(1)  The Company calculates funds from operations (FFO) in accordance with the
       white paper published by the National Association of Real Estate 
       Investment Trusts, Inc. FFO means net income (loss), (computed in 
       accordance with generally accepted accounting principles), excluding 
       gains (or losses) from debt restructuring, divestiture or property and 
       significant non-recurring items that materially distort the comparative 
       measurement of the Company over time, plus depreciation and 
       amortization of real property, and after adjustments for unconsolidated 
       subsidiaries, partnerships and joint ventures. Meridian believes that 
       funds from operations is helpful to a reader as a measure of the 
       performance of an equity real estate investment trust because, along 
       with cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities, it 
       provides a reader with an indication of the ability of Meridian to 
       incur and service debt, to make capital expenditures and to fund other 
       cash needs. The funds from operations measure presented will not be 
       comparable to similarly titled measures of other real estate investment 
       trusts which do not compute funds from operations in a manner 
       consistent with Meridian. Funds from operations is not intended to 
       represent cash made available to shareholders. Funds from operations 
       should not be considered as an alternative to net earnings or any other 
       generally accepted accounting principles measurement of performance as 
       an indicator of Meridian's operating performance, or as an alternative 
       to cash flows from operating, investing or financing activities as a 
       measure of liquidity.

(2)  Includes quarterly dividends paid to Series B Preferred Stockholders of
       $0.33 per share and $0.31 per share in 1998 and 1997, respectively. Also,
       reflects cash refunded in connection with three property for stock
       transactions completed in 1997 representing dividends for the period 
       prior to closing, which were accounted for as a purchase price 
       adjustment.

(3)  The diluted weighted average common shares outstanding was calculated as if
       the outstanding shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, stock
       options, warrants and limited partnership units had been converted into
       shares of Common Stock. The number of weighted average options, warrants
       and limited partnership units outstanding were 2,537,195 and 2,799,902 
       for the three months ended December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively, and
       2,754,307 and 2,745,881 for the twelve months ended December 31, 1998
       respectively.
