     We refer to (1) Highwoods Properties, Inc. as the "Company," (2) Highwoods
Realty Limited Partnership as the "Operating Partnership," (3) the Company's
common stock as "Common Stock" and (4) the Operating Partnership's common
partnership interests as "Common Units."

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

General

     The Company is a self-administered and self-managed equity REIT that began
operations through a predecessor in 1978. Since the Company's initial public
offering in 1994, we have evolved into one of the largest owners and operators
of suburban office, industrial and retail properties in the southeastern and
midwestern United States. At December 31, 2000, we:

   o owned 493 in-service office, industrial and retail properties, encompassing
     approximately 36.2 million rentable square feet and 1,885 apartment units;

   o owned an interest (50% or less) in 65 in-service office and industrial
     properties, encompassing approximately 6.2 million rentable square feet and
     418 apartment units;

   o owned 1,317 acres (and have agreed to purchase an additional 97 acres over
     the next two years) of undeveloped land suitable for future development;
     and

   o were developing an additional 33 properties, which will encompass
     approximately 3.9 million rentable square feet (including seven properties
     encompassing 1.1 million rentable square feet that we are developing with
     our joint venture partners).

     The Company conducts substantially all of its activities through, and
substantially all of its interests in the properties are held directly or
indirectly by the Operating Partnership. The Company is the sole general partner
of the Operating Partnership. At December 31, 2000, the Company owned 88.0% of
the Common Units in the Operating Partnership. Limited partners (including
certain officers and directors of the Company) own the remaining Common Units.
Holders of Common Units may redeem them for the cash value of one share of the
Company's Common Stock or, at the Company's option, one share (subject to
certain adjustments) of Common Stock.

     The Company was incorporated in Maryland in 1994. The Operating Partnership
was formed in North Carolina in 1994. Our executive offices are located at 3100
Smoketree Court, Suite 600, Raleigh, North Carolina 27604, and our telephone
number is (919) 872-4924. We maintain offices in each of our primary markets.


Operating Strategy

     Diversification. Since the Company's initial public offering in 1994, we
have significantly reduced our dependence on any particular market, property
type or tenant. We initially owned only a limited number of office properties in
North Carolina, most of which were in the Research Triangle. Today, with our
various joint venture partners, our portfolio includes office, industrial,
retail and multi-family properties, development projects and development land
throughout the Southeast and Midwest.

     Development and Acquisition Opportunities. We generally seek to engage in
the development of office and industrial projects in our existing geographic
markets, primarily in suburban business parks. We intend to focus our
development efforts on build-to-suit projects and projects where we have
identified sufficient demand. In build-to-suit development, the building is
significantly pre-leased to one or more tenants prior to construction.
Build-to-suit projects often foster strong long-term relationships with tenants,
creating future development opportunities as the facility needs of tenants
increase. We believe our commercially zoned and unencumbered development land in
existing business parks is an advantage we have over many of our competitors in
pursuing development opportunities.

                                       3
<PAGE>

     We also seek to acquire selective suburban office and industrial properties
in our existing geographic markets at prices below replacement cost that offer
attractive returns. These would include acquisitions of underperforming,
high-quality properties in our existing markets that offer us opportunities to
improve such properties' operating performance.

     Managed Growth Strategy. Our strategy has been to focus our real estate
activities in markets where we believe our extensive local knowledge gives us a
competitive advantage over other real estate developers and operators. As we
expanded into new markets, we have continued to maintain this localized approach
by combining with local real estate operators with many years of development and
management experience in their respective markets. Our development and
acquisition activities also benefit from our local market presence and
knowledge. Our property-level officers have significant real estate experience
in their respective markets. Because of this experience, we are in a better
position to evaluate acquisition and development opportunities. In addition, our
relationships with our tenants and those tenants at properties for which we
conduct third-party fee-based services may lead to development projects when
these tenants seek new space.

     Efficient, Customer Service-Oriented Organization. We provide a complete
line of real estate services to our tenants and third parties. We believe that
our in-house development, acquisition, construction management, leasing and
management services allow us to respond to the many demands of our existing and
potential tenant base. We provide our tenants cost-effective services such as
build-to-suit construction and space modification, including tenant improvements
and expansions. In addition, the breadth of our capabilities and resources
provides us with market information not generally available. We believe that the
operating efficiencies achieved through our fully integrated organization also
provide a competitive advantage in setting our lease rates and pricing other
services.

     Flexible and Conservative Capital Structure. We are committed to
maintaining a flexible and conservative capital structure that: (1) allows
growth through development and acquisition opportunities; (2) promotes future
earnings growth; and (3) provides access to the private and public equity and
debt markets on favorable terms. Accordingly, we expect to meet our long-term
liquidity requirements, including funding our existing and future development
activity, through a combination of:

     o borrowings under our unsecured revolving credit facility;

     o the issuance of unsecured debt securities;

     o borrowings of secured debt;

     o the issuance of equity securities by both the Company and the Operating
       Partnership;

     o the selective disposition of non-core assets; and

     o the sale or contribution of certain of our wholly owned properties,
       development projects and development land to strategic joint ventures
       formed with selected partners.

Development Land

     We estimate that we can develop approximately 13.5 million square feet of
office, industrial and retail space on our wholly owned development land. All of
this development land is zoned and available for office, industrial or retail
development, substantially all of which has utility infrastructure already in
place. We believe in our future development activities that our commercially
zoned and unencumbered land in existing business parks gives us an advantage
over other commercial real estate development companies in many of our markets.
Any future development, however, is dependent on the demand for industrial or
office space in the area, the availability of favorable financing and other
factors, and no assurance can be given that any construction will take place on
the development land. In addition, if construction is undertaken on the
development land, we will be subject to the risks associated with construction
activities, including the risk that occupancy rates and rents at a newly
completed property may not be sufficient to make the property profitable,
construction costs may exceed original estimates and construction and lease-up
may not be completed on schedule, resulting in increased debt service expense
and construction expense.


ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

     On October 2, 1998, John Flake, a former stockholder of J.C. Nichols
Company, filed a putative class action lawsuit on behalf of himself and the
other former stockholders of J.C. Nichols in the United States District Court
for the District of Kansas against J.C. Nichols, certain of its former officers
and directors and the Company. The complaint asserts claims against J.C. Nichols
and certain named directors and officers of J.C. Nichols for breach of fiduciary
duty to J.C. Nichols' stockholders and to members of the J.C. Nichols Company
Employee Stock Ownership Trust, as well as claims under Section 14(a) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Sections 11 and 12(2) of the Securities Act
of 1933 variously against J.C. Nichols, the named directors and officers of J.C.
Nichols and the Company. By order dated June 18, 1999, the court granted in part
and denied in part our motion to dismiss, and the court thereafter certified the
proposed class of plaintiffs with respect to the remaining claims. By order
dated August 28, 2000, the court granted in part and denied in part defendants'
summary judgment motion. Defendants sought reconsideration of the court's ruling
with respect to certain of the securities claims as to which the court denied
their summary judgment motion, and by order dated January 11, 2001, the court
granted in part that reconsideration motion. On the eve of the trial of this
matter, the parties settled all their remaining claims. The terms of that
settlement are now being documented. We do not believe the settlement will have
a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of
operations.

- ----------
     On February 23, 2001, the last reported stock price of the Common Stock on
the NYSE was $24.03 per share and the Company had 1,381 stockholders of record.


     The Company intends to continue to pay regular quarterly distributions to
holders of shares of Common Stock and holders of Common Units. Although the
Company intends to maintain its current distribution rate, future distributions
by the Company will be at the discretion of the Board of Directors and will
depend on the actual funds from operations of the Company, its financial
condition, capital requirements, the annual distribution requirements under the
REIT provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 and such other factors as
the Board of Directors deems relevant.

     During 2000, the Company's distributions totaled $133,446,000, none of
which represented return of capital for financial statement purposes. The
minimum distribution per share of Common Stock required to maintain REIT status
was approximately $2.20 per share in 2000 and $1.92 per share in 1999.

     The Company has instituted a Dividend Reinvestment and Stock Purchase Plan
under which holders of Common Stock may elect to automatically reinvest their
distributions in additional shares of Common Stock and may make optional cash
payments for additional shares of Common Stock. The Company may issue additional
shares of Common Stock or repurchase Common Stock in the open market for
purposes of financing its obligations under the Dividend Reinvestment and Stock
Purchase Plan.

     In August 1997, the Company instituted an Employee Stock Purchase Plan for
all active employees. At the end of each three-month offering period, each
participant's account balance is applied to acquire shares of Common Stock at
85% of the market value of the Common Stock, calculated as the lower of the
average closing price on the NYSE on the five consecutive days preceding the
first day of the quarter or the five days preceding the last day of the quarter.
A participant may not invest more than $7,500 per quarter. During 2000,
employees purchased 55,593 shares of Common Stock under the Employee Stock
Purchase Plan.


Sales of Unregistered Securities

     During 2000, the Company issued an aggregate of 9,911 shares of Common
Stock in connection with the merger of Eakin & Smith, Inc. into the Company on
April 1, 1996. The shares were issued to principals of Eakin & Smith, pursuant
to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of
1933. Each of the principals is an accredited investor. We exercised reasonable
care to assure that the principals were not purchasing the shares with a view to
their distribution.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
       OF OPERATIONS

     This Annual Report on Form 10-K contains certain forward-looking statements
with respect to our operations, industry, financial condition and liquidity.
These statements reflect our assessment of a number of risks and uncertainties.
Our actual results could differ materially from the results anticipated in these
forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors set forth in this
Annual Report. An additional statement made pursuant to the Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and summarizing certain of the principal risks and
uncertainties inherent in our business is included under the caption " --
Disclosure Regarding Forward-Looking Statements." You are encouraged to read
this section carefully.

     You should read the following discussion and analysis in conjunction with
the accompanying consolidated financial statements and related notes contained
elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.


Overview

     We are a self-administered and self-managed equity REIT that began
operations through a predecessor in 1978. Since the Company's initial public
offering in 1994, we have evolved into one of the largest owners and operators
of suburban office, industrial and retail properties in the southeastern and
midwestern United States. The Company conducts substantially all of its
activities through, and substantially all of its interests in the properties are
held directly or indirectly by, the Operating Partnership. The Company is the
sole general partner of the Operating Partnership.


Results of Operations

     Comparison of 2000 to 1999. Revenues from rental operations decreased $23.4
million, or 4.1%, from $566.8 million for the year ended December 31, 1999 to
$543.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2000. The decrease was primarily
a result of the disposition and contribution of 6.9 million square feet of
wholly owned office, industrial and retail properties offset in part by the
acquisition of 669,000 square feet of additional wholly owned office space and
the completion of 3.5 million square feet of wholly-owned development activity
in 2000. Our in-service wholly owned portfolio decreased from 39.0 million
square feet at December 31, 1999 to 36.2 million square feet at December 31,
2000. Same property revenues, which are the revenues of the 443 in-service
properties and 1,885 apartment units wholly owned on January 1, 1999, increased
2.7% for the year ended December 31, 2000, compared to the year ended December
31, 1999.

     During the year ended December 31, 2000, 1,046 leases representing 6.3
million square feet of office, industrial and retail space were executed at an
average rate per square foot which was 5.9% higher than the average rate per
square foot on the expired leases.

     Interest and other income increased $2.3 million, or 13.6%, from $16.9
million for the year ended December 31, 1999 to $19.2 million for the year ended
December 31, 2000. The increase was a result of an increase in interest income
related to a $30.0 million note receivable that was recorded as a result of
certain property dispositions in June 1999 and an increase in development fee
income in 2000 related to the DLF II Joint Venture.

     Rental operating expenses decreased $14.3 million, or 8.2%, from $174.1
million for the year ended December 31, 1999 to $159.8 million for the year
ended December 31, 2000. The decrease was primarily a result of the disposition
and contribution of 6.9 million square feet of wholly owned office, industrial
and retail properties offset in part by the acquisition of 669,000 square feet
of additional wholly owned office space and the completion of 3.5 million square
feet of wholly owned development activity in 2000. Rental operating expenses as
a percentage of related revenues decreased from 30.7% for the year ended
December 31, 1999 to 29.4% for the year ended December 31, 2000.

     Depreciation and amortization for the years ended December 31, 2000 and
1999 totaled $119.4 million and $112.3 million, respectively. The increase of
$7.1 million, or 6.3%, was due to an increase

                                       19
<PAGE>

in depreciation of leasing commissions and tenant improvements, partly offset by
a decrease in depreciation on buildings that resulted from the disposition
activity during 1999 and 2000. Interest expense decreased $4.3 million, or 3.7%,
from $117.1 million for the year ended December 31, 1999 to $112.8 million for
the year ended December 31, 2000. The decrease was primarily attributable to the
decrease in the outstanding debt for the entire year of 2000. Interest expense
for the years ended December 31, 2000 and 1999 included $2.5 million and $2.8
million, respectively, of amortization of deferred financing costs and the costs
related to our interest rate hedge contracts. General and administrative
expenses as a percentage of total revenues was 3.8% in 1999 and 3.9% in 2000.

     Income before minority interest and extraordinary item equaled $157.2
million and $166.2 million for the years ended December 31, 2000 and 1999,
respectively. The Company's net income allocated to minority interest totaled
$19.0 million and $20.8 million for the years ended December 31, 2000 and 1999,
respectively. The Company recorded $32.6 million in preferred stock dividends
for each of the years ended December 31, 2000 and 1999.

     Comparison of 1999 to 1998. Revenues from rental operations increased $66.6
million, or 13.3%, from $500.2 million for the year ended December 31, 1998 to
$566.8 million for the year ended December 31, 1999. The increase was primarily
a result of our acquisition and development activity in 1998 and 1999. In total,
we acquired or completed the development of 3.1 million rentable square feet of
wholly owned office, industrial and retail properties during 1999. These
additions to our portfolio were offset by the disposition of 8.8 million
rentable square feet of majority-owned office, industrial and retail properties
and 418 apartment units in 1999 (including the removal of certain properties
from our consolidated financial statements as a result of the reorganization of
the Des Moines partnerships). Same property revenues, which are the revenues of
the 403 in-service properties wholly owned on January 1, 1998, increased 3.0%
for the year ended December 31, 1999 compared to the year ended December 31,
1998.

     During the year ended December 31, 1999, 1,401 leases representing 8.3
million square feet of office, industrial and retail space were executed at an
average rate per square foot which was 4.9% higher than the average rate per
square foot on the expired leases.

     Interest and other income increased $5.1 million, or 43.2%, from $11.8
million for the year ended December 31, 1998 to $16.9 million for the year ended
December 31, 1999. The increase was a result of higher cash balances during the
year ended December 31, 1999 and additional income generated from management
fees and development fees.

     Rental operating expenses increased $19.8 million, or 12.8%, from $154.3
million for the year ended December 31, 1998 to $174.1 million for the year
ended December 31, 1999. The increase was primarily a result of our acquisition
and development activity in 1998 and 1999. In total, we acquired or completed
the development of 3.1 million rentable square feet of wholly owned office,
industrial and retail properties during 1999. These additions to our portfolio
were offset by the disposition of 8.8 million rentable square feet of
majority-owned office, industrial and retail properties and 418 apartment units
in 1999 (including the removal of certain properties from our consolidated
financial statements as a result of the reorganization of the Des Moines
partnerships). Rental operating expenses as a percentage of related revenues
remained consistent at 31.0% in 1998 and 1999.

     Depreciation and amortization for the years ended December 31, 1999 and
1998 totaled $112.3 million and $91.7 million, respectively. The increase of
$20.6 million, or 22.5%, was due to an average increase in depreciable assets
and deferred leasing costs. Interest expense increased $20.1 million, or 20.7%,
from $97.0 million in 1998 to $117.1 million in 1999. The increase was
attributable to an average increase in outstanding debt related to our
acquisition and development activities. The weighted average interest rates on
outstanding debt remained consistent in 1998 and 1999. Interest expense for the
years ended December 31, 1999 and 1998 included $2.8 million and $2.6 million,
respectively, of amortization of deferred financing costs and of the costs
related to our interest rate hedge contracts. General and administrative
expenses decreased from 4.1% of total revenue in 1998 to 3.8% in 1999.


                                       20
<PAGE>

     Income before minority interest and extraordinary item equaled $166.2
million and $150.4 million for the years ended December 31, 1999 and 1998,
respectively. The Company's net income allocated to minority interest totaled
$20.8 million and $24.3 million for 1999 and 1998, respectively. The Company
incurred extraordinary losses in 1999 and 1998 of $7.3 million and $387,000,
respectively, related to the early extinguishment of debt. The Company recorded
$32.6 million and $30.1 million in preferred stock dividends for the years ended
December 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively.


Liquidity and Capital Resources

     Statement of Cash Flows. For the year ended December 31, 2000, the Company
generated $256.4 million in cash flows from operating activities and $286.2
million from investing activities (primarily as a result of the dispositions of
assets, offset in part by additions to assets). These combined cash flows of
$542.6 million were used in 2000 to fund financing activities of $472.3 million,
primarily consisting of repayments of unsecured debt, the repurchase of Common
Stock and Common Units and the payment of distributions.

     Capitalization. The Company's total indebtedness at December 31, 2000 was
$1.6 billion and was comprised of $635.7 million of secured indebtedness with a
weighted average interest rate of 7.9% and $951.3 million of unsecured
indebtedness with a weighted average interest rate of 7.3%. Except as stated
below, all of the mortgage and notes payable outstanding at December 31, 2000
were either fixed rate obligations or variable rate obligations covered by
interest rate hedge contracts. Approximately $37.0 million of floating rate
notes were not covered by interest rate hedge contracts on December 31, 2000.

     Based on the Company's total market capitalization of $3.6 billion at
December 31, 2000 (at the December 31, 2000 stock price of $24.875 and assuming
the redemption for shares of Common Stock of the 7.8 million Common Units of
minority interest in the Operating Partnership), the Company's debt represented
approximately 43.8% of its total market capitalization.

     On December 14, 2000, the Company obtained a new $300.0 million revolving
loan (the "Revolving Loan") from a group of ten lender banks. The Revolving Loan
matures in December 2003 and replaces our previous $450.0 million revolving
credit facility. The Revolving Loan carries an interest rate based upon our
senior unsecured credit ratings. As a result, interest would currently accrue on
borrowings under the Revolving Loan at an average rate of LIBOR plus 85 basis
points. The Revolving Loan also includes a $150.0 million competitive bid
sub-facility. At December 31, 2000, the Company had not borrowed any funds under
the new Revolving Loan. The terms of the Revolving Loan require the Company to
pay an annual facility fee equal to .20% of the aggregate amount of the
Revolving Loan and require compliance with certain financial covenants. At
December 31, 2000, the Company was in compliance with these covenants.

     To meet in part our long-term liquidity requirements, we borrow funds at a
combination of fixed and variable rates. Borrowings under the Revolving Loan
bear interest at variable rates. Our long-term debt, which consists of long-term
financings and the issuance of debt securities, typically bears interest at
fixed rates. In addition, we have assumed fixed rate and variable rate debt in
connection with acquiring properties. Our interest rate risk management
objective is to limit the impact of interest rate changes on earnings and cash
flows and to lower our overall borrowing costs. To achieve these objectives,
from time to time we enter into interest rate hedge contracts such as collars,
swaps, caps and treasury lock agreements in order to mitigate our interest rate
risk with respect to various debt instruments. We do not hold or issue these
derivative contracts for trading or speculative purposes.


                                       21

     The following table sets forth information regarding our interest rate
hedge contracts as of December 31, 2000 ($ in thousands):

 Collar             $ 80,000    10/01/01     1-Month LIBOR                5.60-6.25%    $  (2)

</TABLE>

     We enter into swaps, collars and caps to limit our exposure to an increase
in variable interest rates, particularly with respect to amounts outstanding
under our Revolving Loan. The interest rate on all of our variable rate debt is
adjusted at one- and three-month intervals, subject to settlements under these
contracts. We also enter into treasury lock agreements from time to time in
order to limit our exposure to an increase in interest rates with respect to
future debt offerings. Net receipts from counterparties under interest rate
hedge contracts were $206,894 during 2000 and were recorded as decreases to
interest expense.

     In addition, we are exposed to certain losses in the event of
nonperformance by the counterparties under the interest rate hedge contracts. We
expect the counterparties, which are major financial institutions, to perform
fully under these contracts. However, if the counterparties were to default on
their obligations under the interest rate hedge contracts, we could be required
to pay the full rates on our debt, even if such rates were in excess of the
rates in the contracts.

     Current and Future Cash Needs. Historically, rental revenue has been the
principal source of funds to pay operating expenses, debt service, stockholder
distributions and capital expenditures, excluding nonrecurring capital
expenditures. In addition, construction management, maintenance, leasing and
management fees have provided sources of cash flow. We presently have no plans
for major capital improvements to the existing properties, other than normal
recurring building improvements, tenant improvements and lease commissions. We
expect to meet our short-term liquidity requirements generally through working
capital and net cash provided by operating activities along with our revolving
loan.

     Our short-term (within the next 12 months) liquidity needs also include,
among other things, the funding of approximately $161.7 million of our existing
development activity. See "Business -- Development Activity." We expect to fund
our short-term liquidity needs through a combination of:

     o borrowings under our Revolving Loan;

     o the issuance of secured debt;

     o the selective disposition of non-core assets; and

     o the sale or contribution of some of our wholly owned properties,
       development projects and development land to strategic joint ventures to
       be formed with selected partners interested in investing with us, which
       will have the net effect of generating additional capital through such
       sale or contributions.

     Our long-term liquidity needs generally include the funding of existing and
future development activity, selective asset acquisitions and the retirement of
mortgage debt, amounts outstanding under the Revolving Loan and long-term
unsecured debt. We remain committed to maintaining a flexible and conservative
capital structure. Accordingly, we expect to meet our long-term liquidity needs
through a combination of (1) the issuance by the Operating Partnership of
additional unsecured debt securities, (2) the issuance of additional equity
securities by the Company and the Operating Partnership as well as (3) the
sources described above with respect to our short-term liquidity. We expect to
use such sources to meet our long-term liquidity requirements either through
direct payments or repayment of borrowings under the Revolving Loan. We do not
intend to reserve funds to retire existing secured or

                                       22
<PAGE>

unsecured indebtedness upon maturity. Instead, we will seek to refinance such
debt at maturity or retire such debt through the issuance of equity or debt
securities.

     We anticipate that our available cash and cash equivalents and cash flows
from operating activities, together with cash available from borrowings and
other sources, will be adequate to meet our capital and liquidity needs in both
the short and long term. However, if these sources of funds are insufficient or
unavailable, the Company's ability to make the expected distributions to
stockholders discussed below and satisfy other cash requirements may be
adversely affected.

     Distributions to Stockholders. As of December 31, 2000, to maintain
qualification as a REIT, the Company must distribute to stockholders at least
95% of REIT taxable income. Effective January 1, 2001, the Company must
distribute to stockholders at least 90% of REIT taxable income to maintain
qualification as a REIT. The Company expects to use its cash flow from operating
activities for distributions to stockholders and for payment of recurring,
non-incremental revenue-generating expenditures. The following factors will
affect cash flows from operating activities and, accordingly, influence the
decisions of the Board of Directors regarding distributions: (1) debt service
requirements after taking into account the repayment and restructuring of
certain indebtedness; (2) scheduled increases in base rents of existing leases;
(3) changes in rents attributable to the renewal of existing leases or
replacement leases; (4) changes in occupancy rates at existing properties and
procurement of leases for newly acquired or developed properties; and (5)
operating expenses and capital replacement needs.


Recent Developments

     Stock Repurchase. Since we commenced our share repurchase program in
December 1999, the Company has repurchased 8.0 million shares of Common Stock
and Common Units at a weighted average price of $23.95 per share/unit for an
aggregate purchase price of approximately $190.8 million.

     Disposition Activity. Since December 31, 2000, we have sold 76,000 square
feet of office properties and 277 apartment units for gross proceeds of $46.8
million. In addition, we currently have 182,000 rentable square feet of wholly
owned properties and 1,395 apartment units under contract for sale in various
transactions totaling $114.5 million. These transactions are subject to
customary closing conditions, including due diligence and documentation, and are
expected to close during the first and second quarters of 2001. However, we can
provide no assurance that all or parts of these transactions will be
consummated.

     We expect to use a portion of the net proceeds from our recent and pending
disposition activity to reinvest in tax-deferred exchange transactions under
Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code. We expect to reinvest up to $12.8
million of the remaining net proceeds from disposition activity as of December
31, 2000 and up to $152.4 million of the net proceeds from pending disposition
activity to acquire, in tax-deferred exchange transactions, in-service
properties, development land and development projects located in core markets
and in sub-markets where we have a strong presence. For an exchange to qualify
for tax-deferred treatment under Section 1031, the net proceeds from the sale of
a property must be held by an escrow agent until applied toward the purchase of
real estate qualifying for gain deferral. Given the competition for properties
meeting our investment criteria, there may be some delay in reinvesting such
proceeds. Delays in reinvesting such proceeds will reduce our income from
operations. In addition, the use of net proceeds from dispositions to fund
development activity, either through direct payments or repayment of borrowings
under our Revolving Loan, will reduce our income from operations until such
development projects are placed in service.


Possible Environmental Liabilities

     In connection with owning or operating our properties, we may be liable for
certain costs due to possible environmental liabilities. Under various laws,
ordinances and regulations, such as the Comprehensive Environmental Response
Compensation and Liability Act, and common law, an owner or operator of real
estate is liable for the costs to remove or remediate certain hazardous or toxic
chemicals or substances on or in the property. Owners or operators are also
liable for certain other costs, including governmental fines and injuries to
persons and property. Such laws often impose liability without regard


                                       23

to whether the owner or operator knew of, or was responsible for, the presence
of the hazardous or toxic chemicals or substances. The presence of such
substances, or the failure to remediate such substances properly, may adversely
affect the owner's or operator's ability to sell or rent such property or to
borrow using such property as collateral. Persons who arrange for the disposal,
treatment or transportation of hazardous or toxic chemicals or substances may
also be liable for the same types of costs at a disposal, treatment or storage
facility, whether or not that person owns or operates that facility.

     Certain environmental laws also impose liability for releasing
asbestos-containing materials. Third parties may seek recovery from owners or
operators of real property for personal injuries associated with
asbestos-containing materials. A number of our properties have
asbestos-containing materials or material that we presume to be
asbestos-containing materials. In connection with owning and operating our
properties, we may be liable for such costs.

     In addition, it is not unusual for property owners to encounter on-site
contamination caused by off-site sources. The presence of hazardous or toxic
chemicals or substances at a site close to a property could require the property
owner to participate in remediation activities or could adversely affect the
value of the property. Contamination from adjacent properties has migrated onto
at least three of our properties; however, based on current information, we do
not believe that any significant remedial action is necessary at these affected
sites.

     As of the date hereof, we have obtained Phase I environmental assessments
(and, in certain instances, Phase II environmental assessments) on substantially
all of our in-service properties. These assessments have not revealed, nor are
we aware of, any environmental liability at our properties that we believe would
materially adversely affect our financial position, operations or liquidity
taken as a whole. This projection, however, could be incorrect depending on
certain factors. For example, material environmental liabilities may have arisen
after the assessments were performed or our assessments may not have revealed
all environmental liabilities or may have underestimated the scope and severity
of environmental conditions observed. There may also be unknown environmental
liabilities at properties for which we have not obtained a Phase I environmental
assessment or have not yet obtained a Phase II environmental assessment. In
addition, we base our assumptions regarding environmental conditions, including
groundwater flow and the existence and source of contamination, on readily
available sampling data. We cannot guarantee that such data is reliable in all
cases. Moreover, we cannot provide any assurances (1) that future laws,
ordinances or regulations will not impose a material environmental liability or
(2) that tenants, the condition of land or operations in the vicinity of our
properties or unrelated third parties will not affect the current environmental
condition of our properties.

     Some tenants use or generate hazardous substances in the ordinary course of
their respective businesses. In their leases, we require these tenants to comply
with all applicable laws and to be responsible to us for any damages resulting
from their use of the property. We are not aware of any material environmental
problems resulting from tenants' use or generation of hazardous or toxic
chemicals or substances. We cannot provide any assurances, however, that all
tenants will comply with the terms of their leases or remain solvent. If tenants
do not comply or do not remain solvent, we may at some point be responsible for
contamination caused by such tenants.


Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Standards

     In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Statement No. 133,  Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities, which is required to be adopted in fiscal years beginning after
June 15, 1999. In June 1999, the FASB issued Statement No. 137, Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities -- Deferral of the FASB Statement
No. 133, which stipulates the required adoption date to be all fiscal years
beginning after June 15, 2000. In June, 2000, FASB issued Statement No. 138,
Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities --
an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133. Statement No. 133, as amended by
Statement No. 138, requires us to recognize all derivatives on the balance
sheet at fair value. Derivatives that are not hedges must be adjusted to fair
value through income. If the derivative is a hedge, depending on the nature of
the hedge, changes in the fair value of derivatives will either be offset
against the change in fair value of


                                       24
<PAGE>

the hedged assets, liabilities or firm commitments through earnings or
recognized in other comprehensive income until the hedged item is recognized in
earnings. The ineffective portion of a derivative's change in fair value will be
immediately recognized in earnings. We will adopt SFAS No. 133/138, Accounting
for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities on January 1, 2001. This new
accounting standard requires companies to carry all derivative instruments,
including certain embedded derivatives, in the statement of financial condition
at fair value. The accounting for changes in the fair value of a derivative
instrument depends on whether it has been designated and qualifies as part of a
hedging relationship and, if so, on the reason for holding it. We use only
qualifying hedges that are designated specifically to reduce exposure to
interest rate risk by locking in the expected future cash payments on certain
liabilities. This is typically accomplished using an interest rate swap, collar
or cap. For financial reporting purposes, the gain or loss on the effective
portion of the interest rate hedge is recorded as a component of equity, which
becomes reclassified into earnings along with payments on the hedged liability.

     Upon adoption of SFAS No. 133/138 in January 2001, we will record a net
transition adjustment of $555,962 in unrealized loss (income statement) and a
net transition adjustment of $125,000 in accumulated other comprehensive income
(equity) at that time. Adoption of the standard results in us recognizing
$127,000 of derivative instrument liabilities. Adoption of SFAS No. 133/138 also
results in a reclassification of approximately $10.6 million of deferred
financing costs from past cashflow hedging relationships from other assets to
other comprehensive income. As in the past, these amounts will be recognized as
additional interest expense when the related cash flow payments on the debt are
made. In general, the amount of volatility will vary with the level of
derivative activities during any period. The fair market value of our
derivatives is discussed under " -- Liquidity and Capital Resources."

     Effective January 1, 2000, we adopted Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101,
Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements ("SAB 101"). SAB 101 does not change
existing rules on revenue recognition. Rather, the SAB explains how existing
revenue recognition guidance should be applied for transactions not specifically
addressed by existing rules. The adoption of SAB 101 did not have a material
impact on our net income or financial position.


Compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act

     Under the Americans with Disabilities Act (the "ADA"), all public
accommodations and commercial facilities are required to meet certain federal
requirements related to access and use by disabled persons. These requirements
became effective in 1992. Compliance with the ADA requirements could require
removal of access barriers, and noncompliance could result in imposition of
fines by the U.S. government or an award of damages to private litigants.
Although we believe that our properties are substantially in compliance with
these requirements, we may incur additional costs to comply with the ADA.
Although we believe that such costs will not have a material adverse effect on
us, if required changes involve a greater expenditure than we currently
anticipate, our results of operations, liquidity and capital resources could be
materially adversely affected.


Funds From Operations and Cash Available for Distributions

     We consider funds from operations ("FFO") to be a useful financial
performance measure of the operating performance of an equity REIT because,
together with net income and cash flows, FFO provides investors with an
additional basis to evaluate the ability of a REIT to incur and service debt and
to fund acquisitions and other capital expenditures. FFO does not represent net
income or cash flows from operating, investing or financing activities as
defined by Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP"). It should not be
considered as an alternative to net income as an indicator of our operating
performance or to cash flows as a measure of liquidity. FFO does not measure
whether cash flow is sufficient to fund all cash needs, including principal
amortization, capital improvements and distributions to stockholders. Further,
FFO as disclosed by other REITs may not be comparable to our calculation of FFO,
as described below. FFO and cash available for distributions should not be
considered as alternatives to net income as an indication of our performance or
to cash flows as a measure of liquidity.

                                       25
<PAGE>

     FFO equals net income (computed in accordance with GAAP) excluding gains
(or losses) from debt restructuring and sales of property, plus depreciation and
amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint
ventures. In March 1995, the National Association of Real Estate Investment
Trusts ("NAREIT") issued a clarification of the definition of FFO. The
clarification provides that amortization of deferred financing costs and
depreciation of non-real estate assets are no longer to be added back to net
income in arriving at FFO. In October 1999, NAREIT issued an additional
clarification effective as of January 1, 2000 stipulating that FFO should
include both recurring and non-recurring operating results. Consistent with this
clarification, non-recurring items that are not defined as "extraordinary" under
GAAP will be reflected in the calculation of FFO. Gains and losses from the sale
of depreciable operating property will continue to be excluded from the
calculation of FFO.

     Cash available for distribution is defined as funds from operations reduced
by non-revenue enhancing capital expenditures for building improvements and
tenant improvements and lease commissions related to second generation space.

     FFO and cash available for distribution for the years ended December 31,
2000, 1999 and 1998 are summarized in the following table (in thousands):

Inflation

     In the last five years, inflation has not had a significant impact on us
because of the relatively low inflation rate in our geographic areas of
operation. Most of the leases require the tenants to pay their pro rata share of
operating expenses, including common area maintenance, real estate taxes and
insurance, thereby reducing our exposure to increases in operating expenses
resulting from inflation. In addition, 91.7% of the leases are for remaining
terms of less than seven years, which may enable us to replace existing leases
with new leases at a higher base if rents on the existing leases are below the
then-existing market rate.


Disclosure Regarding Forward-looking Statements

     Some of the information in this Annual Report on Form 10-K may contain
forward-looking statements. Such statements include, in particular, statements
about our plans, strategies and prospects under the headings "Business" and
"Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations." You can identify forward-looking statements by our use of
forward-looking terminology such as "may," "will," "expect," "anticipate,"
"estimate," "continue" or other similar words. Although we believe that our
plans, intentions and expectations reflected in or suggested by such
forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot assure you that our plans,
intentions or expectations will be achieved. When considering such
forward-looking statements, you should keep in mind the following important
factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those
contained in any forward-looking statement:

     o our markets could suffer unexpected increases in development of office,
       industrial and retail properties;

     o the financial condition of our tenants could deteriorate;

     o the costs of our development projects could exceed our original
       estimates;

     o we may not be able to complete development, acquisition or joint venture
       projects as quickly or on as favorable terms as anticipated;

     o we may not be able to lease or release space quickly or on as favorable
       terms as old leases;

     o we may have incorrectly assessed the environmental condition of our
       properties;

     o an unexpected increase in interest rates would increase our debt service
       costs;

     o we may not be able to continue to meet our long-term liquidity
       requirements on favorable terms;

     o we could lose key executive officers; and

     o our southeastern markets may suffer an unexpected decline in economic
       growth or increase in unemployment rates.

     Given these uncertainties, we caution you not to place undue reliance on
forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to publicly release the
results of any revisions to these forward-looking statements that may be made to
reflect any future events or circumstances or to reflect the occurrence of
unanticipated events.

ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

     The effects of potential changes in interest rates are discussed below. Our
market risk discussion includes "forward-looking statements" and represents an
estimate of possible changes in fair value or future earnings that would occur
assuming hypothetical future movements in interest rates. These disclosures are
not precise indicators of expected future losses, but only indicators of
reasonably possible losses. As a result, actual future results may differ
materially from those presented. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Results of Operations -- Liquidity and Capital Resources" and the notes to the
consolidated financial statements for a description of our accounting policies
and other information related to these financial instruments.

     To meet in part our long-term liquidity requirements, we borrow funds at a
combination of fixed and variable rates. Borrowings under the Revolving Loan
bear interest at variable rates. Our long-term debt, which consists of long-term
financings and the issuance of debt securities, typically bears interest at
fixed rates. In addition, we have assumed fixed rate and variable rate debt in
connection with acquiring properties. Our interest rate risk management
objective is to limit the impact of interest rate changes on earnings and cash
flows and to lower our overall borrowing costs. To achieve these objectives,
from time to time we enter into interest rate hedge contracts such as collars,
swaps, caps and treasury lock agreements in order to mitigate our interest rate
risk with respect to various debt instruments. We do not hold or issue these
derivative contracts for trading or speculative purposes.

     Certain Variable Rate Debt. As of December 31, 2000, the Company had
approximately $37.0 million of variable rate debt outstanding that was not
protected by interest rate hedge contracts. If the weighted average interest
rate on this variable rate debt is 100 basis points higher or lower during the
12 months ended December 31, 2001, our interest expense would be increased or
decreased approximately $370,000.

     Interest Rate Hedge Contracts. For a discussion of our interest rate hedge
contracts in effect at December 31, 2000, see "Management's Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations -- Liquidity and
Capital Resources -- Capitalization." If interest rates increase by 100 basis
points, the aggregate fair market value of these interest rate hedge contracts
as of December 31, 2000 would increase by approximately $552,000. If interest
rates decrease by 100 basis points, the aggregate fair market value of these
interest rate hedge contracts as of December 31, 2000 would decrease by
approximately $761,000.

     In addition, we are exposed to certain losses in the event of
nonperformance by the counterparties under the hedge contracts. We expect the
counterparties, which are major financial institutions, to perform fully under
these contracts. However, if the counterparties were to default on their
obligations under the interest rate hedge contracts, we could be required to pay
the full rates on our debt, even if such rates were in excess of the rates in
the contracts.

                         REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS


THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND STOCKHOLDERS
HIGHWOODS PROPERTIES, INC.

     We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Highwoods
Properties, Inc. as of December 31, 2000 and 1999, and the related consolidated
statements of income, stockholders' equity, and cash flows for each of the three
years in the period ended December 31, 2000. Our audits also included the
financial statement schedule listed in the Index at Item 14(a). These financial
statements and schedule are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these 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
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 financial statements referred to above present fairly,
in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Highwoods
Properties, Inc. at December 31, 2000 and 1999, and the consolidated results of
its operations and its 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. Also, in our opinion, the related financial
statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic financial
statements taken as a whole, presents fairly in all material respects the
information set forth therein.

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                                December 31, 2000


1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Description of the Company

     Highwoods Properties, Inc. (the "Company") is a self-administered and
self-managed real estate investment trust ("REIT") which operates in the
southeastern and midwestern United States. The Company's wholly owned assets
include: 493 in-service office, industrial and retail properties; 1,885
apartment units; 1,317 acres of undeveloped land suitable for future
development; and an additional 26 properties under development.

     The Company conducts substantially all of its activities through, and
substantially all of its interests in the properties are held directly or
indirectly by, Highwoods Realty Limited Partnership (the "Operating
Partnership"). The Company is the sole general partner of the Operating
Partnership. At December 31, 2000, the Company owned 88.0% of the common
partnership interests ("Common Units") in the Operating Partnership. Limited
partners (including certain officers and directors of the Company) own the
remaining Common Units. Holders of Common Units may redeem them for the cash
value of one share of the Company's common stock, $.01 par value (the "Common
Stock"), or, at the Company's option, one share (subject to certain adjustments)
of Common Stock.

     Generally one year after issuance, the Operating Partnership is obligated
to redeem each Common Unit at the request of the holder thereof for cash equal
to the fair market value of one share of the Company's Common Stock at the time
of such redemption, provided that the Company at its option may elect to acquire
any such Common Unit presented for redemption for cash or one share of Common
Stock. When a Common Unit holder redeems a Common Unit for a share of Common
Stock or cash, the minority interest will be reduced and the Company's share in
the Operating Partnership will be increased. The Common Units owned by the
Company are not redeemable for cash.


Basis of Presentation

     The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company
and the Operating Partnership and its majority-owned affiliates. All significant
intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidated
financial statements.

     The Company is a REIT under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

     Minority interest represents the limited partnership interest in the
Operating Partnership owned by Common Unit holders other than the Company. Per
share information is calculated using the weighted average number of common
shares outstanding.

     The extraordinary loss represents the payment of prepayment penalties and
the writeoff of loan origination fees related to the early extinguishment of
debt and is shown net of the minority interest's share in the loss.


Real Estate Assets

     All capitalizable costs related to the improvement or replacement of
commercial real estate properties are capitalized. Depreciation is computed by
the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of 40 years for
buildings and improvements and five to seven years for furniture, fixtures and
equipment. Tenant improvements are amortized over the life of the respective
leases, using the straight-line method. Real estate assets are stated at the
lower of cost or fair value, if impaired.

           NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (Continued)

1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES -- Continued

     The Company evaluates its real estate assets upon the occurrence of
significant adverse changes in their operations to assess whether any impairment
indicators are present that affect the recovery of the recorded value. If any
real estate assets are considered impaired, a loss is provided to reduce the
carrying value of the property to its estimated fair value. As of December 31,
2000, none of the Company's assets were considered impaired.

     As of December 31, 2000, the Company had 258,000 square feet of properties
and 1,672 apartment units under contract for sale in various transactions
totaling $161.3 million. These real estate assets have a carrying value of
$127.8 million and have been classified as assets held for sale in the
accompanying financial statements.


Cash Equivalents

     The Company considers highly liquid investments with a maturity of three
months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.


Restricted Cash

     The Company is required by certain mortgage notes to escrow real estate
taxes with the mortgagor. At December 31, 2000 and 1999, those balances were
$737,602 and $1,683,282, respectively.


Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates

     Investments in unconsolidated affiliates are accounted for using the equity
method and reflect the Company's share of income or loss of the affiliate,
reduced by distributions received and increased by contributions made.


Revenue Recognition

     Minimum rental income is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term
of the lease. Unpaid rents are included in accounts receivable. Certain lease
agreements provide for the reimbursement of real estate taxes, insurance,
advertising and certain common area maintenance costs. These additional rents
are recorded on the accrual basis. All rent and other receivables from tenants
are due from commercial building tenants located in the properties.


Deferred Lease Fees and Loan Costs

     Lease fees, concessions and loan costs are capitalized at cost and
amortized over the life of the related lease or loan term, respectively.


Income Taxes

     The Company is a REIT for federal income tax purposes. A corporate REIT is
a legal entity that holds real estate assets, and through distributions to
stockholders, is permitted to reduce or avoid the payment of Federal income
taxes at the corporate level. As of December 31, 2000, to maintain qualification
as a REIT, the Company must distribute to stockholders at least 95% of REIT
taxable income. Effective January 1, 2001, the Company must distribute to
stockholders at least 90% of REIT taxable income to maintain qualification as a
REIT.

     No provision has been made for income taxes because the Company qualified
as a REIT, distributed the necessary amount of taxable income and, therefore,
incurred no income tax expense during the period.

1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES -- Continued

Concentration of Credit Risk

     Management of the Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its
tenants. As of December 31, 2000, the wholly owned in-service properties
(excluding apartment units) were leased to 2,712 tenants in 14 geographic
locations. The Company's tenants engage in a wide variety of businesses. There
is no dependence upon any single tenant.


Interest Rate Risk Management

     The Company may enter into interest rate hedge contracts such as swaps,
caps and collars in order to mitigate its interest rate risk on financial
instruments. The Company has designated these derivative financial instruments
as hedges and applies deferral accounting. Gains and losses related to the
termination of such derivative financial instruments are deferred and amortized
to interest expense over the term of the applicable debt instrument. Payments to
or from counterparties are recorded as adjustments to interest expense.

     The Company also utilizes treasury lock agreements to hedge interest rate
risk on anticipated debt offerings. These anticipatory hedges are designated as
hedges of identified debt issuances which have a high probability of occurring.
Gains and losses resulting from changes in the market value of these contracts
are deferred and amortized into interest expense over the life of the related
debt instrument.

     The Company is exposed to certain losses in the event of non-performance by
the counterparties under the interest rate hedge contracts. The counterparties
are major financial institutions, and are expected to perform fully under the
agreements. However, if they were to default on their obligations under the
arrangements, the Company could be required to pay the full rate under its
$300.0 million unsecured revolving loan (the "Revolving Loan") and the variable
rate mortgages, even if such rate were in excess of the rate in the interest
rate hedge contracts. The Company would not realize a material loss as of
December 31, 2000, in the event of non-performance by any one counterparty.
Additionally, the Company limits the amount of credit exposure with any one
institution.


Stock Compensation

     The Company grants stock options for a fixed number of shares to employees
with an exercise price equal to the fair value of the shares at the date of
grant. As described in Note 9, the Company has elected to follow Accounting
Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees"
("APB 25") and related interpretations in accounting for its employee stock
options.

Use of Estimates

     The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and
accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.


Comprehensive Income

     Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130, Reporting
Comprehensive Income ("FAS 130") requires that total comprehensive income and
comprehensive income per share be disclosed with equal prominence as net income
and earnings per share. Comprehensive income is defined as changes in
stockholders' equity exclusive of transactions with owners such as capital
contributions and dividends. The Company did not report any comprehensive income
items in any of the years presented.


Segment Reporting

     Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 131, Disclosures about
Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information ("FAS 131") establishes
standards for the public reporting of information about operating segments in
annual financial statements and requires that those enterprises report selected
information about operating segments in interim financial reports.


Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Standards

     In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Statement No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,
which is required to be adopted in fiscal years beginning after June 15, 1999.
In June 1999, the FASB issued Statement No. 137, Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities -- Deferral of the FASB Statement No. 133,
which stipulates the required adoption date to be all fiscal years beginning
after June 15, 2000. In June 2000, FASB issued Statement No. 138, Accounting for
Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities -- an amendment of
FASB Statement No. 133. Statement No. 133, as amended by Statement No. 138,
requires the Company to recognize all derivatives on the balance sheet at fair
value. Derivatives that are not hedges must be adjusted to fair value through
income. If the derivative is a hedge, depending on the nature of the hedge,
changes in the fair value of derivatives will either be offset against the
change in fair value of the hedged assets, liabilities or firm commitments
through earnings or recognized in other comprehensive income until the hedged
item is recognized in earnings. The ineffective portion of a derivative's change
in fair value will be immediately recognized in earnings. The fair market value
of the Company's derivatives is discussed in Note 3. The Company will adopt SFAS
No. 133/138, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, on
January 1, 2001. This new accounting standard requires companies to carry all
derivative instruments, including certain embedded derivatives, in the statement
of financial condition at fair value. The accounting for changes in the fair
value of a derivative instrument depends on whether it has been designated and
qualifies as part of a hedging relationship and, if so, on the reason for
holding it. The Company uses only qualifying hedges that are designated
specifically to reduce exposure to interest rate risk by locking in the expected
future cash payments on certain liabilities. This is typically accomplished
using an interest rate swap, collar or cap. For financial reporting purposes,
the gain or loss on the effective portion of the interest rate hedge is recorded
as a component of equity, which becomes reclassified into earnings along with
payments on the hedged liability.

     In connection with the adoption of SFAS No. 133/138 in January 2001, the
Company recorded a net transition adjustment of $555,962 in unrealized loss
(income statement) and a net transition adjustment of $125,000 in accumulated
other comprehensive income (equity). Adoption of the standard has also resulted
in the Company recognizing $127,000 of derivative instrument liabilities.

1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES -- Continued

No. 133/138 also results in a reclassification of approximately $10.6 million of
deferred financing costs from past cashflow hedging relationships from other
assets to other comprehensive income. As in the past, these amounts will be
recognized as additional interest expense when the related cash flow payments on
the debt are made. In general, the amount of volatility will vary with the level
of derivative activities during any period.

     Effective January 1, 2000, the Company adopted Staff Accounting Bulletin
No. 101, Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements ("SAB 101"). SAB 101 did
not change existing rules on revenue recognition. Rather, it explains how
existing revenue recognition guidance should be applied for transactions not
specifically addressed by existing rules. The adoption of SAB 101 did not have a
material impact on the Company's net income or financial position.


Reclassifications

     Certain amounts in the December 31, 1999 and 1998 Financial Statements have
been reclassified to conform to the December 31, 2000 presentation. These
reclassifications had no material effect on net income or stockholders' equity
as previously reported.


2. INVESTMENTS IN UNCONSOLIDATED AFFILIATES

     On March 15, 1999, the Company closed a transaction with
Schweiz-Deutschland-USA Dreilander Beteiligung Objekt DLF 98/29-Walker Fink-KG
("DLF"), pursuant to which the Company sold or contributed certain office
properties valued at approximately $142.0 million to a newly created limited
partnership (the "Joint Venture"). DLF contributed approximately $55.0 million
for a 77.19% interest in the Joint Venture, and the Joint Venture borrowed
approximately $71.0 million from third-party lenders. The Company retained the
remaining 22.81% interest in the Joint Venture, received net cash proceeds of
approximately $124.0 million and is the sole and exclusive manager and leasing
agent of the Joint Venture's properties, for which the Company receives
customary management fees and leasing commissions.

     In addition, in connection with its merger with J.C. Nichols Company in
July 1998, the Company succeeded to the interests of J.C. Nichols in a strategic
alliance with R&R Investors, Ltd. pursuant to which R&R Investors manages and
leases certain co-venture properties located in the Des Moines area. As a result
of the merger, the Company acquired an ownership interest of 50% or more in a
series of nine co-ventures with R&R Investors. Certain of these properties were
previously included in the Company's consolidated financial statements. On June
2, 1999, the Company agreed with R&R Investors to reorganize its respective
ownership interests in the Des Moines properties such that each would own a 50%
interest in the properties in the Des Moines area. Accordingly, the Company has
adopted the equity method of accounting for its investment in each of the Des
Moines properties as a result of such reorganization. The impact of the
reorganization was immaterial to the consolidated financial statements of the
Company.

     On May 9, 2000, the Company closed a transaction with Dreilander-Fonds
97/26 and 99/32 ("DLF II") pursuant to which the Company sold or contributed
five in-service office properties encompassing 570,000 rentable square feet and
a 246,000-square-foot development project valued at approximately $110.0 million
to a newly created limited partnership (the "DLF II Joint Venture"). DLF II
contributed $24.0 million in cash for a 40.0% ownership interest in the DLF II
Joint Venture and the DLF II Joint Venture borrowed approximately $50.0 million
from a third-party lender. The Company initially retained the remaining 60.0%
interest in the DLF II Joint Venture, received net cash proceeds of
approximately $74.0 million and is the sole and exclusive manager and leasing
agent of the DLF II Joint Venture's properties, for which the Company receives
customary management fees and leasing commissions. During

2000, DLF II contributed an additional $8.2 million in cash to the DLF II Joint
Venture, which increased its ownership percentage to 53.0%. The Company has
adopted the equity method of accounting for this joint venture.

     On December 19, 2000, the Company formed various joint ventures with
Denver-based Miller Global Properties, LLC ("Miller Global"). In the first joint
venture, the Company sold or contributed 19 in-service office properties
encompassing approximately 2.5 million rentable square feet valued at
approximately $335.0 million to a newly created limited liability company. As
part of the formation of the first joint venture, Miller Global contributed
approximately $85.0 million in cash for an 80% ownership interest and the joint
venture borrowed approximately $238.8 million from a third-party lender. The
Company retained a 20.0% ownership interest and received net cash proceeds of
approximately $307.0 million. The Company has also agreed to contribute two
additional development properties valued at approximately $10.3 million for a
20.0% ownership interest during the first part of 2001. The joint venture
expects to borrow up to $7.2 million in connection with these two projects that
will be funded by the existing third party lender. In the remaining joint
ventures, the Company contributed approximately $7.5 million of development land
to various newly created limited liability companies. These joint ventures
expect to develop four properties encompassing 435,000 rentable square feet with
a budgeted cost of approximately $61.0 million. The Company and Miller Global
each own 50.0% of these joint ventures. In addition, the Company is the sole and
exclusive manager and leasing agent for the properties in all of these joint
ventures and receives customary management fees and leasing commissions. The
Company has adopted the equity method of accounting for all of these joint
ventures.

     As a result of these transactions, the Company had investments accounted
for under the equity method of accounting which consisted of the following at
December 31, 2000 and 1999:

Secured Indebtedness

     Mortgage notes payable were secured by real estate assets with an aggregate
carrying value of $1.0 billion at December 31, 2000.


Unsecured Indebtedness

     On June 24, 1997, the Operating Partnership sold $100.0 million of
Exercisable Put Option Notes due June 15, 2011 (the "Put Option Notes"). The Put
Option Notes bear an interest rate of 7.19%. Under certain circumstances, the
Put Option Notes could become subject to early maturity on June 15, 2004.

     On February 2, 1998, the Operating Partnership sold $125.0 million of
MandatOry Par Put Remarketed Securities ("MOPPRS") due February 1, 2013. The
MOPPRS bear an interest rate of 6.835%. Under certain circumstances, the MOPPRS
could become subject to early maturity on January 31, 2003.

     On December 14, 2000, the Company obtained its new $300.0 million revolving
loan (the "Revolving Loan") from a group of 10 lender banks. The Revolving Loan
matures in December 2003 and replaces the Company's previous $450.0 million
revolving credit facility. The Revolving Loan carries an interest rate based
upon the Company's senior unsecured credit ratings. As a result, interest would
currently accrue on borrowings under the Revolving Loan at an average rate of
LIBOR plus 85 basis points. The

Revolving Loan also includes a $150.0 million competitive bid sub-facility. At
December 31, 2000, the Company had not borrowed any funds under the Revolving
Loan. The terms of the Revolving Loan require the Company to pay an annual
facility fee equal to .20% of the aggregate amount of the Revolving Loan and
require compliance with certain financial covenants. At December 31, 2000, the
Company was in compliance with these covenants.


Interest Rate Hedge Contracts

     To meet in part its long-term liquidity requirements, the Company borrows
funds at a combination of fixed and variable rates. Borrowings under the
Revolving Loan bear interest at variable rates. The Company's long-term debt,
which consists of long-term financings and the issuance of debt securities,
typically bears interest at fixed rates. In addition, the Company has assumed
fixed rate and variable rate debt in connection with acquiring properties. The
Company's interest rate risk management objective is to limit the impact of
interest rate changes on earnings and cash flows and to lower its overall
borrowing costs. To achieve these objectives, from time to time the Company
enters into interest rate hedge contracts such as collars, swaps, caps and
treasury lock agreements in order to mitigate its interest rate risk with
respect to various debt instruments. The Company does not hold or issue these
derivative contracts for trading or speculative purposes.

     The following table sets forth information regarding the Company's interest
rate hedge contracts as of December 31, 2000 ($ in thousands):

</TABLE>

     The interest rate on all of the Company's variable rate debt is adjusted at
one- and three-month intervals, subject to settlements under these contracts.
Net receipts/(payments) made to counterparties under interest rate hedge
contracts were ($206,894), $304,720 and $48,000 in 2000, 1999 and 1998,
respectively, and were recorded as (decreases)/increases to interest expense.

     In addition, the Company is exposed to certain losses in the event of
non-performance by the counterparties under the interest rate hedge contracts.
The Company expects the counterparties, which are major financial institutions,
to perform fully under these contracts. However, if the counterparties were to
default on their obligations under the interest rate hedge contracts, the
Company could be required to pay the full rates on its debt, even if such rates
were in excess of the rates in the contracts.

4. EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

Management Compensation Program

     The Company's executive officers participate in an annual cash incentive
bonus program whereby they are eligible for cash bonuses based on a percentage
of their annual base salary as of the prior December. Each executive's target
level bonus is determined by competitive analysis and the executive's ability to
influence overall performance of the Company and, assuming certain levels of the
Company's performance, ranges from 40% to 85% of base salary depending on
position in the Company. The eligible bonus percentage for each executive is
determined by a weighted average of the Company's actual performance versus its
annual plan using the following measures: return on invested capital; growth in
funds from operations ("FFO") per share; property level cash flow as a
percentage of plan; general and administrative expenses as a percentage of
revenue; and growth in same store net operating income. To the extent this
weighted average is less than or exceeds the Company's targeted performance
level, the bonus percentage paid is proportionally reduced or increased on a
predetermined scale. Depending on the Company's performance, annual incentive
bonuses could range from zero to 200% of an executive's target level bonus.
Bonuses are accrued in the year earned and are included in accrued expenses in
the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

     Beginning on January 1, 1999, the Company established a Shareholder Value
Plan which allows executive officers to participate in a long term incentive
plan which includes annual grants of stock options and restricted shares. The
mix of awards varies by position in the Company. The stock options vest ratably
over four years. The restricted shares vest 50% after three years and 50% after
five years. The

recipients are eligible to receive dividends on restricted stock issued.

     The Shareholder Value Plan rewards the executive officers of the Company
when the total shareholder returns measured by increases in the market value of
the Common Stock plus the dividends on those shares exceeds a comparable index
of the Company's peers over a three year period. The payout for this program is
determined by the Company's percent change in shareholder return compared to the
composite index of its peer group. If the Company's performance is not at least
100% of the peer group index, no payout is made. To the extent performance
exceeds the peer group, the payout increases. A new three year plan cycle begins
each year under this program.

     In September 2000, the Company established a deferred compensation plan
pursuant to which various executive officers could elect to defer a portion of
the compensation that would otherwise be paid to the executive officer for
investment in units of phantom stock. The maximum amount any executive officer
can elect to defer for investment in units of phantom stock in any year is 25%
each of his gross base salary and annual incentive bonus. At the end of each
calendar quarter, any executive officer that elects to defer compensation in
such a manner is credited with units of phantom stock at a 15% discount. Payouts
will generally be made five years after the end of the calendar year in which
units of phantom stock were credited.


401(k) Savings Plan

     The Company has a 401(k) savings plan covering substantially all employees
who meet certain age and employment criteria. The Company matches the first 6.0%
of compensation deferred at the rate of 75.0% of employee contributions. During
2000, 1999 and 1998, the Company contributed $955,303, $763,319, and $588,000,
respectively, to the 401(k) savings plan. Administrative expenses of the plan
are paid by the Company.


Employee Stock Purchase Plan

     In August 1997, the Company instituted an Employee Stock Purchase Plan for
all active employees. At the end of each three-month offering period, each
participant's account balance is applied to acquire shares of Common Stock at
85% of the market value of the Common Stock, calculated as the lower of the
average closing price on the New York Stock Exchange on the five consecutive
days preceding the first day of the quarter or the five days preceding the last
day of the quarter. A participant may not invest more than $7,500 per quarter.
Employees purchased 55,593 and 29,214 shares of Common Stock under the Employee
Stock Purchase Plan during the years ended December 31, 2000 and 1999,
respectively.

5. RENTAL INCOME

     The Company's real estate assets are leased to tenants under operating
leases, substantially all of which expire over the next 10 years. The minimum
rental amounts under the leases are generally either subject to scheduled fixed
increases or adjustments based on the Consumer Price Index. Generally, the
leases also require that the tenants reimburse the Company for increases in
certain costs above the base year costs.

     Expected future minimum rents to be received over the next five years and
thereafter from tenants for leases in effect at December 31, 2000, are as
follows (in thousands):

6. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

     The Company makes advances to Highwoods Services, Inc. for working capital
purposes. These advances bear interest at a rate of 8% per annum, are due on
demand and totaled $27.1 million at December 31, 2000, and $15.1 million at
December 31, 1999. The Company recorded interest income from these advances of
$1.2 million, $1.1 million and $826,000 for the years ended December 31, 2000,
1999 and 1998, respectively.

     On December 8, 1998, the Company purchased the Bluegrass Valley office
development project from a limited liability company controlled by an executive
officer and director of the Company for approximately $2.5 million. On July 16,
1999, the Company purchased development land and an option to purchase other
development land in the Bluegrass Valley office development project from the
same limited liability company controlled by the same executive officer and
director of the Company for approximately $4.6 million in Common Units.

     During 2000, the Company sold certain properties encompassing 2.0 million
square feet to an entity controlled by a former executive officer and director
for approximately $169.0 million, consisting of cash, shares of Common Stock,
Common Units and the waiver and/or termination of certain outstanding
obligations existing under various agreements between the Company and such
former executive officer and director.

     The Company's tax returns for the year ended December 31, 2000 have not
been filed, and the taxability information for 2000 is based upon the best
available data. The Company's tax returns have not been examined by the IRS, and
therefore the taxability of distributions is subject to change.

     As of December 31, 2000, the tax basis of the Company's assets was
$3,178,835,000.

     On January 30, 2001, the Board of Directors declared a Common Stock
distribution of $.57 per share payable on February 22, 2001, to stockholders of
record on February 9, 2001.


Preferred Stock

     On February 12, 1997, the Company issued 125,000 8 5/8% Series A Cumulative
Redeemable Preferred Shares (the "Series A Preferred Shares"). The Series A
Preferred Shares are non-voting and have a liquidation preference of $1,000 per
share for an aggregate liquidation preference of $125.0 million plus accrued and
unpaid dividends. The net proceeds (after underwriting commission and other
offering costs) of the Series A Preferred Shares issued were $121.8 million.
Holders of the Series A Preferred Shares are entitled to receive, when, as and
if declared by the Company's Board of Directors, out of funds legally available
for payment of distributions, cumulative preferential cash distributions at a
rate of 8 5/8% of the liquidation preference per annum (equivalent to $86.25 per
share). On or after February 12, 2027, the Series A Preferred Shares may be
redeemed for cash at the option of the Company. The redemption price (other than
the portion thereof consisting of accrued and unpaid distributions) is payable
solely out of the sale proceeds of other capital shares of the Company, which
may include shares of other series of preferred stock. Of the $86.25
distribution paid per Series A Preferred Share in 2000, $67.14 will be taxed as
ordinary income and $19.11 will be taxed as capital gain.

     On September 25, 1997, the Company issued 6,900,000 8% Series B Cumulative
Redeemable Preferred Shares (the "Series B Preferred Shares"). The Series B
Preferred Shares are non-voting and have a liquidation preference of $25 per
share for an aggregate liquidation preference of $172.5 million plus accrued and
unpaid dividends. The net proceeds (after underwriting commission and other
offering costs) of the Series B Preferred Shares issued were $166.3 million.
Holders of the Series B Preferred Shares are entitled to receive, when, as and
if declared by the Company's Board of Directors, out of funds legally available
for payment of distributions, cumulative preferential cash distributions at a
rate of 8% of the liquidation preference per annum (equivalent to $2.00 per
share). On or after September 25, 2002, the Series B Preferred Shares may be
redeemed for cash at the option of the Company. The redemption price (other than
the portion thereof consisting of accrued and unpaid distributions) is payable
solely out of the sale proceeds of other capital shares of the Company, which
may include shares of other series of preferred stock. Of the $2.00 distribution
paid per Series B Preferred Share 2000, $1.56 will be taxed as ordinary income
and $0.44 will be taxed as capital gain.

     On April 23, 1998, the Company issued 4,000,000 depositary shares (the
"Series D Depositary Shares"), each representing a 1/10 fractional interest in
an 8% Series D Cumulative Redeemable Preferred

Share (the "Series D Preferred Shares"). The Series D Preferred Shares are
non-voting and have a liquidation preference of $250 per share for an aggregate
liquidation preference of $100 million plus accrued and unpaid dividends. The
net proceeds (after underwriting commission and other offering costs) of the
Series D Preferred Shares issued were $96.8 million. Holders of Series D
Preferred Shares are entitled to receive, when, as and if declared by the
Company's Board of Directors, out of funds legally available for payment of
distributions, cumulative preferential cash distributions at a rate of 8% of the
liquidation preference per annum (equivalent to $20.00 per share). On or after
April 23, 2003, the Series D Preferred Shares may be redeemed for cash at the
option of the Company. The redemption price (other than the portion thereof
consisting of accrued and unpaid distributions) is payable solely out of the
sale proceeds of other capital shares of the Company, which may include shares
of other series of preferred stock. Of the $20.00 distribution paid per Series D
Preferred Share in 2000, $15.57 will be taxed as ordinary income and $4.43 will
be taxed as capital gain.


Shareholder Rights Plan

     On October 4, 1997, the Board declared a dividend on one preferred share
purchase right ("Right") for each outstanding share of Common Stock to be
distributed to all holders of record of the Common Stock on October 16, 1997.
The Rights attach to shares of Common Stock subsequently issued. Each Right
entitles the registered holder to purchase one-hundredth of a participating
preferred share for an exercise price of $140.00 per one-hundredth of a
participating preferred share, subject to adjustment as provided in the rights
agreement. The Rights will generally be exercisable only if a person or group
acquires 15% or more of the Common Stock or announces a tender offer for 15% or
more of the Common Stock. The Rights will expire on October 6, 2007, unless the
expiration date of the Rights is extended, and the Rights are subject to
redemption at a price of $0.01 per Right under certain circumstances.


Dividend Reinvestment Plan

     The Company has instituted a Dividend Reinvestment and Stock Purchase Plan
under which holders of Common Stock may elect to automatically reinvest their
distributions in additional shares of Common Stock and may make optional cash
payments for additional shares of Common Stock. The Company may issue additional
shares of Common Stock or repurchase Common Stock in the open market for
purposes of financing its obligations under the Dividend Reinvestment and Stock
Purchase Plan.


Equity Settlement

     On August 28, 1997, the Company entered into a purchase agreement with UBS
AG, London Branch ("UB-LB") involving the sale of 1.8 million shares of Common
Stock and a related forward contract providing for certain purchase price
adjustments. The forward contract (as amended) generally provided that if the
market price was less than a certain amount, referred to as the "Forward Price,"
the Company would be required to pay UB-LB the difference times 1.8 million.
(Similarly, if the Market Price of a share of Common Stock was above the Forward
Price, UB-LB was required to pay the Company the difference in shares of Common
Stock.)

     On February 28, 1999, the Company and UB-LB amended the forward contract.
Pursuant to the amendment, UB-LB applied $12.8 million in Company collateral to
"buy down" the Forward Price by approximately $7.10 and the Company issued
161,924 shares of Common Stock to UB-LB as an interim settlement payment. On
June 9, 1999, the Company settled the transaction. In connection with the
settlement, 246,424 shares of Common Stock were returned and canceled.

Stock Repurchase

     On December 14, 1999, the Company announced that its board of directors had
authorized a share repurchase plan pursuant to which the Company may, at its
sole discretion, repurchase up to 10.0 million shares of its outstanding Common
Stock and Common Units. As of December 31, 2000, the Company had used net
proceeds from its disposition activity, either through direct payments or
repayment of borrowings under the Revolving Loan, to repurchase 5.4 million
shares of Common Stock and Common Units through periodic open market or
privately negotiated transactions at a weighted average price of $23.36 per
share.


8. EARNINGS PER SHARE

     FASB Statement No. 128 replaced the calculation of primary and fully
diluted earnings per share with basic and diluted earnings per share. Unlike
primary earnings per share, basic earnings per share excludes any dilutive
effects of options, warrants and convertible securities. Diluted earnings per
share is computed using the weighted average number of shares of Common Stock
and the dilutive effect of options, warrants and convertible securities
outstanding, using the "treasury stock" method. Earnings per share data are
required for all periods for which an income statement or summary of earnings is
presented, including summaries outside the basic financial statements. All
earnings per share amounts for all periods presented have, where appropriate,
been restated to conform to the FASB Statement 128 requirements.

9. STOCK OPTIONS AND WARRANTS

     As of December 31, 2000, 6,000,000 shares of the Company's authorized
Common Stock were reserved for issuance upon the exercise of options under the
Amended and Restated 1994 Stock Option Plan. Options generally vest over a four-
or five-year period beginning with the date of grant.

     In 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued a Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation," ("SFAS 123"). SFAS 123 recommends the use of a fair value based
method of accounting for an employee stock option whereby compensation cost is
measured at the grant date on the fair value of the award and is recognized over
the service period (generally the vesting period of the award). However, SFAS
123 specifically allows an entity to continue to measure compensation cost under
Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to
Employees" ("APB 25") so long as pro forma disclosures of net income and
earnings per share are made as if SFAS 123 had been adopted. The Company has
elected to follow APB 25 and related interpretations in accounting for its
employee stock options because the Company believes that the models available to
estimate the fair value of employee stock options do not provide a reliable
single measure of the fair value of employee stock options. Moreover, such
models required the input of highly subjective assumptions, which can materially
affect the fair value estimates. APB 25 requires the recognition of compensation
expense at the date of grant equal to the difference between the option price
and the value of the underlying stock. Because the exercise price of the
Company's employee stock options equals the market price of the underlying stock
on the date of grant, the Company records no compensation expense for the award
of employee stock options.

     Under SFAS 123, a public entity must estimate the fair value of a stock
option by using an option-pricing model that takes into account as of the grant
date the exercise price and expected life of the options, the current price of
the underlying stock and its expected volatility, expected dividends on the
stock, and the risk-free interest rate for the expected term of the option. SFAS
123 provides examples of possible pricing models and includes the Black-Scholes
pricing model, which the Company used to develop its pro forma disclosures.
However, as previously noted, the Company does not believe that such models
provide a reliable single measure of the fair value of employee stock options.
Furthermore, the Black-Scholes model was developed for use in estimating the
fair value of traded options that have no vesting restrictions and are fully
transferable, rather than for use in estimating the fair value of employee stock
options subject to vesting and transferability restrictions.

     Because SFAS 123 is applicable only to options granted subsequent to
December 31, 1994, only options granted subsequent to that date were valued
using this Black-Scholes model. The fair value of the options granted in 2000
was estimated at the dates of grant using the following weighted average
assumptions: risk-free interest rates ranging between 5.78% and 6.67%, dividend
yield of 10.91% and a weighted average expected life of the options of five
years. The fair value of the options granted in 1999 was estimated at the dates
of grant using the following weighted average assumptions: risk-free interest
rates ranging between 4.21% and 6.81%, dividend yield of 10.65% and a weighted
average expected life of the options of five years. The fair value of the
options granted in 1998 was estimated at the dates of grant using the following
weighted average assumptions: risk-free interest rates ranging between 3.29% and
6.01%, dividend yield of 9.0% and a weighted average expected life of the
options of five years. Had the compensation cost for the Company's stock option
plans been determined based on the fair value at the dates of grant for awards
in 2000, 1999 and 1998 consistent with the provisions of SFAS 123, the Company's
net income and net income per share would have decreased to the pro forma
amounts indicated below:

10. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES


Lease

     Certain properties in the Company's wholly owned portfolio are subject to
land leases expiring through 2082. Rental payments on these leases are adjusted
annually based on either the consumer price index or on a predetermined
schedule.

     For three properties, the Company has the option to purchase the leased
land during the lease term at the greater of 85% of appraised value or $35,000
per acre.

     For one property, the Company has the option to purchase the leased land at
any time during the lease term. The purchase price ranges from $1,800,000 to
$2,200,000 depending on the exercise date.

     The obligation for future minimum lease payments is as follows (in
thousands):

Litigation

     On October 2, 1998, John Flake, a former stockholder of J.C. Nichols
Company, filed a putative class action lawsuit on behalf of himself and the
other former stockholders of J.C. Nichols in the United States District Court
for the District of Kansas against J.C. Nichols, certain of its former officers
and directors and the Company. The complaint asserts claims against J.C. Nichols
and certain named directors and officers of J.C. Nichols for breach of fiduciary
duty to J.C. Nichols' stockholders and to members of the J.C. Nichols Company
Employee Stock Ownership Trust, as well as claims under Section 14(a) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Sections 11 and 12(2) of the Securities Act
of 1933 variously against J.C. Nichols, the named directors and officers of J.C.
Nichols and the Company. By order dated June 18, 1999, the court granted in part
and denied in part our motion to dismiss, and the court thereafter certified the
proposed class of plaintiffs with respect to the remaining claims. By order
dated August 28, 2000, the court granted in part and denied in part defendants'
summary judgment

motion. Defendants sought reconsideration of the court's ruling with respect to
certain of the securities claims as to which the court denied their summary
judgment motion, and by order dated January 11, 2001, the court granted in part
that reconsideration motion. On the eve of the trial of this matter, the parties
settled all their remaining claims. The terms of that settlement are now being
documented. The Company does not believe the settlement will have a material
adverse effect on its business, financial condition or results of operations.

     In addition, the Company is a party to a variety of legal proceedings
arising in the ordinary course of its business. The Company believes that it is
adequately covered by insurance and indemnification agreements. Accordingly,
none of such proceedings are expected to have a material adverse effect on the
Company's business, financial condition and results of operations.


Contracts

     The Company has entered into construction contracts totaling $417.4 million
at December 31, 2000. The amounts remaining on these contracts as of December
31, 2000 totaled $81.5 million.

     The Company has entered into various contracts under which it is committed
to acquire 97.4 acres of land over a three year period for an aggregate purchase
price of approximately $11.5 million.


Capital Expenditures

     The Company presently has no plans for major capital improvements to the
existing properties, other than normal recurring building improvements, tenant
improvements and lease commissions.


Environmental Matters

     Substantially all of the Company's in-service properties have been
subjected to Phase I environmental assessments (and, in certain instances, Phase
II environmental assessments). Such assessments and/or updates have not
revealed, nor is management aware of, any environmental liability that
management believes would have a material adverse effect on the accompanying
consolidated financial statements.


Employment Agreements

     As the Company has expanded into new markets, it has sought to enter into
business combinations with local real estate operators with many years of
management and development experience in their respective markets. Accordingly,
in connection with joining the Company as executive officers as a result of such
business combinations, these persons have entered into employment agreements
with the Company.


11. DISCLOSURE ABOUT FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

     The following disclosures of estimated fair values were determined by
management using available market information and appropriate valuation
methodologies. Considerable judgment is necessary to interpret market data and
develop estimated fair values. Accordingly, the estimates presented herein are
not necessarily indicative of the amounts that the Company could realize upon
disposition of the financial instruments. The use of different market
assumptions and/or estimation methodologies may have a material effect on the
estimated fair values. The carrying amounts and estimated fair values of the

     The fair values for the Company's fixed rate mortgages and notes payable
were estimated using discounted cash flow analysis, based on the Company's
estimated incremental borrowing rate at December 31, 2000, for similar types of
borrowing arrangements. The carrying amounts of the Company's variable rate
borrowings approximate fair value.

     The fair values of the Company's interest rate hedge contracts represent
the estimated amount the Company would receive or pay to terminate or replace
the financial instruments at current market rates.

     Disclosures about the fair value of financial instruments are based on

14. SEGMENT INFORMATION

     The sole business of the Company is the acquisition, development and
operation of rental real estate properties. The Company operates office,
industrial and retail properties and apartment units. There are no material
inter-segment transactions.

     The Company's chief operating decision maker ("CDM") assesses and measures
operating results based upon property level net operating income. The operating
results for the individual assets within each property type have been aggregated
since the CDM evaluates operating results and allocates resources on a
property-by-property basis within the various property types.
