ITEM 1. BUSINESS

GENERAL

     Reckson  Associates  Realty Corp.  was  incorporated  in September 1994 and
commenced  operations  effective  with  the  completion  of its  initial  public
offering on June 2, 1995. Reckson Associates Realty Corp., together with Reckson
Operating Partnership, L.P. (the "Operating Partnership"),  and their affiliates
(collectively,  the  "Company")  were formed for the purpose of  continuing  the
commercial   real  estate  business  of  Reckson   Associates,   its  affiliated
partnerships and other entities ("Reckson"). For more than 40 years, Reckson has
been engaged in the  business of owning,  developing,  acquiring,  constructing,
managing and leasing office and industrial  properties in the New York tri-state
area (the "Tri-State Area"). Based on industry surveys, management believes that
the  Company  is one of the  largest  owners  and  operators  of  Class A office
properties and industrial properties in the Tri-State Area. The Company operates
as a fully-integrated, self-administered and self-managed real estate investment
trust  ("REIT").  As of December 31, 1999, the Company owned 189 properties (the
"Properties")  (including  two joint venture  properties)  in the Tri-State Area
encompassing  approximately  21.4 million rentable square feet, all of which are
managed by the Company.  The Properties  consist of 77 Class A office properties
(the "Office Properties")  encompassing  approximately 13.1 million square feet,
110   industrial   properties   (the   "Industrial   Properties")   encompassing
approximately  8.3  million  square  feet  and two  10,000  square  foot  retail
properties.  The Company also owns a 357,000 square foot office building located
in Orlando,  Florida.  In addition,  as of December  31,  1999,  the Company had
approximately   $315.6  million  invested  in  certain   mortgage   indebtedness
encumbering  three  Class A Office  Properties  encompassing  approximately  1.6
million square feet,  approximately  472 acres of land located in New Jersey and
in a note receivable secured by a partnership interest in Omni Partners,  L. P.,
owner of the Omni,  a 575,000  square  foot Class A Office  Property  located in
Uniondale, New York (the "Mortgage Note Investments").  As of December 31, 1999,
the Company also owned approximately 346 acres of land in 16 separate parcels of
which the Company can develop  approximately  1.9 million  square feet of office
space and approximately 300,000 square feet of industrial space. During 1998 and
1999,  the Company made  investments  in joint  ventures with Reckson  Strategic
Venture Partners, LLC ("RSVP"), a venture capital fund created as a research and
development vehicle for the Company to invest in alternative real estate sectors
(see  Corporate  Strategies  and  Growth  Opportunities).  RSVP is managed by an
affiliate of Reckson Service Industries,  Inc. currently D/B/A FrontLine Capital
Group  ("FrontLine").   The  Company  has  committed  up  to  $100  million  for
investments  in the form of either (i) joint ventures with RSVP or (ii) loans to
FrontLine for FrontLine's  investment in RSVP. To date, the Company has invested
$24.8 million in RSVP joint venture  investments.  During 1998, the Company spun
off FrontLine,  its commercial  service  business,  to its  shareholders and has
provided  FrontLine with a $100 million line of credit. As of December 31, 1999,
$79.5 million had been drawn and is outstanding on this line.

     The Office  Properties are Class A office  buildings and are  well-located,
well-maintained and professionally  managed.  In addition,  these properties are
modern with high finishes or have been modernized to  successfully  compete with
newer  buildings  and  achieve  among the  highest  rent,  occupancy  and tenant
retention rates within their markets.  The majority of the Office Properties are
located in twelve  planned  office parks and are tenanted by a diverse  industry
group of national  firms which  include  consumer  products,  telecommunication,
health care,  insurance and professional  service firms such as accounting firms
and securities  brokerage  houses.  The  Industrial  Properties are utilized for
distribution,  warehousing,  research and development and light  manufacturing /
assembly  activities and are located primarily in three planned industrial parks
developed by Reckson.

     All  of the  Company's  interests  in the  Properties,  the  Mortgage  Note
Investments  and  land  are  held  directly  or  indirectly  by,  and all of its
operations are conducted through, the Operating Partnership.  Reckson Associates
Realty Corp. controls the Operating  Partnership as the sole general partner and
as of December 31, 1999, owned approximately 87% of the Operating  Partnership's
outstanding  common units of limited  partnership  ("Units")  and Class B common
units of limited partnership interest.

                                       I-1

     The  Company  seeks  to  maintain   cash   reserves  for  normal   repairs,
replacements,   improvements,  working  capital  and  other  contingencies.  The
Operating  Partnership has established an unsecured credit facility (the "Credit
Facility") with a maximum  borrowing amount of $500 million  scheduled to mature
on July 23, 2001 and an  unsecured  term loan ("the "Term  Loan") with a maximum
borrowing  capacity of $75 million  scheduled  to mature on June 16,  2001.  The
Credit Facility and the Term Loan require the Company to comply with a number of
financial and other covenants on an ongoing basis.

     During 1999, the Operating Partnership issued $300 million of five year and
ten year senior  unsecured  notes and the Company  issued six million  shares of
Series B Convertible  Cumulative  Preferred  Stock for proceeds of $150 million.
The  combined net proceeds of  approximately  $447.4  million were used to repay
outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility and as partial consideration in
the  acquisition  of the first mortgage note secured by 919 Third Avenue located
in New York City.

     On May 24, 1999, in conjunction  with the Tower portfolio  acquisition (see
Corporate  Strategies  and  Growth  Opportunities  below),  the  Company  issued
11,694,567  shares of Class B  Exchangeable  Common  Stock,  par value  $.01 per
share,  of the  Company  (the  "Class B Common  Stock")  which  were  valued for
purposes under  generally  accepted  accounting  principals  ("GAAP") at $26 per
share for total consideration of approximately $304.1 million.

     There are numerous  commercial  properties that compete with the Company in
attracting  tenants and numerous  companies  that compete in selecting  land for
development and properties for acquisition.

     The  Company's  executive  offices  are  located at 225  Broadhollow  Road,
Melville,  New York 11747 and its  telephone  number at that  location  is (631)
694-6900. At December 31, 1999, the Company had approximately 300 employees.

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

Acquisition Activity.

Set  forth  below is a brief  description  of the  Company's  major  acquisition
activity during 1999.

     On May 24, 1999,  the Tower  portfolio  acquisition  was completed with the
Company  obtaining  title to all of Tower's real estate  assets.  Simultaneously
with the closing of the Tower portfolio acquisition the Company arranged for the
sale of four of Tower's  Class B New York City office  properties.  In addition,
the Company sold,  with the exception of one Class A, 357,000 square foot office
building located in Orlando,  Florida,  all of the assets located outside of the
Tri-State Area. In addition to the aforementioned property in Orlando,  Florida,
the Company's  remaining  assets from the Tower  portfolio  acquisition  include
three Class A New York City Office  Properties  encompassing  approximately  1.6
million square feet and one Class A Office Property on Long Island  encompassing
approximately 101,000 square feet.

     On June 15, 1999,  the Company  acquired the first mortgage note secured by
919 Third Avenue,  a 47 story,  1.4 million square foot Class A Office  Property
located in New York City for  approximately  $277.5 million.  The first mortgage
note  entitles  the  Company  to all the net cash  flow of the  property  and to
substantial rights regarding the operations of the property.

     In  addition,   as  of  December   31,  1999,   the  Company  has  invested
approximately  $15.7 million in certain  mortgage  indebtedness  encumbering one
Class A Office  Property  encompassing  approximately  177,000  square  feet and
approximately  472 acres of land  located in New  Jersey.  The  Company has also
loaned  approximately  $17 million to its minority  partner in Omni, its 575,000
square foot flagship Long Island Office Property,  and effectively increased its
economic interest in the property owning partnership.

     On January 13, 2000,  the Company  acquired 1350 Avenue of the Americas,  a
540,000  square foot,  35 story,  Class A office  property,  located in New York
City, for a purchase price of approximately $126.5 million. This acquisition was
financed  through a $70  million  secured  debt  financing  and a draw under the
Company's Credit Facility.

                                       I-2

<PAGE>

     On January 6, 1998,  the Company made an initial  investment  in the Morris
Companies,  a New Jersey developer and owner of "Big Box" warehouse  facilities.
In connection  with the  transaction the Morris  Companies  contributed  100% of
their  interests in certain  industrial  properties to Reckson Morris  Operating
Partnership, L.P. ("RMI") in exchange for operating partnership units in RMI.

     During 1999, the Company  executed a contract for the sale, which will take
place in three stages,  of its interest in RMI which consisted of 28 properties,
comprising  approximately  6.1  million  square  feet and  three  other  big box
Industrial  Properties.  The  combined  total sale price is  approximately  $298
million  (approximately  $42 million of which is payable to the Morris Companies
and its affiliates).

     During 1999, the first stage of the RMI closing occurred and stages two and
three are scheduled for April 2000.

Leasing Activity

     During the year ended  December  31, 1999,  the Company  leased 1.7 million

unsecured  revolving  Credit Facility from Chase  Manhattan Bank,  Union Bank of
Switzerland  and PNC Bank as  co-managers  of the Credit  Facility  bank  group.
Interest rates on borrowings  under the Credit  Facility are priced off of LIBOR

the Company's investment grade rating on its senior unsecured debt. On March 16,
1999, the Company  received its investment  grade rating on its senior unsecured
debt. As a result,  the pricing under the Credit  Facility was adjusted to LIBOR
plus 90 basis points.

     The  Company  utilizes  the  Credit  Facility   primarily  to  finance  the
acquisitions  of  Properties  and  other  real  estate  investments,   fund  its
development  activities and for working capital purposes.  At December 31, 1999,
the Company had  availability  under the Credit Facility to borrow an additional
$150.1 million (net of $52.3 million of outstanding undrawn letters of credit).

     As of December  31, 1999,  the Company had  outstanding  its 18 month,  $75
million  unsecured  Term Loan  from  Chase  Manhattan  Bank.  Interest  rates on
borrowings  under the Term Loan are priced  off of LIBOR plus 150 basis  points.
The Term Loan  replaced  the  Company's  previous  term loan  which  matured  on
December 17, 1999.

Other Financing Activities

     On March 26, 1999,  the Operating  Partnership  issued $100 million of 7.4%
senior  unsecured  notes due March 15,  2004 and $200  million  of 7.75%  senior
unsecured notes due March 15, 2009. Net proceeds of approximately $297.4 million
were used to repay outstanding borrowings under the Company's Credit Facility.

                                       I-3

     On May 24, 1999, in conjunction with the Tower portfolio  acquisition,  the
Company  obtained  a  $130  million   unsecured  bridge  facility  (The  "Bridge
Facility") from USB AG.  Interest rates on borrowings  under the Bridge Facility
were priced off of LIBOR plus  approximately 214 basis points. On July 23, 1999,
the Bridge Facility was repaid through a long term fixed rate secured  borrowing
and an advance under the Credit  Facility.  The new mortgage note, in the amount
of $125 million,  is secured by two Office Properties with an aggregate carrying
value of  approximately  $261  million,  is for a term of ten  years  and  bears
interest at the rate of 7.73% per annum.

Stock Offerings

     On May 24, 1999, in conjunction with the Tower portfolio  acquisition,  the
Company issued  11,694,567  shares of Class B Common Stock which were valued for
GAAP purposes at $26 per share for total  consideration of approximately  $304.1
million.  The shares of Class B Common  Stock are entitled to receive an initial
annual  dividend of $2.24 per share,  which  dividend  is subject to  adjustment
annually  commencing  on July 1, 2000.  The  shares of Class B Common  Stock are
exchangeable  at any time, at the option of the holder,  into an equal number of
shares of common  stock,  par value $.01 per share,  of the  Company  subject to
customary antidilution  adjustments.  The Company, at its option, may redeem any
or all of the Class B Common  Stock in exchange for an equal number of shares of

Company's  common stock at a price of $26.05 per share.  Proceeds from the stock
offering  were used as partial  consideration  in the  acquisition  of the first

CORPORATE STRATEGIES AND GROWTH OPPORTUNITIES

     The Company's primary business objectives are to maximize current return to
stockholders  through  increases  in  distributable  cash  flow per share and to
increase stockholders'  long-term total return through the appreciation in value
of its common stock. The Company plans to achieve these objectives by continuing
Reckson's  corporate  strategies and  capitalizing  on the internal and external
growth opportunities as described below.

     Corporate  Strategies.  Management  believes  that  throughout  its 40-year
operating history, Reckson has created value in its properties through a variety
of market cycles by implementing the operating strategies described below. These
operating  strategies  include the  implementation  of: (i) a  multidisciplinary
leasing approach that involves  architectural design and construction  personnel
as well as leasing  professionals,  (ii) innovative  property marketing programs
such as the broker frequent  leasing points program which was established by the
Company to enhance  relationships with the brokerage  community and which allows
brokers to accumulate points for leasing space in the Company's  portfolio which
can be redeemed for  luxurious  prizes,  (iii) a  comprehensive  tenant  service
program and property  amenities  designed to maximize  tenant  satisfaction  and
retention,  (iv) cost  control  management  and systems  that take  advantage of
economies  of  scale  that  arise  from  the  Company's   market   position  and
efficiencies attributable to the state-of-the-art energy control systems at many
of the Office Properties and (v) an acquisition and development strategy that is
continuously  adjusted in light of anticipated  changes in market conditions and
that seeks to capitalize on management's  multidisciplinary expertise and market
knowledge to modify,  upgrade and  reposition a property in its  marketplace  in
order to maximize value.

     The Company also intends to adhere to a policy of  maintaining a debt ratio
(defined  as the total  debt of the  Company as a  percentage  of the sum of the
Company's total debt and the market value of its equity) of less than 50%. As of
December  31, 1999,  the  Company's  debt ratio was  approximately  42.3%.  This
calculation  is net of  minority  partners'  proportionate  share  of  debt  and
including the Company's  share of  unconsolidated  joint venture debt. This debt
ratio is intended to provide the Company with  financial  flexibility  to select
the optimal  source of capital  (whether  debt or equity)  with which to finance
external growth.

     Growth  Opportunities.  The Company intends to achieve its primary business
objectives  by applying its  corporate  strategies  to the internal and external
growth opportunities described below.

     Internal  Growth.  To the extent Long Island,  Westchester,  New Jersey and
Southern Connecticut suburban office and industrial markets continue to improve,
management  believes  the  Company is well  positioned  to benefit  from  rental
revenue  growth  through:  (i)  contractual  annual  compounding  4%  Base  Rent
increases  (defined as fixed gross  rental  amounts  that  excludes  payments on
account of real estate tax,  operating  expense  escalations and base electrical
charges) on approximately 85% of existing leases at the Long Island  Properties,
(ii)  periodic  contractual  increases  in Base Rent on  existing  leases at the
Westchester  Properties,  the New Jersey Properties and the Southern Connecticut
Properties  and (iii) the potential for increases to Base Rents as leases expire
as a result of continued  tightening of the office and  industrial  markets with
limited new supply.

     In connection with the Company's  acquisition and merger  transaction  with
Tower Realty Trust, Inc. (see External Growth below) the Company entered the New
York City office market.  The Manhattan office market is currently  experiencing
favorable  supply and demand  characteristics  similar to those currently in the
Company's  suburban  markets and also is  characterized  by its similar  lack of
available  land supply and other  barriers to entry that limit our  competition.
The Tower  portfolio  includes  Manhattan  office  buildings  that offer similar
potential for increase in Base Rents as described in (iii) above.

     External Growth. The Company seeks to acquire multi-tenant suburban Class A
office and  industrial  properties  located in the  Tri-State  Area.  Management
believes that the Tri-State Area presents  opportunities to acquire or invest in
properties  at  attractive  yields.  The Company  believes  that its (i) capital
structure,  in particular its Credit Facility  providing for a maximum borrowing
amount of up to $500  million,  (ii)  ability to acquire a property for Units of
the Operating  Partnership  and thereby  defer the seller's  income tax on gain,
(iii)  operating   economies  of  scale,  (iv)   relationships   with  financial
institutions and private real estate owners, (v) fully integrated  operations in
its five existing  divisions and (vi) its dominant position and franchise in the
submarkets in which it owns  properties  will enhance the  Company's  ability to
identify and capitalize on acquisition  opportunities.  The Company also intends
to selectively develop new Class A suburban office and industrial properties and
to continue to redevelop  existing  Office and  Industrial  Properties  as these
opportunities  arise.  In the near  future,  the Company  will  concentrate  its
development  activities on industrial and Class A office  properties  within the
Tri-State Area. The Company's expansion into the Manhattan office market and the
opening of its New York City division provides it with additional  opportunities
to acquire an interest in  properties  at  attractive  yields.  The Company also
believes  that the addition of its New York City  division  provides  additional
leasing and operational  facilities and enhances its overall  franchise value by
being  the only  real  estate  operating  company  in the  Tri-State  Area  with
significant presence in both Manhattan and each of the surrounding sub-markets.

     During 1997, the Company  formed  FrontLine and RSVP. On June 11, 1998, the
Operating Partnership  distributed its 95% common stock interest in FrontLine of
approximately  $3 million to its owners,  including the Company which,  in turn,
distributed   the  common  stock  of  FrontLine   received  from  the  Operating
Partnership to its stockholders.  Additionally,  during June 1998, the Operating
Partnership  established  a  credit  facility  with  FrontLine  (the  "FrontLine
Facility")  in the  amount  of  $100  million  for  FrontLine's  e-commerce  and
e-services  operations and other general corporate purposes.  As of December 31,
1999,  the Company had advanced $79.5 million under the FrontLine  Facility.  In
addition,  the Operating  Partnership has approved the funding of investments of
up  to  $100  million  with  or  in  RSVP  (the  "RSVP   Commitment"),   through
RSVP-controlled  joint venture  REIT-qualified  investments  or advances made to
FrontLine  under terms  similar to the  FrontLine  Facility.  As of December 31,
1999, approximately $67.2 million had been invested through the RSVP Commitment,
of which $24.8 million represents  RSVP-controlled joint venture  REIT-qualified
investments  and $42.4 million  represents  advances to FrontLine under the RSVP
Commitment.

                                       I-5

<PAGE>

     FrontLine  identifies,  acquires  interests  in and  develops  a network of
business to business  e-commerce and e-services  companies that service small to
medium sized  enterprises,  independent  professionals and entrepreneurs and the
mobile workforce of larger companies. FrontLine serves as the managing member of
RSVP.  RSVP was formed to provide the Company  with a research  and  development
vehicle to invest in alternative real estate sectors.  RSVP invests primarily in
real estate and real estate related operating companies generally outside of the
Company's core office and industrial  focus.  RSVP's strategy is to identify and
acquire  interests in established  entrepreneurial  enterprises with experienced
management teams in market sectors which are in the early stages of their growth
cycle or offer unique  circumstances  for  attractive  investments  as well as a
platform for future growth.

     On August 27, 1998 the Company  announced  the formation of a joint venture
with RSVP and the Dominion Group, an  Oklahoma-based,  privately-owned  group of
companies  that  focuses  on  the  development,  acquisition  and  ownership  of
government  occupied  office  buildings  and  correctional  facilities.  The new
venture,  Dominion Properties LLC (the "Dominion Venture"), is owned by Dominion
Venture Group LLC, and by a subsidiary of the Company.  The Dominion  Venture is
primarily  engaged in acquiring,  developing  and/or owning  government-occupied
office  buildings  and privately  operated  correctional  facilities.  Under the
Dominion Venture's  operating  agreement,  RSVP is to invest up to $100 million,
some of which may be invested by the Company (the "RSVP  Capital").  The initial
contribution   of  RSVP   Capital  was   approximately   $39  million  of  which
approximately  $10.1  million was invested by a subsidiary  of the Company.  The
Company's  investment was funded through the RSVP Commitment.  In addition,  the
Company  advanced  approximately  $2.9  million to  FrontLine  through  the RSVP
Commitment  for an investment in RSVP which was then invested on a joint venture
basis with the Dominion Group in certain service business  activities related to
the real estate  activities.  As of December 31, 1999,  the Company had invested
approximately  $17.6 million in the Dominion Venture which had investments in 13
government office buildings and three correctional facilities.

     In 1999,  the  Company  invested  approximately  $7.2  million,  through  a
subsidiary,  in RAP Student  Housing  Properties,  LLC ("RAP -- SHP"), a company
that engages primarily in the acquisition and development of off-campus  student
housing  projects.   The  Company's  investment  was  funded  through  the  RSVP
Commitment.  In addition, the Company has advanced approximately $3.2 million to
FrontLine through the RSVP Commitment for an additional investment in RSVP which
was invested in certain service business  activities related to student housing.
As of December 31, 1999, RAP -- SHP had investments in four  off-campus  student
housing projects.

     In July 1998,  the Company formed a joint  venture,  Metropolitan  Partners
LLC, a Delaware limited liability company  ("Metropolitan"),  with Crescent Real
Estate Equities Company, a Texas real estate investment trust.

     On December 8, 1998, the Company, Metropolitan and Tower Realty Trust, Inc.
("Tower")  executed a merger agreement and on May 24, 1999 Tower was merged (the
"Merger")   into   Metropolitan,   with   Metropolitan   surviving  the  Merger.
Concurrently  with the Merger,  Tower  Realty  Operating  Partnership,  L.P. was
merged with and into a subsidiary of Metropolitan.  The consideration  issued in
the mergers was  comprised of (i) 25% cash  (approximately  $107.2  million) and
(ii) 75% of  shares  of Class B  Common  Stock  (valued  for  GAAP  purposes  at
approximately $304.1 million).

     The  Company  controls  Metropolitan  and owns 100% of the  common  equity;
Crescent  owns  a  $85  million   preferred  equity  interest  in  Metropolitan.
Crescent's  interest  accrues  distributions  at a rate of 7.5% per  annum for a
two-year  period  (May 24,  1999  through  May 24,  2001) and may be redeemed by
Metropolitan  at any time  during that  period for $85  million,  plus an amount
sufficient to provide a 9.5% internal rate of return.  If Metropolitan  does not
redeem the  preferred  interest,  upon the  expiration  of the two-year  period,
Crescent  must  convert its $85  million  preferred  interest  into either (i) a
common  membership  interest in  Metropolitan  or (ii)  shares of the  Company's
common stock at a conversion price of $24.61 per share.

     The  Tower  portfolio  acquired  in the  Merger  consists  of three  Office
Properties comprising  approximately 1.6 million square feet located in New York
City, one Office Property  located on Long Island and certain office  properties
and other real estate assets located outside the Tri-State Area.

                                       I-6

<PAGE>

     Prior to the closing of the Merger,  the Company  arranged  for the sale of
four of  Tower's  Class B New York  City  properties,  comprising  approximately
701,000 square feet for approximately  $84.5 million.  Subsequent to the closing
of the Merger, the Company has sold a real estate joint venture interest and all
of the  property  located  outside  the  Tri-State  Area  other  than one office
property  located in Orlando,  Florida for  approximately  $171.1  million.  The
combined  consideration  consisted of  approximately  $143.8 million in cash and
approximately  $27.3  million of debt relief.  Net cash  proceeds from the sales
were used primarily to repay borrowings  under the Credit Facility.  As a result
of incurring  certain sales and closing costs in connection with the sale of the
assets  located  outside the Tri-State  Area, the Company has incurred a loss of
approximately  $4.4  million  which has been  included  in gain on sales of real
estate on the accompanying consolidated statements of income.

ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS

     Under various Federal, state and local laws, ordinances and regulations, an
owner of real  estate  is liable  for the costs of  removal  or  remediation  of
certain  hazardous or toxic substances on or in such property.  These laws often
impose  such  liability  without  regard to  whether  the owner  knew of, or was
responsible for, the presence of such hazardous or toxic substances. The cost of
any required  remediation and the owner's liability therefore as to any property
is generally not limited under such enactments and could exceed the value of the
property  and/or  the  aggregate  assets  of the  owner.  The  presence  of such
substances, or the failure to properly remediate such substances,  may adversely
affect the owner's ability to sell or rent such property or to borrow using such
property as  collateral.  Persons who arrange for the  disposal or  treatment of
hazardous  or toxic  substances  may also be liable  for the costs of removal or
remediation of such substances at a disposal or treatment  facility,  whether or
not such  facility is owned or operated by such  person.  Certain  environmental
laws govern the removal,  encapsulation  or disturbance  of  asbestos-containing
materials ("ACMs") when such materials are in poor condition, or in the event of
renovation or  demolition.  Such laws impose  liability for release of ACMs into
the air and third  parties may seek  recovery  from owners or  operators of real
properties  for personal  injury  associated  with ACMs. In connection  with the
ownership  (direct or indirect),  operation,  management and development of real
properties,  the  Company  may be  considered  an  owner  or  operator  of  such
properties  or as having  arranged for the disposal or treatment of hazardous or
toxic substances and,  therefore,  potentially liable for removal or remediation
costs, as well as certain other related costs,  including governmental fines and
injuries to persons and property.

     All of the Office Properties and all of the Industrial Properties have been
subjected to a Phase I or similar environmental audit after April 1, 1994 (which
involved  general  inspections  without soil sampling,  ground water analysis or
radon testing and, for the  Properties  constructed  in 1978 or earlier,  survey
inspections  to ascertain  the  existence of ACMs were  conducted)  completed by
independent  environmental  consultant  companies  (except for 35 Pinelawn  Road
which was  originally  developed by Reckson and  subjected to a Phase 1 in April
1992). These environmental audits have not revealed any environmental  liability
that would have a material adverse effect on the Company's business.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES

GENERAL

     As of December 31,  1999,  the Company  owned and  operated 189  Properties
(including  two  joint  venture  office  properties  but  excluding  the RSVP --
controlled joint ventures) in the Tri-State Area encompassing approximately 21.4
million square feet.  These properties  consist of 77 Class A Office  Properties
encompassing  approximately  13.1 million  rentable  square feet, 110 Industrial
Properties  encompassing  approximately 8.3 million rentable square feet and two
free-standing  10,000  square foot retail  properties.  The Company  also owns a
357,000 square foot Class A office  building in Orlando,  Florida.  The rentable
square feet of each property has been determined for these purposes based on the
aggregate  leased square footage  specified in currently  effective  leases and,
with respect to vacant space, management's estimate. In addition, as of December
31,  1999,  the  Company  owned  approximately  346 acres of land in 16 separate
parcels of which the Company can develop  approximately  1.9 million square feet
of office space and approximately 300,000 square feet of industrial space.

     Reckson has  historically  emphasized the  development  and  acquisition of
properties  that  are  part of large  scale  office  and  industrial  parks  and
approximately  54%  of  the  Office  Properties  and  approximately  46%  of the
Industrial  Properties  are located in such parks  (measured by rentable  square
footage).  The Company  believes that owning  properties  in planned  office and
industrial parks provides certain strategic advantages, including the following:
(i)  certain  tenants  prefer  being  located in a park with other high  quality
companies to enhance their  corporate  image,  (ii) parks afford tenants certain
aesthetic  amenities  such as a  common  landscaping  plan,  standardization  of
signage and common dining and recreational facilities,  (iii) tenants may expand
(or contract) their business within a park, enabling them to centralize business
functions and (iv) a park provides  tenants with access to other tenants and may
facilitate business relationships between tenants.

     Also,  as of December  31,  1999,  the Company had  invested  approximately
$298.6 million in certain mortgage indebtedness encumbering three Class A Office
Properties encompassing  approximately 1.6 million square feet and approximately
472 acres of land  located in New Jersey.  In  addition,  the Company has loaned
approximately  $17 million to its minority  partner in Omni,  its flagship  Long
Island Office  Property and effectively  increased its economic  interest in the
property owning partnership.

     Set  forth  below is a  summary  of  certain  information  relating  to the
Properties,  categorized by Office and Industrial Properties, as of December 31,
1999.

OFFICE PROPERTIES

General

     As of  December  31,  1999,  the  Company  owned or had an  interest  in 77
Tri-State Area Class A Office Properties encompassing approximately 13.1 million
rentable  square feet.  As of December 31, 1999,  these Office  Properties  were
approximately 95% leased to approximately 1,000 tenants.

     The Office  Properties are Class A office  buildings and are  well-located,
well-maintained and professionally  managed.  In addition,  these properties are
modern with high  finishes and achieve  among the highest  rent,  occupancy  and
tenant retention rates within their  sub-markets.  Forty-nine of the 73 suburban
Office  Properties are located in the following twelve planned office parks: the
North Shore Atrium,  the Huntington  Melville  Corporate Center, the Nassau West
Corporate Center,  the Tarrytown  Corporate  Center,  the Landmark Square Office
Complex,  the  Executive  Hill Office  Park,  the Reckson  Executive  Park,  the
University  Square  Office  Complex,  the Summit at Valhalla,  the Mt.  Pleasant
Corporate Center,  the Stamford Towers Office Center, and the Short Hills Office
Complex.  The  buildings  in these  office parks offer a full array of amenities
including health clubs,  racquetball  courts, sun decks,  restaurants,  computer
controlled HVAC access systems and conference centers.  Management believes that
the  location,  quality of  construction  and amenities as well as the Company's
reputation for providing a high level of tenant service have enabled the Company
to attract  and retain a  national  tenant  base.  The  office  tenants  include
national  service  companies,  such  as  telecommunications  firms,  "Big  Five"
accounting firms,  securities  brokerage houses,  insurance companies and health
care providers.

                                       I-8

<PAGE>

     The Office Properties are leased to both national and local tenants. Leases
on the Office  Properties  are typically  written for terms ranging from five to
ten years and require:  (i) payment of a fixed gross rental amount that excludes
payments on account of real estate tax,  operating expense  escalations and base
electrical  charges ("Base  Rent"),  (ii) payment of a base  electrical  charge,
(iii) payment of real estate tax  escalations  over a base year, (iv) payment of
compounded  annual  increases to Base Rent and/or  payment of operating  expense
escalations over a base year, (v) payment of overtime HVAC and electric and (vi)
payment of electric  escalations over a base year. In virtually all leases,  the
landlord is responsible for structural  repairs.  Renewal  provisions  typically
provide for renewal rates at market rates or a percentage thereof, provided that
such rates are not less than the most recent renewal rates.

     The following table sets forth certain  information as of December 31, 1999
for each of the Office Properties.

INDUSTRIAL PROPERTIES

General.

     As of  December  31,  1999,  the  Company  owned or had an  interest in 110
Industrial  Properties that encompass  approximately 8.3 million rentable square
feet. As of December 31, 1999, the Industrial  Properties were approximately 98%
leased to approximately 250 tenants. Many of the Industrial Properties have been
constructed  with high ceiling  heights  (i.e.,  above 18 feet),  upscale office
building  facades,  parking in excess of zoning  requirements,  drive-in  and/or
loading dock  facilities  and other  features which permit them to be leased for
industrial and/or office purposes.

     The  Industrial  Properties  are leased to both national and local tenants.
These tenants utilize the Industrial  Properties for distribution,  warehousing,
research and development and light manufacturing/assembly  activities. Leases on
the Industrial  Properties are typically written for terms ranging from three to
seven  years and  require:  (i)  payment of a Base Rent,  (ii)  payments of real
estate tax  escalations  over a base year,  (iii) payments of compounded  annual
increases  to Base  Rent  and  (iv)  reimbursement  of all  operating  expenses.
Electric  costs are borne and paid  directly by the tenant.  Certain  leases are
"triple  net"  (i.e.,  the tenant is  required to pay in addition to annual Base
Rent, all operating  expenses and real estate  taxes).  In virtually all leases,
the landlord is responsible for structural repairs. Renewal provisions typically
provide for renewal rents at market rates, provided that such rates are not less
than the most recent rental rates.

     Approximately 71% of the Industrial  Properties  measured by square footage
are located on Long Island.  Sixty five percent of these  properties as measured
by square footage were located in the following three Industrial Parks developed
by Reckson: (i) Vanderbilt Industrial Park, (ii) Airport International Plaza and
(iii) County Line Industrial Center.

     In addition to the Industrial  Properties on Long Island,  the Company owns
15  Industrial  Properties  in the  other  suburban  markets.  These  properties
encompass  approximately  2.4  million  square feet and were  approximately  97%
leased (excluding properties under redevelopment) as of December 31, 1999.

     The following table sets forth certain  information as of December 31, 1999
for each of the Industrial Properties.

(1) Calculated as the difference from the lowest beam to floor.

(2) Represents  Base Rent of signed  leases at December  31, 1999  adjusted  for
    scheduled  contractual  increases  during the 12 months ending  December 31,
    2000.  Total Base Rent for these  purposes  reflects the effect of any lease
    expirations  that occur during the 12 month period ending December 31, 2000.
    Amounts  included in rental  revenue for financial  reporting  purposes have
    been  determined  on a  straight-line  basis  rather  than on the  basis  of
    contractual rent as set forth in the foregoing table.

(3) Property under redevelopment.

(4) Percent leased excludes properties under redevelopment.

(5) A tenant has been  granted an option  exercisable  after  April 30, 1997 and
    prior to October 31, 2002 to purchase this property for $600,000.

(6) The actual fee interest in 19 Nicholas  Drive is currently  held by the Town
    of Brookhaven  Industrial  Development  Agency. The Company may acquire such
    fee  interest  by  making  a  nominal  payment  to the  Town  of  Brookhaven
    Industrial Development Agency.

(7) The Company has entered  into a 20 year lease  agreement in which it has the
    right to sublease the premises.

RETAIL PROPERTIES

     As of December 31, 1999, the Company owned two free-standing  10,000 square
foot retail properties  located in Great Neck and Huntington,  New York and were
100% leased as of December 31, 1999.

DEVELOPMENTS IN PROGRESS

     As of  December  31,  1999,  the Company had  invested  approximately  $130
million in developments  in progress.  This amount  includes  approximately  $64
million relating to existing  buildings  encompassing  approximately 1.1 million
square feet. The Company  estimates that if these projects were to be completed,
total  additional  development  costs would be approximately  $25.3 million.  In
addition,  the Company has also invested  approximately  $66 million relating to
approximately  346 acres of land which it can develop  approximately 2.2 million
square feet. The Company  estimates that if these projects were to be completed,
total additional development costs would be approximately $270 million.

THE OPTION PROPERTIES

     In  connection  with the IPO,  the Company was granted a ten year option to
acquire ten properties (the "Option  Properties")  which were not contributed to
the  Operating  Partnership  and are either owned by Reckson or in which Reckson
owns a non controlling minority interest.

     As of  December  31,  1999,  the Company  has  acquired  four of the Option
Properties for an aggregate  purchase price of approximately $35 million and the
issuance of  approximately  475,000 Units. In addition,  during 1998, one of the
Option Properties was sold by Reckson to a third party.

     The remaining Option Properties  consist of three Class A office properties
encompassing  approximately  311,000 square feet and two  industrial  properties
encompassing approximately 69,000 square feet.

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

     The following  discussion should be read in conjunction with the historical
financial  statements of Reckson  Associates  Realty Corp.  (the  "Company") and
related notes.

     The  Company   considers   certain   statements  set  forth  herein  to  be
forward-looking  statements  within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
as amended,  with  respect to the  Company's  expectations  for future  periods.
Certain forward-looking statements,  including,  without limitation,  statements
relating  to the  timing and  success  of  acquisitions,  the  financing  of the
Company's operations, the ability to lease vacant space and the ability to renew
or relet space under expiring leases,  involve certain risks and  uncertainties.
Although  the  Company  believes  that  the   expectations   reflected  in  such
forward-looking  statements  are based on  reasonable  assumptions,  the  actual
results  may  differ  materially  from  those set  forth in the  forward-looking
statements  and the Company can give no assurance that its  expectation  will be
achieved.  Certain factors that might cause the results of the Company to differ
materially  from those  indicated by such  forward-looking  statements  include,
among other factors,  general economic conditions,  general real estate industry
risks,  tenant default and  bankruptcies,  loss of major tenants,  the impact of
competition and acquisition, redevelopment and development risks, the ability to
finance business opportunities and local real estate risks such as an oversupply
of space or a reduction in demand for real estate in the  Company's  real estate
markets. Consequently, such forward-looking statements should be regarded solely
as  reflections of the Company's  current  operating and  development  plans and
estimates.  These plans and estimates are subject to revisions from time to time
as additional information becomes available,  and actual results may differ from
those indicated in the referenced statements.

OVERVIEW AND BACKGROUND

     The Reckson  Group,  the  predecessor  to the  Company,  was engaged in the
ownership,  management,  operation,  leasing and  development of commercial real
estate properties,  principally office and industrial buildings,  and also owned
certain  undeveloped  land located  primarily on Long Island,  New York. In June
1995, the Company completed an Initial Public Offering (the "IPO"), succeeded to
the Reckson Group's real estate business and commenced operations.

     The Company is a self-administered  and self managed real estate investment
trust ("REIT") specializing in the acquisition,  leasing, financing,  management
and  development  of office and  industrial  properties.  The  Company's  growth
strategy  is  focused  on the real  estate  markets  in and  around the New York
tri-state area (the "Tri-State Area").

     The Company owns all of the interests in its real estate properties through
Reckson Operating Partnership,  L.P. (the "Operating Partnership").  At December
31, 1999,  the Company  owned and operated 189  properties  (the  "Properties"),
(including two joint venture properties) encompassing approximately 21.4 million
square feet in the Tri-State Area. The Properties  include 77 office  properties
(the "Office Properties") containing approximately 13.1 million square feet, 110
industrial properties (the "Industrial Properties") containing approximately 8.3
million square feet and two retail properties  containing  approximately  20,000
square feet.  The Company  also owns and  operates a 357,000  square foot office
property   located  in  Orlando   Florida.   In  addition,   the  Company  owned
approximately  346 acres of land in 16 separate parcels of which the Company can
develop  approximately 1.9 million square feet of office space and approximately
300,000  square  feet  of  industrial  space.  The  Company  also  has  invested
approximately  $315.6 million in mortgage notes encumbering three Class A Office
Properties encompassing approximately 1.6 million square feet, approximately 472
acres of land  located  in New  Jersey  and in a note  receivable  secured  by a
partnership interest in Omni Partners, L.P., owner of the Omni, a 575,000 square
foot Class A Office Property located in Uniondale, New York.

     On January 6, 1998,  the Company made its initial  investment in the Morris
Companies,  a New Jersey developer and owner of "Big Box" warehouse  facilities.
In connection  with the  transaction the Morris  Companies  contributed  100% of
their  interests in certain  industrial  properties to Reckson Morris  Operating
Partnership, L. P. ("RMI") in exchange for operating partnership units in RMI.

                                      II-3

<PAGE>

     On August 9, 1999, the Company executed a contract for the sale, which will
take  place in three  stages,  of its  interest  in RMI  which  consisted  of 28
properties, comprising approximately 6.1 million square feet and three other big
box industrial  properties to Keystone Property Trust ("KTR") (formerly American
Real Estate Investment Corporation).  In addition, the Company also entered into
a sale agreement with the Matrix  Development  Group  ("Matrix"),  relating to a
first mortgage note and certain  industrial  land holdings (the "Matrix  Sale").
The  combined  total sale price is $310  million  (approximately  $42 million of
which is payable to the Morris  Companies and its  affiliates) and consists of a
combination  of (i) cash,  (ii)  convertible  preferred and common stock of KTR,
(iii) preferred units of KTR's  operating  partnership,  (iv) relief of debt and
(v) a purchase money mortgage note secured by certain land that is being sold to
Matrix.

     During  September  1999,  the  Matrix  Sale and the first  stage of the RMI
closing  occurred  whereby  the  Company  sold its  interest in RMI to KTR for a
combined sales price of approximately  $164.7 million (net of minority partner's
interest).  The  combined  consideration  consisted of  approximately  (i) $86.3
million in cash,  (ii) $40 million of preferred stock of KTR, (iii) $1.5 million
in common stock of KTR, (iv) approximately  $26.7 million of debt relief and (v)
approximately  $10.2  million in  purchase  money  mortgages.  As a result,  the
Company incurred a gain of  approximately  $10.1 million which has been included
in gain on sales of real  estate on the  Company's  consolidated  statements  of
income.  Cash  proceeds from the sales were used  primarily to repay  borrowings
under the Credit Facility.

     The  second  and  third  stages  of the RMI  closing  are  scheduled  to be
completed  in  April  2000.  The  remaining  stages  consist  of six  industrial
buildings  and are  being  sold for total  consideration  of  approximately  $98
million.

     In July 1998,  the Company formed a joint  venture,  Metropolitan  Partners
LLC, a Delaware limited liability company  ("Metropolitan"),  with Crescent Real
Estate Equities Company, a Texas real estate investment trust.

     On December 8, 1998, the Company, Metropolitan and Tower Realty Trust, Inc.
("Tower")  executed a merger agreement and on May 24, 1999 Tower was merged (the
"Merger")   into   Metropolitan,   with   Metropolitan   surviving  the  Merger.
Concurrently  with the Merger,  Tower  Realty  Operating  Partnership,  L.P. was
merged with and into a subsidiary of Metropolitan.  The consideration  issued in
the mergers was  comprised of (i) 25% cash  (approximately  $107.2  million) and
(ii) 75% of shares of Class B  Exchangeable  Common  Stock,  par value  $.01 per
share,  of the  Company  (the  "Class B Common  Stock")  (valued  for  generally
accepted  accounting   principles  ("GAAP")  purposes  at  approximately  $304.1
million).

     The  Tower  portfolio  acquired  in the  Merger  consists  of three  Office
Properties comprising  approximately 1.6 million square feet located in New York
City, one Office Property  located on Long Island and certain office  properties
and other real estate assets located outside the Tri-State Area.

     Prior to the closing of the Merger,  the Company  arranged  for the sale of
four of  Tower's  Class B New York  City  properties,  comprising  approximately
701,000 square feet for approximately  $84.5 million.  Subsequent to the closing
of the Merger, the Company has sold a real estate joint venture interest and all
of the  property  located  outside  the  Tri-State  Area  other  than one office
property  located in Orlando,  Florida for  approximately  $171.1  million.  The
combined  consideration  consisted of  approximately  $143.8 million in cash and
approximately  $27.3  million of debt relief.  Net cash  proceeds from the sales
were used primarily to repay  borrowings  under the Company's  unsecured  credit
facility. As a result of incurring certain sales and closing costs in connection
with the sale of the assets located  outside the Tri-State Area, the Company has
incurred a loss of approximately $4.4 million which has been included in gain on
sales of real estate on the Company's consolidated statements of income.

     During 1997, the Company formed Reckson Service Industries,  Inc. currently
D/B/A  FrontLine  Capital  Group  ("FrontLine")  and Reckson  Strategic  Venture
Partners, LLC ("RSVP"). On June 11, 1998, the Operating Partnership  distributed
its 95% common stock  interest in FrontLine of  approximately  $3 million to its
owners,  including the Company which,  in turn,  distributed the common stock of
FrontLine   received  from  the  Operating   Partnership  to  its  stockholders.
Additionally, during June

                                      II-4

<PAGE>

1998,  the Operating  Partnership  established a credit  facility with FrontLine
(the  "FrontLine  Facility")  in the  amount  of $100  million  for  FrontLine's
e-commerce and e-services operations and other general corporate purposes. As of
December 31, 1999,  the Company had advanced  $79.5  million under the FrontLine
Facility.  In addition,  the Operating  Partnership  has approved the funding of
investments  of up to $100  million  with or in RSVP  (the  "RSVP  Commitment"),
through  RSVP-controlled  joint venture  REIT-qualified  investments or advances
made to FrontLine under terms similar to the FrontLine Facility.  As of December
31,  1999,  approximately  $67.2  million  had been  invested  through  the RSVP
Commitment,  of which $24.8  million  represents  RSVP-controlled  joint venture
REIT-qualified  investments and $42.4 million  represents  advances to FrontLine
under the RSVP Commitment.

     During  November  1999,  the Board of Directors of the Company  approved an
amendment to the FrontLine  Facility and the RSVP Commitment to permit FrontLine
to incur  secured  debt and to pay interest  thereon.  In  consideration  of the
amendments,  FrontLine has paid the Operating Partnership a fee of approximately
$3.6 million in the form of shares of FrontLine common stock.  Such fee is being
amortized in income over an estimated nine month benefit period.

     FrontLine  identifies,  acquires  interests  in and  develops  a network of
business to business  e-commerce and e-services  companies that service small to
medium sized  enterprises,  independent  professionals and entrepreneurs and the
mobile workforce of larger companies. FrontLine serves as the managing member of
RSVP.  RSVP was formed to provide the Company  with a research  and  development
vehicle to invest in alternative real estate sectors.  RSVP invests primarily in
real estate and real estate related operating companies generally outside of the
Company's core office and industrial  focus.  RSVP's strategy is to identify and
acquire  interests in established  entrepreneurial  enterprises with experienced
management teams in market sectors which are in the early stages of their growth
cycle or offer unique  circumstances  for  attractive  investments  as well as a
platform for future growth.

     The Operating  Partnership  and FrontLine have entered into an intercompany
agreement (the "Reckson Intercompany Agreement") to formalize their relationship
and to limit conflicts of interest.  Under the Reckson  Intercompany  Agreement,
FrontLine granted the Operating Partnership a right of first opportunity to make
any REIT -qualified investment that becomes available to FrontLine. In addition,
if a REIT-qualified  investment opportunity becomes available to an affiliate of
FrontLine,  including  RSVP, the Reckson  Intercompany  Agreement  requires such
affiliate to allow the Operating  Partnership to participate in such opportunity
to the extent of FrontLine's interest.

     Under the Reckson Intercompany Agreement, the Operating Partnership granted
FrontLine a right of first  opportunity  to provide  commercial  services to the
Operating  Partnership and its tenants.  FrontLine will provide  services to the
Operating  Partnership  at rates and on terms as  attractive  as either the best
available for comparable services in the market or those offered by FrontLine to
third parties. In addition, the Operating Partnership will give FrontLine access
to its tenants with respect to commercial  services that may be provided to such
tenants  and,  under the  Reckson  Intercompany  Agreement,  subject  to certain
conditions, the Operating Partnership granted FrontLine a right of first refusal
to become the lessee of any real property acquired by the Operating  Partnership
if the Operating  Partnership  determines  that,  consistent  with the Company's
status as a REIT, it is required to enter into a "master" lease agreement.

     On August 27, 1998 the Company  announced  the formation of a joint venture
with RSVP and the Dominion Group, an  Oklahoma-based,  privately-owned  group of
companies  that  focuses  on  the  development,  acquisition  and  ownership  of
government  occupied  office  buildings  and  correctional  facilities.  The new
venture,  Dominion Properties LLC (the "Dominion Venture"), is owned by Dominion
Venture Group LLC, and by a subsidiary of the Company.  The Dominion  Venture is
primarily  engaging in acquiring,  developing and/or owning  government-occupied
office  buildings  and privately  operated  correctional  facilities.  Under the
Dominion Venture's  operating  agreement,  RSVP is to invest up to $100 million,
some of which may be invested by the Company ( the "RSVP Capital").  The initial
contribution   of  RSVP   Capital  was   approximately   $39  million  of  which
approximately  $10.1  million was invested by a subsidiary  of the Company.  The
Company's  investment was funded through the RSVP Commitment.  In addition,  the
Company advanced approximately $2.9 million to FrontLine through the RSVP

                                      II-5

<PAGE>

Commitment  for an investment in RSVP which was then invested on a joint venture
basis with the Dominion Group in certain service business  activities related to
the real estate  activities.  As of December 31, 1999,  the Company had invested
approximately  $17.6 million in the Dominion Venture which had investments in 13
government office buildings and three correctional facilities.

     In  1999  the  Company  invested  approximately  $7.2  million,  through  a
subsidiary,  in RAP Student  Housing  Properties,  LLC ("RAP -- SHP"), a company
that engages primarily in the acquisition and development of off-campus  student
housing  projects.   The  Company's  investment  was  funded  through  the  RSVP
Commitment.  In addition, the Company has advanced approximately $3.2 million to
FrontLine through the RSVP Commitment for an additional investment in RSVP which
was invested in certain service business  activities related to student housing.
As of  December  31,  1999,  RAP -- SHP had  investments  in four  off -- campus
student housing projects.

     The  market  capitalization  of  the  Company  at  December  31,  1999  was
approximately $3 billion.  The Company's market  capitalization  is based on the
sum of (i) the market  value of the  Company's  common stock and common units of
limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership ("OP Units") (assuming
conversion)  of  $20.50  per  share/unit  (based  on the  closing  price  of the
Company's  common  stock on December  31,  1999),  (ii) the market  value of the
Company's  Class B Common Stock of $22.75 per share (based on the closing  price
of the  Company's  Class B  Common  Stock  on  December  31,  1999),  (iii)  the
liquidation  preference  value of the Company's  Series A preferred and Series B
preferred stock of $25 per share,  (iv) the liquidation  preference value of the
Operating   Partnership's   preferred  units,  (v)  the  contributed   value  of
Metropolitan's  preferred  interest  of $85  million  and (vi) the $1.3  billion
(including  its  share  of joint  venture  debt  and net of  minority  partners'
interests) of debt outstanding at December 31,1999.  As a result,  the Company's
total debt to total  market  capitalization  ratio at December  31, 1999 equaled
approximately 42.3%.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     The Company's total revenues increased by $136.8 million or 51.4% from 1998
to 1999 and  $113  million  or  73.7%  from  1997 to  1998.  Property  operating
revenues,  which include base rents and tenant  escalations  and  reimbursements
("Property  Operating  Revenues") increased by $116.7 million or 46.2% from 1998
to 1999 and  $108.7  million or 75.6% from 1997 to 1998.  The 1999  increase  in
Property Operating Revenues is substantially attributable to the Tower portfolio
acquisition on May 24, 1999. The revenue  generated from these assets  generated
approximately  $47.5  million of revenue  in 1999.  Additionally,  approximately
$29.1 million of revenue was generated  from the  Company's  acquisition  of the
first  mortgage note secured by 919 Third Avenue.  Property  Operating  Revenues
were also positively  effected by  approximately  $9.9 million from increases in
occupancies  and rental rates in our "same store"  properties and  approximately
$27.2 million in additional  revenue  generated from properties  acquired during
1998 and new  development  activity.  The  remaining  balance of the increase in
total  revenues in 1999 is primarily  attributable  to the gain on sales of real
estate of $10.1 million and  approximately  $8.7 million in other income related
to interest earned on advances made to FrontLine through the FrontLine  Facility
and to RSVP through the RSVP Commitment. The 1998 increase in Property Operating
Revenues is comprised of $2.1 million  attributable to increases in rental rates
and changes in occupancies  and $106.6 million  attributable  to acquisitions of
properties.  The remaining  balance of the increase in total revenues in 1998 is
primarily  attributable  to  increases  in  interest  income  on  the  Company's
investments  in mortgage  notes and notes  receivable  and income related to the
Company's  interest in its service  companies.  The Company's base rent reflects
the positive  impact of the  straight-line  rent adjustment of $ 10.7 million in
1999, $7.7 million in 1998 and $4.5 million in 1997.

     Property operating expenses,  real estate taxes and ground rents ("Property
Expenses")  increased  by $41.7  million or 49.5% from 1998 to 1999 and by $34.0
million or 67.5% from 1997 to 1998.  These  increases  are  primarily due to the
acquisition of the properties included in the Tower portfolio acquisition on May
24, 1999 and the  acquisition  of the first  mortgage  note secured by 919 Third
Avenue.  Gross operating  margins (defined as Property  Operating  Revenues less
Property  Expenses,  taken as a percentage of Property  Operating  Revenues) for
1999,  1998 and 1997 were  65.9%,  66.6% and  65.0%,  respectively.  The  slight
decrease in the gross operating margin percentage from 1998 to 1999 resulted

                                      II-6

<PAGE>

from a larger  proportionate share of gross operating margin derived from office
properties, which has a lower gross margin percentage, in 1999 compared to 1998.
The higher proportionate share of the gross operating margin attributable to the
office  properties was a result of the office  properties  acquired in the Tower
portfolio acquisition and the disposition of net leased industrial properties in
the "Big Box"  industrial  transaction.  This  shift in the  composition  of the
portfolio  was offset by increases in rental  rates and  operating  efficiencies
realized  as a  result  of  operating  a larger  portfolio  of  properties  with
concentration on properties in office and industrial parks or in its established
sub-markets.  The  increase  from  1997 to 1998 in the  gross  operating  margin
percentage  resulted  from  increases  realized in rental  rates,  the Company's
ability to realize  certain  operating  efficiencies  as a result of operating a
larger portfolio of properties with  concentrations  of properties in office and
industrial  parks or in its  established  sub-markets,  a stable  operating cost
environment and the increased ownership of net leased properties.

     Marketing,  general and administrative expenses were $24.3 million in 1999,
$16.9  million in 1998 and $8.8  million in 1997.  The  increase  in  marketing,
general and administrative expenses is due to the increased costs of opening and
maintaining  the  Company's New York City division and the increase in corporate
management and  administrative  costs associated with the growth of the Company.
The Company's  business  strategy has been to expand  further into the Tri-State
Area suburban markets and the New York City market by applying its standards for
high quality office and  industrial  space and premier tenant service to its New
Jersey, Westchester,  Southern Connecticut and New York City divisions. In doing
this, the Company seeks to create a superior  franchise  value that it enjoys in
its home  base of Long  Island.  Over the  past  three  years  the  Company  has
supported  this  effort  by  increasing  the  marketing  programs  in the  other
divisions  and  strengthening  the  resources  and  operating  systems  in these
divisions.  The cost of these efforts are reflected in both  marketing,  general
and  administrative  expenses  as well as the  revenue  growth  of the  Company.
Marketing,  general and administrative expense as a percentage of total revenues
were 6.0% in 1999, 6.3% in 1998 and 5.7% in 1997.

     Interest expense was $74.3 million in 1999, $47.8 million in 1998 and $21.6
million in 1997. The increase of $26.5 million from 1998 to 1999 is attributable
to (i)an increase in mortgage debt including approximately $232 million relating
to the Tower portfolio  acquisition  (ii) the issuance of $300 million of senior
unsecured  notes in March  1999 and (iii) an  increased  average  balance on the
Company's  credit  facilities  and  term  loan.  The  weighted  average  balance
outstanding on the Company's credit  facilities and term loan was $423.8 million
for 1999, $377.9 million for 1998 and $103.2 million for 1997.

     Included  in  amortization  expense is  amortized  financing  costs of $3.4
million in 1999,  $1.6 million in 1998 and $.8 million in 1997.  The increase of
$1.8 million from 1998 to 1999 is primarily  attributable  to the increased loan
costs incurred in connection with the Company increasing its unsecured term loan
in January 1999 to $75 million, the issuance of $300 million of senior unsecured
notes in March 1999 and the Company's  $130 million  unsecured  bridge  facility
obtained in connection  with the Tower  portfolio  acquisition  in May 1999. The
increase  of $.8 million  from 1997 to 1998 is  primarily  attributable  to loan
costs  incurred  in  connection  with the  Company's  obtaining  a $500  million
unsecured credit facility and a $50 million unsecured term loan.

     Extraordinary  losses, net of minority interest resulted in a $555,000 loss
in 1999,  a $1.7  million  loss in 1998  and a $2.2  million  loss in 1997.  The
extraordinary  losses were all attributed to the write-offs of certain  deferred
loan costs  incurred  in  connection  with the  Company's  restructuring  of its
unsecured bridge and credit facilities and term loans.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Summary of Cash Flows

     Net cash provided by operating  activities  totaled $154.6 million in 1999,
$117.5  million in 1998 and $75.8 million in 1997.  Increases for each year were
primarily attributable to the growth in cash flow provided by the acquisition of
properties  and to a lesser extent from interest  income from mortgage notes and
notes receivable.

                                      II-7

<PAGE>

     Net cash used in  investing  activities  totaled  $392.9  million  in 1999,
$612.6  million  in 1998 and  $549.3  million  in 1997.  Cash used in  investing
activities related primarily to investments in real estate properties  including
development  costs and  investments in mortgage notes and notes  receivable.  In
addition,  during 1998, the Company  purchased $40 million of preferred stock of
Tower Realty Trust, Inc. in connection with the Tower portfolio acquisition.

     Net cash provided by financing  activities  totaled $257.4 million in 1999,
$475.6  million in 1998 and $482.7  million in 1997.  Cash provided by financing
activities  during 1999,  1998 and 1997 was primarily  attributable  to proceeds
from the issuances of preferred stock,  common stock, senior unsecured notes and
advances  under the Company's  credit  facilities  and term loan.  Additionally,
during 1999,  approximately $126 million in proceeds from secured borrowings was
provided by financing activities.

Investing Activities

     On May 24, 1999,  the Tower  portfolio  acquisition  was completed with the
Company  obtaining  title to all of Tower's real estate  assets.  Simultaneously
with the closing of the Tower  acquisition the Company  arranged for the sale of
four of  Tower's  Class B New York City  office  properties.  In  addition,  the
Company  sold,  with the  exception of one Class A,  357,000  square foot office
building located in Orlando,  Florida,  all of the assets located outside of the
Tri-State Area. In addition to the aforementioned property in Orlando,  Florida,
the Company's  remaining assets from the Tower acquisition include three Class A
New York City office  properties  encompassing  approximately 1.6 million square
feet and one Class A office property on Long Island  encompassing  approximately
101,000 square feet.

     On June 15, 1999,  the Company  acquired the first mortgage note secured by
919 Third Avenue,  a 47 story,  1.4 million square foot Class A office  property
located in New York City.  The first  mortgage  note entitles the Company to all
the net cash  flow of the  property  and to  substantial  rights  regarding  the
operations of the property.

     On January 13, 2000,  the Company  acquired 1350 Avenue of the Americas,  a
540,000  square foot,  35 story,  Class A office  property,  located in New York
City, for a purchase price of approximately $126.5 million. This acquisition was
financed  through a $70  million  secured  debt  financing  and a draw under the
Company's unsecured credit facility.

     In June 1998, the Company  established the FrontLine Facility in the amount
of $100 million for  FrontLine's  e-commerce and  e-services  operations and for
other general corporate purposes.  As of December 31, 1999,  approximately $79.5
million had been advanced to FrontLine  under this  facility.  In addition,  the
Company  approved the commitment to fund  investments of up to $100 million with
or in RSVP.  As of December  31, 1999,  the Company has  invested  approximately
$67.2 million under this commitment,  of which $24.8 million  represents RSVP --
controlled  joint  venture  REIT -- qualified  investments  and  $42.4   million
represents advances to FrontLine under the RSVP Commitment.

Financing Activities

     During  1999,  the  Company  paid cash  dividends  on its  common  stock of
approximately $1.42 per share and approximately $.98 per share (representing the
period from May 24, 1999 through October 31, 1999) on its Class B Common Stock.

     On March 26, 1999,  the Operating  Partnership  issued $100 million of 7.4%
senior  unsecured  notes due March 15,  2004 and $200  million  of 7.75%  senior
unsecured notes due March 15, 2009. Net proceeds of approximately $297.4 million
were used to repay outstanding  borrowings under the Company's  unsecured credit
facility.

     On May 24, 1999, in conjunction with the Tower portfolio  acquisition,  the
Company issued  11,694,567  shares of Class B Common Stock which were valued for
purposes under GAAP at $26 per share for total  consideration  of  approximately
$304.1  million.  The shares of Class B Common  Stock are entitled to receive an
initial  annual  dividend  of $2.24 per  share,  which  dividend  is  subject to
adjustment  annually  commencing  on July 1, 2000.  The shares of Class B Common
Stock are  exchangeable at any time, at the option of the holder,  into an equal
number of shares of common stock, par value $.01 per

                                      II-8

<PAGE>

share,  of the  Company  subject  to  customary  antidilution  adjustments.  The
Company,  at its  option,  may redeem any or all of the Class B Common  Stock in
exchange for an equal number of shares of the Company's common stock at any time
following the four year,  six-month  anniversary  of the issuance of the Class B
Common Stock.

     The Board of Directors of the Company has  authorized the purchase of up to
three  million  shares  of the  Company's  Class B  Common  Stock  and has  also
authorized  the  purchase of up to an  additional  three  million  shares of the
Company's  Class B Common Stock and/or its common  stock.  The buy-back  program
will be effected in accordance with the safe harbor provisions of the Securities
Exchange  Act of 1934 and may be  terminated  by the Company at any time.  As of
December 31, 1999, the Company purchased and retired 1,410,804 shares of Class B
Common Stock for approximately $30.3 million.

     On June 2,  1999,  the  Company  issued  six  million  shares  of  Series B
Convertible  Cumulative  Preferred  Stock (the  "Series B Preferred  Stock") for
aggregate  proceeds of $150 million.  The Series B Preferred Stock is redeemable
by the Company on or after March 2, 2002 and is  convertible  into the Company's
common  stock at a price of $26.05  per  share.  The  Series B  Preferred  Stock
accumulate  dividends  at an  initial  rate of 7.85%  per  annum  with such rate
increasing  to 8.35% per annum on April 30, 2000 and to 8.85% per annum from and
after April 30, 2001.  Proceeds from the Series B Preferred  Stock offering were
used as partial  consideration  in the  acquisition  of the first  mortgage note
secured by 919 Third Avenue located in New York City.

     As of December 31, 1999 the Company had a three year $500 million unsecured
revolving  credit  facility (the "Credit  Facility")  with Chase Manhattan Bank,
Union Bank of Switzerland  and PNC Bank as  co-managers  of the Credit  Facility
bank group.  Interest rates on borrowings  under the Credit  Facility are priced
off of LIBOR  plus a  sliding  scale  ranging  from 65 basis  points to 90 basis
points based on the Company's  investment  grade rating on its senior  unsecured
debt. On March 16, 1999, the Company received its investment grade rating on its
senior  unsecured  debt. As a result,  the pricing under the Credit Facility was
adjusted to LIBOR plus 90 basis points.

     The  Company  utilizes  the  Credit  Facility   primarily  to  finance  the
acquisitions  of  properties  and  other  real  estate  investments,   fund  its
development  activities and for working capital purposes.  At December 31, 1999,
the Company had  availability  under the Credit Facility to borrow an additional
$150.1 million (net of $52.3 million of outstanding undrawn letters of credit).

     As of December  31,  1999,  the Company had  outstanding  an 18 month,  $75
million  unsecured  term loan (the  "Term  Loan")  from  Chase  Manhattan  Bank.
Interest  rates on  borrowings  under the Term Loan are priced off of LIBOR plus
150 basis points.  The Term Loan replaced the Company's previous term loan which
matured on December 17, 1999.

     On May 24, 1999, in conjunction with the Tower portfolio  acquisition,  the
Company  obtained  a  $130  million   unsecured  bridge  facility  (The  "Bridge
Facility") from UBS AG.  Interest rates on borrowings  under the Bridge Facility
were priced off of LIBOR plus  approximately 214 basis points. On July 23, 1999,
the Bridge Facility was repaid through a long term fixed rate secured  borrowing
and an advance under the Credit  Facility.  As a result,  certain  deferred loan
costs  incurred in  connection  with the Bridge  Facility were written off. Such
amount is  reflected  as an  extraordinary  loss in the  Company's  consolidated
statements of income.  The new mortgage note, in the amount of $125 million,  is
secured  by  two  office   properties  with  an  aggregate   carrying  value  of
approximately $261 million, is for a term of ten years and bears interest at the
rate of 7.73% per annum.

Capitalization

     The  Company's  indebtedness  at December  31, 1999  totaled  $1.3  billion
(including  its  share  of joint  venture  debt  and net of  minority  partners'
interests)  and was  comprised of $297.6  million  outstanding  under the Credit
Facility,  $75 million  outstanding  under the Term Loan,  approximately  $449.3
million of senior  unsecured  notes and  approximately  $445 million of mortgage
indebtedness  with a weighted average interest rate of approximately  7.6% and a
weighted average maturity of  approximately  12.1 years.  Based on the Company's
total market  capitalization  of  approximately  $3 billion at December 31, 1999
(calculated  based on the  market  value of the  Company's  common  stock and OP
Units, assuming

                                      II-9

<PAGE>

conversion  , the  market  value  of the  Company's  Class B Common  Stock,  the
liquidation  preference value of the Company's  preferred stock, the liquidation
preference value of the Operating Partnership's preferred units, the contributed
value of Metropolitan's  preferred  interest of $85 million and the $1.3 billion
of debt), the Company's debt represented approximately 42.3% of its total market
capitalization.

     Historically,  rental revenue has been the principal source of funds to pay
operating   expenses,   debt   service  and  capital   expenditures,   excluding
non-recurring  capital  expenditures of the Company. In addition,  the Company's
investments in mortgage  notes,  RSVP and advances under the FrontLine  Facility
are expected to produce cash flows.  The Company  expects to meet its short term
liquidity  requirements  generally  through its net cash  provided by  operating
activities  along with the Credit Facility and Term Loan  previously  discussed.
The  Company  expects to meet  certain  of its  financing  requirements  through
long-term  secured and unsecured  borrowings and the issuance of debt securities
and  additional  equity  securities  of the  Company.  The Company  also expects
certain strategic dispositions of assets or interests in assets to generate cash
flows. The Company will refinance existing mortgage indebtedness or indebtedness
under the Credit  Facility at maturity or retire such debt  through the issuance
of  additional  debt  securities or additional  equity  securities.  The Company
anticipates that the current balance of cash and cash equivalents and cash flows
from operating activities, together with cash available from borrowings and debt
and  equity  offerings,  will be  adequate  to meet the  capital  and  liquidity
requirements of the Company in both the short and long-term.

     In order to qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes,  the Company
is required to make  distributions  to its  stockholders of at least 95% of REIT
taxable  income.  The  Company  expects  to use its  cash  flow  from  operating
activities for  distributions  to stockholders  and for payment of expenditures.
The Company intends to invest amounts accumulated for distribution in short-term
investments.

INFLATION

     Certain  office  leases  provide for fixed base rent  increases  or indexed
escalations. In addition, certain office leases provide for separate escalations
of real estate  taxes and  electric  costs over a base  amount.  The  industrial
leases also generally provide for fixed base rent increases, direct pass through
of certain  operating  expenses and separate real estate tax  escalation  over a
base amount.  The Company believes that inflationary  increases in expenses will
generally  be offset by  contractual  rent  increases  and  expense  escalations
described above.

     The Credit  Facility  and the Term Loan bear  interest at a variable  rate,
which will be  influenced  by  changes in  short-term  interest  rates,  and are
sensitive to inflation.

IMPACT OF YEAR 2000

     During 1999, the Company  discussed the nature and progress of its plans to
become  Year  2000  ready.  In  that  regard,  the  Company  has  completed  its
assessment, remediation and testing of its systems in order for those systems to
function  properly  with  respect  to  dates  occurring  in the  Year  2000  and
thereafter. As a result of those efforts, the Company experienced no significant
disruptions in connection with its building management,  mechanical and computer
systems and believes that those systems successfully  responded to the Year 2000
date change.  The Company has expended  approximately  one million  dollars with
upgrading, replacing or remediating its systems and is not aware of any material
problems resulting from Year 2000 issues.  Further, the Company will continue to
monitor its  critical  building  management,  mechanical  and  computer  systems
throughout  the year 2000 to ensure that any latent Year 2000  matters  that may
arise are addressed promptly.

FUNDS FROM OPERATIONS

     Management  believes that funds from  operations  ("FFO") is an appropriate
measure  of  performance  of an equity  REIT.  FFO is  defined  by the  National
Association  of Real Estate  Investment  Trusts  (NAREIT) as net income or loss,
excluding gains or losses from debt restructurings and sales of properties, plus
depreciation  and  amortization,   and  after  adjustments  for   unconsolidated
partnerships  and joint  ventures.  FFO does not represent  cash  generated from
operating  activities  in  accordance  with GAAP and is not  indicative  of cash
available to fund cash needs.  FFO should not be considered as an alternative to
net income as an  indicator  of the  Company's  operating  performance  or as an
alternative  to cash flow as a measure of  liquidity.  (See  Selected  Financial
Data). In March 1995,  NAREIT issued a "White Paper" analysis to address certain
interpretive  issues under its  definition of FFO. The White Paper provides that
amortization  of deferred  financing  costs and  depreciation of non-rental real
estate  assets are no longer to be added back to net income to arrive at FFO. In
October 1999,  NAREIT  revised the definition of FFO to include gains and losses
from sales of properties and non-recurring  events.  This revised  definition is
effective for all periods beginning on or after January 1, 2000.

     Since all companies and analysts do not calculate FFO in a similar fashion,
the  Company's  calculation  of FFO  presented  herein may not be  comparable to
similarly titled measures as reported by other companies.

     The following  table presents the Company's FFO  calculation  for the years
ended December 31, (in thousands):

ITEM 7(A). QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

     The primary  market  risk  facing the Company is interest  rate risk on its
long term debt, mortgage notes and notes receivable.  The Company does not hedge
interest rate risk using  financial  instruments  nor is the Company  subject to
foreign currency risk.

     The Company manages its exposure to interest rate risk on its variable rate
indebtedness  by borrowing on a  short-term  basis under its Credit  Facility or
Term Loan until such time as it is able to retire the  short-term  variable rate
debt with a long-term  fixed rate debt  offering or an equity  offering  through
accessing the capital markets on terms that are advantageous to the Company.

     The following table sets forth the Company's long term debt  obligations by
scheduled  principal  cash flow  payments and maturity  date,  weighted  average
interest  rates and  estimated  fair market  value  ("FMV") at December 31, 1999
(dollars in thousands):

(1) Includes  unamortized  issuance  discounts  of $687,000 on the 5 and 10 year
    senior unsecured notes issued on March 26, 1999 which are due at maturity.

     In addition, the Company has assessed the market risk for its variable rate
debt, which is based upon LIBOR, and believes that a one percent increase in the
LIBOR rate would have an approximate  $3.7 million  annual  increase in interest
expense based on approximately $372.6 million outstanding at December 31, 1999.

     The  following  table  sets  forth the  Company's  mortgage  notes and note
receivables by scheduled  maturity  date,  weighted  average  interest rates and
estimated FMV at December 31, 1999 (dollars in thousands):

</TABLE>

(2) Excludes mortgage note receivable acquisition costs and interest receivables
    aggregating approximately $4.8 million.

     The fair value of the Company's  long term debt,  mortgage  notes and notes
receivable is estimated based on discounting future cash flows at interest rates
that  management  believes  reflects the risks  associated  with long term debt,
mortgage notes and notes receivable of similar risk and duration.

                         REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS

Board of Directors and Stockholders

Reckson Associates Realty Corp.

We  have  audited  the  accompanying  consolidated  balance  sheets  of  Reckson
Associates  Realty  Corp.  as of  December  31,  1999 and 1998,  and the related
consolidated statements of income, stockholders' equity, and cash flows for each
of the three years in the period ended  December 31, 1999.  We have also audited
the  financial  statement  schedule  listed  in the index at item  14(a).  These
financial  statements and financial statement schedule are the responsibility of
the Company's  management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements and financial statement 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 Reckson Associates
Realty Corp. at December 31, 1999 and 1998, and the consolidated  results of its
operations  and its cash flows for each of the three  years in the period  ended
December 31, 1999, in conformity with accounting  principles  generally accepted
in the United States.  Also, in our opinion,  the financial  statement  schedule
referred to above, when considered in relation to the basic financial statements
taken as a whole, presents fairly, in all material respects, the information set
forth therein.

1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

     Reckson Associates Realty Corp. (the "Company") is a self-administered  and
self managed real estate  investment  trust  ("REIT")  engaged in the ownership,
management,  operation,  leasing  and  development  of  commercial  real  estate
properties,  principally office and industrial  buildings and also owns land for
future  development  (collectively,  the  "Properties")  located in the New York
tri-state area (the "Tri-State Area").

ORGANIZATION AND FORMATION OF THE COMPANY

     The Company was  incorporated  in Maryland in September 1994. In June 1995,
the Company  completed  an Initial  Public  Offering  (the "IPO") and  commenced
operations.  The  aggregate  proceeds  to  the  Company,  net  of  underwriters'
discount,  advisory  fees and  other  offering  costs  were  approximately  $162
million.

     The  Company  became  the  sole  general   partner  of  Reckson   Operating
Partnership,  L.P. (the "Operating  Partnership") by contributing  substantially
all of the net proceeds of the IPO, in exchange for an approximate  73% interest
in the Operating Partnership. All Properties acquired by the Company are held by
or through the Operating Partnership. In conjunction with the IPO, the Operating
Partnership  executed various option and purchase  agreements  whereby it issued
common  units of  limited  partnership  interest  in the  Operating  Partnership
("Units")  to certain  continuing  investors  in exchange  for (i)  interests in
certain  property  partnerships,  (ii) fee simple  and  leasehold  interests  in
properties and  development  land,  (iii) certain  business  assets of executive
center  entities  and  (iv)  100%  of  the  non-voting  preferred  stock  of the
management and construction companies.

     During 1997, the Company formed Reckson Service Industries,  Inc. currently
D/B/A  FrontLine  Capital  Group  ("FrontLine")  and Reckson  Strategic  Venture
Partners, LLC ("RSVP"). On June 11, 1998, the Operating Partnership  distributed
its 95% common stock  interest in FrontLine of  approximately  $3 million to its
owners,  including the Company which,  in turn,  distributed the common stock of
FrontLine   received  from  the  Operating   Partnership  to  its  stockholders.
Additionally,  during June 1998, the Operating Partnership  established a credit
facility with FrontLine (the "FrontLine Facility") in the amount of $100 million
for FrontLine's e-commerce and e-services operations and other general corporate
purposes.  As of December 31, 1999, the Company had advanced $79.5 million under
the FrontLine Facility. In addition,  the Operating Partnership has approved the
funding  of  investments  of up to  $100  million  with or in  RSVP  (the  "RSVP
Commitment"),  through RSVP-controlled joint venture REIT-qualified  investments
or advances made to FrontLine under terms similar to the FrontLine Facility.  As
of December 31, 1999,  approximately $67.2 million had been invested through the
RSVP Commitment, of which $24.8 million represents RSVP-controlled joint venture
REIT-qualified  investments and $42.4 million  represents  advances to FrontLine
under the RSVP Commitment.

     During  November  1999,  the Board of Directors of the Company  approved an
amendment to the FrontLine  Facility and the RSVP Commitment to permit FrontLine
to incur  secured  debt and to pay interest  thereon.  In  consideration  of the
amendments,  FrontLine has paid the Operating Partnership a fee of approximately
$3.6 million in the form of shares of FrontLine common stock.  Such fee is being
recognized in income over an estimated nine month benefit period.

     FrontLine  identifies,  acquires  interests  in and  develops  a network of
business to business  e-commerce and e-services  companies that service small to
medium sized  enterprises,  independent  professionals and entrepreneurs and the
mobile workforce of larger companies. FrontLine serves as the managing member of
RSVP.  RSVP was formed to provide the Company  with a research  and  development
vehicle to invest in alternative real estate sectors.  RSVP invests primarily in
real estate and real estate related operating companies generally outside of the
Company's core office and industrial

focus.  RSVP's  strategy is to identify  and acquire  interests  in  established
entrepreneurial  enterprises with experienced management teams in market sectors
which  are  in  the  early   stages  of  their  growth  cycle  or  offer  unique
circumstances  for  attractive  investments  as well as a  platform  for  future
growth.

     On January 6, 1998,  the Company made its initial  investment in the Morris
Companies,  a New Jersey developer and owner of "Big Box" warehouse  facilities.
In connection  with the  transaction the Morris  Companies  contributed  100% of
their  interests in certain  industrial  properties to Reckson Morris  Operating
Partnership,  L. P. ("RMI") in exchange for operating  partnership units in RMI.
On September 27, 1999, the Company sold its interest in RMI to Keystone Property
Trust ("KTR") (formerly  American Real Estate Investment  Corporation) (see note
6).

     During  July  1998,  the  Company   formed   Metropolitan   Partners,   LLC
("Metropolitan")   for  the  purpose  of  acquiring  Tower  Realty  Trust,  Inc.
("Tower").  On May 24,  1999 the  Company  completed  the merger  with Tower and
acquired three Class A office  properties  located in New York City totaling 1.6
million  square feet and one office  property  located on Long  Island  totaling
approximately  101,000  square feet.  In addition,  pursuant to the merger,  the
Company also acquired certain office  properties,  a property under  development
and land located  outside of the Tri-State  Area. All of the assets  acquired in
the merger,  located outside of the Tri-State Area,  other than a 357,000 square
foot office property located in Orlando, Florida, have been sold (see note 6).

BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

     The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the consolidated
financial position of the Company and the Operating  Partnership at December 31,
1999 and 1998 and the results of their  operations and their cash flows for each
of  the  three  years  in the  period  ended  December  31,1999.  The  Operating
Partnership's  investments in Metropolitan and Omni Partners, L. P. ("Omni") are
reflected in the accompanying  financial statements on a consolidated basis with
a  reduction  for  minority  partners'  interest.  The  Operating  Partnership's
investment in RMI was reflected in the  accompanying  financial  statements on a
consolidated  basis with a reduction  for minority  partner's  interest  through
September 26, 1999. On September 27, 1999,  the Operating  Partnership  sold its
interest in RMI to KTR (see note 6). The operating  results of Reckson Executive
Centers,  L.L.C.,  ("REC"), a service business of the Operating Partnership were
reflected  in the  accompanying  financial  statements  on the equity  method of
accounting  through March 31, 1998. On April 1, 1998, the Operating  Partnership
sold its 9.9% interest in REC to FrontLine.  Additionally, the operating results
of FrontLine  were  reflected in the  accompanying  financial  statements on the
equity  method  of  accounting  through  June 10,  1998.  On June  11,  1998 the
Operating Partnership  distributed its 95% common stock interest in FrontLine to
its owners,  including the Company which, in turn,  distributed the common stock
of  FrontLine  to  its  stockholders.  The  operating  results  of  the  service
businesses  currently  conducted by Reckson Management Group,  Inc.("RMG"),  and
Reckson  Construction  Group,  Inc.("RCG"),  are  reflected in the  accompanying
financial  statements  on  the  equity  method  of  accounting.   The  Operating
Partnership  also  invests in real estate joint  ventures  where it may own less
than  a  controlling  interest,  such  investments  are  also  reflected  in the
accompanying  financial  statements  on the  equity  method of  accounting.  All
significant  intercompany  balances and transactions have been eliminated in the
consolidated financial statements.

     The  merger  with  Tower (see note 6) was  accounted  for as a purchase  in
accordance with Accounting  Principles  Board Opinion No. 16.  Accordingly,  the
fair  value  of the  consideration  given by the  Company,  in  accordance  with
generally accepted  accounting  principles  ("GAAP"),  was used as the valuation
basis for the merger. The assets acquired and liabilities assumed by the Company
were  recorded  at the fair value as of the  closing  date of the merger and the
excess  of the  purchase  price  over the  historical  basis  of the net  assets
acquired was allocated  primarily to operating  real estate  properties and real
estate properties which have been sold.

1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - (CONTINUED)

     The minority  interests at December 31, 1999 represent an  approximate  13%
limited partnership  interest in the Operating  Partnership,  an approximate 28%
interest in certain industrial joint venture properties formerly owned by RMI, a
convertible preferred interest in Metropolitan and a 40% interest in Omni.

Use of Estimates

     The  preparation of financial  statements in conformity  with GAAP 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.

Real Estate

     Depreciation  is  computed  utilizing  the  straight-line  method  over the
estimated useful lives of ten to thirty years for buildings and improvements and
five to ten years for furniture,  fixtures and equipment.  Tenant  improvements,
which  are  included  in  buildings  and   improvements,   are  amortized  on  a
straight-line basis over the term of the related leases.

Cash Equivalents

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

Deferred Costs

     Tenant leasing  commissions  and related costs incurred in connection  with
leasing tenant space are  capitalized and amortized over the life of the related
lease.  In addition,  loan costs incurred are capitalized and amortized over the
term of the related loan.

     Costs  incurred  in  connection   with  stock   offerings  are  charged  to
stockholders equity when incurred.

Income Taxes

     The Company  generally  will not be subject to federal income taxes as long
as it  qualifies  as a REIT.  A REIT will  generally  not be  subject to federal
income  taxation on that portion of income that qualifies as REIT taxable income
and to the extent that it distributes  such taxable  income to its  stockholders
and complies  with certain  requirements.  As a REIT,  the Company is allowed to
reduce taxable income by all or a portion of  distributions  to stockholders and
must  distribute  at least 95% of its  taxable  income to qualify as a REIT.  As
distributions, for federal income tax purposes, have exceeded taxable income, no
federal income tax provision has been reflected in the accompanying consolidated
financial statements. State income taxes are not significant.

     During  1999,  the  Company  paid cash  dividends  on its  common  stock of
approximately $1.42 per share and approximately $.98 per share (representing the
period from May 24, 1999 through  October 31, 1999) on its Class B Common Stock.
During  1998,  the Company  paid cash  dividends on its common stock of $.99 per
share  (representing  dividends for three  quarters).  In addition,  on June 11,
1998, the Company paid a stock dividend  equivalent to $.0824 per share relating
to the  Operating  Partnership's  distribution  of its common stock  interest in
FrontLine to the Company.  All of the  dividends  paid on the  Company's  common
stock during 1998 were considered ordinary income for federal tax purposes.  For
1999,  approximately  92.75% of the dividends paid on the Company's common stock
and Class B Common  Stock  were  considered  ordinary  income  for  federal  tax
purposes.  The remaining  7.25% of the dividends  paid were treated as a capital
gain  distribution,  subject to a 20% tax rate for individuals and certain other
taxpayers.

Revenue Recognition

     Minimum rental income is recognized on a straight-line  basis over the term
of the lease. The excess of rents recognized over amounts  contractually due are
included  in deferred  rents  receivable  on the  accompanying  balance  sheets.
Contractually  due but unpaid  rents are included in tenant  receivables  on the
accompanying balance sheets.  Certain lease agreements provide for reimbursement
of real  estate  taxes,  insurance,  common area  maintenance  costs and indexed
rental increases, which are recorded on an accrual basis.

     The Company  records  interest  income on investments in mortgage notes and
notes receivable on an accrual basis of accounting.  The Company does not accrue
interest on impaired loans where,  in the judgment of management,  collection of
interest  according to the contractual terms is considered  doubtful.  Among the
factors the Company  considers in making an evaluation of the  collectibility of
interest are: the status of the loan,  the value of the  underlying  collateral,
the financial  condition of the borrower and  anticipated  future  events.  Loan
discounts  are  amortized  over the life of the real estate  using the  constant
interest method.

     Gains from sales of real estate are recorded  when title is conveyed to the
buyer,  subject to the buyer's financial  commitment being sufficient to provide
economic substance to the sale.

Earnings Per Share

     In 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement
No. 128,  "Earnings per Share"  ("Statement 128") which 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 very similar to the  previously  reported  fully  diluted
earnings per share.  All  earnings  per share  amounts for all periods have been
presented,  and where  appropriate,  restated  to conform to the  Statement  128
requirements.  The  conversion  of Units  into  common  stock  would  not have a
significant effect on per share amounts as the Units share  proportionately with
the common stock in the results of the Operating Partnership's operations.

Stock Options

     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  because,  the
alternative  fair value  accounting  provided for under FASB  Statement No. 123,
"Accounting for  Stock-Based  Compensation,"  ("Statement  123") requires use of
option  valuation  models that were not  developed  for use in valuing  employee
stock options.  Under APB 25, no compensation expense was recognized because the
exercise  price of the Company's  employee stock options equals the market price
of the underlying stock on the date of grant (see Note 7).

Comprehensive Income

     In 1997,  the FASB  issued  Statement  No.  130,  "Reporting  Comprehensive
Income"  ("Statement  130") which is effective for fiscal years  beginning after
December  15,  1997.   Statement   130   established   standards  for  reporting
comprehensive  income  and  its  components  in a full  set  of  general-purpose
financial   statements.   Statement   130  requires   that  all   components  of
comprehensive income be reported in a financial statement that is displayed with
the same prominence as other financial statements. The adoption of this standard
had no impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations.

Segment Reporting

     In 1997, the FASB issued Statement No. 131  "Disclosures  about segments of
an Enterprise and Related Information"  ("Statement 131") which is effective for
fiscal  years  beginning  after  December 15, 1997.  Statement  131  establishes
standards for reporting information about operating segments in annual financial
statements and in interim financial reports.  It also establishes  standards for
related  disclosures  about  products and services,  geographic  areas and major
customers.  The  adoption  of  this  standard  had no  impact  on the  Company's
financial  position or results of  operations  but did affect the  disclosure of
segment information. See Note 11.

Recent Pronouncements

     In June 1999,  the FASB issued  Statement No. 137,  amending  Statement No.
133,  "Accounting  for Derivative  Instruments  and Hedging  Activities",  which
extended the  required  date of adoption to the years  beginning  after June 15,
2000.  The Statement  permits  early  adoption as of the beginning of any fiscal
quarter  after its  issuance.  The  Company  expects to adopt the new  Statement
effective  January 1, 2001. The Company does not anticipate that the adoption of
this  Statement  will have any effect on its results of  operations or financial
position.

Reclassifications

     Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current

2. MORTGAGE NOTES PAYABLE

     At  December  31,  1999,  there  were 17  mortgage  notes  payable  with an
aggregate   outstanding   principal  amount  of  approximately  $459.2  million.
Properties   with  an  aggregate   carrying   value  at  December  31,  1999  of

and mature  between 2000 and 2027.  The weighted  average  interest rates on the
outstanding  mortgage  notes  payable at December 31,  1999,  1998 and 1997 were
approximately 7.6%, 7.8% and 7.7%,  respectively.  Certain of the mortgage notes
payable  are   guaranteed  by  certain   minority   partners  in  the  Operating
Partnership.

     Scheduled  principal  repayments  during the next five years and thereafter
are as follows (in thousands):

3. UNSECURED CREDIT FACILITIES AND UNSECURED TERM LOAN

     As of  December  31,  1999,  the  Company  had a three  year  $500  million
unsecured revolving credit facility (the "Credit Facility") from Chase Manhattan
Bank,  Union  Bank of  Switzerland  and PNC Bank as  co-managers  of the  Credit
Facility bank group. Interest rates on borrowings under the Credit Facility

are priced off of LIBOR plus a sliding  scale ranging from 65 basis points to 90
basis  points  based on the  Company's  investment  grade  rating on its  senior
unsecured  debt. On March 16, 1999, the Company  received its  investment  grade
rating on its senior  unsecured debt. As a result,  the pricing under the Credit
Facility was adjusted to LIBOR plus 90 basis points.

     The  Company  utilizes  the  Credit  Facility   primarily  to  finance  the
acquisitions  of  properties  and  other  real  estate  investments,   fund  its
development  activities and for working capital purposes.  At December 31, 1999,
the Company had  availability  under the Credit Facility to borrow an additional
$150.1 million (net of $52.3 million of outstanding undrawn letters of credit).

     As of December  31,  1999,  the Company had  outstanding  an 18 month,  $75
million  unsecured  term loan (the  "Term  Loan")  from  Chase  Manhattan  Bank.
Interest  rates on  borrowings  under the Term Loan are priced off of LIBOR plus
150 basis points.  The Term Loan replaced the Company's previous term loan which
matured on December 17, 1999.

     On May 24, 1999, in conjunction  with the Tower portfolio  acquisition (see
Note 6), the Company  obtained a $130 million  unsecured  bridge  facility  (The
"Bridge  Facility") from UBS AG.  Interest rates on borrowings  under the Bridge
Facility were priced off of LIBOR plus  approximately  214 basis points. On July
23, 1999, the Bridge  Facility was repaid through a long term fixed rate secured
borrowing  and an  advance  under the  Credit  Facility.  As a  result,  certain
deferred loan costs incurred in connection with the Bridge Facility were written
off.  Such amount is  reflected  as an  extraordinary  loss in the  accompanying
consolidated statements of income.

     The Company  capitalized  interest  incurred on  borrowings to fund certain
acquisition  and development  costs in the amount of $9.8 million,  $7.3 million
and $2.4  million  for the  years  ended  December  31,  1999,  1998  and  1997,
respectively.

4. SENIOR UNSECURED NOTES

     As  of  December  31,  1999,  the  Operating  Partnership  had  outstanding
approximately  $449.3  million (net of issuance  discounts) of senior  unsecured
notes  (the  "Senior  Unsecured  Notes").  The  following  table  sets forth the
Operating  Partnership's  Senior  Unsecured Notes and other related  disclosures

     Interest  on the  Senior  Unsecured  Notes  is  payable  semiannually  with
principal and unpaid interest due on the scheduled  maturity dates. In addition,
the Senior  Unsecured Notes issued on March 26, 1999 were issued at an aggregate
discount of $738,000.

     Net proceeds of approximately  $297.4 million received from the issuance of
the  March 26,  1999  Senior  Unsecured  Notes  were  used to repay  outstanding
borrowings under the Company's Credit Facility.

5. LAND LEASES

     The Company leases,  pursuant to noncancellable  operating leases, the land
on which ten of its  buildings  were  constructed.  The  leases,  which  contain
renewal  options,  expire  between  2018 and 2080.  The  leases  either  contain
provisions for scheduled increases in the minimum rent at specified intervals or

or other indexes at specified intervals.  Minimum ground rent is recognized on a
straight-line  basis  over the  terms  of the  leases.  The  excess  of  amounts
recognized over amounts contractually due is approximately $2.6 million and $2.3
million at December 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively.  These amounts are included

6. COMMERCIAL REAL ESTATE INVESTMENTS

The Tower Merger

     In July 1998,  the Company formed a joint  venture,  Metropolitan  Partners
LLC, a Delaware limited liability company  ("Metropolitan"),  with Crescent Real
Estate Equities Company, a Texas real estate investment trust ("Crescent").

     On December 8, 1998, the Company, Metropolitan and Tower Realty Trust, Inc.
("Tower")  executed a merger agreement and on May 24, 1999 Tower was merged (the
"Merger")   into   Metropolitan,   with   Metropolitan   surviving  the  Merger.
Concurrently with the Merger, Tower Realty Operating  Partnership,  L.P. ("Tower
OP") was merged with and into a subsidiary of  Metropolitan.  The  consideration
issued  in the  mergers  was  comprised  of (i) 25% cash  (approximately  $107.2
million) and (ii) 75% of shares of Class B Exchangeable  Common Stock, par value
$.01 per share,  of the Company  (the "Class B Common  Stock")  (valued for GAAP
purposes at approximately $304.1 million).

     Under the terms of the transaction,  Metropolitan effectively paid for each
share of Tower  common  stock and each unit of limited  partnership  interest of
Tower OP the sum of (i)  $5.75 in cash,  and (ii)  0.6273  of a share of Class B
Common  Stock.  The shares of Class B Common  Stock are  entitled  to receive an
initial  annual  dividend  of $2.24 per  share,  which  dividend  is  subject to
adjustment  annually  commencing  on July 1, 2000.  The shares of Class B Common
Stock are  exchangeable at any time, at the option of the holder,  into an equal
number of shares of common  stock,  par value  $.01 per  share,  of the  Company
subject to customary antidilution  adjustments.  The Company, at its option, may
redeem any or all of the Class B Common Stock in exchange for an equal number of
shares  of the  Company's  common  stock at any time  following  the four  year,
six-month anniversary of the issuance of the Class B Common Stock.

     The Board of  Directors  of the Company has  authorized a purchase buy back
program for the Company's Class B Common Stock (see note 7).

     The  Company  controls  Metropolitan  and owns 100% of the  common  equity;
Crescent  owns  a  $85  million   preferred  equity  interest  in  Metropolitan.
Crescent's  interest  accrues  distributions  at a rate of 7.5% per  annum for a
two-year period (May 24, 1999 through May 24, 2001) and may be redeemed by

Metropolitan  at any time  during that  period for $85  million,  plus an amount
sufficient to provide a 9.5% internal rate of return.  If Metropolitan  does not
redeem the  preferred  interest,  upon the  expiration  of the two-year  period,
Crescent  must  convert its $85  million  preferred  interest  into either (i) a
common  membership  interest in  Metropolitan  or (ii)  shares of the  Company's
common stock at a conversion price of $24.61 per share.

     The  Tower  portfolio  acquired  in the  Merger  consists  of three  office
properties comprising  approximately 1.6 million square feet located in New York
City, one office property  located on Long Island and certain office  properties
and other real estate assets located outside the Tri-State Area.

     Prior to the closing of the Merger,  the Company  arranged  for the sale of
four of  Tower's  Class B New York  City  properties,  comprising  approximately
701,000 square feet for approximately  $84.5 million.  Subsequent to the closing
of the Merger, the Company has sold a real estate joint venture interest and all
of the  property  located  outside  the  Tri-State  Area  other  than one office
property  located in Orlando,  Florida for  approximately  $171.1  million.  The
combined  consideration  consisted of  approximately  $143.8 million in cash and
approximately  $27.3  million of debt relief.  Net cash  proceeds from the sales
were used primarily to repay borrowings  under the Credit Facility.  As a result
of incurring  certain sales and closing costs in connection with the sale of the
assets  located  outside the Tri-State  Area, the Company has incurred a loss of
approximately  $4.4  million  which has been  included  in gain on sales of real
estate on the accompanying consolidated statements of income.

"Big Box" Industrial Investment Activity

     On January 6, 1998,  the Company made an initial  investment  in the Morris
Companies,  a New Jersey developer and owner of "Big Box" warehouse  facilities.
In connection  with the  transaction the Morris  Companies  contributed  100% of
their  interests  in  certain  industrial  properties  to  RMI in  exchange  for
operating partnership units in RMI.

     During 1999, the Company purchased  approximately 68.1 acres of vacant land
in  Northern  New  Jersey for  approximately  $2.6  million.  In  addition,  RMI
purchased 74.6 acres of vacant land for approximately $3.7 million and a 846,000
square  foot   industrial   property   located  in  Cranbury,   New  Jersey  for
approximately  $34  million.  These  assets  were  sold to KTR  and  the  Matrix
Development Group ("Matrix") as discussed below.

     On August 9, 1999, the Company executed a contract for the sale, which will
take  place in three  stages,  of its  interest  in RMI  which  consisted  of 28
properties, comprising approximately 6.1 million square feet and three other big
box industrial  properties to KTR. In addition,  the Company also entered into a
sale  agreement  with  Matrix  relating  to a first  mortgage  note and  certain
industrial land holdings (the "Matrix  Sale").  The combined total sale price is
$310  million  (approximately  $42  million  of which is  payable  to the Morris
Companies and its  affiliates)  and consists of a combination of (i) cash,  (ii)
convertible  preferred and common stock of KTR, (iii)  preferred  units of KTR's
operating  partnership,  (iv) relief of debt and (v) a purchase  money  mortgage
note secured by certain land that is being sold to Matrix.

     During  September  1999,  the  Matrix  Sale and the first  stage of the RMI
closing  occurred  whereby  the  Company  sold its  interest in RMI to KTR for a
combined sales price of approximately  $164.7 million (net of minority partner's
interest).  The  combined  consideration  consisted of  approximately  (i) $86.3
million in cash,  (ii) $40 million of preferred stock of KTR, (iii) $1.5 million
in common stock of KTR, (iv) approximately  $26.7 million of debt relief and (v)
approximately  $10.2  million in  purchase  money  mortgages.  As a result,  the
Company incurred a gain of  approximately  $10.1 million which has been included
in gain on sales of real estate on the accompanying  consolidated  statements of
income. In

addition,  the $41.5  million  of  common  and  preferred  stock of KTR has been
included in prepaid expenses and other assets on the  accompanying  consolidated
balance  sheet.  Cash  proceeds  from the  sales  were used  primarily  to repay
borrowings under the Credit Facility.

     The  second  and  third  stages  of the RMI  closing  are  scheduled  to be
completed  in  April  2000.  The  remaining  stages  consist  of six  industrial
buildings  and are  being  sold for total  consideration  of  approximately  $98
million .

Other Real Estate Investment Activity

     During 1998,  the Company  acquired  three office  properties  encompassing
approximately  674,000  square  feet,  two  industrial  properties  encompassing
approximately  200,000 square feet and  approximately  79.9 acres of vacant land
which  allows  for  approximately  816,000  square  feet of  future  development
opportunities  on Long Island for an aggregate  purchase price of  approximately
$82.8 million.

     During  1998,  the Company  acquired  four office  properties  encompassing
approximately  522,000  square  feet,  six  industrial  properties  encompassing
approximately  985,000 square feet and approximately  112.2 acres of vacant land
which  allows  for  approximately  815,000  square  feet of  future  development
opportunities  in New Jersey for an aggregate  purchase  price of  approximately
$138.1 million.

     During 1998,  the Company  acquired  Stamford  Towers  located in Stamford,
Connecticut for approximately $61.3 million. Stamford Towers is a Class A office
complex  consisting of two eleven story towers  totaling  approximately  325,000
square feet.

     During  1998,  the Company  acquired a portfolio  of six office  properties
encompassing  approximately  980,000 square feet in Westchester County, New York
from Cappelli  Enterprises and affiliated  entities  ("Cappelli") for a purchase
price of approximately $173 million.  The Cappelli  acquisition  includes a five
building,  850,000 square foot Class A office park located in Valhalla, New York
and Court House Square, a 130,000 square foot Class A office building located in
White  Plains,  New York.  The Company also obtained from Cappelli the remaining
50% interest in 360 Hamilton  Avenue,  a 365,000 square foot vacant office tower
in  downtown  White  Plains  for $10  million  plus the  return  of his  capital
contributions of approximately $1.5 million.  In addition,  the Company received
an option from Cappelli to acquire the remaining  development parcels within the
Valhalla  office park on which up to 875,000  square feet of office space can be
developed. These acquisitions were financed in part through proceeds from a draw
under the Credit Facility,  the issuance of 42,518 (approximately $42.5 million)
preferred operating  partnership units (the "Cappelli Preferred Units"), and the
assumption of approximately $47.1 million of mortgage debt. Additionally,  as of
December 31, 1999,  the Company  issued and advanced to Cappelli  $36.5  million
under three  liquidity  loans (the  "Cappelli  Liquidity  Loans").  The Cappelli
Liquidity  Loans bear  interest at rates ranging from 10% to 10.5% per annum and
are secured by Cappelli's  right,  title and interest in the Cappelli  Preferred
Units.  Such amounts have been  included in  investments  in mortgage  notes and
notes receivable on the accompanying balance sheets.

     On April 13, 1999, the Company  received  approximately  $25.8 million from
the  repayment  of a  mortgage  note  receivable  which had been  acquired  at a
discount  and secured  three  office  properties  located in Garden  City,  Long
Island, encompassing approximately 400,000 square feet. As a result, the Company
recognized a gain of approximately $4.3 million.  Such gain has been included in
gain on sales of real  estate on the  accompanying  consolidated  statements  of
income.

     On June 7, 1999 the  Company  sold a 24,000  square  foot  office  property
located  in  Ossining,  New York for  approximately  $1.5  million.  As  partial
consideration  for the sale,  the Company  obtained a $1.2  million,  three year
purchase money mortgage.

6. COMMERCIAL REAL ESTATE INVESTMENTS - (CONTINUED)

     On June 15, 1999, the Company acquired the first mortgage note secured by a
47 story,  1.4 million square foot Class A office property  located at 919 Third
Avenue in New York City for  approximately  $277.5  million.  The first mortgage
note  entitles  the  Company  to all the net cash  flow of the  property  and to
substantial  rights  regarding the operations of the property,  with the Company
anticipating to ultimately  obtain title to the property.  This  acquisition was
financed  with  proceeds  from the  issuance of six  million  shares of Series B
Convertible Cumulative Preferred Stock (see note 7) and through an advance under
the Credit Facility.  Current financial accounting guidelines provide that where
a lender has virtually  the same risks and potential  rewards as those of a real
estate owner it should  recognize the full economic  effect  associated with the
operations  of the property.  As such,  the Company has included the real estate
operations of 919 Third Avenue in the  accompanying  consolidated  statements of
income from the date of acquisition.

     In  addition,   as  of  December   31,  1999,   the  Company  has  invested
approximately  $15.7 million in certain  mortgage  indebtedness  encumbering one
Class A office  property  encompassing  approximately  177,000  square  feet and
approximately  472 acres of land  located in New  Jersey.  The  Company has also
loaned  approximately  $17 million to its minority  partner in Omni, its 575,000
square foot flagship Long Island office property,  and effectively increased its
economic interest in the property owning partnership.

7. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

     A Unit and a share of  common  stock  have  essentially  the same  economic
characteristics  as they effectively share equally in the net income or loss and
distributions of the Operating  Partnership.  Subject to certain holding periods
Units may either be redeemed for cash or, at the  election of the  Company,  for
shares of common stock on a one-for-one basis.

     On February 18, 1998,  the Company  sold  791,152  shares of the  Company's
common stock at $25.44 per share for an aggregate consideration of approximately
$20.1 million before deducting offering expenses.

     During April 1998,  the Company  completed a preferred  stock  offering and
sold 9,200,000 shares (including 1,200,000 shares related to the exercise of the
underwriters  over allotment  option) of 7.625% Series A Convertible  Cumulative
Preferred Stock (the "Series A Preferred  Stock") at a price of $25.00 per share
for an  aggregate  consideration  of  $230  million  before  deducting  offering
expenses.  The Series A Preferred  Stock is convertible to the Company's  common
stock at a  conversion  rate of .8769  shares of common  stock for each share of
Series A Preferred  Stock. As of December 31, 1999, 8,000 shares of the Series A
Preferred Stock were converted into the Company's common stock.

     On April 29, 1998,  the Company  completed a common stock offering and sold

Company's  common  stock at a price of $26.05 per share.  The Series B Preferred
Stock accumulates dividends at an initial rate of 7.85% per annum with such rate
increasing  to 8.35% per annum on April 30, 2000 and to 8.85% per annum from and
after April 30, 2001.  Proceeds from the Series B Preferred  Stock offering were
used as partial  consideration  in the  acquisition  of the first  mortgage note
secured by 919 Third Avenue located in New York City.

     The Board of Directors of the Company has  authorized the purchase of up to
three  million  shares  of the  Company's  Class B  Common  Stock  and has  also
authorized  the  purchase of up to an  additional  three  million  shares of the
Company's  Class B Common Stock and/or its common  stock.  The buy-back  program
will be effected in accordance with the safe harbor provisions of the Securities
Exchange  Act of 1934 and may be  terminated  by the Company at any time.  As of
December 31, 1999,  the Company  purchased and retired  1,410,804  shares of its
Class B Common Stock for approximately $30.3 million.

     The  Company  has made  loans to certain  executive  officers  to  purchase
545,393 shares of common stock at market prices ranging from $20.56 per share to
$27.13 per share.  The loans bear  interest at the mid-term  Applicable  Federal
Rate and are  secured by the shares  purchased.  Such  loans  including  accrued
interest will be forgiven each year on the annual  anniversary of the grant date
based upon amortization periods ranging from four to ten years. In addition, the
loans which are secured by 310,834 shares of common stock are due with a balloon
payment on the fifth  anniversary  of the grant date and loans which are secured
by 47,059 and 187,500 shares of common stock are forgiven over terms of four and
seven years, respectively. As of December 31, 1999, the loan balances aggregated
approximately  $11.1 million and have been included as a reduction of additional
paid in capital on the  accompanying  consolidated  statement  of  stockholders'
equity.

     The Company has  established  the 1995,  1996, 1997 and 1998 Employee Stock
Option Plans (the "Plans") for the purpose of attracting and retaining executive

     During  1999 and 1998,  employees  exercised  88,308  and  74,837  options,
respectively  resulting in proceeds to the Company of approximately $1.2 million
and $1.1 million, respectively.

     Pro forma  information  regarding  net  income  and  earnings  per share is
required  by  Statement  123,  and has been  determined  as if the  Company  had
accounted  for its  employee  stock  options  under  the fair  value  method  of
Statement  123.  The fair value for these  options was  estimated at the date of
grant  using  a   Black-Scholes   option   pricing   model  with  the  following
weighted-average  assumptions for 1999, 1998 and 1997,  respectively:  risk-free
interest  rate of 5%;  dividend  yields of 7.25 %, 6.19% and  5.59%;  volatility
factors of the expected market price of the Company's common stock of .197 and a
weighted-average expected life of the option of five years.

     The  Black-Scholes   option  valuation  model  was  developed  for  use  in
estimating the fair value of traded  options which have no vesting  restrictions
and are fully  transferable.  In addition,  option  valuation models require the
input of highly  subjective  assumptions  including  the  expected  stock  price
volatility.  Because the Company's  employee stock options have  characteristics
significantly  different from those of traded options and because changes in the
subjective input assumptions can materially  affect the fair value estimate,  in
management's  opinion, the existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable
single measure of the fair value of its employee stock options.

     For  purposes of pro forma  disclosures,  the  estimated  fair value of the
options is amortized to expense over the options' vesting period.

years ended December 31:

8. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

     The Company, through its subsidiaries and affiliates,  provides management,
leasing and other tenant related services to the Properties.  Certain  executive
officers  of  the  Company   have   continuing   ownership   interests   in  the
unconsolidated service companies.

     In  connection  with the IPO,  the  Company  was  granted a ten year option
period to acquire ten  properties  which are either owned by the Reckson  Group,
the  predecessor  to  the  Company,  or  in  which  the  Reckson  Group  owns  a
non-controlling minority interest. During 1998, one of these properties was sold
by the Reckson Group to a third party. In addition, as of December 31, 1999, the
Company has acquired four of these properties for a aggregate  purchase price of
approximately $35 million,  which included the issuance of approximately 475,000
Units valued at approximately $8.8 million.

     The Operating  Partnership  and FrontLine have entered into an intercompany
agreement (the "Reckson Intercompany Agreement") to formalize their relationship
and to limit conflicts of interest.  Under the Reckson  Intercompany  Agreement,
FrontLine granted the Operating Partnership a right of first opportunity to make
any REIT -qualified investment that becomes available to FrontLine. In addition,
if a REIT-qualified  investment opportunity becomes available to an affiliate of
FrontLine,  including  RSVP, the Reckson  Intercompany  Agreement  requires such
affiliate to allow the Operating  Partnership to participate in such opportunity
to the extent of FrontLine's interest.

     Under the Reckson Intercompany Agreement, the Operating Partnership granted
FrontLine a right of first  opportunity  to provide  commercial  services to the
Operating  Partnership and its tenants.  FrontLine will provide  services to the
Operating  Partnership  at rates and on terms as  attractive  as either the best
available for comparable services in the market or those offered by FrontLine to
third parties. In addition, the Operating Partnership will give FrontLine access
to its tenants with respect to commercial  services that may be provided to such
tenants  and,  under the  Reckson  Intercompany  Agreement,  subject  to certain
conditions, the Operating Partnership granted FrontLine a right of first refusal
to become the lessee of any real property acquired by the Operating  Partnership
if the Operating  Partnership  determines  that,  consistent  with the Company's
status as a REIT, it is required to enter into a "master" lease agreement.

     On August 27, 1998 the Company  announced  the formation of a joint venture
with RSVP and the Dominion Group, an  Oklahoma-based,  privately-owned  group of
companies  that  focuses  on  the  development,  acquisition  and  ownership  of
government  occupied  office  buildings  and  correctional  facilities.  The new
venture,  Dominion Properties LLC (the "Dominion Venture"), is owned by Dominion
Venture Group LLC, and by a subsidiary of the Company.  The Dominion  Venture is
primarily  engaged in acquiring,  developing  and/or owning  government-occupied
office  buildings  and privately  operated  correctional  facilities.  Under the
Dominion Venture's  operating  agreement,  RSVP is to invest up to $100 million,
some of which may be invested by the Company ( the "RSVP Capital").  The initial
contribution   of  RSVP   Capital  was   approximately   $39  million  of  which
approximately  $10.1  million was invested by a subsidiary  of the Company.  The
Company's  investment was funded through the RSVP Commitment.  In addition,  the
Company  advanced  approximately  $2.9  million to  FrontLine  through  the RSVP
Commitment  for an investment in RSVP which was then invested on a joint venture
basis with the Dominion Group in certain service business  activities related to
the real estate  activities.  As of December 31, 1999,  the Company had invested
approximately  $17.6 million in the Dominion Venture which had investments in 13
government office buildings and three correctional facilities.

     During  1998,  the  Company  made  investments  in and  advances  to RMG of
approximately  $29.5 million.  Such investments and advances were used by RMG in
connection with RMG's acquisition of an approximate 64% ownership interest in an
executive office suite business.  Concurrently with RMG's investment,  FrontLine
received an option to purchase  RMG's interest at cost plus 8%. RMG is owned 97%
by the Company and 3% by an entity owned by certain officers of the Company.  On
November 9,

8. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS - (CONTINUED)

1998,  FrontLine exercised its option and, as a result, RMG earned income during
the period of  ownership  of  approximately  $707,000.  In  addition,  FrontLine
assumed the outstanding debt plus accrued interest owing to the Company.

     During July 1999,  the Company sold its  interest in a 852,000  square foot
development  property  to RCG in exchange  for a $12.3  million  note.  The note
accrues  interest  annually at the rate of 12%, has a five year  maturity and is
prepayable in whole or in part.  During  October 1999, RCG made a payment to the
Company,   in  the  form  of  97  shares  of  its  preferred  stock,  valued  at
approximately $4.0 million, towards accrued interest and principal due under the
note.

     In  1999  the  Company  invested  approximately  $7.2  million,  through  a
subsidiary, in RAP Student Housing Properties, LLC ("RAP - SHP"), a company that
engages  primarily in the  acquisition  and  development  of off-campus  student
housing  projects.   The  Company's  investment  was  funded  through  the  RSVP
Commitment.  In addition, the Company has advanced approximately $3.2 million to
FrontLine through the RSVP Commitment for an additional investment in RSVP which
was invested in certain service business  activities related to student housing.
As of December 31, 1999,  RAP - SHP had  investments  in 4 off -- campus student
housing projects.

9. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

     In accordance with FASB Statement No. 107, "Disclosures About Fair Value of
Financial  Instruments",  management  has  made  the  following  disclosures  of
estimated fair value at December 31, 1999 as required by FASB Statement No. 107.

     Cash  equivalents  and  variable  rate debt are  carried at  amounts  which
reasonably approximate their fair values.

     The fair value of the Company's  long term debt,  mortgage  notes and notes
receivable is estimated based on discounting future cash flows at interest rates
that  management  believes  reflects the risks  associated  with long term debt,
mortgage notes and notes  receivable of similar risk and duration.  In addition,
management  believes that the estimated aggregate fair value of these assets and
liabilities approximates their carrying values.

     Considerable  judgment is necessary  to  interpret  market data and develop
estimated fair value. The use of different market  assumptions and/or estimation
methodologies may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts.

10. RENTAL INCOME

     The  Properties  are being leased to tenants under  operating  leases.  The
minimum rental amount due under certain  leases are generally  either subject to
scheduled  fixed  increases  or indexed  escalations.  In  addition,  the leases
generally  also require that the tenants  reimburse the Company for increases in
certain operating costs and real estate taxes above base year costs.

     Included in base rents and tenant  escalations  and  reimbursements  in the
accompanying  statements of income are amounts from Reckson  Executive  Centers,
LLC, a service  business  of the Company  through  March 31, 1998 and, a related

11. SEGMENT DISCLOSURE

     The  Company's  portfolio  consists  of Class A office  properties  located
within  the New York City  metropolitan  area and Class A  suburban  office  and
industrial  properties located and operated within the Tri-State Area (the "Core
Portfolio").  In addition,  the  Company's  portfolio  also  includes one office
property located in Orlando,  Florida and for the period  commencing  January 6,
1998 and ending  September 26, 1999,  industrial  properties which were owned by
RMI.  The  Company  has  managing  directors  who report  directly  to the Chief
Operating  Officer and Chief  Financial  Officer who have been identified as the
Chief  Operating  Decision Makers because of their final authority over resource
allocation, decisions and performance assessment.

     In  addition,  as the  Company  expects  to meet its short  term  liquidity
requirements  in part  through  the  Credit  Facility  and Term  Loan,  interest
incurred on borrowings under the Credit Facility and Term Loan is not considered
as part of  property  operating  performance.  Further,  the  Company  does  not
consider the property  operating  performance of the office property  located in
Orlando, Florida as a part of its Core Portfolio.

     The accounting  policies of the  reportable  segments are the same as those
described in the summary of significant accounting policies.

                         RECKSON ASSOCIATES REALTY CORP.

                           AMENDED AND RESTATED BYLAWS

                                   ARTICLE I

                                    OFFICES

     Section 1. PRINCIPAL OFFICE.  The principal office of the Corporation shall
be located at such place or places as the Board of Directors may designate.

     Section 2. ADDITIONAL OFFICES.  The Corporation may have additional offices
at such places as the Board of Directors may from time to time  determine or the
business of the Corporation may require.

                                   ARTICLE II

                            MEETINGS OF STOCKHOLDERS

     Section  1.  PLACE.  All  meetings  of  stockholders  shall  be held at the
principal  office of the  Corporation  or at such other place  within the United
States as shall be stated in the notice of the meeting.

     Section 2. ANNUAL MEETING.  An annual meeting of the  stockholders  for the
election of directors and the  transaction of any business  within the powers of
the  Corporation  shall be held on a date  and at the  time set by the  Board of
Directors during the month of May in each year.

     Section 3. SPECIAL  MEETINGS.  The president,  chief  executive  officer or
Board of  Directors  may call  special  meetings  of the  stockholders.  Special
meetings  of  stockholders  shall  also  be  called  by  the  secretary  of  the
Corporation  upon the written  request of the holders of shares entitled to cast
not less than a majority of all the votes  entitled to be cast at such  meeting.
Such request shall state the purpose of such meeting and the matters proposed to
be acted on at such meeting. The secretary shall inform such stockholders of the
reasonably  estimated  cost of preparing and mailing  notice of the meeting and,
upon  payment  to the  Corporation  by  such  stockholders  of such  costs,  the
secretary  shall  give  notice  to each  stockholder  entitled  to notice of the
meeting. Unless requested by the stockholders entitled to cast a majority of all
the votes  entitled to be cast at such  meeting,  a special  meeting need not be
called to consider any matter which is substantially  the same as a matter voted
on at any special meeting of the  stockholders  held during the preceding twelve
months.

     Section  4.  NOTICE.  Not less than ten nor more than 90 days  before  each
meeting of stockholders,  the secretary shall give to each stockholder  entitled
to vote at such  meeting  and to each  stockholder  not  entitled to vote who is
entitled to notice of the meeting written or printed notice stating the time and
place of the meeting and, in the case of a special meeting or as

<PAGE>

otherwise  may be required by any statute,  the purpose for which the meeting is
called, either by mail or by presenting it to such stockholder  personally or by
leaving it at his residence or usual place of business.  If mailed,  such notice
shall be deemed to be given when  deposited in the United States mail  addressed
to the  stockholder  at his post office  address as it appears on the records of
the Corporation, with postage thereon prepaid.

     Section  5.  SCOPE  OF  NOTICE.  Any  business  of the  Corporation  may be
transacted  at an annual  meeting of  stockholders  without  being  specifically
designated in the notice,  except such business as is required by any statute to
be stated in such notice.  No business shall be transacted at a special  meeting
of stockholders except as specifically designated in the notice.

     Section 6. ORGANIZATION. At every meeting of stockholders,  the Chairman of
the Board, if there be one, shall conduct the meeting or, in the case of vacancy
in office or absence of the Chairman of the Board, one of the following officers
present shall conduct the meeting in the order stated:  the Vice Chairman of the
Board,  if there be one, the  President,  the Vice  Presidents in their order of
rank and seniority,  or a Chairman chosen by the stockholders entitled to cast a
majority of the votes which all  stockholders  present in person or by proxy are
entitled to cast, shall act as Chairman, and the Secretary,  or, in his absence,
an assistant  secretary,  or in the absence of both the  Secretary and assistant
secretaries, a person appointed by the Chairman shall act as Secretary.

     Section 7. QUORUM.  At any meeting of stockholders,  the presence in person
or by  proxy  of  stockholders  entitled  to cast a  majority  of all the  votes
entitled to be cast at such meeting shall constitute a quorum;  but this section
shall not  affect  any  requirement  under any  statute  or the  charter  of the
Corporation for the vote necessary for the adoption of any measure. If, however,
such  quorum  shall not be  present  at any  meeting  of the  stockholders,  the
stockholders  entitled to vote at such  meeting,  present in person or by proxy,
shall have the power to adjourn the meeting from time to time to a date not more
than 120  days  after  the  original  record  date  without  notice  other  than
announcement at the meeting.  At such adjourned  meeting at which a quorum shall
be present,  any business may be transacted  which might have been transacted at
the meeting as originally notified.

     Section  8.  VOTING.  A  plurality  of all the votes  cast at a meeting  of
stockholders duly called and at which a quorum is present shall be sufficient to
elect a director.  Each share may be voted for as many  individuals as there are
directors  to be elected  and for whose  election  the share is  entitled  to be
voted. A majority of the votes cast at a meeting of stockholders duly called and
at which a quorum is present  shall be  sufficient  to approve any other  matter
which may properly  come before the meeting,  unless more than a majority of the
votes cast is required by statute or by the charter of the  Corporation.  Unless
otherwise provided in the charter, each outstanding share,  regardless of class,
shall be entitled to one vote on each matter submitted to a vote at a meeting of
stockholders.

     Section 9.  PROXIES.  A  stockholder  may vote the stock owned of record by
him,  either in person or by proxy executed in writing by the  stockholder or by
his  duly  authorized  attorney  in fact.  Such  proxy  shall be filed  with the
secretary  of the  Corporation  before or at the time of the  meeting.  No proxy
shall be valid  after  eleven  months  from  the date of its  execution,  unless
otherwise provided in the proxy.

     Section 10. VOTING OF STOCK BY CERTAIN  HOLDERS.  Stock of the  Corporation
registered in the name of a corporation,  partnership, trust or other entity, if
entitled  to be voted,  may be voted by the  president  or a vice  president,  a
general partner or trustee thereof,  as the case may be, or a proxy appointed by
any of the  foregoing  individuals,  unless  some  other  person  who  has  been
appointed  to vote  such  stock  pursuant  to a  bylaw  or a  resolution  of the
governing body of such  corporation or other entity or agreement of the partners
of a  partnership  presents  a  certified  copy of  such  bylaw,  resolution  or
agreement,  in which case such person may vote such stock. Any director or other
fiduciary  may vote stock  registered in his name as such  fiduciary,  either in
person or by proxy.

     Shares of stock of the Corporation directly or indirectly owned by it shall
not be voted at any  meeting and shall not be counted in  determining  the total
number of outstanding shares entitled to be voted at any given time, unless they
are held by it in a  fiduciary  capacity,  in which  case  they may be voted and
shall be counted in determining  the total number of  outstanding  shares at any
given time.

     The Board of  Directors  may adopt by  resolution  a  procedure  by which a
stockholder may certify in writing to the  Corporation  that any shares of stock
registered  in the  name  of the  stockholder  are  held  for the  account  of a
specified person other than the stockholder.  The resolution shall set forth the
class of stockholders who may make the certification,  the purpose for which the
certification  may be made, the form of certification  and the information to be
contained  in it;  if the  certification  is with  respect  to a record  date or
closing of the stock transfer  books,  the time after the record date or closing
of the stock transfer books within which the  certification  must be received by
the  Corporation;  and any other  provisions with respect to the procedure which
the Board of  Directors  considers  necessary or  desirable.  On receipt of such
certification,  the person specified in the certification  shall be regarded as,
for the purposes set forth in the  certification,  the  stockholder of record of
the specified stock in place of the stockholder who makes the certification.

     Notwithstanding  any other  provision of the charter of the  Corporation or
these Bylaws,  Title 3, Subtitle 7 of the Corporations and Associations  Article
of the Annotated Code of Maryland (or any successor  statute) shall not apply to
any  acquisition  by any  person  of shares  of stock of the  Corporation.  This
section may be repealed,  in whole or in part,  at any time,  whether  before or
after an acquisition of control shares and, upon such repeal, may, to the extent
provided by any successor bylaw,  apply to any prior or subsequent control share
acquisition.

     Section 11. INSPECTORS. At any meeting of stockholders, the chairman of the
meeting may, or upon the request of any stockholder  shall,  appoint one or more
persons as inspectors  for such meeting.  Such  inspectors  shall  ascertain and
report  the  number  of shares  represented  at the  meeting  based  upon  their
determination of the validity and effect of proxies, count all votes, report the
results and perform  such other acts as are proper to conduct the  election  and
voting with impartiality and fairness to all the stockholders.

     Each report of an  inspector  shall be in writing and signed by him or by a
majority of them if there is more than one inspector acting at such meeting.  If
there is more than one  inspector,  the report of a majority shall be the report
of the inspectors. The report


                                       3
<PAGE>


of the  inspector  or  inspectors  on the  number of shares  represented  at the
meeting and the results of the voting shall be prima facie evidence thereof.

     Section 12. NOMINATIONS AND STOCKHOLDER BUSINESS

     (a) Annual  Meetings  of  Stockholders.  (1)  Nominations  of  persons  for
election to the Board of Directors and the proposal of business to be considered
by the  stockholders  (except for  stockholder  proposals  included in the proxy
materials  pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Securities  Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended (the "Exchange  Act")) may be made at an annual meeting of  stockholders
(i) pursuant to the Corporation's notice of meeting, (ii) by or at the direction
of the Board of Directors or (iii) by any stockholder of the Corporation who was
a  stockholder  of record at the time of giving of notice  provided  for in this
Section 12(a),  who is entitled to vote at the meeting and who complied with the
notice procedures set forth in this Section 12(a).

     (ii) (2) For nominations or other business to be properly brought before an
annual meeting by a stockholder  pursuant to clause (iii) of paragraph (a)(1) of
this  Section  12, the  stockholder  must have given  timely  notice  thereof in
writing to the  secretary  of the  Corporation.  To be timely,  a  stockholder's
notice shall be delivered to the secretary at the principal executive offices of
the  Corporation not less than 75 days nor more than 180 days prior to the first
anniversary of the preceding  year's annual  meeting or special  meeting in lieu
thereof;  provided,  however,  that in the  event  that the  date of the  annual
meeting is advanced by more than seven  calendar days or delayed by more than 60
days from such anniversary  date, notice by the stockholder to be timely must be
so delivered not earlier than the 180th day prior to such annual meeting and not
later  than the  close of  business  on the  later of the 75th day prior to such
annual  meeting or the  twentieth  day following the earlier of the day on which
public  announcement  of the date of such meeting is first made or notice of the
meeting is mailed to stockholders. Such stockholder's notice shall set forth (i)
as to each person whom the  stockholder  proposes  to nominate  for  election or
reelection  as a  director  all  information  relating  to such  person  that is
required to be disclosed in  solicitations of proxies for election of directors,
or is otherwise  required,  in each case  pursuant to  Regulation  14A under the
Exchange Act  (including  such  person's  written  consent to being named in the
proxy  statement as a nominee and to serving as a director if elected);  (ii) as
to any other business that the stockholder proposes to bring before the meeting,
a brief  description  of the business  desired to be brought before the meeting,
the  reasons for  conducting  such  business  at the  meeting  and any  material
interest in such business of such  stockholder  and of the beneficial  owner, if
any,  on whose  behalf the  proposal  is made;  and (iii) as to the  stockholder
giving  the  notice  and the  beneficial  owner,  if any,  on whose  behalf  the
nomination or proposal is made, (x) the name and address of such stockholder, as
they appear on the Corporation's books, and of such beneficial owner and (y) the
number  of  shares  of each  class of stock of the  Corporation  which are owned
beneficially and of record by such stockholder and such beneficial owner.

     (3) Notwithstanding  anything in the second sentence of paragraph (a)(2) of
this Section 12 to the contrary, in the event that the number of directors to be
elected  to  the  Board  of  Directors  is  increased  and  there  is no  public
announcement  naming all of the nominees for director or specifying  the size of
the increased  Board of Directors made by the Corporation at least 85 days prior
to the first anniversary of the preceding year's annual meeting,


                                       4
<PAGE>


a  stockholder's  notice required by this Section 12(a) shall also be considered
timely,  but only with respect to nominees for any new positions created by such
increase,  if it shall be delivered to the secretary at the principal  executive
offices of the Corporation not later than the close of business on the tenth day
following  the day on  which  such  public  announcement  is  first  made by the
Corporation.

     (b) Special Meetings of Stockholders. Only such business shall be conducted
at a special  meeting  of  stockholders  as shall have been  brought  before the
meeting pursuant to the Corporation's notice of meeting.  Nominations of persons
for  election  to the Board of  Directors  may be made at a special  meeting  of
stockholders  at  which  directors  are  to  be  elected  (i)  pursuant  to  the
Corporation's  notice of meeting,  (ii) by or at the  direction  of the Board of
Directors or (iii)  provided  that the Board of Directors  has  determined  that
directors  shall be elected at such special  meeting,  by any stockholder of the
Corporation  who is a  stockholder  of  record  at the time of  giving of notice
provided for in this Section  12(b),  who is entitled to vote at the meeting and
who complied with the notice  procedures set forth in this Section 12(b). In the
event the Corporation calls a special meeting of stockholders for the purpose of
electing one or more directors to the Board of Directors,  any such  stockholder
may  nominate  a person or  persons  (as the case may be) for  election  to such
position  as  specified  in  the  Corporation's   notice  of  meeting,   if  the
stockholder's  notice containing the information required by paragraph (a)(2) of
this Section 12 shall be delivered to the secretary at the  principal  executive
offices of the  Corporation not earlier than the 180th day prior to such special
meeting  and not later than the close of  business  on the later of the 75th day
prior to such special meeting or the tenth day following the day on which public

of the board if more than one), president or by a majority of the directors then
in office.  The person or persons  authorized  to call  special  meetings of the
Board of  Directors  may fix any place,  either  within or without  the State of
Maryland, as the place for holding any special meeting of the Board of Directors
called by them.

     Section 5. NOTICE.  Notice of any special meeting of the Board of Directors

least  five days  prior to the  meeting  and  shall be  deemed to be given  when
deposited in the United States mail  properly  addressed,  with postage  thereon

<PAGE>


adjourn the meeting  from time to time  without  further  notice,  and  provided

vote of a majority of a particular  group of directors is required for action, a
quorum must also include a majority of such group.

     The Board of Directors  present at a meeting which has been duly called and
convened may continue to transact  business until  adjournment,  notwithstanding
the withdrawal of enough directors to leave less than a quorum.

     Section 7. VOTING. The action of the majority of the directors present at a

Directors,  unless the concurrence of a greater  proportion is required for such
action by applicable statute.

means of a  conference  telephone  or similar  communications  equipment  if all
persons  participating  in the  meeting  can hear each  other at the same  time.

the meeting.

     Section 9. INFORMAL  ACTION BY DIRECTORS.  Any action required or permitted
to be taken at any  meeting  of the Board of  Directors  may be taken  without a
meeting,  if a consent in writing to such action is signed by each  director and
such written  consent is filed with the minutes of  proceedings  of the Board of
Directors.

     Section 10. VACANCIES.  If for any reason any or all the directors cease to
be directors,  such event shall not terminate  the  Corporation  or affect these
Bylaws or the powers of the remaining  directors  hereunder  (even if fewer than
three  directors  remain).  Any vacancy on the Board of Directors  for any cause
other than an increase in the number of directors  shall be filled by a majority
of the remaining  directors,  although such majority is less than a quorum.  Any
vacancy  in the number of  directors  created  by an  increase  in the number of
directors may be filled by a majority vote of the entire Board of Directors. Any
individual so elected as director  shall hold office for the  unexpired  term of
the director he is replacing.

their  services as directors  but, by resolution of the Board of Directors,  may
receive fixed sums per year and/or per meeting and/or per visit to real property
owned or to be acquired by the  Corporation and for any service or activity they
performed or engaged in as directors.  Directors may be reimbursed  for expenses
of attendance,  if any, at each annual,  regular or special meeting of the Board
of  Directors or of any  committee  thereof and for their  expenses,  if any, in
connection  with each  property  visit and any other  service or  activity  they
performed or engaged in as  directors;  but nothing  herein  contained  shall be
construed to preclude any directors  from serving the  Corporation  in any other
capacity and receiving compensation therefor.

     Section 12.  LOSS OF  DEPOSITS.  No  director  shall be liable for any loss
which may occur by reason of the failure of the bank, trust company, savings and
loan  association,  or other  institution  with whom  moneys or stock  have been
deposited.

interests and engage in business  activities  similar to or in addition to or in
competition with those of or relating to the Corporation.

of the members of the committee shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of
business at any meeting of the committee. The act of a majority of the committee
members  present at a meeting shall be the act of such  committee.  The Board of
Directors  may designate a chairman of any  committee,  and such chairman or any
two members of any  committee  may fix the time and place of its meeting  unless

absent member. Each committee shall keep minutes of its proceedings.

     Section  4.  TELEPHONE  MEETINGS.  Members of a  committee  of the Board of
Directors  may  participate  in a meeting by means of a conference  telephone or

member of the  committee  and such written  consent is filed with the minutes of
proceedings of such committee.

     Section  6.  VACANCIES.  Subject  to the  provisions  hereof,  the Board of

two or more offices except  president and vice president may be held by the same
person. In its discretion,  the Board of Directors may leave unfilled any office
except that of  president,  treasurer and  secretary.  Election of an officer or
agent shall not of itself create  contract  rights between the  Corporation  and
such officer or agent.

     Section 2. REMOVAL AND RESIGNATION. Any officer or agent of the Corporation
may be removed by the Board of Directors  if in its judgment the best  interests
of the Corporation  would be served  thereby,  but such removal shall be without
prejudice to the contract rights, if any, of the person so removed.  Any officer
of the  Corporation  may  resign  at any time by  giving  written  notice of his
resignation  to the  Board of  Directors,  the  chairman  of the  board  (or any
co-chairman of the board if more than one), the president or the secretary.  Any
resignation  shall  take  effect at any time  subsequent  to the time  specified
therein or, if the time when it shall become effective is not specified therein,
immediately  upon its receipt.  The  acceptance  of a  resignation  shall not be
necessary to make it effective unless otherwise stated in the resignation.  Such
resignation  shall be without  prejudice to the contract rights,  if any, of the
Corporation.

the policies of the  Corporation,  as determined by the Board of Directors,  and
for the management of the business and affairs of the Corporation.

chairman of the board (or one or more co-chairmen of the board). The chairman of
the board shall  preside over the meetings of the Board of Directors  and of the
stockholders  at which  he shall be  present.  If there be more  than  one,  the
co-chairmen  designated by the Board of Directors will perform such duties.  The
chairman of the board shall  perform such other duties as may be assigned to him
or them by the Board of Directors.

     Section 8.  CHAIRMAN OF THE BOARD  EMERITUS.  The  directors may elect by a
majority  vote,  from time to time, a chairman of the board  emeritus (or one or
more  co-chairmen  of the board  emeritus).  The chairman of the board  emeritus
shall be an honorary position and shall have no vote on any matter considered by
the  directors.  The chairman of the board emeritus shall serve for such term as
determined  by the Board of Directors  and may be removed by a majority  vote of
directors with or without cause.

     Section 9. PRESIDENT. The president or chief executive officer, as the case
may be, shall in general  supervise  and control all of the business and affairs
of the Corporation. In the absence of a designation of a chief operating officer
by the Board of Directors,  the president shall be the chief operating  officer.
He may execute any deed, mortgage, bond, contract or other instrument, except in
cases where the execution  thereof shall be expressly  delegated by the Board of
Directors or by these Bylaws to some other  officer or agent of the  Corporation
or shall be  required  by law to be  otherwise  executed;  and in general  shall
perform all duties  incident to the office of president and such other duties as
may be prescribed by the Board of Directors from time to time.

president;  and  shall  perform  such  other  duties as from time to time may be
assigned  to him by the  president  or by the Board of  Directors.  The Board of
Directors may designate one or more vice  presidents as executive vice president
or as vice president for particular areas of responsibility.

                      CONTRACTS, LOANS, CHECKS AND DEPOSITS

     Section 1.  CONTRACTS.  The Board of Directors may authorize any officer or
agent to enter into any contract or to execute and deliver any instrument in the
name of and on behalf


                                       11
<PAGE>


of the  Corporation  and such  authority  may be general or confined to specific

                                     STOCK

     Section  1.   CERTIFICATES.   Each  stockholder  shall  be  entitled  to  a
certificate  or  certificates  which shall  represent  and certify the number of
shares of each class of stock held by him in the  Corporation.  Each certificate
shall  be  signed  by the  chief  executive  officer,  the  president  or a vice
president and  countersigned  by the secretary or an assistant  secretary or the
treasurer or an assistant  treasurer and may be sealed with the seal, if any, of
the Corporation. The signatures may be either manual or facsimile.  Certificates
shall be  consecutively  numbered;  and if the Corporation  shall,  from time to
time, issue several classes of stock, each class may have its own number series.
A certificate is valid and may be issued whether or not an officer who signed it
is still an officer  when it is issued.  Each  certificate  representing  shares
which are restricted as to their  transferability  or voting  powers,  which are
preferred or limited as to their dividends or as to their  allocable  portion of
the  assets  upon  liquidation  or which  are  redeemable  at the  option of the
Corporation, shall have a statement of such restriction,  limitation, preference
or  redemption  provision,   or  a  summary  thereof,   plainly  stated  on  the
certificate.  If the  Corporation  has authority to issue stock of more than one
class,  the  certificate  shall contain on the face or back a full  statement or
summary of the designations  and any  preferences,  conversion and other rights,
voting   powers,   restrictions,   limitations   as  to   dividends   and  other
distributions,  qualifications  and terms and  conditions  of redemption of each
class of stock and, if the  Corporation  is authorized to issue any preferred or
special class in series,  the differences in the relative rights and preferences
between  the  shares  of each  series to the  extent  they have been set and the
authority of the Board of Directors to set the relative  rights and  preferences
of subsequent series. In lieu of such statement or summary,  the certificate may
state that the Corporation  will furnish a full statement of such information to
any  stockholder  upon  request  and  without  charge.  If any class of stock is
restricted by the  Corporation  as to  transferability,  the  certificate  shall
contain a full statement of the restriction or state that the  Corporation  will
furnish  information  about the  restrictions  to the stockholder on request and
without charge.

     Section 2.  TRANSFERS.  Upon  surrender to the  Corporation or the transfer
agent of the Corporation of a stock  certificate duly endorsed or accompanied by
proper evidence of


                                       12
<PAGE>


succession,  assignment or authority to transfer,  the Corporation shall issue a
new certificate to the person entitled  thereto,  cancel the old certificate and
record the transaction upon its books.

     The  Corporation  shall be  entitled  to treat the  holder of record of any
share of stock as the  holder in fact  thereof  and,  accordingly,  shall not be
bound to recognize  any equitable or other claim to or interest in such share or
on the part of any other  person,  whether or not it shall have express or other
notice  thereof,  except  as  otherwise  provided  by the  laws of the  State of
Maryland.

     Notwithstanding  the  foregoing,  transfers of shares of any class of stock
will be subject in all respects to the charter of the Corporation and all of the
terms and conditions contained therein.

     Section 3. REPLACEMENT CERTIFICATE.  Any officer designated by the Board of
Directors may direct a new  certificate to be issued in place of any certificate
previously  issued  by the  Corporation  alleged  to have been  lost,  stolen or
destroyed  upon the making of an affidavit  of that fact by the person  claiming
the certificate to be lost,  stolen or destroyed.  When authorizing the issuance
of a new  certificate,  an officer  designated by the Board of Directors may, in
his discretion and as a condition precedent to the issuance thereof, require the
owner of such  lost,  stolen  or  destroyed  certificate  or the  owner's  legal
representative  to advertise the same in such manner as he shall require  and/or
to give bond, with sufficient surety, to the Corporation to indemnify it against
any  loss or  claim  which  may  arise  as a  result  of the  issuance  of a new
certificate.

     Section 4. CLOSING OF TRANSFER BOOKS OR FIXING OF RECORD DATE. The Board of
Directors  may set,  in advance,  a record  date for the purpose of  determining
stockholders  entitled to notice of or to vote at any meeting of stockholders or
determining  stockholders  entitled  to receive  payment of any  dividend or the
allotment  of  any  other  rights,  or in  order  to  make  a  determination  of
stockholders for any other proper purpose.  Such date, in any case, shall not be
prior to the close of  business on the day the record date is fixed and shall be
not more than 90 days and,  in the case of a meeting of  stockholders,  not less
than ten  days,  before  the date on which  the  meeting  or  particular  action
requiring such determination of stockholders of record is to be held or taken.

     In lieu of fixing a record date,  the Board of  Directors  may provide that
the stock transfer books shall be closed for a stated period but not longer than
20 days. If the stock  transfer  books are closed for the purpose of determining
stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of stockholders, such
books shall be closed for at least ten days before the date of such meeting.

     If no record date is fixed and the stock  transfer books are not closed for
the determination of stockholders,  (a) the record date for the determination of
stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of stockholders shall
be at the close of  business on the day on which the notice of meeting is mailed
or the 30th day before the meeting, whichever is the closer date to the meeting;
and (b) the  record  date for the  determination  of  stockholders  entitled  to
receive payment of a dividend or an allotment of any other rights shall be


                                       13

custody thereof.

     Section 2. AFFIXING SEAL. Whenever the Corporation is permitted or required
to affix its seal to a document, it shall be sufficient to meet the requirements
of any law,  rule or  regulation  relating to a seal to place the word  "(SEAL)"

                                  ARTICLE XII

reimburse reasonable expenses in advance of final disposition of a proceeding to
(a) any  individual  who is a  present  or former  director  or  officer  of the

inconsistent with this Article,


                                       15

shall  apply to or affect in any  respect  the  applicability  of the  preceding

Corporation  or these Bylaws or pursuant to applicable  law, a waiver thereof in
writing, signed by the person or persons entitled to such notice, whether before

such  notice.  Neither the business to be  transacted  at nor the purpose of any
meeting need be set forth in the waiver of notice,  unless specifically required
by statute.  The  attendance  of any person at any meeting  shall  constitute  a

                         RECKSON ASSOCIATES REALTY CORP.

                             ARTICLES SUPPLEMENTARY

                     ESTABLISHING AND FIXING THE RIGHTS AND
                PREFERENCES OF A CLASS OF SHARES OF COMMON STOCK



     Reckson   Associates   Realty   Corp.,   a   Maryland    corporation   (the
"Corporation"), certifies to the State Department of Assessments and Taxation of
Maryland that:

     FIRST: Pursuant to the authority expressly vested in the board of directors
of the Corporation  (the "Board of Directors") by Article VI of its charter,  as
heretofore  amended and restated (which,  as hereafter  restated or amended from
time to time, are together with these Articles  Supplementary  herein called the
"Articles"),  the Board of Directors  has, by  resolution,  duly  designated and
reclassified  12,000,000  shares of the common stock of the  Corporation  into a
class  designated  Class B  Exchangeable  Common  Stock and has provided for the
issuance of such class.

     SECOND: The preferences,  rights, voting powers, restrictions,  limitations
as to  distributions,  qualifications  and terms and conditions of redemption of
the shares of such class of common  stock,  which  upon any  restatement  of the
Articles  shall  be  included  as part of  Article  VI of the  Articles,  are as
follows:

                        CLASS B EXCHANGEABLE COMMON STOCK

     1.  Designation  and Number.  A class of Common  Stock of the  Corporation,
designated  the "Class B Exchangeable  Common Stock" (the "Class B Common"),  is
hereby  established.  The  number  of  shares  of the  Class B  Common  shall be
12,000,000.

     2. Distributions.

     (a) For any quarterly period, holders of the shares of Class B Common shall
be entitled to receive, if, when and as authorized by the Board of Directors out
of funds legally available for the payment of distributions,  cash distributions
in an amount per share equal to the Class B Dividend  Amount.  Distributions  on
the Class B Common,  if  authorized,  shall be payable  quarterly  in arrears on
January 31,  April 30, July 31 and October 31 of each year or, if not a Business
Day,  the next  succeeding  Business  Day,  commencing  July 31, 1999  (each,  a
"Distribution Payment Date"). Distributions will be payable to holders of record
as they appear in the stock transfer  records of the Corporation at the close of
business on the applicable  record date,  which shall be such date designated by
the Board of Directors of the Corporation for the payment of distributions  that
is not more than 30 nor less  than 10 days  prior to such  Distribution  Payment
Date (each, a "Distribution Payment Record Date").

     (b) No distributions on the Class B Common shall be authorized by the Board
of  Directors  of the  Corporation  or be paid or set apart for  payment  by the
Corporation at such


<PAGE>

time as the terms and provisions of any agreement of the Corporation,  including
any  agreement  relating  to its  indebtedness,  prohibits  such  authorization,
payment  or  setting  apart for  payment or  provides  that such  authorization,
payment or setting  apart for payment  would  constitute  a breach  thereof or a
default  thereunder,  or if such authorization or payment shall be restricted or
prohibited by law.

     (c) Distributions on the Class B Common will be noncumulative. If the Board
of Directors  of the  Corporation  does not  authorize a dividend on the Class B
Common  payable  on any  Distribution  Payment  Date while any Class B Common is
outstanding,  then holders of the Class B Common will have no right to receive a
distribution for that  Distribution  Payment Date, and the Corporation will have
no obligation to pay a distribution for that Distribution  Payment Date, whether
or not distributions are declared and paid for any future  Distribution  Payment
Date with respect to either the Common  Stock,  the preferred  stock,  par value
$0.01 per share, of the Corporation or any other Capital Stock.

     (d) No  distributions,  whether in cash,  securities  or property,  will be
authorized  or paid or set apart for payment to holders of Common  Stock for any
quarterly  period  unless  for  each  share of  Class B  Common  outstanding,  a
distribution  equal to the Class B Dividend  Amount with  respect to such period
has been or  contemporaneously  is authorized  and paid or authorized  and a sum
sufficient  for the payment  thereof is set apart for such payment to holders of
the Class B Common for the then current distribution period. No interest, or sum
of money in lieu of  interest,  shall be payable in respect of any  distribution
payment or payments on Class B Common which may be in arrears.

     (e)  Subject to the rights and  preferences  of other  classes or series of
Capital Stock,  the  Corporation,  at its election and as determined in the sole
discretion of the Board of Directors of the Corporation, may authorize and pay a
distribution  to  holders  of Class B Common in  excess of the Class B  Dividend
Amount.

     (f)  Shares of Class B Common  shall not  entitle  the  holders  thereof to
receive any distribution made in respect of Common Stock.

     3. Liquidation.

     Upon any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of
the affairs of the  Corporation  (referred  to herein as a  "liquidation"),  the
holders of the Class B Common will have no liquidation  preference,  but will be
entitled to share ratably  (treating each Class B Common share as the equivalent
of that number of shares of Common Stock into which it may then be exchanged) in
any distribution or payment made to holders of Common Stock.

     4. Redemption.

     Shares of Class B Common will not be redeemable;  provided,  however,  that
the foregoing shall not prohibit the  Corporation  from  repurchasing  shares of
Class B Common from any holder if and to the extent  such holder  agrees to sell
such shares.

     5. Voting Rights.

     Holders  of Class B Common  shall  have  the  right to vote on all  matters
submitted  to a vote of the holders of Common  Stock;  holders of Class B Common
and Common  Stock  shall vote  together  as a single  class.  In  addition,  the
affirmative vote or consent of the Holders of at least


                                       2
<PAGE>


two-thirds of the  outstanding  shares of Class B Common,  given in person or by
proxy, either in writing or at a meeting, voting separately as a class, shall be
required to amend,  alter or repeal  these  Articles  Supplementary,  whether by
merger,  consolidation  or  otherwise  (an  "Event"),  so as to  materially  and
adversely affect any right, preference, privilege or voting power of the Class B
Common or the Holders thereof; provided, however, with respect to the occurrence
of any of the Events  referred to above,  so long as the Class B Common  remains
outstanding  with the terms thereof  materially  unchanged,  taking into account
that upon the occurrence of an Event,  the  Corporation may not be the surviving
entity,  the  occurrence of any such Event shall not be deemed to materially and
adversely affect such rights, preferences, privileges or voting power of Holders
of Class B Common.  In any such  vote,  each  holder of Class B Common  shall be
entitled  to one vote with  respect to each share of Class B Common held by such
holder.

     6. Exchange at Holder's Election.


     (a) Subject to Section 10, shares of Class B Common will be exchangeable at
any time, at the option of the holders  thereof,  into Common Stock at a rate of
one share of Common Stock per share of Class B Common,  subject to adjustment as
described below (the "Exchange Rate");  provided,  however,  that the right of a
holder to exchange shares of Class B Common for which the Corporation has mailed
an Exchange Notice (as defined below) will terminate at the close of business on
the fifth Business Day prior to the Exchange Date (as defined below).

     (b) To  exercise  the  exchange  right,  the holder of Class B Common to be
exchanged shall surrender the certificate representing such Class B Common, duly
endorsed or assigned to the Corporation or in blank, at the principal  office of
the Transfer Agent  accompanied by written notice to the  Corporation  that such
holder  elects to exchange  such Class B Common.  Unless the shares  issuable on
exchange  are to be issued in the same  name as the name in which  such  Class B
Common is  registered,  in which case the  Corporation  shall  bear the  related
taxes,  each share  surrendered for exchange shall be accompanied by instruments
of transfer,  in form  satisfactory  to the  Corporation,  duly  executed by the
holder or such holder's duly authorized attorney and an amount sufficient to pay
any  transfer  or  similar  tax  (or  evidence  reasonably  satisfactory  to the
Corporation demonstrating that such taxes have been paid).

     (c) Each exchange consummated pursuant to this Section 6 shall be deemed to
have been  effected  immediately  prior to the close of  business on the date on
which the  certificates  representing  shares of Class B Common  shall have been
surrendered  and such notice (and if  applicable,  payment of an amount equal to
the  distribution  payable  on  such  shares)  received  by the  Corporation  as
aforesaid,  and the person or persons in whose name or names any  certificate or
certificates  representing  shares of Common  Stock shall be issuable  upon such
exchange  shall be deemed to have  become the holder or holders of record of the
shares represented thereby at such time on such date, and such exchange shall be
at the  Exchange  Rate in effect at such time and on such date  unless the stock
transfer records of the Corporation shall be closed on that date, in which event
such person or persons  shall be deemed to have become such holder or holders of
record at the close of business on the next  succeeding  day on which such stock
transfer  records are open,  but such exchange  shall be at the Exchange Rate in
effect on the date on which such  shares have been  surrendered  and such notice
received by the Corporation.



                                       3
<PAGE>


     (d)  Holders  of shares of Class B Common  at the  close of  business  on a
Distribution  Payment  Record  Date shall be  entitled to receive and retain the
distribution  payable on such shares on the corresponding  Distribution  Payment
Date  notwithstanding  the exchange of such shares  following such  Distribution
Payment Record Date and on or prior to such Distribution Payment Date. Except as
provided above,  the  Corporation  shall make no payment or allowance for unpaid
distributions,   whether  or  not  in  arrears,   on  exchanged  shares  or  for
distribution on the Common Stock that is issued upon such exchange.

     As promptly as practicable after the surrender of certificates representing
Class B Common as aforesaid,  the  Corporation  shall issue and shall deliver at
such  office  to  such  holder,  or on  his  written  order,  a  certificate  or
certificates  for the number of full shares of Common  Stock  issuable  upon the
exchange of such shares in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6, and
any fractional  interest in respect of a share of Common Stock arising upon such
conversion shall be settled as provided in Section 8.

     7. Exchange at Corporation's Option.


     (a) The Class B Common shall not be exchangeable  by the Corporation  prior
to the end of the  54-month  period  commencing  with  the  Class B Issue  Date.
Subject to Section  10,  each share of Class B Common (and each share of Class B
Excess  Common (as defined  below)) will be  exchangeable  at any time after the
fifty-four  (54) month period  immediately  following the Class B Issue Date, at
the option of the Corporation,  into Common Stock at the Exchange Rate, plus the
amounts  indicated in Section 7(e). If fewer than all of the outstanding  shares
of Class B Common  are to be  exchanged,  the  shares to be  exchanged  shall be
determined pro rata or by lot or in such other manner as prescribed by the Board
of Directors of the Corporation to be equitable. If fewer than all the shares of
Class  B  Common  represented  by  any  certificate  are  exchanged,   then  new
certificates  representing the unredeemed shares shall be issued without cost to
the holder thereof.

     (b) At least 30 days,  but no more than 60 days,  prior to a date fixed for
exchange  of  some  or all of the  Class  B  Common  (the  "Exchange  Date")  in
accordance with this Section 7, written notice (the "Exchange  Notice") shall be
given by first class mail, to each holder of record on a date no more than three
business days prior to the mailing date of such notice at such holder's  address
as it  appears  in the stock  transfer  records  of the  Corporation;  provided,
however,  neither  failure to give such notice nor any deficiency  therein shall
affect the  validity of the  procedure  for the exchange of any share of Class B
Common  to be  exchanged.  The  Exchange  Notice  shall  include  the  following
information:

     (i) the Exchange Rate;

     (ii) the number of shares of Class B Common to be  exchanged  and, if fewer
than all the shares held by such holders are to be exchanged, the number of such
shares to be exchanged from such holder;

     (iii) the Exchange Date;

     (iv) the manner in which the holder is to surrender to the  Corporation  or
the Transfer Agent,  the certificate or certificates  representing the shares of
Class B Common to be exchanged;



                                       4
<PAGE>


     (v) that the  holder's  right to elect to exchange  such  holder's  Class B
Common for Common Stock will  terminate  on the fifth  Business Day prior to the
Exchange Date; and

     (vi) that  dividends on the shares of Class B Common to be exchanged  shall
cease on the Exchange  Date unless the  Corporation  defaults in the issuance of
the Common Stock issuable upon exchange of such Class B Common.

     (c)  Each  holder  shall   surrender  the   certificate   or   certificates
representing  such shares of Class B Common so exchanged to the  Corporation  or
the Transfer Agent, duly endorsed (or otherwise in proper form for transfer,  as
determined by the Corporation), in the manner and at the place designated in the
Exchange  Notice,  and on the Exchange  Date the number of full shares of Common
Stock  issuable  upon the  exchange  of such  shares of Class B Common  shall be
payable to the holder whose name appears on such  certificate or certificates as
the owner  thereof,  and each  surrendered  certificate  shall be  canceled  and
retired.

     (d) On or after the Exchange Date,  unless the Corporation  defaults in the
issuance of the shares of Common Stock as described above and except as provided
in  Section  7(e),  (i) all  distributions  on any Class B Common so called  for
exchange shall cease on the Exchange Date, and all rights of the holders of such
shares of Class B Common  as  holders  of Class B Common  shall  terminate  with
respect thereto on the Exchange Date, other than the right to receive the shares
of Common  Stock  issuable  upon  exchange  thereof,  (ii) the shares of Class B
Common called for exchange will not be  transferred  (except with the consent of
the Corporation) on the  Corporation's  stock transfer  records,  and (iii) such
shares shall no longer be deemed outstanding for any purpose  whatsoever.  Until
shares of Class B Common Stock called for exchange are surrendered in the manner
described  in the Exchange  Notice,  no shares of Common Stock will be issued in
respect thereof.  No provision will be made in respect of distributions  payable
on such Common Stock prior to the Exchange Date.

     (e) If the Exchange Date falls after a Distribution Payment Record Date and
on or prior to the corresponding  Distribution Payment Date, then each holder of
Class B Common at the close of business on such Distribution Payment Record Date
shall  be  entitled  to  the   distribution   payable  on  such  shares  on  the
corresponding  Distribution  Payment Date  notwithstanding  the exchange of such
shares prior to such Distribution Payment Date.

     (f)  Following  the  Exchange   Date,   the   Corporation   shall  pay  all
distributions payable on the Common Stock to be exchanged for the Class B Common
with  a  record  date  for  such   distribution   following  the  Exchange  Date
notwithstanding the exchange of certificates representing such shares after such
the Distribution Payment Record Date.

     8. No Fractional Shares.

     No fractional shares of Common Stock shall be issued upon exchange of Class
B Common.  Instead of any fractional  share of Common Stock that would otherwise
be deliverable  upon the exchange of a share of Class B Common,  the Corporation
shall pay to the  holder of such  share an  amount  in cash in  respect  of such
fractional  interest  based upon the Current  Market  Price of a share of Common
Stock on the Trading Day  immediately  preceding  the date of exchange.  If more
than one share of Class B Common shall be  surrendered  for exchange at one time
by the same  holder,  the number of full shares of Common  Stock  issuable  upon
exchange


                                       5
<PAGE>


thereof  shall be  computed  on the basis of the  aggregate  number of shares of
Class B Common so surrendered.

     9. Exchange Rate Adjustments.

     (a) The Exchange Rate shall be adjusted from time to time as follows:

     (i) If the  Corporation  shall  after  the date on which  shares of Class B
Common  are  first  issued  (the  "Class  B  Issue  Date")  (A)  pay  or  make a
distribution  to  holders  of  Common  Stock in the form of  Common  Stock,  (B)
subdivide  its  outstanding  Common Stock into a greater  number of shares,  (C)
combine  its  outstanding  Common  Stock into a smaller  number of shares or (D)
issue any equity securities by  reclassification of its Common Stock (other than
any  reclassification by way of merger or binding share exchange that is subject
to Section 9(b)), then the Exchange Rate in effect at the opening of business on
the day following the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled
to receive such  distribution or at the opening of business on the day following
the day on which  such  subdivision,  combination  or  reclassification  becomes
effective, as the case may be, shall be adjusted so that the holder of any share
of Class B Common  thereafter  surrendered  for  exchange  shall be  entitled to
receive the number of shares of Common Stock and other equity  securities issued
by  reclassification  of Common  Stock that such holder would have owned or have
been  entitled to receive  after the  happening  of any of the events  described
above had such shares been exchanged immediately prior to the record date in the
case of a  distribution  or the  effective  date in the  case of a  subdivision,
combination   or   reclassification.   An  adjustment   made  pursuant  to  this
subparagraph  (i)  shall  become  effective  immediately  after the  opening  of
business on the day  following  such record date  (except as provided in Section
9(e)) in the case of a distribution and shall become effective immediately after
the opening of business on the day next following the effective date in the case
of a subdivision, combination or reclassification.

     (ii) If the  Corporation  shall issue after the Class B Issue Date  rights,
options or warrants to all holders of Common Stock  entitling them (for a period
expiring within 45 days after the record date for  determination of stockholders
entitled to receive  such  rights,  options or  warrants)  to  subscribe  for or
purchase shares of Common Stock (or securities  convertible into or exchangeable
for Common Stock) at a price per share less than the Fair Market Value per share
of  Common  Stock on the  record  date  for the  determination  of  stockholders
entitled to receive such rights, options or warrants,  then the Exchange Rate in
effect at the opening of business on the day following such record date shall be
adjusted to equal the amount  determined by multiplying (I) the Exchange Rate in
effect  immediately  prior to the opening of business on the day  following  the
record date fixed for such  determination  by (II) a fraction,  the numerator of
which shall be the sum of (A) the number of shares of Common  Stock  outstanding
on the close of business on the record date fixed for such determination and (B)
the number of  additional  shares of Common Stock  offered for  subscription  or
purchase  pursuant to such rights,  options or warrants and the  denominator  of
which shall be the sum of (A) the number of shares of Common  Stock  outstanding
on the close of business on the record date fixed for such determination and (B)
the number of shares that the  aggregate  proceeds to the  Corporation  from the
exercise of such rights,  options or warrants for Common Stock would purchase at
such Fair Market Value. Such adjustment shall become effective immediately after
the  opening of  business  on the day  following  such  record  date  (except as
provided  in Section  9(e)).  In  determining  whether  any  rights,  options or
warrants entitle the holders of Common Stock to


                                       6

subscribe for or purchase Common Stock at less than the Fair Market Value, there
shall be taken into account any  consideration  received by the Corporation upon
issuance and upon exercise of such rights,  options or warrants,  with the value
of such  consideration,  if other than cash,  to be  determined  by the Board of
Directors of the Corporation.

     (iii) If the  Corporation  shall  distribute  to all  holders of its Common
Stock any equity  securities  of the  Corporation  (other than Common  Stock) or
evidences of its indebtedness or assets (excluding cash  distributions and those
rights,  options and warrants referred to in and treated under subparagraph (ii)
above),  then the  Exchange  Rate shall be  adjusted  so that it shall equal the
amount  determined by  multiplying  (I) the Exchange Rate in effect  immediately
prior to the close of business on the record date fixed for the determination of
stockholders  entitled to receive  such  distribution  by (II) a  fraction,  the
numerator  of which shall be the Fair Market  Value per share of Common Stock on
the record date for such determination and the denominator of which shall be the
Fair  Market  Value  per  share  of  Common  Stock on the  record  date for such
determination  less the then fair market  value (as  determined  by the Board of
Directors of the Corporation,  whose  determination  shall be conclusive) of the
portion  of the  equity  securities,  evidences  of  indebtedness  or  assets so
distributed  applicable  to one share of Common  Stock.  Such  adjustment  shall
become  effective  immediately  at the opening of business on the day  following
such record date (except as provided in Section 9(e)).  For the purposes of this
subparagraph  (iii),  the  distribution  of  equity  securities,   evidences  of
indebtedness  or assets which are  distributed not only to the holders of Common
Stock on the record date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to
such  distribution,  but also are  distributed  with each share of Common  Stock
delivered  to a person  exchanging  a share of Class B Common at any time  after
such record date,  shall not require an adjustment of the Exchange Rate pursuant
to this subparagraph (iii), provided that on the date, if any, on which a person
exchanging a share of Class B Common would no longer be entitled to receive such
equity  securities,  evidences of  indebtedness or assets with a share of Common
Stock (other than as a result of the termination of all such equity  securities,
evidences of indebtedness or assets),  a distribution of such equity securities,
evidences of  indebtedness  or assets shall be deemed to have occurred,  and the
Exchange Rate shall be adjusted as provided in this subparagraph (iii) (and such
day shall be deemed to be "the  record date fixed for the  determination  of the
stockholders entitled to receive such distribution" and the "record date" within
the meaning of the two preceding sentences).

     (iv)  The  Exchange  Rate  may be  further  adjusted  from  time to time as
described in this subparagraph (iv); provided,  however,  that the Exchange Rate
as so adjusted  shall only be applicable in the event that the exchange of Class
B Common is effected  pursuant to Section 6 and then,  only to shares of Class B
Common  surrendered  for  exchange in  accordance  with  Section  6(b);  and all
adjustments  described in this  subparagraph  (iv) shall be  disregarded  in the
event of any  exchange  pursuant  to Section  7. If during  any two  consecutive
quarters,  the total  distributions  paid on a share of Class B Common  for each
such quarter and the immediately prior quarter is less than the sum of (x) 1/4th
of the Unadjusted Class B Dividend Amount applicable to the current quarter plus
(y)  1/4th  of  the  Unadjusted  Class  B  Dividend  Amount  applicable  to  the
immediately prior quarter, then the Exchange Rate thereafter shall be subject to
adjustment as follows.  If at the time the exchange option is exercised pursuant
to Section 6:

     (A) the Exchange  Consideration  Amount is equal to or greater than $27.50,
then no additional adjustment is required;



                                       7
<PAGE>

     (B) the Exchange  Consideration Amount is less than $27.50, but equal to or
greater than $22.00,  then the Exchange  Rate will be multiplied by the quotient
of (I) $27.50 divided by (II) the Exchange Consideration Amount; and

     (C) the  Exchange  Consideration  Amount  is less  than  $22.00,  then  the
Exchange Rate will be multiplied by 1.25.

     (v) No  adjustment  in the  Exchange  Rate shall be required  other than by
reason of Section  9(a)(iv)  unless such  adjustment  would require a cumulative
increase or decrease of at least 1% in the  Exchange  Rate;  provided,  however,
that any adjustments that by reason of this subparagraph (v) are not required to
be made  shall be carried  forward  and taken  into  account  in any  subsequent
adjustment  until made;  and provided,  further,  that any  adjustment  shall be
required and made in  accordance  with the  provisions  of this Section 9 (other
than this subparagraph (v)) not later than such time as may be required in order
to  preserve  the  tax-free  nature of a  distribution  to the holders of Common
Stock.  Notwithstanding  any other provisions of this Section 9, the Corporation
shall  not be  required  to make any  adjustment  of the  Exchange  Rate for the
issuance of any Common Stock pursuant to any plan providing for the reinvestment
of  distributions  or interest  payable on securities of the Corporation and the
investment of additional  optional  amounts in Common Stock under such plan. All
calculations  under this Section 9 shall be made to the nearest cent (with $.005
being  rounded  upward) or to the  nearest  one-tenth  of a share (with .05 of a
share being rounded upward), as the case may be. Anything in this subsection (a)
to the contrary  notwithstanding,  the  Corporation  shall be  entitled,  to the
extent  permitted  by law,  to make such  increases  in the  Exchange  Rate,  in
addition to those required by this subsection (a), as it in its discretion shall
determine to be advisable  in order that any share  distributions,  subdivision,
reclassification  or combination of shares,  distribution of rights,  options or
warrants to purchase  shares or securities,  or a  distribution  of other assets
(other  than  cash  distributions)  hereafter  made  by the  Corporation  to its
stockholders shall not be taxable.

     (b) Except as otherwise provided for in Section 9(a)(i), if the Corporation
shall be a party to any transaction  (including,  without limitation,  a merger,
consolidation,  statutory share exchange,  tender offer for all or substantially
all of the Common  Stock,  sale or transfer of all or  substantially  all of the
Corporation's  assets or  recapitalization  of the  Common  Stock)  (each of the
foregoing being referred to herein as a "Transaction"), in each case as a result
of which  Common  Stock  shall be  converted  into the right to receive  shares,
stock, securities or other property (including cash or any combination thereof),
the Corporation (or its successor in such  Transaction)  shall make  appropriate
provision so that each share of Class B Common,  if not converted into the right
to receive shares,  stock,  securities or other property in connection with such
Transaction in accordance with the third to last sentence of this subsection (b)
shall  thereafter  be  exchangeable  into the kind and amount of shares,  stock,
securities  and  other  property  (including  cash or any  combination  thereof)
receivable upon the  consummation of such Transaction by a holder of that number
of shares of Common Stock into which one share of Class B Common was convertible
immediately prior to such Transaction,  assuming such holder of Common Stock (i)
is not a Person  with  which  the  Corporation  consolidated  or into  which the
Corporation merged or which merged into the Corporation or to which such sale or
transfer was made, as the case may be (a "Constituent  Person"), or an affiliate
of a Constituent  Person and (ii) failed to exercise his rights of the election,
if any, as to the kind or amount of shares, stock,


                                       8
<PAGE>


securities  and  other  property  (including  cash or any  combination  thereof)
receivable upon such Transaction  (each, a "Non-Electing  Share") (provided that
if the  kind  and  amount  of  shares,  stock,  securities  and  other  property
(including cash or any combination thereof) receivable upon consummation of such
Transaction is not the same for each Non-Electing  Share, the kind and amount of
shares, stock,  securities and other property (including cash or any combination
thereof)  receivable upon such Transaction by each  Non-Electing  Share shall be
deemed to be the kind and amount so  receivable  per share by a plurality of the
Non-Electing Shares). The Corporation shall not be a party to any Transaction in
which any share of Class B Common is converted into the right to receive shares,
stock,  securities or other property (including cash or any combination thereof)
with an aggregate  value (as determined by the Board of Directors in good faith,
whose determination shall be conclusive) less than that receivable by the number
of shares of Common Stock into which shares of Class B Common were  exchangeable
immediately prior to such  Transaction.  The Corporation shall not be a party to
any  Transaction  unless the terms of such  Transaction  are consistent with the
provisions  of this  subsection  (b),  and it shall not  consent or agree to the
occurrence  of any  Transaction  until  the  Corporation  has  entered  into  an
agreement with the successor or purchasing  entity,  as the case may be, for the
benefit  of the  holders  of the  Class B Common  that will  contain  provisions
enabling  holders  of  Class  B  Common  that  remains  outstanding  after  such
Transaction to exchange their Class B Common into the consideration  received by
holders of Common Stock at the Exchange Rate in effect immediately prior to such
Transaction.  The  provisions of this  subsection (b) shall  similarly  apply to
successive Transactions.

     (c) If:

     (i) the Corporation shall declare a distribution on the Common Stock (other
than cash  distributions  which do not  constitute  extraordinary  dividends) or
there shall be a  reclassification,  subdivision  or  combination  of the Common
Stock; or

     (ii) the  Corporation  shall  grant to the  holders of the Common  Stock of
rights,  options or warrants to subscribe  for or purchase  Common Stock at less
than Fair Market Value; or

     (iii) the Corporation shall enter into a Transaction; or

     (iv)  there  shall  occur  the   voluntary  or   involuntary   liquidation,
dissolution or winding up of the Corporation; or

     (v) there  shall occur the  circumstances  described  in clause  (a)(iv) of
Section 9 that would cause the Exchange Rate to be adjusted,

then the  Corporation  shall cause to be filed with the Transfer Agent and shall
cause to be mailed to the  holders of the Class B Common at their  addresses  as
shown on the stock transfer records of the Corporation, as promptly as possible,
but at least 15 days  prior to the  applicable  date  hereinafter  specified,  a
notice  stating (i) the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of
such distribution or rights,  options or warrants,  or, if a record is not to be
taken, the date as of which the holders of Common Stock of record to be entitled
to such distribution or rights, options or warrants are to be determined or (ii)
the date on which such reclassification,  subdivision,  combination, Transaction
or liquidation,  dissolution or winding up is expected to become effective,  and
the date as of which it is expected that holders of Common Stock of record


                                       9
<PAGE>


shall be  entitled  to  exchange  their  Common  Stock for  securities  or other
property,   if  any,  deliverable  upon  such   reclassification,   subdivision,
combination,  Transaction or liquidation,  dissolution or winding up. Failure to
give or receive such notice or any defect  therein shall not affect the legality
or validity of the proceedings described in this Section 9.

     (d)  Whenever  the  Exchange  Rate is  adjusted  as  herein  provided,  the
Corporation shall promptly file with the Transfer Agent an officer's certificate
setting forth the Exchange Rate after such  adjustment and setting forth a brief
statement of the facts requiring such  adjustment,  which  certificate  shall be
conclusive evidence of the correctness of such adjustment absent manifest error.
Promptly after delivery of such  certificate,  the  Corporation  shall prepare a
notice of such  adjustment  of the  Exchange  Rate  setting  forth the  adjusted
Exchange Rate and the effective date such adjustment becomes effective and shall
mail such notice of such  adjustment  of the Exchange Rate to the holder of each
share of Class B Common  at such  holder's  last  address  as shown on the stock
transfer records of the Corporation.

     (e) In any case in which Section 9(a)  provides  that an  adjustment  shall
become  effective  on the day  following  the  record  date  for an  event,  the
Corporation  may defer  until the  occurrence  of such event (i)  issuing to the
holder of any  share of Class B Common  converted  after  such  record  date and
before  the  occurrence  of such  event the  additional  shares of Common  Stock
issuable upon such conversion by reason of the adjustment required by such event
over and above the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such  conversion  before
giving effect to such adjustment and (ii)  fractionalizing  any share of Class B
Common  and/or  paying to such holder any amount of cash in lieu of any fraction
pursuant to Section 8.

     (f)  There  shall  be no  adjustment  of the  Exchange  Rate in case of the
issuance  of any  equity  securities  of the  Corporation  in a  reorganization,
acquisition or other similar  transaction  except as  specifically  set forth in
this Section 9. If any action or  transaction  would  require  adjustment of the
Exchange  Rate pursuant to more than one  subsection  of Section 9(a),  only one
adjustment  shall be made, and such adjustment shall be the amount of adjustment
that has the highest absolute value.

     (g) If the  Corporation  shall take any action  affecting the Common Stock,
other than action  described in this Section 9, that in the opinion of the Board
of Directors of the Corporation  would materially  adversely affect the exchange
rights of the holders of the Class B Common,  the Exchange  Rate for the Class B
Common shall be  adjusted,  to the extent  permitted by law, in such manner,  if
any, and at such time, as the Board of Directors of the Corporation, in its sole
discretion, determines to be equitable in the circumstances.

     (h) The  Corporation  shall at all times reserve and keep  available,  free
from  preemptive  rights,  out of the aggregate of its  authorized  but unissued
Common  Stock,  for the purpose of effecting any exchange of the Class B Common,
the full number of shares of Common Stock  deliverable  upon the exchange of all
outstanding shares of Class B Common not theretofore exchanged.  For purposes of
this  subsection  (h),  the  number  of shares of  Common  Stock  that  shall be
deliverable upon the exchange of all outstanding  shares of Class B Common shall
be computed as if at the time of computation  all such  outstanding  shares were
held by a single holder.

     The  Corporation  covenants  that any shares of Common  Stock  issued  upon
exchange  of the  Class B  Common  shall  be  validly  issued,  fully  paid  and
non-assessable.



                                       10
<PAGE>


     The  Corporation  shall list the Common Stock required to be delivered upon
exchange  of the  Class B Common,  prior to such  delivery,  upon each  national
securities  exchange,  if any, upon which the outstanding Common Stock is listed
at the time of such delivery.

     Prior to the  delivery  of any  securities  that the  Corporation  shall be
obligated to deliver upon exchange of the Class B Common,  the Corporation shall
comply with all federal and state laws and regulations  thereunder requiring the
registration  of such  securities  with,  or any  approval  of or consent to the
delivery thereof, by any governmental authority.

     (i) The  Corporation  shall pay any and all  documentary  stamp or  similar
issue or  transfer  taxes  payable in respect of the issue or delivery of Common
Stock or other securities or property on exchange of the Class B Common pursuant
hereto; provided, however, that the Corporation shall not be required to pay any
tax that may be  payable in respect  of any  transfer  involved  in the issue or
delivery of Common  Stock or other  securities  or property in a name other than
that of the  record  holder of the Class B Common to be  exchanged,  and no such
issue or  delivery  shall be made  unless and until the person  requesting  such
issue or  delivery  has paid to the  Corporation  the  amount of any such tax or
established,  to the reasonable  satisfaction of the Corporation,  that such tax
has been paid.

     10. Ownership Limitations. Notwithstanding Article VII of the Articles, the
provisions of this Section 10 shall apply with respect to the limitations on the
ownership and acquisition of shares of Class B Common.

     (a) Restriction on Ownership and Transfer.

     (i) Except as provided in Section 10(h), no Person shall  Beneficially  Own
or  Constructively  Own any shares of Class B Common such that such Person would
Beneficially Own or Constructively  Own Capital Stock in excess of the Ownership
Limit;

     (ii) Except as provided in Section 10(h), any Transfer (whether or not such
Transfer is the result of a transaction  entered into through the  facilities of
the New York Stock Exchange, Inc. (the "NYSE")) that, if effective, would result
in any  Person  Beneficially  Owning  Class B Common in excess of the  Ownership
Limit shall be void ab initio as to the  Transfer  of such Class B Common  which
would be otherwise  Beneficially Owned by such Person in excess of the Ownership
Limit;  and the  intended  transferee  shall  acquire  no rights in such Class B
Common;

     (iii) Except as provided in Section  10(h),  any  Transfer  (whether or not
such Transfer is the result of a transaction entered into through the facilities
of the NYSE)  that,  if  effective,  would  result in any Person  Constructively
Owning Class B Common in excess of the  Ownership  Limit shall be void ab initio
as  to  the   Transfer  of  such  Class  B  Common   which  would  be  otherwise
Constructively  Owned by such Person in excess of the Ownership  Limit;  and the
intended transferee shall acquire no rights in such Class B Common; and

     (iv) Notwithstanding any other provisions contained in this Section 10, any
Transfer  (whether or not such Transfer is the result of a  transaction  entered
into  through the  facilities  of the NYSE) or other event that,  if  effective,
would  result in the  Corporation  being  "closely  held"  within the meaning of
Section 856(h) of the Code, or would otherwise result in the Corporation failing
to qualify as a REIT  (including,  but not limited to, a Transfer or other event
that would result in the  Corporation  owning  (directly or  Constructively)  an
interest in a tenant


                                       11
<PAGE>


that is described in Section  856(d)(2)(B)  of the Code if the income derived by
the Corporation  from such tenant would cause the Corporation to fail to satisfy
any of the gross  income  requirements  of Section  856(c) of the Code) shall be
void ab initio as to the  Transfer  of the Class B Common or other  event  which
would cause the  Corporation  to be "closely held" within the meaning of Section
856(h) of the Code or would  otherwise  result  in the  Corporation  failing  to
qualify as a REIT;  and the  intended  transferee  or owner or  Constructive  or
Beneficial Owner shall acquire or retain no rights in such Class B Common.

     (b)  Conversion   Into  and  Exchange  For  Class  B  Excess  Common.   If,
notwithstanding  the other provisions  contained in this Section 10, at any time
after the date of the Class B Issue Date, there is a purported Transfer (whether
or not such  Transfer is the result of a  transaction  entered  into through the
facilities of the NYSE),  change in the capital  structure of the Corporation or
other event such that one or more of the restrictions on ownership and transfers
described in Section 10(a),  above,  has been violated,  then the Class B Common
being Transferred (or in the case of an event other than a Transfer, the Class B
Common  owned or  Constructively  Owned or  Beneficially  Owned  or, if the next
sentence  applies,  the Class B Common  identified in the next  sentence)  which
would cause the restriction on ownership or transfer to be violated  (rounded up
to the nearest  whole  share)  shall be  automatically  converted  into an equal
number of shares of Class B Common Excess Stock ("Class B Excess Common"). If at
any time of such purported  Transfer any of the shares of the Class B Common are
then owned by a  depositary  to permit the trading of  beneficial  interests  in
fractional shares of Class B Common, then shares of Class B Common that shall be
converted to Class B Excess  Common shall be first taken from any Class B Common
that is not in such  depositary  that is  Beneficially  Owned or  Constructively
Owned by the Person whose Beneficial  Ownership or Constructive  Ownership would
otherwise  violate the  restrictions  of Section 10(a) prior to  converting  any
shares in such depositary. Any conversion pursuant to this subparagraph shall be
effective  as of the close of business on the  Business Day prior to the date of
such Transfer or other event.

     (c) Remedies For Breach.  If the Board of Directors of the  Corporation  or
its designee  shall at any time determine in good faith that a Transfer or other
event has taken place in violation of Section 10(a) or that a Person  intends to
Transfer or acquire,  has  attempted  to Transfer or acquire or may  Transfer or
acquire direct ownership,  beneficial ownership (determined without reference to
any rules of attribution), Beneficial Ownership or Constructive Ownership of any
shares of the Corporation in violation of Section 10(a),  the Board of Directors
of the  Corporation or its designee shall take such action as it deems advisable
to refuse to give effect to or to prevent such  Transfer,  acquisition  or other
event,  including,  but not limited to, causing the Corporation to purchase such
shares for Fair  Market  Value upon the terms and  conditions  specified  by the
Board of Directors of the Corporation in its sole  discretion,  refusing to give
effect  to such  Transfer,  acquisition  or  other  event  on the  books  of the
Corporation or instituting  proceedings to enjoin such Transfer,  acquisition or
other event;  provided,  however,  that any Transfer or acquisition  (or, in the
case of events other than a Transfer or  acquisition,  ownership or Constructive
Ownership  or  Beneficial   Ownership)  in  violation  of  Section  10(a)  shall
automatically result in the conversion described in Section 10(b),  irrespective
of any action (or non-action) by the Board of Directors of the Corporation.



                                       12
<PAGE>


     (d) Notice of Restricted  Transfer.  Any Person who acquires or attempts to
acquire or Beneficially Owns or Constructively  Owns shares of Class B Common in
excess of the  aforementioned  limitations,  or any Person who is or attempts to
become a transferee such that Class B Excess Common results under the provisions
of these Articles,  shall  immediately give written notice or, in the event of a
proposed or attempted  Transfer,  give at least 15 days prior written  notice to
the  Corporation of such event and shall provide to the  Corporation  such other
information  as it may  request  in order to  determine  the  effect of any such
Transfer on the Corporation's status as a REIT.

     (e)  Owners  Required  To Provide  Information.  From and after the Class B
Issue Date, each Person who is a Beneficial Owner or Constructive Owner of Class
B Common and each Person  (including  the  stockholder of record) who is holding
Class B Common for a Beneficial Owner or Constructive Owner shall provide to the
Corporation  such   information  with  respect  to  the  direct,   indirect  and
constructive ownership of Class B Common as the Corporation may request, in good
faith,  in order to comply with the provisions of the Code  applicable to REITs,
to comply with the requirements of any taxing  authority or governmental  agency
or to determine such compliance.

     (f) Remedies Not Limited. Nothing contained in this Section 10 (but subject
to Section  10(l))  shall limit the  authority  of the Board of Directors of the
Corporation  to take such other  action as it deems  necessary  or  advisable to
protect the Corporation and the interests of its stockholders by preservation of
the Corporation's status as a REIT.

     (g) Ambiguity. In the case of an ambiguity in the application of any of the
provisions of this Section 10, including any definition contained in Section 11,
the Board of Directors of the Corporation  shall have the power to determine the
application  of the  provisions of this Section 10 with respect to any situation
based on the facts known to it (subject,  however,  to the provisions of Section
10(l)).

     (h) Exceptions.


     (i)  Subject  to  Section   10(a)(iv),   the  Board  of  Directors  of  the
Corporation,  in its sole  and  absolute  discretion,  with  the  advice  of the
Corporation's  tax counsel,  may exempt a Person from the limitation on a Person
Beneficially  Owning  Class B Common in excess  of the  Ownership  Limit if such
Person is not an  individual  for purposes of Section  542(a)(2) of the Code and
the Board of Directors obtains such  representations  and undertakings from such
Person  as  are  reasonably   necessary  to  ascertain   that  no   individual's
Beneficially  Owning  Class B Common will violate the  Ownership  Limit and such
Person  agrees that any violation of such  representations  or  undertaking  (or
other action which is contrary to the restrictions contained in this Section 10)
or attempted  violation will result in such Class B Common Beneficially Owned in
excess of the  Ownership  Limit  being  exchanged  for Class B Excess  Common in
accordance with Section 10(b).

     (ii)  Subject  to  Section  10(a)(iv),   the  Board  of  Directors  of  the
Corporation,   in  its  sole  and  absolute  discretion,   with  advice  of  the
Corporation's  tax counsel,  may exempt a Person from the limitation on a Person
Constructively  Owning Class B Common in excess of the  Ownership  Limit if such
Person does not and represents that it will not own,  directly or constructively
(by virtue of the application of Section 318 of the Code, as modified by Section
856(d)(5)  of the  Code),  more  than a 9%  interest  (as set  forth in  Section
856(d)(2)(B)


                                       13
<PAGE>


of the Code) in a tenant of the Corporation  and the Board of Directors  obtains
such  representations  and  undertakings  from  such  Person  as are  reasonably
necessary to ascertain  this fact and such Person  agrees that any  violation or
attempted violation will result in such Class B Common  Constructively  Owned in
excess of the  Ownership  Limit being  exchanged  for Excess Stock in accordance
with Section 10(b).

     (iii)  Prior to granting  any  exception  pursuant  to Section  10(h)(i) or
10(h)(ii),  the Board of Directors of this Corporation may require a ruling from
the IRS,  or an  opinion  of  counsel,  in  either  case in form  and  substance
satisfactory  to the Board of Directors,  in its sole  discretion as it may deem
necessary  or  advisable  in order to  determine  or  ensure  the  Corporation's
organization and operation in conformity with the requirements for qualification
as a REIT under the Code; provided,  however,  that obtaining a favorable ruling
or  opinion  shall  not be  required  for the  Board  of  Directors  to grant an
exception hereunder.

     (i) Increase in Ownership  Limit.  Notwithstanding  anything  herein to the
contrary,  Article VII, Section 9 of the charter of the Corporation  shall apply
to this Section 10.

     (j) Legend.  Each  certificate for Class B Common shall bear  substantially
the following legend:

     The  Corporation  will furnish to any  stockholder,  on request and without
     charge, a full statement of the information required by Section 2-211(d) of
     the Corporations and Associations Article of the Annotated Code of Maryland
     with respect to the designations and any preferences,  conversion and other
     rights, voting powers, restrictions,  limitations as to dividends and other
     distributions,  qualifications,  and terms and  conditions of redemption of
     the shares of each class of stock which the  Corporation  has  authority to
     issue and, if the  Corporation  is  authorized  to issue any  preferred  or
     special class in series,  (i) the  differences  in the relative  rights and
     preferences  between the shares of each series to the extent set,  and (ii)
     the authority of the Board of Directors to set such rights and  preferences
     of subsequent series. The following summary does not purport to be complete
     and is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to the charter
     of the Corporation  including all amendments and  supplements  thereto (the
     "Charter"),  a copy of which, including  restrictions on transfer,  will be
     sent without charge to each stockholder who so requests.  Such request must
     be made to the Secretary of the  Corporation at its principal  office or to
     the Transfer Agent. All capitalized  terms in this legend have the meanings
     defined in the Charter.

     The securities  represented by this certificate are subject to restrictions
     on ownership and transfer for the purpose of the Corporation's  maintenance
     of its status as a real estate  investment trust under the Internal Revenue
     Code of 1986,  as amended.  Except as  otherwise  provided  pursuant to the
     Charter   of  the   Corporation,   no  Person  may   Beneficially   Own  or
     Constructively Own any shares of Class B Common such that such Person would
     Beneficially  Own or  Constructively  Own Common  Equity in excess of 9% in
     value of the aggregate of the outstanding shares of Common


                                       14

     Equity of the  Corporation.  Any Person who acquires or attempts to acquire
     or  Beneficially  Owns or  Constructively  Owns shares of Class B Common in
     excess of the aforementioned  limitation,  or any Person who is or attempts
     to become a transferee  such that Class B Excess  Common would result under
     the provisions of the Charter, shall immediately give written notice or, in
     the event of a proposed or attempted Transfer,  give at least 15 days prior
     written  notice to the  Corporation  of such event and shall provide to the
     Corporation such other  information as it may request in order to determine
     the  effect of any such  Transfer  on the  corporation's  status as a REIT.
     Transfers in violation of the restrictions described above shall be void ab
     initio.  If the  restrictions  on ownership and transfer are violated,  the
     securities  represented  hereby will be designated and treated as shares of
     Class B Excess  Common which will be  transferred,  by operation of law, to
     the trustee of a trust for the exclusive  benefit of one or more charitable
     organizations.

     (k) Severability. If any provision of this Section 10 or any application of
any such  provision  is  determined  to be invalid by any federal or state court
having  jurisdiction,  the  validity of the  remaining  provisions  shall not be
affected and other  applications of such provision shall be affected only to the
extent necessary to comply with the determination of such court.

     (l) Class B Excess Common.

     (i) Ownership In Trust.  Upon any purported  Transfer  (whether or not such
Transfer is the result of a transaction  entered into through the  facilities of
the NYSE) that  results in the  issuance  of Class B Excess  Common  pursuant to
Section  10(b),  such  Class B  Excess  Common  shall  be  deemed  to have  been
transferred  to the Trustee of a Trust for the exclusive  benefit of one or more
Charitable Beneficiaries. The Trustee shall be appointed by the Corporation, and
shall be a person  unaffiliated with the Corporation,  any Purported  Beneficial
Transferee or any Purported Record Transferee. By written notice to the Trustee,
the Corporation  shall designate one or more non-profit  organizations to be the
Charitable  Beneficiary(ies) of the interest in the Trust representing the Class
B Excess Common such that (a) the shares of Class B Common from which the shares
of Class B Excess  Common held in the Trust were so converted  would not violate
the  restrictions  set forth in paragraph (a) of this Section 10 in the hands of
such  Charitable   Beneficiary  and  (b)  each  Charitable   Beneficiary  is  an
organization described in Sections 170(b)(1)(a),  170(c)(2) and 501(c)(3) of the
Code.  The Trustee of the Trust will be deemed to own the Class B Excess  Common
for the  benefit  of the  Charitable  Beneficiary  on the date of the  purported
Transfer  or other  event that  results  in Class B Excess  Common  pursuant  to
paragraph  (b) of this Section 10. Class B Excess  Common so held in trust shall
be issued and  outstanding  shares of stock of the  Corporation.  The  Purported
Record  Transferee shall have no rights in such Class B Excess Common except the
right to  designate a  transferee  of such Class B Excess  Common upon the terms
specified in Section 10(l)(v). The Purported Beneficial Transferee shall have no
rights in such Class B Excess Common except as provided in this Section 10.

     (ii) Dividend  Rights.  Class B Excess Common will be entitled to dividends
and  distributions  authorized  and declared  with respect to the Class B Common
from which the Class B Excess  Common was  converted  and will be payable to the
Trustee of the Trust



                                       15
<PAGE>

in which such Class B Excess Common is held,  for the benefit of the  Charitable
Beneficiary.  Dividends and  distributions  will be authorized and declared with
respect  to each  share of  Class B  Excess  Common  in an  amount  equal to the
dividends  and  distributions  authorized  and declared on each share of Class B
Common  from which the Class B Excess  Common was  converted.  Any  dividend  or
distribution paid to a Purported Record Transferee prior to the discovery by the
Corporation  that  Class B  Common  has been  transferred  in  violation  of the
provisions of this Section 10 shall be repaid by the Purported Record Transferee
to the Trustee  upon  demand.  The  Corporation  shall  rescind any  dividend or
distribution  authorized  and declared but unpaid as void ab initio with respect
to the Purported Record Transferee,  and the Corporation shall pay such dividend
or  distribution  when due to the  Trustee  of the Trust for the  benefit of the
Charitable Beneficiary.

     (iii) Conversion  Rights.  Holders of shares of Class B Excess Common shall
not be entitled to exchange  any shares of Class B Excess  Common into shares of
Common  Stock.  Any  exchange  of shares of Class B Common  for shares of Common
Stock made prior to the discovery by the Corporation that such shares of Class B
Common have been  converted  into Class B Excess  Common shall be void ab initio
and the Purported Record Transferee shall return the shares of Common Stock into
which the Class B Common was  exchanged  upon  demand to the  Corporation  which
shares of Common  Stock shall be exchanged  back into Class B Excess  Common and
deposited into the Trust. Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time on or after
the Class B Issue Date,  the  Corporation  may elect to exchange  Class B Excess
Common for Common Stock in accordance with Section 7.

     (iv) Rights Upon Liquidation.  In the event of any voluntary or involuntary
liquidation,  dissolution or winding up of, or any other  distribution of all or
substantially  all of the assets of the  Corporation,  each  holder of shares of
Class B Excess Common shall be entitled to receive, ratably (treating each Class
B Excess Common share as the equivalent of that number of shares of Common Stock
into which it may then be  exchanged by the  Corporation  pursuant to Section 7)
with each  other  holder of Class B Common and Class B Excess  Common  converted
from Class B Common,  any  distribution or payment made to all holders of Common
Stock.

     Any  liquidation  distributions  to be distributed  with respect to Class B
Excess Common shall be  distributed in the same manner as proceeds from the sale
of Class B Excess Common are distributed as set forth in Section 10(l)(v).

     (v) Non-Transferability of Excess Stock. Class B Excess Common shall not be
transferable.  In its sole discretion, the Trustee of the Trust may transfer the
interest in the Trust representing shares of Class B Excess Common to any Person
if the shares of Class B Excess Common would not be Class B Excess Common in the
hands of such Person.  If such transfer is made,  the interest of the Charitable
Beneficiary in the Class B Excess Common shall terminate and the proceeds of the
sale shall be payable by the Trustee to the Purported  Record  Transferee and to
the Charitable  Beneficiary as herein set forth. The Purported Record Transferee
shall receive from the Trustee the lesser of (i) the price paid by the Purported
Record  Transferee  for its shares of Class B Common  that were  converted  into
Class B Excess Common or, if the Purported Record  Transferee did not give value
for such shares  (e.g.  the stock was received  through a gift,  devise or other
transaction),  the average closing price for the class of shares from which such
shares of Class B Excess Common were converted for the ten trading


                                       16
<PAGE>

days immediately preceding such sale or gift, and (ii) the price received by the
Trustee from the sale or other  disposition of the Class B Excess Common held in
trust.  The  Trustee  may  reduce the amount  payable  to the  Purported  Record
Transferee by the amount of dividends and distributions  which have been paid to
the Purported Record  Transferee and are owed by the Purported Record Transferee
to the Trustee  pursuant  to Section  10(l)(ii).  Any  proceeds in excess of the
amount payable to the Purported  Record  Transferee shall be paid by the Trustee
to the Charitable  Beneficiary.  Upon such transfer of an interest in the Trust,
the  corresponding  shares  of  Class B  Excess  Common  in the  Trust  shall be
automatically exchanged for an equal number of shares of Class B Common and such
shares of Class B Common shall be transferred of record to the transferee of the
interest  in the  Trust if such  shares  of Class B Common  would not be Class B
Excess  Common in the hands of such  transferee.  Prior to any  transfer  of any
interest in the Trust,  the Corporation must have waived in writing its purchase
rights under Section 10(l)(vii).

     (vi) Voting Rights for Class B Excess Common.  Any vote cast by a Purported
Record  Transferee  of  Class B Excess  Common  prior  to the  discovery  by the
Corporation  that  Class B  Common  has been  transferred  in  violation  of the
provisions of this Section 10 shall be void ab initio.  While the Class B Excess
Common is held in trust, the Purported Record  Transferee will be deemed to have
given an  irrevocable  proxy to the Trustee to vote the shares of Class B Common
which have been  converted  into shares of Class B Excess Common for the benefit
of the Charitable Beneficiary.

     (vii)  Purchase  Rights  in  Class B  Excess  Common.  Notwithstanding  the
provisions of Section 10(l)(v),  shares of Class B Excess Common shall be deemed
to have been offered for sale to the  Corporation,  or its designee,  at a price
per share equal to the lesser of (i) the price per share in the transaction that
required  the  issuance of such Class B Excess  Common  (or, if the  Transfer or
other  event that  resulted in the  issuance of Class B Excess  Common was not a
transaction  in which the Purported  Beneficial  Transferee  gave full value for
such Class B Excess  Common,  a price per share equal to the Market Price on the
date of the  purported  Transfer or other event that resulted in the issuance of
Class B Excess Common) and (ii) the Market Price on the date the Corporation, or
its designee, accepts such offer. The Corporation shall have the right to accept
such  offer for a period of ninety  (90) days after the later of (i) the date of
the  Transfer or other event  which  resulted in the  issuance of such shares of
Class B Excess  Common and (ii) the date the Board of  Directors  determines  in
good faith that a Transfer or other event resulting in the issuance of shares of
Class B Excess Common has occurred, if the Corporation does not receive a notice
of such Transfer or other event pursuant to Section 10(d).  The  Corporation may
appoint a special  trustee  of the Trust for the  purpose  of  consummating  the
purchase  of Class B Excess  Common by the  Corporation.  In the event  that the
Corporation's  actions  cause a  reduction  in the  number  of shares of Class B
Common  outstanding and such reduction results in the issuance of Class B Excess
Common,  the  Corporation is required to exercise its option to repurchase  such
shares of Class B Excess Common if the Beneficial Owner notifies the Corporation
that it is unable to sell its rights to such Class B Excess Common.

     (m) Settlement. Nothing in this Section 10 shall preclude the settlement of
any transaction entered into through the facilities of the NYSE.
