the Company. The options were issued with an exercise price of $20 per share and
each option has a ten-year term. One third of the options became exercisable on
June 30, 1998 and June 30, 1999 and the remaining options become exercisable on
June 30, 2000.

    The table below provides the hypothetical gains or 'option spreads' that
would result for the respective options based on assumed rates of annual
compounded stock price appreciation of 5% and 10% from the date the options were
granted through the expiration dates of the options.

    As of March 31, 2000, no stock options had been exercised by the executive
officers of the Company. All stock options granted in 1998 were deemed to have
nominal value as of December 31, 1999.

          COMPENSATION COMMITTEE INTERLOCKS AND INSIDER PARTICIPATION

    Mr. Asheroff and Mr. Fayne serve on the Compensation Committee of the
Company. The Compensation Committee had one meeting in 1999. Certain executive
officers of the Company received compensation under the Company's Stock
Incentive Plan. See 'Executive Compensation'.

      COMPLIANCE WITH SECTION 16(a) OF THE SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934

    Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act requires the Company's officers
and directors, and persons who own more than 10% of a registered class of the
Company's equity securities, to file reports of securities ownership and changes
in ownership with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the 'Commission'). The
Commission also requires officers, directors and greater than 10% stockholders
to furnish the Company with copies of all Section 16(a) forms that they file.
Based on a review of Section 16(a) reports furnished to the Company, the Company
believes that all Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to its officers,
Directors and greater than 10% beneficial owners were met through December 31,
1999.

                 CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

    The Company is subject to conflicts of interest involving the Manager
because, among other reasons, (1) the Manager advises other entities and many
investments appropriate for the Company may also be appropriate for one or more
of these entities, (2) all of the officers of the Company, and two of its
directors, are officers of the Manager and (3) in accordance with the terms of
the Management Agreement between the Company and the Manager (the 'Management
Agreement'), the Manager earns an incentive fee that may create an incentive for
the Manager to recommend riskier or more speculative investments. Nevertheless,
the Manager intends to conduct its operations in a manner that will attempt to
minimize the negative effect of any conflicts of interest. Moreover, a majority
of the Company's Board of Directors must be Independent Directors.

    Under the terms of the Management Agreement, the Company will pay the
Manager an annual base management fee equal to 1% of the average stockholders'
equity. The Company will also pay the Manager, as incentive compensation, an
amount equal to 25% of the Adjusted Net Income of Clarion,


                                       6







before incentive compensation, in excess of the amount that would produce an
annualized return on equity equal to 2.5% over the Ten-Year U.S. Treasury.

    In accordance with the terms of the Management Agreement, the Company paid
$575,928 and $495,596 in base management fees for the year ended December 31,
1999 and for the period June 2, 1998 (commencement of operations) to
December 31, 1998, respectively. The Company has not accrued for, or paid, the
Manager any incentive compensation since inception.

    The Management Agreement does not limit or restrict the Manager or any of
its officers, directors, employees or affiliates from engaging in any business
or rendering services of any kind to any other entity. The ability of the
Manager and its officers and employees to engage in other business activities
could reduce the time and effort the Manager spends managing the Company.

                               PERFORMANCE GRAPH

    The following graph compares the cumulative total returns for the Company's
common stock (CLR) through March 31, 2000 with the S&P 500 index and the SNL
All-REIT Index for the same period. Total return equals change in stock price
plus dividends paid and assumes that all dividends are reinvested. The
information has been obtained from sources believed to be reliable, but neither
its accuracy nor its completeness is guaranteed. The performance graph is not
necessarily indicative of future investment performance.
