
management and property management companies and operating systems. After
giving effect to income taxes and the effect of the investees' accounting for
these acquisitions, Security Capital expects the gain on sale of the management
companies to SCI and PTR will be approximately $55,000,000. No gain will be
recorded on the sale to ATLANTIC as Security Capital consolidates ATLANTIC's
accounts.
 
In order to allow existing shareholders to maintain (and, to the extent a
shareholder oversubscribes for common shares pursuant to the oversubscription
privilege, increase) their relative ownership interests, SCI, PTR and ATLANTIC
will conduct rights offerings during the time proxies are solicited from their
shareholders. Also, as part of the transaction, Security Capital will issue
warrants to acquire $250 million of Class B shares to the common and
convertible preferred shareholders of SCI, PTR and ATLANTIC. The warrants are
expected to be publicly traded and have a term of twelve months. Security
Capital expects to file a registration statement with the Securities and
Exchange Commission covering its initial public offering of Class B shares in
the third quarter of 1997.
 
On April 17, 1997 Security Capital shareholders approved an amended and
restated charter which created Class A and Class B Shares. All outstanding
common stock as of April 18, 1997 was automatically changed to Class A Shares.
All references to Security Capital common stock are to Class A Shares unless
otherwise noted.

            NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNCONSOLIDATED)
1. INVESTMENTS IN SUBSIDIARIES
 
Security Capital has investments in SC Realty Incorporated ("SC Realty") and a
Services Division. SC Realty and the entities that comprise the Services
Division are wholly-owned subsidiaries of Security Capital.
 
SC Realty commenced operations February 17, 1995 when Security Capital
contributed its investments in Security Capital Industrial Trust, Security
Capital Pacific Trust, Security Capital Pacific Incorporated and Security
Capital Atlantic Incorporated. At December 31, 1996, SC Realty holds interests
in the above-mentioned companies as well as Security Capital U.S. Realty and
Homestead Village Incorporated. The Services Division subsidiaries provide
management and property management services to the companies in which SC Realty
has made investments. The Services Division provides strategic guidance,
research, investment analysis, acquisition and development services, asset
management, property management, capital markets services and legal accounting
services. As described in note 1 to Security Capital's consolidated financial
statements, the Services Division companies were acquired January 1, 1995.
 
Dividends from consolidated subsidiaries amounted to $51,964,000, $47,500,000
and $35,036,000, during 1996, 1995 and 1994 respectively. In addition, during
1994 Security Capital received dividends from an unconsolidated subsidiary
amounting to $13,169,000.
 
Effective February 17, 1995, SC Realty became the primary obligor under
Security Capital's revolving bank line of credit. The line is guaranteed by
Security Capital and it contains financial covenants that are applicable to
both SC Realty and Security Capital. The line of credit agreement generally
requires some or all of the following: minimum net worth, liabilities to net
worth, specified interest coverage ratios and limitations on the amount
available for dividends. At December 31, 1996, SC Realty's net assets were
approximately $1.9 billion substantially all of which were restricted and
unavailable for dividends.
 
The SC Realty line of credit agreement provides for loans of up to $50,000,000
to Security Capital. Any unpaid principal amounts are due thirty days after
written notice from SC Realty. Interest on unpaid principal amounts is payable
monthly at the rate per annum equal to the average interest rate paid by SC
Realty under the terms of the credit agreement. If SC Realty had no borrowings
outstanding under the credit agreement, then interest would be computed using
the "base rate" (defined as the higher of the Wells Fargo prime rate or the
Federal Funds Rate plus .50%). At December 31, 1996 and 1995, Security
Capital's loans payable to SC Realty amounted to $0 and $16,408,000,
respectively. Interest expense on these loans during 1996 and 1995 was
approximately $369,000 and $293,000, respectively, and is included in general,
administrative and other expenses in the accompanying condensed Statements of
Operations.
 
2. INCOME TAXES
 
Security Capital files a consolidated Federal income tax return which includes
SC Realty and the Services Division companies. At December 31, 1996 Security
Capital's consolidated net operating loss ("NOL") carryforwards amounted to
approximately $61,000,000. The deferred tax asset applicable to this NOL
carryforward is entirely offset by a valuation allowance. In 1996, a deferred
tax liability was recorded by SC Realty applicable to its equity method
investments. Accordingly, Security Capital's equity in earnings of SC Realty
for 1996 has been reduced by deferred income tax expense of $30,872,000.

                    REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
 
The Board of Directors and Shareholders of
Security Capital Group Incorporated:
 
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Security Capital
Group Incorporated and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1994, and the related
consolidated statements of operations, shareholders' equity and cash flows for
the year then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the
Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements 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 financial statements are free of
material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. 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.
 
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Security Capital
Group Incorporated and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 1994, and the results of
their operations and their cash flows for the year then ended in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles.

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
                               DECEMBER 31, 1994
 
1. GENERAL
 
Organization and Recent Merger:
A merger of Security Capital Group Incorporated ("GROUP") with and into
Security Capital Realty Incorporated ("REALTY") was approved by GROUP and
REALTY shareholders during the fourth quarter of 1994. The merger was effective
on January 1, 1995.
 
The merged entity ("Security Capital") is a private real estate company which
combines GROUP's and REALTY's two complementary businesses. The merged entity
owns controlling positions in three highly focused, fully integrated real
estate operating companies. The new entity also includes the Services Division,
which owns REIT Management and Property Management companies that direct these
operating businesses. The Services Division provides strategic guidance,
research, investment analysis, acquisition and development services, asset
management, property management, capital markets services and legal and
accounting services.
 
In August 1994, GROUP declared a dividend of .7242 shares to its stockholders.
The stock dividend was paid on August 22, 1994 to holders of record on August
12, 1994.
 
In the merger, each share of GROUP's outstanding stock was exchanged for 1.22
shares of REALTY stock. Also, each $1,000 principal amount of GROUP's 8.5%
convertible subordinated debentures was exchanged for $1,000 principal amount
of REALTY's convertible subordinated debentures due June 30, 2014 (the "2014
Convertible Debentures") plus 1.147 shares of REALTY stock (equaling 1.22
REALTY shares, on a fully converted basis, for each GROUP share into which the
GROUP debentures were convertible).
 
Each holder of an unexpired option or warrant to purchase GROUP stock or
debentures automatically received the right to exercise such option or warrant,
as the case may be (subject to the vesting provisions thereof and at the same
aggregate exercise price), for the securities of REALTY the holder could have
received pursuant to the merger had such option or warrant been exercised
immediately prior to the merger.
 
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
Principles of Financial Presentation:
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
GROUP and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts
and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
 
Depreciation:
Depreciation of furniture and equipment is computed over the estimated useful
lives (generally 3 to 10 years) of the depreciable property on a straight-line
basis.
 
Goodwill:
Goodwill results from acquisitions of financial services companies and
represents acquisition costs in excess of net assets of the businesses
acquired. Goodwill, aggregating $12,540,111 at December 31, 1994, is included
in other assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and is being
amortized on a straight-line basis over 15-20 years. Accumulated amortization
at December 31, 1994 was $723,806.
 
Cash and Cash Equivalents:
Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash in bank accounts and investments in
money market funds.
 
3. SERVICES DIVISION
 
GROUP's Services Division owns REIT Management (defined below) and Property
Management companies which direct the operations and provide services to the
highly focused, fully integrated real estate operating companies REALTY owns.

             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
 
Under the terms of separate agreements, GROUP's financial services subsidiaries
manage the operations of separate affiliated REITs ("REIT Managers") and
provide property management services to those REITs ("Property Managers"). Each
REIT Manager is paid a REIT Management fee based on a percentage of the REIT's
pre-management fee cash flow, after deducting regularly scheduled and assumed
mortgage principal payments, as defined in the REIT management agreements. The
fee is generally 16% of cash flow for operating REITs. The fee was 4% of cash
flow with respect to REALTY, except with respect to REALTY's cash flow from
affiliates in which it owns 90% or more of the common stock, as to which no fee
was paid by REALTY. The REIT and Property Management Agreements are generally
one year in term, renewable annually by the affiliated REIT and cancelable upon
sixty days' notice. Property management fees are at market rates and are paid
separately to GROUP's property management subsidiaries.
 
REIT and property management fees for the year ended December 31, 1994 were
earned from the following sources:

8. CONVERTIBLE SUBORDINATED DEBENTURES
 
The debentures bear interest at the rate of 8.5% per annum. GROUP may defer
annually interest at the rate of 4.5%, which is payable at the maturity of the
debentures (or earlier if the Board so directs). The balance of the interest
amount (4%) is payable to the extent of the net cash flow of GROUP and may be
deferred until payable out of net cash flow. Any amounts deferred accrue
interest at the rate of 8.5%. On January 1, 1995 all 8.5% convertible
subordinated debentures were exchanged for REALTY 2014 Convertible Debentures
and shares of REALTY stock (see Notes 1 and 6). In conjunction with the merger
with REALTY (see Note 1), all current and deferred accrued interest, amounting
to $8,284,407, was paid on December 31, 1994.
 
On March 31, 1994 GROUP issued $9,833,470 principal amount of 8.5% convertible
subordinated debentures, pursuant to a rights offering to existing
shareholders.
 
9. INCOME TAXES
 
GROUP has no significant deferred tax assets or deferred tax liabilities other
than its net operating loss carryforwards incurred from inception through
December 31, 1994. No tax benefits applicable to such operating losses have
been recognized, since GROUP would be unable to carry the operating loss back
to prior periods for federal income tax purposes. GROUP has net operating loss
carryforwards of approximately $18,310,000 at December 31, 1994. If not
previously utilized, the loss carryforwards will expire beginning 2005 through
2009. Subsequent to the merger (see Note 1), utilization of existing net
operating loss carryforwards may be limited by IRC Section 382 (limitation on
net operating loss carryforwards following ownership change) and the Separate
Return Limitation Year ("SRLY") rules.
 
10. SHARE OPTION PLAN
 
GROUP's Board of Directors has approved stock option plans and warrants for
officers and directors. The plans permit options to be granted to directors and
non-director employees to acquire units of Class B Common Non-voting Stock and
8.5% convertible subordinated debentures due 2006.
 
The securities reserved for options and warrant grants and the options and
warrants granted are summarized as follows:

</TABLE>
 
Due to the stock dividend, the option and warrant shares have been increased by
 .7242 (see Note 1). All options and warrants had exercise prices of $580 per
share (adjusted to $475 per Security Capital share in the GROUP/REALTY merger)
for the common stock and par for the debentures and must be exercised in units
of both common stock and debentures.
 
Options granted to directors are one-half vested, with the balance to be fully
vested on January 1, 1996. These options expire December 31, 2002. Of the
options granted to employees, options for 2,664 shares and $3,785,503 of
debentures are fully vested and expire January 1, 1997. The remaining employee
options vest over a period from January 1, 1996 to December 31, 2002, and
expire December 31, 2002. Under the 1995 Option Plan, 1,311 shares and $993,367
of debentures were granted to employees. The 1995 Option Plan is subject to
shareholder approval. If shareholder approval is not received, options will
convert to "phantom" options. If that conversion occurs, on the option's
expiration date the option holder will receive cash equal to the net value of
the option.

11. BUSINESS ACQUISITIONS
 
On May 12, 1994, GROUP entered into an asset purchase agreement with Laing
Properties, Incorporated and Laing Management Company. The total purchase price
was $6,000,000 cash and the entire amount was recorded as goodwill. The
transaction occurred simultaneously with Security Capital Atlantic
Incorporated's acquisition of $336 million of multifamily real estate
properties. A subsidiary of GROUP is managing these properties.
 
On October 28, 1994, subsidiary of GROUP entered into an asset purchase
agreement with The Krauss/Schwartz Company. The total purchase price was
$1,500,000 cash and the entire amount was recorded as goodwill. The transaction
occurred simultaneously with Security Capital Industrial Trust's acquisition of

by a subsidiary of GROUP.
 
In a series of transactions completed in January 1994, GROUP acquired all the
outstanding stock of WilsonSchanzer, Inc., a multifamily property management
company, and renamed it SCG Realty Services Incorporated ("REALTY SERVICES").
As part of the consideration, GROUP issued a $250,000 note payable and a three-
year option to purchase Class B common stock and debentures for an exercise
price of $270,000. The note payable bears interest at Texas Commerce Bank prime
rate plus 1/4% and is exchangeable for stock of REALTY. GROUP also acquired the
assignment of rights under a management agreement from the selling shareholders
for $560,000, payable in four equal, annual installments expiring January 31,
1997.
 
Goodwill applicable to these transactions is being amortized on a straight-line
basis over 15-20 years (see Note 2).

                      INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REVIEW REPORT
 
The Board of Trustees and Shareholders
SECURITY CAPITAL PACIFIC TRUST:
 
We have reviewed the accompanying condensed balance sheet of SECURITY CAPITAL
PACIFIC TRUST as of June 30, 1997, the related condensed statements of earnings
for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 1997 and 1996, the statement
of shareholders' equity for the six-month period ended June 30, 1997, and the
statements of cash flows for the six-month periods ended June 30, 1997 and
1996. These condensed financial statements are the responsibility of the
Trust's management.
 
We conducted our review in accordance with standards established by the
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A review of interim
financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures to
financial data and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and
accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted
in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, the objective of
which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken
as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.
 
Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should
be made to the condensed financial statements referred to above for them to be
in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
 
We have previously audited, in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards, the balance sheet of SECURITY CAPITAL PACIFIC TRUST as of December
31, 1996, and the related statements of earnings, shareholders' equity, and
cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein); and in our report
dated January 29, 1997, except as to Note 13, which is as of March 10, 1997, we
expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements. In our opinion,
the information set forth in the accompanying condensed balance sheet as of
December 31, 1996 is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to
the balance sheet from which it has been derived.

                             JUNE 30, 1997 AND 1996
                                  (UNAUDITED)
 
(1) GENERAL
 
The condensed financial statements of SECURITY CAPITAL PACIFIC TRUST ("PTR")
are unaudited and certain information and footnote disclosures normally
included in financial statements have been omitted. While management of PTR
believes that the disclosures presented are adequate, these interim financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and
notes included in PTR's 1996 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
 
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited financial statements
contain all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of PTR's financial
statements for the interim periods presented. The results of operations for the
three and six month periods ended June 30, 1997 and 1996 are not necessarily
indicative of the results to be expected for the entire year.
 
The accounts of PTR and its majority-owned subsidiaries are consolidated in the
accompanying condensed financial statements. All significant intercompany
accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
 
The preparation of these financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles required management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent liabilities at the dates of the financial statements
and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods.
Actual amounts realized or paid could differ from those estimates.
 
Reclassifications
Certain of the 1996 amounts have been reclassified to conform to the 1997
presentation.
 
Per Share Data
Primary earnings per share is computed based on the weighted average number of
common shares of beneficial interest, par value $1.00 per share ("Common
Share(s)"), outstanding. Fully diluted earnings per Common Share is calculated
from the weighted average Common Shares outstanding plus the Common Shares that
would be outstanding assuming conversion of the weighted average number of
outstanding cumulative convertible Series A Preferred Shares of Beneficial
Interest, par value $1.00 per share ("Series A Preferred Shares"), outstanding
Trustee options and certain warrants exercisable by third parties. For purposes
of the fully diluted earnings per share calculation, dividends on the Series A
Preferred Shares are added back to net earnings attributable to Common Shares.
Primary earnings per share and fully diluted earnings per share were
approximately the same for the three and six months ended June 30, 1996.
 
PTR will adopt Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 128,
Earnings per Share, which changes the method used to compute earnings per
share, in the fourth quarter of 1997. The impact of SFAS No. 128 on the
calculation of PTR's earnings per share is not expected to be material.

At June 30, 1997, PTR had contingent contracts or letters of intent, subject to
PTR's final due diligence and approval of all entitlements, to acquire land for
the development of an estimated 6,602 multifamily units with an aggregate
estimated development cost of approximately $612.7 million. At the same date,
PTR also had contingent contracts or letters of intent, subject to final due
diligence, for the acquisition of 328 additional operating multifamily units
with a total expected investment of $17.5 million, including planned
renovations.
 
At June 30, 1997, PTR had unfunded development commitments for developments
under construction of $180.4 million.

Gains and Provision for Possible Loss on Investments
Each year, REIT Management formulates operating and capital plans based on an
ongoing active review of PTR's portfolio. Based in part upon the market
research provided by Security Capital Real Estate Research Group Incorporated,
and in an effort to optimize its portfolio composition, PTR may from time to
time seek to dispose of assets that in management's view no longer meet PTR's
long-term investment objectives. The proceeds from these selected dispositions
are redeployed, typically through tax-deferred exchanges, into assets that in
PTR's view offer better long-term cash flow growth prospects. As a result of
this asset optimization strategy, PTR disposed of 23 multifamily communities,
one industrial building and two parcels of land during the six months ended
June 30, 1997, representing gross proceeds of $249.8 million, and disposed of
six multifamily communities, one parcel of land and one industrial building
during the six months ended June 30, 1996, representing gross proceeds of $87.8
million. As of June 30, 1997, PTR held a portion of the 1997 disposition
proceeds aggregating $19.7 million in an interest bearing escrow account,
pending acquisition of other multifamily communities to complete the tax-
deferred exchange. For federal income tax purposes, the majority of the 1997
and 1996 dispositions were structured as tax-deferred exchanges which deferred
gain recognition. For financial reporting purposes, however, the transactions
qualified for profit recognition and aggregate gains of $37.2 million and $8.1
million were recorded for the six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996,
respectively.
 
As part of PTR's asset optimization strategy, six multifamily communities, five
parcels of land and one industrial building were held for disposition as of
June 30, 1997. The aggregate carrying value of properties held for disposition
was approximately $79 million at June 30, 1997. Each community's carrying value
is less than or equal to its estimated fair market value, net of estimated
costs to sell. Such communities are not depreciated during the period for which
they are determined to be held for disposition. Subject to normal closing
risks, PTR expects to complete the disposition of all communities during 1997
and early 1998 and redeploy the net proceeds from such dispositions, where
appropriate, through tax-deferred exchanges into the acquisition of multifamily
communities. The property level earnings, after interest and depreciation, from
communities held for disposition at June 30, 1997 which are included in PTR's
earnings from operations for the six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996 were
$3.6 million and $3.5 million, respectively.
 
(3) HOMESTEAD NOTES
 
In addition to multifamily investment activity, PTR had developed and operated
extended-stay lodging facilities under the Homestead Village name since 1992.
On October 17, 1996, PTR contributed its Homestead Village properties to
Homestead Village Incorporated ("Homestead"), a new publicly-traded company, in
exchange for certain Homestead securities. As of the contribution date, the
Homestead Village properties constituted approximately 7.1% of PTR's total
assets, at cost. The Homestead Village properties generated approximately 8.1%
of PTR's net operating income (rental revenues less rental expenses, real
estate taxes and property management fees) for the six months ended June 30,
1996.
 
During the six month period ended June 30, 1997, PTR funded an additional $41.3
million under its $198.8 million commitment to provide development funding to
Homestead in the form of convertible mortgage notes ("Homestead Notes"),
resulting in a total amount funded of $142.4 million as of June 30, 1997.
 
Following is a reconciliation of the Homestead Notes' components to the amount
reflected in the accompanying Balance Sheet (in thousands):

The Homestead Notes are convertible into Homestead common stock on the basis of
one share of Homestead common stock for every $11.50 of principal face amount
outstanding. Accordingly, fair value was calculated based upon the conversion
value of the Homestead Notes using the trading price of Homestead common stock
at June 30, 1997 of $17.875. The fair value adjustment is recognized as an
unrealized gain in shareholders' equity.
 
PTR expects to complete the funding of the remaining $56.4 million under its
funding commitment in 1997 and early 1998.
 
(4) BORROWINGS
 
Credit Facilities
PTR has a $350 million unsecured revolving line of credit with Texas Commerce
Bank, National Association ("TCB"), as agent for a group of financial
institutions (collectively, the "Lenders"). The line matures in August 1999 and
may be extended annually for an additional year with the approval of the
Lenders. The line of credit bears interest at the greater of prime (8.5% at
June 30, 1997) or the federal funds rate plus 0.50%, or at PTR's option, LIBOR
(5.6875% at June 30, 1997) plus 1.125% (6.8125% at June 30, 1997), which spread
was reduced from 1.125% to 0.75% effective August 13, 1997. The spread over
LIBOR can vary from LIBOR plus 0.50% to LIBOR plus 1.50% based upon the rating
of PTR's long-term unsecured senior notes ("Long-Term Debt"). Additionally,
there is a commitment fee on the average unfunded line of credit balance. The
commitment fee was $114,000 and $218,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1997
and 1996, respectively.
 
A summary of PTR's line of credit borrowings is as follows (dollars in

each month during the term. Interest is payable monthly at an annual rate of

General
PTR's debt instruments generally contain certain covenants common to the type
of facility or borrowing, including financial covenants establishing minimum
debt service coverage ratios and maximum leverage ratios. PTR was in compliance
with all covenants pertaining to its debt instruments at June 30, 1997.
 
Interest paid on all borrowings for the six months ended June 30, 1997 was
$26.0 million, net of $8.8 million of interest capitalized during construction.
Interest paid on all borrowings for the six months ended June 30, 1996 was $9.4
million, net of $7.5 million of interest capitalized during construction.
 
Amortization of loan costs included in interest expense for the six months
ended June 30, 1997 and 1996 was $1,513,000 and $827,000 respectively.

              NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
 
 
(5) CASH DISTRIBUTIONS
 
PTR paid first and second quarter 1997 distributions of $0.325 per Common Share
on February 20 and May 29, 1997. On July 21, 1997 the Board of Trustees (the
"Board") declared a cash distribution of $0.325 per Common Share, payable on
August 27, 1997, to shareholders of record on August 13, 1997. On March 31 and
June 30, 1997, PTR paid quarterly dividends of $0.4377425 per cumulative
convertible Series A Preferred Share and $0.5625 per cumulative redeemable
Series B Preferred Share.
 
(6) SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY
 
On March 27, 1997, PTR filed a $300 million shelf registration with the
Securities and Exchange Commission. These securities can be issued on an as-
needed basis, subject to PTR's ability to effect offerings on satisfactory
terms.
 
On June 4, 1997, PTR sold 2,500,000 Common Shares to Goldman, Sachs & Co. for
an aggregate purchase price of $54.5 million. The net proceeds of $54.3 million
(net of $150,000 of offering costs) were used to repay borrowings under PTR's
$350 million unsecured revolving line of credit and its short-term borrowing
agreement with TCB.
 
On August 6, 1997, PTR commenced a rights offering to subscribe for and
purchase 7,433,433 Common Shares at a price of $21 13/16 per share (the
"Subscription Price"). PTR's common shareholders of record on August 6, 1997
will receive a dividend of one right for each Common Share held. Seven rights
entitle the holder to purchase one Common Share at the Subscription Price. The
rights are transferable and will expire on September 9, 1997. The offering is
designed to allow PTR common shareholders (other than Security Capital) the
opportunity to maintain their relative ownership in PTR by purchasing
additional Common Shares at a price which is below the price at which Security
Capital is receiving Common Shares in the proposed merger described in note 7.
The funds from the rights offering will be used to repay borrowings under
certain credit facilities of PTR.
 
After giving effect to the rights offering described above, assuming such
offering is fully subscribed, PTR will have approximately $203.3 million in
shelf-registered securities available for issuance.
 
(7) PROPOSED MERGER TRANSACTION
 
Effective March 1, 1991, PTR entered into a REIT Management agreement with
Security Capital Pacific Incorporated (the "REIT Manager"), to provide REIT
Management services to PTR. The REIT Manager is a subsidiary of Security
Capital Group Incorporated ("Security Capital").
 
SCG Realty Services Incorporated ("SCG Realty Services"), a wholly-owned
subsidiary of Security Capital, managed 94.1% and 83.9% (based on total
expected investment) of PTR's operating multifamily communities as of June 30,
1997 and 1996, respectively. Rates for services performed by SCG Realty
Services are subject to annual approval by PTR's independent Trustees (who
receive an annual review from an independent third party). Management believes
that such rates are consistent with those prevailing in the markets in which
PTR operates.
 
On August 5, 1997, the Securities and Exchange Commission declared effective a
registration statement filed by Security Capital relating to warrants to
purchase Class B common stock of Security Capital, and containing PTR's proxy
statement relating to a proposed merger transaction whereby PTR would acquire
the operations and businesses of the REIT Manager and SCG Realty Services
valued at approximately $75.8 million in exchange for Common Shares. The $75.8
million value was based on a three-year discounted analysis of net operating
income prepared by Security Capital and revised after negotiation with a
special committee comprised of independent Trustees (the "Special Committee").
The number of Common Shares issuable to Security Capital was determined using a
per Common Share price of $23.0125 (the average market price of Common Shares
over the five-day period prior to the August 6, 1997 record date for
determining PTR's shareholders entitled to vote on the proposed merger). As a
result of the transaction, PTR would become an internally managed REIT and
Security Capital would remain PTR's largest shareholder (34% ownership at
August 6, 1997). The Board approved the proposed merger transaction based on
the recommendation of the Special Committee. The proposed merger transaction
requires the approval of a two-thirds majority of PTR's outstanding Common
Shares. PTR's proxy statement was mailed to

              NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONCLUDED)
 
PTR's common shareholders and a meeting of PTR's common shareholders to vote on
the proposed merger is scheduled to be held on September 8, 1997. Assuming that
the market value of the Common Shares issued to Security Capital on the
transaction date is $75.8 million, approximately $3.1 million will be allocated
to the net tangible assets acquired and the $72.7 million difference will be
accounted for as costs incurred in acquiring the management companies from a
related party since the management companies do not qualify as "businesses" for
purposes of applying APB Opinion No. 16, "Business Combinations". Upon
consummation of the merger, this expense will be recorded as an operating
expense on PTR's statement of earnings.
 
On June 10, 1997, the Board extended the term of the REIT Management Agreement
through the earlier of (i) the date of the consummation of the proposed merger
described above, or (ii) the regularly scheduled Board meeting in the fourth
quarter of 1997.
 
In addition, subject to and after the closing of the proposed merger and after
the closing of the rights offering described in note 6, Security Capital will
issue warrants pro rata to holders of PTR's Common Shares and Series A
Preferred Shares (other than Security Capital), to acquire shares of Class B
common stock of Security Capital having an aggregate subscription price at the
time of issuance of approximately $102 million. The number of shares of Class B
common stock subject to the warrants will be based on the closing price of such
shares on the date the warrants are issued to a warrant distribution agent for
subsequent distribution to the holders of Common Shares and Series A Preferred
Shares. The warrants will have a term of one year. Security Capital is issuing
the warrants to induce PTR common shareholders to vote in favor of the proposed
merger and to raise additional equity capital at a relatively low cost in
addition to other benefits.

The Board of Trustees and Shareholders
SECURITY CAPITAL PACIFIC TRUST:
 
We have audited the balance sheets of SECURITY CAPITAL PACIFIC TRUST as of
December 31, 1996 and 1995 and the related statements of earnings,
shareholders' equity and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year
period ending December 31, 1996. In connection with our audits of the financial
statements, we also have audited Schedule III, Real Estate and Accumulated
Depreciation. These financial statements and financial statement schedule are
the responsibility of the Trust's management. Our responsibility is to express
an opinion on these financial statements and financial statement schedule based
on our audits.
 
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. 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 audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.
 
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of SECURITY CAPITAL PACIFIC TRUST
as of December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the results of its operations and its
cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31,
1996, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. Also in our
opinion, the related financial statement schedule, when considered in relation
to the basic financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly, in all
material respects, the information set forth therein.

(1) DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
Business
Security Capital Pacific Trust (New York Stock Exchange Symbol: "PTR") is an
equity real estate investment trust ("REIT") organized in 1963 under the laws
of the state of Maryland, which primarily owns, develops, acquires and operates
income-producing multifamily communities in the western United States.
 
Principles of Financial Presentation
The accounts of PTR and its majority-owned subsidiaries are consolidated in the
accompanying financial statements. All significant intercompany accounts and
transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
 
The preparation of these financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles required management to make estimates and
assumptions that affected the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent liabilities at the dates of the financial statements
and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods.
Actual amounts realized or paid could differ from those estimates.
 
Cash and Cash Equivalents
PTR considers all cash on hand, demand deposits with financial institutions and
short-term, highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months
or less to be cash equivalents.
 
Real Estate and Depreciation
Real estate is carried at depreciated cost, which is not in excess of estimated
fair market value.
 
Costs directly related to the acquisition (including costs related to certain
planned renovations identified during PTR's pre-acquisition due diligence),
development or improvement of real estate, and certain indirect costs related
to developments are capitalized. Costs incurred in connection with the pursuit
of unsuccessful acquisitions or developments are expensed at the time the
pursuit is abandoned.
 
Depreciation is computed over the expected useful lives of depreciable property
on a straight-line basis. Real estate assets are depreciated principally over
the following useful lives:
 
<TABLE>
             <S>                         <C>
             Buildings and improvements  20-40 years
             Furnishings and other        2-10 years
</TABLE>
 
Make-Ready and Repairs and Maintenance
Make-ready (expenditures incurred in preparing a vacant multifamily unit for
the next tenant) and repairs and maintenance expenditures, other than
acquisition-related renovation costs identified during PTR's pre-acquisition
due diligence, are expensed as incurred. PTR generally expenses carpet and
appliance repairs and replacements after any planned acquisition-related
renovation expenditures for such items have been incurred.
 
Interest
During 1996, 1995 and 1994, the total interest paid in cash on all outstanding
debt, net of interest capitalized, was $23,631,000, $17,674,000 and
$11,949,000, respectively.
 
PTR capitalizes interest incurred during the construction period as part of the
cost of multifamily communities under development. Interest capitalized during
1996, 1995 and 1994 aggregated $16,941,000, $11,741,000 and $6,029,000,
respectively.
 
Cost of Raising Capital
Costs incurred in connection with the issuance of equity securities are
deducted from shareholders' equity. Costs incurred in connection with the
issuance or renewal of debt are capitalized as other assets and amortized over
the term of the related loan or the renewal period. Amortization of loan costs
included in interest expense for 1996, 1995 and 1994 was $2,233,000, $1,543,000
and $1,903,000, respectively.

                   NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
 
 
Interest Rate Contracts
From time to time, PTR utilizes derivative financial instruments as hedges in
anticipation of future debt offerings to manage well-defined interest rate
risk. Unrealized changes in the market value of interest rate contracts are
deferred until the hedged transaction is consummated and realized gains and
losses resulting from changes in the market value of these contracts are
deferred and amortized into interest expense over the life of the related debt
issuance.
 
Revenue and Gain Recognition
PTR leases its multifamily units under operating leases with terms of generally
less than one year. Rental income is recognized according to the terms of the
underlying leases which approximates the revenue which would be recognized if
spread evenly over the lease term.
 
Gains on sales of real estate are recorded when the recognition criteria set
forth by generally accepted accounting principles have been met.
 
Rental Expenses
Rental expenses shown on the accompanying Statement of Earnings include costs
of on-site personnel, utilities, repairs and maintenance, make-ready, property
insurance, marketing, landscaping, property management fees paid to
unaffiliated companies, and other on-site administrative costs.
 
Federal Income Taxes
PTR has made an election to be taxed as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code
of 1986, as amended. PTR believes it qualifies as a REIT and, accordingly, no
provisions have been made for federal income taxes in the accompanying
financial statements.
 
Per Share Data
Primary earnings per share is computed based on the weighted-average number of
common shares of beneficial interest, par value $1.00 per share ("Common
Shares"), outstanding. Fully diluted earnings per Common Share is calculated
from the weighted-average Common Shares outstanding plus the Common Shares that
would be outstanding assuming conversion of all outstanding cumulative
convertible Series A Preferred Shares of Beneficial Interest, par value $1.00
per share ("Series A Preferred Shares"), outstanding Trustee options and
certain warrants exercisable by third parties (Note 8). For purposes of the
fully diluted earnings per share calculation, dividends on the Series A
Preferred Shares are added back to net earnings attributable to Common Shares.
Primary earnings per share and fully diluted earnings per share were
approximately the same for each of the three years presented, although there
was reportable dilution for the third quarter of 1996. See Note 10.
 
Reclassifications
Certain of the 1995 and 1994 amounts have been reclassified to conform to the
1996 presentation.
 
(2) HOMESTEAD TRANSACTION
 
On October 17, 1996, PTR, Security Capital Atlantic Incorporated ("ATLANTIC"),
Security Capital Group Incorporated ("Security Capital") and Homestead Village
Incorporated ("Homestead") consummated a merger agreement pursuant to which
each of PTR, ATLANTIC and Security Capital contributed, through a series of
merger transactions, all of their respective assets related to their Homestead
Village(R) extended-stay lodging assets to Homestead, a newly formed company.
In connection with the transaction, PTR and ATLANTIC entered into funding
commitment agreements to finance the development of certain Homestead
properties.
 
PTR contributed 54 Homestead Village(R) properties (or the rights to acquire
such properties) ("Homestead Assets") to Homestead in exchange for 9,485,727
shares of Homestead common stock. Simultaneously, PTR received 6,363,789
warrants to acquire additional shares of Homestead common stock at a price of
$10.00 per share in exchange for entering into a funding commitment agreement.
In this agreement PTR agreed to provide up to $198.8 million in secured
financing for developments to Homestead in exchange for up to $221.3 million in
convertible mortgage notes ("Homestead Notes"), including those existing on the
properties at the transaction date. See Note 5 for information on the Homestead
Notes.

                         SECURITY CAPITAL PACIFIC TRUST
 
                   NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
 
 
Upon full funding of the Homestead Notes and after giving effect to the
Homestead Distribution described below, PTR's conversion rights would represent
a 34.7% ownership interest in Homestead. This ownership interest assumes no
further equity offerings by Homestead, conversion of all Homestead Notes by PTR
and ATLANTIC and exercise of all outstanding warrants.
 
PTR's Homestead common stock and warrants to acquire additional common stock
were distributed on November 12, 1996 to holders of record of Common Shares on
October 29, 1996 (the "Homestead Distribution"). Each PTR shareholder received
0.125694 shares of Homestead common stock and 0.084326 warrants per PTR Common
Share plus cash for fractional shares and warrants.
 
As of October 17, 1996, the Homestead Assets owned by PTR constituted 7.1% of
PTR's total assets, and PTR's investment in its wholly owned Homestead Village
subsidiaries, including intercompany advances, constituted less than 1% of
PTR's total assets. PTR's Homestead Village(R) operations accounted for
approximately 8.2% of PTR's total earnings from operations from January 1, 1996
to October 17, 1996.
 
The Homestead transaction had the following impact on PTR's balance sheet as of
October 17, 1996, after giving effect to the Homestead Distribution (in
thousands):

(3) 1995 MERGER OF SECURITY CAPITAL PACIFIC INCORPORATED AND CONCURRENT
SUBSCRIPTION OFFERING
 
On March 23, 1995, PTR consummated a merger (the "Merger") of Security Capital
Pacific Incorporated ("PACIFIC"), a Maryland corporation, with and into PTR.
PACIFIC was a private multifamily REIT controlled by Security Capital, PTR's
principal shareholder. PACIFIC's portfolio consisted primarily of 17 operating
multifamily communities aggregating 5,579 units. In the Merger, each
outstanding share of PACIFIC common stock was converted into the right to
receive 0.611 Common Shares. As a result, 8,468,460 of PTR's Common Shares
valued at $138.7 million ($16.375 per share) were issued in the Merger in
exchange for all of the outstanding shares of PACIFIC common stock. In
addition, PTR assumed $51.9 million on PACIFIC's line of credit and $54.4
million of mortgage debt. The Merger has been accounted for as a purchase and,
accordingly, the results of operations of PACIFIC have been included in PTR's
financial statements from March 23, 1995.

                   NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
 
The following summarized pro forma (unaudited) information assumes the Merger
occurred on January 1, 1994, and represents the combined historical operating
results of PTR and PACIFIC for the respective pro forma periods. No material
pro forma adjustments to revenue and expenses were required. The weighted-
average Common Shares outstanding have been adjusted to reflect the Merger
conversion rate (0.611 Common Shares for each share of PACIFIC common stock).
The pro forma financial information does not necessarily reflect the results of
operations that would have occurred had PACIFIC and PTR constituted a single
entity during such periods (in thousands, except per share amounts).

Concurrently with the consummation of the Merger, PTR completed a subscription
offering of 13.2 million Common Shares pursuant to which PTR received net
proceeds of $216.3 million. The subscription offering was designed to allow
shareholders of PTR to purchase Common Shares at the same price at which
PACIFIC shareholders acquired Common Shares in the Merger ($16.375 per Common
Share). Security Capital purchased $50 million (3.1 million Common Shares at
$16.375 per Common Share) in the subscription offering pursuant to the
oversubscription privilege.

At January 29, 1997, PTR had contingent contracts or letters of intent, subject
to PTR's final due diligence, to acquire land for the near term development of
an estimated 3,507 multifamily units with an aggregate estimated development
cost of $264.5 million. At the same date, PTR also had contingent contracts or
letters of intent, subject to final due diligence, for the acquisition of 964
additional operating multifamily units with a total expected investment of
$77.2 million, including planned renovations.
 
At January 29, 1997, PTR had unfunded development commitments for developments
under construction of $158.8 million.
 
Pre-Sale Agreements and Development Subsidiary
To enhance its flexibility in developing and acquiring multifamily communities
which meet PTR's investment criteria, PTR has and will enter into presale
agreements with third-party owner/developers to acquire communities developed
by such owner/developers. PTR has and will fund such developments through
mortgage loans on the communities. For financial reporting purposes, these
transactions are recorded as real estate developments rather than mortgage
loans due to PTR's commitment to acquire these properties upon completion.
 
In addition, to provide greater flexibility for the use of land acquired for
development and to facilitate disposition of excess parcels, PTR has and will
make mortgage loans to PTR Development Services Incorporated ("PTR Development
Services") to purchase land for development. PTR may also fund developments of
multifamily communities by PTR Development Services where the particular
community or submarket does not meet PTR's objectives for long-term ownership
but presents an attractive investment opportunity. PTR owns all of the
preferred stock of PTR Development Services, which entitles PTR to
substantially all of the net operating cash flow (95%) of PTR Development
Services. An unaffiliated trust owns all of the common stock of PTR Development
Services. The common stock is entitled to receive the remaining 5% of net
operating cash flow.
 
As of December 31, 1996, the outstanding balance of development and mortgage
loans made by PTR to third-party owner/developers and PTR Development Services
aggregated $127.3 million and $18.8 million, respectively. The activities of
third-party owner/developers and PTR Development Services are consolidated with
PTR's activities and all intercompany transactions have been eliminated in
consolidation.

Gains and Provision for Loss on Real Estate and Investments
Each year, REIT Management formulates operating and capital plans based on an
ongoing active review of PTR's portfolio. Based in part upon the market
research provided by Security Capital Investment Research Incorporated and in
an effort to optimize its portfolio composition, PTR may from time to time seek
to dispose of assets that in management's view no longer meet PTR's long-term
investment objectives. The proceeds from these selected dispositions will be
redeployed, typically through tax-deferred exchanges, into assets that in PTR's
view offer better long-term cash flow growth prospects. As a result of this
asset optimization strategy, PTR disposed of 22 multifamily communities and one
industrial building during 1996, representing aggregate net proceeds of $291.1
million, and disposed of one multifamily property in the fourth quarter of
1995, representing net proceeds of $8.8 million. For federal income tax
purposes, the majority of the dispositions were structured as tax-deferred
exchanges which deferred gain recognition. For financial reporting purposes,
however, the transactions qualified for profit recognition and aggregate gains
of $37.5 million and $2.6 million were recorded for 1996 and 1995,
respectively.
 
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121, Accounting For The
Impairment Of Long-Lived Assets And For Long-Lived Assets To Be Disposed Of
("SFAS No. 121"), adopted by PTR effective January 1, 1996, establishes
accounting standards for the review of long-lived assets to be held and used
for impairment whenever the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.
SFAS No. 121 also requires that certain long-lived assets to be disposed of be
reported at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell, PTR
did not recognize any losses on the date it adopted SFAS No. 121.
 
As part of PTR's asset optimization strategy, 19 communities and two non-
multifamily properties were held for disposition as of December 31, 1996. The
aggregate carrying value of properties held for disposition was $178.9 million
at December 31, 1996. Each property's carrying value is less than or equal to
its estimated fair market value, net of estimated costs to sell. Such
properties are not depreciated during the period for which they are determined
to be held for disposition. Subject to normal closing risks, PTR expects to
complete the disposition of all properties during 1997 and redeploy the net
proceeds from such dispositions through tax-deferred exchanges into the
acquisition of multifamily communities. The earnings from operations for
properties held for dispositions which are included in PTR's earnings from
operations for 1996, 1995 and 1994 were $15.8 million, $15.3 million and $10.5
million, respectively.
 
PTR's other real estate investments are periodically evaluated for impairment
and provisions for possible losses are made if required. As a result of such
evaluation, PTR recorded a provision for possible loss of $220,000 and
$1,600,000 during 1995 and 1994, respectively, relating to a non-multifamily
investment which was subsequently sold in October 1995. Also, during 1995 it
was determined that PTR could potentially be liable for certain maintenance
items under the terms of a 1993 master lease agreement on a non-multifamily
property which resulted in the recording of an estimated provision for loss of
$200,000. The recording of a provision for loss has no impact on cash flow from
operating activities. As of December 31, 1996, PTR's real estate investments
were carried at depreciated cost, which is not in excess of estimated fair
market value.
 
(5) MORTGAGE NOTES RECEIVABLE
 
Homestead Convertible Mortgage Notes
In connection with the Homestead transaction described in Note 2 and pursuant
to fundings which have occurred under the funding commitment agreement, PTR
holds Homestead Notes. The Homestead Notes were created under a master facility
providing for aggregate fundings of up to $198.8 million in exchange for
Homestead Notes with a face amount of up to $221.3 million. Under the terms of
the funding commitment agreement, PTR receives approximately $1.00 in principal
amount of Homestead Notes for every $.90 funded (i.e., the Homestead Notes are
issued at a discount). The discount is amortized into interest income over the
term of the Homestead Notes using a method which approximates the effective
interest method. Maximum fundings are established for each individual
development project and specific liens are recorded to secure payment. The
Homestead Notes are cross-collateralized, which enables PTR to foreclose or
take possession of any one or more of the underlying properties upon the
occurrence of an event of default. The Homestead Notes require semi-annual
interest-only payments at 9%

per annum of the face amount of the Homestead Notes outstanding, are callable
at the option of Homestead after 5 years and mature on October 31, 2006.
 
The Homestead Notes are convertible into Homestead common stock after March 31,
1997 on the basis of one share of Homestead common stock for every $11.50 of
principal amount outstanding, subject to adjustment. The initial value
attributed to the conversion feature has been recorded as an additional
component of the Homestead Notes' balance and the corresponding discount is
being amortized into interest income over the term of the Homestead Notes using
a method which approximates the effective interest method. The difference
between the fair value of the Homestead Notes (assuming conversion), based upon
the trading price of Homestead's common stock on the American Stock Exchange at
December 31, 1996, ($18.00) and the amortized cost of the Homestead Notes is
reflected as an additional component of the Homestead Notes' balance and as an
unrealized holding gain in Shareholders' Equity.
 
As described in Note 2, PTR also received Homestead warrants in exchange for
entering into the funding commitment agreement. The warrants were distributed
to PTR shareholders with the Homestead common stock. The value associated with
the receipt of the Homestead warrants has been recorded as deferred revenue
which is included in accrued expenses and other liabilities in the accompanying
1996 Balance Sheet and is being amortized into interest income using a method
which approximates the effective interest method over the term of the Homestead
Notes.
 
The effective interest rate on the Homestead Notes as a percentage of the
"funded" balance, including amortization of discount and deferred revenue, is
approximately 12.4% per annum (10.7% excluding conversion feature and warrant-
related amortization).
 
Following is a reconciliation of the Homestead Notes' components described
above to the amount reflected in the accompanying 1996 Balance Sheet (in
thousands).

As of December 31, 1996, PTR had funded $101.2 million of its funding
commitment. This leaves a remaining commitment under the funding commitment
agreement of approximately $97.6 million, which will be provided to Homestead
to fund developments as needed on development properties contributed by PTR.

(6) BORROWINGS
 
Credit Facilities
PTR has a $350 million unsecured revolving line of credit with Texas Commerce
Bank, National Association ("TCB"), as agent for a group of financial
institutions (collectively, the "Lenders"). The line matures August 1998 and
may be extended annually for an additional year with the approval of the
Lenders. The line of credit bears interest at the greater of prime (8.25% at
December 31, 1996) or the federal funds rate plus 0.50% or at PTR's option,
LIBOR (5.50% at December 31, 1996) plus 1.125% (6.625% at December 31, 1996).
The spread over LIBOR can vary from LIBOR plus 0.75% to LIBOR plus 1.50% based
upon the rating of PTR's senior unsecured debt. Additionally, there is a
commitment fee on the average unfunded line of credit balance. The commitment
fee was $396,000, $502,000 and $224,000 for 1996, 1995 and 1994, respectively.
 
A summary of PTR's line of credit borrowings is as follows (dollars in

Long-Term Debt
As of December 31, 1996, PTR has issued a total of $580 million of long-term
unsecured senior notes ("Notes"), which bear interest at specified rates per
annum, payable semi-annually. Funds from such issuances were used primarily for
acquisition, development and renovation of multifamily communities and to repay
revolving credit balances incurred for such purposes. The following table

31, 1996.

(7) DISTRIBUTIONS
 
PTR's distribution strategy is to distribute what it believes is a conservative
percentage of cash flow while maintaining its status as a REIT which generally
requires annual distributions of at least 95% of PTR's taxable income.
 
PTR announces the following year's projected annual distribution level after
the Board's annual budget review and approval in December of each year. At its
December 10, 1996 Board meeting, the Board announced an increase in the annual
distribution level from $1.24 to $1.30 per Common Share and declared the first
quarter 1997 distribution of $0.325 per Common Share. The first quarter
distribution was paid on February 20, 1997 to shareholders of record on
February 7, 1997. The payment of distributions is subject to the discretion of
the Board and is dependent upon the financial condition and operating results
of PTR.
 
Pursuant to the terms of the Preferred Shares, PTR is restricted from declaring
or paying any distribution with respect to its Common Shares unless all
cumulative distributions with respect to the Preferred Shares have been paid
and sufficient funds have been set aside for Preferred Share distributions that
have been declared.
 
PTR made total cash distributions of $1.24 per Common Share in 1996, $1.15 per
Common Share in 1995 and $1.00 per Common Share in 1994. In addition, on
November 12, 1996, PTR distributed 0.125694 shares of Homestead common stock
and warrants to purchase 0.084326 shares of Homestead common stock per Common
Share in the Homestead Distribution to each holder of record of Common Shares
on October 29, 1996.
 
For federal income tax purposes, the following summarizes the taxability of
cash distributions paid on the Common Shares in 1995 and 1994 and the estimated
taxability for 1996:

The Homestead securities distributed by PTR to each holder of Common Shares in
the Homestead Distribution were valued at $2.16 per PTR Common Share for
federal income tax purposes, of which $1.06 was taxable as ordinary income,
$0.19 was taxable as a capital gain and $0.91 was treated as a return of
capital.
 
On July 21, 1994, in addition to the normal Common Share distributions paid,
PTR redeemed the shareholder purchase rights issued pursuant to the Rights
Agreement dated as of February 23, 1990, as amended. Pursuant to the
redemption, each holder of record at the close of business on July 21, 1994 was
entitled to receive $0.01 per shareholder purchase right. The redemption price
was paid on August 12, 1994 and was taxable as ordinary income for federal
income tax purposes.

Due to the increase in the conversion ratio (Note 8) resulting from the
Homestead Distribution to holders of Common Shares, holders of Series A
Preferred Shares were deemed to have received a distribution of $2.43 on
November 12, 1996 for federal income tax purposes. Of this amount, $1.19 was
taxable as ordinary income, $0.22 was taxable as a capital gain and $1.02 was
treated as a return of capital.
 
PTR's tax return for the year ended December 31, 1996 has not been filed, and
the taxability information for 1996 is based upon the best available data.
PTR's tax returns for prior years have not been examined by the Internal
Revenue Service and, therefore, the taxability of the dividends is subject to
change.
 
(8) SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY
 
Shares of Beneficial Interest
At December 31, 1996, 150,000,000 shares of beneficial interest, par value
$1.00 per share, were authorized. The Board is authorized to issue, from the
authorized but unissued shares of PTR, preferred shares in series and to
establish from time to time the number of preferred shares to be included in
such series and to fix the designation and any preferences, conversion and
other rights, voting powers, restrictions, limitations as to distributions,
qualifications and terms and conditions of redemption of the shares of each
series.
 
Series A Preferred Shares
The Series A Preferred Shares issued in November 1993 have a liquidation
preference of $25.00 per share for an aggregate liquidation preference at
December 31, 1996 of $162.4 million plus any accrued but unpaid distributions.
Holders of the Series A Preferred Shares are entitled only to limited voting
rights under certain conditions. During 1996, 2,705,000 of PTR's Series A
Preferred Shares were converted, at the option of the holders, into 3,294,000
Common Shares (an implied conversion ratio of 1.2178 Common Shares for each
Series A Preferred Share, which is a combination of the original conversion
ratio of 1.2162 and the adjusted ratio discussed below).
 
As a result of the Homestead Distribution, PTR adjusted the conversion price of
its Series A Preferred Shares, effective as of the opening of business on
October 30, 1996, from $20.556 to $18.561 per Common Share (a conversion ratio
of 1.3469 Common Shares for each Series A Preferred Share), as required by the
Articles Supplementary governing the Series A Preferred Shares. Distributions
on the Series A Preferred Shares are cumulative in an amount per share equal to
the greater of $1.75 per annum or the annualized quarterly PTR distribution
rate on the Common Shares into which the Series A Preferred Shares are
convertible. The Series A

<PAGE>
 
                         SECURITY CAPITAL PACIFIC TRUST
 
                   NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
 
Preferred Share dividends are payable quarterly in arrears on the last day of
March, June, September and December of each year. Based on the projected 1997
distribution level of $1.30 per Common Share, the projected 1997 dividend on
the Series A Preferred Shares is $1.751 per share. The Series A Preferred
Shares are redeemable at the option of PTR after November 30, 2003.
 
Series B Preferred Shares
The Series B Preferred Shares issued in May 1995 have a liquidation preference
of $25.00 per share for an aggregate liquidation preference of $105.0 million
plus any accrued but unpaid distributions. The net proceeds (after underwriting
commissions and other offering costs) to PTR from the sale of the Series B
Preferred Shares were $101.4 million. On and after May 24, 2000, the Series B
Preferred Shares may be redeemed for cash at the option of PTR, in whole or in
part, at a redemption price of $25.00 per share plus accrued and unpaid
distributions, if any, to the redemption date. The redemption price (other than
the portion thereof consisting of accrued and unpaid distributions) is payable
solely out of the sale proceeds of other capital shares of PTR, which may
include shares of other series of preferred shares. The holders of the Series B
Preferred Shares have no preemptive rights with respect to any shares of the
capital securities of PTR or any other securities of PTR convertible into or
carrying rights or options to purchase any such shares. The Series B Preferred
Shares have no stated maturity and are not subject to any sinking fund or other
obligation of PTR to redeem or retire the Series B Preferred Shares and are not
convertible into any other securities of PTR. In addition, holders of the
Series B Preferred Shares are entitled to receive, when and as declared by the
Board, out of funds legally available for the payment of distributions,
cumulative preferential cash distributions at the rate of 9% of the liquidation
preference per annum (equivalent to $2.25 per share). Such distributions are
cumulative from the date of original issue and are payable quarterly in arrears
on the last day of each March, June, September and December.
 
Series A Preferred Shares and Series B Preferred Shares are collectively
referred to as "Preferred Shares." The net proceeds from the sale of Preferred
Shares were used primarily for the acquisition, development and renovation of
multifamily communities, and to repay revolving credit balances incurred for
such purposes.
 
Both series of Preferred Shares rank on a parity as to distributions and
liquidation proceeds.
 
All dividends due and payable on Preferred Shares have been accrued and paid as
of the end of each fiscal year and, accordingly, are reflected in the
accompanying financial statements.
 
Option Plan
In January 1987, PTR adopted its Share Option Plan for Outside Trustees (the
"1987 Plan"). There are 200,000 Common Shares reserved for issuance upon
exercise of options which could have been granted to independent Trustees under
the 1987 Plan. All options granted are for a term of five years and are
exercisable in whole or in part. The exercise price of the options granted may
not be less than the fair market value on the date of grant. At December 31,
1996, there were 32,000 options for Common Shares outstanding and exercisable
under the 1987 Plan at exercise prices ranging from $10.625 to $21.50 per
Common Share. No further options may be granted under the 1987 Plan.
 
Outstanding Warrants
As a result of the Merger discussed in Note 3, warrants to acquire 140,530
Common Shares at an exercise price of $14.21 per share were outstanding as of
December 31, 1996. These warrants are subject to adjustment to prevent dilution
and expire on November 8, 1999.
 
Ownership Restrictions and Significant Shareholder
PTR's Restated Declaration of Trust and the Articles Supplementary governing
the Preferred Shares restrict beneficial ownership (or ownership generally
attributed to a person under the REIT tax rules) of PTR's outstanding shares by
a single person, or persons acting as a group, to 9.8% of the Common Shares and
25% of each series of Preferred Shares. The purpose of these provisions are to
assist in protecting and preserving PTR's REIT status and to protect the
interests of 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. For PTR to qualify as a REIT under the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, not more than 50% in value of its
outstanding capital shares
 
                                      F-97
<PAGE>
 
                         SECURITY CAPITAL PACIFIC TRUST
 
                   NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
 
may be owned by five or fewer individuals at any time during the last half of
PTR's taxable year. The provision permits five persons to acquire up to a
maximum of 9.8% each of the Common Shares, or an aggregate of 49% of the
outstanding Common Shares, and thus assists the Trustees in protecting and
preserving PTR's REIT status for tax purposes.
 
Common Shares owned by a person or group of persons in excess of the 9.8% limit
are subject to redemption by PTR. The provision does not apply where a majority
of the Board, in its sole and absolute discretion, waives such limit after
determining that the eligibility of PTR to qualify as a REIT for federal income
tax purposes will not be jeopardized or the disqualification of PTR as a REIT
is advantageous to the shareholders.
 
The Board has permitted Security Capital, the owner of the REIT Manager (see
Note 9), to acquire up to 49% of PTR's fully converted Common Shares. Security
Capital Group's ownership of Common Shares is attributed for tax purposes to
its shareholders. Security Capital Group owned 36.3% of PTR's total outstanding
Common Shares at December 31, 1996. Pursuant to an agreement between Security
Capital Group and PTR, Security Capital Group has agreed to acquire no more
than 49% of the fully converted Common Shares except pursuant to an all-cash
tender offer for all Common Shares held open for 90 days. Security Capital
Group would have no limitation on making a tender offer if an unrelated third
party commences such a tender offer.
 
Purchase Rights
In 1994, the Board authorized the distribution of one preferred share purchase
right (a "Purchase Right") for each Common Share outstanding at the close of
business on July 21, 1994. Holders of additional Common Shares issued after
July 21, 1994 and prior to the expiration of the Purchase Rights on July 21,
2004 will be entitled to one Purchase Right for each additional Common Share.
 
Each Purchase Right entitles the holder under certain circumstances to purchase
from PTR one one-hundredth of a share of a series of Junior Participating
Preferred Shares, par value $1.00 per share (the "Participating Preferred
Shares"), at a price of $60.00 per one-hundredth of a Participating Preferred
Share, subject to adjustment. Purchase Rights are exercisable when a person or
group of persons acquires beneficial ownership of 20% or more of the fully
converted Common Shares (49% in the case of Security Capital Group and certain
defined affiliates), commences or announces a tender offer or exchange offer
which would result in the beneficial ownership by a person or group of persons
of 25% or more of the outstanding Common Shares (49% in the case of Security
Capital Group and certain defined affiliates) or files or announces their
intention to file with any regulatory authority an application seeking approval
of any transaction which would result in the beneficial ownership by a person
of 25% or more of the outstanding Common Shares (49% in the case of Security
Capital Group and certain defined affiliates). Under certain circumstances,
each Purchase Right entitles the holder to purchase, at the Purchase Right's
then current exercise price, a number of Common Shares having a market value of
twice the Purchase Right's exercise price. The acquisition of PTR pursuant to
certain mergers or other business transactions would entitle each holder to
purchase, at the Purchase Right's then current exercise price, a number of the
acquiring company's common shares having a market value at that time equal to
twice the Purchase Right's exercise price. The Purchase Rights will expire in
July 2004 and are subject to redemption in whole, but not in part, at a price
of $0.01 per Purchase Right payable in cash, shares of PTR or any other form of
consideration determined by the Board.
 
Shelf Registration
On September 27, 1996, PTR filed a $300 million shelf registration statement
with the Securities and Exchange Commission. These securities can be issued in
the form of unsecured debt and preferred shares of beneficial interest on an
as-needed basis, subject to PTR's ability to effect an offering on satisfactory
terms. As of December 31, 1996, $170 million in securities were available to be
issued under this shelf registration.
 
(9) REIT MANAGEMENT AND PROPERTY MANAGEMENT AGREEMENTS
 
Effective March 1, 1991, PTR entered into a REIT management agreement (the
"REIT Management Agreement") with Security Capital Pacific Incorporated (the
"REIT Manager"), pursuant to which the REIT Manager assumed day-to-day
management of PTR. All officers of PTR are employees of the REIT Manager and
PTR currently has no employees. The REIT Manager provides both strategic and
day-to-day management services to PTR, including
 
                                      F-98
<PAGE>
 
                         SECURITY CAPITAL PACIFIC TRUST
 
                   NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
 
research, investment analysis, acquisition, development, dispositions, property
management, capital markets, legal, accounting and other administrative
services. The REIT Manager is a wholly owned subsidiary of Security Capital
Group (see Note 8).
 
The REIT Management Agreement requires PTR to pay a base annual fee of $855,000
plus 16% of cash flow as defined in the REIT Management Agreement in excess of
$4,837,000, payable monthly. In the REIT Management Agreement, cash flow is
calculated by reference to PTR's cash flow from operations plus (i) fees paid
to the REIT Manager, (ii) extraordinary expenses incurred at the request of the
independent Trustees of PTR and (iii) 33% of any interest paid by PTR on
convertible subordinated debentures (of which there has been none since
inception of the REIT Management Agreement); and after deducting (i) regularly
scheduled principal payments (excluding prepayments or balloon payments) for
debt with commercially reasonable amortization schedules, (ii) actual or
assumed principal and interest payments on long-term debt, (iii) interest
income received in connection with the Homestead Notes resulting from the
Homestead transaction discussed in Notes 2 and 5 and (iv) distributions
actually paid with respect to any nonconvertible preferred shares of beneficial
interest of PTR. The REIT Management Agreement provides that the long-term
unsecured debt described in Note 6 is treated as if it had regularly scheduled
principal and interest payments similar to a 20-year, level monthly payment,
fully amortizing mortgage, and the assumed principal and interest payments are
deducted from cash flow in determining the fee. Cash flow does not include
dividend and interest income from PTR Development Services, realized gains or
losses from dispositions of investments or income from cash equivalent
investments. The REIT Manager also receives a fee of 0.25% per year on the
average daily balance of cash equivalent investments.
 
PTR is obligated to reimburse the REIT Manager for certain expenses incurred by
the REIT Manager on behalf of PTR relating to PTR's operations, consisting
primarily of external professional fees, offering costs and travel expenses.
 
The REIT Management Agreement is renewable by PTR annually, subject to a
determination by the independent Trustees (who receive performance benchmark
information verified by an independent third party) that the REIT Manager's
performance has been satisfactory and that the compensation payable to the REIT
Manager is fair. Each of PTR and the REIT Manager may terminate the REIT
Management Agreement on 60 days' notice.
 
SCG Realty Services Incorporated ("SCG Realty Services"), a subsidiary of
Security Capital, has managed and currently manages a substantial majority of
PTR's operating multifamily communities (91.3% as of January 29, 1997, based on
total expected investment). Homestead Realty Services Incorporated ("Homestead
Realty Services"), a subsidiary of Security Capital, managed all of PTR's
operating Homestead Village(R) extended-stay lodging assets through October 17,
1996 (See Note 2).
 
PTR recently announced that it received a proposal from Security Capital to
exchange the REIT Manager and SCG Realty Services for Common Shares. As a
result of the proposed transaction, PTR would become an internally managed REIT
and Security Capital would remain PTR's largest shareholder. The Board has
formed a special committee comprised of independent Trustees to review the
proposed transaction. The proposed transaction is subject to approval by both
the special committee and the full Board. If the Board approves the
transaction, a proxy statement, subject to review by the Securities and
Exchange Commission, will be mailed to PTR's common shareholders prior to a
shareholder vote on the proposed transaction.

(11) COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
 
PTR is a party to various claims and routine litigation arising in the ordinary
course of business. PTR does not believe that the results of any of such claims
and litigation, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse
effect on its business, financial position or results of operations.
 
PTR is subject to environmental regulations related to the ownership,
operation, development and acquisition of real estate. As part of its due
diligence investigation procedures, PTR has conducted Phase I environmental
assessments on each property prior to acquisition since 1984. The cost of
complying with environmental regulations was not material to PTR's results of
operations for any of the years in the three-year period ended December 31,
1996. PTR is not aware of any environmental condition on any of its communities
which is likely to have a material adverse effect on PTR's financial condition
or results of operations.
 
See Notes 4 and 5 for development and acquisition commitments.

                   NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
 
(12) FAIR VALUES OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
 
The following disclosures of estimated fair value of financial instruments was
determined by PTR based on available market information and valuation
methodologies believed to be appropriate for these purposes. Considerable
judgment and a high degree of subjectivity are involved in developing these
estimates and, accordingly, they are not necessarily indicative of amounts that
PTR could realize upon disposition.
 
As of December 31, 1996 and 1995, the carrying amount of certain financial
instruments employed by PTR, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts
receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses were representative of their
fair values because of the short-term maturity of these instruments. Similarly,
the carrying value of lines of credit balances approximates fair value as of
those dates since the interest rate fluctuates based on published market rates.
As discussed in Note 5, the Homestead Notes outstanding at December 31, 1996
are reflected at fair value in the accompanying balance sheet. PTR believes the
carrying value of the other mortgage notes receivable approximates fair value.
As of December 31, 1996 and 1995, based on the borrowings available to PTR, the
carrying value of the long-term debt and mortgages was a reasonable estimation
of their fair values.
 
Derivative Financial Instruments
PTR has only limited involvement with derivative financial instruments and does
not use them for trading purposes. PTR occasionally utilizes derivative
financial instruments as hedges in anticipation of future transactions to
manage well-defined interest rate risk.
 
In anticipation of a 1997 debt offering, PTR entered into interest rate
contracts in 1996 with notional amounts aggregating $50 million which PTR plans
to terminate when the anticipated offering is completed. As of December 31,
1996, the fair value of these interest rate contracts was an unrealized loss of
approximately $831,000 (approximately $69,250 as of March 10, 1997) based on
quoted market prices or estimates obtained from brokers. There were no
derivative financial instruments outstanding as of December 31, 1995.
 
(13) SUBSEQUENT EVENT
 
On March 10, 1997, PTR borrowed $60 million under a short-term borrowing
agreement with a financial institution. The loan matures on September 10, 1997,
but provides for early repayment at PTR's option on the 10th day of each month
during the term. Interest is payable monthly at an annual rate of LIBOR plus
0.60% (6.0375% at March 10, 1997). These proceeds were used to pay down PTR's
$350 million line of credit which had an outstanding balance of $151.5 million
after the paydown on March 10, 1997.

                    REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
 
To the Board of Trustees and Shareholders of
Security Capital Industrial Trust
 
We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Security
Capital Industrial Trust and subsidiaries as of June 30, 1997, and the related
consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months ended June
30, 1997 and 1996, and the consolidated statements of cash flows for the six
months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996. These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Trust's management.
 
We conducted our review in accordance with standards established by the
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A review of interim
financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures to
financial data and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and
accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted
in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, the objective of
which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken
as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.
 
Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should
be made to the financial statements referred to above for them to be in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
 
We have previously audited, in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards, the consolidated balance sheet of Security Capital Industrial Trust
and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1996, and in our report dated February 10,
1997, we expressed an unqualified opinion on that statement. In our opinion,
the information set forth in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of
December 31, 1996, is fairly stated in all material respects, in relation to
the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
                                 JUNE 30, 1997
                                  (UNAUDITED)
 
1. GENERAL:
 
The consolidated financial statements of Security Capital Industrial Trust
("SCI") as of June 30, 1997 are unaudited, and pursuant to the rules of the
Securities and Exchange Commission, certain information and footnote
disclosures normally included in financial statements have been omitted. The
consolidated financial statements for 1996 have been restated to conform to the
1997 presentation. While management of SCI believes that the disclosures
presented are adequate, these interim consolidated financial statements should
be read in conjunction with SCI's December 31, 1996 consolidated financial
statements.
 
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial
statements contain all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments,
necessary for a fair presentation of SCI's consolidated financial position and
results of operations for the interim periods. The results of operations for
the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1997 and 1996 are not
necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the entire year.
 
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 assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
2. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS:
 
In March 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") released
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings Per Share"
("SFAS No. 128"). The new statement is effective December 15, 1997 and will
require restatement of prior years' earnings per share; early adoption is not
permitted. The adoption of SFAS No. 128 will have no material effect on SCI's
reported earnings per share.
 
The FASB has also released Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 129,
"Disclosure of Information about Capital Structure" ("SFAS No. 129"). SCI
already complies with the requirements of the standard which is effective for
periods ending after December 15, 1997.

4. INVESTMENT IN AND ADVANCES TO UNCONSOLIDATED SUBSIDIARIES:
 
On April 24, 1997, SCI Logistics Services Incorporated ("SCI Logistics"), a
newly formed corporation, acquired a 60% interest in a refrigerated warehouse
company, renamed CS Integrated LLC ("CSI"), for $73.4 million. CSI owns 16
refrigerated warehouses totaling 43.4 million cubic feet and two dry storage
facilities. SCI Logistics will account for its investment in CSI on the equity
method because the minority shareholder of CSI has significant rights involving
day-to-day operations as well as the right to approve certain significant
transactions. SCI owns 100% of the nonvoting preferred stock of SCI Logistics.
An unrelated third party owns 100% of the common stock of SCI Logistics. SCI
will recognize 95% of the economic benefits from SCI Logistics' cash flow (as
defined) through its cumulative preferred stock dividends. SCI will account for
its investment in SCI Logistics on the cost method due to the approval rights
of the common shareholder.
 
As of June 30, 1997 Investment in and Advances to Unconsolidated Subsidiaries
consists of the following items (in thousands):

</TABLE>
 
The note receivable from SCI Logistics is an unsecured loan which bears
interest at 13% per annum payable annually on the 24th of April of each year,
and matures on April 24, 2002. The short term note receivable from CSI is a
bridge loan expected to be replaced by third party financing in the third
quarter of 1997. The loan bears interest payable quarterly at a rate equal to
the lesser of (a) the higher of the prime rate plus 1% or the federal funds
rate and (b) the highest lawful rate.
 
5. BORROWINGS:
 
Line of Credit
SCI has a $350.0 million unsecured revolving line of credit agreement with
NationsBank of Texas, N.A. (as agent for a bank group). Borrowings bear
interest at SCI's option, at either an annual rate equal to the lesser of (a)
the greater of the federal funds rate plus 0.5%, and the prime rate, or (b)
LIBOR plus .95%, based upon SCI's current senior debt ratings. Additionally,
there is a commitment fee ranging from .125% to .20% per annum of the unused
line of credit balance. The line is scheduled to mature in May 1999 and may be
extended annually for an additional year with the approval of NationsBank and
the other participating lenders (the "Bank Group"); if not extended, at SCI's
election, the facility will either (a) convert to a three year term note, or
(b) continue on a revolving basis with the remaining one year maturity. All
debt incurrences are subject to a covenant that SCI maintain a debt to tangible
net worth ratio of not greater than 1 to 1. Additionally, SCI is required to
maintain an adjusted net worth (as defined) of at least $1.25 billion, to
maintain interest payment coverage of not less than 2 to 1, and to maintain a
fixed charge coverage ratio (as defined) of not less than 1.75 to 1. As of June
30, 1997, SCI was in compliance with all covenants contained in the line of
credit, and as of August 11, 1997, $64.1 million of borrowings were outstanding
on the line of credit.
 
On March 19, 1997, SCI executed a promissory note (the "Note") with NationsBank
for a short term unsecured borrowing agreement of $15.0 million which matures
October 1, 1997. The rate of interest on each

advance (a "Loan") and the maturity date of each Loan will be determined by
agreement between SCI and NationsBank at the time of such Loan. The purpose of
this Note is to provide a lower cost option for same day borrowings since there
is a three day notice period required on the revolving line of credit.

             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
 
 
All of the foregoing notes are redeemable at any time at the option of SCI, in
whole or in part, at a redemption price equal to the sum of the principal
amount of the notes being redeemed plus accrued interest thereon to the
redemption date plus an adjustment, if any, based on the yield to maturity
relative to market yields available at redemption. Such notes are governed by
the terms and provisions of an indenture (the "Indenture") between SCI and
State Street Bank and Trust Company, as trustee.
 
Under the terms of the Indenture, SCI can incur additional debt only if, after
giving effect to the debt being incurred and application of proceeds therefrom,
(i) the ratio of debt to total assets, as defined in the Indenture, does not
exceed 60%, (ii) the ratio of secured debt to total assets, as defined in the
Indenture, does not exceed 40%, and (iii) SCI's pro forma interest coverage
ratio, as defined in the Indenture, for the four preceding fiscal quarters is
not less than 1.5:1. In addition, SCI may not at any time own Total
Unencumbered Assets, as defined in the Indenture, equal to less than 150% of
the aggregate outstanding principal amount of SCI's unsecured debt. At June 30,
1997, SCI was in compliance with all debt covenants contained in the Indenture.
 
Mortgage Notes Payable, Assessment Bonds Payable and Securitized Debt
Mortgage notes payable of $84.3 million were secured by real estate with an

6. MINORITY INTEREST:
 
Minority interest represents limited partners' interests in five real estate
partnerships controlled by SCI (Red Mountain Joint Venture, SCI Limited
Partnership-I, SCI Limited Partnership-II, SCI Limited Partnership-III, and SCI
Limited Partnership-IV). As of June 30, 1997, a total of 5,194,258 limited
partnership units were held by minority interest limited partners in the
various real estate partnerships. Limited partners are entitled to exchange
each partnership unit for one common share of SCI.

<PAGE>
 
                       SECURITY CAPITAL INDUSTRIAL TRUST
 
             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
 
 
In October 1994, SCI IV, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of SCI, made a $27.5
million cash contribution to SCI Limited Partnership-IV, a Delaware limited
partnership (Partnership-IV), in exchange for a 96.36% general partnership
interest in Partnership-IV, and third party investors that were not affiliated
with SCI contributed an aggregate of $1.0 million in assets to Partnership-IV
in exchange for limited partner interests totaling 3.64% in Partnership-IV. SCI
has contributed additional funds to the partnership in 1996 and 1997 in
conjunction with tax deferred exchanges of real estate which increased SCI's
interest from 96.36% to 96.62%. SCI IV, Inc., as general partner, manages the
activities of Partnership-IV and has fiduciary responsibilities to Partnership-
IV and its other partners.
 
Both Partnership-IV and SCI IV, Inc. are legal entities that are separate and
distinct from SCI, its affiliates and each other, and each has separate assets,
liabilities, business functions and operations. The assets owned by
Partnership-IV consist of income producing, improved real property primarily
located in Florida, Ohio and Oklahoma. The sole assets owned by SCI IV, Inc.
are its general partner advances to and interest in Partnership-IV. SCI and its
affiliates had no borrowings from SCI IV, Inc. at June 30, 1997. Partnership-IV
had $1.1 million of borrowings from SCI IV, Inc. at June 30, 1997. SCI IV, Inc.
had $1.1 million of borrowings from SCI and its affiliates at June 30, 1997.
For financial reporting purposes, the assets, liabilities, results of
operations and cash flows of each of Partnership-IV and SCI IV, Inc. are
included in SCI's consolidated financial statements and the third party
investors' interests in Partnership-IV are reflected as minority interest.
Limited partners are entitled to exchange each partnership unit for one common
share of beneficial interest in SCI and are entitled to receive preferential
cumulative quarterly distributions per unit equal to the quarterly distribution
in respect of common shares. At June 30, 1997, there were 68,612 limited
partnership units outstanding in Partnership-IV.
 
7. SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY:
 
On March 24, 1997, SCI issued 48,809 common shares in conjunction with an
acquisition of property. On February 7, 1997, SCI completed a public offering
of 4,025,000 common shares; net proceeds to SCI after underwriting discounts
and offering costs were $80.4 million.
 
On June 30, 1997, SCI paid a quarterly dividend of $0.5875 per cumulative
redeemable Series A preferred share, $0.4375 per cumulative convertible Series
B preferred share ("Series B Preferred Share") and $1.0675 per cumulative
redeemable Series C preferred share to preferred shareholders of record on June
16, 1997. On July 16, 1997, SCI declared a distribution of $0.2675 per common
share, payable on August 19, 1997, to common shareholders of record as of
August 5, 1997.
 
8. EARNINGS PER SHARE:
 
Earnings per share is computed based on the weighted average number of common
shares outstanding during the period. Exercise of outstanding warrants and
options to acquire 37,764 SCI common shares would not have a material dilutive
effect on earnings per share. The conversion of the limited partnership units
(as discussed in Note 6) and the Series B Cumulative Convertible Redeemable
Preferred Shares into common shares is not assumed since the effect would not
be dilutive.
 
9. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS:
 
Proposed Merger Transaction
On August 5, 1997, the Securities and Exchange Commission declared effective a
registration statement filed by Security Capital Group Incorporated ("Security
Capital") relating to warrants to purchase Class B common stock of Security
Capital and containing SCI's proxy statement relating to a proposed merger
transaction whereby SCI would acquire the operations and businesses of its REIT
manager and property manager valued at approximately $81.9 million in exchange
for SCI common shares. The $81.9 million value was based on a three-year
discounted

                       SECURITY CAPITAL INDUSTRIAL TRUST
 
             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
 
analysis of net operating income prepared by Security Capital and revised after
negotiation with a special committee comprised of independent Trustees (the
"Special Committee"). The number of SCI common shares issuable to Security
Capital (3,692,023) is based on the average market price of the common shares
($22.175) over the five-day period prior to the August 6, 1997 record date for
determining SCI's shareholders entitled to vote on the merger. As a result of
the transaction, SCI would become an internally managed REIT and Security
Capital would remain SCI's largest shareholder (44.1% as of June 30, 1997).
SCI's Board of Trustees approved the proposed merger transaction based on the
recommendation of the Special Committee. The proposed merger transaction
requires the approval of a majority of the outstanding common shares. SCI's
proxy statement was mailed to SCI's common shareholders and a meeting of SCI's
shareholders to vote on the proposed merger is scheduled to be held on
September 8, 1997. Assuming that the market value of the common shares issued
to Security Capital on the transaction date is $81.9 million, approximately
$5.7 million will be allocated to the net tangible assets acquired and the
$76.2 million difference will be accounted for as costs incurred in acquiring
the management companies from a related party since the management companies do
not qualify as "businesses" for purposes of applying APB Opinion No. 16,
"Business Combinations".
 
In addition, subject to and after the closing of the proposed merger and after
the closing of the rights offering described below, Security Capital will issue
warrants pro rata to holders of SCI's common shares, Series B Preferred Shares
and limited partnership units (other than Security Capital), to acquire shares
of Class B common stock of Security Capital having an aggregate subscription
price at the time of issuance of approximately $101 million. The number of
shares of Class B common stock subject to the warrants will be based on the
closing price of such shares on the date the warrants are issued to a warrant
distribution agent for subsequent distribution to holders of common shares,
Series B Preferred Shares and limited partnership units. The warrants will have
a term of one year. Security Capital is issuing the warrants to induce SCI
common shareholders to vote in favor of the proposed merger and to raise
additional equity capital at a relatively low cost, in addition to other
benefits.
 
The Rights Offering
On August 6, 1997, SCI commenced a rights offering to subscribe for and
purchase 4,970,352 common shares of beneficial interest at a price of $21 per
share (the "Subscription Price"). SCI's common shareholders of record on August
6, 1997 will receive a dividend of one right for each common share held. Eleven
rights entitle the holder to purchase one common share at the Subscription
Price. The rights are transferable and will expire on September 9, 1997. The
offering is designed to allow SCI's shareholders (other than Security Capital)
the opportunity to maintain their relative ownership in SCI by purchasing
additional common shares at a price which is below the price at which Security
Capital is receiving common shares in the proposed merger. The funds from the
rights offering will be used to repay borrowings under SCI's unsecured line of
credit, for the acquisition and development of additional distribution
properties and for general corporate business purposes.
 
Debt Issuance
On July 11, 1997, SCI issued $100 million of Senior Notes due 2017 (the "July
1997 Notes"). The July 1997 Notes bear interest at 7.625% per annum payable
semi-annually on January 1 and July 1 of each year. The principal will mature
on July 1, 2017. The average effective interest cost is 7.73%, including all
costs associated with the offering plus $235,759 combined proceeds from a
forward treasury lock agreement and a swap agreement entered into in November
1996 in anticipation of the July debt offering. The forward treasury lock
agreement was on a notional amount of $26 million of U.S. Treasury bonds
maturing August 15, 2016 with a base price of 103.453% and effectively fixed
the 30-year Treasury bond used to price the July 1997 Notes at a rate of 6.56%.
The termination of the forward treasury lock resulted in a gain of $174,319.
The swap was on a notional amount of $33.0 million and required SCI to pay a
fixed rate of 6.61% on the notional amount in exchange for a floating rate
equal to the three-month LIBOR rate. The termination of the swap on July 8,
1997 resulted in a gain of $61,440.

                    REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
 
To the Board of Trustees and Shareholders of
Security Capital Industrial Trust:
 
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Security
Capital Industrial Trust and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1996 and 1995, and
the related consolidated statements of operations, shareholders' equity, and
cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1996.
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Trust's management.
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based
on our audits.
 
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. 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 audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.
 
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of Security Capital Industrial
Trust and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the results of
their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period
ended December 31, 1996, in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.

1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS:
 
Security Capital Industrial Trust ("SCI"), a Maryland real estate investment
trust ("REIT"), is a national operating company focused exclusively on meeting
the distribution space needs of national, regional and local industrial real
estate users through the SCI National Operating System(TM). SCI engages in the
acquisition, development, marketing, operation and long-term ownership of
distribution facilities, and the development of master-planned distribution
parks and build-to-suit facilities for its customers. SCI's operating strategy
is to provide an exceptional level of services to its existing and prospective
customers on a national, regional and local basis. SCI deploys capital in
markets with excellent long-term growth prospects where SCI can achieve a
strong market position through the acquisition and development of generic,
flexible facilities designed for both warehousing and light manufacturing uses.
As of December 31, 1996, SCI's portfolio contained 80.6 million square feet in
942 operating buildings and had an additional 5.9 million square feet under
development in 47 buildings for a total of 86.5 million square feet in 36
target market cities. SCI completed its initial public offering on March 31,
1994.
 
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
 
REIT Organization Status
In January 1993, SCI was formed as a Maryland real estate investment trust. In
February 1993, Security Capital Industrial Investors Incorporated, a Delaware
corporation, was merged with and into SCI. SCI has made an election to be taxed
as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.
 
REITs are not required to pay federal income taxes if minimum distribution and
income, asset and shareholder tests are met. During 1996, 1995 and 1994, SCI
was in compliance with the REIT requirements. Thus, no federal income tax
provision has been reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial
statements.
 
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the results of SCI,
its subsidiaries and its majority-owned and controlled partnerships (SCI has no
unconsolidated subsidiaries or minority ownership interests). The effects of
intercompany transactions have been eliminated. Certain amounts included in the
consolidated financial statements for prior years have been reclassified to
conform with the 1996 financial statement presentation.
 
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 assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
Real Estate and Depreciation
Real estate is carried at cost. Costs directly related to the acquisition,
renovation or development of real estate are capitalized and are depreciated
over the following useful lives:
 
<TABLE>
             <S>                  <C>
             Tenant improvements  10 years
             Acquired buildings   30 years
             Developed buildings  40 years
</TABLE>
 
Depreciation is computed using a straight-line method. Certain real estate was
acquired through formation of partnerships (see Note 5) wherein SCI contributed
cash and the limited partners contributed real estate in exchange for
partnership units which are ultimately exchangeable for SCI's Common Shares of
beneficial interest, par value $0.01 per share (the "Common Shares"). In
consolidating the partnerships' assets, real estate cost includes the estimated
fair value attributable to the limited partners' interests at the acquisition
dates because (1) SCI's cash contributions constituted over 50% of the
acquisition prices, (2) the acquisitions were from unrelated third-parties and
(3) the limited partners were not considered "promoters" under SEC Staff
Accounting Bulletin 48. The limited partners' interests will be reflected as
minority interest in the consolidated financial statements until the units are
exchanged for SCI Common Shares. In management's opinion, real estate assets
are not carried at amounts in excess of their estimated net realizable values.

Recent Accounting Pronouncement
Effective January 1, 1996, SCI adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for
Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of," ("SFAS No. 121") which had no material
impact on its consolidated financial statements. SFAS No. 121 establishes
accounting standards for the review for impairment of long-lived assets to be
held and used, whenever the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable,
and requires that certain long-lived assets to be disposed of be reported at
the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell.
 
Capitalized Interest
SCI capitalizes interest costs incurred during the land development or
construction period of qualifying projects.
 
Deferred Loan Fees
Included in other assets as of December 31, 1996 and 1995 are costs of $9.2
million and $6.8 million, respectively, associated with obtaining financing
(see Note 4) which have been capitalized and are being amortized (to interest
expense or capitalized interest, as appropriate) over the life of the loan
using the effective interest rate method.
 
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash in bank accounts and funds invested
in money market funds.
 
Minority Interest
Minority interest is carried at cost and represents limited partners' interests
in various real estate partnerships controlled by SCI. As discussed in Real
Estate and Depreciation, certain minority interests are carried at the pro rata
share of the estimated fair value of property at the acquisition dates. Common
Shares of SCI issued upon exchange of limited partnership units will be
accounted for at the cost of the minority interest surrendered.
 
Earnings per Share
Per share data is computed based on the weighted average number of Common
Shares outstanding during the period. Exercise of outstanding warrants and
options to acquire 29,764 Common Shares would not have a material dilutive
effect on earnings per share. The conversion of the limited partnership units
(see Note 5) and the Series B Cumulative Convertible Redeemable Preferred
Shares, par value $.01 per share ("Series B Preferred Shares"), into Common
Shares is not assumed since the effect would not be dilutive.
 
Interest Rate Contracts
SCI utilizes various interest rate contracts to hedge interest rate risk on
anticipated debt offerings. These anticipatory hedges are designated, and
effective, as hedges of identified debt issuances which have a high probability
of occurring. Gains and losses resulting from changes in the market value of
these contracts are deferred and amortized into interest expense over the life
of the related debt issuance.

</TABLE>
 
Capitalized preacquisition costs include $1,634,000 and $2,137,000 of funds on
deposit with title companies as of December 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively,
for property acquisitions.
 
Other real estate income consists primarily of gains on disposition of
undepreciated property and fees and other income from build-to-suit customers
generated to a large extent by SCI Development Services Incorporated ("SCI
Development Services"). SCI Development Services develops build-to-suit
distribution space facilities or works on a fee basis for customers whose space
needs do not meet SCI's strict investment criteria for long-term ownership.
Through its preferred stock ownership, SCI will realize substantially all
economic benefits of SCI Development Services' activities. Further, SCI
advances mortgage loans to SCI Development Services to fund acquisition,
development and construction ("AD&C") activity. In accordance with accounting
guidance for AD&C lending, therefore, SCI accounts for these loans as real
estate investments, effectively consolidating the activities of SCI Development
Services. As of December 31, 1996, the outstanding balances of development and
mortgage loans made by SCI to SCI Development Services for the purchase of
distribution facilities and land for distribution facility development
aggregated $162.0 million. SCI Development Services pays federal and state
taxes at the applicable corporate rate.
 
The REIT Manager provides SCI Development Services with day-to-day management
for a fee based on 16% of SCI Development Services' pre-tax cash flow,
including gains and losses realized on property sales. The fee incurred for
1996 was approximately $1.3 million. Dividends and interest paid by SCI
Development Services to SCI are excluded from SCI's cash flow for determining
the REIT management fee paid by SCI.
 
SCI leases its properties to customers under agreements which are classified as
operating leases. The leases generally provide for payment of all or a portion
of utilities, property taxes and insurance by the customer. SCI's largest
customer accounted for less than 1.5% of SCI's 1996 rental income (on an
annualized basis), and the annualized base rent for SCI's 20 largest customers
accounted for less than 12.9% of SCI's 1996 rental income (on an annualized
basis). Minimum lease payments receivable on non-cancelable leases with lease
periods greater than one year are as follows (in thousands):

In addition to the December 31, 1996 construction payable accrual of $24.6
million, SCI had unfunded commitments on its contracts for developments under
construction totaling $106.6 million. These commitments relate to development
activity in Atlanta, Charlotte, Chicago, Cincinnati, Dallas, East Bay (San
Francisco), Houston, Indianapolis, Kansas City, Las Vegas, Nashville, Orange
County, CA, Orlando, Portland, Rio Grande Valley, Salt Lake City, San Antonio,
Seattle, Tampa, and Washington, D.C./Baltimore.

payable are secured by real estate with an aggregate undepreciated cost of
$219.6 million at December 31, 1996. Securitized debt is collateralized by real

Line of Credit
SCI has a $350.0 million unsecured revolving line of credit agreement with
NationsBank of Texas, N.A. (as agent for a bank group). Borrowings bear
interest at SCI's option, at either (a) the greater of the federal funds rate
plus 0.5% and the prime rate, or (b) LIBOR plus 1.25% based upon SCI's current
senior debt ratings. The prime rate was 8.25% and the 30 day LIBOR rate was
5.50% at December 31, 1996. Additionally, there is a commitment fee ranging
from .125% to .25% per annum of the unused line of credit balance. The line is
scheduled to mature in May 1998 and may be extended annually for an additional
year with the approval of NationsBank and the other participating lenders; if
not extended, at SCI's election, the facility will either (a) convert to a
three-year term note or (b) continue on a revolving basis with the remaining
one-year maturity. All debt incurrences are subject to a covenant that SCI
maintain a debt to tangible net worth ratio of not greater than 1 to 1.
Additionally, SCI is required to maintain an adjusted net worth (as defined) of
at least $1.0 billion, to maintain interest payment coverage of not less than 2
to 1 and to maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio of not less than 1.4 to 1.
SCI is in compliance with all covenants contained in the line of credit, and as
of February 10, 1997, no borrowings were outstanding on the line of credit.
 
A summary of SCI's line of credit borrowings is as follows for the years ended
December 31, (in thousands):

All of the foregoing Notes are redeemable at any time at the option of SCI, in
whole or in part, at a redemption price equal to the sum of the principal
amount of the Notes being redeemed plus accrued interest thereon to the
redemption date plus an adjustment, if any, based on the yield to maturity
relative to market yields available at redemption. The Notes are governed by
the terms and provisions of an indenture agreement (the "Indenture") between
SCI and State Street Bank and Trust Company, as trustee.
 
Under the terms of the Indenture, SCI can incur additional debt only if, after
giving effect to the debt being incurred and application of proceeds therefrom,
(i) the ratio of debt to total assets, as defined in the Indenture, does not
exceed 60%, (ii) the ratio of secured debt to total assets, as defined in the
Indenture, does not exceed 40% and (iii) SCI's pro forma interest coverage
ratio, as defined in the Indenture, for the four preceding fiscal quarters is
not less than 1.5:1. In addition, SCI may not at any time own total
unencumbered assets, as defined in the Indenture, equal to less than 150% of
the aggregate outstanding principal amount of SCI's unsecured debt. At December
31, 1996, SCI was in compliance with all debt covenants contained in the
Indenture.

5. MINORITY INTEREST:
 
Minority interest represents limited partners' interests in five real estate
partnerships controlled by SCI.
 
SCI owns a 70.0% general partnership interest in Red Mountain Joint Venture,
which owns approximately $3 million of property in Albuquerque, New Mexico.
 
On December 22, 1993, SCI acquired a 68.7% controlling general partnership
interest in SCI Limited Partnership-I, which owns distribution facilities
primarily in the San Francisco Bay area. Limited partners are entitled to
exchange each partnership unit for one Common Share and are entitled to receive
preferential cumulative quarterly distributions per unit equal to the quarterly
distribution in respect of Common Shares. At December 31, 1996, 4,520,533
limited partnership units were outstanding and no units had been exchanged.
 
During the first two quarters of 1994, SCI acquired an 81.2% controlling
general partnership interest in SCI Limited Partnership-II, which owns
distribution facilities primarily in Austin, Charlotte, Dallas, Denver, El Paso
and the San Francisco Bay area. Limited partners are entitled to exchange each
partnership unit for one Common Share and are entitled to receive preferential
cumulative quarterly distributions per unit equal to the quarterly distribution
in respect of Common Shares. During the third quarter of 1995, certain limited
partners in SCI Limited Partnership-II exercised their conversion rights to
exchange partnership units for Common Shares on a one for one basis. As a
result of these conversions, SCI's general partnership interest in SCI Limited
Partnership-II increased to 97.4%, and SCI's outstanding Common Shares
increased by 555,651 shares. As of December 31, 1996, there were 90,213 limited
partnership units outstanding in SCI Limited Partnership-II.
 
In October 1994, SCI acquired a 50.4% controlling general partnership interest
in SCI Limited Partnership-III, which owns distribution facilities primarily in
Tampa, Florida. During 1995, SCI contributed an additional $11.9 million to
this partnership for asset acquisitions which increased SCI's general
partnership interest to 71.8%. During 1996, SCI contributed $4.2 million for a
property acquisition in San Antonio, Texas which increased SCI's general
partnership interest from 71.8% to 75.6%. Limited partners are entitled to
exchange each partnership unit for one Common Share and are entitled to receive
preferential cumulative quarterly distributions per unit equal to the quarterly
distribution in respect of Common Shares. As of December 31, 1996, there were
514,900 limited partnership units outstanding in SCI Limited Partnership-III
and no units had been exchanged.
 
In October 1994, SCI IV, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of SCI, made a $27.5
million cash contribution to SCI Limited Partnership-IV, a Delaware limited
partnership ("Partnership-IV"), in exchange for a 96.36% general partner
interest in Partnership-IV, and third party investors that were not affiliated
with SCI contributed an aggregate of $1.0 million in assets to Partnership-IV
in exchange for limited partner interests totalling 3.6% in Partnership-IV. SCI
contributed an additional $150,000 to the partnership in 1996 in conjunction
with a Section 1031 exchange transaction which increased SCI's interest from
96.36% to 96.38%. SCI IV, Inc., as general partner, manages the activities of
Partnership-IV and has fiduciary responsibilities to Partnership-IV and its
other partners.
 
Both Partnership-IV and SCI IV, Inc. are legal entities that are separate and
distinct from SCI, its affiliates and each other, and each has separate assets,
liabilities, business functions and operations. The assets owned by
Partnership-IV consist of income-producing, improved real property located in
Florida, Ohio and Oklahoma. The sole assets owned by SCI IV, Inc. are its
general partner advances to and interest in Partnership-IV. SCI and its
affiliates had no borrowings from Partnership-IV at December 31, 1996 and 1995.
Partnership-IV had $1,384,000 and $283,000 of borrowings from SCI IV, Inc. at
December 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively. SCI IV, Inc. had $1,384,000 and
$283,000 of borrowings from SCI and its affiliates at December 31, 1996 and
1995, respectively. For financial

reporting purposes, the assets, liabilities, results of operations and cash
flows of each of Partnership-IV and SCI IV, Inc. are included in SCI's
consolidated financial statements, and the third party investors' interests in
Partnership-IV are reflected as minority interest. Limited partners are
entitled to exchange each partnership unit for one Common Share and are
entitled to receive preferential cumulative quarterly distributions per unit
equal to the quarterly distribution in respect of Common Shares. At December
31, 1996, there were 68,612 limited partnership units outstanding in
Partnership-IV and no units had been exchanged.
 
6. SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY:
 
On November 13, 1996, SCI issued 2,000,000 Series C Cumulative Redeemable
Preferred Shares (the "Series C Preferred Shares"). The Series C Preferred
Shares have a liquidation preference of $50.00 per share for an aggregate
liquidation preference of $100.0 million plus accrued and unpaid dividends. The
net proceeds (after underwriting commission and other offering costs) of the
Series C Preferred Shares issued were $97.1 million. Holders of the Series C
Preferred Shares are entitled to receive, when, as and if declared by SCI's
Board of Trustees (the "Board"), out of funds legally available for payment of
distributions, cumulative preferential cash distributions at a rate of 8.54% of
the liquidation preference per annum (equivalent to $4.27 per share). On or
after November 13, 2026, the Series C Preferred Shares may be redeemed for cash
at the option of SCI. The redemption price (other than the portion thereof
consisting of accrued and unpaid distributions) is payable solely out of the
sale proceeds of other capital shares of SCI, which may include shares of other
series of preferred shares.
 
On August 21, 1996, SCI commenced a rights offering to sell 6,787,806 Common
Shares at $17.25 per Common Share and also authorized an additional 3,393,903
Common Shares for oversubscriptions or third party subscribers. In September
1996, SCI issued 7,865,645 Common Shares of the 10,181,709 Common Shares
subscribed for and recorded subscriptions receivable of $40.0 million. In
October 1996, 2,316,064 Common Shares were issued and all subscriptions
receivable were collected. Gross proceeds from the offering totaled $175.6
million.
 
On September 24, 1996, SCI offered 2,036,342 Common Shares to third party
subscribers in the rights offering that were not accepted in whole or in part
due to demand in excess of the Common Shares offered. All of the Common Shares
were subscribed for as of September 30, 1996 and subscriptions receivable for
gross proceeds of $35.1 million recorded. In October 1996, all of such Common
Shares were issued and all subscriptions receivable were collected.
 
Security Capital Group Incorporated ("Security Capital"), an affiliate of SCI's
REIT Manager, purchased 3,734,240 Common Shares in connection with the
September rights offering at the same price paid by the public. As of December
31, 1996, Security Capital owned 46.0% of SCI's outstanding 93,676,546 Common
Shares.
 
In February 1996, SCI issued a total of 8,050,000 Series B Cumulative
Convertible Redeemable Preferred Shares (the "Series B Preferred Shares"). The
Series B Preferred Shares have a liquidation preference of $25.00 per share for
an aggregate liquidation preference of $201.3 million plus any accrued and
unpaid dividends. Holders of the Series B Preferred Shares are only entitled to
limited voting rights under certain conditions. The Series B Preferred Shares
are convertible at any time, unless previously redeemed, at the option of the
holders thereof into Common Shares at a conversion price of $19.50 per share
(equivalent to a conversion rate of 1.282 Common Shares for each Series B
Preferred Share), subject to adjustment in certain circumstances. Holders of
the Series B Preferred Shares are entitled to receive, when, as and if declared
by the Board, out of funds legally available for the payment of distributions,
cumulative preferential cash distributions in an amount per share equal to the
greater of 7% of the liquidation preference per annum (equivalent to $1.75 per
share) or the distribution on the Common Shares, or portion thereof, into which
a Series B Preferred Share is convertible. Distributions on the Series B
Preferred Shares are cumulative from the date of original issue and payable
quarterly in arrears on the last day of March, June, September and December of
each year. The Series B Preferred Shares are redeemable at the option of SCI on
or after February 21, 2001.
 
On September 29, 1995, SCI issued 9,421,505 Common Shares at $15.375 per share
and received subscriptions for 6,838,658 additional Common Shares at the same
price in conjunction with a rights offering ($250 million). The

additional Common Shares were issued on October 3, 1995. Security Capital
purchased 6,504,148 Common Shares in this offering (40% of the shares sold). As
of December 31, 1995, Security Capital owned 48.3% of SCI's outstanding
81,416,451 Common Shares.
 
On June 21, 1995, SCI issued 5,400,000 Series A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred
Shares (the "Series A Preferred Shares"). The Series A Preferred Shares have a
liquidation preference of $25.00 per share for an aggregate liquidation
preference of $135.0 million plus any accrued and unpaid dividends. The net
proceeds (after underwriting commission and other offering costs) of the Series
A Preferred Shares issued were $130.4 million. Holders of the Series A
Preferred Shares are entitled only to limited voting rights under certain
conditions. Holders of the Series A Preferred Shares will be entitled to
receive, when, as and if declared by the Board, out of funds legally available
for the payment of distributions, cumulative preferential cash distributions at
the rate of 9.4% of the liquidation preference per annum (equivalent to $2.35
per share). Such distributions are cumulative from the date of original issue
and are payable quarterly in arrears on the last day of March, June, September,
and December of each year. The Series A Preferred Shares are redeemable at the
option of SCI on or after June 21, 2000. The redemption price (other than the
portion thereof consisting of accrued and unpaid distributions) is payable
solely out of the sale proceeds of other capital shares of SCI, which may
include shares of other series of preferred shares.
 
In October and November 1994, SCI completed an offering of 18,000,000 Common
Shares at a price of $15.25 per share. 17,750,000 Common Shares were issued on
October 5, 1994, and 250,000 Common Shares were issued on November 17, 1994.
9,800,000 of the Common Shares were purchased by Security Capital, at the same
price paid by the public, with no underwriting discount or commission ($149.5
million). 8,200,000 of the Common Shares were sold through an underwritten
offering at $15.25 per share. The underwriting discount on these Common Shares
was $0.80 per share. After additional costs of the offering, net proceeds to
SCI were $266.9 million.
 
On June 29, 1994, SCI completed a rights offering and issued 6,611,571 Common
Shares at $15.125 per share ($100 million). Security Capital purchased
3,517,483 Common Shares in this offering (53% of the shares sold). On March 31,
1994, SCI completed its initial public offering and sold 3,260,870 Common
Shares at $11.50 per share ($37.5 million). Security Capital purchased 523,370
Common Shares in this offering (16% of the shares sold).
 
Dividend Reinvestment and Share Purchase Plan
In March 1995, SCI adopted a Dividend Reinvestment and Share Purchase Plan (the
"1995 Plan"), which commenced in April 1995. The 1995 Plan allows holders of
Common Shares the opportunity to acquire additional Common Shares by
automatically reinvesting distributions. Common Shares are acquired pursuant to
the 1995 Plan at a price equal to 98% of the market price of such Common
Shares, without payment of any brokerage commission or service charge. The 1995
Plan also allows participating common shareholders to purchase a limited number
of additional Common Shares at 98% of the market price of such Common Shares,
by making optional cash payments, without payment of any brokerage commission
or service charge. Holders of Common Shares who do not participate in the 1995
Plan continue to receive distributions as declared.
 
Option Plan
In April 1994, SCI adopted its Share Option Plan for Outside Trustees (the
"Outside Trustees Plan"). Under the Outside Trustees Plan, there are 100,000
Common Shares approved which can be granted to non-employee Trustees. All
options granted are for a term of five years and are immediately exercisable in
whole or in part. The exercise price of the options granted may not be less
than the fair market value on the date of the grant. At December 31, 1996 there
were 18,000 options for Common Shares outstanding and exercisable under the
Outside Trustees Plan at exercise prices of $15.50, $16.00, and $17.50.
 
SCI adopted the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
123 ("SFAS 123") "Accounting for Stock Based Compensation" during 1996. Under
the provisions of this statement, SCI will continue to account for the Outside
Trustees Plan under the provisions of APB Opinion No. 25, and make the pro
forma disclosures required by SFAS 123 where applicable. The effect of adopting
this statement was immaterial to SCI's consolidated financial statements.

             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
 
 
Shareholder Purchase Rights
On December 7, 1993, the Board declared a dividend of one preferred share
purchase right ("Right") for each outstanding Common Share to be distributed to
all holders of record of the Common Shares on December 31, 1993. Each Right
entitles the registered holder to purchase one-hundredth of a Participating
Preferred Share for an exercise price of $40.00 per one-hundredth of a
Participating Preferred Share, subject to adjustment as provided in the Rights
Agreement. The Rights will generally be exercisable only if a person or group
(other than certain affiliates of SCI) acquires 20% or more of the Common
Shares or announces a tender offer for 25% or more of the Common Shares. Under
certain circumstances, upon a shareholder acquisition of 20% or more of the
Common Shares (other than certain affiliates of SCI), each Right will entitle
the holder to purchase, at the Right's then-current exercise price, a number of
Common Shares having a market value of twice the Right's exercise price. The
acquisition of SCI pursuant to certain mergers or other business transactions
will entitle each holder of a Right to purchase, at the Right's then-current
exercise price, a number of the acquiring company's common shares having a
market value at that time equal to twice the Right's exercise price. The Rights
held by certain 20% shareholders will not be exercisable. The Rights will
expire on December 7, 2003, unless the expiration date of the Rights is
extended, and the Rights are subject to redemption at a price of $0.01 per
Right under certain circumstances.
 
7. DISTRIBUTIONS:
 
The annual distribution per Common Share was $1.01 in 1996, $0.935 in 1995 and
$0.85 in 1994. Distributions attributable to realized gains on the disposition
of investments may be considered for payment to shareholders on a special, as-
incurred basis.
 
For federal income tax purposes, the following summarizes the taxability of
distributions paid on Common Shares in 1995 and 1994 and the estimated
taxability for 1996:

On December 17, 1996, SCI declared a distribution of $0.2675 per Common Share
payable on February 18, 1997 to shareholders of record as of February 4, 1997.
At the same time, SCI announced that it set an annualized distribution level of
$1.07 per Common Share for 1997.
 
Pursuant to the terms of the preferred shares, SCI is restricted from declaring
or paying any distribution with respect to the Common Shares unless all
cumulative distributions with respect to the preferred shares have been paid
and sufficient funds have been set aside for distributions that have been
declared for the then-current distribution period with respect to the preferred
shares.

9. REIT MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT:
 
Security Capital Industrial Incorporated (the "REIT Manager"), a subsidiary of
Security Capital (Note 6), is the REIT manager of SCI. All officers of SCI are
employees of the REIT Manager and SCI currently has no employees. Pursuant to
the REIT management agreement, in exchange for providing research, strategic
planning, investment analysis, acquisition and development services, asset
management, capital markets, legal and accounting services and day-to-day
management of SCI's operations, the REIT Manager is entitled to receive from
SCI a REIT management fee, payable quarterly, equal to 16% of cash flow, as
defined in the agreement, before deducting (i) fees paid to the REIT Manager,
(ii) extraordinary expenses incurred at the request of the independent Trustees
of SCI, and (iii) 33% of any interest paid by SCI on convertible subordinated
debentures (of which there has been none since inception of the REIT management
agreement); and, after deducting (iv) actual or assumed regularly scheduled
principal and interest payments on long-term debt and (v) distributions
actually paid with respect to any non-convertible preferred shares of
beneficial interest of SCI. The REIT management agreement has been amended so
that the long-term senior notes described in Note 4 will be treated as if they
had regularly scheduled principal and interest payments similar to a 20-year
level monthly payment, fully amortizing mortgage and the assumed principal and
interest payments will be deducted from cash flow in determining the fee for
future periods. Cash flow does not include interest and income from SCI
Development Services, realized gains from dispositions of investments or income
from cash equivalent investments. The REIT Manager also receives a fee of .2%
of the average daily balance of funds invested in interest bearing cash
accounts, the earnings on which are not subject to the 16% fee. For the years
ended December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994, the REIT Manager earned REIT management
fees totalling $21,472,000, $14,207,000 and $8,673,000, respectively.
 
10. PROPERTY MANAGEMENT COMPANY:
 
Commencing January 1994, SCI Client Services Incorporated ("Client Services"),
a subsidiary of Security Capital, began providing property management services
for certain of SCI's properties. The agreement is subject to termination by SCI
or Client Services on 30 days' notice, is renewable annually upon approval of
SCI's independent Trustees, and provides for a monthly fee to Client Services
of no more than 3% per annum of property revenues, paid monthly, plus leasing
commissions consistent with industry practice, which together were $10.1
million, $4.7 million and $1.7 million for 1996, 1995 and 1994, respectively.
As of December 31, 1996, Client Services managed 90.0% of SCI's 80.6 million
total operating square feet. The REIT Manager anticipates that Client Services
will manage additional SCI properties in the future. Any management contracts
executed with Client Services are expected to be at terms management believes
are no less favorable to SCI than could be obtained with unaffiliated third
parties.

12. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS:
 
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The following disclosure of the estimated fair value of financial instruments
is presented in accordance with the requirements of SFAS No. 107. The estimated
fair value amounts have been determined by SCI using available market
information and valuation methodologies.
 
As of December 31, 1996 and 1995, the carrying amounts of certain financial
instruments employed by SCI, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts and
notes receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses were representative of
their fair values because of the short-term maturity of these instruments. As
of December 31, 1995, based on the borrowings available to SCI, the carrying
value of the long-term debt and mortgages was a reasonable estimation of their
fair values. As of December 31, 1996, the fair value of the long-term debt and
mortgages has been estimated based on quoted market prices for the same or
similar issues or by discounting the future cash flows using rates currently
available for debt with similar terms and maturities. The increase in the fair
value of long-term debt and mortgages over the carrying value in the table
below is a result of a net reduction in the interest rates available to SCI at
December 31, 1996 from the interest rates in effect at the dates of issuance.
The long-term debt and many of the mortgages contain prepayment penalties or
yield maintenance provisions which would make the cost of refinancing exceed
the benefit of refinancing at the lower rates. As of December 31, 1996, the
fair value of all derivative financial instruments are amounts at which they
could be settled, based on quoted market prices or estimates obtained from
brokers (there were no derivative financial instruments outstanding as of
December 31, 1995). The following table reflects the carrying amount and
estimated fair value of SCI's financial instruments (in thousands):

Derivative Financial Instruments
SCI has only limited involvement with derivative financial instruments and does
not use them for trading purposes. SCI uses derivatives to manage well-defined
interest rate risk.

             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
 
The primary risks associated with derivative instruments are market risk (price
risk) and credit risk. Price risk is defined as the potential for loss in the
value of the derivative due to adverse changes in market prices (interest
rates). SCI utilizes derivative instruments in anticipation of future
transactions to manage well defined interest rate risk. Through hedging, SCI
can effectively manage the risk of increases in interest rates on future debt
issuances.
 
Credit risk is the risk that one of the parties to a derivative contract fails
to perform or meet their financial obligation under the contract. SCI does not
obtain collateral to support financial instruments subject to credit risk but
monitors the credit standing of counterparties. As of December 31, 1996, the
counterparties to all outstanding contracts were financial institutions with AA
or A+ credit ratings. SCI does not anticipate non-performance by any of the
counterparties to its derivative contracts. Should a counterparty fail to
perform, however, SCI would incur a financial loss to the extent of the
positive fair market value of the derivative instruments.
 
The following table summarizes the activity in interest rate contracts for the
year ended December 31, 1996 (in millions):

(1) Included in the $106.0 million notional amount at December 31, 1996 are two
contracts totalling $80.0 million which settled on January 31, 1997 (see Note
14), and a $26.0 million contract with a termination date of July 15, 1997. The
$26.0 million contract locks in the 30 year Treasury at a rate of 6.56%.
(2) The remaining swap contract as of December 31, 1996, which matures in 2007,
provides for SCI to pay a fixed rate of 6.61% and receive a floating rate equal
to the three month LIBOR rate.
 
Deferred losses totalling $1.9 million on matured, expired or terminated
interest rate contracts were recorded on the balance sheet as of December 31,
1996. These losses related to the unwind of hedges placed for the May 1996 debt
offering (see Note 4) and are being amortized into interest expense over a
weighted-average amortization period of 10.8 years.
 
13. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES:
 
Environmental Matters
All of the properties acquired by SCI have been subjected to Phase I
environmental reviews. While some of these assessments have led to further
investigation and sampling, none of the environmental assessments has revealed,
nor is SCI aware of any environmental liability (including asbestos-related
liability) that SCI believes would have a material adverse effect on SCI's
business, financial condition or results of operations.
 
14. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS:
 
On January 22, 1997, SCI announced that it received a proposal from Security
Capital to exchange the REIT Manager and Client Services, the REIT manager's
property management affiliate, for Common Shares. As a result of the proposed
transaction, SCI would become an internally managed REIT, and Security Capital
would remain SCI's largest shareholder. SCI's Board has formed a special
committee comprised of independent Trustees to review the proposed transaction.
The proposed transaction is subject to approval by the special committee, the
full Board and SCI's shareholders.
 
On February 7, 1997, SCI completed a public offering of 4,025,000 Common
Shares. Net proceeds to SCI after underwriting discounts and offering costs
were $80.4 million.

On February 4, 1997, SCI issued $100.0 million of Series A 2015 Notes under its
Medium-Term Note program established in November 1996. The Series A 2015 Notes
bear interest at 7.81%, payable semi-annually on February 1 and August 1,
commencing August 1, 1997. Installments of principal will be paid annually on
each February 1, commencing February 1, 2010, in the following amounts: $20
million in 2010, $15 million in 2011, $15 million in 2012, $20 million in 2013,
$20 million in 2014 and $10 million in 2015. The Series A 2015 Notes have a
weighted-average life to maturity of 15.35 years and a final maturity extending
to 2015. The average effective interest cost is 7.73%, including all costs
associated with the offering plus $1.7 million in proceeds received on January
31, 1997 in connection with two interest rate protection agreements entered
into in August and November 1996 in anticipation of the debt offering. Both the
August 1996 and the November 1996 interest rate protection agreements were in
the form of a forward treasury lock agreement with an AA rated financial
institution. The August agreement included a notional principal amount of $30.0
million and a reference price of 99.653 on the thirty year Treasury Note. The
November agreement included a notional principal amount of $50.0 million and a
reference price of 101 29/32 on the ten year Treasury Note. The settlement date
on both contracts was January 31, 1997.
 
On October 11, 1996, and as amended on October 31, 1996, SCI filed a shelf
registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission regarding
the offering from time to time of $600 million in one or more series of its
debt securities, preferred shares of beneficial interest and Common Shares of
beneficial interest, and had approximately $78 million remaining under its
previous shelf registration statement. After the Series C Preferred Share
offering in November 1996 (see Note 6) and the offerings described above, as of
February 10, 1997, approximately $393 million in securities were available to
be issued under the shelf registration statement.

                                AUDITORS' REPORT
 
To the Shareholders of
SECURITY CAPITAL U.S. REALTY
Luxembourg
 
We have audited the consolidated financial statements, which consist of the
consolidated statement of net assets, the consolidated statement of operations,
the consolidated statement of changes in net assets, the consolidated statement
of cash flows, the consolidated statement of changes in shares outstanding, the
consolidated financial highlights for the year, the consolidated schedules of
investments and the notes to the consolidated financial statements of Security
Capital U.S. Realty (the "Company") as of and for the year ended December 31,
1996. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the
Board of Directors of the Company. Our responsibility is to express an opinion
on these consolidated financial statements based on our audit.
 
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing
(which are substantially consistent with US generally accepted auditing
standards). Those Standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements
are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test
basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated
financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting
principles used and significant estimates made by the Board of Directors of the
Company in preparing the consolidated financial statements, as well as
evaluating the overall consolidated financial statement presentation. We
believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
 
In our opinion, the attached consolidated financial statements described above
give, in conformity with the legal requirements and United States generally
accepted accounting principles, a true and fair view of the financial position
of the Company at December 31, 1996 and of the results of its operations and
changes in its net assets for the year then ended.
 
Supplementary information included in this annual financial report has been
reviewed in the context of our mandate but has not been subject to specific
audit procedures carried out in accordance with the standards described above.
Consequently, we express no opinion on such information. We have no observation
to make concerning such information in the context of the consolidated
financial statements taken as a whole.

                          SECURITY CAPITAL U.S. REALTY
 
                 NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
                              AT DECEMBER 31, 1996
 
NOTE 1--ORGANISATION
 
Security Capital U.S. Realty (the "Company") is a Luxembourg real estate
corporation organised as a "Societe d'Investissement a Capital Variable"
("SICAV"), an investment company with variable capital. The Company was formed
on July 7, 1995 for the purpose of owning and operating United States of
America real estate primarily through companies in which it has a strategic
ownership position. The Company owns its assets through its wholly owned
Luxembourg subsidiary, Security Capital Holdings S.A. ("HOLDINGS"). All
accounts of HOLDINGS have been consolidated with the Company and all
significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation.
References herein to USREALTY are to the consolidated entity consisting of
Security Capital U.S. Realty and Security Capital Holdings S.A., unless noted
otherwise.
 
The Company expects to request shareholder approval in the first half of 1997
to convert to a Societe d'Investissement a Capital Fixe, an investment company
with fixed capital, which should not materially alter the Company's operations
or prospects.
 
NOTE 2--SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles in the United States and with Luxembourg
regulatory requirements.
 
A. Market Value/Fair Value Basis of Presentation:
USREALTY accounts for its investments at market value or estimated fair value
(depending on whether the investment is publicly traded or not) as management
believes market/fair value more accurately reflects USREALTY's financial
position and results of operations as a real estate business. Thus, USREALTY's
investments in publicly traded companies are valued at market determined by
using closing market prices as of the balance sheet date. Investments in
private companies are valued at fair value generally determined at cost, or an
appropriate lower value if the investment is not progressing as envisioned. If
substantial additional capital is raised by the investee from independent third
parties in a private placement, then USREALTY values its investment at the
price at which that capital was raised when a substantial percentage of the new
subscriptions have been funded. Untraded convertible securities are carried at
their principal amount until convertible at an ascertainable value. The
CarrAmerica convertible preferred each are convertible into one share of
CarrAmerica common stock beginning April 1997, at which time they will be
reflected at their conversion value.
 
Under market/fair value accounting, unrealised gains or losses are determined
by comparing market/fair value of the securities held to the cost of such
securities. Unrealised gains or losses relating to changes in market/fair value
of USREALTY's investments are reported as a component of net earnings. Deferred
income taxes, if any, are recorded at the applicable statutory rate as the
estimate of taxes payable as if such gains were realised. Under current tax
laws, and in light of USREALTY's operating methods and plans, USREALTY's
investment gains generally are not subject to income taxes.
 
USREALTY's investments are generally long-term and USREALTY does not intend to
sell securities simply to realise gain thereon (other than in the case of
selected special opportunity investments).
 
At December 31, 1996, 17.1% of USREALTY's investments were private or untraded
securities valued at their fair value as determined by the Board of Directors,
using the methodology described above. This value may differ from the value
that would have been used had a trading market for these shares existed. The
valuation of assets assumes that any assets disposed of would be sold in an
orderly process; any forced sale of assets under short-term pressures, which is
not foreseen, could adversely affect realisable values.
 
B. Accounting for Investments and Income
All purchases and sales of publicly traded securities are recorded as of the
trade date (being the date that USREALTY's broker actually executes an order to
buy or sell). Purchases and sales of unlisted securities are recorded as of the
date the actual purchase or sale is completed. Dividend income is recorded on
the ex-dividend date for each dividend declared by an issuer. Dividends
received are presented net of withholding taxes, which totalled $5.6 million
during the twelve months ended December 31, 1996. The withholding tax is stated
net of

                          SECURITY CAPITAL U.S. REALTY
 
           NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
 
estimated refunds of $56,573. HOLDINGS is entitled to the refunds as the
withholding tax is not levied on the portion of dividends which is a return of
capital. Interest income (including interest on convertible subordinated
debentures issued by Security Capital Group Incorporated ("Security Capital"))
is recorded on the accrual basis. Interest received is also stated net of
withholding taxes, of which there were none in 1996. Realised gains and losses
on sales of shares are determined on the average cost method.
 
C. Cash and Cash Equivalents
USREALTY considers all cash on hand, demand deposits with financial
institutions and short-term, highly liquid investments with original maturities
of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
 
NOTE 3--INVESTMENTS
 
USREALTY will aim to have 65% to 85% of its assets deployed in strategic
ownership positions ("Strategic Investments"), and 10% to 35% invested in
special opportunity ownership positions, including up to 10% in securities of
Security Capital.
 
A. Strategic Investments
Strategic investments represent significant (minimum of 25% to a general
maximum of 49% of each issuer's fully diluted common stock outstanding) equity
ownership positions in public companies, or in private companies that will be
positioned to be taken public. With private companies which USREALTY sponsors,
it will frequently own substantially more than 50% of the voting shares until
such companies become publicly traded, at which time USREALTY's ownership will
begin to be diluted until it reaches 35% to 45% ownership levels. USREALTY will
be the largest shareholder of its strategic investees, have representation on
their Boards of Directors, and influence their operations and strategy.
Strategic investees are characterised by the perceived potential for a superior
market niche and the ultimate potential for market preeminence with a focused
strategy and product.
 
B. Special Opportunity Investments
(i) PUBLICLY-TRADED INVESTMENTS
 
"Publicly-Traded Investments" consist of ownership positions of less than 10%
of the fully diluted stock in publicly-traded United States real estate
investment trusts ("US REITS") and real estate companies. Publicly-traded
investments have and will take the form of either direct investments in, or
public market purchases of, shares of companies that USREALTY believes possess
the requisite fundamentals to generate strong cash flow growth and/or value
appreciation.
 
At December 31, 1996, USREALTY had $223.7 million (market value) of publicly-
traded investments in thirteen companies. From time to time, when deemed
appropriate, USREALTY may seek to increase a publicly-traded investment to a
strategic investment.
 
(ii) INVESTMENT IN SECURITY CAPITAL GROUP INCORPORATED.
 
USREALTY has a Special Opportunity Investment in securities of Security Capital
which, through wholly owned subsidiaries, owned approximately 39.4% of
USREALTY's total subscribed shares at December 31, 1996 (and may from time to
time purchase further shares on the open market and in new USREALTY offerings)
and is the sole shareholder of USREALTY's Operating Advisor. The purpose of
this investment is to provide USREALTY with the benefit of exposure to specific
niches within the apartment and industrial real estate sectors, as well as the
diversification benefits of fee income through Security Capital's real estate
services and advisory activities. USREALTY intends to invest up to 10% of its
assets in securities of Security Capital. USREALTY's investments in such
securities will primarily be made in general offerings by Security Capital, on
the same terms and conditions as all other investors in such offerings. To a
lesser extent, USREALTY may negotiate purchases from independent third parties
on an arm's-length basis. When and if Security Capital becomes traded on a
recognised securities market, USREALTY may purchase Security Capital securities
from third parties in open-market transactions. At December 31, 1996, USREALTY
had funded $22.5 million (representing 10,724.5 common shares and $11.25
million principal amount of 6.5% convertible subordinated debentures due 2016)
out of a total commitment of $110 million. The remaining commitment is expected
to be funded in the first half of 1997.

NOTE 4--ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE AND PREPAYMENTS
 
A. Deferred Costs
The Company expensed formation costs of $1,654,000 in 1996, which should have
been amortized over the useful life of 5 years under US GAAP. Additionally, the
Company expensed line of credit fees of $3.7 million in 1996 related to costs
incurred in connection with arranging USREALTY's $300 million line of credit
while US GAAP would require such costs to be amortized over the term of the
line of credit of 3 years. These departures from US GAAP in these financial
statements are not considered material given that the total effect is
approximately 1% of "Increase in net assets resulting from operations".
 
B. Accounts Receivable
The amounts included within accounts receivable and prepayments are as follows:

NOTE 6--ADVISORY AGREEMENT AND OPERATING EXPENSES
 
USREALTY has an advisory agreement with Security Capital (EU) Management S.A.
(the "Operating Advisor"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Security Capital. This
agreement requires the Operating Advisor to provide USREALTY with advice with
respect to the investment of assets of USREALTY. The Operating Advisor has
agreed to identify tangible investment opportunities in U.S. real estate
companies and evaluate such companies' competitive positions, management
expertise, strategic direction, financial strength and their prospects for
long-term sustainable per share cash flow growth. The Operating Advisor will
also advise USREALTY on obtaining board and committee representation and
management rights. The agreement is for a two-year term expiring July 1997. The
agreement automatically renews for successive two-year periods unless either
party gives notice they will not renew. The Operating Advisor subcontracts for
certain services through its wholly-owned affiliate, Security Capital (UK)
Management Limited (based in London), and another Security Capital subsidiary,
Security Capital Investment Research Incorporated (based in Chicago). The
Operating Advisor is entitled to a management fee, payable quarterly, at an
annual rate of 1.25% of gross invested assets, excluding investments in
Security Capital securities and investments of short-term cash and cash
equivalents. The amounts accrued at December 31, 1996 represent two months'
fees. USREALTY pays its own third-party operating and administrative expenses
and transaction costs, provided that the Operating Advisor's fee will be
reduced to the extent that third-party operating and administrative expenses
(but not transaction costs) exceed 0.25% of assets, excluding Security Capital
securities, per annum. Such third-party operating and administrative costs were
0.19% per annum in 1996.

                          SECURITY CAPITAL U.S. REALTY
 
           NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
 
 
USREALTY pays to the Custodian, Paying Agent, Domiciliary and Corporate Agent
as well as the Registrar and Transfer Agent, a fee in accordance with usual
practice in Luxembourg. Such fees are payable quarterly and are based on
USREALTY's gross assets.
 
NOTE 7--TAXATION
 
The Company, as separate from HOLDINGS, is not liable for any Luxembourg tax on
income. The Company is liable in Luxembourg for a capital tax of 0.06% per
annum of its net asset value. Cash dividends and interest received by the
Company or HOLDINGS on their investments may be subject to non-recoverable
withholding or other taxes in the countries of origin. U.S. withholding tax
rates of 15% were in effect for 1996. These are proposed to be increased to 30%
based on a new tax treaty; however, the proposed increase is the subject of
U.S. Senate committee review, and may not go into effect. If approved, the
increase would probably become effective January 1, 1999. Management does not
believe such an increase would materially adversely affect growth in net asset
value per share.
 
HOLDINGS, an ordinary corporate taxpayer under Luxembourg law, owns
substantially all of the consolidated group's interests in US REITs.
Corporations which are resident Luxembourg taxpayers are taxed on their
worldwide net income, determined on the basis of gross income less cost
incurred. Certain items of income and capital gains are excluded from the
calculation of income received for tax purposes, including income and capital
gains from certain investments which meet certain holding period (generally one
calendar year) and size requirements. HOLDINGS attempts to operate so as to
have the highest possible percentage of its investments qualify for the
exclusion. Interest accrued on advances from the Company to HOLDINGS are
deducted in determining HOLDINGS's taxable income.
 
Income paid from HOLDINGS to the Company is subject to various levels of tax.
Gross cash (but not accrued) interest payments from HOLDINGS to the Company,
which were $5,029,787 during the twelve months ended December 31, 1996, are
subject to withholding tax at a rate of 3.75% (which totalled $188,617 for the
twelve months to December 31, 1996). No dividends were paid.

NOTE 8--LINE OF CREDIT
 
The Company's wholly owned subsidiary, HOLDINGS, has a $400 million revolving
line of credit from a syndicate of European and international banks. The
earliest date on which this line of credit will expire is June 1999, subject to
annual extension with the consent of the lenders, but HOLDINGS has the right to
convert the then outstanding borrowings into a two-year term loan on that date,
with semi-annual amortisation payments to be made over the two-year period,
which effectively extends the final loan payment to June 2001. Borrowings bear
interest at the greater of United States prime or the federal funds rate plus
0.5% or, at HOLDINGS' option, LIBOR plus 1.75%. Additionally, there is a
commitment fee of 0.25% to 0.375% on the average undrawn balance of the line of
credit.
 
The amount of $2.99 million was paid to the syndicate of European and
international banks as arrangement and upfront fees as well as to cover the
costs of syndication.
 
The line of credit is secured by substantially all the assets of USREALTY.
HOLDINGS has pledged all securities owned by it as collateral for the line, and
the Company has guaranteed the line and pledged its shares in HOLDINGS as
collateral.

                          SECURITY CAPITAL U.S. REALTY
 
           NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
 
In February 1997, HOLDINGS received preliminary agreement from the lead lending
bank to increase the line of credit to $500 million and reduce the interest
rate to 1.50% over LIBOR, subject to certain conditions and approvals.
 
Average daily borrowings during the twelve months ended December 31, 1996 were
$84.9 million, at a weighted average interest rate of 7.18% per annum.
 
The line of credit requires USREALTY to continue to meet certain financial
covenants. At December 31, 1996, USREALTY was in compliance with all covenants.
 
NOTE 9--SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY
 
During the twelve months ended December 31, 1996, $987.3 million of equity
capital subscriptions were called by the Company and funded by investors. This
equity was partly raised through the completion of the funding of subscriptions
under the Company's initial $509.5 million private offering.
 
The equity was also raised through the June 1996 international public offering
where the Company accepted subscriptions for 22,244,420 shares: 13,112,000
shares through an underwritten public offering and 9,132,420 shares directly to
its principal shareholder, Security Capital. The Company contracted to receive
net proceeds per share of $10.95, equal to the net asset value per share on
June 26, 1996, the day the offering was priced. The transaction was closed on
July 2, 1996.
 
Additional equity was also raised through the November private offering where
the Company sold 24,115,805 shares. The Company contracted to receive net
proceeds per share of $12.32, equal to the net asset value per share on
November 15, 1996, the day the offering was priced. The transaction closed on
December 19, 1996.

To the Shareholders of
SECURITY CAPITAL U.S. REALTY
Luxembourg
 
We have audited the financial statements, which consist of the statement of net
assets, the statement of operations, the statement of changes in net assets and
the schedule of investments and the notes to the financial statements of
Security Capital U.S. Realty ("USREALTY") for the period ended December 31,
1995. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Board of
Directors of USREALTY. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audit.
 
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing
(which are substantially consistent with US generally accepted auditing
standards). Those Standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by the Board of Directors of USREALTY in preparing the financial
statements, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
 
In our opinion, the attached financial statements described above give, in
conformity with the legal requirements and United States generally accepted
accounting principles, a true and fair view of the financial position of
USREALTY at December 31, 1995 and the results of its operations and changes in
its net assets for the period then ended.
 
Supplementary information included in the annual report has been reviewed in
the context of our mandate but has not been subject to specific audit
procedures carried out in accordance with the standards described above.
Consequently, we express no opinion on such information. We have no observation
to make concerning such information in the context of the financial statements
taken as a whole.

                          SECURITY CAPITAL U.S. REALTY
 
             NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AT DECEMBER 31, 1995
 
NOTE 1--ORGANIZATION
 
Security Capital U.S. Realty ("USREALTY") is a Luxembourg real estate
corporation organized as a "Societed'investissement a Capital Variable"
(SICAV). USREALTY was formed on July 7, 1995 for the purpose of owning United
States of America real estate primarily through companies in which it has a
strategic ownership position. USREALTY owns its assets through its wholly-owned
Luxembourg subsidiary, Security Capital Holdings S.A. ("HOLDINGS"). All
accounts of HOLDINGS have been consolidated with US REALTY and all significant
intercompany transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation. References
herein to USREALTY are to the consolidated entity unless noted otherwise.
 
As of December 31, 1995, $509.50 million of equity capital subscriptions were
received, of which $62.95 million have been called and funded, with the balance
of $446.55 million available for future investments. The Board of Directors may
call these subscriptions at its discretion.
 
NOTE 2--SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
A. Fair Value Basis of Presentation:
USREALTY accounts for its investments at fair value as management believes fair
value more accurately reflects USREALTY's financial position and results of
operations as a real estate business. Thus USREALTY's investments in publicly
traded companies are valued at market determined by using closing market prices
as of the balance sheet date. Investments in private companies are valued at
fair value generally determined as cost, or an appropriate lower value if the
investment is not progressing as envisioned. If substantial additional capital
is raised by the investee from independent third parties in a private
placement, then USREALTY values its investment at the price at which that
capital was raised.
 
Under fair value accounting, unrealized gains (or losses) are determined by
comparing fair value of the securities held to the cost of such securities.
Unrealized gains or losses relating to changes in fair value of USREALTY's
investments are reported as a component of net earnings. Deferred income taxes,
if any, are recorded at the applicable statutory rate as the estimate of taxes
payable as if such gains were realized. Under current tax laws, USREALTY
investment gains generally are not subject to income taxes.
 
USREALTY's investments are generally long-term and it does not intend to sell
securities simply to realize gain thereon (other than in the case of special
opportunity investments).
 
At December 31, 1995, 96.75% of USREALTY's investments were private securities
valued at their fair value as determined by the Board of Directors, using the
methodology described above. This value may differ from the value that would
have been used had a trading market for these shares existed. The valuation of
assets assumes that any assets disposed of would be sold in an orderly process;
any forced sale of assets under short-term pressures, which is not foreseen,
could adversely affect realizable values.
 
B. Accounting for Investments and Income:
All purchases and sales of publicly-traded securities are recorded as of the
trade date (being the date that USREALTY's broker actually executes an order to
buy or sell). Purchases and sales of unlisted securities are recorded as of the
date the actual purchase or sale is completed. Dividend income is recorded on
the ex-dividend date for each dividend declared by an issuer. Interest income
is recorded on the accrual basis. Realized gains and losses on sales of shares
are determined on the identified cost method.
 
C. Organization Costs:
Costs totalling $1,801,533 associated with the formation of USREALTY and its
initial private placement have been deferred and are being amortized over five
years. These costs exceeded the $1.2 million estimated in USREALTY's private
offering due to an extended offering period and greater than anticipated
documentation costs for consummating the private offering.

         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AT DECEMBER 31, 1995 (CONTINUED)
 
NOTE 3--TAXATION
 
USREALTY, as separate from HOLDINGS, is not liable for any Luxembourg tax on
income. USREALTY is liable in Luxembourg for a tax of 0.06% per annum of its
net asset value. Cash dividends and interest received by USREALTY or HOLDINGS
on their investments may be subject to non-recoverable withholding or other
taxes in the countries of origin which are reflected as withholding taxes in
the statement of operations.
 
HOLDINGS, an ordinary corporate taxpayer under Luxembourg law, owns
substantially all of the consolidated group's interests in US REITs.
Corporations which are resident Luxembourg taxpayers are taxed on their
worldwide net income, determined on the basis of gross income less cost
incurred. Certain items of income and capital gains are excluded from the
calculation of income received for tax purposes, including income and capital
gains from REIT investments which meet certain holding period (generally one
calendar year) and size requirements. Substantially all of HOLDINGS's
investments should qualify for the exclusion. Interest accrued on advances from
USREALTY to HOLDINGS are deducted in determining HOLDINGS's taxable income.
 
Income paid from HOLDINGS to USREALTY is subject to various levels of tax. Cash
(but not accrued) interest payments from HOLDINGS to USREALTY, which were
$178,131, are subject to withholding tax at a rate of 3.75% and totalled $6,680
for 1995. No dividends were paid.
 
NOTE 4--INVESTMENTS
 
USREALTY plans to deploy 60-85% of its assets into long-term strategic
ownership positions and 10-25% into intermediate-term special opportunity
ownership positions and 0-10% into Security Capital Group securities.
 
The strategic investments represent significant (minimum of 25% to a general
maximum of 49% of each issuer's fully diluted common stock outstanding) equity
ownership positions in public companies, or in private companies that will be
positioned to be taken public, USREALTY will be the largest shareholder of its
strategic investees, have representation on their Boards of Directors, and
influence their operations and strategy. Strategic investees are characterized
by the potential for a superior market niche and the ultimate potential for
market preeminence with a focused strategy and product.
 
Special opportunity (less than 10% of the fully diluted stock) positions in US
public REITs and real estate companies have and will take the form of either
direct investments in, or public market purchases of, companies that possess
the requisite fundamentals to generate strong cash flow growth and/or value
appreciation.
 
Pacific Retail Trust ("PRT"), a privately-held REIT considered a strategic
investment, focuses in its target market on the development, acquisition,
operation and long-term ownership of income-producing retail properties. PRT
focuses, in the western United States, specifically on neighborhood shopping
centers with protected infill locations which are anchored by grocery and drug
stores. PRT will remarket and remerchandise its centers to energize the shop
space and grow cash flow. On October 19, 1995, USREALTY invested $53,000,000 at
$10.00 per share in PRT. At December 31, 1995, USREALTY owned 81.2% of PRT's
outstanding voting shares. USREALTY has committed to invest an additional $147
million in PRT at a price of $10 per share. A majority of PRT's directors are
USREALTY nominees.
 
On November 5, 1995, USREALTY and HOLDINGS signed an agreement to invest $250
million into common stock of Carr Realty Corporation ("Carr") at $21.50 per
share. (Carr stock closed at $24.25 per share on the New York Stock Exchange on
January 31, 1996.) This Company is the largest owner and operator of office
space in the Washington, D.C. market. It changed its name to CarrAmerica Realty
Corporation ("CarrAmerica") and is implementing a national strategy focused on
value-driven suburban office properties which will permit CarrAmerica to
provide the highest level of service to national, regional and local users of
corporate office space in the growth markets of the U.S. USREALTY and HOLDINGS
will make an initial investment of $140 million in April 1996. Coincident with
its initial investment, USREALTY will appoint two nominees to CarrAmerica's
board, with the right to appoint an additional two when the full $250 million
is invested.

                          SECURITY CAPITAL U.S. REALTY
 
         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AT DECEMBER 31, 1995 (CONTINUED)
USREALTY intends to invest up to a maximum of 10% of its total assets in
securities of Security Capital Group Incorporated ("Security Capital") which,
through wholly-owned subsidiaries, has subscribed for 39% of USREALTY's total
subscribed shares and is the sole shareholder of USREALTY's Advisor. USREALTY's
investments in such securities will primarily be made in general offerings by
Security Capital, on the same terms and conditions as all other investors in
such offerings. To a lesser extent, USREALTY may negotiate purchases from
independent third parties on an arms-length basis. When and if Security Capital
becomes traded on a recognized securities market. USREALTY may purchase
Security Capital securities from third parties in open-market transactions.
USREALTY's valuation of its investment in Security Capital will take into
account the cross ownership holdings between the companies.
 
NOTE 5--ADVISORY AGREEMENT
 
USREALTY has an advisory agreement with Security Capital (EU) Management S.A.
("Advisor"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Security Capital. The agreement
requires the Advisor to provide USREALTY with advice with respect to the
investment of assets of USREALTY. The Advisor will identify tangible investment
opportunities in US real estate companies and evaluate such companies'
competitive positions, management expertise, strategic direction, financial
strength and their prospects for long-term sustainable per share cash flow
growth. The Advisor will also advise USREALTY on obtaining board and committee
representation and management rights. The agreement is for a two year term
expiring July 1997. The agreement automatically renews for successive two year
periods unless either party gives notice they will not renew. The Advisor
subcontracts for certain services through its wholly-owned affiliate, Security
Capital (UK) Management Limited, and another Security Capital subsidiary,
Security Capital Investment Research Incorporated. The Advisor is entitled to a
management fee, payable monthly, at an annual rate of 1.25% of gross invested
assets, excluding investments in Security Capital securities and investments of
short-term cash and cash equivalents.
 
NOTE 6--OPERATING EXPENSES
 
USREALTY pays to the Custodian, Paying Agent, Domiciliary and Corporate Agent
as well as the Registrar and Transfer Agent, a fee in accordance with usual
practice in Luxembourg. Such fees are payable quarterly and are based on
USREALTY's gross assets.
 
Operating expenses, as defined in the prospectus, will be payable by USREALTY
to the extent that they fall below 0.25% per annum of the average daily value
of long-term investments of USREALTY. Any amounts exceeding 0.25% will be borne
by the Advisor.

         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AT DECEMBER 31, 1995 (CONTINUED)
 
NOTE 7--LINE OF CREDIT
 
USREALTY's wholly-owned subsidiary, HOLDINGS, received preliminary commitment
for a $150 million line of credit from Commerzbank International S.A.
Commerzbank proposes to syndicate the loan to an international bank group with
a view towards increasing the line of credit to $200 million.
 
The line of credit will bear interest at the annual rate of Libor plus 1.75%
or, at USREALTY's option, at the prime lending rate for major U.S. banks. The
line of credit will be secured by all assets owned by HOLDINGS, which
represents substantially all of USREALTY's assets. USREALTY will guarantee the
loan and secure its guarantee by pledging its stock in HOLDINGS.
 
In order to fund its initial investment in Pacific Retail Trust prior to
receiving subscription funds, and thereby comply with certain technical
requirements for an exemption from certain U.S. pension fund rules, USREALTY
borrowed $53 million from a subsidiary of Security Capital, which was repaid
upon receipt by USREALTY of its initial subscription amounts. USREALTY paid
interest on this loan (aggregating $162,628) at the prime rate for major U.S.
banks, which was the rate at which Security Capital borrowed the funds which it
loaned to USREALTY.

December 31, 1996 and the related statements of operations, shareholders'
equity, and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 1996 (not presented
separately herein). The financial statements are the responsibility of
Homestead Village Incorporated's management. Our responsibility is to express
an opinion on the financial statements 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 financial statements are free of
material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. 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.
 
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of Homestead Village Incorporated
at December 31, 1996, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for
the year ended December 31, 1996 in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.
