NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

(1) ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Health Care Property Investors, Inc. is a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) that, together with its consolidated subsidiaries and joint ventures (collectively, “HCP” or the “Company”), invests directly, or through joint ventures and mortgage loans, in health care related properties located throughout the United States. As of March 31, 2004, the Company has investments in 537 properties located in 43 states, excluding assets which are held for sale. These properties include 30 hospitals, 173 long-term care facilities, 122 assisted and retirement living facilities, 188 medical office buildings (MOBs) and 24 other health care facilities. The Company’s total investment in these properties, which represents the historical cost of real estate and the net book value of unconsolidated joint ventures and mortgage loans, was $3.3 billion at March 31, 2004.

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Health Care Property Investors, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries and joint ventures. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The interim financial information reflects all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of financial condition and results of operations for the periods presented. These unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003 (the “2003 Annual Report”).

Certain information and disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Operating results for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any subsequent quarter or the full year. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

Management is required to make estimates and assumptions in the preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. The Company’s 2003 Annual Report includes a summary of significant accounting policies and estimates. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

Principles of Consolidation

During 2003, the Company adopted Interpretation No. 46, “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, an Interpretation of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51” (FIN 46), for variable interest entities created after January 31, 2003. On January 1, 2004 the Company adopted FIN 46 for variable interest entities created before February 1, 2003. Accordingly, the Company presently consolidates all variable interest entities in which it absorbs a majority of the entity’s expected losses, receives a majority of the entity’s expected residual returns, or both, as a result of ownership, contractual or other financial interests in the entity. For entities that do not qualify as variable interest entities, the Company consolidates those entities that are majority owned and controlled. The adoption of FIN 46 in 2004 for variable interest entities created before February 1, 2003 resulted in the consolidation of five joint ventures effective January 1, 2004, that were previously accounted for under the equity method. The consolidation of these joint ventures did not have a significant effect on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet or statement of income.

The Company has eleven consolidated partnerships that have a limited life. As of March 31, 2004, the estimated settlement value of the minority interests is $6.0 million, which is approximately $4.0 million more than the carrying amount.

7

Federal Income Taxes

HCP has made an election to qualify and believes it operates so as to qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes. However, under the Tax Relief Extension Act of 1999, which became effective on January 1, 2001, HCP is permitted to participate in certain previously precluded activities and still maintain its REIT qualification. These activities must be conducted by entities which elect to be treated as taxable REIT subsidiaries (“TRSs”). Accordingly, the Company will be subject to federal and state income taxes on the income generated within the TRSs. During the quarters ended March 31, 2004 and 2003, the Company’s tax provision related to such activities was not significant.

Stock Split

As of March 2, 2004, each shareholder of record on February 4, 2004 received one additional share of common stock for each share they owned on such record date resulting from a 2-for-1 stock split in the form of a stock dividend declared on January 22, 2004. The stock split has been reflected in all periods presented.

(2) INVESTMENTS IN AND ADVANCES TO UNCONSOLIDATED JOINT VENTURES

HCP Medical Office Portfolio, LLC

The Company is the managing member of HCP Medical Office Portfolio, LLC (“HCP MOP”), and has a 33% equity interest therein. The joint venture is engaged in the acquisition and operation of medical office building properties. Summarized unaudited financial information of HCP MOP follows:

Net income	$	2,955

HCP MOP acquired 100 properties from MedCap Properties, LLC (“MedCap”) in October 2003 for $460 million, including the assumption of $26 million of mortgage debt at the acquisition date. On January 20, 2004, HCP MOP completed $288 million of mortgage financings of which $254 million is at a weighted average fixed rate of 5.57% and the balance is at a floating rate based on LIBOR plus 1.75%. The Company received $92 million of distributions from the financing.

In connection with the acquisition of properties by HCP MOP from MedCap, the Company acquired five medical office buildings that are under construction. These properties have scheduled completion dates in 2004 and an aggregate expected cost of $67 million. At March 31, 2004, these assets are included in construction in progress. The Company previously expected these assets to be acquired by HCP MOP upon completion of construction; however, the Company presently expects that it will retain ownership in these assets. Accordingly, such assets have been reclassified to construction in progress from investment in and advances to unconsolidated joint ventures at December 31, 2003.

Tenant improvements, lease acquisition costs and operating expenses of HCP MOP are funded through property operations. The Company may be required to provide additional funding if the joint venture does not have sufficient funds to cover these expenditures.

As of March 31, 2004, the Company has guaranteed approximately $7.5 million out of a total of $16.6 million of notes payable for four of the joint ventures. Additionally, the properties owned by the ARC JVs are secured by $55.3 million of first mortgages. These mortgages have variable and fixed interest rates ranging from 1.2% to 9.5% and maturity dates ranging from May 2005 to June 2025.

At March 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003, the Company had a loan of $77.7 million and $76.2 million, respectively, to a subsidiary of ARC that is collateralized by the facilities held by the joint ventures. At March 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003, the Company had an additional secured loan to ARC of $2.3 million and $7.0 million, respectively. These loans are included in loans to joint venture partners on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet.

The Company’s maximum exposure to losses for joint ventures at March 31, 2004 is the carrying amount of the joint venture investments of $62 million and an additional $7.5 million resulting from the guarantee of notes payable discussed above. The Company’s exposure may increase if required to provide any additional funding to HCP MOP.

Diluted earnings per common share are calculated including the effect of potentially dilutive securities. Options to purchase 971,000 and 1,414,000 shares of common stock that had an exercise price in excess of the average market price of the common stock during the months ended March 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively, were not included because they are not dilutive. Additionally, 5,259,000 and 3,208,000 shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of non-managing member units were not included for the three months ended March 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively, since they are not dilutive.

(8) COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

At March 31, 2004, the Company had contractual commitments to acquire or construct $125.5 million of health care real estate and capital projects.

In connection with the transfer of operations of certain long-term care or assisted living facilities from existing lessees to replacement lessees/operators, the Company has provided limited indemnities and guaranties pertaining to certain matters relating to such facilities prior to the transfer date. The Company’s maximum potential exposure for these limited indemnities and guaranties was $2.6 million as of March 31, 2004, although actual costs, if any, related to these indemnities are expected to be nominal.

One of the Company’s hospitals located in Tarzana, California, and operated by Tenet under a lease expiring in February 2009 is affected by State of California Senate Bill 1953 (SB 1953), which requires compliance with certain seismic safety building standards for acute care hospital facilities by January 1, 2013. The Company and Tenet are currently reviewing the SB 1953 compliance of this hospital, multiple plans of action to cause such compliance, the estimated time for completing the same and the cost of performing necessary remediation of the property. The Company cannot currently estimate the potential costs of SB 1953 compliance with respect to the affected hospital or the final allocation of such costs between the Company and the operator. Rent on the hospital in 2003 was $10.8 million and the carrying amount is $81 million at December 31, 2003.

On March 12, 2004, James G. Reynolds, the Company’s former Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, filed a lawsuit against the Company and Kenneth B. Roath, the Company’s Chairman, and James F. Flaherty III, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and a director. The lawsuit was filed in Superior Court of California, County of Orange and is styledJames G. Reynolds vs. Health Care Property Investors, Inc., Kenneth B. Roath and James Flaherty, III, et al. Reynolds, alleges, among other things, breach of oral contract, promissory fraud, defamation, wrongful constructive termination, infliction of emotional distress and age discrimination. In his complaint, Reynolds claims that he was promised an employment contract providing that, in the event he was terminated in breach of contract, he would receive two years of salary and bonus, and accelerated vesting of all unvested stock options and restricted stock as if he had been employed through and including five years after the date of such termination. Reynolds also claims that he was promised a supplemental executive retirement plan and an enhanced operational role in the Company. He further claims that he is owed $200,000 of unpaid wages relating to an alleged unpaid bonus for 2001 performance. Reynolds seeks unspecified compensatory, consequential and punitive damages relating to his claims. The Company accrued an immaterial charge related to such claims during the three months ended March 31, 2004; such estimate is subject to future revision. The Company believes that Reynolds’ claims are not meritorious and is contesting them.

According to public disclosures by Tenet and HealthSouth, these operators are experiencing significant legal, financial and regulatory difficulties. The Company cannot predict the impact, if any, of the outcome of these uncertainties on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The failure or inability of these operators to pay their obligations could materially reduce revenues, net income, and cash flows, which could in turn reduce the amount of cash available for the payment of dividends, cause the Company’s stock price to decline, and cause the Company to incur impairment charges or a loss on the sale of the properties.

The Company is from time to time a party to legal proceedings, lawsuits and other claims in the ordinary course of business. These claims, even if not meritorious, could force the Company to spend significant financial resources. While the resolution of any of the aforementioned contingencies could materially and adversely affect the Company’s results of operations and cash flows in the period recorded, the Company is not aware of any legal proceedings, claims, or other contingencies that are believed to have, individually or taken together, a material adverse effect on its business, prospects, or financial condition.

OVERVIEW

Health Care Property Investors, Inc., is a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) that, together with its consolidated subsidiaries and joint ventures (collectively, “HCP” or the “Company”) invests in health care related properties located throughout the United States. Generally, the Company acquires health care facilities and leases them on a long-term basis to health care providers; however, the Company also lease medical office space to providers and physicians on a shorter term basis. In addition, the Company provides mortgage financing on health care facilities.

As of March 31, 2004, the Company has investments in 537 properties located in 43 states, excluding assets which are held for sale. These properties include 30 hospitals, 173 long-term care facilities, 122 assisted and retirement living facilities, 188 medical office buildings (“MOBs”) and 24 other health care facilities. The Company’s total investment in these properties, which represents the historical cost of real estate and the net book value of unconsolidated joint ventures and mortgage loans, was $3.3 billion at March 31, 2004.

APPLICATION OF CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

Certain of the Company’s critical accounting policies are complex and involve judgments by management, including the use of estimates and assumptions, which affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and the related disclosures. As a result, changes in these estimates and assumptions could significantly affect the Company’s financial position or results of operations. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. The significant and critical accounting policies used in the preparation of the Company’s financial statements are described in the 2003 Annual Report.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Income from continuing operations applicable to common shares for the three months ended March 31, 2004 and 2003 was $31.0 million, or $0.23 per diluted share and $25.3 million, or $0.21 per diluted share, respectively.

Rental income primarily consists of revenue earned under triple net lease arrangements. Rental income increased 13.9% to $63.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2004 compared to $55.4 million in the year ago period. The increase was primarily attributable to acquisitions and completed development, lease resets, and contractual escalators. Medical office building rental income was $24.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2004, which increased 20.8% from $20.4 million in the year ago period. The increase was primarily attributable to the purchase of thirteen properties from MedCap Properties, LLC in October 2003. Medical office building operating expenses were $9.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2004, which increased 23.6% from $7.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2003.

Equity income from unconsolidated joint ventures was $1.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2004 compared to $0.1 million for in the year ago period. The increase was primarily due to the Company’s investment in HCP MOP in October 2003. During the three months ended March 31, 2004, the Company recognized $1.0 million in equity income from HCP MOP. At March 31, 2004, 109 properties were held by unconsolidated joint ventures including HCP MOP compared to 19 properties at March 31, 2003.

Interest and other income was $9.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2004, a decline of 8.5% from $10.0 million in the year ago period. The decrease in interest and other income was primarily due to the net effects of the partial repayment of a loan to American Retirement Corporation (“ARC”) and a change in the Company’s accrual rate on the remaining balance of that loan. During the third quarter of 2003, ARC repaid $52 million of outstanding principal and interest. Partially offsetting this repayment was an increase in the accrual rate on the remaining balance ($76 million) from 13.25% during the three months ended March 31, 2003 to 16.5% during the three months ended March 31, 2004. The accrual rate on the loan was increased during the third quarter of 2003 based on our evaluation of the sufficiency of the net assets collateralizing the loan. Also offsetting the decline in interest and other income from the ARC loan are fees of $0.8 million the Company recognized related to HCP MOP.

15

Interest expense was $22.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2004 which increased 2.2% from $21.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2003. This increase was primarily due to the issuance of $200 million of 6.00% notes in February 2003, partially offset by the payoff of certain mortgages and senior notes payable and a reduction of amounts outstanding on the Company’s line of credit.

General and administrative expenses were $7.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2004, which increased 39.3% from $5.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2003. The increase in general and administrative expenses is primarily due to higher employee compensation and related costs.

Real estate depreciation and amortization was $20.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2004 which increased 12.4% from $18.3 million in the year ago period. The increase is due to the acquisition of properties totaling $239.1 million during 2003, and an additional $47.8 million during the three months ended March 31, 2004.

Income from discontinued operations for the three months ended March 31, 2004 was $10.6 million, or $0.08 per share and for the three months ended March 31, 2003 was a loss of $3.8 million, or $0.03 per share. The increase in income from discontinued operations is due to a net gain on real estate dispositions and impairments of $9.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2004 compared to a net loss on real estate dispositions and impairments of $6.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2003.

See Note 8 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements regarding commitments and contingencies.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Net cash flows from operating activities represent the primary source of liquidity to fund distributions. The Company’s cash flows from operations are dependent upon the occupancy level of multi-tenant buildings, the tenant’s performance on its lease obligations and the rental rates on leases. Material changes in either of these factors could have a material adverse impact on our results of operations. In order to qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, the Company must distribute at least 90% of its taxable income to its shareholders. Accordingly, the Company intends to continue to make regular quarterly distributions to holders of our common and preferred stock. During the first quarter of 2004, the Company paid dividends totaling $54.8 million and $6.4 million to holders of common and preferred stock, respectively. The Company believes that its liquidity and capital resources are adequate to finance its operations for the foreseeable future.

Net cash provided by operating activities was $67.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2004 compared to $72.2 million in the year ago period. The decrease in cash flow from operations reflects increased rental income and medical office building rental income offset by higher costs and expenses, and changes in receivables, payables, accruals and deferred income.

Net cash provided by investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2004 principally includes: (i) $98.2 million from the sale of seven medical office buildings and ten other health-care related facilities, (ii) the acquisition of a healthcare laboratory and biotech research facility located in San Diego, California for a purchase price of $40 million, (iii) $92 million received from HCP MOP upon the completion of certain mortgage financing, and (iv) other investments and loans of $13.7 million.

Net cash used in financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2004 principally includes: (i) the repayment of $51.1 million of Senior Notes, (ii) payment of common and preferred dividends aggregating $61.2 million, and (iii) net repayments on the Company’s revolving line of credit of $108.0 million. These uses were partially offset by proceeds of $16.3 million from common stock issuances.

During the three months ended March 31, 2004, the Company issued and sold 237,000 shares of common stock under the Dividend Reinvestment and Stock Purchase Plan (“DRIP”) at an average price per share of $27.32 for proceeds of $6.5 million. Recent optional investment activity in the DRIP has declined significantly from previous levels due to the exclusion of certain participants who were managing multiple accounts and engaging in short term

16

trading activities. Additionally, effective January 1, 2004, the Company reduced the discount on its shares of common stock purchased through the DRIP from 2% to 1%.

Debt

Because the Company’s anticipated distributions will not allow it to retain sufficient cash to repay all of its debt as it comes due using only cash flows provided by operating activities, the Company intends to repay maturing debt with proceeds from debt and/or equity offerings. In addition, the Company anticipates making future investments in facilities, which will be dependent on the availability of cost-effective sources of capital. The Company uses the public debt and equity markets as its principle source of financing. Our senior debt is rated BBB+ by both Standard & Poor’s and Fitch and Baa2 by Moody’s.

As of March 31, 2004, the Company has the following outstanding debt:

Revolving Line of Credit—The Company has a revolving line of credit totaling $490 million which expires October 2005. Borrowings under the line of credit were $90.0 million at March 31, 2004. The weighted average annual interest rate during the three months ended March 31, 2004 was 1.97%.

Mortgage Notes Payable—At March 31, 2004, the Company had a total of approximately $126.3 million in mortgage notes payable secured by 29 health care facilities with a carrying amount of approximately $220.9 million. Interest rates on the mortgage notes ranged from 2.75% to 10.63% with a weighted average rate of 8.02% during the three months ended March 31, 2004.

Senior Notes—At March 31, 2004, the Company had a total of $1,004.4 million in aggregate principal amount of Senior Notes outstanding. Interest rates on the notes ranged from 6.13% to 9.10% with a weighted average rate of 6.84% during the three months ended March 31, 2004.

At March 31, 2004, stockholders’ equity totaled $1,445.5 million and the Company’s equity securities had a market value of $4,190.4 million. Total debt represents 22.5% and 45.7% of total market and book capitalization, respectively.

Preferred stock

At March 31, 2004, the Company has outstanding 4,000,000 shares of 7.25% Series E cumulative redeemable preferred stock (issuance value of $100 million) and 7,820,000 shares of 7.10% Series F cumulative redeemable preferred stock (issuance value of $195.5 million).

Shelf registrations

As of March 31, 2004, the Company had $1,600 million available for future issuances of debt and equity securities under shelf registration statements filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. These securities may be issued from time to time in the future based on our needs and the then-existing market conditions.

Letters of credit and depositor accounts

At March 31, 2004, the Company held approximately $14.7 million in depository accounts and $39.9 million in irrevocable letters of credit from commercial banks to secure a number of tenants’ lease obligations and borrowers’ loan obligations. The Company may draw upon the letters of credit or depository accounts if there are defaults under the related leases or loans. Amounts available under letters of credit could change based upon facility operating conditions and other factors and such changes may be material.

As of March 31, 2004, the Company has guaranteed approximately $7.5 million out of a total of $16.6 million of notes payable for four of the joint ventures. Additionally, the properties owned by the ARC JVs are secured by $55.3 million of first mortgages. These mortgages have variable and fixed interest rates ranging from 1.2% to 9.5% and maturity dates ranging from May 2005 to June 2025.

At March 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003, the Company had a loan of $77.7 million and $76.2 million, respectively, to a subsidiary of ARC that is collateralized by the facilities held by the joint ventures. At March 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003, the Company had an additional secured loan to ARC of $2.3 million and $7.0 million, respectively.

The Company’s revenue from those joint ventures represented less than 1% of its revenue less operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2004.

19

The Company’s maximum exposure to losses for joint ventures at March 31, 2004 is the carrying amount of the joint venture investments of $62.0 million and an additional $7.5 million resulting from the guarantee of notes payable discussed above. The Company’s exposure may increase if required to provide any additional funding to HCP MOP.

Revenue Concentration

Tenet, ARC, Emeritus, Kindred, and HealthSouth accounted for approximately 12%, 11%, 6%, 5%, and 5% of the Company’s revenue less operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2004. No single other tenant or operator accounted for more than 5% of the Company’s revenue less operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2004. Cash flow coverage for rents of the seven Tenet hospitals was 2.9x for the full year 2003, including the effect of certain Medicare settlements related to 2003 and prior years, compared to 5.1x for the full year 2002. The Company leases nine rehabilitation hospitals to HealthSouth. HealthSouth has indicated that its previously issued financial statements should not be relied upon.

According to public disclosures, Tenet and HealthSouth are experiencing significant legal, financial and regulatory difficulties. The Company cannot predict with certainty the impact, if any, of the outcome of these uncertainties on its consolidated financial statements. The failure or inability of these operators to pay their obligations could materially reduce the Company’s revenues, net income, and cash flows, which could in turn reduce the amount of cash available for the payment of dividends, cause the Company’s stock price to decline, and could cause the Company to incur impairment charges or a loss on the sale of the properties.

Contractual Obligations

As of March 31, 2004, the Company’s contractual payment obligations were as follows:

	Nine Months		2005-2006		2007-2008		More than Five Years		Total
	(In thousands)

Item 3.QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Our investments are financed by the sale of common and preferred stock, long-term and medium-term debt, internally generated cash flows, and some short-term bank debt.

We generally have fixed base rent on our leases; in addition, there can be additional rent based on a percentage of increased revenue over specified base period revenue of the properties and/or increases based on inflation indices or other factors. Financing costs are comprised of dividends on common and preferred stock, interest on long-term and medium-term debt and short-term interest on bank debt.

On a more limited basis, we have provided mortgage loans to operators of health care facilities in the normal course of business. All of the mortgage loans receivable have fixed interest rates or interest rates with periodic fixed increases. Therefore, the mortgage loans receivable are all considered to be fixed rate loans, and the current interest rate (the lowest rate) is used in the computation of market risk provided in the following table if material.

20

We may assume existing mortgage notes payable as part of an acquisition transaction. Currently we have two mortgage notes payable with variable interest rates and the remaining mortgage notes payable have fixed interest rates or interest rates with fixed periodic increases. The variable rate loans are at interest rates below the current prime rate of 4.0%, and fluctuations are tied to the prime rate or to a rate currently below the prime rate.

At March 31, 2004, we are exposed to market risks related to fluctuations in interest rates on $4.1 million of variable rate mortgage notes payable and $90.0 million of variable rate bank notes payable on our total investment in our properties of $3.3 billion.

Fluctuation in the interest rate environment will not affect our future earnings and cash flows on our fixed rate debt until that debt matures and must be replaced or refinanced. Interest rate changes will affect the fair value of the fixed rate instruments. Conversely, changes in interest rates on variable rate debt would change our future earnings and cash flows, but not affect the fair value on those instruments. Assuming a one percentage point increase in the interest rate related to the variable rate debt including the mortgage notes payable and the bank lines of credit, and assuming no change in the outstanding balance as of year end, interest expense for 2004 would increase by approximately $0.9 million, or $0.01 per common share on a diluted basis.

Item 4.CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Also, we have investments in certain unconsolidated entities. As we do not control or manage these entities, our disclosure controls and procedures with respect to such entities are necessarily substantially more limited than those we maintain with respect to our consolidated subsidiaries.

As required by Rule 13a-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2004. Based on the foregoing, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.

There has been no change in our internal controls over financial reporting during our most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.Legal Proceedings

On March 12, 2004, James G. Reynolds, our former Executive Vice President and current Chief Financial Officer, filed a lawsuit against the Company and Kenneth B. Roath, our Chairman, and James F. Flaherty III, our Chief Executive Officer and a director. The lawsuit was filed in Superior Court of California, County of Orange and is styledJames G. Reynolds vs. Health Care Property Investors, Inc., Kenneth B. Roath and James Flaherty, III, et al. Reynolds, alleges, among other things, breach of oral contract, promissory fraud, defamation, wrongful constructive termination, infliction of emotional distress and age discrimination. In his complaint, Reynolds claims that he was promised an employment contract providing that, in the event he was terminated in breach of contract, he would receive two years of salary and bonus, and accelerated vesting of all unvested stock options and restricted stock as if he had been employed through and including five years after the date of such termination. Reynolds also

21

claims that he was promised a supplemental executive retirement plan and an enhanced operational role in the Company. He further claims that he is owed $200,000 of unpaid wages relating to an alleged unpaid bonus for 2001 performance. Reynolds seeks unspecified compensatory, consequential and punitive damages relating to his claims. The Company filed a demurrer on April 27, 2004. The Company believes that Reynolds’ claims are not meritorious and is contesting them.

* Management Contract or Compensatory Plan or Arrangement.

For the purposes of complying with the amendments to the rules governing Form S-8 (effective July 13, 1990) under the Securities Act of 1933, the undersigned registrant hereby undertakes as follows, which undertaking shall be incorporated by reference into registrant’s Registration Statement on Form S-8 Nos. 33-28483 and 333-90353 filed May 11, 1989 and November 5, 1999, respectively, Form S-8 Nos. 333-54786 and 333-54784 each filed February 1, 2001, and Form S-8 No. 333-108838 filed September 16, 2003.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is therefore, unenforceable.

28

asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue
