The Company’s principal uses of its liquidity are expected to be for distributions to its shareholders and OP unitholders, debt service and loan repayments, and property investment which includes funding of its joint venture commitments, acquisition, redevelopment, expansion and re-tenanting activities. In order to qualify as a REIT for Federal income tax purposes, the Company must currently distribute at least 90% of its taxable income to its shareholders. For the year ended December 31, 2002, the Company paid a quarterly dividend of $0.13 per Common Share and Common OP Unit. In February of 2003, the Board of Trustees approved and declared an 11.5% increase in the Company’s quarterly dividend to $0.145 per Common Share and Common OP Unit. The first quarter 2003 dividend is payable April 15, 2003 to shareholders and OP unitholders of record as of March 31, 2003. The Board of Trustees also approved a distribution of $22.50 per Preferred OP Unit, to be paid on April 15, 2003.
During 2001, the Company committed $20.0 million to a newly formed joint venture formed with four of its institutional shareholders, who committed $70.0 million, for the purpose of acquiring a total of approximately $300.0 million of community and neighborhood shopping centers on a leveraged basis. The Company is the manager and general partner of ASOF with a 22% interest. In addition to a pro-rata return on its invested equity, the Company is entitled to a profit participation in excess of its invested capital based upon certain investment return thresholds. Cash flow is to be distributed to the partners (including the Company) until they have received a 9% cumulative return and a full return of all contributions. Thereafter, remaining cash flow is to be distributed 80% to the partners (including the Company) and 20% to the Company. The Company also earns a fee for asset management services equal to 1.5% of the total equity commitments, as well as market-rate fees for property management, leasing and construction services.
To date, ASOF has purchased a total of approximately $163.9 million in assets in three separate transactions, with an additional potential earnout of $42.0 million to $62.0 million related to the Brandywine Town Center acquisition. Details of these transactions are as follows:
In September of 2002, ASOF acquired three supermarket-anchored shopping centers located in Cleveland and Columbus, Ohio for a total purchase price of $26.7 million. ASOF assumed $12.6 million of fixed-rate debt on two of the properties at a blended rate of 8.1%. A new $6.0 million loan was obtained on the third property at a floating rate of LIBOR plus 200 basis points. The balance of the purchase price was funded by ASOF, of which the Company’s share was $1.8 million.
In January of 2003, ASOF formed a joint venture (the “Kroger/Safeway JV”) with an affiliate of real estate developer and investor AmCap Incorporated (“AmCap”) for the purpose of acquiring a portfolio of twenty-five supermarket leases. The portfolio, which aggregates approximately 1.0 million square feet, consists of 25 anchor-only leases with Kroger (12 leases) and Safeway supermarkets (13 leases). The majority of the properties are free-standing and all are triple-net leases. The Kroger/Safeway JV acquired the portfolio subject to long-term ground leases with terms, including renewal options, averaging in excess of 80 years, which are master leased to a non-affiliated entity. The base rental options for the supermarket leases at the end of their primary lease term in approximately seven years (“Primary Term”) are at an average of $5.13 per square foot. Although there is no obligation for the Kroger/Safeway JV to pay ground rent during the Primary Term, to the extent it exercises an option to renew a ground lease for a property at the end of the Primary Term, it will be obligated to pay an average ground rent of $1.55 per square foot.
The Kroger/Safeway JV acquired the portfolio for $47.9 million (inclusive of closing and other related acquisition costs), which included the assumption of an aggregate of $34.5 million of existing fixed-rate mortgage debt, which is at a blended fixed interest rate of 6.6% and is fully amortizing over the Primary Term. The individual mortgages are secured by each individual property and are not cross-collateralized. ASOF invested 90%, or $11.3 million, of the equity capitalization, of which the Company’s share was $2.5 million. AmCap contributed 10%, or $1.2 million. Cash flow is to be distributed to the Kroger/Safeway JV partners until they have received an 11% cumulative return and a full return of all contributions. Thereafter, remaining cash flow is to be distributed 75% to ASOF and 25% to AmCap. The Kroger/Safeway JV agreement also provides for additional allocations of cash based on ASOF achieving certain minimum investment returns to be determined on a “look-back” basis.
In January of 2003, ASOF acquired a major open-air retail complex located in Wilmington, Delaware. The approximately 1.0 million square foot value-based retail complex consists of the following two properties:
Market Square Shopping Center is a 103,000 square foot community shopping center which is 92% leased and anchored by a T.J. Maxx and a Trader Joe’s gourmet food market.
Back to Contents
Brandywine Town Center is a two phase open-air value retail center. The first phase (“Phase I”) is approximately 450,000 square feet and 97% occupied, with tenants including Lowe’s, Bed Bath & Beyond, Regal Cinema, Michaels, Petsmart, Old Navy, Annie Sez, Thomasville Furniture, KB Toys and Dick’s Sporting Goods. The second phase (“Phase II”) consists of approximately 420,000 square feet of existing space, of which Target occupies 138,000 square feet. The balance of Phase II, which is currently not occupied, is to be paid for on an earnout basis as it is leased and occupied.
The initial investment for the portfolio was approximately $89.3 million, inclusive of closing and other related acquisition costs. ASOF assumed $38.1 million of fixed rate debt on the two properties at a blended rate of 8.1%. A new $30.0 million, 4.7% fixed-rate loan was also obtained in conjunction with the acquisition and is collateralized by a portion of the Brandywine Town Center. The balance of the purchase price was funded by ASOF, of which the Company’s share was $4.3 million. ASOF will also pay additional amounts in conjunction with the lease-up of the current vacant space in Phase II (the “Earnout”). The additional investment, depending on the Earnout, is projected to be between $42.0 million and $62.0 million, of which the Company’s share would be between $9.3 million and $13.8 million. To the extent ASOF places additional mortgage debt upon the lease-up of Phase II, the required equity contribution for the Earnout would be less. The Earnout is structured such that ASOF has no time requirement or payment obligation for any portion of currently vacant space which it is unable to lease.
Property Redevelopment and Expansion
The Company’s redevelopment program focuses on selecting well-located neighborhood and community shopping centers and creating significant value through re-tenanting and property redevelopment. The Company completed the redevelopment of the Elmwood Park Shopping Center during 2002 and continued its progress on the redevelopment of the Gateway Shopping Center as follows:
Elmwood Park Shopping Center – This shopping center located in Elmwood Park, New Jersey, is approximately ten miles west of New York City. The redevelopment consisted of re-anchoring, renovating and expanding the existing 125,000 square foot shopping center by 30,000 square feet. The first phase included the relocation and expansion of a Walgreen’s into a 15,000 square foot, state-of-the-art drugstore that includes a drive-through pharmacy.
In November 2002, a Pathmark supermarket opened in a new freestanding 49,000 square foot building, replacing the former undersized (28,000 square feet) in-line Grand Union supermarket. As of December 31, 2002, costs incurred on this project totaled $13.3 million, which excludes $3.8 million in tenant reimbursements. Costs incurred to date include $2.8 million representing an obligation to the original owners who contributed the property to the Company in connection with the RDC Transaction in August 1998. These partners had the option to receive either cash or OP Units in settlement of this obligation. In March 2003, $2.5 million was paid in cash and $262,000 was satisfied with the issuance of a total of 34,841 Common OP Units, all of which were issued to Mr. Dworman, Chairman of the Board of Trustees. The Company expects remaining redevelopment costs of approximately $1.0 million to complete this project.
Gateway Shopping Center – The redevelopment of the Gateway Shopping Center, formerly a partially enclosed mall located in South Burlington, Vermont, includes the demolition of 90% of the property and the construction of a new anchor supermarket. Construction of a new 72,000 Shaw’s Supermarket is ongoing, which will replace the 32,000 square foot store formerly occupied by Grand Union. Total costs through December 31, 2002 for this project, including the original acquisition costs, were $10.4 million. The Company expects remaining redevelopment costs of approximately $7.5 million to complete this project, which it anticipates completing in the second half of 2003.
Additionally, for the year ending December 31, 2003, the Company currently estimates that capital outlays of approximately $12.0 million to $14.0 million will be required for tenant improvements, related renovations and other property improvements.
Share Repurchase
The Company’s repurchase of its Common Shares is an additional use of liquidity. Upon completion of a tender offer in February 2002, the Company purchased a total of 5,523,974 Common Shares and Common OP Units (collectively, “Shares”), comprised of 4,136,321 Common Shares and 1,387,653 Common OP Units (which were converted to Common Shares upon tender), at a Purchase Price of $6.05 per Share. The aggregate purchase price paid for the 5,523,974 Shares was $33.4 million. In addition to the tender offer, the Company has an existing share repurchase program that authorizes management, at its discretion, to repurchase up to $20.0 million of the Company’s outstanding Common Shares. Through March 24, 2003, the Company had repurchased 1,931,682 Common Shares (net of 123,173 shares reissued) at a total cost of $11.6 million. The program may be discontinued or extended at any time and there is no assurance that the Company will purchase the full amount authorized.

SOURCES OF LIQUIDITY
The Company intends on using ASOF as the primary vehicle for future acquisitions. Sources of capital for funding the Company’s joint venture commitment, other property acquisitions, redevelopment, expansion and re-tenanting, as well as future repurchases of Common Shares are expected to be obtained primarily from cash on hand, additional debt financings and future sales of existing properties. As of December 31, 2002, the Company had a total of approximately $48.1 million of additional capacity with six lenders, of which the Company is required to draw $12.7 million by December 2003, or forego the ability to draw these funds at any time during the remaining term of the loans. Of the remaining capacity, approximately $6.0 million is subject to additional leasing requirements at the collateral properties and certain lender requirements, which the Company has not yet satisfied. The Company also had cash and cash equivalents on hand of $45.2 million at December 31, 2002 as well as six properties that are currently unencumbered and therefore available as potential collateral for future borrowings. The Company anticipates that cash flow from operating activities will continue to provide adequate capital for all debt service payments, recurring capital expenditures and REIT distribution requirements.
Financing and Debt
At December 31, 2002, mortgage notes payable aggregated $202.4 million and were collateralized by 25 properties and related tenant leases. Interest on the Company’s outstanding mortgage indebtedness ranged from 2.9% to 8.1% with maturities that ranged from August 2003 to January 2011. Taking into effect $87.1 million of notional principal under variable to fixed-rate swap agreements, $145.2 million of the portfolio, or 72%, was fixed at a 6.8% weighted average interest rate and $57.2 million, or 28% was floating at a 3.3% weighted average interest rate. Of the total outstanding debt, $19.6 million will become due by 2004, with scheduled maturities of $16.1 million with a weighted average interest rate of 3.4% in 2003, and $3.5 million with a weighted average interest rate of 7.9% in 2004. As the Company does not anticipate having sufficient cash on hand to repay such indebtedness, it will need to refinance this indebtedness or select other alternatives based on market conditions at that time.
The following summarizes the financing and refinancing transactions since December 31, 2001:
On March 15, 2002, the Company extended a maturing $7.0 million loan with a bank. The debt, which is secured by one of the Company’s properties, requires the monthly payment of interest at the rate of LIBOR plus 175 basis points and principal amortized over 25 years and now matures March 15, 2007.
On April 16, 2002, the Company closed on a $9.4 million loan with a bank. The debt, which is secured by one of the Company’s properties and matures January 1, 2007, initially requires the monthly payment of interest at the rate of LIBOR plus 300 basis points and principal amortized over 25 years. Following the completion of certain construction at the property, the rate decreases to LIBOR plus 175 basis points. The Company has drawn $6.3 million under this facility to repay $6.2 million to the previous lender on the property and for loan closing costs. Upon completion of the planned construction at this property and subject to other conditions including loan-to-value limit and debt service coverage ratio, the Company may draw the remaining $3.1 available under this facility.
On May 31, 2002, the Company refinanced a maturing $9.1 million loan with a bank. The loan, which is secured by one of the Company’s properties, requires the monthly payment of interest at the rate of LIBOR plus 175 basis points and principal amortized over 25 years and now matures June 1, 2007. Subject to other conditions including loan-to-value limit and debt service coverage ratio, the Company may draw an additional $1.3 million under this facility.
On June 17, 2002, the Company repaid a $7.2 million loan, which was secured by one of the Company’s properties, with a bank using funds from working capital.
On June 25, 2002, the Company refinanced a maturing $13.4 million loan with a life insurance company, increasing the outstanding principal to $13.8 million. The loan, which is secured by one of the Company’s properties, requires the monthly payment of interest at the rate of 6.5% and principal amortized over 25 years and now matures July 1, 2007.
In June of 2002, the Company completed two interest rate swap transactions (“Swap Agreements”) to hedge the Company’s exposure to changes in interest rates with respect to $25.1 million of LIBOR based variable rate debt. The Swap Agreements, which are for $15.9 million and $9.2 million of notional principal mature January 1, 2007 and June 1, 2007, respectively. These Swap Agreements are at a weighted average fixed interest rate, including the credit spreads of 175 basis points, of 6.2%.
On July 10, 2002, the Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement to hedge its exposure to changes in interest rates with respect to $12.3 million of LIBOR based variable-rate debt. The swap agreement, which matures January 1, 2007, provides for a fixed all-in interest rate of 4.1%.
On September 26, 2002, the Company refinanced a maturing $9.5 million loan with a life insurance company. The loan, which is secured by one of the Company’s properties, requires monthly payment of interest at the rate of LIBOR plus 173 basis points and principal amortized over 25 years and matures October 1, 2005.

On September 27, 2002, the Company repaid a $4.0 million loan with a life insurance company in connection with the sale of a property on October 11, 2002.
On November 22, 2002, the Company closed on a $20.0 million revolving credit facility with a bank. The facility, which is secured by one of the Company’s properties and matures November 22, 2007, requires the monthly payment of interest only at the rate of LIBOR plus 170 basis points subject to a total floor of 3.3%. As of December 31, 2002, no amounts have been drawn under this facility and future draws are subject to meeting certain conditions including a loan-to-value limit and debt service coverage ratio. The Company also pays a 15 basis point fee per annum for the unused portion of the facility on a quarterly basis.
On January 2, 2003, the Company drew down $5.0 million of an available $10.0 million facility with a bank and used the proceeds to partially pay down the outstanding principal on another loan with the same lender.

Notes:
(1) | The Company received a $3.6 million purchase money note. The note, which matures January 15, 2005, requires monthly interest of 7% for year one, increasing at a rate of 1% per annum throughout the term. As part of the transaction, the Company agreed to reimburse the purchaser 50% of the former Ames rent, or $22 per month, for a period of 18 months (through July 2003). |
| |
(2) | This portfolio of 17 properties was sold to a single buyer subject to a $42.4 million fixed-rate, cross-collateralized and securitized loan. Proceeds include the sale of various escrows including capital expenditure reserves. $6.3 million of the initial proceeds represented senior preferred equity in the buyer which was subsequently redeemed to the Company in December 2002. |
| |
(3) | These two properties were sold to a single buyer. The Company received two purchase money notes in connection with the sale. The first for $11.0 million was repaid in full in November 2002. The second for $1.6 million matures October 2003, requiring monthly interest of 5% to February 1, 2003, and then 10% thereafter. As part of the transaction, the Company repaid $3.1 million of mortgage debt secured by the Valmont Plaza. The $4.0 million of mortgage debt secured by the Manahawkin Village Shopping Center was repaid in full in September 2002, prior to the sale. |
Additionally the Company completed the following two land sales in 2002:
In January 2002, the Company, in conjunction with a joint venture partner, purchased a three-acre site located in the Bronx, New York for $3.1 million. Simultaneously, the Company sold approximately 46% of the land to a self-storage facility for $3.3 million. The Company’s share of net proceeds totaled $1.4 million. The Company currently plans to build and lease a 15,000 square foot retail building on the remaining parcel.
On November 8, 2002, the Company and an unaffiliated joint venture partner completed the sale of a contract to purchase land in Bethel, Connecticut, to the Target Corporation for $1.5 million after closing and other related costs. The joint venture received a $1.6 million note receivable for the net purchase price and additional reimbursements due from the buyer, which was paid in full subsequent to December 31, 2002. The Company’s share of net proceeds totaled $1.4 million.

OFF BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
The Company has two off balance sheet joint ventures for the purpose of investing in operating properties as follows:
The Company owns a 49% interest in two partnerships which own the Crossroads Shopping Center (“Crossroads”). The Company accounts for its investment in Crossroads using the equity method of accounting as it has a non-controlling investment in Crossroads, but exercises significant influence. As such, the Company’s financial statements reflect its share of income from, but not the assets and liabilities of, Crossroads. The Company’s effective pro rata share of Crossroads mortgage debt as of December 31, 2002 was $16.5 million. Interest on the debt, which matures in October 2007, has been effectively fixed at 7.2% through variable to fixed-rate swap agreements.
Reference is made to the discussion of ASOF under “Uses of Liquidity” in this Item 7 for additional detail related to the Company’s investment in and commitments to ASOF. The Company owns a 22% interest in ASOF for which it also uses the equity method of accounting. The Company’s effective pro rata share of ASOF fixed-rate mortgage debt as of December 31, 2002 was $2.8 million at a weighted average interest rate of 8.1%. The Company’s effective pro rata share of ASOF variable-rate mortgage debt as of December 31, 2002 was $1.3 million at an interest rate of 3.4%. Maturities on these loans range from October 2007 to January 2023.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements in Item 8 contain a complete discussion of the Company’s obligations under various operating leases.
The following table sets forth information as it relates to the Company’s contractual obligations under off balance sheet arrangements (amounts in millions):

HISTORICAL CASH FLOW
The following discussion of historical cash flow compares the Company’s cash flow for the year ended December 31, 2002 (“2002’) with the Company’s cash flow for the year ended December 31, 2001 (“2001”).
Cash and cash equivalents were $45.2 million and $33.9 million at December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively. The increase of $11.3 million was a result of the following increases and decreases in cash flows:
(amounts in millions) | | Years Ended December 31, | |
| |
| |
| | 2002 | | 2001 | | Variance | |
| |
|
| |
|
| |
|
| |
Net cash provided by operating activities | | $ | 24.9 | | $ | 20.5 | | $ | 4.4 | |
Net cash provided by (used in)investing activities | | | 24.6 | | | (11.2 | ) | | 35.8 | |
Net cash used in financing activities | | | (58.8 | ) | | (7.0 | ) | | (51.8 | ) |
Net cash provided by discontinued operations | | | 20.5 | | | 10.2 | | | 10.3 | |
The variance in net cash provided by operating activities resulted from an increase of $7.0 million in operating income before non-cash expenses in 2002, which was primarily due to $3.9 million of lease termination income received in 2002 and lower interest expense due to lower average interest rates on the portfolio mortgage debt. This increase was partially offset by a net decrease in cash provided by changes in operating assets and liabilities of $2.6 million, primarily rents receivable.
The variance in net cash provided by (used in) investing activities was primarily the result of an increase of $41.0 million received in 2002 from the collection of purchase money notes from the sale of properties, offset by an increase of $2.1 million in expenditures for real estate acquisitions, development and tenant installation costs in 2002 and an additional $2.9 million investment in an unconsolidated partnership in 2002.

Back to Contents
The increase in net cash used in financing activities resulted primarily from $33.4 million of cash used in 2002 for the Company’s Tender Offer and a decrease of $43.6 million of cash provided by additional borrowings in 2002. This was partially offset by $16.8 million of additional cash used in 2001 for the repayment of debt and $5.1 million used in 2001 for the redemption of Common OP Units.
The increase in net cash provided by discontinued operations resulted from additional cash used in 2001 for the repayment of debt. This increase was offset by a decrease in operating income before non-cash expenses in 2002, a decrease in net sales proceeds received in 2002 and a decrease in cash provided by additional borrowings in 2002.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is based upon the Company’s consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. The Company believes the following critical accounting policies affect the significant judgments and estimates used by the Company in the preparation of its consolidated financial statements.
Valuation of Property Held for Use and Sale
On a quarterly basis, the Company reviews the carrying value of both properties held for use and for sale. The Company records impairment losses and reduces the carrying value of properties when indicators of impairment are present and the expected undiscounted cash flows related to those properties are less than their carrying amounts. In cases where the Company does not expect to recover its carrying costs on properties held for use, the Company reduces its carrying cost to fair value, and for properties held for sale, the Company reduces its carrying value to the fair value less costs to sell. For the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001, impairment losses of $197,000 and $15.9 million were recognized related to sold properties. Management does not believe that the value of the remaining properties held for sale or properties in use are impaired as of December 31, 2002.
Bad Debts
The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of tenants to make payments on arrearages in billed rents, as well as the likelihood that tenants will not have the ability to make payment on unbilled rents including estimated expense recoveries and straight-line rent. As of December 31, 2002, the Company had recorded an allowance for doubtful accounts of $2.3 million. If the financial condition of the Company’s tenants were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowances may be required.
INFLATION
The Company’s long-term leases contain provisions designed to mitigate the adverse impact of inflation on the Company’s net income. Such provisions include clauses enabling the Company to receive percentage rents based on tenants’ gross sales, which generally increase as prices rise, and/or, in certain cases, escalation clauses, which generally increase rental rates during the terms of the leases. Such escalation clauses are often related to increases in the consumer price index or similar inflation indexes. In addition, many of the Company’s leases are for terms of less than ten years, which permits the Company to seek to increase rents upon re-rental at market rates if current rents are below the then existing market rates. Most of the Company’s leases require the tenants to pay their share of operating expenses, including common area maintenance, real estate taxes, insurance and utilities, thereby reducing the Company’s exposure to increases in costs and operating expenses resulting from inflation.

In April 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 145, “Rescission of FASB Statements No. 4, 44, and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections” (“SFAS No. 145”). This statement eliminates the requirement to report gains and losses from extinguishment of debt as extraordinary unless they meet the criteria of APB Opinion 30. SFAS No. 145 also requires sale-leaseback accounting for certain lease modifications that have economic effects that are similar to sale-leaseback transactions. The changes related to lease accounting are effective for transactions occurring after May 15, 2002 and the changes related to debt extinguishment are effective for fiscal years beginning after May 15, 2002. The impact of adopting the provisions related to lease accounting did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations. The impact of adopting the provisions related to debt extinguishment is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.
In June 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, “Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities” (“SFAS No. 146”). SFAS No. 146 nullifies Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 94-3 and requires that a liability for a cost associated with an exit or disposal activity be recognized when the liability is incurred. This statement also establishes that fair value is the objective for initial measurement of the liability. SFAS No. 146 is effective for exit or disposal activities that are initiated after December 31, 2002.

The impact of the adoption of SFAS No. 146 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.
In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation – Transition and Disclosure, an amendment of FASB Statement No. 123” (“SFAS No. 148”). SFAS No. 148 amends SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” to provide alternative methods of transition for an entity that voluntarily changes to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. It also amends the disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 123 to require prominent disclosure about the effects on reported net income of an entity’s accounting policy decisions with respect to stock-based employee compensation. Effective January 1, 2002, the Company adopted the fair value method of recording stock-based compensation contained in SFAS No. 123. As such, all vested stock options granted after December 31, 2001 will be reflected as compensation expense in the Company’s consolidated financial statements over the vesting period based on the fair value at the date the stock-based compensation was granted. Under SFAS No. 123, companies may elect to choose from three alternative transition methods as it relates to the adoption of the fair value basis method of accounting for employee stock options. The Company has elected the prospective method whereby compensation expense will be recognized only for those options issued after December 31, 2001.
In November 2002, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 45, “Guarantor’s Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others” (“FIN 45”). FIN 45 requires that upon issuance of a guarantee a guarantor must recognize a liability for the fair value of an obligation assumed under a guarantee. FIN 45 also requires additional disclosures by a guarantor in its interim and annual financial statements about the obligations associated with guarantees issued. The recognition provisions of FIN 45 are effective for any guarantees issued or modified after December 31, 2002. The disclosure requirements are effective for financial statements of interim or annual periods ending after December 15, 2002. The Company is currently evaluating the effects of the recognition provision of FIN 45, but does not expect the adoption to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.
In January 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 46 “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities” (“FIN 46”). In general, a variable interest entity is a corporation, partnership, trust, or any other legal structure used for business purposes that either (a) does not have equity investors with voting rights or (b) has equity investors that do not provide sufficient financial resources for the entity to support its activities. A variable interest entity often holds financial assets, including loans or receivables, real estate or other property. A variable interest entity may be essentially passive or it may engage in activities on behalf of another company. Until now, a company generally has included another entity in its consolidated financial statements only if it controlled the entity through voting interests. FIN 46 changes that by requiring a variable interest entity to be consolidated by a company if that company is subject to a majority of the risk of loss from the variable interest entity’s activities or entitled to receive a majority of the entity’s residual returns or both. FIN 46’s consolidation requirements apply immediately to variable interest entities created or acquired after January 31, 2003. The consolidation requirements apply to older entities in the first fiscal year or interim period beginning after June 15, 2003. Certain of the disclosure requirements apply in all financial statements issued after January 31, 2003, regardless of when the variable interest entity was established. The Company has adopted FIN 46 effective January 31, 2003. The Company does not anticipate that the adoption of FIN 46 will have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial condition or results of operations taken as a whole. The Company’s joint ventures are summarized in the notes to the consolidated financial statements appearing in Item 17 of this Form 10-K.
ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
The Company’s primary market risk exposure is to changes in interest rates related to the Company’s mortgage debt. See the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for certain quantitative details related to the Company’s mortgage debt.
Currently, the Company manages its exposure to fluctuations in interest rates primarily through the use of fixed-rate debt, interest rate swap agreements and LIBOR caps. As of December 31, 2002, the Company had total mortgage debt of $202.4 million of which $58.1 million, or 29% was fixed-rate and $144.3 million, or 71%, was variable-rate based upon LIBOR plus certain spreads. As of December 31, 2002, the Company had entered into five interest rate swap transactions to hedge the Company’s exposure to changes in interest rates with respect to $87.1 million of LIBOR based variable rate debt, effectively increasing the fixed-rate portion of its total outstanding debt as of December 31, 2002 to 72%. The Company also has two interest rate swaps hedging the Company’s exposure to changes in interest rates with respect to $16.5 million of LIBOR based variable rate debt related to its investment in Crossroads. As of December 31, 2002, ASOF fixed the treasury rate on $30.0 million of contemplated financing in connection with the Brandywine Towne Center acquisition. The Company’s pro-rata share was $6.7 million of notional value based on its 22% interest in ASOF.

Of the Company’s total outstanding debt, $19.6 million will become due by 2004. As the Company intends on refinancing some or all of such debt at the then-existing market interest rates which may be greater than the current interest rate, the Company’s interest expense would increase by approximately $196,000 annually if the interest rate on the refinanced debt increased by 100 basis points. Furthermore, interest expense on the Company’s variable debt as of December 31, 2002 would increase by $572,000 annually for a 100 basis point increase in interest rates. The Company may seek additional variable-rate financing if and when pricing and other commercial and financial terms warrant. As such, the Company would consider hedging against the interest rate risk related to such additional variable-rate debt through interest rate swaps and protection agreements, or other means.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS
To the Shareholders and Trustees of Acadia Realty Trust
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Acadia Realty Trust and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2002 and 2001, and the related consolidated statements of income, shareholders’ equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2002. Our audits also included the financial statement schedule listed in the Index at Item 15(a). These financial statements and the schedule are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and schedule based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Acadia Realty Trust and subsidiaries at December 31, 2002 and 2001, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2002 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Also, in our opinion, the related financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein.
As discussed in the Notes to the consolidated financial statements, in 2002, the Company adopted the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets” and No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation–Transition and Disclosure”.

ACADIA REALTY TRUST AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2002
(In thousands, except per share amounts)
1. Organization, Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Acadia Realty Trust (the “Company”) is a fully integrated and self-managed real estate investment trust (“REIT”) which specializes in the acquisition, redevelopment and operation of shopping centers which are anchored by grocery and value-oriented retail.
All of the Company’s assets are held by, and all of its operations are conducted through, Acadia Realty Limited Partnership (the “Operating Partnership”) and its majority owned partnerships. As of December 31, 2002, the Company controlled 89% of the Operating Partnership as the sole general partner. As the general partner, the Company is entitled to share, in proportion to its percentage interest, in the cash distributions and profits and losses of the Operating Partnership. The limited partners represent entities or individuals who contributed their interests in certain properties or partnerships to the Operating Partnership in exchange for common or preferred units of limited partnership interest (“Common or Preferred OP Units”). Limited partners holding Common OP Units are generally entitled to exchange their units on a one-for-one basis for common shares of beneficial interest of the Company (“Common Shares”). This structure is commonly referred to as an umbrella partnership REIT or “UPREIT”.
On August 12, 1998, the Company completed a major reorganization (“RDC Transaction”) in which it acquired twelve shopping centers, five multi-family properties and a 49% interest in one shopping center along with certain third party management contracts and promissory notes from real estate investment partnerships (“RDC Funds”) managed by affiliates of RD Capital, Inc. In exchange for these and a cash investment of $100,000, the Company issued 11.1 million Common OP Units and 15.3 million Common Shares to the RDC Funds. After giving effect to the conversion of the Common OP Units, the RDC Funds beneficially owned 72% of the Common Shares as of the closing of the RDC Transaction. Subsequent to December 31, 2002, the Company issued OP Units and cash valued at $2,750 to certain limited partners in connection with an obligation from the RDC Transaction. The payment was due upon the commencement of rental payments from a designated tenant at one of the properties acquired in the RDC Transaction.
As of December 31, 2002, the Company operated 35 properties, which it owned or had an ownership interest in, consisting of 32 neighborhood and community shopping centers, one enclosed shopping mall and two multi-family properties, all of which are located in the Eastern and Midwestern regions of the United States.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the consolidated accounts of the Company and its majority owned partnerships, including the Operating Partnership. Non-controlling investments in partnerships are accounted for under the equity method of accounting as the Company exercises significant influence.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Properties
Real estate assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Expenditures for acquisition, development, construction and improvement of properties, as well as significant renovations are capitalized. Interest costs are capitalized until construction is substantially complete. Construction in progress includes costs for significant shopping center expansion and redevelopment. Depreciation is computed on the straight-line basis over estimated useful lives of 30 to 40 years for buildings and the shorter of the useful life or lease term for improvements, furniture, fixtures and equipment. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred.
Effective January 1, 2002, the Company adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 144 as further described in this note under “Recent Accounting Pronouncements”. The Company reviews its long-lived assets used in operations for impairment when there is an event, or change in circumstances that indicates impairment in value. The Company records impairment losses and reduces the carrying value of properties when indicators of impairment are present and the expected undiscounted cash flows related to those properties are less than their carrying amounts. In cases where the Company does not expect to recover its carrying costs on properties held for use, the Company reduces its carrying cost to fair value, and for properties held for sale, the Company reduces its carrying value to the fair value less costs to sell. During the year ended December 31, 2002, an impairment loss of $197 was recognized related to a property that was sold as of December 31, 2002. For the year ended December 31, 2001, an impairment loss of $14,756 was recognized related to a property sold subsequent to December 31, 2001. In addition, an impairment loss of $1,130 was recognized related to a shopping center that was held for sale as of December 31, 2001. Management does not believe that the value of the remaining properties held for sale or properties in use are impaired as of December 31, 2002.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. Organization, Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, continued
Deferred Costs
Fees and costs paid in the successful negotiation of leases have been deferred and are being amortized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the respective leases. Fees and costs incurred in connection with obtaining financing have been deferred and are being amortized over the term of the related debt obligation.
Revenue Recognition
Leases with tenants are accounted for as operating leases. Minimum rents are recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the respective leases. As of December 31, 2002 and 2001, unbilled rents receivable relating to straight-lining of rents were $5,302 and $4,828, respectively.
Percentage rents are recognized in the period when the tenant sales breakpoint is met.
Reimbursements from tenants for real estate taxes, insurance and other property operating expenses are recognized as revenue in the period the expenses are incurred.
An allowance for doubtful accounts has been provided against certain tenant accounts receivable that are estimated to be uncollectible. Rents receivable at December 31, 2002 and 2001 are shown net of an allowance for doubtful accounts of $2,284 and $2,376, respectively.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.
Cash in Escrow
Cash in escrow consists principally of cash held for real estate taxes, property maintenance, insurance, minimum occupancy and property operating income requirements at specific properties as required by certain loan agreements.
Income Taxes
The Company has made an election to be taxed, and believes it qualifies as a REIT under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. A REIT will generally not be subject to Federal income taxation on that portion of its income that qualifies as REIT taxable income to the extent that it distributes at least 90% of its taxable income to its shareholders and complies with certain other requirements. Accordingly, no provision has been made for Federal income taxes for the Company in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. The Company is subject to state income or franchise taxes in certain states in which some of its properties are located. These state taxes, which in total are not significant, are included in general and administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In October, 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 144 “Accounting for the Impairment and Disposal of Long-Lived Assets” (“SFAS No. 144”), which supercedes SFAS No. 121, “Accounting for the Impairment of Long Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of”. It also supercedes the accounting and reporting provisions of APB Opinion No. 30, “Reporting the Effects of Disposal of a Segment of a Business, and Extraordinary, Unusual and Infrequently Occurring Events and Transactions”. SFAS No. 144 retains the fundamental provisions of SFAS No. 121 for (a) recognition and measurement of the impairment of long-lived assets to be held and used and (b) measurement of long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale, but broadens the definition of what constitutes a discontinued operation and how the results of a discontinued operation are to be measured and presented. The Company adopted this statement on January 1, 2002.
In April 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 145, “Rescission of FASB Statements No. 4, 44, and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections” (“SFAS No. 145”). This statement eliminates the requirement to report gains and losses from extinguishment of debt as extraordinary unless they meet the criteria of APB Opinion 30. SFAS No. 145 also requires sale-leaseback accounting for certain lease modifications that have economic effects that are similar to sale-leaseback transactions. The changes related to lease accounting are effective for transactions occurring after May 15, 2002 and the changes related to debt extinguishment are effective for fiscal years beginning after May 15, 2002. The impact of adopting the provisions related to lease accounting did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations. The impact of adopting the provisions related to debt extinguishment is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements, continued
In June 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, “Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities” (“SFAS No. 146”). SFAS No. 146 nullifies Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 94-3 and requires that a liability for a cost associated with an exit or disposal activity be recognized when the liability is incurred. This statement also establishes that fair value is the objective for initial measurement of the liability. SFAS No. 146 is effective for exit or disposal activities that are initiated after December 31, 2002. The impact of the adoption of SFAS No. 146 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.
In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation – Transition and Disclosure, an amendment of FASB Statement No. 123” (“SFAS No. 148”). SFAS No. 148 amends SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” to provide alternative methods of transition for an entity that voluntarily changes to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. It also amends the disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 123 to require prominent disclosure about the effects on reported net income of an entity’s accounting policy decisions with respect to stock-based employee compensation. Effective January 1, 2002, the Company adopted the fair value method of recording stock-based compensation contained in SFAS No. 123. As such, all vested stock options granted after December 31, 2001 will be reflected as compensation expense in the Company’s c onsolidated financial statements over the vesting period based on the fair value at t he date the stock-based compensation was granted. Under SFAS No. 123, companies may elect to choose from three alternative transition methods as it relates to the adoption of the fair value basis method of accounting for employee stock options. The Company has elected the prospective method whereby compensation expense will be recognized only for those options issued after December 31, 2001.
The following table illustrates the effect on net income and earnings per share if the Company had applied the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation for vested stock options granted prior to January 1, 2002. See note 11 – “Share Incentive Plan” for the assumptions utilized in valuing the vested stock options:

In November 2002, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 45, “Guarantor’s Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others” (“FIN 45”). FIN 45 requires that upon issuance of a guarantee a guarantor must recognize a liability for the fair value of an obligation assumed under a guarantee. FIN 45 also requires additional disclosures by a guarantor in its interim and annual financial statements about the obligations associated with guarantees issued. The recognition provisions of FIN 45 are effective for any guarantees issued or modified after December 31, 2002. The disclosure requirements are effective for financial statements of interim or annual periods ending after December 15, 2002. The Company is currently evaluating the effects of the recognition provision of FIN 45, but does not expect the adoption to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.
In January 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 46 “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities” (“FIN 46”). In general, a variable interest entity is a corporation, partnership, trust, or any other legal structure used for business purposes that either (a) does not have equity investors with voting rights or (b) has equity investors that do not provide sufficient financial resources for the entity to support its activities. A variable interest entity often holds financial assets, including loans or receivables, real estate or other property. A variable interest entity may be essentially passive or it may engage in activities on behalf of another company. Until now, a company generally has included another entity in its consolidated financial statements only if it controlled the entity through voting interests. FIN 46 changes that by requiring a variable interest entity to be consolidated by a company if that company is subject to a majority of the risk of loss from the variable interest entity’s activities or entitled to receive a majority of the entity’s residual returns or both. FIN 46’s consolidation requirements apply immediately to variable interest entities created or acquired after January 31, 2003. The consolidation requirements apply to older entities in the first fiscal year or interim period beginning after June 15, 2003.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements, continued
Certain of the disclosure requirements apply in all financial statements issued after January 31, 2003, regardless of when the variable interest entity was established. The Company has adopted FIN 46 effective January 31, 2003. The Company does not anticipate that the adoption of FIN 46 will have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial condition or results of operations taken as a whole. The Company’s interests in joint ventures are summarized in note 4.
Comprehensive income
Comprehensive income for the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001 totaled $13,731 and $8,596, respectively, and was comprised of net income of $19,399 and $9,802, respectively, and other comprehensive loss related to the changes in the fair value of derivative instruments of $5,668 and $1,206, respectively. For the year ended December 31, 2000, the Company had no items of other comprehensive income requiring additional disclosure. The following table sets forth the change in accumulated other comprehensive loss for the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001:

Reclassifications
Certain 2001 and 2000 amounts were reclassified to conform to the 2002 presentation.
2. Acquisition and Disposition of Properties
A significant component of the Company’s business plan has been the disposition of non-core real estate assets. Under this initiative, the Company sold a total of two apartment complexes and 23 shopping centers during 2002, 2001 and 2000.
Dispositions relate to the sale of shopping centers, multi-family properties and land. Gains from these sales are generally recognized using the full accrual method in accordance with SFAS No. 66, “ Accounting for Sales of Real Estate”, providing that certain criteria relating to the terms of sale are met.
Consistent with SFAS No. 144, the results of operations of sold properties is reported separately as discontinued operations for the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000. Revenues from discontinued operations for the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000 totaled $6,295, $24,178 and $33,308, respectively. Assets and liabilities of the sold properties have been classified separately in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2001 and are summarized in the following table:

2002 Acquisitions and Dispositions
On November 8, 2002, the Company and an unaffiliated joint venture partner completed the sale of a contract to purchase land in Bethel, Connecticut, to the Target Corporation for $1,540 after closing and other related costs. The joint venture received a $1,632 note receivable for the net purchase price and additional reimbursements due from the buyer, which was paid in full subsequent to December 31, 2002. As of December 31, 2002, the Company had deferred the gain of $1,212 pending collection on the note.
On October 11, 2002, the Company sold the Manahawkin Village Shopping Center and Valmont Plaza for $16,825 to a single unaffiliated buyer. The Company received two purchase money notes in connection with the sale. The first for $11,000 was repaid in full on November 8, 2002. The second for $1,600, matures October 11, 2003, requires monthly interest of 5% to February 1, 2003, and 10% thereafter. As part of the transaction, the Company repaid $3,084 of mortgage debt secured by the Valmont Plaza. The $4,049 of mortgage debt secured by the Manahawkin Village Shopping Center was repaid in full on September 27, 2002, prior to the sale. The Company recorded a $166 gain on the sale.
On April 24, 2002, the Company sold a multi-property portfolio for $52,700. The portfolio consists of 17 retail properties, which are cross-collateralized in a securitized loan program and in the aggregate contain approximately 2.3 million square feet. As part of the transaction, the buyer assumed the outstanding mortgage debt of $42,438. The Company retained a senior, preferred interest in the acquiring entity in the amount of $6,262, which earned an initial annual preferred return of 15%. On December 31, 2002, the Company’s interest was purchased at par by an affiliate of the purchaser of the portfolio. The Company recorded an $8,134 gain on the sale.
On January 16, 2002, the Company sold Union Plaza, a 218,000 square foot shopping center located in New Castle, Pennsylvania, for $4,750. The Company received a $3,563 purchase money note. The note, which matures January 15, 2005, requires monthly interest of 7% for year one, increasing at a rate of 1% per annum throughout the term. As part of the transaction, the Company agreed to reimburse the purchaser 50% of a former tenant’s rent, or $22 a month, for a period of 18 months. The Company recorded a loss of $166 on the sale.
On January 10, 2002, the Company and an unaffiliated joint venture partner purchased a three-acre site located in the Bronx, New York, for $3,109. Simultaneously, the joint venture sold approximately 46% of the land to a self-storage facility for $3,300, recognizing a $1,530 gain on the sale of which the Company’s share was $957. The joint venture currently plans to develop the remaining parcel.
2001 Dispositions

2001 Dispositions, continued
On October 4, 2001, the Company sold the Tioga West shopping center, a 122,000 square foot shopping center located in Tunkhannock, Pennsylvania, for $3,200 resulting in a $908 gain on the sale.
On August 27, 2001 the Company sold the Wesmark Plaza, a 207,000 square foot shopping center located in Sumter, South Carolina, for $5,750, recognizing a $1,245 gain on the sale.
The Company sold its interest in the Marley Run Apartments for $27,400 on May 15, 2001, recognizing a $7,035 gain on the sale. Net proceeds from the sale were used to redeem 680,667 Common OP Units at $7.00 per unit. The redemption price represented a premium of $0.35 over the market price of the Company’s Common Shares as of the redemption date. These redeemed Common OP Units were held by the original owners of the property who contributed it to the Company in connection with the RDC Transaction. Pursuant to the RDC Transaction, the Company agreed to indemnify the Common OP Unit holders for any income taxes recognized with respect to a disposition of the property within five years following the contribution of the property. As part of the redemption as discussed above, the Common OP Unit holders waived their rights to this tax reimbursement, which the Company estimated to be in excess of $2.00 per Common OP Unit.
2000 Dispositions
On December 14, 2000, the Company sold the Northwood Centre, located in Tallahassee, Florida, for $31,500 resulting in a $15,616 gain on the sale.

On August 25, 2000, the Company sold 13 acres at the Union Plaza, located in New Castle, Pennsylvania, for $1,900 resulting in an $839 loss on the sale.
3. Segment Reporting
The Company has two reportable segments: retail properties and multi-family properties. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. The Company evaluates property performance primarily based on net operating income before depreciation, amortization and certain nonrecurring items. The reportable segments are managed separately due to the differing nature of the leases and property operations associated with the retail versus residential tenants. The following table sets forth certain segment information for the Company, reclassified for discontinued operations, as of and for the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001, and 2000 (does not include unconsolidated partnerships):

7. Shareholders’ Equity and Minority Interests
Common Shares
In February 2002, the Company completed a “modified Dutch Auction” tender offer (the “Tender Offer”) whereby the Company purchased 5,523,974 Common Shares, comprised of 4,136,321 Common Shares and 1,387,653 Common OP Units converted to Common Shares, at a purchase price of $6.05. The aggregate purchase price paid was $33,400.
In February 2002, the Board of Trustees voted to permit Yale University (“Yale”) to acquire 2,266,667 additional Common Shares from the Howard Hughes Medical Institute by granting a conditional waiver of the provision in the Company’s Declaration of Trust that prohibits ownership positions in excess of 4% of the Company. The waiver was limited to this particular transaction. Following this, Yale owned 8,421,759 Common Shares, or 34% of the Company’s outstanding Common Shares. Additionally, as a condition to approving the waiver, Yale agreed to establish a voting trust whereby all shares owned by Yale University in excess of 30% of the Company’s outstanding Common Shares, will be voted in the same proportion as all other shares voted, excluding Yale.
As of December 31, 2002, in addition to the Common Shares purchased in connection with the Tender Offer, the Company had repurchased 1,931,682 Common Shares (net of 119,923 Common Shares reissued) at a total cost of $11,001 under the expanded share repurchase program that allows for the repurchase of up to $20,000 of the Company’s outstanding Common Shares. The repurchased shares are reflected as a reduction of par value and additional paid-in capital.
Minority Interests
Minority interest in Operating Partnership represents the limited partners’ interest of 3,162,980 and 5,249,717 units in the Operating Partnership (“Common OP Units”) at December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively, and 2,212 units of preferred limited partnership interests designated as Series A Preferred Units (“Preferred OP Units”) issued November 16, 1999 in connection with the acquisition of all the partnership interests of the limited partnership which owns the Pacesetter Park Shopping Center.
The Preferred OP Units, which have a stated value of $1,000 each, are entitled to a quarterly preferred distribution of the greater of (i) $22.50 (9% annually) per Preferred OP Unit or (ii) the quarterly distribution attributable to a Preferred OP Unit if such unit were converted into a Common OP Unit. The Preferred OP Units are currently convertible into Common OP Units based on the stated value divided by $7.50. After the seventh anniversary following their issuance, either the Company or the holders can call for the conversion of the Preferred OP Units at the lesser of $7.50 or the market price of the Common Shares as of the conversion date.
During 2002, various limited partners converted a total of 699,084 Common OP Units into Common Shares on a one-for-one basis.
Minority interests at December 31, 2002 and 2001 also include an aggregate amount of $2,380 and $1,429 respectively, which represent third party interests in three of the properties in which the Company has a majority ownership position.

8. Related Party Transactions
The Company currently manages one property in which a shareholder of the Company has an ownership interest for which the Company earns a management fee of 3% of tenant collections. In each of 2001 and 2000, the Company terminated contracts to manage a property owned by related parties that earned fees of 3.25% and 3.5% of tenant collections, respectively. Management fees earned by the Company under these contracts aggregated $229, $391, and $853 for the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000 respectively, and are included in other revenues in the accompanying consolidated statements of income.
The Company also earns certain management and service fees in connection with its investment in ASOF (note 4). Such fees earned by the Company aggregated $1,082 and $338 for the year ended December 31, 2002 and 2001 respectively, and are included in other revenues in the accompanying consolidated statements of income.
As of December 31, 2002, the Company was obligated to issue OP Units and cash valued at $2,750 to certain limited partners in connection with the RDC Transaction, The payment was due upon the commencement of rental payments from a designated tenant at one of the properties acquired in the RDC Transaction. Subsequent to December 31, 2002, Mr. Dworman received 34,841 of these OP Units through various affiliated entities.
Included in the Common OP Units converted to Common Shares during 2002, were 5,000 Common OP Units converted by Mr. Dworman who then transferred them to a charitable foundation in accordance with a pre-existing arrangement.
In connection with the Company’s Tender Offer, which was completed in February of 2002, Mr. Dworman tendered and sold 492,271 Common OP Units (after converting these to Common Shares on a one-for-one basis) and 107,729 Common Shares (note 7).
9. Tenant Leases
Space in the shopping centers and other retail properties is leased to various tenants under operating leases that usually grant tenants renewal options and generally provide for additional rents based on certain operating expenses as well as tenants’ sales volume.
Minimum future rentals to be received under non-cancelable leases for shopping centers and other retail properties as of December 31, 2002 are summarized as follows:
2003 | | $ | 40,975 | |
2004 | | | 38,717 | |
2005 | | | 33,934 | |
2006 | | | 31,205 | |
2007 | | | 27,996 | |
Thereafter | | | 178,974 | |
| |
|
| |
| | $ | 351,801 | |
| |
|
| |
Minimum future rentals above include a total of $21,452 for two tenants (with 6 leases), which have filed for bankruptcy protection. None of these leases have been rejected nor affirmed. During the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000, no single tenant collectively accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s total revenues.
10. Lease Obligations
The Company leases land at three of its shopping centers, which are accounted for as operating leases and generally provide the Company with renewal options. The leases terminate during the years 2020 to 2066. One of these leases provides the Company with options to renew for additional terms aggregating from 20 to 44 years. Future minimum rental payments required for leases having remaining non-cancelable lease terms are as follows:
2003 | | $ | 522 | |
2004 | | | 562 | |
2005 | | | 562 | |

11. Share Incentive Plan
During 1999, the Company adopted the 1999 Share Incentive Plan (the “1999 Plan”), which replaced both the 1994 Share Option Plan and the 1994 Non-Employee Trustees’ Share Option Plan. The 1999 Plan authorizes the issuance of options equal to up to 8% of the total Common Shares outstanding from time to time on a fully diluted basis. However, not more than 4,000,000 of the Common Shares in the aggregate may be issued pursuant to the exercise of options and no participant may receive more than 5,000,000 Common Shares during the term of the 1999 Plan. Options are granted by the Share Option Plan Committee (the “Committee”), which currently consists of two non-employee Trustees, and will not have an exercise price less than 100% of the fair market value of the Common shares and a term of greater than ten years at the grant date. Vesting of options is at the discretion of the Committee with the exception of options granted to non-employee Trustees, which vest in five equal annual installments beginning on the date of grant. Pursuant to the 1999 Plan, non-employee Trustees receive an automatic grant of 1,000 options following each Annual Meeting of Shareholders. As of December 31, 2002, the Company has issued 2,453,400 options to officers and employees, which are for ten-year terms and vest in three equal annual installments beginning on the grant date. In addition, 19,000 options have been issued to non-employee Trustees.
The 1999 Plan also provides for the granting of Share Appreciation Rights, Restricted Shares and Performance Units/Shares. Share Appreciation Rights provide for the participant to receive, upon exercise, cash and/or Common Shares, at the discretion of the committee, equal to in value to the excess of the option exercise price over the fair market value of the Common Shares at the exercise date. The Committee will determine the award and restrictions placed on Restricted Shares, including the dividends thereon and the term of such restrictions. The Committee also determines the award and vesting of Performance Units and Performance Shares based on the attainment of specified performance objectives of the Company within a specified performance period. For the year ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, the Company has issued 37,110 and 84,063 Restricted Shares, respectively, to employees, which vest equally over three years. No awards of Restricted Shares were granted for the year ended December 31, 2002. During the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000, the Company recognized compensation expenses of $121, $121 and $61, respectively, in connection with Restricted Share grants. No awards of Share Appreciation Rights or Performance Units/Shares were granted for the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000.
Effective January 1, 2002, the Company adopted the fair value method of recording stock-based compensation contained in SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation”. As such, all vested stock option grants granted after December 31, 2001 will be expensed in the accompanying consolidated financial statements over the vesting period based on the fair value at the date the stock-based compensation was granted. Prior to January 1, 2002, the Company had applied the intrinsic value method permitted under SFAS No. 123, as defined in Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” and related Interpretations, in accounting for stock-based compensation plans. Accordingly, no compensation expense has been recognized in the accompanying consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2001 and 2000 related to the issuance of stock options because the exercise price of the Company’s employee stock options equaled or exceeded the market price of the underlying stock on the date of grant. Under SFAS No. 148, companies may elect to choose from three alternative transition methods as it relates to the adoption of the fair value basis method of accounting for employee stock options. The Company has elected the prospective method whereby compensation expense will be recognized only for those options issued on or after January 1, 2002. See note 1 – “Recent Accounting Pronouncements” for additional discussion related to SFAS No. 148 and the Company’s adoption of the fair value method of recording stock-based compensation pursuant to SFAS No. 123.
The Company has used the Black-Scholes option-pricing model for purposes of estimating the fair value in determining compensation expense for options granted for the year ended December 31, 2002. The Company has also used this model for the pro forma information regarding net income and earnings per share as required by SFAS No. 123 for options issued for the years ended December 31, 2001 and 2000 as if the Company had also accounted for these employee stock options under the fair value method. The fair value for the options issued by the Company was estimated at the date of the grant using the following weighted-average assumptions:

Fair Value of Financial Instruments, continued
Cash and Cash Equivalents, Cash in Escrow, Rents Receivable, Notes Receivable, Prepaid Expenses, Other Assets, Accounts Payable and Accrued Expenses, Dividends and Distributions Payable, Due to Related Parties and Other Liabilities – The carrying amount of these assets and liabilities approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of such accounts.
Derivative Instruments – The fair value of these instruments is based upon the estimated amounts the Company would receive or pay to terminate the contracts as of December 31, 2002 and 2001 and is determined using interest rate market pricing models.
Mortgage Notes Payable – As of December 31, 2002 and 2001, the Company has determined the estimated fair value of its mortgage notes payable are approximately $208,083 and $214,970, respectively, by discounting future cash payments utilizing a discount rate equivalent to the rate at which similar mortgage notes payable would be originated under conditions then existing.
Interest Rate Hedges
On January 1, 2001, the Company adopted SFAS No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities”, as amended by SFAS No. 138, “Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities”. In connection with the adoption of SFAS No. 133, the Company recorded a transition adjustment of $149 related to the January 1, 2001 valuation of two LIBOR interest rate caps that hedged $23,203 of variable-rate mortgage debt. This adjustment is reflected as a cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle in the accompanying consolidated statements of income.
On December 6, 2002, ASOF completed a forward interest rate lock agreement on $30,000 of anticipated mortgage debt in connection with the pending acquisition of the Brandywine Town Center (note 19). The Company’s effective pro rata share is 22% of this instrument.
In June of 2002, the Company completed two interest rate swap transactions (“Swap Agreements”) to hedge the Company’s exposure to changes in interest rates with respect to $25,047 of LIBOR based variable rate debt. The Swap Agreements, which are for $15,885 and $9,162 of notional principal, mature on January 1, 2007 and June 1, 2007, respectively. These Swap Agreements are at a weighted average fixed interest rate of 6.2%.
On July 10, 2002, the Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement to hedge its exposure to changes in interest rates with respect to $12,288 of LIBOR based variable rate debt. The swap agreement, which matures on January 1, 2007, provides for a fixed all-in interest rate of 4.1%.
During 2001, the Company completed two interest rate swap transactions to hedge the Company’s exposure to changes to interest rates with respect to $50,000 of LIBOR based variable rate debt. The first swap agreement, which extends through April 1, 2005, provides for a fixed all-in rate of 6.55% on $30,000 of notional principal. The second swap agreement, which extends through October 1, 2006, provides for a fixed all-in rate of 6.28% on $20,000 of notional principal.
The Company is also a party to two swap agreements with a bank through its 49% interest in Crossroads (note 4). These swap agreements effectively fix the interest rate on the Company’s pro rata share, or $16,725, of the joint venture mortgage debt.
The following table summarizes the notional values and fair values of the Company’s derivative financial instruments as of December 31, 2002. The notional value does not represent exposure to credit, interest rate or market risks.

14. Financial Instruments, continued
Interest Rate Hedges, continued
As of December 31, 2002, the derivative instruments were reported at their fair value as derivative instruments of $5,470 and as a reduction of investments in unconsolidated partnerships of $2,442. As of December 31, 2002, unrealized losses totaling $7,735 represented the fair value of the aforementioned derivatives, of which $6,874 was reflected in accumulated other comprehensive loss and $861 as a reduction of minority interest in Operating Partnership. For the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001, the Company recorded an unrealized loss of $122 and $54, respectively, due to partial ineffectiveness on one of the swaps. The ineffectiveness resulted from differences between the derivative notional and the principal amount of the hedged variable rate debt.
The Company’s interest rate hedges are designated as cash flow hedges and hedge the future cash outflows on mortgage debt. Interest rate swaps that convert variable payments to fixed payments, such as those held by the Company, as well as interest rate caps, floors, collars, and forwards are cash flow hedges. The unrealized gains and losses in the fair value of these hedges are reported on the balance sheet with a corresponding adjustment to either accumulated other comprehensive income or earnings depending on the type of hedging relationship. For cash flow hedges, offsetting gains and losses are reported in accumulated other comprehensive income. Over time, the unrealized gains and losses held in accumulated other comprehensive income will be reclassified to earnings. This reclassification occurs over the same time period in which the hedged items affect earnings. Within the next twelve months, the Company expects to reclassify to earnings as interest expense approximately $3,500 of the current balance held in accumulated other comprehensive loss.
15. Earnings Per Common Share
Basic earnings per share was determined by dividing the applicable net income to common shareholders for the year by the weighted average number of Common Shares outstanding during each year consistent with SFAS No. 128. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue Common Shares were exercised or converted into Common Shares or resulted in the issuance of Common Shares that then shared in the earnings of the Company. The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share from continuing operations for the periods indicated. For the years ended December 31, 2001 and 2000 no additional shares were reflected as the impact would be anti- dilutive in such years.

The effect of the conversion of Common OP Units is not reflected in the above table as they are exchangeable for Common Shares on a one-for-one basis. The income allocable to such units is allocated on this same basis and reflected as minority interest in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. As such, the assumed conversion of these units would have no net impact on the determination of diluted earnings per share.

17. Commitments and Contingencies
Under various Federal, state and local laws, ordinances and regulations relating to the protection of the environment, a current or previous owner or operator of real estate may be liable for the cost of removal or remediation of certain hazardous or toxic substances disposed, stored, generated, released, manufactured or discharged from, on, at, under, or in a property. As such, the Company may be potentially liable for costs associated with any potential environmental remediation at any of its formerly or currently owned properties.
The Company conducts Phase I environmental reviews with respect to properties it acquires. These reviews include an investigation for the presence of asbestos, underground storage tanks and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs). Although such reviews are intended to evaluate the environmental condition of the subject property as well as surrounding properties, there can be no assurance that the review conducted by the Company will be adequate to identify environmental or other problems that may exist. Where a Phase I assessment so recommended, a Phase II assessment was conducted to further determine the extent of possible environmental contamination. In all instances where a Phase I or II assessment has resulted in specific recommendations for remedial actions, the Company has either taken or scheduled the recommended remedial action. To mitigate unknown risks, the Company has obtained environmental insurance for most of its properties, wh ich covers only unknown environmental risks.
The Company believes that it is in compliance in all material respects with all Federal, state and local ordinances and regulations regarding hazardous or toxic substances. Management is not aware of any environmental liability that they believe would have a material adverse impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations. Management is unaware of any instances in which it would incur significant environmental costs if any or all properties were sold, disposed of or abandoned. However, there can be no assurance that any such non-compliance, liability, claim or expenditure will not arise in the future.
The Company is involved in various matters of litigation arising in the normal course of business. While the Company is unable to predict with certainty the amounts involved, the Company’s management and counsel are of the opinion that, when such litigation is resolved, the Company’s resulting liability, if any, will not have a significant effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.
18. Extraordinary Item – Loss on Early Extinguishment of Debt
The consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2001 includes the write-off of $140 in net deferred financing fees as a result of the repayment of the related mortgage debt.
19. Subsequent Events
In January 2003, ASOF, in which the Company owns a 22% interest and an unaffiliated joint venture party, acquired a one million square foot supermarket portfolio consisting of twenty-five anchor only leases with either Kroger or Safeway supermarkets. The portfolio was acquired through long-term ground leases with terms, including renewal options, averaging in excess of 80 years, which are master leased to a non-affiliated entity. The purchase price of $47,874 (inclusive of closing and other related acquisition costs) included the assumption of $34,450 of existing fixed-rate debt which bears interest at a weighted-average rate of 6.6%. The mortgage debt fully amortizes over the next seven years, which is coterminous with the primary lease term of the supermarket leases. ASOF invested $11,250 of the equity capitalization of which the Company’s share was $2,500.
In January 2003, ASOF acquired a one million square foot portfolio for an initial purchase price of $89,287, inclusive of closing and other related acquisition costs. The portfolio consists of two shopping centers located in Wilmington, Delaware. A portion of one of the properties is currently unoccupied for which ASOF will pay for on an “earnout” basis only when it is leased. At closing, ASOF assumed $38,082 of fixed-rate debt which bears interest at a weighted average rate of 6.2% as well as obtained an additional fixed-rate loan of $30,000 which bears interest at 4.7%. ASOF invested equity of $19,270 in the acquisition, of which the Company’s share was $4,282.
