Fund VIII-IX-REIT Joint Venture On January 10, 1997, the Fund VIII-Fund IX Joint Venture acquired a two-story office building containing approximately 65,006 rentable square feet on a 4.4-acre tract of land located at 15253 Bake Parkway, in the Irvine Spectrum planned business community in metropolitan Orange -22- County, California (the "Quest Building"), formerly the Bake Parkway Building. The total consideration paid for the building was $7,193,000 excluding acquisition expenses. The funds used by the Fund VIII-Fund IX Joint Venture to acquire the Quest Building were derived entirely from capital contributions made to the Fund VIII-Fund IX Joint Venture by Wells Fund IX and Wells Fund VIII. Wells Fund IX and Wells Fund VIII made capital contributions of approximately $3,608,109 and $3,620,316, respectively, to fund the purchase of the building, for total capital contributions to the Fund VIII-Fund IX Joint Venture with respect to the Quest Building of approximately $7,228,425. On June 15, 2000, the Fund VIII-IX-REIT Joint Venture was formed between Wells OP and Fund VIII and Fund IX Associates, a Georgia joint venture partnership between Wells Real Estate Fund VIII, L.P. and Wells Real Estate Fund IX, L.P. (the "Fund VIII-IX Joint Venture"). On July 1, 2000, the Fund VIII-IX Joint Venture contributed its interest in the Bake Parkway Property to the Fund VIII-IX-REIT Joint Venture. A 42-month lease for the entire Bake Parkway Building has been signed by Quest Software, Inc. Occupancy occurred on August 1, 2000. Quest is a publicly traded corporation that provides software database management and disaster recovery services for its clients. Construction of tenant improvements required under the Quest lease cost approximately $1,231,000 and was funded by Wells OP. As of December 31, 2000, Wells OP held a 15.7% equity interest in the Fund VIII-IX-REIT Joint Venture. On February 18, 1999, Wells Op entered into a Rental Income Guaranty Agreement with Fund VIII and Fund IX Associates, whereby Wells OP guaranteed the VIII-IX Joint Venture that it would receive rental income on the Bake Parkway Building previously leased to Matsushita Avionics at least equal to the rental and building expenses that the VIII-IX Joint Venture would have received over the remaining term of its original lease with Matsushita Avionics. Under the Rental Income Guaranty Agreement, Wells OP also guaranteed that, if a joint venture such as the VIII-IX-REIT Joint Venture was ever formed by the parties for the ownership and operation of the Bake Parkway Building, Wells OP would guarantee to the VIII-IX Joint Venture that it would receive monthly cash flow distributions from such joint venture at least equal to the rent and building expenses guaranteed under the Rental Income Guaranty Agreement. Wells OP had paid approximately $595,000 in rental income guaranty payments to the VIII-IX Joint Venture through December 31, 2000, but has since ceased making such payments since the Bake Parkway Building is now fully leased to Quest. Our maximum liability exposure to the VIII-IX Joint Venture for rental income and building expenses potentially payable under this Rental Income Guaranty Agreement of approximately $3,000,000 was taken into account in the economic analysis performed in making the determination to go forward with the development of the Matsushita Building. Although the lease of the Bake Parkway Building by Quest has, at least temporarily, relieved Wells OP of its obligations under the Rental Income Guaranty Agreement, we cannot, at this time, determine the amount Wells OP continues to guaranty payment under the Rental Income Guaranty Agreement and, consequently, continues to bear some risk, even though their risk has been substantially minimized by the lease with Quest. Any payment made to the VIII-IX Joint Venture under the Rental Income Guaranty Agreement will be made from investor proceeds of the Company. The average effective rental per square foot at the Quest Building is $13.72 for 2000, $10.11 for 1999, and $10.32 for 1998. The occupancy rate at year end was 100% in 2000, 1999, 1998 and 1997. -23- The Alstom Power-Richmond Building The Alstom Power-Richmond Building (formerly known as the ABB-Richmond Building) is a four-story brick office building containing 99,057 gross square feet located in Midlothian, Virginia.

MARKET FOR COMPANY'S COMMON STOCK AND RELATED SECURITY HOLDER MATTERS As of February 28, 2001, the Company had 35,055,988 shares of common stock outstanding held by a total of 8,318 shareholders. The current offering price per share is $10. There is no established public trading mark for the Company's common stock. Under the Company's Articles of Incorporation, restrictions are imposed on ownership and transfer of shares. As set forth in the "ERISA Considerations--Annual Valuation" section of the Company's Prospectus currently effective with the SEC, until December 31, 2002, the per share net asset value shall be deemed to be the offering price of our shares, which is currently $10.00 per share. This valuation is supported by the fact that the Company is currently selling shares to the public at a price of $10.00 per share. The Company will make distributions each taxable year (not including a return of capital for federal income tax purposes) equal to at least 95% of its real taxable income for taxable years prior to 2001 and 90% of its taxable income for all future years beginning with the year 2001. The Company intends to make regular quarterly dividend distributions to holders of the shares. Dividends will be made to those shareholders who are shareholders as of daily record dates selected by the Directors. Dividends will be paid on a quarterly basis. Dividend distributions made to the shareholders during 2000 and 1999 were as follows: Total Investment Return of Cash ---------- --------- Distribution for Quarter Ended Distributed Income Capital ------------------------------------ ------------ ----------- -------- March 31, 1999 $ 628,385 $0.174 $0.00 June 30, 1999 1,121,457 0.175 0.00 September 30, 1999 1,646,751 0.175 0.00 December 31, 1999 2,168,330 0.175 0.00 March 31, 2000 2,634,251 0.175 0.00 June 30, 2000 3,321,189 0.181 0.00 September 30, 2000 4,477,865 0.188 0.00 December 31, 2000 5,396,113 0.188 0.00 Distribution The fourth quarter dividend distributions, through December 15, for 2000 were paid to shareholders in December 2000.

SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA The Company commenced active operations when it received and accepted subscriptions for a minimum of 125,000 shares on June 5, 1998. The following sets forth a summary of the selected financial data for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998. 2000 1999 1998 ---------------- --------------- -------------- Total assets $398,550,346 $143,852,290 $42,832,573 Total revenues 23,373,206 6,495,395 395,178 Net income 8,552,967 3,884,649 334,034 Net income allocated to Shareholders 8,552,967 3,884,649 334,034 Earning per share: Basic and diluted $0.40 $0.50 $0.40 Cash distributions 0.73 0.70 0.31 ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITIONS AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the Selected Financial Data and the accompanying financial statements of the Company and notes thereto. This Report contains forward-looking statements, within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, including discussion and analysis of the financial condition of the Company, anticipated capital expenditures required to complete certain projects, amounts of cash distributions anticipated to be distributed to shareholders in the future and certain other matters. Readers of this Report should be aware that there are various factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from any forward-looking statement made in the Report, which include changes in general economic conditions, charges in real estate conditions construction costs which may exceed estimates, construction delays, increases in interest rates, lease-up risks, inability to obtain new tenants upon the expiration of existing leases, and the potential need to fund tenant improvements or other capital expenditures out of operating cash flow. Liquidity and Capital Resources General On January 30, 1998, the Company commenced a public offering of up to 16,500,000 shares of common stock at $10 per share pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-11 filed under the Securities Act of 1933. The Company commenced active operations on June 5, 1998, when it received and accepted subscription for 125,000 shares. The Company terminated its initial public offering on December 19, 1999. The Company received gross proceeds of approximately $132,181,919 from the sale of approximately 13,218,192 shares from its initial public offering. The Company commenced its second public offering of shares of common stock of the Wells REIT on December 20, 1999, which was terminated on December 19, 2000. The Company received gross proceeds of approximately $175,229,193 from the sale of approximately 17,522,919 shares from the second public offering. The Company commenced its third public offering of the shares of common stock on December 20, 2000. As of December 31, 2000, the Company has received gross proceeds of approximately $7,686,958 from the -33- sale of approximately 768,696 shares from its third public offering. Accordingly, as of December 31, 2000, the Company has received aggregate gross offering proceeds of approximately $315,098,070 from the sale of 31,509,807 shares of its common stock to 7,422 investors. After payment of $10,978,981 in Acquisition and Advisory Fees and Expenses, payment of $39,209,638 in selling commissions and organization and offering expenses, capital contributions to joint ventures and acquisitions expenditures by Wells OP of $262,118,082 in property acquisitions, and common stock redemptions of $1,412,969 pursuant to the Company's share redemption program, the Company was holding net offering proceeds of $1,378,400 available for investment in properties, as of December 31, 2000. Gross revenues of the Company of $23,373,206 for the year ended December 31, 2000 were attributable to rental income, interest income earned on funds held by the Company prior to the investment in properties, and income earned from joint ventures. Expenses of the Company were $14,820,239 for the year ended December 31, 2000, and consisted primarily of depreciation, rental expenses, administrative, accounting fees, and printing expenses. Net increase in cash and cash equivalents is primarily the result of raising $180,387,220 in common stock capital contributions offset by acquisition and advisory fees and expenses, commissions, offering costs, capital contributions to joint ventures, and distributions received from joint ventures. Operating cash flows are expected to increase as additional properties are added to the Company's investment portfolio. Dividends to be distributed to the shareholders are determined by the Board of Directors and are dependent upon a number of factors relating to the Company, including funds available for payment of dividends, financial condition, capital expenditure requirements and annual distribution requirements in order to maintain our status as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). The Company has made an election under Section 856 (c) of the Code be taxed as a REIT under the Code beginning with its taxable year ended December 31, 1999. As a REIT for federal income tax purposes, the Company generally will not be subject to Federal income tax on income that it distributes to its stockholders. If the Company fails to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, it will be subject to federal income tax on its taxable income at regular corporate rates and will not be permitted to qualify for treatment as a REIT for federal income tax purposes for four years following the year during which qualification is lost. Such an event could materially adversely affect the Company's net income. However, the Company believes that it is organized and operates in such a manner as to qualify for treatment as a REIT for the year ended December 31, 2000. In addition, the Company intends to continue to operate the Company so as to remain qualified as a REIT for federal income tax purposes. As of December 31, 2000, the Company had acquired an interest in 29 real estate properties. These properties are generating sufficient cash flow to cover the Company's operating expenses and pay dividends. The Company pays dividends on a quarterly basis regardless of the frequency with which such distributions are declared. Dividends will be paid to investors who are shareholders as of the record dates selected by the Board of Directors. The Company currently calculates quarterly dividends based upon daily record and dividend declaration dates so shareholders will be entitled to be paid dividends immediately upon their purchase of shares. Dividends declared during 2000 and 1999 totaled $.73 per share and $.70 per share, respectively. On February 18, 1999, Wells OP entered into a Rental Income Guaranty Agreement with the Fund VIII-IX Joint Venture (the "VIII-IX Joint Venture"). The Rental Income Guaranty Agreement provided for a guarantee by Wells OP to the VIII-IX Joint Venture that it would receive rental income on the Quest Building (formerly the Bake Parkway Building) previously leased to Matsushita Avionics at least equal to the rental and building expenses that the VIII-IX Joint Venture would have received over the -34- remaining term of its original lease with Matsushita Avionics. Matsushita Avionics vacated the Quest Building in December 1999, with the existing lease term ending in September 2003, in order to occupy the Matsushita Building developed and constructed by Wells OP. On June 15, 2000, the Wells Fund VIII- Fund IX-REIT Joint Venture (the "VIII-IX-REIT Joint Venture") was formed between Wells OP and the VIII-IX Joint Venture for purposes of owning and operating the Quest Building. On July 1, 2000, the VIII-IX Joint Venture transferred the Quest Building to the VIII-IX-REIT Joint Venture as its capital contribution. Under the Rental Income Guaranty Agreement, Wells OP also guaranteed that, if a joint venture such as the VIII-IX-REIT Joint Venture was ever formed by the parties for the ownership and operation of the Quest Building, Wells OP would guaranty to the VIII-IX Joint Venture that it would receive monthly cash flow distributions from such joint venture at least equal to the rent and building expenses guaranteed under the Rental Income Guaranty Agreement. Currently the Quest Building is leased by Quest Software, Inc. (Quest) pursuant to a 42 month lease that expires on December 31, 2003. Wells OP had paid approximately $595,000 in rental income guaranty payments to the VIII-IX Joint Venture through December 31, 2000, and will continue making payments in the amount of $6,656 per month through January 2001 to cover initial rental concessions granted to Quest in order to induce Quest to rent the Quest Building. The Company's maximum liability exposure to the VIII-IX Joint Venture for rental income and building expenses potentially payable under this Rental Income Guaranty Agreement of approximately $3,000,000 was taken into account in the economic analysis performed in making the determination to go forward with the development of the Matsushita Building. Although the lease of the Quest Building by Quest has substantially reduced the Company's financial exposure under the Rental Income Guaranty Agreement, the Company cannot, at this time, determine the amount of any future liability if Quest defaults or otherwise fails to make the required payments under its lease. Wells OP continues to guaranty payment under the Rental Income Guaranty Agreement and, consequently, continues to bear some risk, even though their risk has been substantially minimized by the lease with Quest. Payments made to the VIII-IX Joint Venture under the Rental Income Guaranty Agreement are made from capital proceeds raised and are being capitalized over the term of the lease with Matsushita Avionics for the Matsushita Building. Cash Flows From Operating Activities The Company's net cash provided by operating activities was $7,319,639 in 2000, $4,008,275 in 1999 and $(275,549). The increase in net cash provided by operating activities was due primarily to the purchase of additional properties during 1999 and 2000. Cash Flows From Investing Activities The Company's net cash used in investing activities was $249,316,460 in 2000, $105,394,956 in 1999 and $33,500,807 in 1998. The increase in net cash used in investing activities was due primarily to the raising of additional capital and funds that have been invested in real property acquisitions. Cash Flows From Financing Activities The Company's net cash provided by financing activities was $243,365,318 in 2000, $96,337,082 in 1999 and $41,554,759 in 1998. The increase in net cash provided by financing activities was due primarily to the raising of additional capital and the corresponding increase in funds borrowed to purchase real properties. The Company raised $180,387,220 in offering proceeds for fiscal year ended December 31, 2000, as compared to $103,169,490 for fiscal year ended December 31, 1999 and $31,540,360 for fiscal year ended December 31, 1998. In addition, the Company received loan proceeds from financing secured by properties of $187,633,130 and repaid notes payable in the amount of $83,899,171 for fiscal year ended December 31, 2000. -35- Results of Operations As of December 31, 2000, the Company's real estate properties were 100% occupied by tenants. Gross revenues were $23,373,206 for fiscal year ended December 31, 2000, $6,495,395 for fiscal year ended December 31, 1999 and $395,178 for fiscal year ended December 31, 1998. The increase in revenues was due to the purchase of additional properties during 1999 and 2000. The purchase of additional properties also resulted in an increase in operating expenses, management and leasing fees, and depreciation expense. The Company's net income also increased from $334,034 for fiscal year ended December 31, 1998 to $3,884,649 for fiscal year ended December 31, 1999 to $8,552,967 for fiscal year ended December 31, 2000. Property Operations As of December 31, 2000, the Company owned interests in the following operational properties: The Alstom Power-Knoxville Building (formerly the ABB Building)/ IX-X-XI-REIT Joint Venture For the Years Ended --------------------------------------------------- 2000 1999 1998 ----------------- ---------------- ------------- Revenues: Rental income $ 1,185,573 $ 987,327 $836,746 Interest income 73,676 58,768 20,192 ------------ ----------- -------- 1,259,249 1,046,095 856,938 ------------ ----------- -------- Expenses: Depreciation 394,998 537,799 475,020 Management and leasing expenses 149,378 120,325 107,338 Operating costs, net of reimbursements (77,526) (2,532) (40,641) ------------ ----------- -------- 466,850 655,592 541,717 ------------ ----------- -------- Net income $ 792,399 $ 390,503 $315,221 ============ =========== ======== Occupied percentage 100% 98% 95% ============ =========== ======== Company's ownership percentage 3.7% 3.7% 3.8% ============ ========== ======== Cash distributed to the Company $ 43,995 $ 34,965 $ 21,965 ============ =========== ======== Net income allocated to the Company $ 29,445 $ 14,673 $ 9,453 ============ =========== ======== Rental income increased in 2000 over 1999 and 1998 due primarily to the increased occupancy level of the property. Other operating expenses were negative for 2000, 1999 and 1998 due to an offset of tenant reimbursements in operating costs, as well as management and leasing reimbursements. Tenants are billed an estimated amount for current year common area maintenance which is then reconciled the following year and the difference billed to the tenant. Total expenses decreased in 2000 due to a decrease in depreciation expense but increased for 1999 over 1998 due to increased depreciation and management and leasing fees as the building was leased up. The decrease in depreciation resulted from an accelerated depreciation on tenant improvement for a short-term lease in 1999 for 23,092 square feet. -36- Cash distributions and net income allocated to the Company increased in 2000 over prior year levels due to a combination of increased rental income and decreased operating expenses.

(a Maryland corporation) AND SUBSIDIARY as of December 31, 2000 and 1999 and the related consolidated statements of income, shareholders' equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2000. These financial statements and the schedule referred to below are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements and schedule based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and schedule 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 consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Wells Real Estate Investment Trust, Inc. and subsidiary as of December 31, 2000 and 1999 and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2000 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Our audits were made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. Schedule III--Real Estate Investments and Accumulated Depreciation as of December 31, 2000 is presented for purposes of complying with the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and is not part of the basic financial statements. This schedule has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, fairly states in all material respects the financial data required to be set forth therein in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

Use of Estimates and Factors Affecting the Company The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The carrying values of real estate are based on management's current intent to hold the real estate assets as long-term investments. The success of the Company's future operations and the ability to realize the investment in its assets will be dependent on the Company's ability to maintain rental rates, occupancy, and an appropriate level of operating expenses in future years. Management believes that the steps it is taking will enable the Company to realize its investment in its assets. Income Taxes The Company has elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), commencing with the taxable year ended December 31, 1998. As a result, the Company generally will not be subject to federal income taxation at the corporate level to the extent it distributes annually at least 95% (90% beginning in 2001) of its REIT taxable income, as defined in the Code, to its shareholders and satisfies certain other requirements. Additionally, the Operating Partnership is not subject to federal or state income taxes. Accordingly, no provision has been made for federal or state F-8 income taxes in the accompanying consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2000 and 1999. Real Estate Assets Real estate assets held by the Company and joint ventures are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Major improvements and betterments are capitalized when they extend the useful life of the related asset. All repair and maintenance are expensed as incurred. Management continually monitors events and changes in circumstances which could indicate that carrying amounts of real estate assets may not be recoverable. When events or changes in circumstances are present which indicate that the carrying amounts of real estate assets may not be recoverable, management assesses the recoverability of real estate assets by determining whether the carrying value of such real estate assets will be recovered through the future cash flows expected from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition. Management has determined that there has been no impairment in the carrying value of real estate assets held by the Company or the joint ventures as of December 31, 2000. Depreciation of building and improvements is calculated using the straight- line method over 25 years. Tenant improvements are amortized over the life of the related lease or the life of the asset, whichever is shorter. Revenue Recognition All leases on real estate assets held by the Company or the joint ventures are classified as operating leases, and the related rental income is recognized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the respective leases. Cash and Cash Equivalents For the purposes of the statements of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents include cash and short-term investments. Short-term investments are stated at cost, which approximates fair value, and consist of investments in money market accounts. Deferred Lease Acquisition Costs Costs incurred to procure operating leases are capitalized and amortized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the related leases. Earnings Per Share Earnings per share is calculated based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period. The weighted average number of common shares outstanding is identical for basic and fully diluted earnings per share, as there is no dilutive impact created from the Company's stock option plan (Note 10) using the treasury stock method. Reclassifications Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current year financial statement presentation. F-9 Investment in Joint Ventures Basis of Presentation The Operating Partnership does not have control over the operations of the joint ventures; however, it does exercise significant influence. Accordingly, the Operating Partnership's investment in the joint ventures is recorded using the equity method of accounting. Partners' Distributions and Allocations of Profit and Loss Cash available for distribution and allocations of profit and loss to the Operating Partnership by the joint ventures are made in accordance with the terms of the individual joint venture agreements. Generally, these items are allocated in proportion to the partners' respective ownership interests. Cash is paid from the joint ventures to the Operating Partnership on a quarterly basis. Deferred Lease Acquisition Costs Costs incurred to procure operating leases are capitalized and amortized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the related leases. 2. DEFERRED PROJECT COSTS The Company paid a percentage of shareholder contributions to the Advisor for acquisition and advisory services. These payments, as stipulated in the prospectus, can be up to 3.5% of shareholder contributions, subject to certain overall limitations contained in the prospectus. Aggregate fees paid through December 31, 2000 were $10,978,981 and amounted to 3.5% of shareholders' contributions received. These fees are allocated to specific properties as they are purchased or developed and are included in capitalized assets of the joint ventures or real estate assets. Deferred project costs at December 31, 2000 and 1999 represent fees not yet applied to properties. 3. DEFERRED OFFERING COSTS Offering expenses, to the extent they exceed 3% of gross offering proceeds, will be paid by the Advisor and not by the Company. Offering expenses do not include sales or underwriting commissions but do include such costs as legal and accounting fees, printing costs, and other offering expenses. As of December 31, 2000, the Advisor paid offering expenses on behalf of the Company in the aggregate amount of $10,700,925, of which the Advisor was reimbursed $9,409,549, which did not exceed the 3% limitation. The unpaid portion of deferred offering costs is $1,291,376 and is included in due to affiliate in the accompanying balance sheet. F-10 4. RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS Due from affiliates at December 31, 2000 represents the Operating Partnership's share of the cash to be distributed from its joint venture investments for the fourth quarter of 2000 and 1999 as follows: 2000 1999 --------- --------- Fund VIII, IX, and REIT Joint Venture $ 21,605 $ 0 Fund IX, X, XI, and REIT Joint Venture 12,781 32,079 Wells/Orange County Associates 24,583 75,953 Wells/Fremont Associates 53,974 152,681 Fund XI, XII, and REIT Joint Venture 136,648 387,641 Fund XII and REIT Joint Venture 49,094 0 The Advisor 10,995 0 Cinemark Building 424,606 0 --------- --------- $ 734,286 $ 648,354 ========= ========= The Company entered into a property management agreement with Wells Management Company, Inc. ("Wells Management"), an affiliate of the Advisor. In consideration for supervising the management and leasing of the Operating Partnership's properties, the Operating Partnership will pay Wells Management management and leasing fees equal to the lesser of (a) 4.5% of the gross revenues generally paid over the life of the lease, or (b) 0.6% of the net asset value of the properties (excluding vacant properties) owned by the Company, calculated on an annual basis plus a separate competitive fee for the one-time initial lease-up of newly constructed properties generally paid in conjunction with the receipt of the first month's rent. The Operating Partnership's portion of the management and leasing fees and lease acquisition costs paid to Wells Management, both directly and at the joint venture level, were $1,111,748, $336,517, and $0 for the years ended December 31, 2000, 1999, and 1998, respectively. The Advisor performs certain administrative services for the Operating Partnership, such as accounting and other partnership administration, and incurs the related expenses. Such expenses are allocated among the Operating Partnership and the various Wells Real Estate Funds based on time spent on each fund by individual administrative personnel. In the opinion of management, such allocation is a reasonable basis for allocating such expenses. The Advisor is a general partner in various Wells Real Estate Funds. As such, there may exist conflicts of interest where the Advisor, while serving in the capacity as general partner for Wells Real Estate Funds, may be in competition with the Operating Partnership for tenants in similar geographic markets.

SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY Common Stock Option Plan The Wells Real Estate Investment Trust, Inc. Independent Director Stock Option Plan ("the Plan") provides for grants of stock to be made to independent nonemployee directors of the Company. Options to purchase 2,500 shares of common stock at $12 per share are granted upon initially becoming an independent director of the Company. Of these shares, 20% are exercisable immediately on the date of grant. An additional 20% of these shares become exercisable on each anniversary following the date of grant for a period of four years. Effective on the date of each annual meeting of shareholders of the Company, beginning in 2000, each independent director will be granted an option to purchase 1,000 additional shares of common stock. These options vest at the rate of 500 shares per full year of service thereafter. All options granted under the Plan expire no later than the date immediately following the tenth anniversary of the date of grant and may expire sooner in the event of the disability or death of the optionee or if the optionee ceases to serve as a director. The Company has adopted the disclosure provisions in SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation." As permitted by the provisions of SFAS No. 123, the Company applies Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 and the related interpretations in accounting for its stock option plans and, accordingly, does not recognize compensation cost. F-33 A summary of the Company's stock option activity during 2000 and 1999 is as follows: Exercise Number Price ------ -------- Outstanding at December 31, 1998 0 $ 0 Granted 17,500 12 ------ -------- Outstanding at December 31, 1999 17,500 12 Granted 7,000 12 ------ -------- Outstanding at December 31, 2000 24,000 $ 12 ====== ======== Outstanding options exercisable as of December 31, 2000 7,000 $ 12 ====== ======== For SFAS No. 123 purposes, the fair value of each stock option for 2000 and 1999 has been estimated as of the date of the grant using the minimum value method. The weighted average risk-free interest rates assumed for 2000 and 1999 were 6.45% and 5.97%, respectively. Dividend yields of 7.3% were assumed for both years. The expected life of an option was assumed to be four years and five years for 2000 and 1999, respectively. Based on these assumptions, the fair value of the options granted during 2000 and 1999 is $0. Treasury Stock During 1999, the Company's Board of Directors authorized a dividend reinvestment program (the "DRP"), through which common shareholders may elect to reinvest an amount equal to the dividends declared on their common shares into additional shares of the Company's common stock in lieu of receiving cash dividends. During 2000, the Company's Board of Directors authorized a common stock repurchase plan subject to the amount reinvested in the Company's common shares through the DRP and 3% of the average common shares outstanding during the preceding year (the "limitations"). During 2000, the Company's Board of Directors authorized $2,436,495 in common stock repurchases. Accordingly, the Company repurchased 142,297 of its own common shares at an aggregate cost of $1,412,969. These transactions were funded with cash on hand and did not exceed either of the limitations. 11.
