HERITAGE PROPERTY INVESTMENT TRUST, INC.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
Basis of Presentation
The condensed consolidated financial statements of Heritage Property Investment Trust, Inc. (“Heritage” or the “Company”) contained in this report were prepared from the books and records of the Company without audit in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial statements and in conformity with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and in the opinion of management, include all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) necessary to present a fair statement of results for the interim periods presented. However, amounts presented in the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2004 are derived from the audited financial statements of the Company at that date. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year. Certain reclassifications of 2004 amounts, consisting primarily of discontinued operations, have been made to conform to the 2005 presentation. In addition, certain 2004 amounts have been restated as decribed in Note 2.
The condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company include the accounts and operations of the Company and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K/A, as amended and restated, for its fiscal year ended December 31, 2004, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 9, 2005.
On October 17, 2005, Heritage determined that its previously issued financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003, and for each of the quarters therein, and its unaudited quarterly financial statements for the periods ended March 31, 2005 and June 30, 2005, need to be restated to correct an error. The error pertained to the unrecorded effects of certain previously granted stock options subject to a tax-offset provision included in the employment agreement of Thomas C. Prendergast, Heritage’s Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer.
In January 2000, Heritage entered into this employment agreement with Mr. Prendergast, providing for, among other things, annual grants of stock options to be made to Mr. Prendergast. In addition, the employment agreement requires Heritage to make certain payments to Mr. Prendergast to offset any taxes he incurs in connection with the exercise of those stock options.
As a result of the discovery of the error, the Company has amended its historical financial statements noted above to record the liability for the tax-offset payments that would be made to Mr. Prendergast in the future should he exercise any stock options and to reflect that this liability is subject to variable accounting treatment pursuant to Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Interpretation No. 44, Accounting for Certain Transactions Involving Stock Compensation—an Interpretation of APB Opinion No. 25 (“FIN No. 44”). In addition, these historical financial statements have been amended to reflect that the stock options subject to the tax-offset provision are also subject to variable accounting treatment pursuant to FIN No. 44. These amended financial statements are contained in the Company’s amended Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2004, amended Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q/A for the quarter ended March 31, 2005 and amended Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q/A for the quarter ended June 30, 2005, each as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 9, 2005.

HERITAGE PROPERTY INVESTMENT TRUST, INC.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)
3. Income Taxes
The Company has elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) under the Internal Revenue Code and believes it is operating so as to qualify as a REIT. In order to qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, the Company must, among other things, distribute to shareholders at least 90% of its taxable income. It is the Company’s policy to distribute at least 100% of its taxable income to its shareholders. Accordingly, no provision has been made for federal income taxes.
4. Gain on Sale of Marketable Securities
The Company received shares of a publicly traded company during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2005 in settlement of the rejection of certain leases in connection with bankruptcy proceedings of the publicly traded company. The Company accounts for investments in securities of publicly traded companies in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (“SFAS”) No. 115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Investment. All shares issued to the Company during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2005 were sold during the second quarter of 2005 for proceeds of $0.1 million resulting in a gain of $8,000.
The Company also received shares of a publicly traded company during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2004 in settlement of the rejection of certain leases in connection with bankruptcy proceedings of the publicly traded company. The Company had classified the securities as available-for-sale in the June 30, 2004 consolidated balance sheet. All shares classified as available-for-sale at June 30, 2004 were sold during the three-month period ended September 30, 2004 for $1.1 million, resulting in a realized gain of $0.5 million. The unrealized holding gain of $0.5 million included in other comprehensive income as of June 30, 2004 was reclassified to realized gain during the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2004.
5. Stock-Based Compensation
At September 30, 2005, the Company had one stock-based compensation plan (the “Plan”). The Company accounts for the Plan under the recognition and measurement principles of APB Opinion No. 25, and related Interpretations.
As described in Note 2, due to a tax-offset payment provision contained in the employment agreement of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, 920,000 of the Company’s stock options are subject to variable accounting under APB Opinion No. 25 at September 30, 2005 and December 31, 2004. The combined expense related to these stock options and the related tax-offset feature subject to variable accounting was $0.1 million and $2.8 million for the three-month periods ended September 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively, and $4.8 million and $1.2 million for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively, and is recorded as general and administrative expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. At September 30, 2005, these options had exercise prices ranging from $24.36 to $28.47, a weighted average exercise price of $25.43, and a weighted average remaining contractual life of 5.78 years. None of these options have been exercised as of September 30, 2005.
Except for the stock options subject to variable accounting described above, no stock-based compensation cost related to stock option grants is reflected in the Company’s reported results as all options granted under the Plan have an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common stock and the number of shares were fixed on the date of grant.

These shares are subject to risk of forfeiture and transfer restrictions, which terminate on March 4, 2006, subject to the continued employment of these individuals with the Company through that date.

Annual Performance Shares
The Company recognizes compensation expense with respect to performance-based stock grants ratably over the one-year performance period and three-year vesting period.
In March 2003, the Company issued 119,500 shares of restricted stock related to 2002 performance and based on a fair market value on the date of issuance of $24.36 per share. During each of the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2005 and 2004, the Company recognized $0.6 million of compensation expense related to these shares, including the reimbursement of the taxes to be paid by Mr. Prendergast related to the shares. The reimbursement of taxes was paid pursuant to Mr. Prendergast’s employment agreement.

In March 2004, the Company issued 108,000 shares of restricted stock related to 2003 performance and based on a fair market value on the date of issuance of $28.47 per share.

included as unearned compensation on the accompanying September 30, 2005 balance sheet and will be amortized ratably through the remaining vesting period.
During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2005, the Company also recorded $0.9 million of compensation expense related to 111,200 shares of restricted stock anticipated to be issued by the Company in 2006 related to 2005 performance, including the reimbursement of the taxes to be paid by Mr. Prendergast related to the shares. This accrual is based on an estimate of the number of shares expected to be issued using the Company’s September 30, 2005 share price of $35.00 per share. Assuming these shares are issued, the Company will recognize compensation expense with respect to these restricted shares ratably over the one-year performance and three-year vesting periods.
Deferred Stock Units
The Company maintains a compensation plan relating to the payment of fees and other compensation to non-employee directors. Non-employee directors (other than directors who are also trustees of the Company’s largest stockholder, Net Realty Holding Trust) receive an annual retainer, fees for Board meetings attended, Board committee chair retainers and fees for Board committee meetings attended. Except as described below, these fees are typically paid in cash.
Under the plan, on January 1 of each year, the Company credits each non-employee director entitled to receive compensation with an annual grant of 1,000 “deferred stock units” for his or her service on the Board during the prior year. On January 1 of each service year (“Service Year”), the Company begins to accrue compensation expense for deferred stock units expected to be credited for service on the Board during that Service Year. The value of the deferred stock units, based on the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the date of the grant, is amortized to compensation expense over the Service Year.
In addition, beginning on the date on which deferred stock units are credited to a director for the prior Service Year, the number of deferred stock units credited is increased by additional deferred stock units in an amount equal to the relationship of dividends declared to the value of the common stock of the Company. The deferred stock units credited to a director are not settled until he or she ceases to be on the Board of Directors, at which time an equivalent number of shares of common stock of the Company will be issued.
Deferred stock units may also be credited to directors in lieu of the payment of cash compensation. Under the plan, directors may elect to receive their cash compensation, which is paid every six months, in the form of cash, shares of common stock or additional deferred stock units. Deferred stock units credited to a director in lieu of cash compensation have the same terms as deferred stock units credited for annual service, except that these expected deferred stock units are credited in January and July of each year.
On January 1, 2005, an aggregate of 5,500 deferred stock units were credited to those directors entitled to receive compensation for the 2004 Service Year. In addition, three directors elected to receive all or a portion of their cash compensation in the form of deferred stock units. The Company credited these directors an aggregate of 4,564 additional deferred stock units. Compensation expense related to all deferred stock units credited for the 2004 Service Year was $0.3 million.
In addition, during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2005, the Company accrued $0.4 million of compensation expense related to director compensation, of which $0.3 million relates to 2,112
13

5. Stock-Based Compensation (Continued)
deferred stock units credited to directors in July 2005 and other deferred stock units expected to be credited to directors for the 2005 Service Year and as cash compensation for those directors electing to receive deferred stock units in lieu of cash compensation. The unamortized compensation expense of $48,000 is included as unearned compensation on the accompanying September 30, 2005 balance sheet and will be amortized ratably during the remaining 2005 Service Year.
6. Earnings Per Share

The operations and cash flows for the assets sold could not be clearly distinguished, both operationally and for financial reporting purposes, from the rest of the shopping center. Accordingly, no amounts have been reclassified as discontinued operations in the accompanying financial statements.

9. Investments in Unconsolidated Joint Ventures
Lakes Crossing Shopping Center
In May 2004, the Company acquired a 50% interest in a joint venture for the development and construction of a 303,000 square foot shopping center, of which the joint venture will own approximately 215,000 square feet, located in a suburb of Grand Rapids, Michigan. The Company accounts for the joint venture under the equity method of accounting and made an initial equity investment of $3.3 million and subsequently increased that investment with an additional $0.7 million anticipated contribution in the three-month period ended June 30, 2005. At the time of the joint venture’s formation, the Company also provided a short-term bridge loan of approximately $9.2 million to the joint venture, which was repaid in November 2004. The Company is not the record-keeper of the joint venture. Therefore, the operations of the joint venture, primarily consisting of incidental activity related to operating restaurants located on out-parcels, are being reported on a three-month lag basis. Hence, the operations for the period from March 1, 2005 through June 30, 2005 and October 1, 2004 through June 30, 2005 are included in the accompanying three and nine-month consolidated statements of operations, respectively, and are classified as Equity in Income from Unconsolidated Joint Ventures.
The Company has fully guaranteed the repayment of a $22 million construction loan obtained by the joint venture from Key Bank, National Association. The Key Bank loan matures in November 2006 (subject to a one-year extension). As of September 30, 2005, $16.6 million was outstanding under the construction loan. Such amount is recorded on the books and records of the joint venture. In the event the Company is obligated to repay all or a portion of the construction loan pursuant to the guarantee, the Company (i) may remove the manager of the joint venture for cause and terminate all agreements with the manager, (ii) would receive a promissory note from the joint venture for the amount paid by the Company together with a first priority mortgage on the property, and (iii) may prohibit all distributions from the joint venture or payment of fees by the joint venture until the principal and accrued interest on the loan is repaid. The estimated fair value of the guarantee as of September 30, 2005 is not material to the Company’s financial position. Accordingly, no liability or additional investment has been recorded related to the fair value of the guarantee.
Skillman Abrams Shopping Center
In April 2005, the Company, through its joint venture with Intercontinental Real Estate Investment Fund III, LLC, a fund sponsored and managed by Intercontinental Real Estate Corporation, acquired the Skillman Abrams Shopping Center (“Skillman Abrams”), a 133,000 square foot shopping center located in Dallas, Texas, for a total purchase price of approximately $19 million, including assumed mortgage debt. The Company has a 25% interest in the joint venture and is the property manager of Skillman Abrams pursuant to a property management agreement. The Company accounts for the joint venture under the equity method of accounting and is the record-keeper of the joint venture. Therefore, there is no lag in

reporting the operations of the joint venture and the operations for the period from July 1, 2005 through September 30, 2005 and from the acquisition in April 2005 through September 30, 2005 are included in the accompanying three and nine-month consolidated statements of operations, respectively, and are classified as Equity in Income From Unconsolidated Joint Ventures.

Prior Line of Credit
As of December 31, 2004, the Company was party to a $350 million unsecured line of credit with a group of lenders and Fleet National Bank, as agent. Bradley OP and Heritage Property Investment Limited Partnership (“Heritage OP”), the Company’s two operating partnerships, were the borrowers under this line of credit, and the Company and certain of the Company’s other subsidiaries guaranteed this line of credit. This line of credit was used principally to fund growth opportunities and for working capital purposes. At September 30, 2004, $213.0 million was outstanding on this prior line of credit.
New Line of Credit
Under its terms, the Company’s prior line of credit would have matured on April 29, 2005. However, on March 29, 2005, the Company refinanced the prior line of credit, entering into a new three-year $400 million unsecured line of credit with a group of lenders and Wachovia Bank, National Association, as agent, expiring March 28, 2008, subject to a one-year extension. At Heritage’s request, subject to the agent’s consent, this new line of credit may be increased to $500 million. Heritage is the borrower under this new line of credit and Bradley OP, Heritage OP and certain of the Company’s other subsidiaries have guaranteed the new line of credit. The new line of credit is being used principally to fund growth opportunities and for working capital purposes.
The Company’s ability to borrow under the new line of credit is subject to the Company’s ongoing compliance with a number of financial and other covenants. This new line of credit, except under some circumstances, limits the Company’s ability to make distributions in excess of 90% of the Company’s annual funds from operations. In addition, this new line of credit bears interest at either the lender’s base rate or a floating rate based on a spread over LIBOR ranging from 62.5 basis points to 115 basis points, depending upon our debt rating. The new credit facility also includes a competitive bid option program that allows the Company to hold auctions amongst the participating lenders in the facility for up to fifty percent of the facility amount. The variable rate in effect at September 30, 2005 was 4.4%. This new line of credit also has a facility fee based on the amount committed ranging from 15 to 25 basis points, depending upon our debt rating, and requires quarterly payments.
Heritage loaned all of the proceeds from the new line of credit to Bradley OP, establishing a related party line of credit facility. Bradley OP used these funds to repay the entire outstanding balance of the prior line of credit. As of September 30, 2005, $359.0 million was outstanding under the new line of credit facility.
On October 20, 2005, Heritage obtained a waiver (the “Waiver”) under the Credit Agreement. The Waiver waives any potential event of default or event of default under the Credit Agreement that was or
19

could have been caused by the restatement of our historical financial statements, as discussed in Note 2. As a result of the restatement, among other things, Heritage was no longer able to make the representations under the Credit Agreement concerning the conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles of its previously delivered financial statements. Because the restatement has not resulted in Heritage’s having breached any of the financial covenants in the Credit Agreement, the Waiver does not waive or modify any such financial covenants. Under the terms of the Waiver, the Credit Agreement remains in full force and effect. Therefore, Heritage is currently permitted to borrow under its line of credit.
Unsecured Notes Payable
On April 1, 2004, the Company completed the issuance and sale of $200 million principal amount of unsecured 5.125% notes due April 15, 2014. These notes were issued pursuant to the terms of an indenture the Company entered into with LaSalle National Bank, as trustee. The notes are shown net of an original issue discount of $1.7 million that is being accreted on a basis that approximates the effective interest method over the term of the notes. The notes may be redeemed at any time at the option of the Company, in whole or in part, at a redemption price equal to the sum of (1) the principal amount of the notes being redeemed plus accrued interest on the notes to the redemption date and (2) a make-whole amount, if any, with respect to the notes that is designed to provide yield maintenance protection to the holders of these notes.
On October 15, 2004, the Company completed the issuance and sale of $150 million principal amount of unsecured 4.5% notes due October 15, 2009. These notes were issued pursuant to the terms of an indenture the Company entered into with LaSalle National Bank, as trustee. The notes are shown net of an original issue discount of $0.1 million that is being accreted on a basis that approximates the effective interest method over the term of the notes. The notes may be redeemed at any time at the option of the Company, in whole or in part, at a redemption price equal to the sum of (1) the principal amount of the notes being redeemed plus accrued interest on the notes to the redemption date and (2) a make-whole amount, if any, with respect to the notes that is designed to provide yield maintenance protection to the holders of these notes.
In addition, the notes described above have been guaranteed by Bradley OP and Heritage OP. The indentures under which these notes were issued contain various covenants, including covenants which restrict the amount of indebtedness that may be incurred by the Company and its subsidiaries. The Company believes it is in compliance with all applicable covenants under these indentures as of September 30, 2005.
In connection with the Company’s acquisition of Bradley OP in September 2000, Heritage assumed unsecured notes payable consisting of $100 million, 7.2% fixed-rate issue maturing on January 15, 2008 and $1.5 million of other debt. These notes are all held directly by Bradley OP. The amount of unsecured Bradley OP notes payable outstanding at September 30, 2005 and December 31, 2004 was $101.5 million.
11. Related Party Transactions
In connection with the formation of the Company, in July 1999, environmental studies were not completed for all of the properties contributed by the Company’s largest stockholder, Net Realty Holding Trust (“NETT”). NETT has agreed to indemnify the Company for environmental costs of up to $50 million with respect to those contributed properties. The environmental costs include completing
20
HERITAGE PROPERTY INVESTMENT TRUST, INC.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)
11. Related Party Transactions (Continued)
environmental studies and any required remediation. Since its formation, the Company has been reimbursed by NETT for approximately $2.0 million of environmental costs pursuant to this indemnity. As of September 30, 2005 and December 31, 2004, the Company was due $0.4 million under this indemnity.
In November 1999, the Company entered into a joint venture with an affiliate of NETT for the acquisition and development of a 365,000 square foot commercial office building at 131 Dartmouth Street, Boston, Massachusetts. This joint venture is owned 94% by the affiliate of NETT and 6% by the Company. The Company was issued this interest as part of a management arrangement with the joint venture pursuant to which the Company manages the building. The Company has no ongoing capital contribution requirements with respect to this office building, which was completed in 2003. The Company accounts for its interest in this joint venture using the cost method and has not expended any amounts on the office building through September 30, 2005.
In February 2004, the Company entered into an eleven-year lease with this joint venture for approximately 31,000 square feet of space and moved its corporate headquarters to this space during the first quarter of 2004. Under the terms of this lease, which were negotiated on an arms-length basis, the Company began paying rent during the three-month period ended March 31, 2005. The Company pays $1.1 million per year in minimum rent through 2009 and $1.2 million per year from 2009 through 2015.
12. Minority Interest
Exchangeable Limited Partnership Units
Outstanding exchangeable limited partnership units consist of 673,270 and 522,044 Bradley OP Units (“OP Units”) at September 30, 2005 and December 31, 2004, respectively, not owned by the Company. The holders of these OP Units may present such OP Units to Bradley OP for redemption at any time (subject to certain restrictions with particular holders). Upon presentation of an OP Unit, Bradley OP must redeem such OP Unit for cash equal to the then value of a share of common stock of the Company (“Common Stock”), except that the Company may, at its election, in lieu of a cash redemption, acquire such OP Unit for one share of Common Stock. One share of Common Stock is generally the economic equivalent of the OP Unit, and the quarterly distribution that may be paid to the holder of an OP Unit equals the quarterly dividend that may be paid to the holder of a share of Common Stock. During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2005, 25,283 OP units were redeemed for $0.9 million of cash and 176,509 OP units were issued for $6.1 million of cash in connection with an acquisition of properties.
Other Minority Interest
During the three-month period ended September 30, 2005, the Company purchased the 40% minority partnership interest in Williamson Square Shopping Center and therefore had no Other Minority Interest recorded on its September 30, 2005 balance sheet.
Series B and C Preferred Units
On September 7, 2004, the Company redeemed all 1,000,000 outstanding 8.875% Series C Cumulative Redeemable Perpetual Preferred Units of Bradley OP, at a redemption price of $25.00 per unit, plus approximately $0.413 of accrued and unpaid distributions. There were no unamortized issuance costs

associated with the Series C Preferred Units, and therefore, the Company did not incur a charge in connection with this redemption.
On February 23, 2004, the Company redeemed all 2,000,000 outstanding 8.875% Series B Cumulative Redeemable Perpetual Preferred Units of Bradley OP, at a redemption price of $25.00 per unit, plus approximately $0.3266 of accrued and unpaid distributions. There were no unamortized issuance costs associated with the Series B Preferred Units, and therefore, the Company did not incur a charge in connection with this redemption.
13. Derivatives and Hedging Instruments
SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities (“SFAS 133”), as amended and interpreted, establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities. As required by SFAS 133, the Company records all derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value. The accounting for changes in the fair value of derivatives depends on the intended use of the derivative and the resulting designation.
The Company’s objective in using derivatives is to add stability to interest expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements or other identified risks. To accomplish this objective, the Company primarily uses interest rate swaps as part of its cash flow hedging strategy to hedge the variable cash flows associated with floating-rate debt and forecasted interest payments on forecasted issuances of debt.
For derivatives designated as cash flow hedges, the effective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative is initially reported in Other Comprehensive Income (outside of earnings) and subsequently reclassified to earnings when the hedged transactions affect earnings, and the ineffective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative is recognized directly in earnings.
As of September 30, 2005, the Company had no outstanding derivatives. During the first and third quarters of 2004, respectively, the Company entered into two sets of forward-starting interest rate swaps to mitigate the risk of changes in forecasted interest payments related to two separate forecasted long-term debt issuances. During the quarter ended March 31, 2004, the Company terminated the first of the forward-starting swaps at their fair value of $1.2 million upon issuance of the relevant hedged debt. During the quarter ended December 31, 2004, the Company terminated the second set of forward-starting swaps at their fair value of ($1.7) million upon issuance of the relevant hedged debt. These amounts were deferred in Other Comprehensive Income and are being reclassified to Interest Expense as scheduled interest payments are made on the hedged debt. As of September 30, 2005, the Company estimates that $0.2 million will be reclassified from Other Comprehensive Income as an increase in interest expense during the next 12 months.
14. Segment Reporting
The Company predominantly operates in one industry segment—real estate ownership and management of retail properties. As of September 30, 2005, the Company owned 171 community and neighborhood shopping centers. Management reviews operating and financial data for each property separately and independently from all other properties when making resource allocation decisions and

measuring performance. The Company defines operating segments as individual properties with no segment representing more than 10% of rental revenue.
15. Guarantor of Notes Payable
During 2004, the Company issued $350 million aggregate principal amount of its unsecured notes in two separate transactions to certain initial purchasers, who then sold those notes to qualified institutional buyers in reliance on Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). These notes were guaranteed by Bradley OP and Heritage OP (the “Guarantors”). Each of the guarantees is full and unconditional and joint and several.
Because these notes were sold pursuant to exemptions from registration under the Securities Act, the notes and guarantees were subject to transfer restrictions. In connection with the issuance of the notes and guarantees, the Company and the Guarantors entered into registration rights agreements with the initial purchasers in which the Company and the Guarantors agreed to register with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) under the Securities Act new notes (“Registered Notes”) and new guarantees (“Registered Guarantees”) to be exchanged for the original notes and guarantees. Each of the Registered Guarantees is full and unconditional and joint and several.
The Company and the Guarantors have registered the Registered Notes and Registered Guarantees under the Securities Act. The Registered Notes and Registered Guarantees were subsequently exchanged for the original notes and guarantees. Rule 3-10(a) of Regulation S-X requires the Company to file separate financial statements for guarantors of registered securities. In lieu of providing such separate financial statements with respect to a wholly owned guarantor, Rule 3-10(f) of Regulation S-X permits the Company to include a footnote with respect to its guarantor and non-guarantor subsidiaries in its financial statements.
As a result of the foregoing, this footnote is being provided pursuant to Rule 3-10(f) of Regulation S-X in lieu of providing separate annual financial statements with respect to Heritage OP, a wholly-owned Guarantor. Financial statements with respect to Bradley OP, a non-wholly owned Guarantor, are filed separately with the SEC.
The following represents summarized condensed consolidating financial information as of September 30, 2005 and December 31, 2004 with respect to the financial position of the Company and for the three-and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2005, and 2004, with respect to the results of operations and cash flows of the Company and its subsidiaries. Financial information as of December 31, 2004 and for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2004 has been restated as described in Note 2. The “Parent Company” column presents the financial information of the Company, the primary obligor of the Registered Notes, under the equity method of accounting. The Guarantors’ columns are segregated between Bradley OP, which is 98% owned by the Company, and Heritage OP, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. The “Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries” column presents the financial information of all non-guarantor subsidiaries, which consists primarily of subsidiaries of the Guarantors.

16. Newly Issued Accounting Standards
In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued SFAS No. 123R, Share-Based Compensation (“SFAS No. 123R”). SFAS No. 123R supersedes APB No. 25 and amends SFAS No. 95, Statement of Cash Flows. SFAS No. 123R requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recorded as an expense based on their fair values. The grant-date fair value of employee share options and similar instruments will be estimated using an option-pricing model adjusted for any unique characteristics of a particular instrument. If an equity award is modified after the grant date, incremental compensation cost will be recognized in an amount equal to the excess of the fair value of the modified award over the fair value of the original award immediately before the modification. Currently, the Company accounts for share-based compensation in accordance with APB No. 25 and related Interpretations. The Company is required to account for share-based compensation to employees in accordance with SFAS No. 123R on a modified prospective basis beginning January 1, 2006.

HERITAGE PROPERTY INVESTMENT TRUST, INC.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)
16. Newly Issued Accounting Standards (Continued)
Under the modified prospective basis, compensation cost is recognized beginning with the effective date (a) based on the requirements of SFAS No. 123R for all share-based payments granted after the effective date and (b) based on the requirements of SFAS No. 123 for all awards granted to employees prior to the effective date of SFAS No. 123R that remain unvested on the effective date. The Company does not expect the adoption of SFAS No. 123R to have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial position, or liquidity.

ITEM 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the historical consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto. Some of the statements contained in this discussion constitute forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements relate to expectations, beliefs, projections, future plans and strategies, anticipated events or trends and similar expressions concerning matters that are not historical facts. The forward-looking statements reflect the Company’s current views about future events. The forward-looking statements made herein are subject to risks, uncertainties, assumptions and changes in circumstances that may cause the Company’s actual results to differ significantly from those expressed in any forward-looking statement. You should not rely on forward-looking statements since they involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that are, in some cases, beyond the Company’s control and that could materially affect actual results. Factors that could cause actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from those expressed or implied by forward-looking statements made herein include: financial performance and operations of the Company’s shopping centers, including the Company’s tenants, real estate conditions, current and future bankruptcies of the Company’s tenants; execution of shopping center redevelopment programs; the Company’s ability to finance the Company’s operations, such as the inability to obtain debt or equity financing on favorable terms; possible future downgrades in our credit rating; completion of pending acquisitions; risks of development, including the failure of pending developments and redevelopments to be completed on time and within budget and the failure of newly acquired or developed properties to perform as expected; the availability of additional acquisitions; execution of joint venture opportunities; difficulties assimilating acquisitions made through future joint ventures; our inability to exercise voting control over the joint ventures through which we own or develop some of our properties; the level and volatility of interest rates and changes in the capitalization rates with respect to the acquisition and disposition of properties; financial stability of tenants, including the ability of tenants to pay rent, the decision of tenants to close stores and the effect of bankruptcy laws; the ability to maintain our status as a REIT for federal income tax purpose; governmental approvals, actions and initiatives; environmental/safety requirements and costs; risks of disposition strategies, including the failure to complete sales on a timely basis and the failure to reinvest sale proceeds in a manner that generates favorable returns; changes in economic, business, competitive market and regulatory conditions; acts of terrorism or war; the effects of hurricanes and other natural disasters; and other risks detailed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2004 and from time to time in other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The forward-looking statements contained herein represent the Company’s judgment as of the date of this report, and the Company cautions readers not to place undue reliance on such statements.
For the reasons set forth in greater detail in our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2004, and our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q/A for the periods ended March 31, 2005 and June 30, 2005, we have amended and restated our financial statements and other financial information for the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003, and for each of the quarters therein, as well as for the quarterly periods ended March 31, 2005 and June 30, 2005. Those amendments were made to correct an error pertaining to the unrecorded effects of certain stock options previously granted to Thomas C. Prendergast, our Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer. Those stock options are subject to a tax-offset provision included in Mr. Prendergast’s employment agreement. In the restatement of the periods mentioned, we recorded a liability and recognized additional compensation expense to reflect the effect of the tax-offset feature, and accounted for the stock options subject to the tax-offset feature on a variable basis.
We are a fully integrated, self-administered and self-managed real estate investment trust, commonly known as a “REIT.” We are one of the nation’s largest owners of neighborhood and community shopping centers. As of September 30, 2005, we had a shopping center portfolio consisting of 171 shopping centers,
32
located in 30 states and totaling approximately 34.9 million square feet of gross leaseable area, commonly referred to as “GLA.” Approximately 28.7 million square feet of this GLA was owned by the Company. Our shopping center portfolio was approximately 92.5% leased as of September 30, 2005.
Our operating strategy is to own (directly or through joint ventures) and to manage a quality portfolio of community and neighborhood shopping centers that will provide stable cash flow and investment returns. Our focus is to own primarily grocer- and multi-anchored centers with a diverse tenant base in attractive geographic locations with strong demographics. We derive substantially all of our revenues from rentals and recoveries received from tenants under existing leases on our properties. Our operating results therefore depend primarily on our tenants’ ability to pay rent.
Generally, we do not expect our net operating income to deviate significantly in the short-term. This is because our leases with our tenants provide us a stable cash flow over the long-term. In addition, other than in circumstances such as higher than anticipated snow removal costs, utility expenses or real estate taxes, our operating expenses generally remain predictable.
However, as an owner of community and neighborhood shopping centers, our performance is linked to economic conditions in the retail industry in those markets where our centers are located. The retail sector continues to change as a result of industry consolidation caused by the continued strength of Wal-Mart and retail bankruptcies. This consolidation in turn has created an excess of available retail space and increased competition for that space. We believe that the nature of the properties that we own and invest in, primarily grocer- and multi-anchored neighborhood and community shopping centers in attractive markets with strong economic and demographic characteristics, provides a relatively stable revenue flow in uncertain economic times, as these properties are more resistant to economic down cycles. This stability is due to the fact that consumers still need to purchase food and other goods found at grocers, even in difficult economic times.
In the face of these challenging market conditions, we follow a dual growth strategy. First, we continue to focus on increasing our internal growth by leveraging our existing tenant relationships to improve the performance of our existing shopping center portfolio. During 2004 and the first nine months of 2005, in order to re-let vacant space within our portfolio, we incurred higher revenue enhancing capital expenditures, such as tenant improvements and leasing commissions, than in prior periods, as we re-positioned several of our centers for future growth. We anticipate incurring additional revenue enhancing capital expenditures during the remainder of 2005 consistent with our prior practice before 2004.
Secondly, we focus on achieving external growth through the expansion of our portfolio and will continue to pursue targeted acquisitions of primarily grocer- and multi-anchored neighborhood and community shopping centers in attractive markets with strong economic and demographic characteristics. We will pursue acquisitions in our existing markets as well as in new markets where a portfolio of properties might be available to enable us to establish a platform for further growth. In recent years, the market for acquisitions has been particularly competitive with a greater number of potential buyers pursuing properties. The low cap rate environment and reduced costs of funds have further served to dramatically increase prices paid for shopping center properties. As a result, our effort to expand our portfolio through acquisition has been adversely affected. We expect these conditions to persist for the foreseeable future.
To increase access to potential acquisitions and alternative sources of capital to fund future acquisitions, we have been pursuing, and will continue to pursue, joint venture arrangements with third party developers and institutional investors. To date, we have completed one joint venture arrangement with a third party developer. We have entered into additional joint venture arrangements with third party developers for the development of sites under contract in which the underlying projects are still in the approval and entitlement process. However, with respect to joint venture arrangements with third party
33
developers, because of the time anticipated for development, we generally do not expect to recognize the full economic benefit of such arrangements for 2-3 years.
In April 2005, we completed our first joint venture arrangement with an institutional investor. During the past six months, we have also sought to expand our capital raising joint venture arrangements. We anticipate that a significant amount of our acquisition activity during the foreseeable future will be through such joint venture arrangements.
In the near future, we intend to dispose of properties that no longer strategically fit within our overall portfolio or to take advantage of favorable market conditions. In addition, as noted above, we will continue to explore capital raising joint venture opportunities involving contributions of certain of our existing assets, in return for cash and a membership or partnership interest in the joint venture. These joint ventures will enable us to increase our sources of capital and our ability to pursue high quality acquisitions. This contribution of shopping center properties will represent a disposition of property, which may lead to short-term decreases in our net operating income. However, we intend to offset any such decreases by re-investing the cash proceeds received in connection with such contributions. We may use these cash proceeds to grow our existing portfolio either by direct acquisition or through future joint ventures. We may also use those proceeds to improve the quality of our balance sheet, such as by reducing our outstanding indebtedness.
During the past few years, as reflected below, our general and administrative expenses have been higher than anticipated as a result of increased staffing, various business initiatives aimed at future growth, the increased costs associated with being a public company, and unanticipated severance costs. In particular, we have incurred higher costs associated with our review of our internal controls to ensure compliance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.
As described above under “Restatement Summary”, we have also incurred additional unanticipated compensation expense to reflect the effect of the tax-offset provision contained in the employment agreement of Thomas C. Prendergast, our Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer, relating to certain stock options granted to Mr. Prendergast. Because this provision requires that we account for the stock options subject to the tax-offset provision and the tax-offset provision itself on a variable basis, if our stock price increases in the future, we will incur additional compensation expense to reflect the increased value of the stock options and higher tax reimbursement obligation. We anticipate that Mr. Prendergast’s employment agreement will be amended to eliminate this tax-offset provision relating to these stock options prior to December 31, 2005. However, we cannot assure you that this amendment will be completed prior to December 31, 2005 nor are we able to predict the precise terms of such an amendment at this time. In addition, we have incurred significant costs associated with the restatement of our historical financial statements relating to the tax-offset provision, including unanticipated professional fees (primarily, legal and accounting) and Board costs. As a result of the foregoing, we expect our general and administrative costs for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2005 to be significantly higher than previously anticipated.
We currently expect to incur additional debt in connection with future acquisitions. As of September 30, 2005, we had $1.4 billion of indebtedness, of which approximately $808.9 million was unsecured indebtedness. Although we expect to assume additional secured debt in connection with acquisitions, particularly acquisitions made in joint ventures, we intend to finance our operations and growth in the future primarily through borrowings under our line of credit facility, unsecured private or public debt offerings or by additional equity offerings.
We have identified the following critical accounting policies that affect our more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements. The preparation of our
34
consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles requires us to make judgments and estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. As a result, these estimates are subject to a degree of uncertainty.
On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to revenue recognition and the allowance for doubtful accounts receivable, real estate investments and asset impairment, and derivatives used to hedge interest-rate and credit rate risks. We state these critical accounting policies in the notes to our consolidated financial statements and at relevant sections in this discussion and analysis. Our estimates are based on information that is currently available to us and on various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ from those estimates and those estimates could be different under varying assumptions or conditions.
Revenue Recognition
Rental income with scheduled rent increases is recognized using the straight-line method over the term of the leases commencing when the tenant takes possession of the space. The aggregate excess of rental revenue recognized on a straight-line basis over cash received under applicable lease provisions is included in accounts receivable. In addition, leases for both retail and office space generally contain provisions under which the tenants reimburse us for a portion of property operating expenses and real estate taxes incurred by us, requiring us to estimate the amount of revenue from these recoveries. Such recoveries revenue is recorded based on management’s estimate of its recovery of certain operating expenses and real estate tax expenses, pursuant to the terms contained in related leases. In addition, certain of our operating leases for retail space contain contingent rent provisions under which tenants are required to pay a percentage of their sales in excess of a specified amount as additional rent. We do not recognize this contingent rental income until those tenants meet their specified sales targets, thereby triggering the additional rent obligations.
We must make estimates of the uncollectibility of our accounts receivable related to minimum rent, deferred rent, expense reimbursements and other revenue or income. We specifically analyze accounts receivable and historical bad debts, tenant concentrations, tenant creditworthiness, current economic trends and changes in our tenant payment terms when evaluating the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts receivable. These estimates have a direct impact on our net income, because a higher bad debt allowance would result in lower net income.
Real Estate Investments
When we formed in July 1999, contributed real estate investments were recorded at the carry-over basis of our predecessor, which was the fair market value of the assets in conformity with GAAP applicable to pension funds. Subsequent acquisitions of real estate investments, including those acquired in connection with our acquisition of Bradley Real Estate, Inc. in September 2000 and other acquisitions since our formation, have been, and will continue to be, recorded at cost. Expenditures that substantially extend the useful life of a real estate investment are capitalized. Expenditures for maintenance, repairs and betterments that do not materially extend the useful life of a real estate investment are expensed as incurred.
The provision for depreciation and amortization has been calculated using the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives:
Land improvements |
| 15 years |
Buildings and improvements |
| 20-39 years |
Tenant improvements |
| Shorter of useful life or term of related lease |
35
We are required to make subjective assessments as to the useful lives of our properties for purposes of determining the amount of depreciation to reflect on an annual basis with respect to our properties. These assessments have a direct impact on our net income because if we were to shorten the expected useful life of our properties or improvements, we would depreciate them over fewer years, resulting in more depreciation expense and lower net income on an annual basis during these periods.
We apply SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, to recognize and measure impairment of long-lived assets. We review each real estate investment for impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value of a real estate investment may not be recoverable. The review of recoverability is based on an estimate of the future undiscounted cash flows, excluding interest charges, expected to result from the real estate investment’s use and eventual disposition. These cash flows consider factors such as expected future operating income, trends and prospects, as well as the effects of leasing demand, competition and other factors. If impairment exists due to the inability to recover the carrying value of a real estate investment, an impairment loss is recorded to the extent that the carrying value exceeds estimated fair market value, resulting in a lower net income. No such impairment losses have been recognized to date.
Real estate investments held for sale are carried at the lower of carrying amount or fair value, less cost to sell. Depreciation and amortization are suspended during the period held for sale.
We apply SFAS No. 141, Business Combinations, to property acquisitions. Accordingly, the fair value of the real estate acquired is allocated to the acquired tangible assets, and identified intangible assets and liabilities, consisting of the value of above-market and below-market leases, other value of in-place leases and value of tenant relationships, based in each case on their fair values.
The fair value of the tangible assets of an acquired property is determined by valuing the property as if it were vacant, and the “as-if-vacant” value is then allocated based on management’s determination of the relative fair values of these assets. Management determines the as-if-vacant fair value of a property using methods similar to those used by independent appraisers. Factors considered by management in performing these analyses include an estimate of carrying costs during the expected lease-up periods considering current market conditions and costs to execute similar leases. In estimating carrying costs, management includes real estate taxes, insurance and other operating expenses and estimates of lost rental revenue during the expected lease-up periods based on current market demand. Management also estimates costs to execute similar leases including leasing commissions, legal and other related costs. The “as-if-vacant” value is then allocated amongst land, land improvements, building, and building improvements based on the Company’s estimate of replacement costs.
In allocating the fair value of the identified intangible assets and liabilities of an acquired property, above-market and below-market in-place lease values are recorded based on the present value (using an interest rate which reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) of the difference between (i) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to the in-place leases and (ii) management’s estimate of fair market lease rates for the corresponding in-place leases, measured over a period equal to the remaining non-cancelable term of the lease. The capitalized above-market lease values are amortized as a reduction of rental income over the remaining non-cancelable terms of the respective leases. The capitalized below-market lease values are amortized as an increase to rental income over the initial term and any fixed rate renewal periods in the respective leases.
The aggregate value of other acquired intangible assets, consisting of in-place leases and tenant relationships, is measured by the excess of (i) the purchase price paid for a property after adjusting existing in-place leases to market rental rates over (ii) the estimated fair value of the property as if vacant, determined as set forth above. This aggregate value is allocated between in-place lease values and tenant relationships, if any, based on management’s evaluation of the specific characteristics of each tenant’s lease; however, the value of tenant relationships has not been separated from in-place lease value for the
36
additional interests in real estate entities because such value and its consequence to amortization expense is estimated to be immaterial for these particular acquisitions. Should future acquisitions of properties result in allocating material amounts to the value of tenant relationships, an amount would be separately allocated and amortized over the estimated life of the relationship. The value of in-place leases exclusive of the value of above-market and below-market in-place leases is amortized to expense over the remaining non-cancelable periods of the respective leases. If a lease were to be terminated prior to its stated expiration, all unamortized amounts relating to that lease would be written off.
Investments in Unconsolidated Joint Ventures
Upon entering into a joint venture agreement, the Company assesses whether or not the joint venture is considered a variable interest entity in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Interpretation No. 46R, Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities (“FIN 46R”). The Company has no interests in variable interest entities as of September 30, 2005. The Company accounts for its investment in joint ventures that are not deemed to be variable interest entities pursuant to Statement of Position No. 78-9, Accounting for Investments in Real Estate Ventures (“SOP No. 78-9”) and APB No. 18, The Equity Method of Accounting for Investments in Common Stock.
As of September 30, 2005, the Company accounts for its two unconsolidated joint ventures under the equity method of accounting because it exercises significant influence over, but does not control, these entities. These investments were recorded initially at cost, as Investments in Unconsolidated Joint Ventures, and subsequently adjusted for an allocation of equity in earnings, plus cash contributions, and less cash distributions. Under the equity method of accounting, the net equity investment of the Company is reflected on the consolidated balance sheet, and the Company’s allocation of net income or loss from the joint ventures is included on the consolidated statements of operations as Equity in Income From Unconsolidated Joint Ventures. The Company’s allocation of joint venture income or loss follows the joint venture’s distribution priorities.
In accordance with the provisions of SOP No. 78-9, the Company recognizes fees and interest received from the joint venture relating solely to the extent of the outside partner’s interest.
Hedging Activities
From time to time, we use derivative financial instruments to limit our exposure to changes in interest rates. We were not a party to any hedging agreement with respect to our floating rate debt as of September 30, 2005 or 2004. We have in the past used derivative financial instruments to manage, or hedge, interest rate risks related to our borrowings, from lines of credit to medium and long-term financings. We require that hedging derivative instruments are effective in reducing the interest rate risk exposure that they are designed to hedge. We do not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes and only enter into contracts with major financial institutions based on their credit rating and other factors.
If interest rate assumptions and other factors used to estimate a derivative’s fair value or methodologies used to determine hedge effectiveness were different, amounts reported in earnings and other comprehensive income and losses expected to be reclassified into earnings in the future could be affected.
37
As discussed in the beginning of this section under the heading, “Restatement Summary,” we have restated our financial statements and other financial information for the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003, and for each of the quarters therein, as well as the quarterly periods ended March 31, 2005 and June 30, 2005. The table below reflects the impact of that restatement of those historical financial statements.
The following discussion is based on our consolidated financial statements for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2005 and September 30, 2004 (as restated).
The tables below for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2005 and 2004 (as restated) show changes in revenue and expenses resulting from net operating income for properties that we owned for each period compared (we refer to this comparison as our “Same Property Portfolio” for the applicable period) and the changes in revenue and expenses attributable to all of our properties, which we refer to as our “Total Portfolio.” Amounts classified as discontinued operations in the accompanying consolidated financial statements related to properties that were sold prior to September 30, 2005 are excluded from the Same Property Portfolio and Total Portfolio information. In 2004, we completed the partial disposition of a property. Amounts related to the portion of this property disposed, consisting of $0.2 million and $0.6 million of rental revenue for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2004 (as restated), are included in the Total Portfolio as the sale of the portion of the property was not considered to be a discontinued operation, but those operations are excluded from the Same Property Portfolio.
38
Comparison of the nine-month period ended September 30, 2005 to the nine-month period ended September 30, 2004 (as restated).
The table below shows selected operating information for our Total Portfolio and the 163 properties acquired prior to January 1, 2004 that remained in the Total Portfolio through September 30, 2005, which constitute the Same Property Portfolio for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2005 and 2004 (as restated and in thousands):

* For a detailed discussion of net operating income, including the reasons management believes NOI is useful to investors, and a reconciliation of NOI to the most directly comparable GAAP measure, see pages 56-58.
The following discussion of our results of operations for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2005 and 2004 (as restated) relates to the Total Portfolio.
Rental Revenue. Rental revenue, including termination fee income, increased primarily as a result of:
· an increase of approximately $9.3 million due to eleven properties acquired after January 1, 2004, partially offset by a $0.4 million decrease related to a 2004 partial disposition; and
39
· on a Same Property Portfolio basis, an increase of $2.2 million, primarily as a result of an increase in minimum rent attributable to increased occupancy and leases and rollovers of existing tenants at higher rental rates.
The increase in rental revenue was partially offset on a Same Property Portfolio basis by an increase in the provision for doubtful accounts of $0.6 million due to increased reserves associated with higher outstanding accounts receivable balances and a decrease in termination fee income of $0.3 million.
Percentage Rent. Percentage rent decreased primarily as a result of:
· $0.2 million related to a partial disposition; and
· on a Same Property Portfolio basis, $0.2 million due to lower sales volume and higher sales breakpoints for leases with significant percentage rent provisions and $0.1 million due to renewed leases that no longer have percentage rent clauses.
Recoveries Revenue. Recoveries revenue increased primarily due to the following:
· an increase of $2.4 million due to eleven properties acquired after January 1, 2004; and
· on a Same Property Portfolio basis, an increase of $3.4 million, or 6.2%, primarily due to an increase in property operating recovery income of $3.1 million and real estate tax recovery income of $0.5 million partially offset by an increase in the provision for doubtful accounts of $0.2 million. Property operating recovery income increased as a result of a $1.3 million increase in property operating expenses and an increase in recovery rates due to higher occupancy.
Other Property Income. Other property income increased primarily as a result of an additional $1.0 million of tax incentive financing income at one of our shopping centers, an additional $0.3 million received in settlement of prior bankruptcies in excess of amounts previously written off, and an additional $0.2 million related to the release of an accrual established for environmental remediation at a property which is no longer considered necessary.
Property Operating Expenses. Property operating expenses increased due to the following:
· an increase of $1.6 million due to eleven properties acquired after January 1, 2004; and
· on a Same Property Portfolio basis, an increase of $1.3 million, or 3.8%, primarily due to $0.9 million increased snow removal costs, and $0.1 million increased utility costs, partially offset by $0.3 million decrease in insurance costs.
Real Estate Taxes. Real estate taxes increased primarily due to the following:
· an increase of $1.8 million due to eleven properties acquired after January 1, 2004, partially offset by
· a $0.8 million decrease in real estate taxes on a Same Property Portfolio basis primarily related to a decrease of $0.7 million related to the re-assessment of properties primarily located in Indiana in 2004 for calendar years 2002 through 2004, as well as $0.2 million of capitalized real estate taxes against certain re-development and tenant improvement projects, partially offset by an increase of $0.3 million current period real estate taxes in 2005 due to anticipated increases in assessments.
Interest, Other, and Joint Venture Fee Income. Interest, other, and joint venture fee income increased primarily due to increased fees from the Company’s unconsolidated joint ventures.
40
Gain on Sale of Marketable Securities. Gain on sale of marketable securities decreased due to the Company having sold fewer marketable securities in the nine-month period ended September 30, 2005.
Gain on Sale of Real Estate Investment. Gain on sale of real estate investment decreased as the result of the Company not having sold any real estate investments during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2005.
Equity in Income from Unconsolidated Joint Ventures. Equity in income from unconsolidated joint ventures increased due to the increased occupancy of a shopping center owned by a joint venture that is in the development phase and an interest acquired in a joint venture in April 2005.
Income from Discontinued Operations. Income from discontinued operations decreased as a result of the Company not having disposed of any properties during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2005, as compared to three properties disposed of during fiscal year 2004.
Depreciation and Amortization. Expenses attributable to depreciation and amortization increased due to depreciation attributable to new properties acquired and depreciation of new capital and tenant improvements implemented within the Same Property Portfolio.
Interest Expense. Interest expense increased $6.2 million primarily as a result of an increase in overall indebtedness of $204.5 million from September 30, 2004 to September 30, 2005. This increase was primarily due to indebtedness incurred in connection with the acquisition of properties. This increase was partially offset by lower interest rates. The weighted average interest rate at September 30, 2005 was 6.05% as compared with a weighted average interest rate at September 30, 2004 of 6.26%
General and Administrative Expenses. As discussed above under the heading, “Restatement Summary,” we restated our financial statements and other financial information for the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003, and for each of the quarters therein, as well as for the quarterly periods ended March 31, 2005 and June 30, 2005. This restatement adjusted our compensation expense, a component of our general and administrative expense. The following comparisons reflect this adjustment of our general and administrative expense in those prior periods.
Our general and administrative expenses, consisting primarily of salaries, bonuses, employee benefits, insurance and other corporate-level expenses, increased $7.1 million. This increase was primarily due to:
· an increase of $5.2 million in stock compensation costs. The increase in stock compensation expense is primarily due to a $3.5 million increase in the intrinsic value of certain vested stock options subject to a tax-offset provision in an employment agreement. The intrinsic value increased due to a greater increase in our stock price during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2005 as compared with nine-month period ended September 30. 2004. Other stock compensation expense increased $1.6 million as a result of the amortization of four annual grants of performance based restricted shares in the nine-month period ended September 30, 2005 as compared with the amortization of three annual grants of performance based restricted shares in the nine-month period ended September 30, 2004.
· an increase of $0.7 million in payroll costs due to an increase in the Company’s staffing levels associated with new business initiatives aimed at future growth and additional employees hired to ensure compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act;
· an increase of $0.5 million in office related costs primarily due to increased recruiting costs and higher office expenses due to a larger workforce;
· an increase of $0.3 million in advertising expenses due to increased promotional efforts at both the corporate and property level; and
· an increase of $0.3 million in board of director and other governance costs due to higher board member compensation and a greater number of Board and Board Committee meetings.
41
Income allocated to exchangeable limited partnerships units. Income allocated to exchangeable limited partnership units increased primarily as a result of income from additional properties acquired by Bradley OP partially offset by a higher allocation due to the redemption of exchangeable limited partnership units in 2004.
Income allocated to Series B and C Preferred Units. Income allocated to Series B and C Preferred Units decreased as a result of the Company redeeming all Series B and C Preferred Units of Bradley OP in the first and third quarters of 2004, respectively.
Comparison of the three-month period ended September 30, 2005 to the three-month period ended September 30, 2004 (as restated).
The table below shows selected operating information for our Total Portfolio and the 165 properties acquired prior to July 1, 2004 that remained in the Total Portfolio through September 30, 2005, which constitute the Same Property Portfolio for the three-month periods ended September 30, 2005 and 2004 (in thousands):

The following discussion of our results of operations for the three-month periods ended September 30, 2005 and 2004 relate to the Total Portfolio.
42
Rental Revenue. Rental revenue, including termination fee income, increased primarily as a result of:
· an increase of approximately $2.7 million due to nine properties acquired after July 1, 2004, partially offset by a $0.1 million decrease related to a 2004 partial disposition; and
· on a Same Property Portfolio basis, rental revenue increased by $0.6 million, or 0.9%, primarily as a result of a $0.9 million increase in minimum rent due to new leasing activity and rollovers at higher rental rates that commenced in 2004 and the nine-month period ended September 30, 2005.
The increase in rental revenue was partially offset on a Same Property Portfolio basis by an increase in the provision for doubtful accounts of $0.3 million due to increased reserves associated with higher outstanding accounts receivable balances.
Percentage Rent. Percentage rent decreased $0.2 million primarily due to the following:
· $0.1 million due to lower sales volume and higher sales breakpoints for leases with significant percentage rent provisions.
· $0.1 million due to renewed leases that no longer have percentage rent clauses.
Recoveries Revenue. Recoveries revenue increased primarily due to the following:
· an increase of $0.8 million due to nine properties acquired after July 1, 2004; and
· on a Same Property Portfolio basis, an increase of $0.3 million, or 1.8%, primarily as a result of an increase in property operating recovery income of $0.3 million as well as an increase in real estate tax recovery income of $0.1 million, partially offset by an increase in the provision for doubtful accounts of $0.1 million due to increased reserves associated with higher outstanding receivable balances. Property operating and tax recovery income increased as a result of an increase in recovery rates due to higher occupancy.
Other Property Income. Other property income increased $0.1 million related to the release of an accrual established for environmental remediation at a property which is no longer considered necessary.
Property Operating Expenses. Property operating expenses increased $0.2 million due to the following:
· an increase of $0.3 million due to nine properties acquired after July 1, 2004; and
· on a Same Property Portfolio basis, a decrease of $0.1 million primarily due to a decrease of $0.4 million in repairs and maintenance, partially offset by an increase of $0.1 million of ground rent expense and an increase of $0.1 million of utilities costs.
Real Estate Taxes. Real estate taxes increased $0.4 million due to the following:
· an increase of $0.7 million related to nine properties acquired after July 1, 2004, partially offset by
· a $0.3 million decrease in real estate taxes on a Same Property Portfolio basis primarily related to a decrease of $0.2 million related to the re-assessment of properties primarily located in Indiana in 2004 for calendar years 2002 through 2004, as well as $0.1 million of capitalized real estate taxes against certain re-development and tenant improvement projects.
43
Interest, Other, and Joint Venture Fee Income. Interest, other, and joint venture fee income decreased due to decreased fees from the Company’s unconsolidated joint ventures.
Gain on Sale of Marketable Securities. Gain on sale of marketable securities decreased due to the Company having sold fewer marketable securities in the three-month period ended September 30, 2005.
Gain on Sale of Real Estate Investment. Gain on sale of real estate investment decreased as the result of the Company not having sold any real estate investments during the three-month period ended September 30, 2005.
Equity in Income from Unconsolidated Joint Ventures. Equity in income from unconsolidated joint ventures increased due to the increased occupancy of a shopping center owned by a joint venture that is in the development phase and an interest acquired in a joint venture in April 2005.
Income from Discontinued Operations. Income from discontinued operations decreased as a result of the Company not having disposed of any properties during the three-month period ended September 30, 2005, as compared to three properties disposed of during fiscal year 2004.
Depreciation and Amortization. Expenses attributable to depreciation and amortization rose due to depreciation attributable to new properties acquired and depreciation of new capital and tenant improvements implemented within the Same Property Portfolio.
Interest Expense. Interest expense increased $1.5 million primarily as a result of an increase in overall indebtedness of $204.5 million from September 30, 2004 to September 30, 2005. This increase was primarily due to indebtedness incurred in connection with the acquisition of properties. This increase was partially offset by lower interest rates. The weighted average interest rate at September 30, 2005 was 6.05% as compared with a weighted average interest rate at September 30, 2004 of 6.26%
General and Administrative Expenses. As discussed in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations under the heading, “Restatement Summary,” we restated our financial statements and other financial information for the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003, and for each of the quarters therein, as well as for the quarterly periods ended March 31, 2005 and June 30, 2005. This restatement adjusted our compensation expense, a component of our general and administrative expense. The following comparisons reflect this adjustment of our general and administrative expense in those prior periods.
Our general and administrative expenses, consisting primarily of salaries, bonuses, employee benefits, insurance and other corporate-level expenses, decreased $1.8 million. This decrease was primarily due to:
· a decrease of $2.3 million related to stock compensation costs. The decrease in stock compensation expense is primarily due to a $2.6 million decrease in the intrinsic value of certain vested stock options subject to a tax-offset provision in an employment agreement. The intrinsic value decreased due to a greater decrease in the Company’s stock price during the three-month period ended September 30, 2005 as compared with the three-month period ended September 30, 2004. This decrease was partially offset by an increase in other stock compensation expense of $0.3 million associated with the amortization of four annual grants of performance based restricted shares in the three-month period ended September 30, 2005 as compared with the amortization of three annual grants of performance based restricted shares in the three-month period ended September 30, 2004.
· a decrease of $0.1 million related to a decrease in professional fees
This decrease was partially offset by an increase in payroll costs of $0.5 million due to an increase in the Company’s staffing levels associated with new business initiatives aimed at future growth and
44
additional employees hired to ensure compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, and an increase in office expenses of $0.2 million due to higher office costs associated with a larger workforce.
Income allocated to exchangeable limited partnerships units. Income allocated to exchangeable limited partnership units increased primarily as a result of a higher allocation due to the redemption of exchangeable limited partnership units partially offset by an increase in income from additional properties acquired by Bradley OP.
Income allocated to Series C Preferred Units. Income allocated to Series C Preferred Units decreased as a result of the Company redeeming all Series C Preferred Units of Bradley OP in the third quarter of 2004.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Short-Term Liquidity Requirements
At September 30, 2005, we had $4.2 million in available cash and cash equivalents. As a REIT, we are required to distribute at least 90% of our taxable income to our stockholders on an annual basis. Therefore, as a general matter, it is unlikely that we will have any substantial cash balances that could be used to meet our liquidity needs. Instead, these needs must be met from cash generated from operations and external sources of capital.
At September 30, 2005, we had an aggregate of $1.4 billion of indebtedness. This indebtedness had a weighted average interest rate of 6.05% with an average maturity of 4.5 years. As of September 30, 2005, our market capitalization was $3.1 billion, resulting in a debt-to-total market capitalization ratio of approximately 46.2%.
Our short-term liquidity requirements consist primarily of funds necessary to pay for operating expenses and other expenditures directly associated with our properties, including:
· Recurring maintenance capital expenditures necessary to properly maintain our properties;
· Interest expense and scheduled principal payments on outstanding indebtedness;
· Capital expenditures incurred to facilitate the leasing of space at our properties, including tenant improvements and leasing commissions; and
· Future distributions to our stockholders.
We incur maintenance capital expenditures at our properties, including parking lot improvements, roof repairs and replacements and other non-revenue enhancing capital expenditures. Maintenance capital expenditures were approximately $7.1 million, or $0.25 per square foot, for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2005.
We believe that we qualify, and we intend to continue to qualify, as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code. As a REIT, we are allowed to reduce taxable income by all or a portion of our distributions paid to stockholders. We believe that our existing working capital and cash provided by operations will be sufficient to allow us to pay distributions necessary to enable us to continue to qualify as a REIT. However, under some circumstances, we may be required to pay distributions in excess of cash available for those distributions in order to meet these distribution requirements or to maintain our current distribution rate, and we may need to borrow funds to pay distributions in the future.
Historically, we have satisfied our short-term liquidity requirements through our existing working capital and cash provided by our operations as well as with borrowings under the Company’s line of credit. In addition, we believe that our existing working capital and cash provided by operations should be sufficient to meet our short-term liquidity requirements. Cash flows provided by operating activities
45
increased to $94.5 million for the nine-months ended September 30, 2005 from $81.7 million for the nine-months ended September 30, 2004. The increase in cash flows from operations is primarily attributable to changes in operating assets and liabilities. As of September 30, 2005 we had an outstanding balance on our $400 million line of credit of $359.0 million, leaving us with $41 million of additional borrowing capacity under the line of credit. At our request, subject to the agent’s consent, our line of credit may be increased to $500 million.
There are a number of factors that could adversely affect our cash flow. An economic downturn in one or more of our markets may impede the ability of our tenants to make lease payments and may impact our ability to renew leases or re-lease space as leases expire. In addition, an economic downturn or recession could also lead to an increase in tenant bankruptcies, increases in our overall vacancy rates or declines in rents we can charge to re-lease properties upon expiration of current leases. In all of these cases, our cash flow and operating results would be adversely affected.
Long-Term Liquidity Requirements
Our long-term liquidity requirements consist primarily of funds necessary to pay for scheduled debt maturities, renovations, redevelopment, expansions and other non-recurring capital expenditures that are required periodically to our properties, and the costs associated with acquisitions of properties and third party developer joint venture opportunities that we pursue.
Historically, we have satisfied our long-term liquidity requirements through various sources of capital, including our existing working capital, cash provided by operations, our line of credit, bridge financing, the issuance of additional debt and equity securities and long-term property mortgage indebtedness. We believe that these sources of capital will continue to be available to us in the future to fund our long-term liquidity requirements. In addition, we also intend to pursue additional capital for acquisitions through strategic joint ventures with institutional investors. However, there are certain factors, discussed below, that may have a material adverse effect on our access to these capital resources.
Our ability to incur additional debt is dependent upon a number of factors, including our degree of leverage, the value of our unencumbered assets, our credit rating and borrowing restrictions imposed on us by existing lenders. Currently, we have a credit rating from three major rating agencies—Standard & Poor’s, which has given us a rating of BBB-, Moody’s Investor Service, which has given us a rating of Baa3, and Fitch Ratings, which has given us a rating of BBB-. All three of these rating agencies have currently stated our company’s outlook is stable. A downgrade in outlook or rating by a rating agency can occur at any time if the agency perceives adverse change in our financial condition, results of operations or ability to service our debt.
Based on our internal valuation of our properties, the estimated value of our properties exceeds the outstanding amount of mortgage debt encumbering those properties as of September 30, 2005. Therefore, at this time, we believe that we could obtain additional funds, either in the form of additional unsecured borrowings or mortgage debt, without violating the financial covenants contained in our line of credit or unsecured public notes.
Our ability to raise funds through the issuance of equity securities is dependent upon, among other things, general market conditions for REITs and the market’s perceptions regarding the Company and its prospects. We will continue to analyze which source of capital is most advantageous to us at any particular point in time, but raising funds through the equity markets may not be consistently available to us on terms that are attractive or at all.

Environmental Matters
We currently have approximately eighteen properties in our portfolio that are undergoing, or have been identified as requiring, some form of remediation (including monitoring for compliance) to clean up contamination. In some cases, contamination has migrated into the groundwater beneath our properties from adjacent properties, such as service stations. In other cases, contamination has resulted from on-site uses by current or former owners or tenants, such as gas stations or dry cleaners, which have released pollutants such as gasoline or dry-cleaning solvents into soil and/or groundwater. Based on our previous experience with similar contaminations with respect to our properties, we believe the cost of remediation for contamination will range from approximately $10,000 to $300,000 per property. Any failure to properly remediate the contamination at our properties may result in liability to federal, state or local governments for damages to natural resources or liability to third parties for property damage or personal injury and may adversely affect our ability to operate, lease or sell the contaminated property.
Of the approximately eighteen properties cited above, half of those properties were contributed to us by Net Realty Holding Trust, our largest stockholder, upon our formation in July 1999. These contributed properties (together with approximately ten other contributed properties for which no remediation is currently taking place) are the subject of an indemnity arrangement under which Net Realty Holding Trust has agreed to indemnify us against environmental liabilities up to $50 million in the aggregate. Since our formation, we have been reimbursed by Net Realty Holding Trust for approximately $2.0 million of environmental costs pursuant to this indemnity. Although we do not believe that the aggregate indemnity amount will be needed, we believe that Net Realty Holding Trust has the ability to perform under its indemnity up to the aggregate amount. In addition, each of the properties for which we are actively pursuing remediation to clean up contamination is covered by this indemnity.
With respect to the remaining properties cited above not covered by the Net Realty Holding Trust indemnity, no clean-up activities are currently taking place and our requisite on-going responsibilities are to monitor those properties for compliance and to determine if any remediation or other action may be required in the future. We believe that the costs of monitoring these properties are not material, individually or in the aggregate, to our financial condition and we have established reserves for such costs.

(2) The aggregate repayment amount for mortgage loans payable of $621,825 does not reflect the unamortized mortgage loan premiums totaling $12,541 related to the assumption of sixteen mortgage loans with above-market contractual interest rates.
(3) Property is encumbered by two mortgage loans maturing in July 2007.
(4) The aggregate repayment amount of $451,490 does not reflect the unamortized original discounts of $1,576 related to the April and October 2004 bond issuances.
As of September 30, 2005, the indebtedness described in the table above requires principal amortization and payments of $2.9 million for the remainder of 2005. We currently expect to refinance these and other future balloon payments through borrowings under our line of credit. We may also refinance this debt through unsecured private or public debt offerings, through additional debt financings secured by individual properties or groups of properties or through additional equity offerings.
As of September 30, 2005, in addition to the repayment obligations under the indebtedness described above, we have future contractual payment obligations relating to construction contracts, ground leases, and leases for the rental of office space as follows (in thousands):

(1) Represents the period from October 1, 2005 through December 31, 2005
In addition to the contractual payment obligations included above, we have various existing utility and service contracts with vendors related to our property management. We enter into these contracts in the ordinary course of business, which vary based on usage and may extend beyond one year. These contracts are generally for one year or less and include terms that provide for termination with insignificant or no cancellation penalties.
The repayment obligations reflected in the above table do not reflect interest payments on debt. In addition, we have obligations under a retirement benefit plan which are not included in the above table. These obligations related to the retirement benefit plan are more fully described in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2004. Funding requirements for retirement benefits after 2005 cannot be estimated due to the significant variability in the assumptions required to project the timing of future cash payments.
The future contractual payment obligations in the above table do not reflect the matters described below under “Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements.”

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not believe that we currently have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have, or are reasonably likely to have, a material current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.
However, in a few cases, we have made commitments to provide funds to our existing joint ventures (discussed below) under certain circumstances. The commitments associated with these joint ventures are not reflected as liabilities on our consolidated financial statements. These existing joint ventures are not variable interest entities nor do we have control of these partnerships and, therefore, we account for them using the equity method of accounting.
In May 2004, the Company entered into a joint venture agreement with a third party for the development and construction of Lakes Crossing Shopping Center in Muskegon, Michigan. As of September 30, 2005, the Company does not consolidate the operations of the Lakes Crossing joint venture in its financial statements. Under the terms of the Lakes Crossing joint venture, we have a 50% interest in the venture and we have agreed to contribute any capital that might be required by the joint venture. Under the joint venture agreement, at any time subsequent to the second anniversary of the completion of Lakes Crossing, which is estimated to occur in the spring of 2006, the Company may be required to purchase the third party’s joint venture interest. The purchase price for this interest would be at the agreed-upon fair market value.
We have also fully guaranteed the repayment of a $22 million construction loan obtained by the Lakes Crossing joint venture from Key Bank, National Association, which is an off-balance sheet arrangement. The Key Bank loan matures in November 2006 (subject to a one-year extension). As of September 30, 2005, $16.6 million is outstanding under the construction loan. Such amount is recorded on the books and records of the joint venture. In the event we are obligated to repay all or a portion of the construction loan pursuant to the guarantee, we (i) may remove the manager of the joint venture for cause and terminate all agreements with the manager, (ii) would receive a promissory note from the joint venture for the amount paid by us together with a first priority mortgage on the shopping center, and (iii) may prohibit all distributions from the joint venture or payment of fees by the joint venture until the principal and accrued interest on the loan is repaid. The estimated fair value of the guarantee as of September 30, 2005 is not material to our financial position. Accordingly, no liability or additional investment has been recorded related to the fair value of the guarantee.
In April 2005, we formed a joint venture with a fund managed by Intercontinental Real Estate Corporation for the specific purpose of acquiring Skillman Abrams Shopping Center, a 133,000 square foot shopping center in Dallas, Texas. Under the terms of the Skillman Abrams joint venture, we have a 25% interest in the venture and we have agreed to contribute our pro rata share of any capital that might be required by the joint venture. The joint venture had a contractual obligation related to a mortgage loan outstanding of approximately $15.3 million as of September 30, 2005. We have agreed to indemnify the mortgage lender for bad acts and environmental liabilities with respect to the Skillman Abrams loan. As of September 30, 2005, the book value of our investment in the joint venture was approximately $1.1 million.
We have entered into additional joint venture arrangements with third party developers for the development of sites under contract in which the underlying projects are still in the approval and entitlement process. In some cases, we have paid deposits in connection with our joint venture entering into purchase and sale agreements with respect to such sites. These deposits are either fully or partially refundable by the seller or by our joint venture partner.
50
Line of Credit
On March 29, 2005, we refinanced our prior line of credit, entering into a new three-year $400 million unsecured line of credit with a group of lenders and Wachovia Bank, National Association, as agent, expiring March 28, 2008, subject to a one-year extension. At our request, subject to the agent’s consent, this new line of credit may be increased to $500 million. Our ability to borrow under this new line of credit is subject to our ongoing compliance with a number of financial and other covenants. This new line of credit, except under some circumstances, limits our ability to make distributions in excess of 90% of our annual funds from operations. In addition, this new line of credit bears interest at either the lender’s base rate or a floating rate based on a spread over LIBOR ranging from 62.5 basis points to 115 basis points, depending upon our debt rating. This new credit facility also includes a competitive bid option that allows the Company to hold auctions amongst the participating lenders in the facility for up to fifty percent of the facility amount. The variable rate in effect at September 30, 2005 was 4.4%. This new line of credit also has a facility fee based on the amount committed ranging from 15 to 25 basis points, depending upon our debt rating, and requires quarterly payments.
We are the borrower under this new line of credit and Bradley OP, Heritage OP and certain of our other subsidiaries have guaranteed this line of credit. This new line of credit will be used principally to fund growth opportunities and for working capital purposes. As of September 30, 2005, $35.0 million was outstanding under this new line of credit.
As discussed in Note 10 to the condensed consolidated financial statements of this report, on October 20, 2005, we obtained from the financial institutions party to the line of credit a waiver of any default or potential default as a result of the restatement of our historical financial statements. As a result, we believe that we are in compliance with all of the financial covenants under this new line of credit as of the date of this report. However, if our properties do not perform as expected, or if unexpected events occur that require us to borrow additional funds, compliance with these covenants may become difficult and may restrict our ability to pursue some of our business initiatives. In addition, these financial covenants may restrict our ability to pursue particular acquisition transactions, including for example, acquiring a portfolio of properties that is highly leveraged. These constraints on acquisitions could significantly impede our growth. Furthermore, because the interest rate on the line of credit is variable and based upon LIBOR rates, as LIBOR rates increase so will the interest rate on the line of credit.
Debt Offerings
The Company has outstanding two series of unsecured notes. These notes were issued pursuant to the terms of two separate but substantially identical indentures the Company entered into with LaSalle Bank National Association, as trustee. These indentures contain various covenants, including covenants that restrict the amount of indebtedness that may be incurred by us and our subsidiaries. Specifically, for as long as the debt securities issued under these indentures are outstanding:
· The Company is not permitted to incur any additional indebtedness if the aggregate principal amount of all indebtedness of the Company and its subsidiaries would be greater than 60% of the total assets, as defined, of the Company and its subsidiaries.
· The Company is not permitted to incur any additional indebtedness if the ratio of the Company’s consolidated income available for debt service to the annual debt service charge for the four consecutive fiscal quarters most recently ended prior to the date the additional indebtedness is to be incurred would be less than 1.5:1 on a pro forma basis.
51
· The Company is not permitted to incur any additional indebtedness if, after giving effect to such additional indebtedness, the total secured indebtedness of the Company and its subsidiaries is greater than 40% of the total assets, as defined, of the Company and its subsidiaries.
· The Company and its subsidiaries may not at any time own total unencumbered assets equal to less than 150% of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of unsecured indebtedness of the Company and its subsidiaries.
Notes due 2009. On October 15, 2004, the Company completed the issuance and sale of $150 million principal amount of unsecured 4.50% notes due 2009 (the “2009 Notes”). The 2009 Notes bear interest at a rate of 4.50% and mature on October 15, 2009. The 2009 Notes may be redeemed at any time at our option, in whole or in part, at a redemption price equal to the sum of (1) the principal amount of the notes being redeemed plus accrued interest on the notes to the redemption date and (2) a make-whole amount, if any, with respect to the notes that is designed to provide yield maintenance protection to the holders of these notes.
Notes due 2014. On April 1, 2004, the Company completed the issuance and sale of $200 million principal amount of unsecured 5.125% notes due 2014 (the “2014 Notes”). The 2014 Notes bear interest at a rate of 5.125% and mature on April 15, 2014. The 2014 Notes may be redeemed at any time at our option, in whole or in part, at a redemption price equal to the sum of (1) the principal amount of the notes being redeemed plus accrued interest on the notes to the redemption date and (2) a make-whole amount, if any, with respect to the notes that is designed to provide yield maintenance protection to the holders of these notes.
Our two series of outstanding unsecured notes have been guaranteed by our two operating partnerships, Heritage OP and Bradley OP.
We believe we are in compliance with all applicable covenants under these indentures as of September 30, 2005.
Prior to our acquisition of Bradley Real Estate, Inc. (“Bradley”), Bradley OP completed the sale of three series of senior, unsecured debt securities. We repaid in full one of these series of Bradley OP debt securities upon maturity in November 2004. These debt securities were issued pursuant to the terms of an indenture and two supplemental indentures entered into by Bradley OP with LaSalle Bank National Association, as trustee, beginning in 1997. The indenture and two supplemental indentures contain various covenants, including covenants which restrict the amount of indebtedness that may be incurred by Bradley OP and those of our subsidiaries which are owned directly or indirectly by Bradley OP. Specifically, for as long as these debt securities are outstanding:
· Bradley OP is not permitted to incur any additional indebtedness if the aggregate principal amount of all indebtedness of Bradley OP and its subsidiaries would be greater than 60% of the total assets of Bradley OP and its subsidiaries.
· Bradley OP is not permitted to incur any additional indebtedness if the ratio of Bradley OP’s consolidated income available for debt service to the annual debt service charge for the four consecutive fiscal quarters most recently ended prior to the date the additional indebtedness is to be incurred would be less than 1.5:1 on a pro forma basis.
· Bradley OP is not permitted to incur any additional indebtedness if, after giving effect to any additional indebtedness, the total secured indebtedness of Bradley OP and its subsidiaries is greater than 40% of the total assets, as defined, of Bradley OP and its subsidiaries.
52
· Bradley OP and its subsidiaries may not at any time own total unencumbered assets equal to less than 150% of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of unsecured indebtedness of Bradley OP and its subsidiaries.
For purposes of these covenants, any indebtedness incurred by Heritage, Heritage OP or any of the Company’s subsidiaries that are owned directly or indirectly by Heritage OP is not included as indebtedness of Bradley OP.
Notes due 2006. In March 2000, Bradley OP completed the offering of $75 million aggregate principal amount of its 8.875% Notes due 2006 (the “2006 Notes”). The 2006 Notes bear interest at 8.875% per year and mature on March 15, 2006. The 2006 Notes may be redeemed at any time at the option of Bradley OP, in whole or in part, at a redemption price equal to the sum of (1) the principal amount of the 2006 Notes being redeemed plus accrued interest on the 2006 Notes to the redemption date and (2) a make-whole amount, if any, with respect to the 2006 Notes that is designed to provide yield maintenance protection to the holders of these notes. In connection with the Bradley acquisition, we repurchased approximately $73.5 million of the 2006 Notes at a purchase price equal to the principal and accrued interest on the 2006 Notes as of the date of purchase, so that approximately $1.5 million of the 2006 Notes were outstanding as of September 30, 2005.
Notes due 2008. In January 1998, Bradley OP completed the offering of $100 million aggregate principal amount of its 7.2% Notes due 2008 (the “2008 Notes”). The 2008 Notes bear interest at 7.2% per year and mature on January 15, 2008. The 2008 Notes may be redeemed at any time at the option of Bradley OP, in whole or in part, at a redemption price equal to the sum of (1) the principal amount of the 2008 Notes being redeemed plus accrued interest on the 2008 Notes to the redemption date and (2) a make-whole amount, if any, with respect to the 2008 Notes that is designed to provide yield maintenance protection to the holders of these notes.
We believe Bradley OP is in compliance with all applicable covenants under these indentures as of September 30, 2005.
Equity Offerings
In April 2002, we completed our initial public offering and sold 14,080,556 shares of our common stock at a price of $25.00 per share resulting in net proceeds to us of $323 million. We used the net proceeds of the IPO to repay a portion of our outstanding indebtedness. In connection with our IPO, all shares of our Series A Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock then outstanding converted automatically into shares of our common stock on a one for one basis.
In December 2003, we completed a secondary public offering of our common stock and sold a total of 3,932,736 shares at a net price of $28.27 per share, resulting in net proceeds to us of $111 million. Net Realty Holding Trust, our largest stockholder, exercised its contractual preemptive right and purchased 1,563,558, or approximately 40% of the shares we sold in the offering, on the same terms as third parties purchased shares. We used the net proceeds of this offering to repay a portion of our outstanding indebtedness.
We calculate Funds from Operations in accordance with the best practices described in the April 2001 National Policy Bulletin of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, referred to as NAREIT, and NAREIT’s 1995 White Paper on Funds from Operations, as supplemented in November 1999. The White Paper defines Funds From Operations as net income (loss) (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains (or losses) from extraordinary items and sales of property, plus real estate related depreciation and amortization and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships
53
and joint ventures. Funds from Operations should not be considered as an alternative to net income (determined in accordance with GAAP) as an indicator of our financial performance or to cash flow from operating activities (determined in accordance with GAAP) as a measure of our liquidity, nor is it indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs, including our ability to make distributions. We believe that Funds from Operations is helpful to investors as a measure of our performance as an equity REIT because, along with cash flows from operating activities, financing activities and investing activities, it provides investors with an understanding of our ability to incur and service debt and make capital expenditures. Our computation of Funds from Operations may, however, differ from the methodology for calculating Funds from Operations utilized by other equity REITs and, therefore, may not be comparable to such other REITs.
The table set forth below reconciles our Funds from Operations to our net income. As described in Note 2 to the financial statements contained in this report, we restated our financial statements and other financial information for the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003, and for each of the quarters therein, as well as for the quarterly periods ended March 31, 2005 and June 30, 2005. This restatement adjusted our net income. The following table reflects the impact of that restatement on those historical financial statements (in thousands).

The TJX Companies
In July 1999, Bernard Cammarata became a member of our board of directors. Until September 2005, Mr. Cammarata was non-executive Chairman of the Board of TJX Companies, Inc., our largest tenant. In September 2005, Mr. Cammarata became President and Chief Executive Officer of TJX, positions he previously held. In October 2005, TJX appointed a new President, with Mr. Cammarata continuing to serve as Chief Executive Officer. Annualized base rent from the TJX Companies represents approximately 5.6% of our total annualized base rent for all leases in which tenants were in occupancy at September 30, 2005. TJX pays us rent in accordance with 52 leases at our properties.
Ahold USA
In July 1999, William M. Vaughn, III became a member of our board of directors. Mr. Vaughn is Senior Vice President, Labor Relations of Ahold USA, Inc., the parent company of Giant Foods and Stop & Shop. Mr. Vaughn is also a member of the Board of Trustees of our largest stockholder, NETT. Annualized base rent from Ahold USA and its subsidiary companies represents approximately 0.6% of our total annualized base rent for all leases in which tenants were in occupancy at September 30, 2005. Ahold USA and its subsidiary companies pay us rent in accordance with 3 leases at our properties.
131 Dartmouth Street Joint Venture and Lease
In November 1999, we entered into a joint venture with an affiliate of NETT for the acquisition and development of a 365,000 square foot commercial office building at 131 Dartmouth Street, Boston, Massachusetts. This joint venture is owned 94% by the affiliate of NETT and 6% by us. We were issued this interest as part of a management arrangement with the joint venture pursuant to which we manage the building. We have no ongoing capital contribution requirements with respect to this office building, which was completed in 2003. We account for our interest in this joint venture using the cost method and we have not expended any amounts on the office building through September 30, 2005.
In February 2004, we entered into an eleven-year lease with our joint venture with NETT for approximately 31,000 square feet of space at 131 Dartmouth Street and we moved our corporate headquarters to this space during the first quarter of 2004. Under the terms of this lease, which were negotiated on an arms-length basis, we began paying rent to the joint venture in February 2005. We pay $1.1 million per year in minimum rent through 2009 and $1.2 million per year from 2010 through 2014.
Legal and Other Claims
We are subject to legal and other claims incurred in the normal course of business. Based on our review and consultation with counsel of those matters known to exist, including those matters described on page 61, we do not believe that the ultimate outcome of these claims would materially affect our financial position or results of operations.
In addition to our unsecured line of credit and unsecured debt securities we and Bradley OP have issued, we have fully guaranteed the repayment of a $22 million construction loan obtained by our Lakes Crossing joint venture from Key Bank, National Association. The Key Bank loan matures in November 2006 (subject to a one-year extension).
55
Non-Recourse Loan Guarantees
In connection with the Bradley acquisition, we entered into a special securitized facility with Prudential Mortgage Capital Corporation (“PMCC”) pursuant to which $244 million of collateralized mortgage-backed securities were issued by a trust created by PMCC. The trust consists of a single mortgage loan due from a subsidiary we created, Heritage SPE LLC, to which we contributed 29 of our properties. This loan is secured by all 29 properties we contributed to the borrower.
In connection with the securitized financing with PMCC, we entered into several indemnification and guaranty agreements with PMCC under the terms of which we agreed to indemnify PMCC for various bad acts of Heritage SPE LLC and with respect to specified environmental liabilities with respect to the properties contributed by us to Heritage SPE LLC.
We also have agreed to indemnify other mortgage lenders for bad acts and environmental liabilities in connection with other mortgage loans that we have assumed.
Inflation has had a minimal impact on the operating performance of our properties. However, many of our leases contain provisions designed to mitigate the adverse impact of inflation. These provisions include clauses enabling us to receive payment of additional rent calculated as a percentage of tenants’ gross sales above pre-determined thresholds, which generally increase as prices rise, and/or escalation clauses, which generally increase rental rates during the terms of the leases. These escalation clauses often are at fixed rent increases or indexed escalations (based on the consumer price index or other measures). Many of our leases are also for terms of less than ten years, which permits us to seek to increase rents to market rates upon renewal. In addition, most of our leases require the tenant to pay an allocable share of operating expenses, including common area maintenance costs, real estate taxes and insurance. We believe this reduces our exposure to increases in costs and operating expenses resulting from inflation.
In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123R, Share-Based Compensation (“SFAS No. 123R”). SFAS No. 123R supersedes APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees (“APB No. 25”), and amends SFAS No. 95, Statement of Cash Flows. SFAS No. 123R requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recorded as an expense based on their fair values. The grant-date fair value of employee share options and similar instruments will be estimated using an option-pricing model adjusted for any unique characteristics of a particular instrument. If an equity award is modified after the grant date, incremental compensation cost will be recognized in an amount equal to the excess of the fair value of the modified award over the fair value of the original award immediately before the modification. Currently, we account for share-based compensation in accordance with APB No. 25 and related Interpretations. We are required to account for share-based compensation to employees in accordance with SFAS No. 123R on a modified prospective basis beginning January 1, 2006. Under the modified prospective basis, compensation cost is recognized beginning with the effective date (a) based on the requirements of SFAS No. 123R for all share-based payments granted after the effective date and (b) based on the requirements of SFAS No. 123 for all awards granted to employees prior to the effective date of SFAS No. 123R that remain unvested on the effective date. We do not expect the adoption of SFAS No. 123R to have a material impact on our results of operations, financial position, or liquidity.
56
Net operating income, or “NOI,” is a non-GAAP financial measure equal to net income available to common shareholders (the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure), plus income allocated to minority interests in Bradley OP, general and administrative expense, depreciation and amortization, and interest expense, less income from discontinued operations, and interest and other income.
We use NOI internally, and believe NOI provides useful information to investors, as a performance measure in evaluating the operating performance of our real estate assets. This is because NOI reflects only those income and expense items that are incurred at the property level and excludes certain components from net income in order to provide results that are more closely related to a property’s results of operations. Our presentation of NOI may not be comparable to NOI reported by other REITs that define NOI differently. We believe that in order to obtain a clear understanding of our operating results, NOI should be examined in conjunction with net income as presented in our consolidated financial statements. NOI should not be considered as an alternative to net income as an indication of our performance or to cash flows as a measure of liquidity or ability to make distributions.
The following sets forth a reconciliation of NOI to net income available to common shareholders. As described in Note 2 to the financial statements contained in this report, we restated our financial statements and other financial information for the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003, and for each of the quarters therein, as well as for the quarterly periods ended March 31, 2005 and June 30, 2005.

ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Market risk is the exposure to loss resulting from adverse changes in market prices, interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices and equity prices. The primary market risk to which we are exposed is interest rate risk, which is sensitive to many factors, including governmental monetary and tax policies, domestic and international economic and political considerations and other factors that are beyond our control. Our future income, cash flows and fair values relevant to financial instruments are dependent upon prevalent market interest rates.

If market rates of interest on our variable rate debt outstanding at September 30, 2005 increase by 10%, or 45 basis points, we would expect the interest expense on our existing variable rate debt would decrease future earnings and cash flows by $1.7 million annually.
We were not a party to any hedging agreements with respect to our floating rate debt as of September 30, 2005. We have, in the past, used derivative financial instruments to manage, or hedge, interest rate risks related to our borrowings, from lines of credit to medium-and long-term financings. We require that hedging derivative instruments be effective in reducing the interest rate risk exposure that they are designed to hedge. We do not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes and only enter into contracts with major financial institutions based on their credit rating and other factors. We do not believe that the interest rate risk represented by our floating rate debt is material as of September 30, 2005 in relation to total assets and our total market capitalization.
ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
On October 17, 2005, we determined that our previously issued financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003, and for each of the quarters therein, and our unaudited quarterly financial statements for the periods ended March 31, 2005 and June 30, 2005, needed to be restated to correct an error discovered by our management. The error pertains to the unrecorded effects of certain previously granted stock options subject to a tax-offset provision included in the employment agreement of Thomas C. Prendergast, our Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer. As a result of the error, we have restated our historical financial statements to record a liability and to recognize compensation expense related to the effects of the tax-offset provision and to reflect variable accounting for the stock options subject to the tax-offset provision. See Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for a summary of the effects of the restatement on our previously issued consolidated financial statements.
(b) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Previously, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2004, March 31, 2005 and June 30, 2005. Based on that evaluation, our management initially concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective in reaching a reasonable level of assurance that information required to be included in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act as of such time was recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time period specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules.
In connection with the restatement described above, under the direction of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, our management reevaluated our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2004, March 31, 2005 and June 30, 2005, and evaluated our controls and procedures as of September 30, 2005, using the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations (“COSO”) of the Treadway Commission on Internal Control—Integrated Framework. During the course of those evaluations, our management concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of December 31, 2004, March 31, 2005, June 30, 2005 and September 30, 2005 due to a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting. This material weakness related to our internal controls over financial reporting with respect to accounting for significant compensation arrangements.
A material weakness in internal control over financial reporting is a control deficiency (within the meaning of PCAOB Auditing Standard No. 2), or combination of control deficiencies, that results in there being more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial
59
statements will not be prevented or detected. PCAOB Auditing Standard No. 2 identifies a number of circumstances (including the restatement of previously issued financial statements to reflect the correction of a misstatement) that, because of their likely significant negative effect on internal control over financial reporting, are to be regarded as strong indicators that a material weakness exists.
(c) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
To remediate the material weakness described above, we have enhanced our review procedures over the accounting for significant compensation arrangements, such as executive employment and severance agreements and stock-based compensation plans. These enhanced review procedures include the formal review and written determination by our internal accounting staff prior to adoption and implementation of the accounting for all significant compensation arrangements. As of the date of this filing, we have designed controls over the review of significant compensation arrangements to ensure that the accounting and reporting of such arrangements are in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and in a manner that will remediate the material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting.
Other than the remedial actions describe above, there was no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
60
On October 31, 2001, a complaint was filed against us in the Superior Court of Suffolk County of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts by Weston Associates and its president, Paul Donahue, alleging that we owe Mr. Donahue and his firm a fee in connection with services he claims he performed on our behalf in connection with our acquisition of Bradley. On September 18, 2000, we acquired Bradley, a publicly traded REIT based in Illinois with nearly 100 shopping center properties located primarily in the Midwest, at an aggregate cost of approximately $1.2 billion. Through his personal relationships with the parties involved, at our request, Mr. Donahue introduced us to Bradley and its senior management team. Mr. Donahue alleges, however, that he played an instrumental role in the negotiation and completion of our acquisition of Bradley beyond merely introducing the parties. For these alleged efforts, Mr. Donahue demands that he receive a fee equal to 2% of the aggregate consideration we paid to acquire Bradley, or a fee of approximately $24 million. In addition, Mr. Donahue also seeks treble damages based on alleged unfair or deceptive business practices under Massachusetts’s law.
On November 29, 2002, the court granted our motion to dismiss Mr. Donahue’s claims. Mr. Donahue subsequently filed an appeal of the court’s decision and on March 4, 2004, an oral argument was heard with respect to Mr. Donahue’s appeal. On July 14, 2004, the Massachusetts Appellate Court reversed the lower court’s decision dismissing Mr. Donahue’s claims. The Appellate Court’s decision reverts the case back to the Superior Court for discovery and additional proceedings. It is not possible at this time to predict the outcome of this litigation and we intend to vigorously defend against these claims.
Except as set forth above, we are not involved in any material litigation nor, to our knowledge, is any material litigation threatened against us, other than routine litigation arising in the ordinary course of business, which is generally expected to be covered by insurance. In the opinion of our management, based upon currently available information, this litigation is not expected to have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.
