TIAA REAL ESTATE ACCOUNT
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
Note 1Significant Accounting Policies
The TIAA Real Estate Account (Account) is a segregated investment account of Teachers Insurance and Annuity Association of America (TIAA) and was established by resolution of TIAAs Board of Trustees on February 22, 1995, under the insurance laws of the State of New York, for the purpose of funding variable annuity contracts issued by TIAA. The investment objective of the Account is a favorable long-term rate of return primarily through rental income and capital appreciation from real estate investments owned by the Account. The Account holds various properties in wholly-owned and majority-owned subsidiaries which are consolidated for financial statement purposes. The Account also holds various other properties in joint ventures in which the Account does not hold a controlling interest. Such joint ventures are not consolidated for financial statement purposes. The Account also invests in publicly-traded securities and other instruments to maintain adequate liquidity for operating expenses, capital expenditures and to make benefit payments. The financial statements were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States which may require the use of estimates made by management. Actual results may vary from those estimates. The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Account.
Basis of Presentation: The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the Account and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Valuation of Real Estate Properties: Investments in real estate properties are stated at fair value, as determined in accordance with procedures approved by the Investment Committee of the TIAA Board of Trustees and in accordance with the responsibilities of the Board as a whole; accordingly, the Account does not record depreciation. Fair value for real estate properties is defined as the most probable price for which a property will sell in a competitive market under all conditions requisite to a fair sale. Determination of fair value involves subjective judgement because the actual market value of real estate can be determined only by negotiation between the parties in a sales transaction. Real estate properties owned by the Account are initially valued at their respective purchase prices (including acquisition costs). Subsequently, independent appraisers value each real estate property at least once a year. The independent fiduciary, The Townsend Group, must approve all independent appraisers used by the Account. The independent fiduciary can also require additional appraisals if it believes that a propertys value has changed materially or otherwise to assure that the Account is valued correctly. TIAAs appraisal staff performs a valuation review of each real estate property on a quarterly basis and updates the property value if it believes that the value of the property has changed since the previous valuation review or appraisal. Real estate properties subject to a mortgage are generally valued as described above; however, the value may be adjusted if it is determined that the outstanding debt could have a material affect on the value of the property. The independent fiduciary reviews and approves any such valuation adjustments which exceed certain prescribed limits before such adjustments are recorded by the Account. The Account continues to use the revised value to calculate the Accounts net asset value until the next valuation review or appraisal.
Valuation of Unconsolidated Joint Ventures: Real estate joint ventures (in which the Account does not have a controlling interest and therefore are not consolidated) are stated at the Accounts equity in the net assets of the underlying entities, which value their real estate holdings at fair value.
Valuation of Marketable Securities: Equity securities listed or traded on any national market or exchange are valued at the last sale price as of the close of the principal securities exchange on which such securities are traded or, if there is no sale, at the mean of the last bid and asked prices on such exchange. Debt securities, other than money market instruments, are valued at the most recent bid price or the equivalent quoted yield for such securities (or those of comparable maturity, quality and type). Money market instruments, with maturities of one year or less, are valued in the same manner as debt securities or derived from a pricing matrix that has various types of money market instruments along one axis and various maturities along the other. Portfolio securities and limited partnership interests for which market quota-
7
tions are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith under the direction of the Investment Committee of the TIAA Board of Trustees and in accordance with the responsibilities of the Board as a whole.
Accounting for Investments: Real estate transactions are accounted for as of the date on which the purchase or sale transactions for the real estate properties close (settlement date). Rent from real estate properties consists of all amounts earned under tenant operating leases, including base rent, recoveries of real estate taxes and other expenses and charges for miscellaneous services provided to tenants. Rental income is recognized in accordance with the billing terms of the lease agreements. The Account bears the direct expenses of the real estate properties owned. These expenses include, but are not limited to, fees to local property management companies, property taxes, utilities, maintenance, repairs, insurance and other operating and administrative costs. An estimate of the net operating income earned from each real estate property is accrued by the Account on a daily basis and such estimates are adjusted as soon as actual operating results are determined.
Securities transactions are accounted for as of the date the securities are purchased or sold (trade date). Interest income is recorded as earned and includes accrual of discount and amortization of premium. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Realized gains and losses on securities transactions are accounted for on the specific identification method.
Federal Income Taxes: Based on provisions of the Internal Revenue Code, the Account is taxed as a segregated asset account of TIAA. The Account should incur no material federal income tax attributable to the net investment experience of the Account.
Note 2Management Agreements
Investment advisory services for the Account are provided by TIAA employees, under the direction of TIAAs Board of Trustees and its Investment Committee, pursuant to investment management procedures adopted by TIAA for the Account. TIAAs investment management decisions for the Account are also subject to review by the Accounts independent fiduciary. TIAA also provides all portfolio accounting and related services for the Account.
Distribution and administrative services for the Account are provided by TIAA-CREF Individual & Institutional Services, LLC (Services) pursuant to a Distribution and Administrative Services Agreement with the Account. Services, a wholly-owned subsidiary of TIAA, is a registered broker-dealer and member of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. Effective January 1, 2004, Services was converted from a regular corporation to a limited liability corporation.
The services provided by TIAA and Services are provided at cost. TIAA and Services receive payments from the Account on a daily basis according to formulas established each year with the objective of keeping the payments as close as possible to the Accounts actual expenses. Any differences between actual expenses and the amounts paid are adjusted quarterly.
TIAA also provides a liquidity guarantee to the Account, for a fee, to ensure that sufficient funds are available to meet participant transfer and cash withdrawal requests in the event that the Accounts cash flows and liquid investments are insufficient to fund such requests. TIAA also receives a fee for assuming certain mortality and expense risks.

Note 3Real Estate Properties
During the nine months ended September 30, 2004, the Account purchased 14 properties for approximately $800 million. Had the Accounts real estate properties which were purchased during the nine months ended September 30, 2004 been acquired at the beginning of the period (January 1, 2004), rental income and operating expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 would have increased by approximately $63,954,000 and $25,451,000, respectively. In addition, interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 would have decreased by approximately $12,920,000. Accordingly, the total proforma effect on the Accounts net investment income for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 would have been an increase of approximately $25,583,000, if the real estate properties acquired during the nine months ended September 30, 2004, had been acquired at the beginning of the year.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2004, the Account moved five real estate properties from the held for investment category to the held for sale category. The current unrealized gain on these properties for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 was $7,714,562 which is included in discontinued operations along with net investment income for the period of $2,437,353, consisting of rental income of $6,374,458 less operating expense of $3,937,105.
Note 4Leases
The Accounts real estate properties are leased to tenants under operating lease agreements which expire on various dates through 2046. Aggregate minimum annual rentals for the properties owned, excluding short-term residential leases, are as follows:

Item 2. MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read together with our consolidated financial statements and notes contained in this report.
As of September 30, 2004, the Account owned a total of 101 real estate properties (five of which are held in unconsolidated joint ventures), representing 81.53% of the Accounts total investment portfolio. This real estate portfolio includes 40 office properties (five of which are held in consolidated joint ventures and two of which are held in an unconsolidated joint venture), 28 industrial properties, 22 apartment complexes, 10 retail properties (including three unconsolidated joint ventures, each owning a regional mall, in which the Account owns a 50% partnership interest), and a 75% consolidated joint venture partnership interest in a portfolio of storage facilities.
During the third quarter of 2004, the Account purchased two office, one retail, and eight industrial properties in the aggregate amount of $614.2 million. In addition, the Account purchased a 50% interest in a joint venture partnership which owns an office building for a total equity investment of $228.5 million.
The two charts below reflect the diversification of the Accounts real estate assets by region and property type as well as its ten largest holdings. All information is based on the value of each property as stated in the consolidated financial statements as of September 30, 2004.

Real Estate Market Outlook in General
Alan Greenspan noted in his September 2004 testimony to the U.S. House of Representatives that the U.S. economy hit a soft patch in the third quarter 2004. The softness was borne out by payroll employment data as the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) reported that nonfarm payroll employment rose by 96,000 in September and by 103,000 on average during the third quarter 2004 as compared to an average of 295,000 during the March-May period. The softness was attributed largely to the steep increase in energy prices and manifested in part by a slowdown in consumer spending. Nonetheless, the twelve Federal Reserve Banks in the September 2004 Beige Book indicated that while economic activity had slowed in several districts since their July 2004 reports, most districts still reported modest or moderate growth.
The modest growth in payroll employment was reflected by incremental improvement in the office and industrial real estate markets. Office market vacancies declined for the fifth consecutive quarter with third quarter 2004 vacancies averaging 15.9% compared with 16.2% in the second quarter 2004. Industrial market vacancies declined to 11.2% in the third quarter 2004 compared with 11.4% in the second quarter 2004.
Apartment markets also showed modest improvement. M/PF Research reported that vacancy rates in institutional grade apartments averaged 6.4% in second quarter 2004 compared with 6.6% in second quarter 2003. (third quarter 2004 data are not yet available. Because of seasonality in leasing, it is best to compare available data with data for the same quarter in the prior year.) Rents increased slightly by 0.7%, and concessions to attract new tenants, such as a months free rent and/or free internet service were still necessary though less generous.
Retail sales picked up modestly during the third quarter 2004. Excluding automobile sales, which often swing wildly from month to month, retail sales rose by a brisk 0.6% in September, up from 0.2% in August, and better than the 0.4% increase that some economists were expecting. Retail markets saw vacancies decline and rents edge up during the second quarter 2004. (Market data for the third quarter 2004 are not yet available.) Reis, Inc. reported that, while vacancies in regional malls fell to 5.6% as of the second quarter 2004 compared with 5.8% in the first quarter 2004, rents increased by 0.4%. Vacancies in neighborhood and community centers decreased to 6.9% in the second quarter 2004 compared to 7.0% in the first quarter 2004, while rents increased 0.6%.
Near-term fluctuations in the U.S. economy are not predictable, but most economists expect stronger growth in the coming months. The consensus of 44 top economists surveyed by the Blue Chip Financial Forecasts is that U.S. Gross Domestic Product (GDP) will grow in the fourth quarter 2004. As Alan Greenspan observed in his September 2004 testimony, the most recent data suggest that...the expansion has regained some traction. The Blue Chip Financial Forecasts does not provide a consensus forecast of employment growth, but the projected growth in GDP may provide a strong impetus for firms to increase hiring. Nonetheless, the near-term outlook for commercial real estate markets remains murky since space demand often lags employment growth by several quarters.
Results of Operations
When reviewing this discussion, it is important to note that when the Account owns a controlling interest (generally over 50%) in a joint venture, consistent with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP), the Accounts consolidated financial statements and all financial data discussed in the report reflect 100% of the market value, free and clear of leverage, if applicable, of the joint ventures assets. The interests of the other joint venture partners are reflected as minority interests in the Accounts consolidated financial statements. When the Account does not have a controlling interest in a joint venture (generally 50% or less), then only the Accounts proportionate interest in the unconsolidated joint venture is recorded by the Account.
23
Note also that all of the Accounts properties are appraised and revalued on a quarterly basis, in accordance with the valuation policies described in Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. Until a property is sold, these changes in property values are recorded as unrealized gains or losses. Upon the sale of a property, the difference between the Accounts then current cost for the property (original purchase price plus the cost of any capital improvements made) and the sale price is recorded as a realized gain or loss from discontinued operations.
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2004 Compared to
Nine
Months Ended September 30, 2003
Results from Continuing Operations
Performance
The Accounts total net return was 8.90% for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 and 5.83% for the nine months ended September 30, 2003. This increase in the Accounts total return was primarily due to substantial increases in the market value of the Accounts real estate holdings.
The Accounts net investment income after deduction of all expenses was 30% higher for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 compared to the same period in 2003. This increase was primarily due to a 45% increase in total net assets and the 64% increase in real estate holdings over the same period.
The Accounts real estate holdings, including unconsolidated joint venture investments, generated approximately 91% and 94% of the Accounts total investment income (before deducting Account level expenses) during the nine months ended September 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively. The remaining portion of the Accounts total investment income was generated by marketable securities investments.
Gross real estate rental income increased approximately 32% in the nine months ended September 30, 2004, as compared to the same period in 2003. This increase was due to the increased number of properties owned by the Account as of September 30, 2004 as compared with September 30, 2003. Income from unconsolidated real estate joint ventures was $12,443,808 for the nine months ended September 30, 2004, as compared with $14,620,644 for the same period in 2003. This decrease in unconsolidated joint venture income was partially due to the increase in leverage on one of the regional malls. Interest income on the Accounts marketable securities investments increased to $9,319,462 for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 from $4,402,372 for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 due to the increase in the amount of non-real estate assets held by the Account. Dividend income on the Accounts REIT investments increased to $15,208,315 for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 from $7,499,103 for the nine months ended September 30, 2003. The increase was primarily due to the strong performance by the Accounts REIT holdings.
Total property level expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 and 2003 were $150,738,045 and $107,046,155, respectively. This 41% increase in property level expenses reflected the increased number of investments in real estate by the Account (76 properties as of September 30, 2003 compared to 101 properties as of September 30, 2004). In addition, during the nine months ended September 30, 2004, the Account incurred interest expense of $2,695,856 related to the mortgages on a portfolio of storage facilities in which the Account has a 75% joint venture interest and an industrial property purchased in the third quarter 2004.
The Account also incurred expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 and 2003 of $10,225,925 and $9,370,775 respectively, for investment advisory services, $11,166,357 and $11,087,140, respectively, for administrative and distribution services and $4,182,234 and $2,916,020, respectively, for the mortality, expense risk and liquidity guarantee charges. Such expenses increased primarily as a result of the larger net asset base in the Account and increased costs associated with managing and administering the Account.

The Account had net realized and unrealized gains on investments of $274,082,980 for the nine months ended September 30, 2004, as compared with net realized and unrealized gains on investments of $33,488,062 for the nine months ended September 30, 2003. The increase in net realized and unrealized gains is primarily due to the substantial net unrealized gain on the Accounts real estate properties of $131,871,469 for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 as compared to net unrealized losses for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 of $13,695,618. In addition, the Account had an unrealized gain on its unconsolidated joint venture holdings of $113,240,871 for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 as compared to unrealized gain of $26,675,169 for the nine months ended September 30, 2003. The substantial net gains in the nine month period ending September 30, 2004 are due to the increase in market value of several real estate properties, including the value of three regional malls in which the Account owns an unconsolidated joint venture interest. The Accounts marketable securities for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 had net realized and unrealized gains totaling $28,970,640, as compared with net realized and unrealized gains of $20,508,511, for the nine months ended September 30, 2003.
Results from Discontinued Operations
During the nine months ended September 30, 2004, the Account did not sell any properties but moved five properties to the held for sale category. During the nine months ended September 30, 2003, the Account sold two properties and had five properties moved to the held for sale category. The investment income and unrealized gains for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 related to the properties held for sale, as well as the investment income and unrealized and realized gains and losses for the properties sold or held for sale during 2003, were removed from continuing operations in the accompanying consolidated financial statements and were classified as discontinued operations.

The income for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 from the property sold during 2003 and the properties held for sale during 2003, consisted of rental income of $22,641,742 less operating expenses and real estate taxes of $8,655,224, resulting in net investment income of $13,986,518. The net realized and unrealized gain on discontinued operations for the nine month period ended September 30, 2004 and 2003 was $7,714,562 and $9,040,768, respectively. At the time of sale, the properties sold during the nine months ended September 30, 2003 had a cost of $154,626,452 and the proceeds of sale were $187,225,000, resulting in a net realized gain of $32,598,548.

Performance
For the three months ended September 30, 2004, the Accounts total net return was 4.48%. This was 186 basis points higher than the return of 2.62% for the three months ended September 30, 2003. The returns were higher in the 2004 period as compared to the same time in 2003 primarily due to the strong performance of the Accounts real estate and REIT holdings. The Accounts net investment income, after deduction of all expenses, was $80,672,232 for the three months ended September 30, 2004 and $60,602,380 for the three months ended September 30, 2003, a 33% increase.
The Accounts real estate holdings including income from unconsolidated joint ventures generated approximately 89% and 92% of the Accounts total investment income (before deducting Account level expenses) during the three months ended September 30, 2004 and 2003. The remaining portion of the Accounts total investment income was generated by investments in marketable securities.
Gross real estate rental income increased 33% in the three months ended September 30, 2004 compared with the same period in 2003. The higher real estate income for the three months ended September 30, 2004 was due primarily to the increase in the number of properties owned by the Account. Income from uncon-
25
solidated real estate joint ventures was $4,923,248 and $4,468,598 in the three months ended September 30, 2004 and September 30, 2003, respectively. Interest income on the Accounts marketable securities investments for the three months ended September 30, 2004 and 2003 totaled $4,463,220 and $2,096,425, respectively. This increase was due to an increase in the amount of non-real estate assets held by the Account. Dividend income on the Accounts investments in REITs increased to $5,612,876 from $3,381,215 for the three months ended September 30, 2004 and September 30, 2003. The increase was primarily due to the strong performance by the Accounts REIT holdings.
Total property level expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2004 and 2003 were $52,412,388 and $36,901,495, respectively. The 42% increase in property level expenses during the three months ended September 30, 2004 reflected the increased number of properties held in the Account and the interest expense of $1,328,250 for mortgages on a portfolio of storage facilities and an industrial property owned by the Account.
The Account also incurred expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2004 and 2003 of $4,322,840 and $3,635,544, respectively, for investment advisory services, $3,952,538 and $3,680,035, respectively, for administrative and distribution services and $1,570,186 and $1,074,003, respectively, for the mortality, expense risk and liquidity guarantee charges. Such expenses increased primarily as a result of the larger net asset base in the Account and increased costs associated with managing and administering the Account.
The Account had net realized and unrealized gains of $194,022,717 and $51,369,629 for the three months ended September 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively. The difference was primarily due to a substantial increase in the aggregate market value of the Accounts real estate holdings in the three-months ended September 30, 2004 as compared to lesser increases in market values in the same period in 2003. The Account posted net unrealized gains of $112,635,940 and of $19,557,920 on its real estate investments for the three months ended September 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively. The Account posted total realized and unrealized gains on its marketable securities of $19,444,969 during the third quarter of 2004, as compared to net realized and unrealized gains on its marketable securities of $10,931,378 during the third quarter of 2003. The Account had unrealized gain on its joint venture holdings of $61,941,808 for the three months ended September 30, 2004, as compared to unrealized gains of $20,880,331 for the same period 2003, which can be attributed primarily to an increase in value of the three regional malls in which the Account owns a 50% joint venture interest.
Results from Discontinued Operations
At September 30, 2004, the Account had five real estate properties in the held for sale category. During the three months ended September 30, 2003, the Account sold one property and moved five properties into the held for sale category. The investment income and realized and unrealized gains for the three months ended September 30, 2004 and 2003 relating to the properties moved to the held for sale category was removed from continuing operations and classified as discontinued operations. The income from the properties during the third quarter 2004 consisted of rental income of $2,052,569 less operating expenses and real estate taxes totaling $1,146,628 resulting in net investment income in the amount of $905,941. The income from these properties during the third quarter 2003 consisted of rental income of $5,835,692 less operating expenses and real estate taxes totaling $3,045,210 resulting in net investment income of $2,790,482. The net realized and unrealized gain/loss on discontinued operation for the three month period ended September 30, 2004 and 2003 was a gain of $6,400,737 and a loss of $767,796, respectively.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
At September 30, 2004 and 2003, the Accounts liquid assets (i.e., its REITs, CMBSs, commercial paper, government securities and cash) had a value of $1,223,928,053 and $1,173,529,230, respectively. The increase in the Accounts liquid assets is primarily due to net positive inflow of transfers and premiums
26
into the Account. In addition, there was an increase in the value of the Accounts REIT holdings during the same period.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2004, the Account received $524,415,992 in premiums and $808,836,329 in net participant transfers from TIAA, the CREF Accounts and affiliated mutual funds, while for the same period in 2003, the Account received $366,878,102 in premiums and $293,842,836 in net participant transfers. The Accounts liquid assets, exclusive of the REITs, will continue to be available to purchase additional suitable real estate properties and to meet expense needs and redemption requests (i.e., cash withdrawals or transfers). In the unlikely event that the Accounts liquid assets and its cash flow from operating activities and participant transactions are not sufficient to meet its cash needs, including redemption requests, TIAAs general account will purchase liquidity units in accordance with TIAAs liquidity guarantee to the Account.
The Account, under certain conditions more fully described in the Accounts prospectus, may borrow money and assume or obtain a mortgage on a property i.e., to make leveraged real estate investments. Also, to meet any short-term cash needs, the Account may obtain a line of credit whose terms may require that the Account secure a loan with one or more of its properties. The Accounts total borrowings may not exceed 20% of the Accounts total net asset value.
Critical Accounting Policies
The consolidated financial statements of the Account are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
In preparing the Accounts consolidated financial statements, management is required to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
Management believes that the following policies related to the valuation of the Accounts assets reflected in the Accounts consolidated financial statements affect the significant judgments, estimates and assumptions used in preparing its financial statements:
Valuation of Real Estate Properties: Investments in real estate properties are stated at fair value, as determined in accordance with procedures approved by the Investment Committee of the TIAA Board of Trustees. Fair value for real estate properties is defined as the most probable price for which a property will sell in a competitive market under all conditions requisite to a fair sale. Determination of fair value involves subjective judgment because the actual market value of real estate can be determined only by negotiation between the parties in a sales transaction. The Accounts properties are initially valued at their respective purchase prices (including acquisition costs). Subsequently, independent appraisers value each real estate property at least once a year. TIAAs appraisal staff performs a valuation of each real estate property on a quarterly basis and updates the property value if it believes that the value of the property has changed since the previous valuation or appraisal. The appraisals are performed in accordance with Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practices (USPAP), the real estate appraisal industry standards created by The Appraisal Foundation. Real estate appraisals are estimates of property values based on a professionals opinion.
Valuation of Unconsolidated Joint Ventures: Real estate joint ventures (in which the Account does not have a controlling interest and therefore are not consolidated) are stated at the Accounts equity in the net assets of the underlying entities, which value their real estate holdings at fair value.
27
Valuation of Marketable Securities: Equity securities listed or traded on any national market or exchange are valued at the last sale price as of the close of the principal securities exchange on which such securities are traded or, if there is no sale, at the mean of the last bid and asked prices on such exchange. Debt securities, other than money market instruments, are valued at the most recent bid price or the equivalent quoted yield for such securities (or those of comparable maturity, quality and type). Money market instruments, with maturities of one year or less, are valued in the same manner as debt securities are derived from a pricing matrix that has various types of money market instruments along one axis and various maturities along the other. Portfolio securities and limited partnership interests for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith under the direction of the Investment Committee of the TIAA Board of Trustees and in accordance with the responsibilities of the Board as a whole.

Item 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.
As of September 30, 2004, 17.83% of the Accounts investments were in market risk sensitive instruments, comprised entirely of marketable securities. These include real estate investment trusts (REITs), commercial mortgage-backed securities (CMBSs), and high-quality short-term debt instruments (i.e., commercial paper). The Consolidated Statement of Investments for the Account sets forth the terms of these instruments, along with their fair value, as determined in accordance with procedures described in Note 1 to the Accounts financial statements. Note that the Account does not currently invest in derivative financial instruments.
The Accounts investments in marketable securities are subject to the following general risks:
| financial riskfor debt securities, the possibility that the issuer wont be able to pay principal and interest when due, and for common or preferred stock, the possibility that the issuers current earnings will fall or that its overall financial soundness will decline, reducing the securitys value. | ||
|
market riskprice volatility due to changing conditions in the financial markets and, particularly for debt securities, changes in overall interest rates. | ||
|
interest rate volatility, which may affect current income from an investment. |
In addition, mortgage-backed securities are subject to prepayment risk i.e., the risk that borrowers will repay the loans early. If the underlying mortgage assets experience greater than anticipated payments of principal, the Account could fail to recoup some or all of its initial investment in these securities. The market value of these securities is also highly sensitive to changes in interest rates. Note that the potential for appreciation, which could otherwise be expected to result from a decline in interest rates, may be limited by any increased prepayments.
In addition to these risks, REITs and mortgage-backed securities are subject to many of the same general risks inherent in real estate investing, making mortgage loans and investing in debt securities. For more information on the risks associated with all of the Accounts investments, see the Accounts most recent prospectus.
Item 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.
(a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures. An evaluation was performed as of September 30, 2004, under the supervision of the registrants management, including the principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the registrants disclosure controls and procedures. Based on that evaluation, the registrants management, including the principal executive officer and principal financial officer, concluded that the registrants disclosure controls and procedures were effective for this quarterly reporting period.
(b) Changes in internal controls over financial reporting. There have been no significant changes in the registrants internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the registrants last fiscal quarter that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the registrants internal controls over financial reporting.
