ACQUISITION OF ASSETS. On November 4, 1999, pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of August 4, 1999 (the "Merger Agreement"), between Health Care Property Investors, Inc., a Maryland corporation ("HCPI") and American Health Properties, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("AHP"), AHP merged with and into HCPI and the separate corporate existence of AHP ceased (the "Merger"). HCPI will continue under the name "Health Care Property Investors, Inc." In the Merger, (i) each issued and outstanding share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of AHP ("AHP Common Stock") was converted into 0.78 (the "Exchange Ratio") shares of common stock, par value $1.00 per share, of HCPI ("HCPI Series C Common Stock"), with cash being paid in lieu of fractional shares of AHP Common Stock and (ii) each issued and outstanding share of AHP 8.60% Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock, Series B, par value $0.01 per share ("AHP Preferred Stock"), was converted into the right to receive one share of HCPI 8.60% Series C Cumulative Redeemable preferred stock, par value $1.00 per share ("HCPI Preferred Stock"). In addition, HCPI assumed outstanding options to acquire AHP Common Stock as options to acquire HCPI Common Stock, on the same terms as the original option, adjusted to reflect the Exchange Ratio. All deferred directors fees and related dividend equivalent rights of AHP were also assumed by HCPI in the Merger on the same terms as in effect prior to the Merger, with the right to receive AHP Common Stock being converted into the right to receive HCPI Common Stock, as adjusted for the Exchange Ratio. Prior to the Merger, each share of AHP Preferred Stock was represented by depositary shares, each representing a one-one-hundredth interest in a share of AHP Preferred Stock. These depositary shares representing AHP Preferred Stock automatically became depositary shares representing a one-one-hundredth interest in a share of HCPI Series C Preferred Stock. On November 5, 1999, HCPI issued a press release, a copy of which is annexed hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference. Certain of the statements contained in the press release that are not historical facts are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act. HCPI's actual results may differ materially from those included in the forward-looking statements.

These forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties including, but not limited to, the following: changes in general economic conditions, including the performance of financial markets and interest rates; and competitive, regulatory, or tax changes that affect the cost of or demand for HCPI's properties.
