PART I 
 
ITEM 1. BUSINESS 
 
THE COMPANY 
 
Liberty Property Trust (the "Trust") is one of the largest owners and  
operators of suburban industrial and office real estate in the United  
States.  The Trust is a self-administered and self-managed Maryland real  
estate investment trust (a "REIT").  The Trust and its subsidiary,  
Liberty Property Limited Partnership, a Pennsylvania limited partnership  
(the "Operating Partnership") and, together with the Trust, the  
"Company"), were formed to continue and expand the commercial real  
estate business of Rouse & Associates, a Pennsylvania general  
partnership, and certain affiliated entities (collectively, the  
"Predecessor").  Founded in 1972, the Predecessor developed and managed  
commercial real estate in the Southeastern and Mid-Atlantic United  
States.  Substantially all of the Trust's assets are owned directly or  
indirectly by, and substantially all of the Trust's operations are  
conducted directly or indirectly by, the Operating Partnership. 
 
The Company provides leasing, property management, acquisition,  
development, construction management, design management and other  
related services for a portfolio which, as of December 31, 1996,  
consisted of 259 industrial and office properties (the "Properties in  
Operation") totaling approximately 20.6 million leasable square feet.   
As of December 31, 1996, the Company also had 22 properties under  
development (the "Properties Under Development") and, together with the  
Properties in Operation, the "Properties").   The Properties Under  
Development are expected to generate approximately 3.0 million leasable  
square feet.  The land, which is all zoned for commercial use, is  
believed to be capable of supporting, as and when developed, 9.3 million  
leaseable square feet. The Properties are located principally within the  
Southeastern and Mid-Atlantic United States.  As of December 31, 1996,  
the Properties in Operation were approximately 92.8% leased to over 800  
tenants. 
 
During the year ended December 31, 1996, through Total Investments (as  
defined below) aggregating $232.2 million, the Company has increased its  
total leasable square footage of industrial and office space by  
approximately 23.5% by acquiring 33 properties totaling approximately  
2.4 million leasable square feet and by developing 19 properties  
totaling approximately 1.5 million leasable square feet.  The "Total  
Investment" for a property is defined as the property's purchase price  
plus closing costs and management's estimate, as determined at the time  
of acquisition, of the cost of necessary building improvements in the  
case of acquisitions, or land costs and land and building improvement  
costs in the case of development projects, and, where appropriate, other  
development costs and carrying costs required to reach rent  
commencement.  During 1996, the Company has also increased its holdings  
of land for future development by 98 acres (net of acreage utilized in  
1996 for development projects and sold), all zoned for commercial use. 

                                 -5- 


As of December 31, 1996, the Properties in Operation consisted of 173  
industrial and 86 office properties.  The Company's industrial  
properties are located principally in suburban mixed-use developments or  
business parks and include warehouse/distribution facilities, as well as  
flex facilities which accommodate both industrial and office use. The  
industrial activities in the Company's flex facilities typically include  
service, assembly, light manufacturing and research and development.   
The Company's office properties are mid-rise and single story office  
buildings, located principally in suburban mixed-use developments or  
office parks. 
 
The Trust is the sole general partner and also a limited partner of the  
Operating Partnership, with a combined equity interest in the Operating  
Partnership of 90.05% at December 31, 1996.  The units of limited  
partnership interest (the "Units") in the Operating Partnership are  
exchangeable on a one for one basis (subject to antidilution  
protections) for Common Shares of Beneficial Interest $.001 par value  
per share (the "Common Shares"), of the Trust typically after the first  
anniversary of the issuance of any such Units.  The only limited  
partners of the Operating Partnership other than the Trust are persons  
or entities that contributed assets to the Operating Partnership,  
principally senior executives of the Trust and their affiliates.  The  
Units held by the limited partners other than the Trust (that is, the  
minority interest reflected in the Trust's financial statements) were  
exchangeable for approximately 3.5 million Common Shares on December 31,  
1996. 
 
The Company's executive offices are located at 65 Valley Stream Parkway,  
Malvern, Pennsylvania 19355.  The telephone number is (610) 648-1700.   
The Company maintains offices in each of its primary markets. 
 
MANAGEMENT AND EMPLOYEES 
 
The Company's 199 employees (as of February 18, 1997) are under the  
direction of 17 senior executives, who have developed and managed over  
35 million square feet of commercial real estate during the past 25  
years and who, on average, have been affiliated with the Company and/or  
the Predecessor for 14 years. The Company's in-house leasing, marketing  
and property management staff operates in 8 full-service local offices  
in the United States.  This structure enables the Company to better  
understand the particular characteristics of the local markets in which  
it operates, to respond quickly and directly to tenant needs and to  
better identify local acquisition and development opportunities.  The  
Company considers its relations with its employees to be good. 
 
BUSINESS OBJECTIVES AND STRATEGIES FOR GROWTH 
 
The Company's primary objective is to increase funds from operations.   
See Item 6, "Selected Financial Data", for the definition of this term.   
The operating strategies for achieving this goal are to deliver  
outstanding tenant service, emphasize marketing to attract new tenants  
and enhance the Company's portfolio through the acquisition and  
development of high quality properties in markets affording  
opportunities for attractive investments.  In pursuing these strategies,  

                                -6-


the Company seeks to manage its capital structure to fund growth while  
maintaining financial liquidity and stability. 
 
INTERNAL GROWTH STRATEGIES 
 
Management believes that the Properties offer significant opportunities  
for the Company to increase its rental revenues and cash flow.  The  
Company seeks to increase cash flow by continuing its practice of  
negotiating for contractual rental increases that take effect during the  
terms of its leases.  In addition, the Company seeks to increase rental  
revenues through the renewal or replacement of expiring leases at higher  
rental rates and by improving the occupancy rates of its portfolio.  
 
New Leases and Lease Renewals. In the early 1990s, rental rates in the  
markets in which the Properties are located were flat or decreased as a  
result of recessionary market conditions and an oversupply of commercial  
real estate in such markets. As these leases expire, the Company  
expects, although no assurance can be given, that replacement leases  
will reflect higher rental rates as economic conditions continue to  
improve and the oversupply of commercial real estate is mitigated by the  
decreased commercial construction starts in recent years. 
 
Contractual Increases.  The Company seeks to generate increased cash  
flow from the Properties in Operation through contractual increases in  
rental rates under its leases.  The leases in effect with respect to the  
Properties in Operation as of December 31, 1996 provide for contractual  
rental increases that are expected to contribute an additional $1.2   
million to the Company's cash flow for the year ending December 31,  
1997.  The Company intends to continue seeking to negotiate contractual  
rent increases that take effect during the terms of its leases. 
 
Improving Occupancies.  The Company believes that the quality and  
diversity of its tenant base has contributed, and will continue to  
contribute, to the success of its strategy for increasing rental and  
occupancy rates.  The Company targets financially stable tenants in an  
effort to minimize uncertainty relating to the ability of its tenants to  
meet their lease obligations.  The Company's success in maintaining its  
occupancy rates and attracting and retaining tenants is demonstrated in  
part by its renewal rate which was approximately 59.0% for the year  
ended December 31, 1996. 
 
Cost Controls.  The Company seeks to monitor and control its operating  
and administrative costs by performing many functions in-house rather  
than by engaging outside parties.  For example, the Company relies  
primarily on its locally based leasing and marketing staff, thereby  
reducing commissions to third parties.  Similarly, although construction  
and design services typically are provided by third parties (including,  
in certain instances, an entity affiliated with one or more of the  
Company's senior executives), the Company's in-house construction and  
design management staff closely supervises construction and design  
activities in an effort to control costs, minimize cost overruns, ensure  
timely delivery of tenant space and maximize productivity and  
efficiencies.  The Company also employs an annual capital improvement  

                             -7-



and preventive maintenance program designed to reduce the operating  
costs of the Properties and maintain their long-term value. 
 
ACQUISITIONS 
 
STRATEGY.  The Company seeks to acquire properties consistent with its  
business objectives and strategies for growth.  The Company has  
identified the following categories of acquisitions: 
 
SINGLE-ASSET ACQUISITIONS: 
 
STABILIZED ACQUISITIONS:  Stabilized Acquisitions consist of individual  
properties generally located within the Company's existing markets,  
which are typically at high occupancy levels upon acquisition. During  
the year ended December 31, 1996, the Company acquired 27 properties  
which can be characterized as Stabilized Acquisitions containing  
approximately 1.6 million leasable square feet of industrial and office  
space for a Total Investment of approximately $96.3 million.  These  
properties were 96.7% leased as of December 31, 1996. 
 
ENTREPRENEURIAL ACQUISITIONS:  Entrepreneurial Acquisitions consist of  
individual properties generally located within the Company's existing  
markets, which are typically either vacant or at low occupancy levels  
and can be purchased substantially below replacement cost, thereby  
offering the opportunity for above average return when fully leased.   
During the year ended December 31, 1996, the Company acquired 6  
properties which can be characterized as Entrepreneurial Acquisitions  
containing approximately 783,000 leasable square feet of industrial and  
office space which was either vacant or partially leased at the time of  
acquisition,  for a Total Investment of approximately $36.6 million.   
Approximately 45,000 square feet of space was acquired vacant for a  
Total Investment of approximately $1.5 million, and was 100.0% leased as  
of December 31, 1996.  The remaining 738,000 square feet of this space  
was acquired partially leased for a Total Investment of approximately  
$35.1 million and was 68.1% leased as of December 31, 1996.  
 
PORTFOLIO ACQUISITIONS:   
 
Groups of properties or existing real estate companies that in either  
case offer an immediate return which can be enhanced by the Company's  
management expertise and financial strength. 
 
DEVELOPMENT 
 
STRATEGY.  The Company pursues selective development opportunities  
focusing primarily on high quality suburban industrial and office  
properties within its existing markets.  The Company's development  
activities fall into two categories: build-to-suit projects and projects  
built for inventory.  The Company develops build-to-suit projects for  
existing and new tenants.  The buildings in these projects are  
substantially pre-leased to one or more tenants prior to construction.   
The Company also builds properties for inventory in high-occupancy  
markets in which the Company has identified sufficient demand at market  
rental rates justifying such construction. 
 
                             -8-

 

COMPLETED DEVELOPMENTS: During the year ended December 31, 1996, the  
Company completed 4 build-to-suit and 15 inventory  
projects, approximately 1.5 million square feet of leasable space  
representing a Total Investment of approximately $99.3 million.  As of  
December 31, 1996, the completed development properties were 91.7%  
leased. 
 
PROPERTIES UNDER DEVELOPMENT: As of December 31, 1996,  the Company  was  
developing 22 development properties which, upon completion, are  
expected to generate approximately 3.0 million square feet of leasable  
space representing a Total Investment of approximately $153.8 million.   
Approximately 68.8% of such leaseable space was pre-leased as of  
December 31, 1996. Five of these properties are 100% pre-leased under net  
leases as build-to-suit projects. There can be no assurance that any of  
these Properties Under Development will be completed, or that the  
Company's budgets or estimates of construction costs or time periods  
necessary to complete construction, will be realized.  The Company  
expects to complete development of 12 properties (totalling 2.2 million  
square feet of leasable space) in the year ended December 31, 1997. 
 
LAND:  As of December 31, 1995, the Company owned 914 acres of land for  
development, all zoned for commercial use. During the year ended  
December 31, 1996 the Company purchased an additional 315 acres of land  
for development, and utilized 177 acres in development projects and sold  
40 acres.  Substantially all of the remaining 1,012 acres is located  
adjacent to or within existing industrial or business parks with site  
improvements, such as public sewers, water and utilities, available for  
service and the Company anticipates that the land would support 9.3  
million leasable square feet.  The Company believes that, because it is  
a fully integrated real estate firm, its base of commercially zoned land  
in existing industrial and business parks provides a competitive  
advantage for future development activities, particularly as the  
availability of land within the Company's geographic markets continues  
to diminish. 
 
INTERNATIONAL OPERATION:  The Company earns an annual fee of $600,000  
(subject to adjustment for additional services undertaken by the  
Company) for its management services provided with respect to a joint  
venture between Rouse Kent Limited, which is owned by certain senior  
executives of the Company, and the County of Kent, England to develop a  
650-acre, mixed-use park approximately 25 miles southeast of London.   
The Company has an option to purchase Rouse Kent for nominal  
consideration and an option to purchase future buildings and land within  
the park.  The Company's international operations also include 4  
Properties in Operation in the County of Kent. 
 
SUBSEQUENT ACTIVITIES 
 
Since December 31, 1996, the date as of which tabular data presented  
herein is reflected, the Company has purchased three office buildings  
containing approximately 267,134 leasable square feet for a Total  
Investment of $26.6 million. In addition, the Company has completed  

                             -9-



development on three industrial distribution properties containing  
approximately 1.4 million leasable square feet for a Total Investment of  
$42.1 million. 
 
The Company intends to pursue its acquisition and development  
strategies.  The Company is currently in various stages of discussions  
and negotiations with respect to acquisition and build-to-suit projects  
totalling over $200.0 million. The consummation of these or any other  
future acquisitions or developments, if any, and the pace at which  
acquisitions may be made and developments completed, cannot be assured. 
 
COMPETITION 
 
The Company faces competition as a buyer, developer and lessor of  
properties and will likely face competition as an eventual seller of  
properties to the extent that properties are sold.  The Company may be  
competing with other owners and developers with greater resources and  
whose management may have more experience than the Company's officers  
and trustees.  There are numerous other entities, including but not  
limited to other REITs, that compete with the Company in seeking to  
acquire the limited number of properties available for sale that meet  
the Company's acquisition strategy.  Like the Company, many of the  
potentially competing purchasers can use their own securities in making  
acquisitions.  Additionally, the number of competitive properties in any  
particular market in which the Company's Properties are located could  
have a material adverse effect on both the Company's ability to lease  
space at the Properties or any newly-acquired property and on the rents  
charged at the Properties in Operation.  However, the Company believes  
that its capital base, its existing sources of credit and its access as  
a public entity to the capital markets to raise funds during periods  
when conventional sources of financing may be unavailable or  
prohibitively expensive will provide the Company with competitive  
advantages.  Further, the Company believes that the number of real  
estate developers has decreased as a result of the recessionary market  
conditions and tight credit markets during the early 1990s as well as  
the reluctance on the part of more conventional financing sources to  
fund development and acquisition projects.  Moreover, the Company  
believes that its responsiveness to tenant needs will enable it to  
attract and maintain high quality tenants in the markets in which the  
Properties in Operation are located. 
 
ENVIRONMENTAL REGULATIONS 
 
Under various federal, state and local laws, ordinances and regulations  
relating to the protection of the environment (collectively,  
"Environmental Laws"), 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, released, generated,  
manufactured or discharged from, on, at, onto, under or in such  
property.  Environmental Laws often impose such liability without regard  
to whether the owner or operator knew of, or was responsible for, the  
presence or release of such hazardous or toxic substances.  In addition,  
the presence of any such substances or the failure to properly remediate  
such substances when present, released or discharged may adversely  

                                -10-



affect the owner's ability to sell or rent such property or to borrow  
using such property as collateral.  The cost of any required remediation  
and the liability of the owner or operator therefor as to any property  
is generally not limited under such Environmental Laws and could exceed  
the value of the property and/or the aggregate assets of the owner or  
operator.  Persons who arrange for disposal of hazardous or toxic  
substances may also be liable for the costs of removal or remediation of  
such substances at a disposal or treatment facility, whether or not such  
facility is owned or operated by such persons.  In addition to any  
action required by federal, state or local authorities, the presence of  
hazardous or toxic substances on any of the Properties, or on any  
properties acquired hereafter, could result in private plaintiffs  
bringing claims for personal injury or other causes of action.  In  
connection with the ownership and operation of the Properties, and on  
any properties acquired hereafter, the Company may be potentially liable  
for remediation, release or injury.  Further, various Environmental Laws  
impose on owners or operators the requirement of ongoing compliance with  
rules and regulations regarding business-related activities that may  
affect the environment.  Failure to comply with such requirements could  
result in difficulty in the lease or sale of any affected Property or  
the imposition of monetary penalties and fines in addition to the costs  
required to attain compliance. 
 
All of the Properties in Operation have been subject to Phase I  
Environmental Assessments ("Phase I Assessments").  The Phase I  
Assessments did not reveal, nor is the Company aware of, any non- 
compliance with Environmental Laws, environmental liability or other  
environmental claim that the Company believes would likely have a  
material adverse effect on the Company.  Although certain environmental  
issues have been identified with respect to certain of the Properties,  
the Company does not believe that any of these issues is likely to  
materially adversely affect the results of the Company's operations.  No

ITEM 3.   LEGAL PROCEEDINGS 
 
The Trust is not a party to any material legal proceedings.  In the  
ordinary course of business, the Operating Partnership is party to  
ordinary routine litigation incidental to its business, including  
routine actions for negligence, personal injury or other claims, many of  
which are expected to be covered by liability insurance and in the  
aggregate are not expected to have a material effect on the business or  
financial condition of the Company. 
 
On June 27, 1995, the Environmental Protection Agency ("EPA") notified  
Willard G. Rouse III, George F. Congdon and David C. Hammers, together  
with six other companies or individuals, that they may be potentially  
responsible for a portion of the response costs for remediation of  
ground water in part of the North Penn Service Area for certain  
properties located in Upper Gwynedd Township, Pennsylvania, (the "Church  
Road Properties"), as former owners.  The Company acquired the Church  
Road Properties from the Predecessor upon formation.  The Company has  
not been similarly notified by the EPA; however, as the present owner of  
the Church Road Properties, the potential exists for the Company to be  
named a potentially responsible party if there has been a release from  
the Church Road Properties of hazardous substances, including  
trichloroethylene, that requires remediation.  In such circumstances,  
the Company believes it would have claims against other financially  
responsible parties (including previous owners of the Church Road  
Properties, such as Zenith and the other parties identified by EPA as  
potentially liable) and, consequently, the Company does not believe that  
its liability with respect to this matter, if any, is likely to be  
material.  In addition, Mr. Rouse, Mr. Congdon, Mr. Hammers and Joseph  
P. Denny, have agreed to indemnify the Company for a period of ten years  
commencing in June 1994 with respect to material environmental  
liabilities associated with the Church Road Properties.

                                -20-


Although the Company currently anticipates that comparable cash  
dividends will continue to be paid in the future, the payment of future  
dividends by the Company will be at the discretion of the Board of  
Trustees and will depend on numerous factors including the Company's  
cash flow, its financial condition, capital requirements, annual  
distribution requirements under the REIT provisions of the Internal  
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and such other factors as the Board of  
Trustees deems relevant.

an appropriate measure of the performance of an equity REIT.  Funds from  
operations is defined as net income or loss (computed in accordance with  
generally accepted accounting principles), excluding gains (or losses)  
from debt restructuring and sales of property, plus real estate related  
depreciation and amortization excluding the amortization of deferred  
financing costs and depreciation of non-real estate assets.  Funds from  
operations does not represent cash generated from operating activities  
in accordance with generally accepted accounting principals and is not  
necessarily indicative of cash available to fund cash needs.  The  
Company believes that to facilitate a clear understanding of the  
Company's operating results, funds from operations should be examined in  
conjunction with net income, although it should not be considered as an  
alternative to net income as an indicator of the Company's operating  
performance or as an alternative to cash flow as a measure of liquidity.   
Funds from operations computed by the Company may not be comparable to  
other similarly titled measures of other REITs. 
 
ITEM 7.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND  
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS 
 
OVERVIEW 
 
The following discussion is based on the consolidated financial  
statements of the Company and the combined financial statements of the  
Predecessor.  The combined financial statements of the Predecessor  
reflect the combination of data from the balance sheets and the  
statements of operations of the partnerships that owned the properties,  
and the management, development and leasing operations of the  
Predecessor that were contributed to the Company in connection with its  
formation, which was consummated concurrently with its initial public  
offering.  The combined financial statements of the Predecessor are  
presented for comparative purposes only. 
 
The following discussion compares the results of operations of the  
Company for the year ended December 31, 1996 with the results of  
operations of the Company for the year ended December 31, 1995, and the  
results of operations of the Company for the year ended December 31,  
1995 with the results of operations of the Company and Predecessor, on a  
combined basis, for the year ended December 31, 1994.  As used herein,  
the term "Company" includes the Trust, the Operating Partnership and  
their subsidiaries (and, where the context indicates, the Predecessor). 
 
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS 
 
Comparison of year ended December 31, 1996 to year ended December 31,  
1995.  Total revenues (principally rental revenues and operating expense  
reimbursement) increased from $117.0 million for the year ended December  
31, 1995 to $154.3 million for the year ended December 31, 1996.  This  
increase was primarily due to the increase in the number of properties  
owned during the respective periods. As of January 1, 1995, the Company  

                             -23-


owned 151 properties and, through December 31, 1995, acquired 52  
additional properties (net of two properties exchanged in connection  
with such acquisitions) and completed development of five properties for  
a Total Investment of $223.1 million.  As of January 1, 1996, the  
Company owned 208 properties, and, through December 31, 1996, acquired  
33 additional properties and completed the development on 19 properties  
for a Total Investment of $232.2 million. 
 
Rental property and real estate tax expenses increased from $29.3  
million for the year ended December 31, 1995 to $40.9 million for the  
year ended December 31, 1996.  This increase is due to the increase in  
the number of properties owned, and because of significant snow removal  
and other seasonal operating costs incurred as a result of the severe  
1996 winter. 
 
Property level operating income for the "Same Store" properties  
(properties owned since January 1, 1995) increased from $68.0 million  
for the year ended December 31, 1995 to $71.5 million for the year ended  
December 31, 1996.  This increase of 5.1% is due to increases in rental  
rates and increases in occupancy. 
 
Set forth below is a schedule comparing the operating results for the  
Same Store properties for the years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995.

                                         ========       ======== 
 
General and administrative expenses increased from $5.2 million for the  
year ended December 31, 1995 to $8.0 million for the year ended December  
31, 1996.  This $2.8 million increase is due to the increase in  
personnel and other related overhead costs necessitated by the increase  
in the number of properties owned during the respective periods.   
Included in the general and administrative expenses for the year ended  
December 31, 1996 is a $704,000 non-cash charge resulting from the  
amortization of a stock award over its vesting period.  There is no  
corresponding charge for the year ended December 31, 1995. 
 
Depreciation and amortization expenses increased from $22.5 million in  
1995 to $28.2 million in 1996.  This increase is due to the increase in  
the number of properties owned during the respective periods. 

                               -24-

 
Interest expense increased from $37.7 million for the year ended  
December 31, 1995 to $38.5 million for the year ended December 31,   
1996.  This increase is due to an increase in the average debt  
outstanding for the respective periods which was $397.4 million in 1995  
and $576.3 million in 1996.  This increase is partly offset by the lower  
interest rate on the outstanding debt because of the 1% reduction in the  
interest rate on the Line of Credit borrowings which became effective on  
May 1, 1995, and because of a decrease in the outstanding Subordinated  
Debentures due to the conversion of $58.7 million Debentures in 1996. 
 
As a result of the foregoing, the Company's operating income increased  
from $60.0 million for the year ended December 31, 1995 to $77.2 million  
for the year ended December 31, 1996.  In addition, income before  
minority interest increased from $22.3 million for the year ended  
December 31, 1995 to $37.6 million for the year ended December 31, 1996. 
 
Comparison of year ended December 31, 1995 to year ended December 31,  
1994.  Total revenues (principally rental revenues and operating expense  
reimbursement) increased from $83.0 million for the year ended December  
31, 1994 to $117.0 million for the year ended December 31, 1995.  This  
increase was primarily due to the increase in the number of properties   
owned during the respective periods. From January 1, 1994 through June  
22, 1994, the Predecessor owned 113 properties.  Concurrent with the  
initial public offering, the Company purchased 18 properties for a Total  
Investment of $57.0 million.  From the consummation of its initial  
public offering through December 31, 1994, the Company purchased 20  
additional properties for $79.5 million.  As of January 1, 1995, the  
Company owned 151 properties and, through December 31, 1995, acquired 52  
additional properties (net of two properties exchanged in connection  
with such acquisitions) and completed the development of five properties  
for a Total Investment of $223.1 million. 
 
Rental property and real estate tax expenses increased from $21.8  
million for the year ended December 31, 1994 to $29.3 million for the  
year ended December 31, 1995.  This increase is due to the increase in  
the number of properties owned. 
 
Property level operating income for the "Same Store" properties  
(properties owned since January 1, 1994) increased from $52.4 million  
for the year ended December 31, 1994 to $53.3 million for the year ended  
December 31, 1995.  This increase of 1.7% was attributable primarily to  
an increase in the occupancy in the industrial distribution and office  
properties. 
 
Set forth below is a schedule comparing the property level operating  
income for the Same Store properties for the years ended December 31,  
1995 and 1994.

General and administrative expenses increased from $4.7 million for the  
year ended December 31, 1994 to $5.2 million for the year ended December  
31, 1995.  This $500,000 increase is due to an increase in the number of  
properties owned during the respective periods and as a result of costs  
incurred to operate as a publicly owned company during the entire period  
of 1995.  The Predecessor did not incur similar costs from January 1,  
1994 through June 22, 1994. 
 
Depreciation and amortization expenses increased from $14.7 million for  
the year ended December 31, 1994 to $22.5 million for the year ended  
December 31, 1995.  This increase is due to the increase in the number  
of properties owned during the respective periods. 
 
Interest expense increased from $34.2 million for the year ended  
December 31, 1994 to $37.7 million for the year ended December 31, 1995.   
Interest expense for 1994 reflects, 1) interest on $525.0 million of  
mortgage loans for the Rouse Group, which loans were satisfied from the  
proceeds of the initial public offerings, and 2) interest on the  
Debentures for the period from issuance at June 23, 1994 through  
December 31, 1994.  Interest expense for 1995 reflects, 1) interest on  
the Line of Credit borrowings and mortgage loans incurred to fund  
property acquisitions and development, and 2) interest on the Debentures  
for the full 1995 year. 
 
During the year ended December 31, 1994, the Company recognized $55.8  
million in extraordinary income from the extinguishment of debt. There  
was no similar item in 1995. 
 
As a result of the foregoing, income before the effect of minority  
interest and extraordinary items increased from $7.6 million in 1994 to  
$22.3 million in 1995.  In addition, the Company's operating income  
increased from $41.8 million in 1994 to $60.0 million in 1995. 
 
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES 
 
As of December 31, 1996, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of  
$19.6 million.  Working capital at December 31, 1996 was $14.6 million. 
 
Net cash flow provided by operating activities increased from $50.5  
million for the year ended December 31, 1995 to $59.8 million for the  
year ended December 31, 1996.  This $9.3 million increase was primarily  
due to the additional cash flow generated by the greater number of  
properties in service during the latter period. 

                                -26-



Net cash used in investing activities decreased from $281.9 million for  
the year ended December 31, 1995 to $265.4 million for the year ended  
December 31, 1996.  This decrease was a result of the $125.9 million  
investment made in March 1995 in connection with the acquisition of the  
Lingerfelt portfolio, while there was no similar portfolio acquisition  
made in 1996.  This decrease was partly offset by the increase in  
acquisition, development and property investment from $156.9 for the  
year ended December 31, 1995 to $265.4 million for the year ended  
December 31, 1996. 
 
Net cash provided by financing activities decreased from $216.9 million  
for the year ended December 31, 1995 to $214.6 million for the year  
ended December 31, 1996.  This decrease is consistent with the decrease  
in investing activities. 
 
The Company believes that its undistributed cash flow from operations  
are adequate to fund its short-term liquidity requirements. 
 
The Company has funded its long-term liquidity requirements such as  
property acquisition and development activities primarily through its  
$250 million Line of Credit. This Line matures on June 15, 1998, subject  
to the Company's option to extend the maturity of the loan as described  
below.  As of December 31, 1996, $241.7 million was outstanding under  
the Line of Credit.  The Line of Credit is recourse to the Company only  
with respect to 50% of the outstanding principal amount thereof.  Funds  
borrowed under the Line of Credit bear interest at an annual rate of 175  
basis points over LIBOR.  Subject to certain conditions and the payment  
of a fee equal to 0.5% of the then outstanding loan balance, the Company  
may exercise a one-time option to convert the loan balance into a two- 
year term loan upon the maturity of the Line of Credit.  Following such  
conversion, the interest rate on the term loan would be LIBOR plus 4%. 
 
In December 1996, the Company closed on an $80 million secured Line of  
Credit.  The Line matures on December 13, 1998, however, at any time  
prior to December 13, 1998, maturity may be extended for one year  
subject to certain conditions and the payment of an extension fee equal  
to 1/4% of the total commitment (as defined).  As of December 31, 1996  
collateral had been approved to enable the Company to borrow up to $56.0  
million, of which $25.0 million was outstanding.  The interest rate on  
the Line of Credit is 1.60% over LIBOR. 
 
Periodically, the Company pays down borrowings on its Line of Credit  
facilities with funds from long term capital sources.  During 1996, the  
Company utilized the funds from $77.6 million of mortgage loans it  
placed in 1996 to paydown the line of credit.  The Company has entered  
into a swap agreement, with a notional amount of $114.5 million, to  
hedge against possible fluctuations in interest rates in anticipation of  
a debt issuance in 1997 for a five to seven year term. 
 
As of December 31, 1996, $240.8 million in mortgage loans were  
outstanding with maturities ranging from 1997 to 2013.  The interest  
rates on $230.4 million of mortgage loans are fixed and range from 6% to  
10%.  Interest rates on $10.4 million of mortgage loans float with LIBOR  
or prime and are subject to certain caps.  The weighted average interest  

                               -27-



rate for the mortgage loans is 7.7% and the weighted average life is 8  
years. 
 
General 
 
The Company expects to incur variable rate debt, including borrowings  
under the Lines of Credit, from time to time.  The Company believes that  
its existing sources of capital will provide sufficient funds to finance  
its continued acquisition and development activities.  In this regard,  
the Company continues to evaluate its long term capital sources which  
generally include the availability of debt financing and access to  
equity. 
 
In July 1995, the Company filed a shelf registration with the Securities  
and Exchange Commission that enabled the Company to offer up to an  
aggregate of $350.0 million of securities, including common stock,  
preferred stock and debt.  On November 27, 1995, the Company completed a  
follow-on public offering of 7,200,000 common shares resulting in  
proceeds of $140.4 million. The remaining $209.6 million shelf  
registration is available for future offerings.   
 
On February 8, 1996, Moody's Investors Service assigned a prospective  
rating of Ba2 for senior unsecured debt issued by Liberty Property  
Limited Partnership under the shelf registration. 
 
On October 15, 1996, the Company filed a Registration Statement of  
1,000,000 shares to be issued through a Dividend Reinvestment and Stock  
Purchase Plan. 
 
On February 21, 1997, the Company filed a shelf registration with the  
Securities and Exchange Commission that enable the Company to offer up  
to an aggregate of $850.0 million of securities, including common stock,  
preferred stock and debt. 
 
CALCULATION OF FUNDS FROM OPERATIONS 
 
Management considers funds from operations an appropriate measure of the  
performance of an equity REIT.  Funds from operations is defined by  
NAREIT as net income or loss (computed in accordance with generally  
accepted accounting principles), excluding gains or losses from debt  
restructuring and sales of property plus depreciation and amortization  
excluding the amortization of deferred financing costs and depreciation  
of non-real estate assets.  Funds from operations should not be  
considered as an alternative to net income or as an alternative to cash  
flow or as a measure of liquidity.  Funds from operations for the years  
ended December 31, 1996 and 1995 are as follows:

INFLATION 
 
Inflation has remained relatively low during the last three years, and  
as a result, has not had a significant impact on the Predecessor or the  
Company during this period. The Lines of Credit bear interest at a  
variable rate; therefore, the amount of interest payable under the Lines  
of Credit will be influenced by changes in short-term interest rates,  
which tend to be sensitive to inflation.  To the extent an increase in  
inflation would result in increased operating costs, such as in  
insurance, real estate taxes or utilities, substantially all of the  
tenant's leases require the tenants to absorb these costs as part of  
their rental obligations.  In addition, inflation also may have the  
effect of increasing market rental rates.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS 
 
 
 
 
To The Board of Trustees and Shareholders 
Liberty Property Trust 
 
 
 
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Liberty  
Property Trust (the "Trust") as of December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the  
related consolidated statements of operations, shareholders' equity, and  
cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31,  
1996, and the period June 23, 1994 through December 31, 1994.  We have  
also audited the combined statements of operations, owners' deficit and  
cash flows of the Rouse Group for the period January 1, 1994 through  
June 22, 1994.  Our audits also included the financial statement  
schedule listed in the Index at Item 14(a).  These financial statements  
and schedule are the responsibility of the Trust'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 generally accepted auditing  
standards.  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  
Liberty Property Trust at December 31, 1996 and 1995, the consolidated  
results of Liberty Property Trust's operations and cash flows for each  
of the two years in the period ended December 31, 1996 and for the  
period June 23, 1994 through December 31, 1994, and the combined results  
of the Rouse Group's operations and cash flows for the period January 1,  
1994 through June 22, 1994, in conformity with generally accepted  
accounting principles.   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.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF LIBERTY PROPERTY TRUST 
AND COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF THE ROUSE GROUP 
 
 
1.   ORGANIZATION 
 
Liberty Property Trust (the "Trust") a self-administered and self- 
managed real estate investment trust (a "REIT"), was formed in the State  
of Maryland on March 28, 1994 and commenced operations on June 23, 1994  
upon completion of its initial public offering of  20,987,500 Common  
Shares of Beneficial Interest (the "Share Offering").  The Trust  
conducts all of its operations, including leasing, property management  
and other services through Liberty Property Limited Partnership (the  
"Operating Partnership" and together with the Trust referred to as the  
"Company"). Simultaneous with the closing of the Share Offering, the  
Company succeeded to substantially all of the interests of Rouse &  
Associates, a general partnership, and certain other entities affiliated  
with Rouse & Associates (collectively the "Rouse Group"). At December  
31, 1996, the Trust owns an 90.02% interest in the Operating Partnership  
as the sole general partner and a .03% interest as a limited partner.   
Concurrent with the Share Offering, the Operating Partnership completed  
a public offering of $230 million of Exchangeable Subordinated  
Debentures (the "Debenture Offering", and, together with the Share  
Offering, the "Offerings") due 2001.  The Debentures are guaranteed by  
the Trust.  After June 23, 1995, the Debentures are exchangeable at any  
time prior to maturity into Common Shares of Beneficial Interest at a  
rate of one share for each $20 outstanding principal amount of  
Debentures, subject to certain adjustments. The Company completed a  
follow-on offering (the "Follow-on Offering") on November 27, 1995,  
which resulted in net proceeds of $131.5 million.  The Company provides  
leasing, property management, acquisition, development, construction  
management, and design management for a portfolio of industrial and  
office properties which are located principally within the Southeastern  
and Mid-Atlantic United States. 
 
The Rouse Group combined financial statements include accounts of the  
properties and entities acquired by the Operating Partnership which are  
considered to be entities under common ownership and management. 
 
2.   SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES 
 
Use of Estimates 
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally  
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and  
assumptions that affect amounts reported in the financial statements and  
accompanying notes.  Actual results could differ from those estimates. 
 
Principles of Consolidation 
 
The Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company include the  
accounts of the Trust, the Operating Partnership and the Operating  
Partnership's direct and indirect subsidiaries including Liberty  
Property Development Corporation.  The acquisition of the Rouse Group  

                               -37-


interest by the Operating Partnership was accounted for as a  
reorganization of entities under common control which is similar to the  
accounting for a pooling of interests.  As a result, the operations of  
the Rouse Group are included in these Financial Statements. All  
significant intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated. 
 
Certain amounts from prior periods have been restated to conform to  
current year presentation. 
 
Real Estate and Depreciation 
 
The Properties are recorded at the lower of cost or net realizable value  
and are depreciated using the straight-line method over their estimated  
useful lives.  The estimated lives are as follows:

Cash Equivalents 
 
Highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when  
purchased are classified as cash equivalents.  The carrying amount of  
these assets approximates their fair market value.  
 
Revenues 
 
The Company earns rental income under operating leases with tenants.   
Rental income is recognized on a straight-line basis over the applicable  
lease term. 
 
Deferred Financing and Leasing Costs 
 
Costs incurred in connection with financing or leasing are capitalized  
and amortized over the term of the related loan or lease. Amortization  
of deferred financing costs is reported as interest expense. 
 
Earnings per Share 
 
Earnings per share is computed using the weighted average common shares  
and common stock equivalents outstanding during the years ended December  
31, 1996 and December 31, 1995 and for the period from June 23, 1994  
through December 31, 1994.  Fully diluted earnings per share is not  
disclosed because such information is not meaningful.  Earnings per  
share is $1.16 calculated as if the debenture conversions which occurred  
in 1996 had occurred on January 1, 1996. 
 
Income Taxes 
 
The Trust has made an election to be taxed as a Real Estate Investment  
Trust ("REIT") under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue  
Code.  As a REIT, the Trust generally will not be subject to Federal  
income tax to the extent that it distributes at least 95% of its REIT  

                                 -38-

taxable income to its shareholders.  If the Trust fails to qualify as a  
REIT in any taxable year, the Trust will be subject to Federal income  
tax (including any applicable Alternative Minimum Tax) at regular  
corporate rates on its taxable income. Even if the Trust qualifies for  
taxation as a REIT, the Trust may be subject to certain state and local  
taxes on its income and property and to Federal income and excise taxes  
on its undistributed income. 
 
The Company paid dividends of $52.6 million, $38.7 million, and $10.2  
million during the years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995 and for the  
period from June 23, 1994 to December 31, 1994.  On a per share basis,  
the Company paid dividends of $1.61, $1.60 and $0.43 during the years  
ended December 31, 1996 and 1995 and for the period from June 23, 1994  
to December 31, 1994.  The portions of the 1996 dividend relating to  
return of capital and earnings and profits are 29.9% and 70.1%,  
respectively. 
 
The Federal tax cost basis of the real estate at December 31, 1996 was  
approximately $1.1 billion.

in 1994. 
 
The Company has commenced development on 22 properties, which upon  
completion are expected to comprise approximately 3.0 million square  
feet of leasable space.  As of December 31, 1996 approximately $85.6  
million has been expended for the development of these projects and an  
additional $68.2 million is required for completion.

4.   RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS 
 
An affiliated company provides construction services to the Company.   
Amounts paid to this affiliate were $29,717,000 in 1996, $6,245,000 in  
1995, and $2,583,000 in 1994. 
 
During 1995, three properties were purchased from partnerships  
affiliated with Rouse & Associates not included in the Rouse Group.  The  
Rouse principals received no financial consideration for the purchase. 
 
Pursuant to agreements, the Company has been retained by an affiliate  
(Rouse Kent Limited) to provide development, management and other  
services. For the years ended December 31, 1996 and December 31, 1995  
and the period from June 23, 1994 to December 31, 1994 the fees for  
these services were $600,000, $600,000 and $453,000 respectively. At  
December 31, 1995, the Company had a $250,000 receivable from Rouse Kent  
Limited for these management and other services.  Additionally, the  
Company committed to loans in 1996 to two affiliates (Rouse Kent  
Development Limited and 1 Tower View Limited) for development projects.   
As of December 31, 1996, the balance of these notes receivable was $7.4  
million. 
 
5.   MORTGAGE LOANS, SUBORDINATED DEBENTURES AND LINES OF CREDIT  
 
Long term indebtedness consists generally of mortgage loans,  
subordinated debentures and Lines of Credit.  The average annualized  
interest rates for the years ended December 31, 1996, 1995, and 1994,  
were approximately 7.6%, 7.8%, and 8.0%  respectively.  Interest expense   
for the years ended December 31, 1996, 1995, and 1994, aggregated  
$38,528,000,  $37,688,000, and $34,243,000, respectively.  Interest  
costs during these periods of $7,708,000, $3,475,000, and $190,000 were  
capitalized.  Cash paid for interest for the years ended December 31,  
1996, 1995, and 1994 was $35,995,000, $33,202,000, and $51,232,000,  
respectively. 
 
Mortgage loans with maturities ranging from 1997 to 2013 are  
collateralized by and in some instances cross collateralized by  
properties with a book value of $314.0 million.  The interest rates on  
$230.4 million of mortgage loans are fixed and range from 6% to 10%.   
Interest rates on $10.4 million of mortgage loans float with LIBOR or  
prime and are subject to certain caps.  The weighted average interest  
rate on the mortgage loans is 7.7% and the weighted average life is 8  
years. 
 
                                 -40-

 
 
The aggregate maturities of the mortgages loans outstanding are as

                             ======== 
 
The Debentures are due on June 23, 2001 and are exchangeable for shares  
of the Trust at a rate of one share for each $20 outstanding principal  
amount of Debentures, subject to certain adjustments.  The initial  
interest rate on the Debentures was 8% and increases with increases in  
the dividend payment on the Company's Common Shares of Beneficial  
Interest.  At the current $.41 per share per quarter dividend payment  
rate, the effective interest rate on the Debentures is 8.2%.  During the  
year ended December 31, 1996, the Company paid sums aggregating $1.0  
million to facilitate the conversion of $58.7 million of Debentures into  
2,934,300 common shares. During the year ended December 31, 1996, $2.9  
million of related deferred financing costs were written off through  
additional paid-in capital. 
 
The Lines of Credit are composed of two secured lines of credit (the  
"$250 million Line of Credit" and the "$80 million Line of Credit").   
The $250 million Line of Credit is secured and is due on June 15, 1998  
at which time it may be converted into a two year term loan with the  
payment of a conversion fee equal to 1/2% of the then outstanding  
balance.  As of December 31, 1996, the $250.0 million Line of Credit was  
fully collateralized and $241.7 million was outstanding.  The interest  
rate on the $250 million Line of Credit is 30-day LIBOR plus 1.75%  
(7.13% and 7.75% at December 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively). Other  
normal and customary fees apply including an unused line fee. The $250  
million Line of Credit is recourse to the Company only with respect to  
50% of the outstanding principal thereof and is otherwise non-recourse  
subject to certain conditions.  At December 31, 1996, 109  properties  
with a book value of $387.6 million collateralized the $250 million Line  
of Credit. During 1996, the Company closed on an $80 million Line of  
Credit.  The $80 million Line of Credit is secured and is due on  
December 13, 1998.  At any time prior to December 13, 1998, maturity may  
be extended for one year subject to certain conditions and the payment  
of an extension fee equal to 1/4% of the total commitment.  As of  
December 31, 1996, collateral had been approved to enable the company to  
borrow up to $56.0 million, of which $25.0 million was outstanding.  The  
interest rate on the $80 million Line of Credit is 90-day LIBOR plus  
1.60% (7.13% at December 31, 1996).  At December 31, 1996, 23 properties  
with a book value of $64.5 million, and 2 development properties with a  
book value of $3.9 million collateralized the $80 million Line of  
Credit. 
 
                                 -41-



In 1994, the Company recognized a gain on extinguishment of debt which  
resulted primarily from the payment of mortgage notes and notes payable  
including penalties and accrued interest at a discount with $451.8  
million in proceeds obtained from the issuance of shares and the  
Debentures. 
 
The fair value of the Debentures at December 31, 1996 was $220.4 million  
based on the closing bid price of the security on the New York Stock  
Exchange.  The fair values of the mortgages and Lines of Credit were  
estimated using discounted cash flow analysis, based on the Company's  
estimated incremental borrowing rate at December 31, 1996, for similar  
types of borrowing arrangements.  The carrying values of the mortgages  
and the Lines of Credit approximate their fair values. 
 
6.	LEASING ACTIVITY 
 
Future minimum rental payments due from tenants under non-cancellable  
operating leases as of December 31, 1996 are as follows (in thousands): 
 
        1997                 $119,777  
        1998                  107,177

                             ======== 
 
In addition to minimum rental payments, tenants pay for their pro rata  
share of specified operating expenses.  These amounts are included as  
operating expense reimbursement in the accompanying statements of  
operations.  
 
7.	MINORITY INTEREST 
 
In conjunction with the formation of the Company, persons contributing  
interest in properties to the Operating Partnership have received  
limited partnership interests in the Operating Partnership.  The  
aggregate outstanding limited partnership interests have the same  
economic characteristics as would 3,470,961 common shares of the Trust,  
inasmuch as they share proportionately in the net income or loss and in  
any distributions of the Operating Partnership and such interests are  
exchangeable into the same number of shares of the Trust. 
 
Minority interest in the accompanying consolidated financial statements  
relates to such limited partnership interests. 
  
8.	SHARE OPTIONS 
 
The Company has elected to follow Accounting Principles Board Opinion  
No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" (APB 25) and related  
Interpretations in accounting for its employee stock options because, as  
discussed below, the alternative fair value accounting provided for  

                              -42-



under FASB Statement No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,"  
requires use of option valuation models that were not developed for use  
in valuing employee stock options.  Under APB 25, because the exercise  
price  of the Company's employee stock options equals the market price  
of the underlying stock on the date of grant, no compensation expense is  
recognized. 
 
The Company's 1995 Share Incentive Plan has authorized the grant of  
options to executive officers, other key employees, non-employee  
trustees and consultants for up to 2,100,000 shares of the Company's  
common shares of beneficial interest.  All options granted have 10 year  
terms and vest over a 3 year period, with options to purchase up to 20%  
of the shares exercisable after the first anniversary, up to 50% after  
the second anniversary and 100% after the third anniversary of the date  
of grant. 
 
Pro forma information regarding net income and earnings per share is  
required by Statement 123, and has been determined as if the Company had  
accounted for its employee stock options under the fair value method of  
that Statement.  The fair value for these options was estimated at the  
date of grant using a Black-Scholes option pricing model with the  
following weighted-average assumptions: risk-free interest rate of 6.2%;  
dividend yield of 7.0%; volatility factor of the expected market price  
of the Company's common stock of .164; and a weighted-average expected  
life of the option of 3 years. 
 
The Black-Scholes option valuation model was developed for use in  
estimating the fair value of traded options which have no vesting  
restrictions and are fully transferable.  In addition, option valuation  
models require the input of highly subjective assumptions including the  
expected stock price volatility.  Because the Company's employee stock  
options have characteristics significantly different from those of  
traded options, and because changes in the subjective input assumptions  
can materially affect the fair value estimate, in management's opinion,  
the existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable single measure  
of the fair value of its employee stock options. 
 
For purposes of pro forma disclosures, the estimated fair value of the  
options is amortized to expense over the options' vesting period.  The  
Company's pro forma information follows (in thousands, except for per  
share amounts):

Pro forma disclosures are not likely to be representative of the effects  
on reported net income for future years because of the staggered vesting

An additional 511,887, 632,400 and 1,335,000 shares were reserved for  
issuance for future grants from the option plan at December 31, 1996,  
1995 and 1994, respectively. 
 
9.   COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES 
 
All of the Properties have been subject to Phase I Environmental  
Assessments ("Phase I Assessments") performed and obtained in  
contemplation of the formation or acquisitions.  The Phase I Assessments  
consisted of, among other activities, a visual inspection of each  
Property and its neighborhood and a check of pertinent public records.   
The Phase I Assessments did not reveal, nor is the Company aware of, any  
non-compliance with environmental laws, environmental liability or other  
environmental claim that the Company believes would likely have a  
material adverse effect on the Company. 
 
The Trust is not a party to any material legal proceedings.  In the  
ordinary course of business, the Operating Partnership is party to  
ordinary routine litigation incidental to its business and in addition  
it is covered by insurance. 

                                -44-


 
The Company has entered into an interest rate swap agreement to hedge  
against possible fluctuations in interest rates in anticipation of a  
$120 million debt issuance in 1997 for a five to seven year term.  The  
securities underlying the interest rate swap agreement, with a notional  
amount of $114.5 million, are 5.875% US Treasury Securities maturing on  
February 15, 2004.  Gain or loss on this hedging transaction is being  
deferred and will be amortized as adjustments to interest expense  
commencing on the date of issuance of the debt and over the term of the  
debt.  At December 31, 1996, the Company had one swap transaction  
outstanding, and approximately $645,000 in unrealized gain has been  
deferred.

                        REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS 
 
 
 
To The Partners  
Liberty Property Limited Partnership  
 
 
 
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Liberty  
Property Limited Partnership ("the Operating Partnership") as of  
December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the related consolidated statements of  
operations, owners' equity, and cash flows for each of the two years in  
the period ended December 31, 1996, and the period June 23, 1994 through  
December 31, 1994.  We have also audited the combined statements of  
operations, owners' deficit and cash flows of the Rouse Group for the  
period January 1, 1994 through June 22, 1994.  Our audits also included  
the financial statement schedule listed in the Index at Item 14(a).   
These financial statements and schedule are the responsibility of the  
Operating Partnership'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 generally accepted auditing  
standards.  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  
Liberty Property Limited Partnership at December 31, 1996 and 1995, the  
consolidated results of Liberty Property Limited Partnership's  
operations and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended   
December 31, 1996 and for the period June 23, 1994 through December 31,  
1994, and the combined results of the Rouse Group's operations and cash  
flows for the period January 1, 1994 through June 22, 1994, in  
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.   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.

 NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF LIBERTY PROPERTY LIMITED     
    PARTNERSHIP AND COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF THE ROUSE GROUP 
 
 
1.   ORGANIZATION 
 
Liberty Property Trust (the "Trust") a self-administered and self- 
managed real estate investment trust (a "REIT"), was formed in the State  
of Maryland on March 28, 1994 and commenced operations on June 23, 1994  
upon completion of its initial public offering of 20,987,500 Common  
Shares of Beneficial Interest (the "Share Offering").  The Trust  
conducts all of its operations, including leasing, property management  
and other services through Liberty Property Limited Partnership (the  
"Operating Partnership" and together with the Trust referred to as the  
"Company"). Simultaneous with the closing of the Share Offering, the  
Company succeeded to substantially all of the interests of Rouse &  
Associates, a general partnership, and certain other entities affiliated  
with Rouse & Associates (collectively the "Rouse Group"). At December  
31, 1996, the Trust owns an 90.02% interest in the Operating Partnership  
as the sole general partner and a .03% interest as a limited partner.   
Concurrent with the Share Offering, the Operating Partnership completed  
a public offering of $230 million of Exchangeable Subordinated  
Debentures (the "Debenture Offering", and, together with the Share  
Offering, the "Offerings") due 2001.  The Debentures are guaranteed by  
the Trust.  After June 23, 1995, the Debentures are exchangeable at any  
time prior to maturity into Common Shares of Beneficial Interest at a  
rate of one share for each $20 outstanding principal amount of  
Debentures, subject to certain adjustments. The Company completed a  
follow-on offering (the "Follow-on Offering") on November 27, 1995,  
which resulted in net proceeds of $131.5 million. The Company provides  
leasing, property management, acquisition, development, construction  
management, and design management for a portfolio of industrial and  
office properties which are located principally within the Southeastern  
and Mid-Atlantic United States. 
 
The Rouse Group combined financial statements include accounts of the  
properties and entities acquired by the Operating Partnership which are  
considered to be entities under common ownership and management. 
 
2.   SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES 
 
Use of Estimates 
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally  
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and  
assumptions that affect amounts reported in the financial statements and  
accompanying notes.  Actual results could differ from those estimates. 
 
Principles of Consolidation 
 
The Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company include the  
accounts of the Operating Partnership and the Operating Partnership's  
direct and indirect subsidiaries including Liberty Property Development  
Corporation.  The acquisition of the Rouse Group interest by the  

                               -68-


Operating Partnership was accounted for as a reorganization of entities  
under common control which is similar to the accounting for a pooling of  
interests.  As a result, the operations of the Rouse Group are included  
in these Financial Statements. All significant intercompany transactions  
and accounts have been eliminated. 
 
Certain amounts from prior periods have been restated to conform to  
current year presentation. 
 
Real Estate and Depreciation 
 
The Properties are recorded at the lower of cost or net realizable value  
and are depreciated using the straight-line method over their estimated  
useful lives.  The estimated lives are as follows: 
 
        Building and improvements              40 years 
        Equipment                              10 years 
        Tenant improvements                    Term of the related lease 
 
Cash Equivalents 
 
Highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when  
purchased are classified as cash equivalents.  The carrying amount of  
these assets approximates their fair market value.  
 
Revenues 
 
The Company earns rental income under operating leases with tenants.   
Rental income is recognized on a straight-line basis over the applicable  
lease term. 
 
Deferred Financing and Leasing Costs 
 
Costs incurred in connection with financing or leasing are capitalized  
and amortized over the term of the related loan or lease. Amortization  
of deferred financing costs is reported as interest expense. 
 
Income Taxes 
 
In conformity with the Internal Revenue Code and applicable state and  
local tax statutes, taxable income or loss of the Operating Partnership  
is required to be reported in the tax returns of the partners in  
accordance with the terms of the Partnership Agreement and, accordingly,  
no provision has been made in the accompanying financial statements for  
any federal, state, or local income taxes. 
 
3.   REAL ESTATE 
 
At December 31, 1996 and 1995, the Company owned and operated industrial  
and office properties within suburban mixed use developments or business  
parks.  The carrying value of these properties by type is as follows (in

4.   RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS 
 
An affiliated company provides construction services to the  Company.   
Amounts paid to this affiliate were $29,717,000 in 1996, $6,245,000 in  
1995, and $2,583,000 in 1994. 
 
During 1995, three properties were purchased from partnerships  
affiliated with Rouse & Associates not included in the Rouse Group.  The  
Rouse principals received no financial consideration for the purchase. 
 
Pursuant to agreements, the Company has been retained by an affiliate  
(Rouse Kent Limited) to provide development, management and other  
services. For the years ended December 31, 1996 and December 31, 1995,  
and the period from June 23, 1994 to December 31, 1994, the fees for  
these services were $600,000, $600,000 and $453,000, respectively.  At  
December 31, 1995, the Company had a $250,000 receivable from Rouse Kent  
Limited for these management and other services.  Additionally, the  
Company committed to loans in 1996 to two affiliates (Rouse Kent  
Development Limited and 1 Tower View Limited) for development projects.   
At December 31, 1996, the balance of these notes receivable was $7.4  
million. 
 
5.   MORTGAGE LOANS, SUBORDINATED DEBENTURES AND LINES OF CREDIT  
 
Long term indebtedness consists generally of mortgage loans,  
subordinated debentures and Lines of Credit.  The average annualized  
interest rates for the years ended December 31, 1996, 1995, and 1994,  
were approximately 7.6%, 7.8%, and 8.0%, respectively.  Interest expense  

                              -70-



for the years ended December 31, 1996, 1995, and 1994, aggregated  
$38,528,000, $37,688,000, and $34,243,000, respectively.  Interest costs  
during these periods of $7,708,000, $3,475,000, and $190,000 were  
capitalized.  Cash paid for interest for the years ended December 31,  
1996, 1995, and 1994 was $35,995,000, $33,202,000, and $51,232,000,  
respectively. 
 
Mortgage loans with maturities ranging from 1997 to 2013 (weighted  
average life 8 years) are collateralized by and in some instances cross  
collateralized by  properties with a book value of $314.0 million.  The  
interest rates on $230.4 million of mortgage loans are fixed and range  
from 6% to 10%.  Interest rates on $10.4 million of mortgage loans float  
with LIBOR or prime and are subject to certain caps.  The weighted  
average interest rate on the mortgage loans is 7.7% and the weighted  
average life is 8 years. 
 
The aggregate maturities of the mortgage loans outstanding are as  
follows (in thousands): 
 
        1997                 $  7,065 
        1998                   10,936

                             ======== 
 
The Debentures are due on June 23, 2001 and are exchangeable for shares  
of the Trust at a rate of one share for each $20 outstanding principal  
amount of Debentures, subject to certain adjustments.  The initial  
interest rate on the Debentures was 8% and increases with increases in  
the dividend payment on the Company's Common Shares of Beneficial  
Interest.  At the current $.41 per share per quarter dividend payment  
rate, the effective interest rate on the Debentures is 8.2%.  During the  
year ended December 31, 1996, the Company paid sums aggregating $1.0  
million to facilitate the conversion of $58.7 million of Debentures into  
2,934,300 common shares.  During the year ended December 31, 1996, $2.9  
million of related deferred financing costs were written off through  
additional paid-in capital. 
 
The Lines of Credit are composed of two secured lines of credit (the  
"$250 million Line of Credit" and the "$80 million Line of Credit").   
The $250 million Line of Credit is secured and is due on June 15, 1998  
at which time it may be converted into a two year term loan with the  
payment of a conversion fee equal to 1/2% of the then outstanding  
balance.  As of December 31, 1996, the $250 million Line of Credit was  
fully collateralized and $241.7 million was outstanding. The interest  
rate on the $250 million Line of Credit is 30-day LIBOR plus 1.75%  
(7.13% and 7.75% at December 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively). Other  
normal and customary fees apply including an unused line fee. The $250  
million Line of Credit is recourse to the Company only with respect to  
50% of the outstanding principal thereof and is otherwise non-recourse

subject to certain conditions.  At December 31, 1996, 109 properties  
with a book value of $387.6 million collateralized the $250 million Line  
of Credit.  During 1996, the Company closed on an $80 million Line of  
Credit.  The $80 million Line of Credit is secured and is due on  
December 13, 1998.  At any time prior to December 13, 1998, maturity may  
be extended for one year subject to certain conditions and the payment  
of an extension fee equal to 1/4% of the total commitment.  As of  
December 31, 1996, collateral had been approved to enable the Company to  
borrow up to $56.0 million, of which $25.0 million was outstanding.  The  
interest rate on the $80 million Line of Credit is 90-day LIBOR plus  
1.60% (7.13% at December 31, 1996).  At December 31, 1996, 23 properties  
with a book value of $64.5 million, and 2 development properties with a  
book value of $3.9   million collateralized the $80 million Line of  
Credit. 
 
In 1994, the Company recognized a gain on extinguishment of debt which  
resulted primarily from the payment of mortgage notes and notes payable  
including penalties and accrued interest at a discount with $451.8  
million in proceeds obtained from the issuance of shares and the close  
of the Debenture offering. 
 
The fair value of the Debentures at December 31, 1996 was $220.4 million  
based on the closing bid price of the security on the New York Stock  
Exchange.  The fair values of the mortgages and Lines of Credit were  
estimated using discounted cash flow analysis, based on the Company's  
estimated incremental borrowing rate at December 31, 1996, for similar  
types of borrowing arrangements.  The carrying values of the mortgages  
and the Lines of Credit approximate their fair values.

                             ======== 
 
In addition to minimum rental payments, tenants pay for their pro rata  
share of specified operating expenses.  These amounts are included as  
operating expense reimbursement in the accompanying statements of  
operations.  
 
7.   COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES 
 
All of the Properties have been subject to Phase I Environmental  
Assessments ("Phase I Assessments") performed and obtained in  

                                -72-



contemplation of the formation or acquisitions.  The Phase I Assessments  
consisted of, among other activities, a visual inspection of each  
Property and its neighborhood and a check of pertinent public records.   
The Phase I Assessments did not reveal, nor is the Company aware of, any  
non-compliance with environmental laws, environmental liability or other  
environmental claim that the Company believes would likely have a  
material adverse effect on the Company. 
 
The Trust is not a party to any material legal proceedings.  In the  
ordinary course of business, the Operating Partnership is party to  
ordinary routine litigation incidental to its business and in addition  
it is covered by insurance. 
 
The Company has entered into an interest rate swap agreement to hedge  
against possible fluctuations in interest rates in anticipation of a  
$120 million debt issuance in 1997 for a five to seven year term.  The  
securities underlying the interest rate swap agreement, with a notional  
amount of $114.5 million, are 5.875% US Treasury securities maturing on  
February 15, 2004.  Gain or loss on this hedging transaction is being  
deferred and will be amortized as adjustments to interest expense  
commencing on the date of issuance of the debt and over the term of the  
debt.  At December 31, 1996, the Company had one swap transaction  
outstanding, and approximately $645,000 in unrealized gain has been  
deferred.
