MAGUIRE PROPERTIES, INC. AND
MAGUIRE PROPERTIES PREDECESSOR
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED AND COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. | Organization and Description of Business |
The terms Maguire Properties, us, we and our as used in this report refer to Maguire Properties, Inc. Through our controlling interest in Maguire Properties, L.P., (the Operating Partnership), of which we are the sole general partner, and the subsidiaries of the Operating Partnership, including Maguire Properties Services, Inc. (the Services Company) and its subsidiaries (collectively the Services Companies), we own, manage, lease, acquire and develop real estate located in the greater Los Angeles area of California consisting primarily of office properties, related parking garages and a hotel.
We were formed to succeed to certain businesses of the Maguire Properties predecessor, (the Predecessor), which was not a legal entity but rather a combination of numerous real estate entities collectively doing business as Maguire Partners, a nationally recognized owner, developer and acquirer of institutional-quality properties in the Los Angeles real estate market since 1965. We were incorporated, and the Operating Partnership was formed, in Maryland on June 26, 2002, and the Services Company was incorporated in Maryland on August 15, 2002, each in anticipation of our initial public offering of common stock (the Offering), which was consummated on June 27, 2003 concurrently with the consummation of various formation transactions that consolidated the ownership of our portfolio of properties and property interests, and a substantial majority of the real estate management, leasing and development business of the Predecessor, into the Operating Partnership and the Services Companies. From inception through June 27, 2003, neither we, the Operating Partnership nor the Services Companies had any operations.
On June 27, 2003, we commenced operations after completing the Offering, which consisted of the sale of 36,510,000 shares of common stock at a price per share of $19.00, generating gross proceeds of approximately $693.7 million. The aggregate proceeds to our company, net of underwriters discount and offering costs, were approximately $624.4 million. On July 8, 2003, we issued an additional 5,476,500 shares of common stock, and received an additional $104.1 million of gross proceeds and $97.6 million in net proceeds as a result of the exercise of the underwriters over-allotment option.
Our operations are carried on primarily through the Operating Partnership and its wholly owned subsidiaries, including the Services Companies. Pursuant to contribution agreements among the owners of the Predecessor and the Operating Partnership, the Operating Partnership received a contribution of direct and indirect interests in connection with the Offering in certain of the properties, as well as certain assets of the management, leasing and real estate development operations of the Predecessor in exchange for limited partnership units in the Operating Partnership (Units). The Operating Partnership also acquired additional interests in certain properties from unaffiliated parties, which were paid for in cash. As of September 30, 2003, our company held a 79.5% interest in the Operating Partnership.
We intend to elect the status of and qualify as a real estate investment trust (REIT) for federal income tax purposes.

1. | Organization and Description of Business (continued) |
Through the Operating Partnership we own or have an interest in a portfolio of 12 commercial real estate properties consisting of eight office properties with approximately 6.1 million net rentable square feet, a 350-room hotel with 266,000 square feet, and total on and off-site parking of approximately 3.1 million square feet, accommodating a capacity of over 10,700 vehicles and an undeveloped two-acre land parcel adjacent to an existing office property that we expect can support up to 300,000 net rentable square feet of office development. Through one of the Services Companies, we also manage and lease a 1.4 million square foot office, hotel and retail property located in the Dallas/Ft. Worth area, for which we earn customary fees and incentive fees.
Our portfolio is located in three Southern California markets the Los Angeles Central Business District (the LACBD), the Tri-Cities area of Pasadena, Glendale and Burbank and the Cerritos submarket. Our portfolio includes four office properties in the prime Bunker Hill area of the LACBD US Bank Tower, Gas Company Tower, KPMG Tower and Wells Fargo Tower and three off-site parking garages. In the Tri-Cities, our portfolio includes an office property and the Westin Pasadena Hotel located at Plaza Las Fuentes in Pasadena, California, the Glendale Center office property in Glendale, California and a two-acre land parcel adjacent to the Glendale Center. In the Cerritos submarket, we own the Cerritos Corporate Center Phase I and Phase II properties, collectively known as the AT&T Wireless Western Regional Headquarters.
The Operating Partnership has also entered into option agreements with entities controlled by Robert F. Maguire III, our Chairman and Co-Chief Executive Officer, under which we have the right to acquire a recently completed office property in Santa Monica, California with 91,000 net rentable square feet, an office property under development in the Tri-Cities that we expect to contain approximately 257,000 net rentable square feet upon completion and a 12.5% interest in an entity that owns two existing office buildings aggregating approximately 246,000 net rentable square feet and adjacent developable land, each in West Los Angeles, California. Based on current market and property conditions, it is uncertain as to whether we will exercise any of these options in the near future or whether market and property conditions will warrant our exercise of any of those options prior to their expiration.
2. | Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies |
The accompanying consolidated and combined financial statements include all of the accounts of Maguire Properties, Inc., the Operating Partnership and the subsidiaries of the Operating Partnership. Property interests contributed to the Operating Partnership by Mr. Robert F. Maguire III, and entities majority owned by him in exchange for Units are reflected in the financial statements at their historical basis of accounting. The remaining interests, which were acquired for cash and Units, have been accounted for as a purchase, and the excess of the purchase price over the related historical cost basis has been allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. We expect to finalize such allocations by December 31, 2003.

2. | Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) |
The combined financial statements of the Predecessor include interests in our properties and the property management, leasing, acquisition and real estate development business of Maguire Partners Development, Ltd. The real estate entities included in the consolidated and combined financial statements have been consolidated or combined only for the periods that such entities were under control by us or the Predecessor. The equity method of accounting is utilized to account for investments in real estate entities over which we or the Predecessor have significant influence, but not control over major decisions, including the decision to sell or refinance the properties owned by such entities. On August 29, 2003, we acquired all of the third party interests in Glendale Center (as described in Note 9) and as of September 30, 2003, none of our real estate entities were accounted for under the equity method of accounting. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated for the consolidated and combined financial statements.
The accompanying interim financial statements are unaudited, but have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) for interim financial information and in conjunction with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, they do not include all of the disclosures required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring matters) necessary for a fair presentation of the financial statements for these interim periods have been included. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be obtained for the full fiscal year. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with our companys prospectus dated June 24, 2003 and the combined financial statements and notes thereto of the Predecessor included therein.
Income Taxes
As a REIT, we will be permitted to deduct distributions paid to our stockholders, eliminating the federal taxation of income represented by such distributions at the company level. REITs are subject to a number of organizational and operational requirements. If we fail to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, we will be subject to federal income tax (including any applicable alternative minimum tax) on our taxable income at regular corporate tax rates.
We have elected to treat the Services Company as a taxable REIT subsidiary (a TRS). In general, a TRS may perform non-customary services for tenants, hold assets that we cannot hold directly and generally may engage in any real estate or non-real estate related business (except for the operation or management of health care facilities or lodging facilities or the provision to any person, under a franchise, license or otherwise, rights to any brand name under which any lodging facility or health care facility is operated). A TRS is subject to corporate federal income taxes on its taxable income at regular corporate tax rates. For the periods presented in the accompanying statements of operations there is no tax provision for the TRS.

Earnings per Share
Earnings per share is calculated based on the weighted average number of shares of our common stock outstanding during the period. The assumed exercise of outstanding stock options and the effect of the vesting of unvested restricted stock that has been granted or has been committed to be granted, all using the treasury stock method, are not dilutive for the period from June 27, 2003 to September 30, 2003.
The following is a summary of the elements used in calculating basic and diluted earnings per share in thousands except share and per share amounts:

Stock Options
We apply the intrinsic value method in accounting for stock options issued under our incentive award plan from the date of consummation of the Offering. Accordingly, we did not record any compensation expense related to such options. The stock-based compensation cost that we would have recorded from July 1, 2003 to September 30, 2003, had we used the fair value method, would have been $45,000.
Reclassifications
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

3. | Minority Interests |
Minority interests relate to the interests in the Operating Partnership that are not owned by our company, which, at September 30, 2003, amounted to 20.5%. In conjunction with the formation of our company, certain persons and entities contributing interests in properties to the Operating Partnership received Units. Limited partners who acquired Units in the formation transactions have the right, commencing on or after August 27, 2004, to require the Operating Partnership to redeem part or all of their Units for cash based upon the fair market value of an equivalent number of shares of our common stock at the time of the redemption. Alternatively, we may elect to acquire those Units in exchange for shares of our common stock on a one-for-one basis, subject to adjustment in the event of stock splits, stock dividends, issuance of stock rights, specified extraordinary distributions and similar events. Upon consummation of the Offering, 22.8% of the carrying value of the net assets of the Operating Partnership was allocated to minority interests. As a result of the exercise of the underwriters over-allotment option of 5,476,500 shares on July 8, 2003 the minority interests were reduced to 20.5%.

4 | Two one-year extensions are available. |
The terms of our mortgage and mezzanine loans do not permit us to prepay the loans during specified lockout periods. We are permitted to defease the US Bank Tower and Wells Fargo Tower mortgage loans. The Gas Company Tower and 808 South Olive Garage mortgage and mezzanine loans can each be repaid during the lockout period if the lender consents, subject to a prepayment penalty of 5% of the outstanding principal amount of the loan. The KPMG Tower mortgage loan requires a prepayment penalty based on a formula described in the loan agreement.

4. | Debt (continued) |
Certain mortgage and other secured loans aggregating $958.5 million were repaid or defeased in June 2003 concurrent with the Offering, and the $37.0 million Glendale Center mortgage was defeased on August 29, 2003 concurrent with the acquisition of the third party interests in Glendale Center. Those repayments and defeasances resulted in prepayment penalties, exit fees and defeasance costs. Such costs along with the write-off of unamortized loan costs, net of loan premiums recorded upon assumption of the debt that was repaid, are presented as loss from early extinguishment of debt in the accompanying statements of operations.
The Operating Partnership has a secured revolving credit facility with a group of banks led by Citicorp North America, Inc. and Wachovia Bank, N.A. The credit facility provides for borrowings up to $100 million ($75.0 million is currently available to us) and bears interest at a rate ranging between LIBOR + 1.375% and LIBOR + 2.125% depending on the Operating Partnerships overall leverage. This credit facility matures in June 2006 with an option to extend the term for one year.
The terms of our credit facility include certain restrictions and covenants, which limit, among other things, the payment of dividends (as discussed below), the incurrence of additional indebtedness and liens and the disposition of assets. The terms also require compliance with financial ratios relating to the minimum amounts of tangible net worth, debt service coverage, fixed charge coverage and unencumbered property debt service coverage, the maximum amount of unsecured indebtedness, and certain investment limitations. The dividend restriction referred to above provides that, except to enable us to continue to qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, we will not during any four consecutive fiscal quarters make distributions with respect to common stock or other equity interests in an aggregate amount in excess of 95% of funds from operations for such period, subject to certain other adjustments. As of September 30, 2003, we were in compliance with all such covenants.
We have agreed to use commercially reasonable efforts to make an aggregate $591.8 million of indebtedness available for guarantee by Mr. Robert F. Maguire III, certain entities owned and controlled by Robert F. Maguire III and an entity controlled by certain former senior executives of Maguire Partners. As of September 30, 2003, $591.8 million of our debt is subject to such guarantees.
5. | Incentive Award Plan |
We have adopted the Amended and Restated 2003 Incentive Award Plan of Maguire Properties, Inc., Maguire Properties Services, Inc. and Maguire Properties, L.P., (the Incentive Award Plan). The Incentive Award Plan provides for the grant to employees, directors and consultants of our company, the Operating Partnership and the Services Companies (and their respective subsidiaries) of stock options, restricted stock, dividend equivalents, stock appreciation rights and other incentive awards. We have reserved a total of 4,816,861 shares of our common stock for issuance pursuant to the Incentive Award Plan, subject to certain adjustments as set

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED AND COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

forth in the plan. Of this amount, 659,211 shares of restricted stock (343,421 were fully-vested) with an aggregate value of $12,525,000 were issued upon consummation of the Offering. In addition, we have committed to grant to certain officers no later than one year following the consummation of the Offering shares of restricted stock with an aggregate value of $5,000,000. We have also granted options to certain of our officers and independent directors to purchase 530,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $19.00 per share.
6. | Interest Rate Swap Agreements |
In connection with the Offering, we entered into interest rate swap agreements to fix the floating interest rate associated with the $250 million Gas Company Tower and 808 South Olive Garage mortgage loan and $72 million of the KPMG Tower mortgage loan (see note 10). Net amounts received or paid under these agreements are recognized as an adjustment to interest expense when such amounts are incurred or earned. Our objective in using interest rate swap agreements is to effectively convert floating rate debt into fixed rate debt, and thereby limit our exposure to interest rate movements.
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133 Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities (SFAS 133), as amended and interpreted by SFAS 138 and SFAS 149, establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments and for hedging activities. The accounting for changes in the fair value of derivatives depends on the intended use of the derivative and the resulting designation. Derivatives used to hedge the exposure to changes in the fair value of an asset, liability, or firm commitment attributable to a particular risk, are considered fair value hedges. Derivatives used to hedge the exposure to variability in expected future cash flows, or other types of forecasted transactions, are considered cash flow hedges.
For derivatives designated as fair value hedges, changes in the fair value of the derivative and the hedged item related to the hedged risk are recognized in earnings. For derivatives designated as cash flow hedges, the effective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative is initially reported in other comprehensive income (loss), outside of earnings and subsequently recognized to earnings when the hedged transaction affects earnings.
Under SFAS 133, our interest rate swap agreements are classified as cash flow hedges with their fair value as of September 30, 2003 of approximately $5.1 million, reported in accumulated other comprehensive income on our consolidated balance sheet net of the minority interest share of $1.1 million. The estimated fair value of these interest rate swap agreements is dependent on changes in market interest rates and other market factors that affect the value of such agreements. Consequently, the estimated current fair values may significantly change during the term of the agreements. If the underlying floating rate loans were to be repaid prior to maturity, we would recognize in interest expense any unamortized gain or loss at the time of such early repayment.

From June 27, 2003 through August 29, 2003 we had an investment in Glendale Center, which we accounted for using the equity method.

We have two reportable segments, office and hotel. The components of the office segment include rental of office, retail and storage space to tenants, parking and other tenant services. The components of the hotel segment include rooms, food and beverage, and other services to hotel guests.
Since we do not allocate investment in real estate between the hotel and the office portions of the Plaza Las Fuentes property, separate information related to investment in real estate, expenditures for investments in real estate, and depreciation and amortization is not available for the office and hotel segments.

9. | Property Acquisitions (continued) |
On August 29, 2003, we acquired all of the third party interests in Glendale Center, a 14-story office building totaling 383,000 square feet located in Glendale, for aggregate consideration of $64.0 million, excluding acquisition costs. The acquisition consisted of purchasing BankAmerica Realty Services Inc.s ownership interest for $53.0 million and Disney Enterprises distribution participation rights for $11.0 million. Concurrently we defeased the existing $37.0 million property mortgage, which is described in Note 4. We utilized available cash to make the purchase and complete the defeasance.
The pro forma information included below is presented as if the interests in our properties had been acquired as of the first day of the periods presented. Additionally, to provide meaningful pro forma information related to acquisitions of real estate interests, we have included interest expense as if our debt structure in place upon the consummation of the Offering was in place as of the beginning of the periods presented. Included in the 2003 information presented below is the loss on extinguishment of debt totaling approximately $53.4 million and compensation expense of $14.2 million related to the consummation of the Offering and the acquisition of the third party interests in Glendale Center; no pro forma adjustments have been made related to these expenses.

The acquisition will be financed in part with a $146.3 million seven-year mortgage loan at an interest rate of 4.73% from Metropolitan Life Insurance Company. The remainder will be financed with proceeds from the Glendale Center loan described below. The acquisition is expected to close in November 2003 after the period covered by this report.

ITEM 2. | MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS |
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this report. This report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws. We caution investors that any forward-looking statements presented in this report, or which management may make orally or in writing from time to time, are based on managements beliefs and assumptions made by, and information currently available to, management. When used, the words anticipate, believe, expect, intend, may, might, plan, estimate, project, should, will, result and similar expressions, which do not relate solely to historical matters, are intended to identify forward looking statements. Such statements are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions and may be affected by known and unknown risks, trends, uncertainties and factors that are beyond our control. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those anticipated, estimated or projected. We caution you that while forward-looking statements reflect our good faith beliefs when we make them, they are not guarantees of future performance and are impacted by actual events when they occur after we make such statements. We expressly disclaim any responsibility to update forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Accordingly, investors should use caution in relying on past forward-looking statements, which are based on results and trends at the time they were made, to anticipate future results or trends.
Some of the risks and uncertainties that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from those expressed or implied by forward-looking statements include, among others, the following: general risks affecting the real estate industry (including, without limitation, the inability to enter into or renew leases, dependence on tenants financial condition, and competition from other developers, owners and operators of real estate); risks associated with the availability and terms of financing and the use of debt to fund acquisitions and developments; failure to manage effectively our growth and expansion into new markets or to integrate acquisitions successfully; risks and uncertainties affecting property development and construction (including, without limitation, construction delays, cost overruns, inability to obtain necessary permits and public opposition to such activities); risks associated with downturns in the national and local economies, increases in interest rates, and volatility in the securities markets; costs of compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act and other similar laws; potential liability for uninsured losses and environmental contamination; risks associated with our companys potential failure to qualify as a real estate investment trust (REIT) under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and possible adverse changes in tax and environmental laws; and risks associated with our dependence on key personnel whose continued service is not guaranteed.
The risks included here are not exhaustive, and additional factors could adversely affect our business and financial performance, including factors and risks included in other sections of this report. In addition, we discussed a number of material risks in our prospectus dated June 24, 2003. Those risks continue to be relevant to our performance and financial condition. Moreover, we operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risk factors emerge from time to time and it is not possible for management to predict all such risk factors, nor can it assess the impact of all such risk factors on our companys business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. Given these risks and uncertainties, investors should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements as a prediction of actual results.

Overview
Our results of operations for the three month and nine month periods ended September 30, 2003 and 2002 include the consolidation or combination of the entities that own Plaza Las Fuentes (which includes the Westin Pasadena Hotel), Gas Company Tower, 808 South Olive Garage and our property management, leasing and real estate development operations for all periods presented. Through June 26, 2003, Wells Fargo Tower and US Bank Tower were accounted for using the equity method of accounting and thereafter using the consolidation method of accounting as a result of our purchases of the third party interests in these properties on June 27, 2003. On June 27, 2003 we also purchased Cerritos Corporate Center Phase I and Phase II from a third party and accordingly the results of operations of these properties are included in our results of operations beginning June 27, 2003. We continued to use the equity method of accounting for our investment in Glendale Center until August 29, 2003 when we began consolidating upon purchase of the third party interests in this property. Additionally, on September 13, 2002, we acquired all of the third partys interests in KPMG Tower. As a result, we have consolidated the entities owning KPMG Tower for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2003 and accounted for our investment in KPMG Tower using the equity method of accounting for periods prior to September 13, 2002.
Results of Operations
Comparison of Three Months ended September 30, 2003 to Three Months ended September 30, 2002 |
Total Revenues |
Rental Revenues. Rental revenues increased $23.3 million, or 217.8%, to $34.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2003 compared to $10.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2002.

Revenues from tenant reimbursements increased $11.0 million, or 215.7%, to $16.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2003 compared to $5.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2002. The increase was primarily due to the inclusion of tenant reimbursements for the properties discussed in Overview, above, as a result of acquiring the third party interests in these properties.
Hotel Operations. Hotel operations remained constant at $4.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2003, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2002.

Parking revenues increased $4.5 million, or 236.8%, to $6.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2003 compared to $1.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2002. The increase was primarily due to the inclusion of parking revenues for the properties discussed in Overview, above, as a result of acquiring the third party interests in these properties.
Management, Leasing and Development Services to Affiliates Revenue. Management, leasing and development services to affiliates revenue decreased $1.5 million, or 53.6%, to $1.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2003 compared to $2.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2002. The decrease relates primarily to increased elimination of inter-company management and leasing fees for the three months ended September 30, 2003, resulting
20
from our increased ownership percentages in our properties compared to our ownership percentages for the three months ended September 30, 2002. The decrease was partially offset by $0.9 million in development fees recognized for the Western Asset Plaza development for the three months ended September 30, 2003. Pursuant to the development agreement between us and the entity that owns Western Asset Plaza, which entity is controlled by Mr. Maguire, these development fees are not payable until the property is stabilized and certain leasing and financial performance benchmarks have been attained or, at the latest, May 31, 2005. Development work at Western Asset Plaza is ongoing and we anticipate earning additional development fees, subject to these same payment provisions, in the near term.
Total Expenses |
Rental Property Operating and Maintenance Expenses. Rental property operating and maintenance expenses increased $9.0 million, or 183.7%, to $13.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2003 compared to $4.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2002. The increase was primarily due to the inclusion of rental property operating and maintenance expenses for the properties discussed in Overview, above, as a result of acquiring the third party interests in these properties.
Real Estate Taxes. Real estate taxes increased $3.8 million, or 380.0%, to $4.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2003 compared to $1.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2002. The increase was primarily due to the inclusion of real estate taxes for the properties discussed in Overview, above, as a result of acquiring the third party interests in these properties. Additionally, during the three months ended September 30, 2003, we began accruing estimated increases in property taxes that we may incur as a result of the changes in ownership of the properties in connection with the Offering.
General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses decreased $1.4 million, or 28.6%, to $3.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2003 compared to $4.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2002. The decrease was primarily due to bonuses paid to a former employee for the three months ended September 30, 2002 and the relocation expenses and signing bonus related to the hiring of an officer of the company, during the three months ended September 30, 2002, offset by factors such as the addition of new personnel after the Offering, the addition of expenses relating to operating a public company, an increase in compensation expense related to unvested stock compensation awards accrued during the three months ended September 30, 2003 and increases resulting from the consolidation of the properties discussed in Overview, above.
Depreciation and Amortization Expense. Depreciation and amortization expense increased $9.8 million, or 251.3%, to $13.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2003 compared to $3.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2002. The increase was primarily due to the inclusion of depreciation and amortization expense for the properties discussed in Overview, above, as a result of acquiring the third party interests in these properties.
Interest Expense. Interest expense increased $2.3 million, or 24.5%, to $11.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2003 compared to $9.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2002. This is primarily due to the consolidation of US Bank Tower and Wells Fargo Tower for the three months ended September 30, 2003 and the consolidation of KPMG
21
Tower for the full three months ended September 30, 2003, whereas for the three months ended September 30, 2002 it was only combined after its acquisition on September 13, 2002. These increases were partially offset by decreases in interest resulting from the refinancing of our loans at the consummation of the Offering.
Loss from Early Extinguishment of Debt. Loss from early extinguishment of debt decreased $1.6 million to $2.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2003 compared to $4.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2002. The 2003 loss on extinguishment of debt is due to defeasance costs incurred and the write-off of unamortized loan costs, net of loan premiums recorded upon assumption of the debt, when the mortgage loan on Glendale Center was defeased on August 29, 2003. The 2002 loss on extinguishment of debt was due to the prepayment penalty incurred and reversal of the loan discount net of the change in estimate related to the accrued lender participation for the KPMG Tower mortgage, which was refinanced on September 13, 2002.
Minority Interests. Minority interests increased $1.9 million, to $1.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2003, as a result of allocating 22.8% of the consolidated income before minority interests to the limited partner unit holders of the Operating Partnership for the period July 1, 2003 to July 8, 2003 and 20.5% thereafter. The decrease in the percentage allocation resulted from the exercise of the underwriters over-allotment option. Minority interests for the three months ended September 30, 2002 related to a minority interest held by a third party in the Gas Company Tower, which we acquired upon consummation of the Offering.
Comparison of Nine Months ended September 30, 2003 to Nine Months ended September 30, 2002 |
Total Revenues |
Rental Revenues. Rental revenue increased $33.9 million, or 112.6%, to $64.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 compared to $30.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2002. The increase was primarily due to the inclusion of rental revenues for the properties discussed in Overview, above, as a result of acquiring the third party interests in these properties.
Tenant Reimbursements. Revenues from tenant reimbursements increased $17.0 million, or 132.8%, to $29.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 compared to $12.8 million for the full nine months ended September 30, 2002. The increase was primarily due to the inclusion of tenant reimbursements for the properties discussed in Overview, above, as a result of acquiring the third party interests in these properties.
Hotel Operations. Revenues from hotel operations decreased $1.6 million, or 10.7%, to $13.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 compared to $14.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2002. The decrease was primarily due to lower occupancy and lower room rates. Occupancy decreased in part due to several well-attended local events during the nine months ended September 30, 2002 that did not recur during the nine months ended September 30, 2003. Occupancy also decreased in part as a result of reduced travel in general during the nine months ended September 30, 2003 due to the expectation of war with Iraq and, beginning March 19, 2003, the outbreak of war with Iraq, as well as lower advance bookings by our former manager who was replaced when we converted from a Doubletree to Westin Hotel in late December 2002.
22
Parking Revenues. Parking revenue increased $7.2 million, or 144.0%, to $12.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 compared to $5.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2002. The increase was primarily due to the inclusion of parking revenues for the properties discussed in Overview, above, as a result of acquiring the third party interests in these properties.
Management, Leasing and Development Services to Affiliates Revenue. Management, leasing and development services to affiliates revenue decreased $2.4 million, or 39.3%, to $3.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 compared to $6.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2002. The decrease relates primarily to increased elimination of intercompany management and leasing fees for the nine months ended September 30, 2003, resulting from our increased ownership percentages in our properties compared to our ownership percentages for the nine months ended September 30, 2002. Also, there were $0.8 million in development fees recognized for the Waters Edge development in the nine months ended September 30, 2002, which did not recur in the nine months ended September 30, 2003. All of these factors were partially offset by a $0.9 million increase in development fees recognized for the Western Asset Plaza development for the nine months ended September 30, 2003. Pursuant to the development agreement between us and the entity that owns Western Asset Plaza, which entity is controlled by Mr. Maguire, these development fees are not payable until the property is stabilized and certain leasing and financial performance benchmarks have been attained or, at the latest, May 31, 2005. Development work at Western Asset Plaza is ongoing and we anticipate earning additional development fees, subject to these same payment provisions, in the near term.
Interest and other revenue. Interest and other revenue increased $2.7 million, to $2.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 compared to $0.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2002. The increase was due primarily to a $2.3 million lease termination fee received from a former tenant at Gas Company Tower, earned on June 27, 2003 and a lease termination fee from a tenant at KPMG Tower who vacated a portion of their space during the nine months ended September 30, 2003 and an increase in interest income due to increased average balances in interest bearing cash equivalents.
Total Expenses |
Rental Property Operating and Maintenance Expenses. Rental property operating and maintenance expenses increased $15.4 million, or 140.0%, to $26.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 compared to $11.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2002. The increase was primarily due to the inclusion of rental property operating and maintenance expenses for the properties discussed in Overview, above, as a result of acquiring the third party interests in these properties.
Hotel Operating and Maintenance Expenses. Hotel operating and maintenance expenses decreased $0.2 million, or 1.9%, to $10.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 compared to $10.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2002. The decrease was primarily due to decreased variable costs related to decreased occupancy offset by increased costs related to the Westin transition.
Real Estate Taxes. Real estate taxes increased $5.1 million, or 182.1%, to $7.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 compared to $2.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2002. The increase was primarily due to the inclusion of real estate taxes for the properties discussed in Overview, above, as a result of acquiring the third party interests in these properties.
23
General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses increased $14.1 million, or 111.9%, to $26.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 compared to $12.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2002. The increase was primarily due to compensation expense related to the fully vested restricted stock issued to certain employees, cash paid to those employees for their related tax obligations, accrued compensation expense related to unvested stock awards, the addition of new personnel after the Offering, the addition of expenses relating to operating a public company, and the consolidation of the properties discussed in Overview, above, for the nine months ended September 30, 2003. This was offset by the relocation expenses and signing bonus related to the hiring of an officer of the company and a guaranteed bonus through April 2002 for a former employee, during the nine months ended September 30, 2002. Included in general and administrative expenses for both the nine months ended September 30, 2003 and 2002 are $2.0 million of transaction related bonuses to a former employee, which are non-recurring.
Depreciation and Amortization Expense. Depreciation and amortization expense increased $14.3 million, or 127.7%, to $25.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 compared to $11.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2002. The increase was primarily due to the inclusion of depreciation and amortization expense for the properties discussed in Overview, above, as a result of acquiring the third party interests in these properties.
Interest Expense. Interest expense increased $10.5 million, or 39.2%, to $37.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 compared to $26.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2002. The increase was due in part to the consolidation of KPMG Tower for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 and the consolidation of US Bank Tower and Wells Fargo Tower for the period from June 27, 2003 to September 30, 2003. The increase also resulted from interest expense associated with the $64.3 million reverse purchase agreement obtained on February 5, 2003 through the consummation of the Offering in connection with purchasing additional interests in Wells Fargo Tower, partially offset by decreases in interest expense resulting from paying off the Plaza Las Fuentes loan upon consummation of the Offering, reduced principal balances on our Gas Company Tower and 808 South Olive Garage mezzanine loans and lower borrowing rates on our variable rate debt for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2002.
Loss from Early Extinguishment of Debt. Loss from early extinguishment of debt increased $49.4 million to $53.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2003, compared to $4.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2002. The 2003 loss on extinguishment of debt is primarily due to prepayment penalties, exit fees, defeasance costs and the write-off of unamortized loan costs, net of loan premiums recorded upon assumption of the debt, when certain mortgages and other loans were repaid or defeased upon consummation of the Offering, as well as defeasance of the Glendale Center mortgage loan on August 29, 2003. The 2002 loss on extinguishment of debt was due to the prepayment penalty incurred and reversal of the loan discount offset by the change in estimate related to the accrued lender participation for the KPMG Tower mortgage, which was refinanced on September 13, 2002.
Other Expenses. Other expenses increased $11.0 million, to $11.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 compared to $0.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2002. The increase was primarily due to the $5.0 million net cost of swaptions purchased prior to the Offering as a hedge against interest rate movements on debt we incurred upon consummation of the Offering, accrued transfer taxes of $1.2 million related to the Offering,
24
write-off of $1.8 million of capitalized costs relating to a terminated lease, and the $3.0 million write-off of amounts due from an excluded property.
Equity in Net Income (Loss) of Real Estate Entities. Equity in net income (loss) of uncombined real estate entities increased $2.4 million, to $1.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 compared to $(0.8) million for the nine months ended September 30, 2002. The increase was primarily due to the net loss in KPMG Tower as an uncombined real estate affiliate for the period through its acquisition on September 13, 2002; for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 KPMG Tower was consolidated. We also recorded a larger share of net income on Wells Fargo Tower resulting from acquiring an additional interest in the property on February 5, 2003, and Glendale Center experienced a net loss resulting from a change in estimate related to tenant participation rights resulting from the expected purchase of such rights. We also began consolidating Wells Fargo Tower and US Bank Tower instead of using the equity method beginning June 27, 2003 as discussed in Overview, above.
Minority Interests. Minority interests increased to $(11.5) million for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 compared to $(0.3) million for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 as a result of allocating 22.8% of the consolidated loss before minority interests to the limited partner unit holders of the Operating Partnership for the period from June 27, 2003, upon consummation of the Offering, to July 8, 2003, and 20.5% thereafter. The decrease in the percentage allocated resulted from the exercise of the underwriters over-allotment option. Minority interests for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 related to a minority interest held by a third party in the Gas Company Tower, which we acquired upon consummation of the Offering.
Funds From Operations
We calculate funds from operations, or FFO, as defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, or NAREIT, FFO represents net income (loss) (computed in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, or GAAP), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of property, real estate related depreciation and amortization (excluding amortization of deferred financing costs) and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures.
Management uses FFO as a supplemental performance measure because, in excluding real estate related depreciation and amortization and gains and losses from property dispositions, it provides a performance measure that, when compared year over year, captures trends in occupancy rates, rental rates and operating costs. We also believe that, as a widely recognized measure of the performance of REITs, FFO will be used by investors as a basis to compare our operating performance with that of other REITs.
However, because FFO excludes depreciation and amortization and captures neither the changes in the value of our properties that result from use or market conditions nor the level of capital expenditures and leasing commissions necessary to maintain the operating performance of our properties, all of which have real economic effect and could materially impact our results from operations, the utility of FFO as a measure of our performance is limited. Other equity REITs may not calculate FFO in accordance with the NAREIT definition and, accordingly, our FFO may not be comparable to such other REITs FFO. Accordingly, FFO should be considered only as a supplement to net income as a measure of our performance. FFO should not be used as a measure of our liquidity, nor is it indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs, including
25
our ability to pay dividends or make distributions. FFO also should not be used as a supplement to or substitute for cash flow from operating activities computed in accordance with GAAP.
The following table reconciles the Companys FFO to the Companys net income for the three months ended September 30, 2003:

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Available Borrowings, Cash Balances and Capital Resources
The Operating Partnership has a secured revolving credit facility with a group of banks led by Citicorp North America, Inc. and Wachovia Bank, N.A. The credit facility provides for borrowings up to $100 million ($75.0 million is currently available to us) and bears interest at a rate ranging between LIBOR + 1.375% and LIBOR + 2.125% depending on the Operating Partnerships overall leverage. This credit facility matures in June 2006 with an option to extend the term for one year; we currently have not drawn on the credit facility.
Distributions
We are required to distribute 90% of our REIT taxable income (excluding capital gains) on an annual basis in order to qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes. Accordingly, we intend to make, but are not contractually bound to make, regular quarterly distributions to common stockholders and holders of common stock equivalents from cash flow from operating activities. All such distributions are at the discretion of the Board of Directors. We may be required to use borrowings under the credit facility, if necessary, to meet REIT distribution requirements and maintain our REIT status. We consider market factors and the company performance in addition to REIT requirements in determining distribution levels. Amounts accumulated for distribution to stockholders are invested primarily in interest-bearing accounts and short-term interest-bearing securities, which are consistent with the Companys intention to maintain its qualification as a REIT.
The holders of record of the companys common stock and common stock equivalents are entitled to dividends payable based on $0.40 per share per full quarter for the quarter ended September 30, 2003. On September 15, 2003, the Board of Directors declared the companys first dividend to shareholders and Unit holders of record on September 30, 2003, totaling
26
$22,402,000, or $0.4176 per common share. This dividend consists of the regular quarterly dividend of $0.40 per common share for the period from July 1, 2003 through September 30, 2003 and a pro rata dividend of $0.0176 per common share covering the period from the consummation of the Offering on June 27, 2003 through June 30, 2003. This dividend is equivalent to an annual rate of $1.60 per share. The dividend was paid on October 31, 2003.
Recent Developments
On August 29, 2003, we acquired all of the third party interests in Glendale Center, a 14-story office building totaling 383,000 square feet and located in Glendale, for $64.0 million, excluding acquisition costs. The acquisition consisted of purchasing BankAmerica Realty Services Inc.s ownership interest for $53.0 million and Disney Enterprises tenant distribution rights for $11.0 million. Concurrently we defeased the existing $37.0 million property mortgage for $43.7 million ($4.5 million of which was offset against loan premiums recorded in connection with purchase accounting entries). The acquisition was financed with available cash. This property was previously accounted for as an investment in an unconsolidated real estate entity.
On October 6, 2003 we announced that we had entered into an agreement to purchase One California Plaza, a 982,000 square foot 42-story building located in Bunker Hill for approximately $225.0 million from Metropolitan Life Insurance Company. The acquisition will be financed in part with a $146.3 million seven-year mortgage loan at an interest rate of 4.73% from Metropolitan Life Insurance Company. The remainder will be financed with proceeds from the Glendale Center loan described below. The acquisition is expected to close in November 2003, after the period covered by this report.
On October 10, 2003 we sold the $72.0 million interest rate swap agreement associated with $72.0 million of the floating rate KPMG Tower mortgage for $1.6 million.
On October 14, 2003 we closed on a ten-year $80.0 million loan with Greenwich Capital Financial Products secured by Glendale Center. This mortgage matures in November 2013 and interest is fixed at 5.73%. The proceeds are intended to be used to finance part of the One California Plaza acquisition described above.
As of September 30, 2003, we had $92.9 million in cash and cash equivalents, including $43.8 million in restricted cash. Restricted cash primarily consists of interest bearing cash deposits required by our mortgage loans and cash impound accounts for real estate taxes and insurance and leasing reserves as required by several of our mortgage loans. As of September 30, 2003, approximately $25.4 million of tenant improvement and leasing commission reserves remain from the $35.2 million that was reserved upon consummation of the Offering.
We expect to meet our short-term liquidity and capital requirements from existing unrestricted cash and cash equivalents and generally through net cash provided by operating activities and proceeds from our credit facility. We believe these sources of liquidity will be sufficient to fund our short-term liquidity needs over the next twelve months, including recurring non-revenue enhancing capital expenditures, tenant improvements and leasing commissions.
We expect to meet our long-term liquidity and capital requirements such as scheduled principal repayments, development costs, property acquisitions, if any, and other non-recurring capital expenditures through net cash provided by operations, and refinancing of existing indebtedness, potential sales of ownership interests in our existing properties and the issuance of long-term debt and equity securities.
27
Indebtedness
At September 30, 2003, borrowings under our mortgages and other secured loans, represented 47.2% of our total market capitalization of $2.1 billion (based on a common stock price of $20.50 per share, the closing price of our common stock on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) on September 30, 2003). Total market capitalization includes the value of our consolidated debt, common stock and Units.

The credit facility and certain other secured debt agreements contain covenants and restrictions requiring the company to meet certain financial ratios and reporting requirements. Some of the more restrictive covenants include minimum debt service coverage ratios, a maximum total liabilities to total assets ratio, a maximum total secured debt to total assets ratio, a minimum cash flow to debt service and fixed charges ratio, a minimum consolidated tangible net worth and a limitation of development activities as compared to total assets. Non-compliance with any one or more of the covenants and restrictions could result in the full or partial principal balance of the associated debt becoming immediately due and payable. The company was in compliance with all its covenants at September 30, 2003.
Cash Flows
Comparison of Nine Months Ended September 30, 2003 to Nine Months Ended September 30, 2002 |
Cash and cash equivalents were $49.1 million and $3.8 million, respectively, at September 30, 2003 and 2002.
Net cash used in operating activities increased $83.5 million to $(87.3) million for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 compared to ($3.8) million for the nine months ended September 30, 2002. The increase was primarily due to $79.5 million of prepayment penalties, exit fees and defeasance costs paid to extinguish debt, of which only $53.4 million is included in the net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 as $33.6 million of the costs were offset against loan premiums recorded as purchase accounting entries and $7.5 million of unamortized loan costs were expensed as a component of the loss on extinguishment.
Net cash used in investing activities increased $340.8 million to $(367.3) million for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 compared to $(26.5) million for the nine months ended September 30, 2002. The increase was primarily due to $363.7 million paid to acquire interests in real estate entities, primarily comprised of our purchase of Cerritos Corporate Center Phases I and II for $79.0 million and our purchase of additional interests in our existing properties including US Bank Tower for $86.0 million, Wells Fargo Tower for $138.8 million, and Glendale Center
29
for $53.0 million. Additionally, the Company purchased a tenant participation right in Glendale Center for $11.0 million. The increases described above were offset primarily by changes in restricted cash.
Net cash provided by financing activities increased $468.8 million to $500.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 compared to $31.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2002. The increase was primarily due to the net proceeds received from the sale of our stock on June 27, 2003 and the exercise of the underwriters over-allotment option on July 8, 2003, offset by the net reduction in outstanding debt, the increase in the net distributions paid to owners of the Predecessor and the decrease in proceeds received from real estate entities during the nine months ended September 30, 2003 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2002.
Inflation
Substantially all of our office leases provide for separate real estate tax and operating expense escalations. In addition, many of the leases provide for fixed base rent increases. We believe that inflationary increases may be at least partially offset by the contractual rent increases and expense escalations described above. Our hotel property is able to change room rates on a daily basis, so the impact of higher inflation can often be passed on to customers. However, a weak economic environment may restrict our ability to raise room rates to offset rising costs.
ITEM 3. | QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK |
Our future income, cash flows and fair values of financial instruments are dependent upon prevalent market interest rates. Market risk refers to the risk of loss from adverse changes in market prices and interest rates. We use some derivative financial instruments to manage, or hedge, interest rate risks related to our borrowings. We do not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes and only enter into contracts with major financial institutions based on their credit rating and other factors.
As of September 30, 2003, we had outstanding approximately $985.0 million of consolidated debt, of which approximately $475.0 million, or 48.2% of our total consolidated debt, was variable rate debt. With respect to the $475.0 million principal amount of the variable rate debt, we have entered into two four-year interest rate swap agreements in the amount of $250.0 million and $72.0 million, to effectively fix the index (LIBOR) portion of the interest rates at approximately 2.17% and 2.41%, respectively. As a result, as of September 30, 2003, approximately 84.5% of our total indebtedness was subject to fixed interest rates for a minimum of four years.
To determine the fair value, the fixed rate debt is discounted at a rate based on an estimate of current lending rates, assuming the debt is outstanding through maturity and considering the notes collateral. At September 30, 2003 the fair value of the fixed rate debt is estimated to be $486.0 million compared to the carrying value of $510.0 million.
If, after consideration of the interest rate swaps described above, LIBOR were to increase by 10%, or approximately 11 basis points, the increase in interest expense on the unhedged variable rate debt would decrease future earnings and cash flows by approximately $0.2 million annually. If LIBOR were to increase by 10%, the fair value of our $510.0 million principal amount of
30
outstanding fixed rate debt would decrease by approximately $0.4 million and the fair market value of our swap agreements would increase by $1.3 million. If LIBOR were to decrease by 10%, or approximately 11 basis points, the decrease in interest expense on the unhedged variable rate debt would be approximately $0.2 million annually. If LIBOR were to decrease by 10%, the fair value of our $510.0 million principal amount of outstanding fixed rate debt would increase by approximately $0.4 million and the fair value of our swap agreements would decrease by $1.3 million. As a result of the $80.0 million Glendale Center mortgage loan, the sale of the $72.0 million swap and assuming the closing of the anticipated $146.3 million mortgage on One California Plaza, our fixed rate debt percentage would be 81.4% of the total expected $1,211.3 million debt outstanding upon the closing of the One California Plaza acquisition and financing.
Interest risk amounts were determined by considering the impact of hypothetical interest rates on our financial instruments. These analyses do not consider the effect of any change in overall economic activity that could occur in that environment. Further, in the event of a change of that magnitude, we may take actions to further mitigate our exposure to the change. However, due to the uncertainty of the specific actions that would be taken and their possible effects, these analyses assume no changes in our financial structure.

ITEM 4. | CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES |
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We have adopted and maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commissions rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Co-Chief Executive Officers and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
31
As required by SEC Rule 13a-15(b), we have carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our Co-Chief Executive Officers and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the quarter covered by this report. Based on the foregoing, our Co-Chief Executive Officers and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.
There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting during our most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.
PART II. | OTHER INFORMATION |
ITEM 1. | LEGAL PROCEEDINGS |
Tax Litigation Matter
We are facing a tax litigation matter, which was filed in the United States Tax Court on September 18, 2000, and which relates to depreciation of the cost of certain development rights that we paid to the Community Redevelopment Agency of the City of Los Angeles in connection with the development of US Bank Tower and Gas Company Tower. The IRS asserts that these costs should be treated as non-depreciable costs associated with the land. If the IRSs view were to prevail in tax court, we would lose approximately $3.5 million in depreciation deductions in each of the next ten fiscal years. Trial is scheduled to begin in March, 2004 and a decision in the matter is expected sometime in 2004. Although an outcome cannot be predicted with any certainty, we intend to contest all asserted claims vigorously and we believe that there will be no material impact on the company in connection with this matter.
Other Litigation or Claims
In the ordinary course of our business, we are frequently subject to tort claims and other claims and administrative proceedings, none of which we believe would have a material adverse effect on us unless otherwise indicated.

(d) On June 27, 2003, we consummated the initial public offering of our common stock, $0.01 par value per share. The joint book-running managers for the Offering were Credit Suisse First Boston LLC and Citigroup Global Markets Inc. The shares of common stock sold in the Offering were registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, on a Registration Statement (Registration No. 333-101170) on Form S-11 that was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 24, 2003. All 36,510,000 shares of common stock
32
registered under the Registration Statement were sold at a price to the public of $19.00 per share, generating gross proceeds of approximately $693.7 million. The net proceeds to us were approximately $624.4 million after deducting an aggregate of $50.1 million in underwriting discounts and commissions paid to the underwriters and $19.2 million in other expenses incurred in connection with the Offering. All of the shares of common stock were sold by us and there were no selling stockholders in the Offering. On July 8, 2003 we sold an additional 5,476,500 shares of our common stock as a result of the underwriters exercise of their over-allotment option. The gross proceeds from the sale of these additional shares totaled $104.1 million and the net proceeds were $97.6 million. Upon the closing of the sale of these additional shares, the Offering terminated.
We contributed the net proceeds from the Offering to the Operating Partnership. In addition, on or around the consummation of the Offering, certain of our subsidiaries entered into refinancing transactions pursuant to which:
| our subsidiary that owns a fee simple interest in US Bank Tower borrowed $260.0 million under a mortgage loan from Greenwich Capital Financial Products, Inc., and paid approximately $4.2 million in origination fees and costs; |
| our subsidiaries that own fee simple interests in Gas Company Tower and 808 South Olive Garage borrowed $250.0 million under a mortgage loan with Bank of America, N.A. and $30.0 million under a mezzanine loan with Bank of America, N.A. and paid approximately $5.5 million in origination fees and costs; and |
| our subsidiary that owns a fee simple interest in Wells Fargo Tower borrowed $250.0 million under a mortgage loan comprised of multiple notes with Greenwich Capital Financial Products, Inc. and paid approximately $4.2 million in origination fees and costs. |
In addition, the Operating Partnership entered into the $100 million secured line of credit described above, under the caption Liquidity and Capital Resources, of which $75.0 million was available for borrowing at September 30, 2003.
The Operating Partnership subsequently used the proceeds received from us, the $776.1 million of net proceeds from the refinancing transactions and $39.3 million of restricted cash that was released upon consummation of the Offering as follows (all amounts approximate):
| $995.5 million to repay certain mortgage, mezzanine, repurchase facility, and revolving indebtedness and the related accrued interest thereon; |
| $79.5 million for related prepayment penalties, exit fees and defeasance costs ($33.6 million of which was offset against loan premiums recorded in connection with purchase accounting entries); |
| $311.6 million paid to unaffiliated third parties to acquire properties or interests in properties in our portfolio, comprised of: |
| $75.2 million paid to a public REIT to acquire a 100% indirect leasehold interest in Cerritos Corporate Center Phase I and Phase II (does not include a $3.8 million deposit paid prior to the Offering); |
33
| $79.1 million paid to an affiliate of Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., to acquire an additional 42% interest in Wells Fargo Tower; |
| $86.0 million to redeem a preferred equity interest in US Bank Tower held by an affiliate of Credit Suisse First Boston LLC; |
| $7.3 million paid to third party holders of ownership interests in various property entities; |
| $53.0 million paid to BankAmerica Realty Services, Inc. to purchase the additional interests in Glendale Center not owned by us; and |
| $11.0 million to purchase from Disney Enterprises a profit participation in Glendale Center. |
| $15.2 million in cash bonuses, tax gross-ups and accrued compensation, including approximately $8.9 million to an employee who resigned in connection with the Offering; |
| $35.2 million to fund tenant improvement and leasing commission reserves, as of September 30, 2003 approximately $25.4 million remaining of the $35.2 million from the Offering was still reserved for tenant improvement and leasing commissions; |
| $5.8 million in miscellaneous contributed liabilities; and |
| $2.0 million in fees and costs for the $100 million secured credit facility. |
We invested the remaining proceeds from the Offering and the refinancing transactions, and restricted cash released upon consummation of the Offering in short-term, investment-grade, interest bearing instruments, pending their use to fund working capital, capital expenditures and reserves, tenant improvements, potential improvements to our hotel, and potentially to acquire properties.

ITEM 5. | OTHER INFORMATION |
The Operating Partnerships option to acquire the 1733 Ocean Avenue property controlled by Robert F. Maguire III remains subject to the construction financing encumbering the property. On November 1, 2003, the construction financing matured and Mr. Maguire entered into forbearance agreements with each of the construction lenders pursuant to which those lenders have agreed not to exercise their remedies for a period of thirty days, in order to allow Mr.
34
Maguire and those lenders to finalize the documentation for loan extensions. If the lenders do not ultimately agree to loan extensions and seek to foreclose on the property, the Operating Partnership may have to consider whether to exercise its option on the project before the option is extinguished by the lenders exercise of their remedies.
