PART I
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
General
Highwoods/Forsyth Limited Partnership (the "Operating Partnership") is
managed by its general partner, Highwoods Properties, Inc. (the "Company"), a
self-administered and self-managed real estate investment trust ("REIT") that
began operations through a predecessor in 1978. Originally founded to oversee
the development, leasing and management of the 201-acre Highwoods Office Center
in Raleigh, North Carolina, the Operating Partnership has since evolved into one
of the largest owners and operators of suburban office and industrial properties
in the southeastern United States. Historically, the Operating Partnership's
real estate operations have been focused in the Raleigh-Durham, North Carolina
market, an area also known as the Research Triangle, one of the nation's premier
business centers. On June 14, 1994, the Company completed an initial public
offering of 8,510,000 shares of Common Stock in connection with the
reorganization of the Operating Partnership's predecessor, whereby the Operating
Partnership succeeded to the ownership of 36 suburban office buildings, four
service center properties, one warehouse facility and 94 acres of undeveloped
land (the "Formation Transaction"). As of December 31, 1996, the Operating
Partnership owned a portfolio of 292 in-service office and industrial properties
(the "Properties") and owned 238 acres (and had agreed to purchase an additional
311 acres) of undeveloped land suitable for future development (the "Development
Land"). An additional 14 properties (the "Development Projects"), which will
encompass approximately 1.0 million square feet, are currently under
development. The Properties consist of 181 suburban office properties and 111
industrial properties (including 74 service centers) located in 16 markets in
North Carolina, Florida, Tennessee, Georgia, Virginia, South Carolina and
Alabama.
The Operating Partnership is controlled by the Company as its sole general
partner and, as of March 14, 1997, the Company owned approximately 84% of the
limited partnership interests (the "Units") in the Operating Partnership. The
remaining Units are owned by limited partners (including certain officers and
directors of the Company), Each Unit may be redeemed by the holder thereof for
the cash value of one share of Common Stock, or, at the Company's option, one
share (subject to certain adjustments) of Common Stock. With each such exchange,
the number of Units owned by the Company and, therefore, the Company's
percentage interest in the Operating Partnership, will increase.
In addition to owning the Properties, the Development Projects and the
Development Land, the Operating Partnership provides leasing, property
management, real estate development, construction and miscellaneous tenant
services for the Properties as well as for third parties. The Operating
Partnership conducts its third-party fee-based services through Highwoods
Services, Inc. and Forsyth Properties Services, Inc., which are subsidiaries of
the Operating Partnership. During the year, the Operating Partnership sold its
third-party brokerage business in the Research Triangle and the Piedmont Triad.
The Operating Partnership was formed in North Carolina in 1994. The
Operating Partnership's executive offices are located at 3100 Smoketree Court,
Suite 600, Raleigh, North Carolina 27604, and its telephone number is (919)
872-4924. The Operating Partnership also maintains regional offices in
Winston-Salem and Charlotte, North Carolina; Richmond, Virginia; Nashville and
Memphis, Tennessee; Atlanta, Georgia; and Tampa and Boca Raton, Florida.
Business Objectives and Strategy of the Operating Partnership
The Operating Partnership seeks to maximize the total return to its Unit
holders (i) through contractual increases in rental rates from existing leases,
(ii) by renewing or re-leasing space with expiring leases at higher effective
rental rates, (iii) by increasing occupancy levels in properties, (iv) by
acquiring new properties, (v) by developing new properties, including properties
on the Development Land, and (vi) by providing a complete line of real estate
services to the Operating Partnership's tenants and to third parties. The
Operating Partnership believes that its in-house development, acquisition,
construction management, leasing and management services allow it to respond to
the many
3
<PAGE>
demands of its existing and potential tenant base, and enable it to provide its
tenants cost-effective services such as build-to-suit construction and space
modification, including tenant improvements and expansions. In addition, the
breadth of the Operating Partnership's capabilities and resources provides it
with market information not generally available and gives the Operating
Partnership increased access to development, acquisition and management
opportunities. The Operating Partnership believes that the operating
efficiencies achieved through its fully integrated organization also provide a
competitive advantage in setting its lease rates and pricing its other services.
The Operating Partnership's strategy has been to focus its real estate
activities in markets where it believes its extensive local knowledge gives it a
competitive advantage over other real estate developers and operators. As the
Operating Partnership has expanded into new markets, it has continued to
maintain this localized approach by combining with local real estate operators
with many years of development and management experience in their respective
markets. Also, in making its acquisitions, the Operating Partnership has sought
to employ those property-level managers who are experienced with the real estate
operations and the local market relating to the acquired properties, resulting
in 87% of the portfolio currently being managed on a day-to-day basis by
personnel that has had previous experience managing, leasing and/or developing
those properties for which they are responsible.
The Operating Partnership seeks to acquire suburban office and industrial
properties at prices below replacement cost that offer attractive returns,
including acquisitions of underperforming, high-quality assets in situations
offering opportunities for the Operating Partnership to improve such assets'
operating performance. In evaluating potential acquisition opportunities, the
Operating Partnership will continue to rely on the extensive experience of its
management and its research capabilities in considering a number of factors,
including: (i) the location of the property, (ii) the construction quality and
condition of the property, (iii) the occupancy and demand of properties of a
similar type in the market and (iv) the ability of the property to generate
returns at or above levels of expected growth. (See " -- Recent Developments"
for a discussion of the Operating Partnership's acquisition and development
activities during 1996.) The Operating Partnership also believes that the 549
acres of Development Land should provide it with a competitive advantage in its
future development activities.
The Operating Partnership may from time to time acquire properties from
property owners through the exchange of Units for the property owner's equity in
the acquired property. As discussed above, each Unit received by these property
owners is redeemable for cash from the Operating Partnership or, at the
Company's option, shares of Common Stock. In connection with the transactions,
the Operating Partnership may also assume outstanding indebtedness associated
with the acquired properties. The Operating Partnership believes that this
acquisition method may permit it to acquire properties at attractive prices from
property owners wishing to enter into tax-deferred transactions. The Operating
Partnership has acquired 115 properties using the foregoing method since its
inception, comprising 7.4 million rentable square feet.
The Operating Partnership is also committed to maintaining a capital
structure that will allow it to grow through development and acquisition
opportunities. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations -- Liquidity and Capital Resources."

(2) Net of approximately $21 million of cash held by Crocker.
A significant portion of the Operating Partnership's growth during 1996
resulted from its expansion into new markets. The Operating Partnership entered
12 new markets and established five divisional offices as a result of the
Crocker and the Eakin & Smith transactions (both transactions are described
below).
Eakin & Smith Transaction
On April 1, 1996, the Operating Partnership completed a business
combination with Eakin & Smith, Inc. and its affiliates ("Eakin & Smith")
combining their property portfolios, management teams and business operations
(the "Eakin & Smith Transaction"). Through the combination, the Operating
Partnership succeeded to the ownership of seven suburban office buildings
totaling 848,000 square feet, a 103,000-square-foot suburban office development
project and 18 acres of development land. Eakin & Smith's brokerage and property
management operations are held by a direct subsidiary of the Company. All the
properties and development land are located in Nashville, Tennessee. The
aggregate cost to the Operating Partnership of the Eakin & Smith Transaction,
including the completion of the in-process development project, was
approximately $84.9 million payable through the issuance of 537,138 Units, the
assumption of $37 million of indebtedness (with a weighted average fixed rate of
8.0%) and cash payments of approximately $33 million.
Crocker Transaction
On September 26, 1996, the Operating Partnership completed its acquisition
of Crocker Realty Trust, Inc. ("Crocker"). As a result of the transaction, the
Operating Partnership acquired 58 suburban office properties and 12 service
center properties (the "Crocker Properties") located in 15 southeastern markets
in Florida, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, Georgia, Virginia and
Alabama. The Crocker Properties encompass 5.7 million rentable square feet. The
total cost of the acquisition of all the outstanding shares of Crocker Realty
Trust, Inc. was approximately $565.8 million, which included cash payments for
stock and outstanding options and warrants of $322.8 million and the assumption
of $243 million of debt with an average rate of 8.6%. This indebtedness included
a $140 million mortgage note with a fixed rate of 7.9% (the "7.9% Mortgage
Note"). With the exception of
5
<PAGE>
the 7.9% Mortgage Note, the Operating Partnership has repaid substantially all
of such assumed indebtedness. The Operating Partnership believes that the merger
offered a unique investment opportunity for future growth by allowing the
Operating Partnership to expand and diversify its operations to growth-oriented
markets throughout the Southeast. In addition, the merger enhanced the Operating
Partnership's opportunities to engage in development projects and accretive
acquisitions, such as the 1997 Century Center and Anderson transactions (see
"Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations -- Recent Developments"), due to the inherent cost savings of
previously established local real estate management and infrastructure.

Financing Activity
In June 1996, the Company completed a 11,500,000-share public offering of
Common Stock (including 1,500,000 shares issued pursuant to the underwriters'
over allotment option). The net proceeds of the offering totaled $292.9 million
and, as required by the Operating Partnership's limited
6
<PAGE>
partnership agreement, were contributed to the Operating Partnership for
additional Units. The Operating Partnership used such proceeds primarily to fund
the acquisition of Crocker.
In July 1996, the Company sold an additional 250,000 shares of Common Stock
to underwriters who participated in the Company's 11,500,000-share offering. The
net proceeds of approximately $6.8 million were contributed to the Operating
Partnership.
On September 27, 1996, the Operating Partnership replaced a $140 million
credit facility with a $280 million unsecured revolving line of credit (the
"Revolving Loan") from a syndicate of lenders. The Revolving Loan requires
monthly payments of interest only with the balance of all principal and accrued
but unpaid interest due on October 31, 1999. The interest rate on the Revolving
Loan at year end was LIBOR plus 135 basis points and will adjust based on the
Operating Partnership's senior unsecured credit rating within a range of LIBOR
plus 100 basis points to LIBOR plus 175 basis points.
On December 2, 1996, the Operating Partnership issued $100 million of
6 3/4% notes due December 1, 2003, and $110 million of 7% notes due December 1,
2006. The proceeds were used to reduce amounts outstanding on the Revolving
Loan, to repay mortgage debt and to settle an interest rate swap agreement.
In December 1996, the Company completed a public offering of 2,587,500
shares of Common Stock (including 337,500 shares issued pursuant to the
underwriters' over allotment option) and a concurrent non-underwritten public
offering of 1,093,577 shares of Common Stock with an institutional investor. The
net proceeds from the two offerings totaled approximately $96.7 million and were
contributed to the Operating Partnership.
In connection with 1996 acquisitions, the Operating Partnership issued
807,608 Units valued at $22.1 million (based on the agreed-upon valuation of a
share of Common Stock at the time of the acquisition).
Competition
The Properties compete for tenants with similar properties located in the
Operating Partnership's markets primarily on the basis of location, rent
charged, services provided and the design and condition of the facilities. The
Operating Partnership also competes with other REITs, financial institutions,
pension funds, partnerships, individual investors and others when attempting to
acquire properties.
Employees
As of December 31, 1996, the Operating Partnership employed 260 persons, as
compared to 124 at December 31, 1995. The increase is primarily a result of the
Operating Partnership's geographic expansion.

manufacturing facility to a warehouse.

<PAGE>
All of the Development Land is zoned and available for office or industrial
development, substantially all of which has utility infrastructure already in
place. The Operating Partnership believes that the cost of developing the
Development Land could be financed with the funds available from the Operating
Partnership's existing credit facility, additional borrowings and offerings of
equity and debt securities. The Operating Partnership believes that its
commercially zoned and unencumbered land in existing business parks gives the
Operating Partnership an advantage in its future development activities over
other commercial real estate development companies in the Research Triangle, the
Piedmont Triad, Richmond, Nashville and Charlotte. Any future development,
however, is dependent on the demand for industrial or office space in the area,
the availability of favorable financing and other factors, and no assurance can
be given that any construction will take place on the Development Land. In
addition, if construction is undertaken on the Development Land, the Operating
Partnership will be subject to the risks associated with construction
activities, including the risk that occupancy rates and rents at a newly
completed property may not be sufficient to make the property profitable,
construction costs may exceed original estimates and construction and lease-up
may not be completed on schedule, resulting in increased debt service expense
and construction expense.
Option Land
The Operating Partnership has options to purchase or rights of first
refusal to purchase, lease or develop a total of 166 acres of undeveloped land
(the "Option Land") at locations adjacent to Properties in two existing business
parks. The Operating Partnership has long-term rights of first refusal to
purchase, lease or develop: (i) 147 acres in the Expressway Commerce Center,
which is targeted for development of warehouses and service center facilities
and (ii) 19 acres adjacent to Creekstone Park, which is targeted for service
center development. No assurance can be given that any of the Option Land will
be purchased or developed by the Operating Partnership.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
The Operating Partnership is a party to a variety of legal proceedings
arising in the ordinary course of its business. The Operating Partnership
believes that it is adequately covered by insurance and indemnification
agreements. Accordingly, none of such proceedings are expected to have a
material adverse effect on the financial position or results of operations
of the Operating Partnership.
ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

ITEM 5. MARKET FOR REGISTRANT'S EQUITY AND RELATED SECURITY HOLDER MATTERS
Market Information and Dividends
There is no established public trading market for the Operating Units. The
following table sets forth the cash distributions paid per Unit during each
quarter. Comparable cash distributions are expected in the future. As of
March 18, 1997, there were 112 record holders of Units.
<TABLE>
<S> <C> <C>
1996 Distributions 1995 Distributions
Quarter Ended
December 31 $.48 $ .45
September 30 .48 .45
June 30 .48 .45
March 31 .45 .425
</TABLE>
On February 4, 1997, the Operating Partnership declared a quarterly cash
distribution of .48 per Unit payable on February 21, 1997 to Unit holders of
record on February 14, 1997.
Sales of Unregistered Securities
In connection with the acquisition of real estate, the Operating
Partnership frequently issues Units to sellers of real estate in reliance on
exemptions from registration under the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Securities
Act"). In 1996, the Operating Partnership issued 807,608 Units in offerings
exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. The Operating
Partnership exercised reasonable care to assure that each of the offerees of
Units in 1996 were "accredited investors" under Rule 501 of the Securities Act
and that the investors were not purchasing the Units with a view to their
distribution. Specifically, the Operating Partnership relies on the exemptions
provided by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act or Rule 506 of the rules
promulgated by the Commission under the Securities Act.

ITEM 6. SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA
The following table sets forth selected financial and operating
information for the Operating Partnership as of December 31, 1996, 1995 and
1994, for the years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995, and for the period from
June 14, 1994 (commencement of operations) to December 31, 1994. The
following table also sets forth selected financial and operating information
on a historical basis for the Highwoods Group (the predecessor to the Operating
Partnership) as of and for each of the years in the two-year period ended
December 31, 1993, and for the period from January 1, 1994, to June 13, 1994.
The pro forma operating data for the year ended December 31, 1994 assumes
completion of the initial public offering and the Formation Transaction as of
January 1, 1994.
Due to the impact of the initial formation of the Operating Partnership
and the initial public offering in 1994, the second and third offerings in
1995 and the transactions more fully described in "Management's Discussion and
Analysis--Overview and Background," the historical results of operations for
the year ended December 31, 1995 and the period from June 14, 1994 to
December 31, 1994 may not be comparable to the current period results of
operations.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
Overview and Background
The Highwoods Group (the predecessor to the Operating Partnersip) was
comprised of 13 office properties and one warehouse facility (the
"Highwoods-Owned Properties"), 94 acres of development land and the management,
development and leasing business of Highwoods Properties Company ("HPC"). On
June 14, 1994, following completion of the Company's initial public offering,
the Company, through a business combination involving entities under varying
common ownership, succeeded to the Highwoods-Owned Properties, HPC's real estate
business and 27 additional office properties owned by unaffiliated parties (such
combination being referred to as the "Formation Transaction"). The Company is
the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership. The Operating Partnership
owns the Company's Properties and conducts substantially all of its operations.
The Operating Partnership acquired three additional Properties in 1994 after the
Formation Transaction.
In February 1995, the Operating Partnership expanded into other North
Carolina markets and diversified its portfolio to include industrial and service
center properties with its $170 million, 57-Property business combination with
Forsyth Partners (the "Forsyth Transaction"). During the year ended December 31,
1995, the Operating Partnership acquired 144 Properties encompassing 6,357,000
square feet, at an initial cost of $369.9 million.
During the year ended December 31, 1996, the Operating Partnership acquired
91 Properties encompassing 7,325,500 square feet at an initial cost of $690.4
million. See "Business -- Recent Developments" for a description of the
acquisition of Crocker and the Eakin & Smith Transaction and for a table
summarizing all mergers and acquisitions completed during the year ended
December 31, 1996.
Given the effect of the acquisitions discussed above, the results of the
Highwoods Group for the period from January 1, 1994, to June 13, 1994, are not
comparable to the current operations of the Operating Partnership.
This information should be read in conjunction with the accompanying
financial statements and the related notes thereto.
The pro forma operating data for the year ended December 31, 1994 assumes
completion of the initial public offering and the Formation Transaction as of
January 1, 1994.
Results of Operations
Comparison of 1996 to 1995
Revenue from rental operations increased $54.8 million, or 77.0% from $71.2
million in 1995 to $126.0 million in 1996. The increase is primarily a result of
revenue from newly acquired and developed properties. Interest and other income
increased 173.9% from $2.3 million in 1995 to $6.3 million in 1996. This
increase is a result of the excess cash and cash equivalents resulting from the
receipt of the net proceeds from the Company's offering of Common Stock
completed in the summer of 1996, and an increase in third-party management and
leasing income.
Rental operating expenses increased $16.7 million, or 98.2%, from $17.0
million in 1995 to $33.7 million in 1996. The increase is due to the addition of
8.2 million square feet to the in-service portfolio. Rental expenses as a
percentage of related rental revenues increased from 23.9% for the year ended
December 31, 1995 to 26.7% for the year ended December 31, 1996. The increase is
a result of an increase in the percentage of office properties in the portfolio;
which have fewer "triple net" leases, and approximately $400,000 in additional
expenses related to the severe winter weather in 1996 and the hurricane in
September of the same year.
Depreciation and amortization for the years ended December 31, 1996 and
1995 was $21.1 million and $11.1 million, respectively. The increase of $10.0
million or 90.1% is due to a 128.8% increase in depreciable assets. Interest
expense increased $11.5 million or 83.9% from $13.7 million in 1995 to $25.2
million in 1996. The increase is attributable to the increase in outstanding
debt related to the
24
<PAGE>
Operating Partnership's acquisition and development activities. Interest expense
for the years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995 included $1.9 million and $1.6
million, respectively, of non-cash deferred financing costs and amortization of
the costs related to the Operating Partnership's interest rate protection
agreements.
General and administrative expenses increased from 3.8% of rental revenue
in 1995 to 4.5% in 1996. This increase is attributable to the addition of four
regional offices in Nashville, Memphis, Tampa, and Boca Raton as a result of
acquisitions. The duplication of certain personnel costs in the third quarter
during the acquisition of Crocker also contributed to higher general and
administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 1996. Such duplicative
costs were eliminated in the fourth quarter as the Operating Partnership
realized the planned synergies from the merger.
Income before extraordinary item equaled $46.7 million and $28.9 million
for the years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively. The extraordinary
items consisted of prepayment penalties incurred in connection with the
extinguishment of certain debt assumed in the Crocker merger in 1996 and the
Forsyth Transaction in 1995.
Comparison of 1995 to Pro Forma 1994
For the year ended December 31, 1995 total revenues were comprised of $71.2
million of rental revenues and $2.3 million of interest and other income. For
the year ended December 31, 1994 pro forma total revenues included $33.6 million
of rental revenues, $200,000 in distributions from Highwoods Services, Inc. and
$456,000 of interest income.
The $37.6 million increase in rental income from pro forma 1994 to 1995 was
primarily attributable to the rental revenue derived from properties acquired
during 1995. Revenues from the Operating Partnership's initial portfolio of 41
properties increased by 2.1% over the comparable 1994 period. Vacancies in
Smoketree Tower and Cape Fear partially offset rental rate increases and
occupancy gains in other properties.
The increase in interest income from $465,000 in pro forma 1994 to $2.3
million in 1995 was due primarily to the increase in short-term investments
resulting from the receipt of the net proceeds of the Company's 4,774,989-share
offering in August 1995.
Rental property expenses represented 23.9% of rental revenues in 1995
compared to 28.8% for pro forma 1994. The decline in this ratio was a result of
increased operating efficiencies and the addition of revenues from industrial
properties in 1995. Industrial properties are generally leased on a "triple net"
basis, with the tenant paying all operating costs.
General and administrative expenses increased from $1.1 million or 3.3% of
total revenues for pro forma 1994 to $2.7 million or 3.8% of total revenues for
1995. The increase in general and administrative expenses was a result of the
growth of the Operating Partnership's operations into the Piedmont Triad and
Richmond regions.
Interest expense increased from $5.6 million for pro forma 1994 to $13.7
million for 1995. The increase in interest expense was a result of an increased
debt level during 1995 compared to 1994 as the Operating Partnership financed a
portion of its 1995 acquisition activity through the use of debt financing. The
Operating Partnership's interest expense for 1995 included a benefit of $385,000
as a result of an interest rate protection agreement.
Depreciation and amortization expense increased from $4.6 million for pro
forma 1994 to $11.1 million for 1995. The increase in depreciation and
amortization expense reflects the increase in real estate assets during 1995.
Income before extraordinary item equaled $28.9 million or $1.55 per Unit
for 1995 compared to $13.2 million or $1.47 per Unit for pro forma 1994.
In connection with the repayment of indebtedness related to the Forsyth
Transaction, the Operating Partnership incurred prepayment penalties of $1.0
million in 1995. This amount was recorded as an extraordinary item and is
presented in the 1995 financial statements ($1,068,000).
25
<PAGE>
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Statement of Cash Flows
The Operating Partnership generated $69.9 million in cash flows from
operating activities and $420.5 million in cash flows from financing activities
for the year ended December 31, 1996. These combined cash flows of $490.4
million were used to fund $486.6 million of investing activities, which were
primarily additions to real estate assets and the cash purchase price for the
net assets of Crocker.
Capitalization
Mortgage and notes payable at December 31, 1996 totaled $555.9 million and
were comprised of $296.9 million of secured indebtedness with an average rate of
8.0% and $259.0 million of unsecured indebtedness with an average rate of 7.1%.
All of the mortgage and notes payable outstanding at December 31, 1996 were
either fixed rate obligations or variable rate obligations covered by interest
rate protection agreements (see below). The weighted average life of the
indebtedness was approximately 6.5 years at December 31, 1996.
The Company and the Operating Partnership completed the following financing
activities during the year ended December 31, 1996:
(Bullet) During June 1996, the Company completed a 11,500,000-share public
offering of Common Stock (including 1,500,000 shares issued
pursuant to the underwriters' over allotment option). The
Operating Partnership used the net proceeds, which totaled $292.9
million, primarily to fund the Crocker acquisition.
(Bullet) In July 1996, the Company sold an additional 250,000 shares of
Common Stock to underwriters who participated in the Company's
11,500,000-share offering. The net proceeds from this offering
were approximately $6.8 million and were contributed to the
Operating Partnership.
(Bullet) In connection with the acquisition of Crocker, the Operating
Partnership assumed a $140 million mortgage note (the "7.9%
Mortgage Note"). The note is secured by 46 Properties, which were
acquired in the merger and are held by a subsidiary of the
Operating Partnership.
(Bullet) On September 27, 1996, the Operating Partnership replaced a $140
million credit facility with a $280 million unsecured revolving
line of credit (the "Revolving Loan") from a syndicate of lenders.
The Revolving Loan requires monthly payments of interest only with
the balance of all principal and accrued but unpaid interest due
on October 31, 1999. The interest rate on the Revolving Loan at
year end was LIBOR plus 135 basis points and will adjust based on
the Company's senior unsecured credit rating within a range of
LIBOR plus 100 basis points to LIBOR plus 175 basis points.
(Bullet) On December 2, 1996, the Operating Partnership issued $100 million
of 6 3/4% notes due December 1, 2003, and $110 million of 7% notes
due December 1, 2006 (collectively, the "Public Notes"). The
proceeds were used to reduce amounts outstanding on the revolving
loan, to repay mortgage debt and to settle an interest rate swap
agreement.
(Bullet) In December 1996, the Company completed a public offering of
2,587,500 shares of Common Stock (including 337,500 shares issued
pursuant to the underwriters' over allotment option) and a
concurrent non-underwritten public offering of 1,093,577 shares of
Common Stock with an institutional investor. The net proceeds from
the two offerings totaled approximately $96.7 million and were
contributed to the Operating Partnership.
(Bullet) In connection with the 1996 acquisitions, the Operating
Partnership issued 807,608 Units valued at $22.1 million (based on
the agreed-upon valuation of a share of Common Stock at the time
of the acquisition).
Additional information regarding the 7.9% Mortgage Note, the Public Note and the
Revolving Loan is set forth in the notes related to the accompanying financial
statements.
26
<PAGE>
To protect the Operating Partnership from increases in interest expense due
to changes in the variable rate, the Operating Partnership: (i) purchased an
interest rate cap limiting its exposure to an increase in interest rates
(one-month LIBOR plus 135 basis points) to 7.60% with respect to $80 million of
the $280 million Revolving Loan, and (ii) entered into interest rate swaps that
limit its exposure to an increase in the interest rates to 7.24% in connection
with the $34 million of variable rate mortgages. The interest rate on all such
variable rate debt is adjusted at monthly intervals, subject to the Operating
Partnership's interest rate protection program. Payments received from the
counterparties under the interest rate protection agreements were $167,000,
$385,000 and $25,000 for 1996, 1995 and 1994, respectively. The Operating
Partnership is exposed to certain losses in the event of non-performance by the
counterparties under the cap and swap arrangements. The counterparties are major
financial institutions and are expected to perform fully under the agreements.
However, if they were to default on their obligations under the arrangements,
the Operating Partnership could be required to pay the full rate under the
Revolving Loan and the variable rate mortgages, even if such rate were in excess
of the rate in the cap and swap agreements. In addition, the Operating
Partnership may incur other variable rate indebtedness in the future. Increases
in interest rates on its indebtedness could increase the Operating Partnership's
interest expense and could adversely affect the Operating Partnership's cash
flow and its ability to pay expected distributions to Unit holders.
Historically, rental revenue has been the principal source of funds to pay
operating expenses, debt service and capital expenditures, excluding
non-recurring capital expenditures. In addition, construction management,
maintenance, leasing and management fees have provided sources of cash flow.
Management believes that the Operating Partnership will have access to the
capital resources necessary to expand and develop its business. To the extent
that the Operating Partnership's cash flow from operating activities is
insufficient to finance its acquisition costs and other capital expenditures,
including development costs, the Operating Partnership expects to finance such
activities through the Revolving Loan and other debt and equity financing.
The Operating Partnership presently has no plans for major capital
improvements to the existing properties, other than a $4 million renovation of a
17-year old office property and normal recurring non-revenue enhancing
expenditures. The Operating Partnership expects to meet its short-term liquidity
requirements generally through its working capital and net cash provided by
operating activities along with the previously discussed Revolving Loan. The
Operating Partnership expects to meet certain of its financing requirements
through long-term secured and unsecured borrowings and the issuance of debt
securities or additional equity securities of the Operating Partnership. In
addition, the Operating Partnership anticipates utilizing the Revolving Loan
primarily to fund construction and development activities. The Operating
Partnership does not intend to reserve funds to retire existing mortgage
indebtedness or indebtedness under the Revolving Loan upon maturity. Instead,
the Operating Partnership will seek to refinance such debt at maturity or retire
such debt through the issuance of additional equity or debt securities. The
Operating Partnership anticipates that its available cash and cash equivalents
and cash flows from operating activities, together with cash available from
borrowings and other sources, will be adequate to meet the capital and liquidity
needs of the Operating Partnership in both the short and long-term. However, if
these sources of funds are insufficient or unavailable, the Operating
Partnership's ability to make the expected distributions discussed below may be
adversely affected.
Recent Developments
Century Center Transaction
On January 9, 1997, the Operating Partnership acquired the 17-building
Century Center Office Park, four affiliated industrial properties and 20 acres
of land for development located in suburban Atlanta, Georgia (the "Century
Center Transaction"). The properties total 1.6 million rentable square feet and,
as of December 31, 1996, were 99% leased. The cost of the Century Center
Transaction was $55.6 million in Units (valued at $29.25 per Unit, the market
value of a share of Common Stock as of the signing of a letter of intent for the
Century Center Transaction), the assumption of $19.4 million of
27
<PAGE>
secured debt and a cash payment of $53.1 million, drawn from the Operating
Partnership's $280 million Revolving Loan. All Units issued in the transaction
are subject to restrictions on transfer and redemption. Such restrictions are
scheduled to expire over a three-year period in equal annual installments
commencing one year from the date of issuance.
Century Center Office Park is located on approximately 77 acres, of which
approximately 61 acres are controlled under long-term fixed rental ground leases
that expire in 2058. The rent under the leases is approximately $180,000 per
year with scheduled 10% increases in 1999 and 2009. The leases do not contain a
right to purchase the subject land.
The Operating Partnership estimates a first-year net operating income from
the properties acquired in the Century Center Transaction of $13.3 million. See
" -- Disclosure Regarding Forward-looking Statements" below.
Anderson Transaction
On February 12, 1997, the Operating Partnership acquired a portfolio of
industrial, office and undeveloped properties in Atlanta from Anderson
Properties, Inc. and affiliates (the "Anderson Transaction"). The Anderson
Transaction involved 22 industrial properties and six office properties totaling
1.6 million rentable square feet, three industrial development projects totaling
402,000 square feet and 137 acres of land for development. The in-service
properties were 94% leased as of December 31, 1996. The development projects
have a cost-to-date of $4.6 million and are expected to be completed during
1997.
The cost of the Anderson Transaction consisted of the issuance of $22.9
million of Units (valued at $29.25 per Unit, the market value of a share of
Common Stock as of the signing of a letter of intent relating to the
transaction), the assumption of $7.8 million of mortgage debt and a cash payment
of $37.7 million. The cash amount does not include $11.1 million expected to be
paid to complete the three development projects. Approximately $5.5 million of
the Units are newly created Class B Units, which differ from other Units in that
they are not eligible for cash distributions from the Operating Partnership. The
Class B Units will convert to regular Units in 25% annual installments
commencing one year from the date of issuance. Prior to such conversion, such
Units will not be redeemable for cash or Common Stock. All other Units to be
issued in the transaction are also subject to restrictions on transfer or
redemption. Such lock-up restrictions will expire over a three-year period in
equal annual installments commencing one year from the date of issuance.
The Operating Partnership estimates a first-year net operating income from
the properties of $5.7 million. See "Disclosure Regarding Forward-looking
Statements" below.
Preferred Stock Offering
On February 7, 1997 the Company issued 125,000 shares of 8 5/8% perpetual
preferred stock for $1,000 per share. The net proceeds of $121.7 million were
contributed to the Operating Partnership in exchange for preferred units, which
have the same economic terms as the preferred stock. Such proceeds were used to
reduce existing indebtedness and fund the Anderson Transaction. The preferred
stock is not redeemable prior to February 2027. The preferred stock is not
subject to any sinking fund or mandatory redemption and is not convertible into
any other securities of the Company.
Possible Environmental Liabilities
Under various Federal, state and local laws, ordinances and regulations,
such as the Comprehensive Environmental Response Compensation and Liability Act
or "CERCLA," and common laws, an owner or operator of real estate is liable for
the costs of removal or remediation of certain hazardous or toxic substances on
or in such property as well as certain other costs, including governmental fines
and injuries to persons and property. Such laws often impose such liability
without regard to whether the owner or operator knew of, or was responsible for,
the presence of such hazardous or toxic substances. The presence of such
substances, or the failure to remediate such substances properly, may adversely
affect the owner's or operator's ability to sell or rent such property or to
borrow using such
28
<PAGE>
property as collateral. Persons who arrange for the disposal or treatment of
hazardous or toxic substances may also be liable for the costs of removal or
remediation of such substances at a disposal or treatment facility, whether or
not such facility is owned or operated by such person. Certain environmental
laws impose liability with respect to the release and maintenance of
asbestos-containing materials ("ACM"), and third parties may seek recovery from
owners or operators of real property for personal injuries associated with
asbestos-containing materials. A number of Operating Partnership properties
contain ACM or material that is presumed to be ACM. In connection with the
ownership and operation of its properties, the Operating Partnership may be
liable for such costs. In addition, it is not unusual for property owners to
encounter on-site contamination caused by off-site sources, and the presence of
hazardous or toxic substances at a site in the vicinity of a property could
require the property owner to participate in remediation activities in certain
cases or could have an adverse effect on the value of such property.
As of the date hereof, substantially all of the Properties have been
subjected to a Phase I environmental assessment. These assessments have not
revealed, nor is management of the Operating Partnership aware of, any
environmental liability that it believes would have a material adverse effect on
the Operating Partnership's financial position, operations or liquidity taken as
a whole. This projection, however, could prove to be incorrect depending on
certain factors. For example, the assessments may not reveal all environmental
liabilities, or may underestimate the scope and severity of environmental
conditions observed, with the result that there may be material environmental
liabilities of which the Operating Partnership is unaware or, material
environmental liabilities may have arisen after the assessments were performed
of which the Operating Partnership is unaware. In addition, assumptions
regarding groundwater flow and the existence and source of contamination are
based on available sampling data, and there are no assurances that the data is
reliable in all cases. Moreover, there can be no assurance that (i) future laws,
ordinances or regulations will not impose any material environmental liability
or (ii) the current environmental condition of the Properties will not be
affected by tenants, by the condition of land or operations in the vicinity of
the Properties, or by third parties unrelated to the Operating Partnership.
Some tenants use or generate hazardous substances in the ordinary course of
their respective businesses. These tenants are required under their leases to
comply with all applicable laws and are responsible to the Operating Partnership
for any damages resulting from the tenants' use of the property. The Operating
Partnership is not aware of any material environmental problems resulting from
tenants' use or generation of hazardous substances. There are no assurances that
all tenants will comply with the terms of their leases or remain solvent and
that the Operating Partnership may not at some point be responsible for
contamination caused by such tenants.
Compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act
Under the Americans with Disabilities Act (the "ADA"), all public
accommodations and commercial facilities are required to meet certain Federal
requirements related to access and use by disabled persons. These requirements
became effective in 1992. Compliance with the ADA requirements could require
removal of access barriers, and non-compliance could result in imposition of
fines by the U.S. government or an award of damages to private litigants.
Although the Operating Partnership believes that the Properties are
substantially in compliance with these requirements, the Operating Partnership
may incur additional costs to comply with the ADA. Although the Operating
Partnership believes that such costs will not have a material adverse effect on
the Operating Partnership, if required changes involve a greater expenditure
than the Operating Partnership currently anticipates, the Operating
Partnership's results of operations, liquidity and capital resources could be
materially adversely affected.
Funds From Operations and Cash Available for Distributions
The Operating Partnership considers Funds from Operations ("FFO") to be a
useful financial performance measure of its operating performance because,
together with net income and cash flows, FFO provides investors with an
additional basis to evaluate its ability to incur and service debt and to fund
acquisitions and other capital expenditures. Funds from Operations does not
represent net income or cash flows from operations as defined by GAAP, and FFO
should not be considered as an
29
<PAGE>
alternative to net income as an indicator of the Operating Partnership's
operating performance or as an alternative to cash flows as a measure of
liquidity. Funds from Operations does not measure whether cash flow is
sufficient to fund all of the Operating Partnership's cash needs including
principal amortization, capital improvements and distributions to stockholders.
Funds from Operations does not represent cash flows from operating, investing or
financing activities as defined by GAAP. Further, FFO as disclosed by other
REITs may not be comparable to the Operating Partnership's calculation of FFO,
as described below. Funds from operations and cash available for distributions
should not be considered as alternatives to net income as an indication of the
Operating Partnership's performance or to cash flows as a measure of liquidity.
Funds from Operations means net income (computed in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles) excluding gains (or losses) from debt
restructuring and sales of property, plus depreciation and amortization, and
after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. In March
1995, the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT")
issued a clarification of the definition of FFO. The clarification provides that
amortization of deferred financing costs and depreciation of non-real estate
assets are no longer to be added back to net income in arriving at FFO. Cash
available for distribution is defined as funds from operations reduced by
non-revenue enhancing capital expenditures for building improvements and tenant
improvements and lease commissions related to second generation space.
Funds from operations and cash available for distribution for the years
ended December 31, 1996 and 1995 are summarized in the following table (in
thousands):

</TABLE>
Inflation
In the last five years, inflation has not had a significant impact on the
Operating Partnership because of the relatively low inflation rate in the
Operating Partnership's geographic areas of operation. Most of the leases
require the tenants to pay their pro rata share of operating expenses, including
common area maintenance, real estate taxes and insurance, thereby reducing the
Operating Partnership's exposure to increases in operating expenses resulting
from inflation. In addition, many of the leases are for terms of less than seven
years, which may enable the Operating Partnership to replace existing leases
with new leases at a higher base if rents on the existing leases are below the
then-existing market rate.

Disclosure Regarding Forward-looking Statements
The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides a "safe
harbor" for forward-looking statements to encourage companies to provide
prospective information about their companies without fear of litigation so long
as those statements are identified as forward-looking and are accompanied by
meaningful cautionary statements identifying important factors that could cause
actual results to differ materially from those projected in the statement.
Accordingly, the Operating Partnership hereby identifies the following important
factors that could cause the Operating Partnership's actual financial results to
differ materially from those projected by the Operating Partnership in
forward-looking statements:
(i) unexpected increases in development of office or industrial
properties in the Operating Partnership's markets;
(ii) deterioration in the financial condition of tenants;
(iii) construction costs of properties exceeding original estimates;
(iv) delays in the completion of development projects or acquisitions;
(v) delays in leasing or releasing space;
(vi) incorrect assessments of (or changes in) the environmental
condition of the Operating Partnership's properties;
(vii) unexpected increases in interest rates; and
(viii) loss of key executives.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS
TO THE OWNERS
HIGHWOODS/FORSYTH LIMITED PARTNERSHIP
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of
Highwoods/Forsyth Limited Partnership as of December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the
related consolidated statements of income, partners' capital, and cash flows for
each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 1996 and for the period
from June 14, 1994 (commencement of operations) to December 31, 1994. Our audits
also included the financial statement schedule listed in the Index at Item
14(a). These financial statements and schedule are the responsibility of the
Operating Partnership's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion
on these financial statements and 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 consolidated financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of
Highwoods/Forsyth Limited Partnership at December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the
consolidated results of its operations and cash flows for each of the two years
in the period ended December 31, 1996 and for the period from June 14, 1994
(commencement of operations) to December 31, 1994 in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles. Also, in our opinion, the 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.

HIGHWOODS/FORSYTH LIMITED PARTNERSHIP
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 1996
1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Organization and Formation of the Company
Highwoods/Forsyth Limited Partership (the "Operating Partnership" formerly
Highwoods Realty Limited Partnership), commenced operations on June 14, 1994
when Highwoods Properties, Inc. (the "Company") completed an initial public
offering (the "Initial Public Offering") and issued 7.4 million shares of Common
Stock (plus 1.1 million shares subsequently issued pursuant to the underwriters'
over-allotment option). As of December 31, 1996, the Operating Partnership owned
292 properties consisting of 181 suburban office buildings, 111 industrial
properties and 238 acres of undeveloped land suitable for future development.
The following transactions (the "Formation Transactions") occurred in
connection with the Initial Public Offering:
(Bullet) The Company consummated various purchase agreements to acquire
certain interests in 41 properties, including 27 properties which
were not owned by the predecessor to the Company and the Operating
Partnership (the "Highwoods Group") prior to the Initial Public
Offering.
For the 14 properties previously owned by the Highwoods Group,
negative net assets of approximately $9,272,000 were contributed
to the Operating Partnership at their historical cost.
Approximately $8,400,000 was distributed to non-continuing
partners of the Highwoods Group for their partnership interest in
the 14 properties. For the 27 properties not owned by the
Highwoods Group, the Operating Partnership issued approximately
$4,200,000 of Units, assumed $54,164,000 of debt and paid
$82,129,000 in cash. These 27 properties were recorded at their
purchase price using the purchase method of accounting.
(Bullet) The Company became the sole general partner of the Operating
Partnership, by contributing its ownership interests in the 41
properties and its third-party fee business and all but
$10,400,000 of the net proceeds of the Initial Public Offering in
exchange for an approximate 88.3% interest in the Operating
Partnership.
(Bullet) The Operating Partnership executed various option and purchase
agreements whereby it paid approximately $81,352,000 in cash,
issued 1,054,664 redeemable units in the Operating Partnership
("Units") and assumed approximately $118,111,000 of indebtedness
in exchange for fee simple interests in the 41 properties and the
development land.
(Bullet) The Operating Partnership contributed the third-party management
and development business and the third-party leasing business to
Highwoods Services, Inc. (formerly Highwoods Realty Services, Inc.
and Highwoods Leasing Company) in exchange for 100% of each
company's non-voting common stock and 1% of their voting common
stock.
As a result of common stock offerings and subsequent contributions of
capital to the Operating Partnership by the Company, the Company owned
approximately 89% of the Partnership Units in the Operating Partnership as of
December 31, 1996 (including its 1% general partnership interest in the
Operating Partnership). These Units are classified as General partners' capital
and Limited partners' capital in the accompanying Statements of Partners'
Capital. The Company's capital accounts are adjusted to reflect the 1% general
partnership interest with the adjustments at book value presented as transfer of
"limited partners' interest" in the Statements of Partners' Capital.
Generally one year after issuance (the "lock-up period"), the Operating
Partnership is obligated to redeem each Redeemable Operating Partnership Unit at
the request of the holder thereof for cash, provided that the Company at its
option may elect to acquire any such Unit presented for redemption by exchanging
cash (equal to the value of one share of Common Stock) or one share of Common
F-8
<PAGE>
HIGHWOODS/FORSYTH LIMITED PARTNERSHIP
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (Continued)
1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES -- Continued
Stock for the Unit or cash at the fair market value. When a Unit holder redeems
a Unit for a share of Common Stock or cash, the minority interest will be
reduced and the Company's share in the Operating Partnership will be increased.
The Company's General and Limited Partnership Units are not redeemable for cash.
At December 31, 1996, the one-year lock-up period had expired with respect to
3,475,629 of the 4,283,237 Units issued.
Basis of Presentation
The Operating Partnership's investments in Highwoods Services, Inc. and
Forsyth Properties Services, Inc. (the "Service Companies") are accounted for
using the equity method of accounting. All significant intercompany balances and
transactions have been eliminated in the financial statements.
The extraordinary loss represents the write-off of loan origination fees
and prepayment penalties paid on the early extinguishment of debt.
Real Estate Assets
Real estate assets are stated at the lower of cost or fair value. All
capitalizable costs related to the improvement or replacement of commercial real
estate properties are capitalized. Depreciation is computed by the straight-line
method over the estimated useful life of 40 years for buildings and improvements
and 5 to 7 years for furniture and equipment. Tenant improvements are amortized
over the life of the respective leases, using the straight-line method.
In March 1995, the FASB issued Statement No. 121, "Accounting for the
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed of", which
requires impairment losses to be recorded on long-lived assets used in
operations when indicators of impairment are present and the undiscounted cash
flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the assets'
carrying amount. Statement 121 also addresses the accounting for long-lived
assets that are expected to be disposed of. The Company adopted the Statement in
the first quarter of 1996 and the adoption did not have any material effect.
Cash Equivalents
The Operating Partnership considers highly liquid investments with a
maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.
Revenue Recognition
Minimum rental income is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term
of the lease. Unpaid rents are included in accounts receivable. Certain lease
agreements contain provisions which provide reimbursement of real estate taxes,
insurance, advertising and certain common area maintenance (CAM) costs. These
additional rents are recorded on the accrual basis. All rent and other
receivables from tenants are due from commercial building tenants located in the
properties.
Deferred Lease Fees and Loan Costs
Lease fees, concessions and loan costs are capitalized at cost and
amortized over the life of the related lease or loan term, respectively.
Redeemable Operating Partnership Units
Holders of redeemable operating partnership units may request redemption of
each of their units by the Operating Partnership for cash equal to the fair
market value of one share of the Company's Common Stock at any time after
expiration of the applicable "lock-up" period. The Company, the
F-9
<PAGE>
HIGHWOODS/FORSYTH LIMITED PARTNERSHIP
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (Continued)
1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES -- Continued
general partner of the Operating Partnership, may at its option choose to
satisfy the redemption requirement by issuing Common Stock on a one-for-one
basis for the number of units submitted for redemption. In accordance with ASR
268 issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission, these units are classified
outside of permanent partners' capital in the accompanying balance sheet. The
recorded value of the units is based on fair value at the balance sheet date as
measured by the closing price of the Company's common stock on that date
multiplied by the total number of units outstanding.
Income Taxes
No provision has been made for income taxes in the accompanying financial
statements because such taxes, if any, are the responsibility of the individual
partners.
The tax basis of the Operating Partnership's assets and liabilities is
$1,186,654,000 and $592,106,000, respectively. The Operating Partnership's
taxable income for the years ended December 31, 1996, 1995, and for the period
from June 14, 1994 to December 31, 1994 was $42,738,000, $22,258,500 and
$5,100,800, respectively. The differences between book income and taxable income
primarily result from timing differences consisting of depreciation expense
($530,000, $2,788,000 and $979,480 in 1996, 1995 and 1994, respectively) and
recording of rental income ($2,596,791, $1,115,390 and $335,780 in 1996, 1995
and 1994, respectively).
Concentration of Credit Risk
Management of the Operating Partnership performs ongoing credit evaluations
of its tenants. At December 31, 1996, the properties were leased to
approximately 1,800 tenants, in 16 geographic locations, which engage in a wide
variety of businesses. There is no dependence upon any single tenant.
Interest Rate Risk Management
The Operating Partnership enters into various interest rate swaps and
collars in managing its interest rate risk. Payments to or from the
counterparties are recorded as adjustments to interest expense. The Operating
Partnership has designated these instruments as hedges against existing
liabilities and accordingly utilizes hedge accounting.
The Operating Partnership is exposed to certain losses in the event of
non-performance by the counterparties under the collar and swap arrangements.
The counterparties are major financial institutions with credit ratings of Aa3
or better, and are expected to perform fully under the agreements. However, if
they were to default on their obligations under the arrangements, the Operating
Partnership could be required to pay the full rate under its Revolving Loan and
the variable rate mortgages, even if such rate were in excess of the rate in the
collar and swap agreements. The Operating Partnership would not realize a
material loss as of December 31, 1996 in the event of non-performance by any one
counterparty. Additionally, the Operating Partnership limits the amount of
credit exposure with any one institution.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and
accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

</TABLE>
Mortgage notes payable were secured by real estate with an aggregate
carrying value of $586,000,000 at December 31, 1996.
The Operating Partnership has entered into interest swap agreements with
financial institutions to effectively fix the interest rate on the variable rate
mortgages and variable rate notes at a rate of 7.2%. At December 31, 1996, the
notional amounts of the interest rate swaps equaled the outstanding balance of
the indebtedness. The swaps expire in June 1999 and July 2000 upon the maturity
of the respective indebtedness and had a cost basis of $475,000 at December 31,
1996.
The 7.9% Mortgage Note is secured by 46 of the Properties (the "Mortgage
Note Properties"), which are held by AP Southeast Portfolio Partners, L.P. (the
"Financing Partnership"). The Operating Partnership has a 99.99% economic
interest in the Financing Partnership, which is managed, indirectly, by the
Operating Partnership. The 7.9% Mortgage Note is a conventional, monthly pay,
first mortgage note in the principal amount of $140 million issued by the
Financing Partnership. The 7.9% Mortgage Note is a limited recourse obligation
of the Financing Partnership as to which, in the event of a default under the
indenture or the mortgage, recourse may be had only against the Mortgage Note
Properties and other assets that have been pledged as security. The 7.9%
Mortgage Note was issued to Kidder Peabody Acceptance Corporation I pursuant to
an indenture, dated March 1, 1994 (the "Mortgage Note Indenture"), among the
Financing Partnership, Bankers Trust Company of California, N.A., and Bankers
Trust Company.
The Mortgage Note Indenture provides for a lockout period that prohibits
optional redemption payments in respect of principal of the 7.9% Mortgage Note
(other than a $7 million premium-free redemption payment) prior to November
1998. Thereafter, the Financing Partnership may make optional redemption
payments in respect of principal of the 7.9% Mortgage Note on any distribution
date, subject to the payment of a yield maintenance charge in connection with

Under the terms of the purchase agreement relating to the Mortgage Note

2. MORTGAGES AND NOTES PAYABLE -- Continued
contingent payment, which will in no event exceed $4.4 million, is due on April
1, 1998 if the actual four-year cumulative cash flow of such properties exceeds
the projected four-year cumulative cash flow. Based on the estimates of future
operations, the Operating Partnership does not believe that any deferred
contingent purchase principal price will be payable.
On December 2, 1996, the Operating Partnership issued $100,000,000 of
unsecured 6 3/4% notes due December 1, 2003 and $110,000,000 of unsecured 7%
notes due December 1, 2006. Interest on the notes is payable semi-annually on
June 1 and December 1 commencing on June 1, 1997. In accordance with the terms
of the Indenture under which the unsecured notes are issued, the Operating
Partnership is required to (a) limit its total indebtedness, (b) limit its level
of secured debt, (c) maintain a minimum debt service coverage ratio and (d)
maintain a minimum level of unencumbered assets. At December 31, 1996, the
Company was in compliance with these covenants.
In September 1996, the Operating Partnership obtained a $280,000,000
unsecured revolving loan which matures on October 31, 1999. Borrowings under the
revolving loan will adjust based upon the Operating Partnership's senior
unsecured debt rating with a range of 30-day LIBOR plus 100 basis points to
LIBOR plus 175 basis points. At December 31, 1996, the rate was set at 30-day
LIBOR plus 135 basis points and the effective interest rate was 6.91%. The terms
of the revolving loan require the Operating Partnership to pay a commitment fee
equal to .15% to .25% of the unused portion of the revolving loan and include
certain restrictive covenants which limit, among other things, dividend
payments, and which require compliance with certain financial ratios and
measurements. At December 31, 1996, the Operating Partnership was in compliance
with these covenants.
To limit increases in interest expense on $80,000,000 of the revolving
loan, the Operating Partnership has purchased an interest rate collar which
limits its exposure to an increase in 30-day LIBOR to 6.25% through November
2001. The initial premium used to acquire the $80,000,000 interest rate cap is
being amortized over the term of the collar.
Payments received from counterparties under the above interest rate
protection agreements were $167,000 in 1996, $385,000 in 1995 and $25,000 in
1994 and were recorded as a reduction of interest expense.
The aggregate maturities of the mortgage and notes payable at December 31,
1996 are as follows (in thousands):

3. RENTAL INCOME
The Operating Partnership's real estate assets are leased to tenants under
operating leases, substantially all of which will expire over the next ten
years. The minimum rental amounts under the leases are generally either subject
to scheduled fixed increases or adjustments based on the Consumer Price Index.
Generally, the leases also require that the tenants reimburse the Operating
Partnership for increases in certain costs above their base year costs.

$6,850,000 from partnerships in which certain officers and directors owned a
majority interest. These transactions were accounted for using the purchase
method of accounting and their operating results are included in the Statements
of Income from their respective acquisition dates.

6. DISCLOSURE ABOUT FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The following disclosures of estimated fair values were determined by
management using available market information and appropriate valuation
methodologies. Considerable judgment is necessary to interpret market data and
develop estimated fair values. Accordingly, the estimates presented herein are
not necessarily indicative of the amounts that the Operating Partnership could
realize upon disposition of the financial instruments. The use of different
market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies may have a material effect on
the estimated fair value. The carrying amounts and estimated fair value of the
Operating Partnership's financial instruments at December 31, 1996, were as
follows (in thousands):
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
Carrying Fair
Amount Value
<S> <C> <C>
Cash and cash equivalents........................... $ 19,157 $ 19,157
Accounts and notes receivable....................... $ 11,228 $ 11,228
Mortgages and notes payable......................... $555,876 $571,000
Interest rate collar and swap agreements............ $ 3,606 $ 1,403
</TABLE>
The fair values for the Operating Partnership's fixed rate mortgages and
notes payable were estimated using discounted cash flow analysis, based on the
Operating Partnership's estimated incremental borrowing rate at December 31,
1996, for similar types of borrowing arrangements. The carrying amounts of the
Operating Partnership's variable rate borrowings approximate fair value.
The fair values of the Operating Partnership's interest rate swap and
interest rate collar agreements represent the estimated amount the Operating
Partnership would receive or pay to terminate or replace the financial
instruments at current market rates.
Disclosures about the fair value of financial instruments are based on
relevant information available to the Operating Partnership at December 31,
1996. Although management is not aware of any factors that would have a material
effect on the fair value amounts reported herein, such amounts have not been
revalued since that date and current estimates of fair value may significantly
differ from the amounts presented herein.

8. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
Acquisition of Suburban Atlanta Properties
Century Center Transaction. On January 9, 1997, the Operating Partnership
acquired the 17-building Century Center Office Park, four affiliated industrial
properties and 20 acres of Development Land located in suburban Atlanta, Georgia
(the "Century Center Transaction"). The properties total 1.6 million rentable
square feet and, as of December 31, 1996, were 99% leased. The cost of the
Century Center Transaction was $55.6 million in Units (valued at $29.25 per
Unit, the market value of a share of Common Stock as of the signing of a letter
of intent for the Century Center Transaction), the assumption of $19.4 million
of secured debt and a cash payment of $53.1 million drawn from the Operating
Partnership's $280 million Revolving Loan. All Units issued in the transaction
are subject to restrictions on transfer and redemption. Such restrictions are
scheduled to expire over a three-year period in equal annual installments
commencing one year from the date of issuance.
Century Center Office Park is located on approximately 77 acres, of which
approximately 61 acres are controlled under long-term fixed rental ground leases
that expire in 2058. The rent under the leases is approximately $180,000 per
year with scheduled 10% increases in 1999 and 2009. The leases do not contain a
right to purchase the subject land.
Anderson Transaction. On February 12, 1997, the Operating Partnership
acquired a portfolio of industrial, office and undeveloped properties in Atlanta
from affiliates of Anderson Properties (the "Anderson Transaction"). The
Anderson Transaction involves 22 industrial properties and six office properties
totaling 1.6 million rentable square feet, three industrial development projects
totaling 402,000 square feet and 137 acres of land for development.
The cost of the Anderson Transaction consisted of the issuance of $22.9
million of Units (valued at $29.25 per Unit, the market value of a share of
Common Stock as of the signing of a letter of intent relating to the
transaction), the assumption of $7.8 million of mortgage debt and a cash payment
of
F-15

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (Continued)
8. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS -- Continued
$37.7 million. The cash amount does not includes $11.1 million expected to be
paid to complete the three development projects. Approximately $5.5 million of
the Units are newly created Class B Units, which differ from other Units in that
they are not eligible for cash distributions from the Operating Partnership. The
Class B Units will convert to regular Units in 25% annual installments
commencing one year from the date of issuance. Prior to such conversion, such
Units will not be redeemable for cash or Common Stock. All other Units to be
issued in the transaction are also subject to restrictions on transfer or
redemption. Such lock-up restrictions will expire over a three-year period in
equal annual installments commencing one year from the date of issuance.
Preferred Stock Offering
On February 7, 1997, the Company issued 125,000 shares of 8 5/8% perpetual
preferred stock for $1,000 per share. The net proceeds of $121.7 million were
contributed to the Operating Partnership in exchange for preferred units, which
have the same economic terms as the preferred stock. Such proceeds were used to
pay down existing indebtedness and fund the Anderson Transaction. The preferred
stock is not redeemable prior to February 2027. The preferred stock is not
subject to any sinking fund or mandatory redemption and is not convertible into
any other securities of the Company.

HIGHWOODS GROUP
NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
PERIOD FROM JANUARY 1, 1994 THROUGH JUNE 13, 1994
1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Description of Business
The Highwoods Group is engaged in the ownership, management, operation,
leasing and development of commercial real estate properties. The Highwoods
Group owns and operates 14 buildings located in the Research Triangle Park
region of North Carolina.
Principles of Combination
The Highwoods Group is not a legal entity but rather a combination of
commercial real estate properties that are organized as general partnerships and
are under common control, and an affiliated real estate management company, the
Highwoods Properties Company ("HPC"). HPC provides property management services
to the properties. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have
been eliminated in the combination.
On June 14, 1994, the Highwoods Group transferred all of its assets and
liabilities to Highwoods Realty Limited Partnership in connection with Highwoods
Properties, Inc.'s initial public offering of common stock.
Cash Equivalents
The Highwoods Group considers highly liquid investments with a maturity of
three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.
Revenue Recognition
Minimum rental income is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term
of the lease, and due and unpaid rents are included in rents and other
receivables from tenants in the accompanying balance sheet. Certain lease
agreements contain provisions which provide reimbursement of real estate taxes,
insurance and certain common area maintenance (CAM) costs. These additional
rents are recorded on the accrual basis. All rent and other receivables from
tenants are due from commercial building tenants located in the properties.
Lease fee income is recognized 50% when the lease is signed and 50% when the
tenant takes occupancy.
Other Income
Other income consists primarily of management fees generated by HPC from
providing property management services to third parties and interest income.
Income Taxes
No provision has been made for income taxes because the commercial real
estate properties are owned by partnerships whose partners are required to
include their respective share of profits or losses in their individual tax
returns.
HPC elected to be taxed for federal and state income tax purposes as an
S-Corporation under provisions of the Internal Revenue Code. Consequently
income, losses and credits are passed through directly to the stockholders,
rather than being taxed at the corporate level.
2. LEASES
The Highwoods Group leases automobiles, and office space under various
operating leases. Total rent expense for these leases was $70,000 for the period
from January 1, 1994 to June 13, 1994. As of June 13, 1994, the Company did not
have contractual leases in place with remaining terms of one year or more.
