DUKE-WEEKS REALTY LIMITED PARTNERSHIP
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
1. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The interim condensed consolidated financial statements included
herein have been prepared by Duke-Weeks Realty Limited Partnership
(the "Partnership") without audit. The statements have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles for interim financial information and the instructions
for Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they
do not include all of the information and footnotes required by
generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial
statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments
(consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary
for a fair presentation have been included. These financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated
financial statements and notes thereto included in the
Partnership's Annual Financial Statements.
THE PARTNERSHIP
The Partnership was formed on October 4, 1993, when the General
Partner contributed all of its properties and related assets and
liabilities along with the net proceeds from the issuance of an
additional 14,000,833 units through a common stock offering to the
Partnership. Simultaneously, the Partnership completed the
acquisition of Duke Associates, a full-service commercial real
estate firm operating in the Midwest. The General Partner was
formed in 1985 and qualifies as a real estate investment trust
under provisions of the Internal Revenue Code. The General Partner
is the sole general partner of the Partnership and owns 86.9% of
the Partnership at June 30, 2000. The remaining limited partnership
interest ("Limited Partner Units") (together with the units of
general partner interests, the ("Common Units")) are mainly owned
by the previous partners of Duke Associates. The Limited Partner
Units are exchangeable for units of the General Partner's common
stock on a one-for-one basis subject generally to a one-year
holding period. The General Partner periodically acquires a portion
of the minority interest in the Partnership through the issuance of
units of common stock for a like number of Common Units. The
acquisition of the minority interest is accounted for under the
purchase method with assets acquired recorded at the fair market
value of the General Partner's common stock on the date of
acquisition.
The service operations are conducted through Duke Realty Services
Limited Partnership and Duke Construction Limited Partnership, in
which the Partnership has an 89% profits interest (after certain
preferred returns on partners' capital accounts) and effective
control of their operations. The consolidated financial statements
include the accounts of the Partnership and its majority-owned or
controlled subsidiaries. The equity interests in these majority-
owned or controlled subsidiaries not owned by the Partnership are
reflected as minority interests in the consolidated financial
statements.
- 6 -
2. LINES OF CREDIT
The Partnership has the following lines of credit available:
Borrowing Outstanding
Capacity Maturity Interest at June 30, 2000
Description (in 000's) Date Rate (in 000's)
------------------------ ---------- ---------- ----------- ----------------
Unsecured Line of Credit $450,000 April 2001 LIBOR + .70% $428,000
Unsecured Line of Credit $300,000 June 2001 LIBOR + .90% $ 35,000
Secured Line of Credit $150,000 January 2003 LIBOR + 1.05% $ 40,228
The lines of credit are used to fund development and acquisition of
additional rental properties and to provide working capital.
The $450 million line of credit allows the Partnership an option to
obtain borrowings from the financial institutions that participate
in the line of credit at rates lower than the stated interest rate,
subject to certain restrictions. Amounts outstanding on the line of
credit at June 30, 2000, are at LIBOR + .57 to .70%.
3. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
The Partnership provides management, maintenance, leasing,
construction, and other tenant related services to properties in
which certain executive officers have continuing ownership
interests. The Partnership was paid fees totaling $993,000 and $1.4
million for such services for the six months ended June 30, 2000
and 1999, respectively. Management believes the terms for such
services are equivalent to those available in the market. The
Partnership has an option to purchase the executive officers'
interest in each of these properties which expires October 2003.
The option price of each property was established at the date the
option was granted.
At June 30, 2000, other assets included outstanding loan advances
totaling $2.4 million due from a related party, under a $5.7
million demand loan agreement. The loan bears interest at LIBOR
plus 2.10% and is secured by real estate assets held by the related
entity, for which the Partnership has arrangements to acquire in
future periods. Interest earned under the agreement and included in
the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations
totaled $121,764 in the six months ended June 30, 2000.
4. NET INCOME PER COMMON UNIT
Basic net income per common unit is computed by dividing net income
available for common unitholders by the weighted average number of
common units outstanding for the period. Diluted net income per unit
is computed by dividing net income available for common unitholders
by the sum of the weighted average number of common units and
dilutive potential common units outstanding for the period.
The following table reconciles the components of basic and diluted
net income per common unit for the three and six months ended June
30:

Weighted average number of
common units and dilutive

======= ====== ======= ======
The Preferred D Series Convertible equity and the Series G preferred
limited partner units were anti-dilutive at June 30, 2000; therefore,
no conversion to common units is included in weighted dilutive potential
common units outstanding.
5. SEGMENT REPORTING
The Partnership is engaged in four operating segments; the
ownership and rental of office, industrial and retail real estate
investments and the providing of various real estate services such
as property management, maintenance, leasing, development and construction
management to third-party property owners ("Service Operations").
The Partnership's reportable segments offer different products or
services and are managed separately because each requires different
operating strategies and management expertise. There are no
material intersegment sales or transfers.
Non-segment revenue to reconcile to total revenue consists mainly
of equity in earnings of unconsolidated companies. Non-segment
assets to reconcile to total assets consist of corporate assets
including cash, deferred financing costs and investments in
unconsolidated companies.
The Partnership assesses and measures segment operating results
based on industry performance measures referred to as Funds From
Operations ("FFO"). The National Association of Real Estate
Investment Trusts defines FFO as net income or loss, excluding
gains or losses from debt restructuring and sales of depreciated
operating property, plus operating property depreciation and
amortization and adjustments for minority interest and
unconsolidated companies on the same basis. FFO is not a measure of
operating results or cash flows from operating activities as
measured by generally accepted accounting principles, is not
necessarily indicative of cash available to fund cash needs and
should not be considered an alternative to cash flows as a measure
of liquidity. Interest expense and other non-property specific
revenues and expenses are not allocated to individual segments in
determining the Partnership's performance measure.
The revenues and FFO for each of the reportable segments for the
three and six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, and the assets
for each of the reportable segments as of June 30, 2000 and
December 31, 1999, are summarized as follows:

6. REAL ESTATE ASSETS HELD FOR SALE
In order to redeploy capital, the Partnership has an active sales
program through which it is continually pursuing favorable opportunities
to dispose of real estate assets that no longer meet long-term investment
objectives of the Partnership. At June 30, 2000, the Partnership had 36
industrial, 10 office and one retail property comprising approximately 6.6
million square feet held for sale. Of these properties, five build-to-suit
office and three build-to-suit industrial properties were under development
at June 30, 2000. Net operating income (defined as total property revenues,
less property expenses, which include real estate taxes, repairs
and maintenance, property management, utilities, insurance and

9. OTHER MATTERS
ACCOUNTING CHANGES
In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Statement No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and for
Hedging Activities," effective for fiscal years beginning after
June 15, 2000. The statement will require the Partnership to
recognize all derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value.
Derivatives that are not hedges must be adjusted to fair value
through income. If the derivative is a hedge, then depending on the
nature of the hedge, changes in the fair value will either be
offset through earnings, against the change in fair value of hedged
assets, liabilities or firm commitments or recognized in other
comprehensive income until the hedged item is recognized in
income. The ineffective portion of a hedge's change in fair value
will be immediately recognized in income. Based on the
information available at this time, the adoption of this statement
is not expected to have a material impact on the Partnership's
financial statements.
RECLASSIFICATIONS
Certain 1999 balances have been reclassified to conform to 2000
presentation.

INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS' REVIEW REPORT
--------------------------------------
The Board of Directors
Duke-Weeks Realty Limited Partnership:
We have reviewed the condensed consolidated balance sheet of Duke-
Weeks Realty Limited Partnership and subsidiaries as of June 30,
2000, the related condensed consolidated statements of operations
for the three months and the six months ended June 30, 2000 and
1999, the related condensed consolidated statements of cash flows
for the six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, and the related
condensed consolidated statement of partners' equity for the six
months ended June 30, 2000. These condensed consolidated financial
statements are the responsibility of the Partnership's management.
We conducted our review in accordance with standards established by
the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A review of
interim financial information consists principally of applying
analytical procedures to financial data and making inquiries of
persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is
substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance
with generally accepted auditing standards, the objective of which
is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements
taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.
Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications
that should be made to the condensed consolidated financial
statements referred to above for them to be in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.
We have previously audited, in accordance with generally accepted
auditing standards, the consolidated balance sheet of Duke-Weeks
Realty Limited Partnership and subsidiaries as of December 31,
1999, and the related consolidated statements of operations,
partners' equity and cash flows for the year then ended (not
presented herein); and in our report dated January 25, 2000, we
expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial
statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the
accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December
31, 1999 is fairly presented, in all material respects, in relation
to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

ITEM 2.MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
OVERVIEW
--------
The Partnership's operating results depend primarily upon income
from the rental operations of its industrial, office and retail
properties located in its primary markets. This income from rental
operations is substantially influenced by the supply and demand for
the Partnership's rental space in its primary markets. In addition,
the Partnership's continued growth is dependent upon its ability to
maintain occupancy rates and increase rental rates of its in-
service portfolio and to continue development and acquisition of
additional rental properties.
The Partnership's primary markets have continued to offer strong
and stable local economies and have provided attractive new
development opportunities because of their central location,
established manufacturing base, skilled work force and moderate
labor costs. The Partnership expects to continue to maintain or increase
its overall occupancy levels and also expects to be able to maintain
rental rates as leases are renewed or new leases are executed. This
combination should improve the Partnership's results of operations
from its in-service properties. The Partnership's strategy for
continued growth also includes developing and acquiring additional
rental properties in its primary markets.
The Partnership tracks Same Property performance which compares
those properties that were in-service for all of a calendar two year
period. The net operating income from the same property portfolio
increased 6.13% for the six months ended June 30, 2000, compared to
the six months ended June 30, 1999.
The following table sets forth information regarding the
Partnership's in-service portfolio of rental properties as of June

Rental Operations
-----------------
Rental Operations revenue increased to $178.4 million from $107.1
million for the three months ended June 30, 2000, compared to the
same period in 1999. This increase is primarily due to the increase
in the number of in-service properties during the respective
periods. As of June 30, 2000, the Partnership had 886 properties in
service compared to 486 properties at June 30, 1999. The following

Rental property, real estate tax and depreciation and amortization
expenses increased for the three months ended June 30, 2000,
compared to the same period in 1999 due to the increase in the
number of in-service properties during the respective periods.
The $19.1 million increase in interest expense is primarily
attributable to higher outstanding debt balances associated with
the financing of the Partnership's investment activities. The
increased balances include $450 million of unsecured debt issued in
1999, the assumption of $185 million of secured debt and $287
million of unsecured debt in the merger with Weeks Corporation in
July 1999, and increased borrowings on the Partnership's lines of
credit. These higher borrowing costs were partially offset by the
capitalization of interest on increased property development
activities.
As a result of the above-mentioned items, earnings from Rental
Operations increased $15.2 million from $39.9 million for the three
months ended June 30, 1999, to $55.1 million for the three months
ended June 30, 2000.
Service Operations
------------------
Service Operations revenues increased by $16.1 million from $8.9
million for the three months ended June 30, 1999, to $25.0 million
for the three months ended June 30, 2000, primarily as a result of
increases in construction and development income from increased
third party construction.
Service Operations operating expenses increased from $5.3 million
for the three months ended June 30, 1999, to $14.1 million for the
three months ended June 30, 2000, primarily due to increases in
payroll and maintenance expenses due to the overall growth of the
Partnership and the increased portfolio of buildings associated
with this growth.
As a result, earnings from Service Operations increased from $3.6
million for the three months ended June 30, 1999, to $11.0 million
for the three months ended June 30, 2000.
- 16 -
Other Income and Expenses
-------------------------
Interest income increased from $546,000 for the three months ended
June 30, 1999, to $2.3 million for the same period in 2000 primarily
through earnings on funds deposited in tax deferred exchange escrows
of $1.6 million.
The Partnership has a disposition strategy to pursue favorable
opportunities to dispose of real estate assets that no longer meet
long-term investment objectives of the Partnership, which resulted
in net sales proceeds of $50.5 million and a net gain of $3.4
million during the three months ended June 30, 2000.
In conjunction with this disposition strategy, included in net real
estate investments are 47 buildings with a net book value of $318.7
million which were classified as held for sale by the Partnership
at June 30, 2000. The Partnership expects to complete these and
other dispositions and use the proceeds to fund future investments
in real estate assets.
Net Income Available for Common Unitholders
-------------------------------------------
Net income available for common unitholders for the three months
ended June 30, 2000, was $52.4 million compared to net income
available for common unitholders of $32.7 million for the three
months ended June 30, 1999. This increase results primarily from
the operating result fluctuations in rental and service operations
explained above.
COMPARISON OF SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2000 TO SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30,

Rental Operations
-----------------
Rental Operations revenue increased to $353.1 million from $209.1
million for the six months ended June 30, 2000, compared to the same
period in 1999. This increase is primarily due to the increase in
the number of in-service properties during the respective periods.
As of June 30, 2000, the Partnership had 886 properties in service
compared to 486 properties at June 30, 1999. The following summary

Rental property, real estate tax and depreciation and amortization
expenses increased for the six months ended June 30, 2000, compared
to the same period in 1999 due to the increase in the number of in-
service properties during the respective periods.
The $35.8 million increase in interest expense is primarily
attributable to higher outstanding debt balances associated with
the financing of the Partnership's investment activities. The
increased balances include $450 million of unsecured debt issued in
1999, the assumption of $185 million of secured debt and $287
million of unsecured debt in the merger with Weeks Corporation in
July 1999, and increased borrowings on the Partnership's lines of
credit. These higher borrowing costs were partially offset by the

As a result of the above-mentioned items, earnings from Rental
Operations increased $34.0 million from $76.0 million for the six
months ended June 30, 1999, to $110.0 million for the six months
ended June 30, 2000.
Service Operations
------------------
Service Operations revenues increased by $17.9 million from $21.2
million for the six months ended June 30, 1999, to $39.1 million for
the six months ended June 30, 2000, primarily as a result of
increases in construction and development income from increased
third party construction.
Service Operations operating expenses increased from $12.5 million
for the six months ended June 30, 1999, to $22.8 million for the
six months ended June 30, 2000, primarily due to increases in
payroll and maintenance expenses due to the overall growth of the
Partnership and the increased portfolio of buildings associated
with this growth.
As a result, earnings from Service Operations increased from $8.6
million for the six months ended June 30, 1999, to $16.3 million
for the six months ended June 30, 2000.
Other Income and Expenses
-------------------------
Interest income increased from $1.1 million for the six months
ended June 30, 1999, to $3.9 million for the same period in 2000
primarily through earnings on funds deposited in tax deferred exchange
escrows of $2.5 million.
The Partnership has a disposition strategy to pursue favorable
opportunities to dispose of real estate assets that no longer meet
long-term investment objectives of the Partnership, which resulted
in net sales proceeds of $214.3 million and a net gain of $18.1
million during the six months ended June 30, 2000.
- 18 -
Net Income Available for Common Unitholders
-------------------------------------------
Net income available for common unitholders for the six months
ended June 30, 2000, was $108.7 million compared to net income
available for common unitholders of $63.6 million for the six
months ended June 30, 1999. This increase results primarily from
the operating result fluctuations in rental and service operations
explained above.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Net cash provided by operating activities totaling $174.6 million
and $82.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999,
respectively, represents the primary source of liquidity to fund
distributions to unitholders and the other minority interests and
to fund recurring costs associated with the renovation and re-
letting of the Partnership's properties.
Net cash used by investing activities totaling $258.5 million and
$323.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999,
respectively, represents the investment of funds by the Partnership
to expand its portfolio of rental properties through the
development and acquisition of additional rental properties net of
proceeds received from property sales.
Net cash provided by financing activities totaling $106.8 million
and $401.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999,
respectively, is comprised of debt and equity issuances, net of
distributions to unitholders and minority interests and repayments
of outstanding indebtedness. In the first six months of 2000, the
Partnership received $13.9 million of net proceeds from the General
Partner's issuance of common shares. The Partnership used the net
proceeds to reduce amounts outstanding under the Partnership's
lines of credit and to fund the development and acquisition of
additional rental properties.
In the first six months of 1999, the Partnership received $37.9
million of net proceeds from the General Partner's issuance of
common shares and $96.5 million of net proceeds from the General
Partner's preferred stock offering. The Partnership also issued
$300.0 million of unsecured debt. The Partnership used the net
proceeds to reduce amounts outstanding under the Partnership's lines
of credit and to fund the development and acquisition of additional
rental properties.
The Partnership has the following lines of credit available:
Borrowing Outstanding
Capacity Maturity Interest at June 30, 2000
Description (in 000's) Date Rate (in 000's)
------------------------ ---------- ---------- ----------- ---------------
Unsecured Line of Credit $450,000 April 2001 LIBOR + .70% $428,000
Unsecured Line of Credit $300,000 June 2001 LIBOR + .90% $ 35,000
Secured Line of Credit $150,000 January 2003 LIBOR + 1.05% $ 40,228
The lines of credit are used to fund development and acquisition of
additional rental properties and to provide working capital.
The $450 million line of credit allows the Partnership an option to
obtain borrowings from the financial institutions that participate
in the line of credit at rates lower than the stated interest rate,
subject to certain restrictions. Amounts outstanding on the line of
credit at June 30, 2000 are at LIBOR + .57% to .70%.

The General Partner and the Partnership currently have on file
Form S-3 Registration Statements with the Securities and Exchange
Commission ("Shelf Registrations") which had remaining availability
as of June 30, 2000, of approximately $792.9 million to issue common
stock, preferred stock or unsecured debt securities. The General
Partner and the Partnership intend to issue additional equity or
debt under these Shelf Registrations as capital needs arise to fund
the development and acquisition of additional rental properties.
The General Partner and the Partnership also plan to file
additional shelf registrations as necessary.
The total debt outstanding at June 30, 2000, consists of notes
totaling approximately $2.4 billion with a weighted average
interest rate of 7.33% maturing at various dates through 2028. The
Partnership has $1.8 billion of unsecured debt and $560.0 million
of secured debt outstanding at June 30, 2000. Scheduled principal
amortization of such debt totaled $5.6 million for the six months
ended June 30, 2000.

FUNDS FROM OPERATIONS
Management believes that Funds From Operations ("FFO"), which is
defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment
Trusts as net income or loss excluding gains or losses from debt
restructuring and sales of depreciated operating property, plus
operating depreciation and amortization, and adjustments for
minority interest and unconsolidated companies (adjustments for
minority interest and unconsolidated companies are calculated to
reflect FFO on the same basis), is the industry standard for
reporting the operations of real estate investment trusts.
The following table reflects the calculation of the Partnership's
FFO for the three and six months ended June 30 as follows (in
thousands):

The increase in FFO for the three and six months ended June 30,
2000, compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 1999,
results primarily from the increased in-service rental property
portfolio as discussed above under "Results of Operations."
While management believes that FFO is the most relevant and widely
used measure of the Partnership's operating performance, such
amount does not represent cash flow from operations as defined by
generally accepted accounting principles, should not be considered
as an alternative to net income as an indicator of the
Partnership's operating performance, and is not indicative of cash
available to fund all cash flow needs.
