NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT PER SHARE DATA)
(UNAUDITED)
NOTE 11. ORGANIZATION
Corporate Office Properties Trust ("COPT") and subsidiaries (collectively,
the "Company") is a fully integratedfully-integrated and self-managed real estate investment
trust ("REIT"). We focus principally on the ownership, management, leasing,
acquisition and development of suburban office properties located in select
submarkets in the Mid-Atlantic region of the United States. COPT is qualified as
a REIT as defined in the Internal Revenue Code and is the successor to a
corporation organized in 1988. As of September 30, 2001,March 31, 2002, our portfolio included 9799
office properties, including one owned through a joint venture.properties.
We conduct almost all of our operations principally through our operating
partnership, Corporate Office Properties, L.P. (the "Operating Partnership"),
for which we are the managing general partner. The Operating Partnership owns
real estate both directly and through subsidiary partnerships and limited
liability companies ("LLCs"). The Operating Partnership also owns Corporate
Office Management, Inc. ("COMI") (together with its subsidiaries defined as the
"Service Companies"). Prior to January 1, 2001, the Operating Partnership owned
the principal economic interest in COMI but owned only 1% of COMI's voting stock
(see Note 7). A summary of our Operating Partnership's formsclasses of

2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
These notes to ourThe accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements highlight significant
changes tohave
been prepared in accordance with the notes torules and regulations for reporting on Form
10-Q. Accordingly, certain information and disclosures required by accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States for complete consolidated
financial statements are not included in our 2000 Annual
Report on Form 10-K. As a result, these notes to ourherein. These interim financial statements
should be read together with the financial statements and notes thereto included
in our 20002001 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The interim financial statements on the
previous pages reflect all adjustments which we believe are necessary for the
fair presentation of our financial position and results of operations for the
interim periods presented. These adjustments are of a normal recurring nature.
The results of operations for such interim periods are not necessarily
indicative of the results for a full year.
We use three different accounting methods to report our investments in
entities: the consolidation method, the equity method and the cost method.
CONSOLIDATION METHOD
We use the consolidation method when we own the majoritymost of the outstanding voting
interests in an entity and can control its operations. This means the accounts
of the entity are combined with our accounts. We eliminate balances and
transactions between companies when we consolidate these accounts. Our
consolidated financial statements include the accounts of:
6
o- - COPT;
o- - the Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries;subsidiary partnerships and oLLCs; and
- - Corporate Office Properties Holdings, Inc. (we(of which we own 100%).
The Service Companies became a consolidated subsidiary of the Operating
Partnership effective January 1, 2001 (see Note 7). Prior to that date, we
accounted for our investment in the Service Companies using the equity method of
accounting (discussed below).6
EQUITY METHOD
We use the equity method of accounting when we own an interest in an entity
and can exert significant influence over the entity's operations but cannot
control the entity's operations. Under the equity method, we report:
o- our ownership interest in the entity's capital as an investment on our
Consolidated Balance Sheets and
o- our percentage share of the earnings or losses from the entity in our
Consolidated Statements of Operations.
COST METHOD
We use the cost method of accounting when we own an interest in an entity
and cannot exert significant influence over the entity's operations. Under the
cost method, we report:
o- the cost of our investment in the entity as an investment on our
Consolidated Balance Sheets and
o- distributions to us of the entity's earnings in our Consolidated
Statements of Operations.
NOTE 3RECLASSIFICATION
We reclassified certain amounts from the prior period to conform to the
current period presentation of our consolidated financial statements. These
reclassifications did not affect consolidated net income or shareholders'
equity.
3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
USE OF ESTIMATES IN THE PREPARATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
We make estimates and assumptions when preparing financial statements under
generally accepted accounting principles. These estimates and assumptions affect
various matters, including:
o the- our reported amounts of assets and liabilities in our Consolidated
Balance Sheets at the dates of the financial statements;
o the- our disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of
the financial statements; and
o the- our reported amounts of revenues and expenses in our Consolidated
Statements of Operations during the reporting periods.
These estimates involve judgementsjudgments with respect to, among other things,
future economic factors that are difficult to predict and are often beyond
management's control. As a result, actual amounts could differ from these
estimates.
ACCOUNTING FOR CERTAIN REAL ESTATE JOINT VENTURES
We contributed parcels of land into two real estate joint ventures. Each of
these joint ventures is engaged in the construction of an office building. In
exchange for the contributions of land, we received joint venture interests and
$9.6 million in cash. In each case, we have an option to acquire the joint
venture partners' interests for a pre-determined purchase price over a limited
period of time. We account for our interests in these joint ventures as follows:
o the costs associated with these land parcels at the time of their
respective contributions are reported as projects under construction or
development on our Consolidated Balance Sheets;
o the cash received from these joint ventures in connection with the land
contributions is reported as other liabilities on our Consolidated Balance
Sheets. These liabilities are being accreted towards the pre-determined
purchase price over the period in which we have an option to acquire the
joint venture partners' interests. We also report interest expense in
connection with the accretion of these liabilities; and

o as construction of the buildings on these land parcels is completed and
operations commence, we report 100% of the revenues and expenses associated
with these properties on our Consolidated Statements of Operations.
We do not report ongoing construction costs and debt activity for these
projects relating to periods after the respective land contributions.
DERIVATIVES
We are exposed to the effect of interest rate changes in the normal course
of business. We use interest rate swap and interest rate cap agreements to
reduce the impact of such interest rate changes. Interest rate differentials
that arise under these contracts are recognized in interest expense over the
life of the respective contracts. We do not use such derivatives for trading or
speculative purposes. We also only enter into contracts with major financial
institutions based upon their credit ratings and other risk factors.
In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 133 ("SFAS 133"), "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities." We adopted this standard beginning January
1, 2001. SFAS 133 establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative
financial instruments and for hedging activities. It requires that an entity
recognize all derivatives as assets or liabilities in the balance sheet at fair
value with the offset to:
o the accumulated other comprehensive loss component of shareholders' equity
("AOCL"), net of the share attributable to minority interests, for any
derivatives designated as cash flow hedges to the extent such derivatives
are deemed effective;
o other revenue or expense on our Statement of Operations for any derivatives
designated as cash flow hedges to the extent such derivatives are deemed
ineffective; or
o other revenue or expense on our Statement of Operations for any derivatives
designated as fair value hedges.
We use standard market conventions and techniques such as discounted cash
flow analysis, option pricing models, replacement cost and termination cost in
computing the fair value of derivatives at each balance sheet date.
The following table sets forth derivative contracts we had in place as of
September 30, 2001 and their respective fair values ("FV"):

=======
We have designated each of these derivatives as cash flow hedges. At
September 30, 2001, the interest rate swap is effective while the interest rate
caps are not effective. At adoption on January 1, 2001, we reduced AOCL and
minority interests in total by $246 as a cumulative effect adjustment to
recognize the net fair value of our interest rate swap contract on that date. We
also recognized an unrealized loss of $263 ($174 net of minority interests'
portion) on the book value associated with these derivatives at January 1, 2001;
this loss is reported as a cumulative effect of an accounting change on our
Consolidated Statements of Operations.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2001, we reduced AOCL and
minority interests in total by an additional $3,645 to recognize the decrease in
the fair value of the interest rate swap during that period. We also recognized
an unrealized loss of $9 to recognize the change in the fair value of the
interest rate caps; this loss is included in tenant recoveries and other revenue
on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
8
Over time, the unrealized loss held in AOCL and minority interests
associated with our interest rate swap will be reclassified to earnings. Within
the next twelve months, we expect to reclassify to earnings an estimated $3.1
million of the balances held in AOCL and minority interests.
MINORITY INTERESTS
As discussed previously, we consolidate the accounts of our Operating
Partnership and its subsidiaries into our financial statements. However, we do
not own 100% of the Operating Partnership. Our Operating Partnership also does
not own 11% of one of its subsidiary partnerships. In addition, COMI does not
own 20% of one of its subsidiaries. The amounts reported for minority interests
on our Consolidated Balance Sheets represent the portion of these consolidated
entities' equity that we do not own. The amounts reported for minority interests
on our Consolidated Statements of Operations represent the portion of these
consolidated entities' net income not allocated to us.
EARNINGS PER SHARE
("EPS")
We present both basic and diluted EPS.earnings per Common Share ("EPS"). We
compute basic EPS by dividing income available to common shareholders by the
weighted-average number of Common Shares of beneficial interest ("Common
Shares") outstanding during the period. Our computation of diluted EPS is
similar except that:
o7
- - the denominator is increased to include the weighted averageweighted-average number of
potential additional Common Shares that would have been outstanding if
securities that are convertible into our Common Shares were convertedconverted; and
o- - the numerator is adjusted to add back any convertible preferred dividends
and any other changes in income or loss that would result from the assumed
conversion into Common Shares.
9
Our computation of diluted EPS does not assume conversion of securities into our
Common Shares if conversion of those securities would increase our diluted EPS
in a given period. A summary of the numerator and denominator for purposes of
basic and diluted EPS calculations is as follows (dollars and shares in(in thousands, except per share

RECLASSIFICATION

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative
InstrumentsOn July 1, 2001 and Hedging Activities." ("SFAS 133"). We adopted this standard
beginning January 1, 2001. SFAS 133 establishes accounting and reporting
standards for derivative financial instruments and for hedging activities. See
section above entitled "Derivatives" for further discussion of this
pronouncement.
In June 2001, the FASB issued Statements2002, we adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 141 "Business Combinations" ("SFAS 141") and No. 142
"Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets" ("SFAS 142") which are effective July 1, 2001 and January 1,
2002,, respectively. SFAS 141
requires that the purchase method of accounting be used for all business
combinations initiated after June 30, 2001. UnderThe provisions of SFAS 142 require
that (1) amortization of goodwill, including goodwill recorded in past business
combinations, will discontinuebe discontinued upon adoption of this standard. In addition,standard and (2) goodwill recorded as a result of business combinations completed during the
six-month period ending December 31, 2001 will not be amortized. All goodwill
and intangible assets will be
tested annually for impairment and in accordance withinterim periods if certain events occur
indicating that the provisionscarrying value of the Statement. We are currently reviewinggoodwill may be impaired. After completing
an evaluation of our unamortized goodwill under the provisions of SFAS 142, we
concluded that our carrying value of goodwill was not impaired as of January 1,
2002 and assessing the impact of adoption.March 31, 2002. The following table summarizes our goodwill
amortization and operating results as if such goodwill amortization did not
occur:

Diluted earnings per Common Share, as reported $ 0.13 $ 0.14
Diluted earnings per Common Share, exclusive of goodwill amortization $ 0.13 $ 0.14
In October 2001, the FASB issuedJanuary 1, 2002, we adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets" ("SFAS
144"). SFAS 144 provides new guidance on recognition of impairment losses on
long-lived assets to be held and used and broadens the definition of what
constitutes a discontinued operation and how the results of discontinued
operations are to be measured. The primary impact of our adoption of this
standard is that revenues and expenses associated with real estate investments
that we sold in 2002 or held for sale at March 31, 2002 are classified as
discontinued operations on our Consolidated Statements of Operations for the
periods reported.
In April 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 145, "Rescission of FASB Statements No. 4, 44
and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections" ("SFAS
No. 144145"). SFAS 145 generally eliminates the requirement that gains and losses
from the extinguishment of debt be aggregated and, if material, classified as an
extraordinary item, net of the related income tax effect. SFAS 145 also
eliminates previously existing inconsistencies between the accounting for
sale-leaseback transactions and certain lease modifications that have economic
effects similar to that of sale-leaseback transactions. The amendment requires
that lease modifications result in recognition of a gain or loss in the
financial statements and, where applicable, be subject to existing accounting
standards governing sales of real estate and sale-leaseback transactions. SFAS
145 is generally effective January 1,
2002.for transactions occurring after May 15, 2002;
however, the standard generally requires that gains or losses from
extinguishment of debt reported as an extraordinary item in prior periods
presented be reclassified. We are currently reviewing the provisions of this
standard and assessing the impact of adoption.

NOTE 510
ACCOUNTING FOR CERTAIN REAL ESTATE JOINT VENTURES
Prior to 2002, we contributed parcels of land into two real estate joint
ventures. In exchange for the contributions of land, we received joint venture
interests and $9.6 million in cash. Each of these joint ventures constructed
office buildings on the land parcels. Each of the joint ventures' operating
agreements provide us with the option to acquire the joint venture partners'
interests for a pre-determined purchase price over a limited period of time. We
account for our interests in these joint ventures as follows:
- - the costs associated with these land parcels at the time of their
respective contributions are reported as commercial real estate properties
on our Consolidated Balance Sheets;
- - the cash received from these joint ventures in connection with the land
contributions is reported as other liabilities on our Consolidated Balance
Sheets. These liabilities are accreted towards the pre-determined purchase
price over the life of our option to acquire the joint venture partners'
interests. We also report interest expense in connection with the accretion
of these liabilities; and
- - as construction of the buildings on these land parcels is completed and
operations commence, we report 100% of the revenues and expenses associated
with these properties on our Consolidated Statements of Operations.
- - construction costs and debt activity for these projects relating to periods
after the respective land contributions are not reported by us.
In February 2002, we acquired the joint venture partner's interest in one
of these joint ventures for the pre-determined purchase price of $5,448. Upon
completion of this acquisition, we began consolidating the accounts of the
entity with our accounts.

From September 1998 through December 2000, the Operating Partnership owned
95% of the capital stock in COMI, including 1% of the voting common stock. COMI
provided us with asset management, managerial, financial and legal support
during that time period. On January 1, 2001, we acquired all of the stock in
COMI which we did not previously own for $26 and all of COMI's employees became
employees of the Operating Partnership. We accounted for the acquisition of COMI
using the purchase method of accounting. We also elected to have COMI treated as
a taxable REIT subsidiary ("TRS") under the REIT Modernization Act effective
January 1, 2001.
We accounted for our investment in COMI and its subsidiaries using the
equity method of accounting through December 31, 2000. Since we own all of the
voting interests in COMI and control its operations effective January 1, 2001,
we began consolidating the accounts of COMI and its subsidiaries with our
accounts on that date.
On February 28, 2001, we acquired a 7.7% interest in Paragon Smart
Technologies, LLC ("Paragon"), an entity that provides a wide range of computer
consulting services to businesses. Paragon also provides broadband Internet
access and companion services to commercial real estate owners in the
Baltimore/Washington Corridor. We account for our investment in Paragon using

NOTE 1214. INCOME TAXES
Corporate Office Properties Trust elected to be treated as a REIT under
Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code. As a REIT, we generally
will not be subject to Federal income tax if we distribute at least 90% of our
REIT taxable income to our shareholders and satisfy certain other requirements
(see discussion below). If we fail to qualify as a REIT in any tax year, we will
be subject to Federal income tax on our taxable income at regular corporate
rates.
In December 1999, legislation containing the REIT Modernization Act was
signed into law. This law was effective January 1, 2001 and included the
following changes:
o REITs are now allowed to own up to 100% investments in the stock of a
TRS, subject to certain restrictions relating to the size of such
investments. TRSs can provide services to REIT tenants and others without
adversely impacting the income requirements to which REITs are subject;
o REITs are no longer able to enter into new arrangements to own more than
10% of the vote or value of the securities in a non-REIT C corporation
unless such C corporation elects to be treated as a TRS; and
o the percentage of REIT taxable income that REITs are required to distribute
to shareholders was reduced from 95% to 90%.
On January 1, 2001, we acquired all of the stock in COMI which we did not
previously own. We also elected to have COMI treated as a TRS effective January
1, 2001. COMI is subject to Federal and state income taxes. COMI's provision for income tax benefit for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 consistedconsists of the following:

COMI's combined Federal and state effective tax rate for the ninethree months
ended September 30,March 31, 2002 and 2001 was approximately 40%.
NOTE 13 INFORMATION BY BUSINESS SEGMENT
We have six business segments: Baltimore/Washington Corridor office,
Greater Philadelphia office, Northern/Central New Jersey office, Greater
Harrisburg office, retail (the last of which was sold in 2000) and service
operations. Our office properties represent our core-business. We manage our
retail properties and service operations each as single segments since they are
considered outside of our core-business.

15. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
The table below reports segment financial information. Our retail and
service operations segments are not reported separately since they do not meetsets forth the reporting thresholds. We measure the performancecomponents of our office property
segments based on total revenues less property operating expenses. Accordingly,
we do not report other expenses by segment in the table below.income from discontinued

from our ownership and administration of properties. In management's opinion,Management does not
anticipate that any liabilities that may result are not expected towill have a materially adverse
effect on our financial position, operations or liquidity. We are subject to
various Federal, state and local environmental regulations related to our
property ownership and operation. We have performed environmentenvironmental assessments of
all of our properties, the results of which have not revealed any environmental
liability that we believe would have a materially adverse effect on our
financial position, operations or liquidity.
NOTE 15In the event that the costs to complete construction of a building owned by
one of our joint ventures exceed amounts funded by an existing credit facility
and member investments previously made, we will be responsible for making
additional investments in this joint venture of up to $4,600.
We may need to make our share of additional investments in our real estate
joint ventures (generally based on our percentage ownership) in the event that
additional funds are needed. In the event that the other members of these joint
ventures do not pay their share of investments when additional funds are needed,
we may then need to make even larger investments in these joint ventures.
As of March 31, 2002, we served as guarantor for the repayment of mortgage
loans totaling $21,031 for certain of our unconsolidated real estate joint
ventures.
18
In four of our joint ventures, we would be obligated to acquire the
membership interests of those joint ventures not owned by us (20% in the case of
three and 50% in the case of one) in the event that all of the following were to
occur:
(1) an 18-month period passes from the date that 85% of the square feet in
the joint ventures' respective buildings become occupied (the
"18-month period");
(2) at the end of the 18-month period, the joint ventures' respective
buildings are 90% leased and occupied by tenants who are not in
default under their leases; and
(3) six months passes from the end of the 18-month period and either the
buildings are not sold or we have not acquired the other members'
interests.
The amount we would need to pay for those membership interests is computed based
on the amount that the owners of those interests would receive under the joint
venture agreements in the event that the buildings were sold for a capitalized
fair value (as defined in the agreements) on a defined date. At March 31, 2002,
none of the buildings in these joint ventures have occupancy equal to or
exceeding 85%.
As of March 31, 2002, we are under contract to sell our property located at
8815 Centre Park Drive in Columbia, Maryland for $7,300. Our contract to sell
the property expired subsequent to March 31, 2002.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
COMPARISON OF THE THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30,MARCH 31, 2002 AND 2001 AND 2000
Our revenues from real estate operations increased $4.7$4.8 million or 17%16%,
of
which $5.0 million was generated bysubstantially all attributable to rental revenue, offset by a decrease in
tenant recoveries and other revenue of $305,000.revenue. Included in this
change are the following:
o $5.3- $6.4 million increase attributable to 1314 properties acquired and five
newly-constructed properties placed in service since June 30, 2000;
o $337,000 increaseduring 2001 and 2002;
- $784,000 decrease attributable to lower fees earned for other real
estate services;
o $15,000 decrease attributable to 79 office properties owned throughout both
reporting periods that includes the following:
o $818,000 decrease in tenant recoveries and other revenue resulting
mostly from a decrease in anticipated operating cost levels in 2001
compared to 2000 and a change in our tenant composition; and
o $803,000 increase in rental revenue due primarily to additional lease
cancellation revenue, increased occupancy at certain of our properties
and increases in rental rates on renewed and re-tenanted space; and
o $771,000- $408,000 decrease attributable to properties sold during 20002001; and
2001.- $284,000 decrease attributable to 79 properties owned and operational
throughout both reporting periods due primarily to a decrease in
tenant recoveries.
Our expenses from real estate operations increased $3.1$4.1 million or 15%19% due
to the effects of the increases in property operating expenses, interest expense
and amortization of deferred financing costs and depreciation and other
amortization described below.
Our property operating expenses increased $1.6$1.7 million or 20%21%. Included in
this change are the following:
o $1.1- $2.2 million increase attributable to 1314 properties acquired and five
newly-constructed properties placed in service since June 30, 2000;
o $730,000 increaseduring 2001 and 2002;
- $337,000 decrease attributable to 79 office properties owned and operational
throughout both reporting periods that includes the following:
o $415,000 due to increased repair and maintenance costs related primarily to building exteriordecreased snow
removal expense; and
ground improvement projects
occurring in the three months ended September 30, 2001;
o $134,000 due to increases in real estate taxes resulting from
increased assessments of property value; and
o $96,000 due to increased expense associated with doubtful or
uncollectible receivables; and
o $195,000- $117,000 decrease attributable to properties sold during 2000 and 2001.
We expect to incur increased losses from uncollectible receivables relative to
what we have incurred in recent years due to poorer general economic conditions
in the United States and the regions we operate.
Our interest expense and amortization of deferred financing costs increased
$540,000$455,000 or 7%6% due primarily to a 14%22% increase in our average outstanding debt
balance resulting predominantly from our 20002001 and 20012002 acquisitions and construction activity,
offset somewhat by a decrease in our weighted averageweighted-average interest rates.rates from 7.50% to 6.52%.
Our depreciation and other amortization expense increased $957,000$1.9 million or 22%36%,
$617,000$1.1 million of which is attributable to 1314 properties acquired and five
newly-constructed properties placed in service during 20002001 and 2001.2002.
Our losses from service operations increased $267,000 and our general and administrative expenses increased $28,000$724,000 or 2%.50% due
primarily to (i) additional employee bonus expense, including additional
discretionary bonuses awarded to officers in the current period that were
associated with performance in the prior year, (ii) increased expense associated
with vesting of officer Common Share awards due to shares vesting at higher
Common Share prices and (iii) increased expense associated with Common Share
options that were re-priced in prior years and therefore subject to variable
option accounting due to Common Share price appreciation.
As a result of the above factors, income before minority interests, income
taxes, discontinued operations, extraordinary itemsitem and cumulative effect of
accounting change increased by $1.4 million$230,000 or 22%4%. The amounts reported for minority
interests on our Consolidated Statements of Operations represent primarily the
portion of the Operating Partnership's net income not allocated to us. Our
income allocation to minority interests before giving effect to income tax
benefit, discontinued operations, extraordinary item and cumulative effect of
accounting change decreased $31,000$507,000 or 1%.

Our net income available to Common Shareholders increased $488,000decreased $83,000 or 17%3% due
primarily to the factors discussed above, coupledcombined with a $70,000 decrease in
extraordinary losses on early retirementthe net effect of debt, offset by a $1.0the
following:
- $1.7 million increase in Preferred Share dividends resulting from our
Series D, Series Eissuance of three new series of preferred shares in 2001;
- $670,000 increase in income associated with discontinued operations
due mostly to the gains recognized on our sale of two properties in
the current period; and
Series F Preferred Share issuances. Our diluted earnings per share on net income
of $0.16 increased by $0.02 or 14%.
COMPARISON OF THE NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2001 AND 2000

newly-constructed properties placed in service during 2000 and 2001;

services;
o $850,000 decrease attributable to 75 office properties owned throughout

o $265,000 due to increased expense associated with doubtful or
uncollectible receivables; and
o $371,000 decrease attributable to properties sold during 2000 and 2001.

debt balance resulting from our 2000 and 2001 acquisitions and construction
activity, offset somewhat by a decrease in our weighted average interest rates.
Our depreciation and other amortization expense increased $2.6 million or 21%,
$1.7 million of which is attributable to 14 properties acquired and eight
newly-constructed properties placed in service during 2000 and 2001.

administrative expenses increased $295,000 or 8%. We also had a $1.5 million
increase in our gain from sales of properties.

taxes, extraordinary items and cumulative effect of accounting change increased
by $3.3 million or 19%. Our income allocation to minority
23
interests before giving effect to income tax benefit, extraordinary item
and cumulative effect of accounting change increased $297,000 or 5% due
primarily to an increase in our Operating Partnership's net income. Our income
tax benefit of $133,000 in 2001 was due to our losses from the service
operations that reside in our taxable REIT subsidiary.

losses on early retirement of debt and a $174,000 loss due to the cumulative effect of an
accounting change resulting from our adoption of Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 133, (discussed"Accounting for Derivative Instruments
and Hedging Activities" in Note 3 to our Consolidated
Financial Statements). Our diluted earnings per share on net income of $0.47
increased by $0.05 or 12%.the prior period.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Cash provided from operations representsis our primary source of liquidity to fund
dividends and distributions, pay debt service and fund working capital
requirements. We expect to continue to use cash provided by operations to meet
our short-term capital needs, including all property expenses, general and
administrative expenses, debt service, dividend and distribution requirements
and recurring capital improvements and leasing commissions. We do not anticipate
borrowing to meet these requirements. Factors that could negatively affect our
ability to generate cash from operations in the future are discussed in our 2001
Annual Report on Form 10-K.
We historically have financed our long-term capital needs, including
property acquisitions usingand construction activity, through a combination of the
following:
- cash from operations;
- borrowings secured by our properties, proceeds from sales of properties and
the equity issuances of Common and Preferred Units in our Operating Partnership
and Common and Preferred Shares. We use our secured revolving credit facility with Deutsche Banc Alex. BrownBankers
Trust Company (the "Revolving Credit Facility");
- borrowings from new loans;
- additional equity issuances of Common Shares, Preferred Shares, Common
Units and/or Preferred Units; and
- proceeds from sales of properties.
We often use our Revolving Credit Facility to initially finance much of our
investing and financing activities. We then pay down our Revolving Credit
Facility using proceeds from long-term borrowings collateralized by our
properties as attractive financing conditions arise and equity issuances as
attractive equity market conditions arise. Amounts available under the Revolving
Credit Facility are generally computed based on 65% of the appraised value of
properties pledged as collateral. As of November 9, 2001,May 2, 2002, the maximum amount
available under our Revolving Credit Facility was $125.0is $150.0 million, of which $49.2$34.5
million wasis unused. We had a $50.0 million line of credit with Prudential
Securities Credit CorporationFactors that expiredcould negatively affect our ability to finance
our long-term capital needs in June 2001.
As of September 30,the future are discussed in our 2001 we had $91.0 million in mortgageAnnual

(1) Our loan maturities in 2002 include $6.5 million for a loan that was
extended subsequent to March 31, 2002 for a one-year period and $17.5
million for two construction loans that may each be extended for a one-year
period, subject to certain conditions; as of March 31, 2002, we were in
compliance with Deutsche
Banc Alex. Brown. We repaid this loan in October 2001 using borrowings from our
Revolving Credit Facility.the necessary conditions for us to extend the two
construction loans. We expect to meetmake payments on our long-term capital needs throughamortizing loans
using cash generated from operations. We expect to pay other loan
maturities due primarily by obtaining new loans.
(2) We expect to pay costs on construction projects underway using primarily
existing construction loan facilities in place (see discussion below).
(3) We expect to pay these items using cash generated from operations.
(4) We do not expect to have to fulfill our obligations as guarantor of joint
venture loans.
In addition to the contractual obligations set forth above, we also had the
following commitments at March 31, 2002:
- In the event that the costs to complete construction of a combinationbuilding
owned by one of cashour joint ventures exceed amounts funded by an
existing construction loan facility and member investments previously
made, we will be responsible for making additional investments in this
joint venture of up to $4.6 million.
- We may need to make our share of additional investments in our real
estate joint ventures (generally based on our percentage ownership) in
the event that additional funds are needed. In the event that the
other members of these joint ventures do not pay their share of
investments when additional funds are needed, we may then need to make
even larger investments in these joint ventures.
- In four of our joint ventures, we would be obligated to acquire the
membership interests of those joint ventures not owned by us (20% in
the case of three and 50% in the case of one) in the event that all of
the following were to occur:
(1) an 18-month period passes from operations, additional borrowingsthe date that 85% of the square feet in the
joint ventures' respective buildings become occupied (the "18-month
period");
(2) at the end of the 18-month period, the joint ventures' respective buildings
are 90% leased and occupied by tenants who are not in default under their
leases; and
(3) six months passes from existing credit facilitiesthe end of the 18-month period and new
loanseither the
buildings are not sold or we have not acquired the other members'
interests.
The amount we would need to pay for those membership interests is computed
based on the amount that the owners of those interests would receive under
the joint venture agreements in the event that the buildings were sold for
a capitalized fair value (as defined in the agreements) on a defined date.
At March 31, 2002, none of the buildings in these joint ventures have
occupancy equal to or exceeding 85%.

- At March 31, 2002, we were under contract to acquire for $16.3 million
five buildings in the Baltimore/Washington Corridor that we acquired
in April 2002 (discussed below in investing and additional equity issuances of Common Shares, Preferred Shares, Common
Units and/or Preferred Units.financing activities).

at 8815 Centre Park Drive in Columbia, Maryland for $7.3 million. Our
contract to sell the property expired subsequent to March 31, 2002.
We havehad no other material contractual obligations as of September 30, 2001 for

INVESTING AND FINANCING ACTIVITIES FOR THE NINETHREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2001:MARCH 31, 2002.
During the ninethree months ended September 30, 2001,March 31, 2002, we acquired a parcel of land
for $84.6
million 12 office buildings totaling 709,562 square feet and a 30,855 square
foot office building undergoing redevelopment. These acquisitions were$3.8 million. This acquisition was financed by:
o- - using $33.1$3.0 million in borrowings from our Revolving Credit Facility;
o using $24.1 million in borrowings froma new mortgage loansloan payable; o assuming $15.8 million in mortgage loans payable;
o issuing 310,342 Common Units in our Operating Partnership valued at
$3.3 million; and
o- - using cash reserves for the balance.
During the ninethree months ended September 30, 2001,March 31, 2002, we completed the construction
of onetwo office buildingbuildings totaling 78,460127,167 square feet. Costs incurred on this buildingthese
buildings through September 30, 2001March 31, 2002 totaled $13.5$20.8 million. We borrowed
$6.5These costs were funded
in part using $10.0 million underin proceeds from a construction loan facility whichthat
was repaid on April 6,
2001.February 25, 2002 using proceeds from a new loan. We also used
$4.5 million in contributions from a joint venture partner prior to our
acquisition of that joint venture partner's interest in February 2002; the
acquisition of the joint venture partner's interest was funded primarily using
proceeds from a new loan. The balance of the costs was funded primarily using
proceeds from our Revolving Credit Facility and cash from operations.

As of September 30, 2001,March 31, 2002 (excluding the construction activities of two joint
ventures), we had construction activities underway on sixfour buildings totaling
532,000405,000 square feet that were 47.2%75.0% pre-leased, including one building which is 52% completenearing
completion that commenced operations in September 2001.March 2002 on 10.4% of the building's
103,000 rentable square feet. Estimated costs upon completion for these projects
total approximately $89.1$70.2 million. Costs incurred on these buildings through
September 30, 2001March 31, 2002 totaled $62.0$58.3 million. We have construction loan facilities in
place totaling $61.9$48.2 million to finance the construction of fourthree of these
projects. Borrowingsprojects; borrowings under these facilities totaled $31.4$31.0 million at September 30, 2001.March 31,
2002. We also used borrowings from our Revolving Credit Facility and proceeds
from debt refinancings to fund these activities. In addition, we used $9.6$5.1
million in contributions from a joint venture partnerspartner to finance the
construction of twoone of these buildings.
We have experienced a slower rate of leasing in our
construction projects than in recent years due in part to additional competing
space being available in the markets where these projects are located and slower
economic growth in these markets than in previous years.
During the ninethree months ended September 30, 2001,March 31, 2002, we acquired the remaining 20%
interest not previously owned by us in one of our unconsolidated real estate
joint ventures, MOR Montpelier LLC, and simultaneously sold the 43,785 square
foot building owned by that entity for net proceeds of $1.1 million. We also
acquired a 50% interest in MOR Montpelier 3 LLC, an entity developing a parcel
of land located in Columbia, Maryland. Due primarily to the net effect of these
transactions, our investments in unconsolidated real estate joint ventures
increaseddecreased by $4.4 million primarily
due to our investment in four new joint ventures: MOR Montpelier LLC, Airport
Square XXII, LLC, Gateway 70 LLC and MOR Forbes LLC.$307,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2002.

FUNDS FROM OPERATIONS
We consider Funds from Operations ("FFO") to be meaningful to investors as
a measure of the financial performance of an equity REIT when considered with
the financial data presented under generally accepted accounting principles
("GAAP"). Under the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts'
("NAREIT") definition, FFO means net income (loss) computed using GAAP,
excluding gains (or losses) from debt restructuring and sales of property, plus
real estate-related depreciation and amortization and after adjustments for
unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures, although we have included gains
from the sales of properties to the extent such gains related to redevelopmentdevelopment
services provided. FFO assuming conversion of share options, Common Unit
warrants, Preferred Units and Preferred Shares adjusts FFO assuming conversion
of securities that are convertible into our Common Shares when such conversion
does not increase our diluted FFO per share in a given year. The FFO we present
may not be comparable to the FFO of other REITs since they may interpret the
current NAREIT definition of FFO differently or they may not use the current
NAREIT definition of FFO. FFO is not the same as cash generated from operating
activities or net income determined in accordance with GAAP. FFO is not
necessarily an indication of our cash flow available to fund cash needs.
Additionally, it should not be used as an alternative to net income when
evaluating our financial performance or to cash flow from operating, investing
and financing activities when evaluating our liquidity or ability to make cash
distributions or pay debt service. Our FFO for the three and nine months ended September 30,March 31,
2002 and 2001 and 2000 are summarized in the following table:

INFLATION
We have not been significantly impacted by inflation during the periods
presented in this report due mostly to the relatively low inflation rates in our
markets. Most of our tenants are obligated to pay their share of a building's
operating expenses to the extent such expenses exceed amounts established in
their leases, based on historical expense levels. In addition, some of our
tenants are obligated to pay their share of all of a building's operating
expenses. These arrangements reduce our exposure to increases in such costs
resulting from inflation.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
We are exposed to certain market risks, the most predominant of which is
changeschange in interest rates. Increases in interest rates can result in increased
interest expense under our Revolving Credit Facility and our other mortgage
loans payable carrying variable interest rate terms. Increases in interest rates
can also result in increased interest expense when our loans payable carrying
fixed interest rate terms mature and need to be refinanced. Our debt strategy
favors long-term, fixed rate,fixed-rate, secured debt over variable-rate debt to minimize
the risk of short-term increases in interest rates. As of September 30, 2001,
64.5%March 31, 2002, 59.3%
of our mortgage and other loans payable balance carried fixed interest rates. We
also use interest rate swap and interest rate cap agreements to reduce the
impact of interest rate changes.
The following table sets forth our long-term debt obligations, principal
cash flows by scheduled maturity and weighted average interest rates and estimated
fair value ("FV") at
