PART I INTRODUCTION This Annual Report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1993, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Such forward-looking statements include, without limitation, statements concerning anticipated improvements in financial operations from completed and planned property renovations, and benefits from the Company's acquisition of Apple Residential Income Trust, Inc. Such statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause the actual results, performance or achievement of the Company to be materially different from the results of operations or plans expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Such factors include, among other things, unanticipated adverse business developments affecting the Company or the properties, as the case may be, adverse changes in the real estate markets and general and local economies and business conditions. Although the Company believes that the assumptions underlying the forward-looking statements contained herein are reasonable, any of the assumptions could be inaccurate, and therefore there can be no assurance that such statements included in this annual report will prove to be accurate. In light of the significant uncertainties inherent in the forward-looking statements included herein, the inclusion of such information should not be regarded as a representation by the Company or any other person that the results or conditions described in such statements or the objectives and plans of the Company will be achieved. In addition, the Company's continued qualification as a real estate investment trust ("REIT") involves the application of highly technical and complex provisions of the Internal Revenue Code. Readers should carefully review the Company's financial statements and the notes thereto, as well as the risk factors described in the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. ITEM 1. Business Cornerstone Realty Income Trust, Inc. (together with its subsidiaries, the "Company") is a Virginia corporation and was incorporated in August 1989. Initial capitalization occurred on August 18, 1992. Operations of rental property commenced on June 1, 1993. The business of the Company is to acquire and operate existing residential apartment complexes located in the southern United States. As of December 31, 1999, the Company owned 87 apartment communities, which comprised a total of 20,965 apartment units. The Company's apartment 2 communities are located in Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Texas and Virginia. The Company's property acquisitions are described in Item 2 of this report, which is hereby incorporated herein by reference. The Company directly owns all of its properties in Georgia and Virginia. In other states, the Company owns its properties through its wholly-owned or majority-owned subsidiaries. The Company is a self-administered and self-managed equity REIT headquartered in Richmond, Virginia. The Company is a fully integrated real estate organization with expertise in the management, acquisition and renovation of apartment communities. The Company maintains an intense focus on the operations of its properties to generate consistent, sustained growth in net operating income ("NOI"), which it believes is the key to growing funds from operations per common share. The Company believes that successful implementation of this strategy will allow it to continue to increase its NOI from its apartment portfolio. Through renovation and enhanced property management of the apartment communities, the Company strives to increase cash flows, thereby adding value to the underlying real estate. The Company's objective is to increase distributable cash flow and common share value by: o Increasing rental rates, maintaining high economic occupancy rates, and controlling costs at the properties; and o Acquiring additional properties at attractive prices that provide the opportunity to improve operating performance through the application of the Company's management, marketing, and renovation programs. The Company has nine regional property management offices, which are located in the following cities: Atlanta, Georgia; Raleigh, Charlotte and Wilmington, North Carolina; Columbia, South Carolina; Dallas and Fort Worth, Texas; and Blacksburg and Virginia Beach, Virginia. As of December 31, 1999, the Company had approximately 625 employees, including specialists in acquisition, management, marketing, leasing, development, accounting and information systems. The Company's executive officers have substantial experience with apartment properties, having been responsible for the management, acquisition and renovation of more than 25,000 apartment units over the last 25 years using the strategies and techniques described below. The Company's top three executive officers have an average of approximately 20 years each in the management, acquisition and renovation of residential apartment communities. Growth through Management and Leasing The Company seeks to increase net operating income through active property management, which includes keeping rental rates at or above market levels, maintaining high economic occupancy through tenant retention, creating a property identity, effectively marketing each property, and controlling operating expenses at the property level. Management develops the overall management and leasing strategy, including goals and budgets, for each property. To achieve each property's objectives, management delegates significant decision-making responsibility to regional and on-site employees, thereby instilling in 3 its employees a sense of ownership of their property. Management believes that this strategy is an effective way to maximize each property's potential. To achieve desired results, the Company emphasizes training for its on-site employees as well as raising rents to be at or above the market for comparable properties. The Company also ties on-site employees' bonuses to both net operating income targets established for their respective properties and the Company's overall financial performance. Management believes that tenant retention is critical to generating net operating income growth. Tenant retention maintains or increases economic occupancy and minimizes the costs associated with preparing apartments for new occupants. The Company employs one person at each property who has a primary focus on tenant retention. The tenant retention specialist's objective is to make tenants feel at home in the community through personal attention, which includes organizing social functions and activities as well as responding promptly to any tenant problems that may arise in conjunction with the apartment or community. The Company's philosophy is to market its properties continually to existing tenants in order to achieve a low turnover rate. The Company believes that the turnover rate of its properties is below the average turnover rate for comparable apartment communities. The Company seeks to create a unique identity for each property by emphasizing curb appeal, signage, and attractive common area facilities, such as clubhouses and swimming pools. The Company has upgraded or renovated many of the properties' common area facilities after acquisition. Each property is marketed as a "Cornerstone Community" but typically has an individual property name tied to a local theme. Each property has a dedicated on-site marketing person whose responsibility is to position and market the property within the local community through such activities as media advertising, on-site promotional events and personal calls to local businesses. Operating expenses are controlled at each property by setting budgets at the corporate level and requiring that any expense over budget at a property be approved by management. Purchase discounts are sought at both the corporate level and locally in those areas where the Company has a significant presence. All contracts for goods and services are re-bid annually to ensure competitive pricing. The Company has a preventive maintenance program and the ability to perform work using in-house personnel, which helps the Company to reduce expenses at the properties. For example, the maintenance manager at each property is qualified to perform HVAC and plumbing work which otherwise would be contracted outside the Company. In addition, the Company passes through expenses to tenants by sub-metering of water and sewer to tenants where local and state regulations allow. Growth through Acquisitions, Renovations and Expansion The Company seeks to generate growth in net operating income through acquisitions by: (i) acquiring under-performing assets at less than replacement cost; (ii) correcting operational problems; (iii) making selected renovations; (iv) increasing economic occupancy; (v) raising rental rates; (vi) implementing cost controls; and (vii) providing enhanced property and centralized management. In markets that it targets for acquisition opportunities, the Company attempts to gain a significant local presence in order to achieve operating efficiencies. In analyzing acquisition opportunities, the Company considers acquisitions of property portfolios as well as individual properties. 4 The Company has demonstrated an ability to grow through acquisitions. The Company's first two properties were acquired in June of 1993. As of December 31, 1999, the Company owned and operated 87 apartment communities. The Company analyzes specific criteria in connection with a proposed acquisition. These criteria include: (i) the market in which a property is located and whether it has a diversified economy, stable employment base and increasing average household income; (ii) the property's current and projected cash flow and the ability to increase net operating income; (iii) the condition and design of the property and whether the property can benefit from renovations; (iv) historical and projected occupancy rates; (v) geographic location in light of the Company's diversification objectives; and (vi) the purchase price of the property as it relates to the cost of new construction. The Company believes it has been and will be able to purchase properties at less than replacement cost based on deferred maintenance, management neglect, or the prior owner's financial distress. Upon acquisition, the Company seeks to improve both operating results and property identity through a 24-month renovation policy which includes selective renovations such as new roofs, new exterior siding, exterior painting, clubhouse renovation and construction, and interior refurbishment. The Company has invested in renovations to its properties in the approximate amounts of $30 million in 1999, $26 million in 1998, $23 million in 1997, and $19.0 million in 1996. The Company has also made, and may in the future make, acquisitions of established apartment communities involved in foreclosure proceedings. In this situation, the Company seeks properties that have below market-rate leases, correctable vacancy problems or inefficient property management. The Company also may make acquisitions of properties from over-leveraged owners of properties, governmental regulatory authorities, lending institutions that have taken control of such properties, mortgagees-in-possession and, possibly, through bankruptcy reorganization proceedings. If sufficient tenant demand exists and suitable land is available, the Company may construct additional apartment units on land adjacent to certain properties. The Company believes that its successful experience with large-scale property renovation will also permit strategic and cost-effective property expansion. It is the Company's policy to acquire such additional apartment units on a "turn-key" basis from a third party contractor, thereby minimizing the risks normally associated with development and lease-up. As of December 31, 1999, the Company had planned expansion projects for two existing properties: Glen Eagles and The Meadows. Glen Eagles is a 166-unit apartment community located in Winston-Salem, North Carolina. The land adjacent to the community will accommodate approximately 220 additional apartment units which can be served by existing amenities. At The Meadows, a 176-unit community in Asheville, North Carolina, there is additional land for approximately 250 additional apartment units. The Company acquired these adjacent parcels and transferred them to a developer for construction and lease-up of the 5 additional apartment units. These parcels and the additional apartments are subject to repurchase by the Company, which is contingent on a number of factors, including the achievement of certain occupancy levels and compliance with various time commitments. The construction at the Meadows has been completed, and the Company repurchased the property on March 16, 2000. The Company does not have interests in any land adjacent to any other properties it now owns, but may acquire land or options to acquire land of this type adjacent to other properties it may acquire in the future. Acquisition of Apple Residential Income Trust, Inc. On July 23, 1999, the Company acquired Apple Residential Income Trust, Inc. ("Apple"). As a result, the Company acquired 29 apartment communities containing 7,503 apartment homes. The acquisition qualified as a tax-free reorganization and was accounted for under the purchase method of accounting. The acquisition was structured as a merger of Apple into a majority-owned subsidiary of the Company. The aggregate purchase price was approximately $311 million. Under the terms of the merger agreement, each Apple shareholder received 0.4 of the Company's Series A Convertible Preferred Shares for each common share of Apple. A total of 12,666,019 of the Company's Series A Convertible Preferred Shares were issued as a result of the merger. The Series A Convertible Preferred Shares have a first year dividend rate of $2.125, which will increase to $2.25 in the second year and $2.375 in the third year and thereafter. Each Series A Convertible Preferred Share reflects a conversion price of $15.80 per common share of the Company. After five years, the Series A Convertible Preferred Shares will be redeemable at $25 per share plus any accrued dividends, at the option of the Company, in whole or in part, for cash or stock, subject to certain conditions. In addition, the company assumed approximately $32 million of Apple's debt with an effective interest rate of approximately 6.475%. No goodwill was recorded as a result of this transaction. Financing Policy The Company's objective is to seek capital as needed at the lowest possible cost. In addition to obtaining capital from future sales of common shares, the Company may obtain capital from lines of credit or other secured or unsecured borrowings. On September 29, 1999, the Company received a loan in the principal amount of $73.5 million from The Prudential Insurance Company of America. The loan is secured by ten properties. The loan is interest only, paid monthly, and bears interest at a fixed interest rate of 7.29% per annum with a maturity date of September, 2006. The proceeds were used to pay down short-term debt and to curtail the Company's existing line of credit as described below. In connection with the Apple merger, the Company assumed six mortgage notes with a principal amount of $30.8 million. These mortgages were recorded at a fair value of $32 million at the date of assumption. The difference between the fair value and the principal is being amortized as an adjustment to interest expense over the term of the respective notes. Prepayment penalties apply for early retirements. Scheduled maturities are at various dates through December 2005. At December 31, 1999 the balance of the mortgage note payable was $31,545,682. Mortgage notes payable are due in monthly installments, including principal and interest. 6 During 1999, the Company's $175 million Unsecured Line of Credit was increased to $185 million and the maturity date was extended to July 9, 2002. The lenders are a syndicate of banks with First Union National Bank as agent. The Unsecured Line of Credit currently bears interest equal to one-month LIBOR plus 1.20%. The interest rate is adjusted monthly and the formula for determination of the interest rate can change based on changes in financial condition and debt level of the Company. At December 31, 1999, the Company had an unused borrowing capacity of $35 million under the Unsecured Line of Credit. In addition, the Company is obligated to pay lenders a quarterly commitment fee equal to .20% per annum of the unused portion of the line. At December 31, 1999, borrowings under the agreement was $150 million. During 1999, the Company increased its $5 million unsecured line of credit for general corporate purposes to $7.5 million. This line of credit bears interest at LIBOR plus 1.20%, adjusted monthly, and the maturity date was extended to October 31, 2000. On December 31, 1999, the outstanding balance on this loan was $7.5 million. The Company intends to maintain a debt policy limit in which the Company's total combined indebtedness plus its pro rata share of indebtedness of any unconsolidated investments ("Joint Venture Debt") is limited to 40% of the Company's total equity market capitalization plus its combined indebtedness (including its pro rata share of Joint Venture Debt). Environmental Matters In connection with each of its property acquisitions, the Company obtains a Phase I Environment Report, and such additional environmental reports and surveys as are necessitated by such preliminary report. Based on such reports, the Company is not aware of any environmental situations requiring remediation at its properties which have not been or are not currently being remediated as necessary. Recent Developments Effective as of March 10, 2000, the Company sold 16 apartment communities for a gross selling price of $136.5 million. These apartment communities had a net book value, after depreciation, of approximately $105 million at December 31, 1999. ITEM 2. Properties Property Descriptions and Characteristics As of December 31, 1999, the Company owned 87 apartment communities, which comprised a total of 20,965 apartment units. Those apartment communities were located in Georgia (7 communities), North Carolina (31 communities), South Carolina (8 communities), Texas (29 communities), and Virginia (12 communities).

ITEM 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders None. 12 PART II ITEM 5. Market for Registrant's Common Equity and Related Stockholder Matters The Company's common shares are traded on the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE"). The common shares were listed on the NYSE under the symbol "TCR" on April 18, 1997. Before that date, there was no active trading market for the common shares. The following table sets forth the high and low sale prices on the NYSE for the common shares (as reported by the NYSE) and the cash distributions declared and paid for each quarterly period indicated. On March 15, 2000, the last reported sale price on the NYSE was $10.375 per common share. - ------------------------------------- ---------------- ----------------- --------------------- Cash Distribution 1998 High Low Per Common Share - ---- ---- --- ---------------- First Quarter $ 13.25 $ 11.875 $ 0.25 Second Quarter 12.6875 11.125 0.26 Third Quarter 12.125 10.25 0.26 Fourth Quarter 11.25 10.25 0.26 1999 - ---- First Quarter $ 11.125 $ 9.00 $ 0.26 Second Quarter 10.9375 9.625 0.27 Third Quarter 10.625 9.00 0.27 Fourth Quarter 10.6875 9.0625 0.27 - ------------------------------------- ---------------- ----------------- --------------------- Distributions of $42,050,415 and $38,317,602 were made to the shareholders during 1999 and 1998, respectively. The timing and amounts of distributions to shareholders are within the discretion of the Company's board of directors. Future distributions will depend on the Company's results of operations, cash flow from operations, economic conditions and other factors, such as working capital, cash requirements to fund investing and financing activities, capital expenditure requirements, including improvements to and expansions of properties and the acquisition of additional properties, as well as the distribution requirements under federal income tax provisions for qualification as a REIT. The Company's distributions to its shareholders also may be limited by the agreement pertaining to the Company's Unsecured Line of Credit. For federal income tax purposes, distributions paid to common shareholders may consist of ordinary income, capital gains distributions, non-taxable return of capital, or a combination thereof. Distributions constitute ordinary income to the extent of the Company's current and accumulated earnings and profits. Distributions which exceed the Company's current and accumulated earnings and profits constitute a return of capital rather than a dividend to the extent of a shareholder's basis in his common shares and reduce the shareholder's basis in the common 13 shares. To the extent that a distribution exceeds both the Company's current and accumulated earnings and profits and the shareholder's basis in his common shares, it is generally treated as gain from the sale or exchange of that shareholder's common shares. The Company notifies shareholders annually as to the taxability of distributions paid during the preceding year. In 1999, approximately 11% of distributions represented a return of capital, and the balance represented ordinary income. The Company has a Dividend Reinvestment and Share Purchase Plan under which any record holder of common shares may reinvest cash dividends and may invest additional cash payments of up to $15,000 per quarter in common shares. On July 23, 1999, in connection with the Apple merger, the Company issued 12,666,019 Series A Convertible Preferred Shares, each of which is convertible into 1.5823 of the Company's common shares, reflecting a conversion price of $15.80 per common share of the Company. The Series A Convertible Preferred Shares are non-voting and have a liquidation preference of $25 per share of the Company's common shares. After five years, the Series A Convertible Preferred Shares are redeemable at $25 per share plus any accrued dividends, at the option of the Company, in whole or in part, for cash or stock, subject to certain conditions. The Company is imputing dividends calculated as the present value difference between the perpetual preferred stock distribution and the stated distribution rate. The imputed dividend is reflected as additional preferred stock distributions. The Series A Convertible Preferred Shares are not listed on any exchange. On March 15, 2000, the Company's common shares were held by 128 record shareholders. ITEM 6.
