     Item 3.  Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

   

     CPI acquired the securities of the Issuer pursuant to (i) the  Contribution
Agreement (the "Contribution  Agreement") dated as of May 14, 1998, by and among
the entities listed as sellers therein and Corporate Office Properties, L.P. and
the Issuer,  as amended on July 16, 1998 and  September  28, 1998;  and (ii) the

Agreement") dated May 14, 1998, by and among  Constellation  Real Estate,  Inc.,
KMS Oldco,  Inc., CREG,  Corporate Office  Properties,  L.P. and the Issuer.  On
September 28, 1998, BGE,  through its  subsidiaries,  contributed real property,
interests in entities that own real property and a mortgage, and other assets to
the Issuer in exchange for cash,  assumption of $59.6  million of  indebtedness,

                                  Page 8 of 14


6,182,634  Common  Shares  and  865,566  Preferred  Shares  of the  Issuer.  The
Preferred  Shares do not entitle the holder  thereof to any vote,  except (i) as
required by applicable law, (ii) in connection with an amendment to the Issuer's
Declaration  of Trust  that  would  amend,  alter or repeal  any of the  rights,
preferences or powers of the Preferred Shares or (iii) the right to designate up
to two members of the Board of Trustees as described below. The Preferred Shares
are  convertible,  beginning  two years  after the  closing of the  transactions
contemplated by the Contribution  Agreement and the Asset Contribution Agreement
(the "Transaction"), into Common Shares on the basis of 1.8748 Common Shares for
each Preferred Share,  subject to adjustment upon certain events,  in accordance
with the  terms and  provisions  of the  Articles  Supplementary  of the  Issuer
relating to such Preferred Shares filed with the State Department of Assessments
and Taxation of Maryland.

     On October 22, 1998,  pursuant to the Contribution  Agreement and the Asset
Contribution Agreement, BGE, through its subsidiaries,  contributed interests in
an entity that owns real property and other assets to the Issuer in exchange for
approximately $9.5 million which was used to pay  off outstanding  debt, 517,923
Common Shares and 72,509 Preferred Shares.

    

     Item 4.  Purpose of Transaction.

   

     CPI,  acquired  the  securities  of  the  Issuer  as an  investment  and in
consideration  of the assets  transferred  to the Issuer as  described in Item 3
above.  After the  September  28, 1998  closing of the  Transaction,  the Issuer
expanded  its Board of  Trustees  from  seven to nine,  and the  Issuer  elected
thereto Edward A. Crooke, Chairman of Constellation  Enterprises,  Inc. and Vice
Chairman of BGE, and Steven D. Kesler,  President of Constellation  Investments,
Inc.,  each of whom were  designated by CPI in accordance with its rights as the
holder of Preferred Shares. Mr. Crooke is a Class III Trustee whose term expires
in 2001, and Mr. Kesler is a Class II Trustee whose term expires in 2000. If any
member of the Board of Trustees  designated by CPI withdraws for any reason, CPI
will  have the  right  to  designate  such  withdrawing  Trustee's  replacement.
Thereafter,  CPI will be entitled to  designate  two Trustees as long as it owns
any Preferred Shares and at least 30% of the Issuer's outstanding Common Shares,
and will be entitled to designate  one Trustee as long as it owns any  Preferred
Shares and less than 30% but more than 15% of the outstanding Common Shares. The
foregoing  calculations include as outstanding the Common Shares owned by CPI as
well as the Common Shares issuable upon conversion of Preferred  Shares owned by
CPI. Moreover,  if the Issuer fails at any time or from time to time to pay when
due two consecutive  quarterly  dividend payments on the Preferred Shares,  then
the holders of the  Preferred  Shares  will be entitled to elect two  additional
members to the Board of  Trustees  of the Issuer to serve  until all accrued and
unpaid dividends on the Preferred Shares have been paid in full.

     The Issuer has granted registration rights with regard to the Common Shares
to CPI in exchange for the consideration  described in Item 3 above, pursuant to
the  Registration  Rights  Agreement dated September 28, 1998, by the Issuer and
certain  persons named  therein.  Within six months after the September 28, 1998
closing of the Transaction, the Issuer is obligated to file a shelf registration
statement with regard to the Common Shares issued in the Transaction, as well as
the  Common  Shares  issuable  upon  conversion  of the  Preferred  Shares  (the
"Registrable Securities"). The Issuer is also required, at the demand of holders
of 10% or more of the Registrable Securities, to register

                                  Page 9 of 14


such holders' Registrable  Securities,  subject to the right to defer the filing
of the necessary registration statement for a period not to exceed 90 days under
certain limited  circumstances.  In addition, the Issuer has granted the holders
of the Registrable Securities "piggy-back" rights.

    

     After the closing of the  Transaction,  Jay H. Shidler  remains as Chairman
and Clay W.  Hamlin,  III  remains as Chief  Executive  Officer  of the  Issuer.
Randall M.  Griffin,  formerly  President of CREG,  became  President  and Chief
Operating  Officer of the Issuer. In addition,  Roger A. Waesche,  Jr., formerly
Senior Vice  President of Finance of  Constellation  Real Estate,  Inc.,  became
Senior Vice  President-Finance  of the Issuer and John H. Gurley,  formerly Vice
President and General  Counsel of  Constellation  Real Estate,  Inc. became Vice
President and General Counsel of the Issuer.

   

     Following  the  October  22, 1998  closing of the  Transaction,  the Issuer
expects to close on an additional property held by CPI or its affiliates that is
currently under  construction.  The closing of the property is expected to occur
on the earlier of March 31, 1999 or the date on which certain  occupancy  levels
are achieved on the property.  The total  consideration to be paid by the Issuer
for the  properties  will  include,  inter alia,  approximately  $4.7 million in
Common Shares and/or Preferred Shares.

    

     Except as set forth above, the Reporting Persons do not have as of the date
hereof  any plans or  proposals  that  relate  to or would  result  in:  (i) the
acquisition  of  additional  securities  of the  Issuer  or the  disposition  of
securities of the Issuer; (ii) an extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a
merger,  reorganization  or  liquidation  involving  the  Issuer  or  any of its
subsidiaries;  (iii) a sale or  transfer  of a material  amount of assets of the
Issuer  or any of its  subsidiaries;  (iv) any  change in the  present  Board of
Trustees or management of the Issuer, including any plans or proposals to change
the number or term of trustees or to fill any  vacancies  of the Board;  (v) any
material change in the present  capitalization or dividend policy of the Issuer;
(vi) any other material change in the Issuer's business or corporate  structure;
(vii) any changes in the Issuer's  declaration of trust,  by-laws or instruments
corresponding  thereto or other  actions  which may impede  the  acquisition  of
control of the Issuer by any person; (viii) causing a class of securities of the
Issuer to be  delisted  from a national  securities  exchange  or to cease to be
authorized  to be quoted in an  inter-dealer  quotation  system of a  registered
national  securities  association;  (ix)  causing a class of  securities  of the
Issuer to become eligible for  termination of  registration  pursuant to Section
12(g)(4) of the  Securities  Exchange Act of 1934; or (x) any action  similar to
any  of  those  enumerated  above.  Notwithstanding  anything  to  the  contrary
contained  herein,  the  Reporting  Persons  reserve  the right to change  their
present intentions with respect to the matters described in this paragraph.

     Item 5.  Interest in Securities of Issuer.

   

     Based upon the  Issuer's  Quarterly  Report on Form 10-Q for the  quarterly
period ended June 30, 1998 filed with the  Securities  and  Exchange  Commission
under the  Securities  Exchange Act of 1934, as of October 22, 1998,  16,471,640
Common Shares are issued and outstanding and 938,075 Preferred Shares are issued
and  outstanding.  The Reporting  Persons have sole power to vote and dispose of
6,700,557  Common Shares,  which  constitutes  40.7% of the  outstanding  Common
Shares, and 938,075 Preferred Shares,  which constitutes 100% of the outstanding
Preferred Shares.

     Item 6.  Contracts,  Arrangements,  Understandings  or  Relationships  with
     Respect to  Securities  of the Issuer.

   

     Other than as listed below, there are presently no contracts, arrangements,
understandings  or  relationships  (legal or otherwise) among the persons filing
this  Amendment No. 1 to the Schedule 13D, or between such persons and any other
person, with respect to any securities of the Issuer, including, but not limited
to, transfer or voting of any securities, finder's fees, joint ventures, loan or
option arrangements,  puts or calls, guarantees or profits,  division of profits
or loss, or the giving or withholding of proxies.

     The Issuer has granted registration rights with regard to the Common Shares
to CPI in exchange for the consideration  described in Item 3 above, pursuant to
the  Registration  Rights  Agreement dated September 28, 1998, by the Issuer and
certain  persons  named  therein.  Within  six months  after the  closing of the
Transaction, the Issuer is obligated to file a shelf registration statement with
regard to the Registrable Securities. The Issuer is also required, at the demand
of  holders  of 10% or more of the  Registrable  Securities,  to  register  such
holders' Registrable Securities, subject to the right to defer the filing of the
necessary  registration  statement  for a period  not to  exceed  90 days  under
certain limited  circumstances.  In addition, the Issuer has granted the holders
of the Registrable Securities "piggy-back" rights.
