PART I ITEM 1. BUSINESS. Atlantic Realty Trust, a Maryland real estate investment trust (together with its subsidiary, the "Trust"), was organized pursuant to a Declaration of Trust dated July 27, 1995 (as amended, the "Declaration of Trust"). The principal office of the Trust is located at 747 Third Avenue, New York, New York 10017. The Trust commenced operations on May 10, 1996 as a result of a spinoff (the "Spin-Off Transaction") from RPS Realty Trust ("RPS"). The Spin-Off Transaction was consummated in order to permit RPS to complete an acquisition (the "Ramco Acquisition") of assets from Ramco Gershenson, Inc. and its affiliates ("Ramco"), which permitted RPS to become an equity shopping center real estate investment trust (a "REIT"). RPS undertook the Spin-Off Transaction because Ramco was unwilling to consummate the Ramco Acquisition if the assets that were contributed by RPS to the Trust (the "Trust Assets") remained in RPS. Pursuant to the Spin-Off Transaction, the board of trustees of RPS approved a distribution of one common share of beneficial interest (the "Shares") of the Trust for every eight shares of beneficial interest of RPS (the "Distribution"). Under the provisions of its Declaration of Trust, the Trust was to continue for a period of 18 months from May 10, 1996, during which time it was to reduce to cash or cash equivalents the Trust Assets and either (i) make a liquidating distribution to its shareholders or (ii) agree to merge or combine operations with another real estate entity, in either case, as soon as practicable following the Distribution and within such 18-month period. Such 18-month period was subject to extension if (i) the Trust had not achieved its objective and the holders of at least two-thirds of the outstanding Shares approved the extension of such date or (ii) a contingent tax liability relating to RPS that has been assumed by the Trust had not been satisfactorily resolved. Because the RPS Tax Issues and the Trust Audit (each as defined below) have not yet been satisfactorily resolved, the Trust has continued its business past such 18-month period. The Trust cannot currently estimate the timing of the future satisfactory resolution of the Trust Audit. Accordingly, the Trust will continue until there is a final determination of this issue. Upon obtaining a satisfactory resolution to the Trust Audit and liquidating the Trust's remaining assets, any liquidating distribution effected by the Trust would be subject to the satisfaction of the Trust's liabilities to its creditors. In the event that at the end of this period, the Trust is unable to achieve its business objectives, the members (the "Trustees") of the Trust's board of trustees (the "Board of Trustees") will appoint an independent third party to liquidate the Trust's remaining assets. As a result of the Spin-Off Transaction, the Trust acquired the Trust Assets. The Trust Assets which have not been disposed of by the Trust are described below under "-- Description of Trust Assets." The Trust's principal investment objective is to maximize shareholder value from the reduction of the Trust Assets to cash or cash equivalents. As part of its plan to liquidate the Trust Assets to cash or cash equivalents, the Trust intends, among other things, and subject to the Internal Revenue Service's ("IRS") consideration of the appeals filed, by RPS and the Trust in connection with the examination reports issued by the IRS in connection with their audits of RPS and the Trust (as more fully described below under "-- Tax Contingency") to continue to: (i) 1 contact strategic buyers of the Trust's remaining asset (the Hylan Plaza Shopping Center, located in Staten Island, New York (the "Hylan Center")) regarding possible sales transactions and (ii) list the Hylan Center for sale with qualified real estate brokers. No assurance can be given, however, that such objective will be achieved. The Trust expects to continue to invest the net proceeds from sales of the Trust Assets in short-term or temporary investments, such as certificates of deposit, pass-through mortgage-backed certificates, mortgage participation certificates and mortgaged-backed securities (or similar investment products), all or some of which investments may be guaranteed by Ginnie Mae, Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac. Unless otherwise approved by the shareholders, the Trust does not expect that it will make new permanent investments or raise additional capital. In addition, the Trust does not expect to acquire additional mortgage loans or properties. In addition, the Trust has and may continue to explore the possibility of merging or entering into a business combination with another real estate entity. The Trust expects that it will pursue such a transaction only if it represents an attractive alternative to the distribution to shareholders of the net proceeds from the orderly liquidation of the Trust Assets, as described above. The merger candidates that may be available to the Trust may be limited as a result of the amount of cash and the nature of the assets which the Trust will hold. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the Trust will successfully merge or combine operations with another real estate entity. Because the Trust has adopted a policy not to re-invest sales proceeds in additional mortgage loans on real estate (except to the extent necessary to satisfy applicable REIT requirements), a merger or other business combination involving the Trust and another real estate entity may constitute a "roll-up transaction" under applicable securities laws. In such case, the Trust would be required to comply with the heightened disclosure rules as well as special rules relating to the proxy solicitation process and the listing of the securities of the surviving company on any exchange or the inclusion for quotation of such securities on the Nasdaq Small Cap Market. Application of the roll-up rules to a company merger or business combination could delay, defer or prevent such a transaction from occurring. See "Sale of Hylan Plaza Shopping Center" below. The Trust was organized for the purpose of qualifying as a REIT under sections 856-860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). The Trust will elect to qualify as a REIT for the year ended December 31, 2004 and intends to operate so as to continue to qualify as a REIT. As of December 31, 2004, the Trust had six employees. DESCRIPTION OF TRUST ASSETS As of December 31, 2004, the Trust owned and operated one real property, the Hylan Center and held short-term investments in the principal amount of approximately $7,300,000, consisting primarily of a certificate of deposit at a major New York bank. REAL PROPERTY INVESTMENT THE HYLAN PLAZA SHOPPING CENTER. At December 31, 2004, the Trust held an equity investment in one property, the Hylan Center. The Hylan Center is a one-story community 2 shopping center located in Staten Island, New York which was acquired by the Trust in April, 1996. The Hylan Center contains approximately 359,000 square feet of leasable space approximately 99% of which was leased and occupied as of December 31, 2004. Major tenants (i.e., tenants who accounted for 10% or more of the leasable space as of December 31, 2004) include K-Mart Corp., a department store chain ("K-Mart"), Pathmark Stores, Inc. ("Pathmark"), and the Toys "R" Us - -- NY L.L.C., a retail toy store chain ("Toys "R" Us"). These three tenants lease approximately 104,000, 60,000 and 42,000 square feet, respectively, which constitutes 29%, 17% and 12%, respectively, of the total leasable space. The K-Mart lease expires in January 2007 and provides for annual base rental payments of approximately $235,000; the Pathmark lease expires in January 2007 and provides for annual base rental payments of approximately $579,000; and the Toys "R" Us lease expires in October 2005 and provides for annual base rental payments of approximately $90,000. The K-Mart lease contains two 5-year tenant renewal options; the Pathmark lease contains six 5-year tenant renewal options; and the Toys "R" Us lease contains one 10-year tenant renewal option. Leases for approximately 55,000 square feet are due to expire on or prior to December 31, 2005. The approximate base rental revenue as of December 31, 2003 was approximately $4,422,000. The average base rental revenue per leased square foot as of December 31, 2004 was $12.78, excluding percentage rent and similar provisions. The Trust believes the property is adequately covered by insurance. As of December 31, 2004, the estimated net realizable value of the Hylan Center was approximately $81,319,000, including estimated cash flows using a disposition period of six months. Realized values may differ depending on actual disposition results and time periods. Under various federal, state, and local environmental laws, ordinances and regulations, a current or previous owner or operator of real property may be liable for the costs of removal or remediation of hazardous or toxic substances on, under or in such property. Such laws often impose liability whether or not the owner or operator knew of, or was responsible for, the presence of such hazardous or toxic substances. In connection with the ownership, operation and management of the Hylan Center, the Trust may be potentially liable for removal or remediation costs, as well as certain other related costs, including governmental fines and injuries to persons and property. Certain environmental laws and common law principles could also be used to impose liability for release of an exposure to hazardous substances, including asbestos-containing materials ("ACMs") into the air, and third parties may seek recovery from owners or operators of real properties for personal injury or property damage associated with exposure to released hazardous substances, including ACMs. As the owner of the Hylan Center, the Trust may be potentially liable for any such costs. QUALIFICATION AS A REIT The Trust intends to qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes. If the Trust so qualifies, amounts paid by the Trust as distributions to its shareholders will not be subject to corporate income taxes. For any year in which the Trust does not meet the requirements for electing to be taxed as a REIT, it will be taxed as a corporation. The requirements for qualification as a REIT are contained in Sections 856-860 of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder. The following discussion is a brief summary of some of those requirements. Such requirements include certain provisions relating to the nature of a REIT's assets, the sources of its income, the ownership of its stock, and the 3 distribution of its income. Among other things, at the end of each fiscal quarter, at least 75% of the value of the total assets of the Company must consist of real estate assets (including interests in mortgage loans secured by real property and interests in other REITs, as well as cash, cash items and government securities) (the "75% Asset Test"). There are also certain limitations on the amount of other types of securities which can be held by a REIT. Additionally, at least 75% of the gross income of the Company for the taxable year must be derived from certain sources, which include "rents from real property," and interest secured by mortgages on real property. An additional 20% of the gross income of the Company must be derived from these same sources or from dividends, interest from any source, or gains from the sale or other disposition of stock or securities or any combination of the foregoing. The Trust may invest the proceeds derived from the sale or other disposition of the Trust Assets in pass-through, mortgage-backed certificates, mortgage participation certificates and mortgage-backed securities, all or some of which instruments may be guaranteed by Ginnie Mae, Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac. Such instruments produce qualifying income for REIT qualification purposes and also satisfy the requirements of the 75% Asset Test. A REIT is also required to distribute at least 90% of its REIT Taxable Income (as defined in the Code) to its shareholders. TAX CONTINGENCY During the third quarter of 1994, RPS held more than 25% of the value of its gross assets in overnight Treasury Bill reverse repurchase transactions which the IRS may view as non-qualifying assets for the purposes of satisfying an asset qualification test applicable to REITs, based on a Revenue Ruling published in 1977 (the "Asset Issue"). RPS requested that the IRS enter into a closing agreement with RPS that the Asset Issue would not impact RPS' status as a REIT. The IRS declined such request. In February 1995, the IRS initiated an examination of the 1991-1995 income tax returns of RPS (the "RPS Audit" and, together with the Asset Issue, the "RPS Tax Issues"). Based on developments in the law which occurred since 1977, RPS' tax counsel at that time, Battle Fowler LLP, rendered an opinion that RPS' investment in Treasury Bill repurchase obligations would not adversely affect its REIT status. However, such opinion is not binding upon the IRS. In connection with the Spin-Off Transaction, the Trust assumed all tax liability arising out of the RPS Tax Issues (other than liability that relates to events occurring or actions taken by RPS following the date of the Spin-Off Transaction) pursuant to a tax agreement, dated May 10, 1996, by and between RPS and the Trust (the "Tax Agreement"). Such agreement provides that RPS (now named Ramco-Gershenson Properties Trust), under the direction of four trustees, three of whom are also trustees of the Trust (the "Continuing Trustees") and not the Trust, will control, conduct and effect the settlement of any tax claims against RPS relating to the RPS Tax Issues. Accordingly, the Trust did not have any control as to the timing of the resolution or disposition of any such claims. In December 2003, Ramco-Gershenson Properties Trust and the Internal Revenue Service entered into a Closing Agreement with respect to all of the issues raised by the Internal Revenue Service in connection with RPS Audit. As a condition of the Closing Agreement, Ramco-Gershenson Properties Trust was obligated to pay deficiency dividends (under Code Sec. 860) with respect to its 1992 and 1993 taxable year in amounts not less than $1,386,503 4 with respect to the 1992 taxable year and $809,010 with respect to the 1993 taxable year. In addition, Ramco-Gershenson Properties Trust is obligated to pay a deficiency in its income taxes with respect to the period covered by the RPS Audit equal to $770,258, plus interest calculated at the statutory rate on the amount of the deficiency and the amount of the deficiency dividends. The aggregate amount of the deficiency dividends, income tax deficiency and interest on these amounts is approximately $7,400,000, and because the Trust is required by the Tax Agreement to reimburse Ramco-Gershenson Properties Trust for these items, they are included in the estimated cost of liquidation as of December 31, 2003. Although the Closing Agreement provides that the election of Ramco-Gershenson Properties Trust to be taxed as a "real estate investment trust" was terminated with respect to its 1994 and 1995 taxable years, it also provides that Ramco-Gershenson Properties Trust will be treated as having reelected to be taxed as a "real estate investment trust" with respect to its taxable year beginning January 1, 1996 and that the termination of its election to be taxed as a "real estate investment trust" will not prohibit it or any successor entity (which includes the Trust) from electing to be taxed as a "real estate investment trust" on or after January 1, 1996. The Trust remains obligated under the Tax Agreement to assume certain liabilities relating to the RPS Tax Issues. The Trust established a special committee (the "Special Committee regarding RPS Tax Issues") comprised of the two Trustees who are not Continuing Trustees or otherwise affiliated with Ramco-Gershenson Properties Trust to act on behalf of the Trust in evaluating the position of the Trust with respect to the RPS Tax Issues and to represent the Trust with respect to any claims asserted by Ramco-Gershenson Properties Trust for contribution arising out of the Closing Agreement. On January 21, 2004, the Trust contributed $2,200,091 in respect of the deficiency dividend required to be paid pursuant to the Closing Agreement. On June 10, 2004 the Trust paid $1,803,235 in respect of the tax and interest on the tax pursuant to the Closing Agreement. The Trust will be obligated to make additional payments with respect to the RPS Tax Issues and the Closing Agreement as a result of its obligations under the Tax Agreement. In the event the Trust is presented with further requests or claims for payment or reimbursement arising in connection with the RPS Tax Issues and the Closing Agreement, the Special Committee regarding RPS Tax Issues will evaluate the Trust's further obligations at the time of its receipt of any such claim or request. The Trust does not however expect the amounts claimed or requested to exceed approximately $3,300,000. On February 21, 2003, the IRS issued an examination report to the Trust with respect to the 1996 and 1997 taxable years of the Trust. This examination report proposes to disallow all of the loss deductions claimed by the Trust upon the disposition of Trust Assets during that period. In addition, the examination report proposes to increase the REIT taxable income of the Trust during 1996 and 1997 on account of two items reported on the Trust's tax returns for which the Trust did not claim any taxable loss or deduction. Counsel to the Trust has advised that the examination report contains numerous errors of fact with respect to the operations of the Trust and that the legal conclusions in the examination report are not consistent with the applicable provisions of the Code and the income tax regulations. The Trust timely filed an administrative appeals (the "Trust Protest") challenging the adjustments proposed in the examination report. Apart from transferring the responsibility of the Trust's appeal of the examination report to the IRS appeals office having jurisdiction for this case, no action has yet been taken by the 5 IRS with respect to the Trust's Protest to the disallowances proposed in the examination report issued to the Trust. The outcome of the Trust Protest is uncertain and the impact of the resolution could be material to the financial statements; however, the Trust anticipates that the outcome will be favorable to the Trust. INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT WITH KIMCO REALTY CORPORATION On March 28, 2005, the Trust entered into an Indemnification Agreement (the "Indemnification Agreement") with Kimco Realty Corporation ("Kimco") pursuant to which the Trust has agreed to allow Kimco to conduct due diligence on the Hylan Center. The indemnification agreement is being entered into in connection with Kimco's bid to acquire the Hylan Center from the trust and further provides that commencing on March 28, 2005 and for a period of forty five (45) days thereafter, neither the Trust nor any of its representatives or agents will engage in negotiations or discussions with any party other than Kimco for the sale of the capital stock or assets of the Trust, including the sale of the Hylan Center. While the Trust and Kimco have entered into the Indemnification Agreement, the Trust has not as of the date hereof accepted Kimco's offer to purchase the Hylan Center; therefore, there is no assurance that Kimco and the Trust will enter into a definitive agreement in respect thereto. SEGMENT INFORMATION The Trust considers its business to include one industry segment, investment in real estate. ITEM 2. PROPERTIES. The Trust leases approximately 4,100 square feet of office space at 747 Third Avenue, New York, New York at an annual base rent of approximately $264,000. This lease will expire on October 31, 2005. In addition, the Trust owns and operates the Hylan Center property described under Item 1. ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS. There are no material pending legal proceedings other than ordinary routine litigation incidental to the business (including without limitation, foreclosure proceedings), against or involving the Trust or its properties. ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS. The Trust did not submit any matter to a vote of its shareholders during the fourth quarter of 2004. 6 PART II ITEM 5.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND LIQUIDATION ACTIVITIES. CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY -- ATLANTIC REALTY TRUST The Trust's primary objective has been to liquidate its assets in an eighteen-month period from the date of the Spin-Off Transaction while realizing the maximum values for such assets; however because the RPS Tax Issues had not been settled within such time and the Trust Audit has not been satisfactorily resolved, the Trust has continued its business beyond such period. Although the Trust considers its assumptions and estimates as to the values and timing of such liquidations to be reasonable, the period of time to liquidate the assets and distribute the proceeds of such assets is subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond the Trust's control. There can be no assurance that the net values ultimately realized and costs actually incurred for such assets will not materially differ from the Trust's estimate. The Trust does not intend to make new loans or actively engage in either the mortgage lending or the property acquisition business. The Trust believes that cash and cash equivalents on hand, proceeds generated by the real estate property that it owns and operates (the Hylan Center) and proceeds from the eventual sale of such property will be sufficient to support the Trust and meet its obligations. As of December 31, 2004, the Trust had approximately $7,852,000 in cash and short-term investments. The Trust expects that, unless it is sold or merges with another entity, it will liquidate upon resolution of the RPS Tax Issues, the Trust Audit and any resolution of any liabilities relating thereto under the Tax Agreement. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS 8 PERIOD FROM JANUARY 1, 2002 TO DECEMBER 31, 2002, JANUARY 1, 2003 TO DECEMBER 31, 2003 AND JANUARY 1, 2004 TO DECEMBER 31, 2004. As a result of the spin-off transaction, the Trust has adopted the liquidation basis of accounting. The liquidation basis of accounting is appropriate when liquidation appears imminent and the Trust is no longer viewed as a going concern. The Trust's income or loss is included in the adjustments to reflect liquidation basis of accounting. Net income for the years ended December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002 was approximately $1,580,000, $2,187,000 and $2,701,000 respectively. The increase in net assets in liquidation in 2004 is based on the recent re-valuation of the Hylan Center. The decrease in net assets in liquidation during 2003 is primarily due to the Trust's accrual of a liability of approximately $7,400,000 to Ramco-Gershenson Properties Trust with regard to the settlement of the RPS Tax Issues, including obligations arising from the Closing Agreement. ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK. As of December 31, 2004, the Trust has approximately $7,852,000 of cash and short term investments. The earnings from these assets are affected by changes in market interest rates over which the Trust has no control. Although changes in market interest rates may significantly affect the earnings on these assets the impact in changes in rates on the Trust's net assets in liquidation is not expected to be material. ITEM 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA. See pages F-1 through F-9, which are included herein. ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE. None. ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES As of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report on Form 10-K, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision of and with the participation of the Company's management, including the Company's President and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-14(c) and 15d-14(c) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Based upon that evaluation, the President and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures are effective (i) to ensure that material information relating to the Trust is communicated to them on a timely basis, and (ii) to accomplish the purposes for which they were designed. There were no material changes made in the Company's internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended December 31, 2003 that has materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect the Trust's internal control over financial reporting. ITEM 9B. OTHER INFORMATION 9 None. 10 PART III ITEM 10. DIRECTORS AND EXECUTIVE OFFICERS OF THE REGISTRANT. The Trust has adopted a Code of Ethics that applies to the Trust's principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller or persons performing similar functions. Any person wishing to receive a copy of The Code of Ethics may request a copy by contacting the Trust and providing a name and address where such copy may be sent.

These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Trust's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Trust is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Trust's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, 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. As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Trust was formed for the purpose of liquidating the mortgage loan portfolio and certain other assets and liabilities which were transferred to the Trust from RPS Realty Trust on May 1, 1996 and liquidating and distributing capital to the Trust's shareholders. As a result, the Trust adopted the liquidation basis of accounting, effective May 10, 1996. In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets in liquidation of Atlantic Realty Trust and subsidiary as of December 31, 2004 and 2003 and the changes in their net assets in liquidation for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2004 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America on the basis described in the preceding paragraph. As discussed in Notes 1 and 6 to the consolidated financial statements, because of the inherent uncertainty of valuation when an entity is in liquidation, the amounts ultimately realized from assets disposed and costs incurred to settle liabilities may differ materially from amounts presented in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. /s/ DELOITTE & TOUCHE LLP ------------------------ MARCH 24, 2005 ------------------------ New York, New York New York, New York F-2 ATLANTIC REALTY TRUST AND SUBSIDIARY CONSOLIDATED STATEMENTS OF NET ASSETS IN LIQUIDATION (LIQUIDATION BASIS OF ACCOUNTING) December 31, December 31, 2004 2003 ---- ---- ASSETS: Investment in real estate........ $81,319,000 $44,144,250 Cash and short-term investments.. 7,852,922 23,198,093 Other assets 102,000 265,100 ---------------- ------------- Total assets............. 89,273,922 67,607,443 ---------------- ------------- LIABILITIES: Estimated costs of liquidation... 8,600,164 12,547,752 ---------------- ------------- Net assets in liquidation........ $80,673,758 $55,059,691 ---------------- ------------- See notes to consolidated financial statements.

F-4 ATLANTIC REALTY TRUST AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (LIQUIDATION BASIS OF ACCOUNTING) 1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Atlantic Realty Trust, a Maryland real estate investment trust (the "Trust"), was formed on July 27, 1995 for the purpose of liquidating its interests in real properties, its mortgage loan portfolio and certain other assets and liabilities which were transferred to the Trust from Ramco-Gershenson Properties Trust (formerly named RPS Realty Trust) ("RPS") on May 10, 1996 (the "Spin-Off Transaction"). The Trust had no operations from the date of formation to the date of the Spin-Off Transaction. The Trust adopted the liquidation basis of accounting as of the date of the Spin-Off Transaction based on its intention to liquidate its assets or merge or combine operations with another real estate entity within eighteen months from the date of the Spin-Off Transaction. The Trust intends to conduct its operations with the intent of meeting the requirements applicable to a real estate investment trust ("REIT") under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). As a result, the Trust will have no current or deferred income tax liabilities. Liquidation Basis of Accounting -- As a result of the Spin-Off Transaction, the Trust has adopted the liquidation basis of accounting. The liquidation basis of accounting is appropriate when liquidation appears imminent and the Trust is no longer viewed as a going concern. Under this method of accounting, assets are stated at their estimated net realizable values and liabilities are stated at the anticipated settlement amounts. The valuations presented in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Net Assets in Liquidation represent the estimates at the dates shown, based on current facts and circumstances, of the estimated net realizable value of the assets and estimated costs of liquidating the Trust. In determining the net realizable values of the assets, the Trust considered each asset's ability to generate future cash flows, offers to purchase received from third parties, if any, and other general market information. Such information was considered in conjunction with operating the Trust's plan for disposition of assets. The estimated costs of liquidation represent the estimated cost of operating the Trust through its anticipated termination. These costs primarily include payroll, consulting and related costs, rent, shareholder relations, legal and auditing. Changes in these costs during the periods presented are reflected in the adjustments to reflect liquidation basis of accounting. Computations of net realizable value necessitate the use of certain assumptions and estimates. Future events, including economic conditions that relate to real estate markets in general, may differ from those assumed or estimated at the time such computations are made. Because of inherent uncertainty of valuation when an entity is in liquidation, the amounts ultimately realized from assets disposed and costs incurred to settle liabilities may materially differ from amounts presented. Pursuant to the terms of the Trust's Amended and Restated Declaration of Trust, the Trust was to continue for a period of 18 months from the date of the Spin-Off Transaction, subject to, among certain other things, satisfactory resolution of the RPS Tax Issues (as such term is defined in footnote 6). Because the RPS Tax Issues have not yet been satisfactorily resolved, the Trust has continued its business past that date. The Trust cannot currently estimate F-5 ATLANTIC REALTY TRUST AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (LIQUIDATION BASIS OF ACCOUNTING) the timing of the future satisfactory resolution of the RPS Tax Issues. Accordingly, the Trust will continue until there is a final determination of these issues. CONSOLIDATION -- The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Trust and its wholly-owned subsidiary. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. 2.

CASH AND SHORT-TERM INVESTMENTS Cash and short-term investments at December 31, 2004 and 2003, consist primarily of certificates of deposit at a major New York bank of $7,300,000 and $22,500,000, respectively, purchased with original maturities of three months or less, bearing interest at a fixed rate of 1.25% and 1.09%, respectively. F-6 ATLANTIC REALTY TRUST AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (LIQUIDATION BASIS OF ACCOUNTING) 5. OTHER ASSETS Other assets include the estimated interest income from the Trust's short-term investments. 6. INCOME TAXES During the third quarter of 1994, RPS held more than 25% of the value of its gross assets in overnight Treasury Bill reverse repurchase transactions which the IRS may view as non-qualifying assets for the purposes of satisfying an asset qualification test applicable to REITs, based on a Revenue Ruling published in 1977 (the "Asset Issue"). RPS requested that the IRS enter into a closing agreement with RPS that the Asset Issue would not impact RPS' status as a REIT. The IRS declined such request. In February 1995, the IRS initiated an examination of the 1991-1995 income tax returns of RPS (the "RPS Audit" and, together with the Asset Issue, the "RPS Tax Issues"). Based on developments in the law which occurred since 1977, RPS' tax counsel at that time, Battle Fowler LLP, rendered an opinion that RPS' investment in Treasury Bill repurchase obligations would not adversely affect its REIT status. However, such opinion is not binding upon the IRS. In connection with the Spin-Off Transaction, the Trust assumed all tax liability arising out of the RPS Tax Issues (other than liability that relates to events occurring or actions taken by RPS following the date of the Spin-Off Transaction) pursuant to a tax agreement, dated May 10, 1996, by and between RPS and the Trust (the "Tax Agreement"). Such agreement provides that RPS (now named Ramco-Gershenson Properties Trust), under the direction of four trustees, three of whom are also trustees of the Trust (the "Continuing Trustees") and not the Trust, will control, conduct and effect the settlement of any tax claims against RPS relating to the RPS Tax Issues. Accordingly, the Trust did not have any control as to the timing of the resolution or disposition of any such claims. In December 2003, Ramco-Gershenson Properties Trust and the Internal Revenue Service entered into a Closing Agreement with respect to all of the issues raised by the Internal Revenue Service in connection with RPS Audit. As a condition of the Closing Agreement, Ramco-Gershenson Properties Trust was obligated to pay deficiency dividends (under Code Sec. 860) with respect to its 1992 and 1993 taxable year in amounts not less than $1,386,503 with respect to the 1992 taxable year and $809,010 with respect to the 1993 taxable year. In addition, Ramco-Gershenson Properties Trust is obligated to pay a deficiency in its income taxes with respect to the period covered by the RPS Audit equal to $770,258, plus interest calculated at the statutory rate on the amount of the deficiency and the amount of the deficiency dividends. The aggregate amount of the deficiency dividends, income tax deficiency and interest on these amounts is approximately $7,400,000, and because the Trust is required by the Tax Agreement to reimburse Ramco-Gershenson Properties Trust for these items, they are included in the estimated cost of liquidation as of December 31, 2003. Although the Closing Agreement provides that the election of Ramco-Gershenson Properties Trust to be taxed as a "real estate investment trust" was terminated with respect to its 1994 and 1995 taxable years, it also provides F-7 ATLANTIC REALTY TRUST AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (LIQUIDATION BASIS OF ACCOUNTING) that Ramco-Gershenson Properties Trust will be treated as having reelected to be taxed as a "real estate investment trust" with respect to its taxable year beginning January 1, 1996 and that the termination of its election to be taxed as a "real estate investment trust" will not prohibit it or any successor entity (which includes the Trust) from electing to be taxed as a "real estate investment trust" on or after January 1, 1996. The Trust remains obligated under the Tax Agreement to assume certain liabilities relating to the RPS Tax Issues. The Trust established a special committee (the "Special Committee regarding RPS Tax Issues") comprised of the two Trustees who are not Continuing Trustees or otherwise affiliated with Ramco-Gershenson Properties Trust to act on behalf of the Trust in evaluating the position of the Trust with respect to the RPS Tax Issues and to represent the Trust with respect to any claims asserted by Ramco-Gershenson Properties Trust for contribution arising out of the Closing Agreement. On January 21, 2004, the Trust contributed $2,200,091 in respect of the deficiency dividend required to be paid pursuant to the Closing Agreement. On June 10, 2004 the Trust paid $1,803,235 in respect of the tax and interest on the tax pursuant to the Closing Agreement. The Trust will be obligated to make additional payments with respect to the RPS Tax Issues and the Closing Agreement as a result of its obligations under the Tax Agreement. In the event the Trust is presented with further requests or claims for payment or reimbursement arising in connection with the RPS Tax Issues and the Closing Agreement, the Special Committee regarding RPS Tax Issues will evaluate the Trust's further obligations at the time of its receipt of any such claim or request. The Trust does not however expect the amounts claimed or requested to exceed approximately $3,300,000. On February 21, 2003, the IRS issued an examination report to the Trust with respect to the 1996 and 1997 taxable years of the Trust. This examination report proposes to disallow all of the loss deductions claimed by the Trust upon the disposition of Trust Assets during that period. In addition, the examination report proposes to increase the REIT taxable income of the Trust during 1996 and 1997 on account of two items reported on the Trust's tax returns for which the Trust did not claim any taxable loss or deduction. Counsel to the Trust has advised that the examination report contains numerous errors of fact with respect to the operations of the Trust and that the legal conclusions in the examination report are not consistent with the applicable provisions of the Code and the income tax regulations. The Trust timely filed an administrative appeals (the "Trust Protest") challenging the adjustments proposed in the examination report. Apart from transferring the responsibility of the Trust's appeal of the examination report to the IRS appeals office having jurisdiction for this case, no action has yet been taken by the IRS with respect to the Trust's Protest to the disallowances proposed in the examination report issued to the Trust. The outcome of the Trust Protest is uncertain and the impact of the resolution could be material to the financial statements; however, the Trust anticipates that the outcome will be favorable to the Trust.

DIVIDENDS/DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS Under the Internal Revenue Code, a REIT must meet certain qualifications, including a requirement that it distribute annually to its shareholders at least 90 percent of its REIT taxable income. The Trust's policy is to distribute to shareholders all taxable income. Dividend distributions for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2002 and 2001 are summarized as follows: Record Date Distribution Payment ----------- ------------ ------- December 20, 2004 $.41 per share December 29, 2004 May 10, 2004 $3.25 per share May 20, 2004 December 18, 2003 $.46 per share December 29, 2003 December 15, 2002 $.62 per share December 27, 2002 The distributions listed in the table above represent ordinary income for income tax purposes, except for the $3.25 per share distribution which was a return of capital. 8. COMMITMENTS The Trust leases approximately 4,100 square feet of office space at 747 Third Avenue, New York, New York at an annual base rent of approximately $264,000. This lease will expire on October 31, 2005. 9. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS On March 28, 2005, the Trust entered into an Indemnification Agreement (the "Indemnification Agreement") with Kimco Realty Corporation ("Kimco") pursuant to which the Trust has agreed to allow Kimco to conduct due diligence on the Hylan Center. The indemnification agreement is being entered into in connection with Kimco's bid to acquire the Hylan Center from the trust and further provides that commencing on March 28, 2005 and for a period of forty five (45) days thereafter, neither the Trust nor any of its representatives or agents will engage in negotiations or discussions with any party other than Kimco for the sale of the capital stock or assets of the Trust, including the sale of the Hylan Center. While the Trust and Kimco have entered into the Indemnification Agreement, the Trust has not as of the date hereof accepted Kimco's offer to purchase the Hylan Center; therefore, there is no assurance that Kimco and the Trust will enter into a definitive agreement in respect thereto.
