TABLE OF CONTENTS
Forward-Looking Statements
This annual report contains forward-looking statements, including discussion and analysis of the Companys financial condition, anticipated capital expenditures required to complete projects, amounts of anticipated cash distributions to its shareholders in the future and other matters. These forward-looking statements are not historical facts but are the intent, belief or current expectations of the Companys management based on its knowledge and understanding of the Companys business and industry. Forward-looking statements are typically identified by the use of terms such as may, will, should, potential, predicts, anticipates, expects, intends, plans, believes, seeks, estimates or the negative of such terms and variations of these words and similar expressions. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors, some of which are beyond the Companys control, are difficult to predict and could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or forecasted in the forward-looking statements.
Forward-looking statements that were true at the time made may ultimately prove to be incorrect or false. You are cautioned to not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which reflect managements view only as of the date of this Form 10-K. The Company undertakes no obligation to update or revise forward-looking statements to reflect changed assumptions, the occurrence of unanticipated events or changes to future operating results. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from any forward-looking statements made in this Form 10-K include changes in general economic conditions, changes in real estate conditions, construction costs that may exceed estimates, construction delays, increases in interest rates, lease-up risks, inability to obtain new tenants upon the expiration of existing leases, and the potential need to fund tenant improvements or other capital expenditures out of operating cash flow. The forward-looking statements should be read in light of these factors and the factors identified in the Risk Factors section of the Companys Registration Statement on Form S-11, as amended, as previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
General Development of Business
Hartman Commercial Properties REIT (the Company) is a Maryland real estate investment trust organized in December 2003 for the purpose of merging with Hartman Commercial Properties REIT, a Texas real estate investment trust organized in August 1998. On June 4, 2004, the shareholders of the Texas entity approved the merger, and on July 28, 2004, the reorganization was completed. We are the surviving entity as a result of the merger. The sole purpose of the reorganization was to change our state of domicile to Maryland by the conversion of each outstanding common share of beneficial interest of the Texas entity into 1.42857 common shares of beneficial interest of the Maryland entity. The Company has made an election to be taxed as a real estate investment trust (REIT). The Company invests in and operates retail, industrial and office properties located primarily in the Houston and San Antonio metropolitan areas, and plans to expand its investments to retail, office and industrial properties located in major metropolitan cities in the United States, principally in the Southern United States. The Company intends to lease each respective property to one or more tenants. In addition, the Company may make or invest in mortgage loans consistent with its REIT status.
Substantially all of the Companys business is conducted through Hartman REIT Operating Partnership, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership organized in 1998 (the Operating Partnership). The Company is the owner of a 53.37% interest in the Operating Partnership and is the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership.
The Companys advisor is Hartman Management, L.P. (the Management Company), a Texas limited partnership formed in 1990. The Management Company is an affiliate of the Company. The Management Company is responsible for managing the Companys affairs on a day-to-day basis and for identifying and making acquisitions and investments on behalf of the Company.
As of March 22, 2005, the Company had 7,443,420 common shares of beneficial interest (common stock) outstanding. As of such date, the Company had no shares of preferred stock issued and outstanding and no common stock equivalents outstanding. No stock options had been issued as of March 22, 2005.
1
On December 31, 2004, the Company owned 34 properties. One additional property, containing approximately 106,169 feet of gross leasable area, was acquired on March 14, 2005. All of the Companys properties are located in the metropolitan Houston, Texas and San Antonio, Texas areas. The properties primarily consist of retail centers and each is designed to meet the needs of surrounding local communities. A supermarket or one or more nationally and/or regionally recognized tenants typically anchors each of the properties. In the aggregate, at December 31, 2004 the properties contained approximately 2,635,000 square feet of gross leasable area.
As of December 31, 2004, the properties were approximately 86.2% leased. As of such date, anchor space at the properties, representing approximately 10.0% of total leasable area, was 91.4% leased, while non-anchor space, accounting for the remaining 90.0% balance, was approximately 85.6% leased. A substantial number of the tenants of the properties are local tenants. Indeed, 74.5% of the tenants are local tenants and 12.2% and 13.3% of the tenants are national and regional tenants, respectively.
Substantially all of the Companys revenues consist of base rents and percentage rents received under long-term leases. For the year ended December 31, 2004, total rents and other income were $23,106,301 and percentage rents were $-0-. Approximately 66.5% of all existing leases provide for annual increases in the base rental payments with a step up rental clause.
Recent Developments
Initial Public Offering
On September 15, 2004, the Companys Registration Statement on Form S-11, with respect to a public offering (the Public Offering) of up to 10,000,000 common shares of beneficial interest to be offered at a price of $10.00 per share, was declared effective under the Securities Act of 1933. The Registration Statement also covers up to 1,000,000 shares available for sale pursuant to our dividend reinvestment plan, to be offered at a price of $9.50 per share. The shares are being offered to investors on a best efforts basis, which means that the broker-dealers participating in the offering are only required to use their best efforts to sell the shares and have no firm commitment or obligation to purchase any of the shares.
As of December 31, 2004, no shares had been issued pursuant to the Public Offering, because its terms provided that the Company would not admit new shareholders pursuant to the Public Offering, or receive any proceeds therefrom, until subscriptions aggregating at least $2,000,000 (200,000 shares) were received and accepted by the Company, not including shares sold to residents of either New York or Pennsylvania. As of December 31, 2004, the Company had received and accepted subscriptions for a total of 147,432 shares for gross offering proceeds of $1,474,320 held in escrow as of such date.
As of February 11, 2005, the Company had accepted subscriptions for 277,775 shares (not including shares sold to residents of either New York or Pennsylvania) and, accordingly, 277,775 shares had been issued pursuant to the Public Offering as of such date with gross offering proceeds received of $2,777,750. The terms of the Public Offering provide that we will pay a dealer manager fee of up to 2.5% of the gross offering proceeds to D.H. Hill Securities, LLP, our dealer manager for the Public Offering, and also that we will pay selling commissions of up to 7.0% of the gross offering proceeds for any sales through participating broker-dealers and the dealer manager, other than sales by employees of the Management Company sponsored by the dealer manager. Additionally, in connection with the Public Offering, we have agreed to pay the Management Company, in its capacity as our advisor (i) up to 2.5% of the gross offering proceeds as reimbursement for the Management Companys payment of organization and offering expenses on behalf of the Company and (ii) an acquisition fee equal to 2.0% of the gross offering proceeds for its services in connection with the selection, purchase, development or construction of real property (payable upon receipt by the Company of such proceeds, rather than when a property is acquired). We accrued an aggregate of $218,260 in dealer manager fees and selling commissions for the subscriptions accepted through February 11, 2005, resulting in net proceeds to the Company (after the payment of such fees and commissions) of $2,559,490. Out of such net proceeds, we accrued amounts payable to the Management Company of $69,444 as a reimbursement of organization and offering expenses and $55,555 pursuant to the acquisition fee described above.
2
Additional subscription proceeds will be held in escrow until investors are admitted as shareholders. We intend to admit new stockholders at least monthly pursuant to the Public Offering. At that time, subscription proceeds may be released to the Company from escrow and applied to the making of investments and the payment or reimbursement of the dealer manager fee, selling commissions and other organization and offering expenses. Until required for such purposes, net offering proceeds will be held in short-term, liquid investments.
Recent Acquisitions
On September 8, 2004, the Company purchased Stafford Plaza, a retail shopping center containing approximately 95,032 rentable square feet located on an approximately 8.66-acre tract of land in Houston, Texas. The total purchase price of Stafford Plaza was $8.9 million, plus closing costs, and was paid through cash drawn on the Companys line of credit. The purchase price for the transaction was determined through negotiations between STPL Associates LP, the seller, and the Company. STPL Associates LP is not affiliated with the Company, Hartman REIT Operating Partnership, L.P., Hartman REIT Operating Partnership II, L.P., or Hartman Management, L.P. Stafford Plaza, which was built in 1974, includes among its major tenants The TJX Companies, Inc., Blockbuster, Inc. and Exxon Mobil Corporation. The current aggregate annual base rent for all tenants in Stafford Plaza is approximately $856,029.
On March 14, 2005, the Company purchased Woodlake Plaza, an office building containing approximately 106,169 rentable square feet located on an approximately 3.4963-acre tract of land in Houston, Texas. The total purchase price of Woodlake Plaza was $5.5 million, plus closing costs, and was paid through cash drawn on the Companys line of credit. The purchase price for the transaction was determined through negotiations between CSFB 1998-P1 Gessner Office Limited Partnership, the seller, and the Company. CSFB 1998-P1 Gessner Office Limited Partnership is not affiliated with the Company, Hartman REIT Operating Partnership, L.P., Hartman REIT Operating Partnership II, L.P., or Hartman Management, L.P. Woodlake Plaza, which was built in 1975, includes among its major tenants Hibernia Corporation, Management Alliance Group and Rock Solid Images. The current aggregate annual base rent for all tenants in Woodlake Plaza is approximately $1,370,403.
Investment Objectives and Criteria
The following is an overview of our current policies with respect to investments, borrowing, affiliate transactions, equity capital and certain other activities. All of these policies have been established in our governance documents or by our management and may be amended or revised from time to time (and at any time) by our management or trustees without a vote or the approval of our shareholders. Any change to these policies would be made, however, only after a review and analysis of such change, in light of then existing business and other circumstances, and then only if we believe that it is advisable to do so in the best interest of our shareholders. We cannot assure you that our policies or investment objectives will be attained or that the value of our common shares will not decrease.
General
We invest in commercial real estate properties, primarily neighborhood retail centers and office and industrial properties. Our primary business and investment objectives are:
to maximize cash dividends paid to our shareholders;
to continue to qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes;
to obtain and preserve long-term capital appreciation in the value of our properties to be realized upon our ultimate sale of such properties; and
to provide our shareholders with liquidity for their investment in us by listing our shares on the New York Stock Exchange, the American Stock Exchange, the Nasdaq National Market or another national exchange within twelve years after the completion of the Public Offering.
In addition, to the extent that our advisor determines that it is advantageous to make or invest in mortgage loans, we will also seek to obtain fixed income through the receipt of payments on mortgage loans. Our management intends to limit such mortgage investments to 15.0% of our total investment portfolio unless our management determines that prevailing economic or portfolio circumstances require otherwise. We cannot assure
3
you that we will attain these objectives or that our capital will not decrease. Pursuant to our advisory agreement, our advisor will be indemnified for claims relating to any failure to succeed in achieving these objectives.
We may not materially change our investment objectives, except upon approval of shareholders holding a majority of the shares. Our independent trustees will review our investment objectives at least annually to determine that our policies are in the best interests of our shareholders. Each such determination will be set forth in the minutes of our board of trustees. Decisions relating to the purchase or sale of our investments will be made by the Management Company, as our advisor, subject to approval by our board of trustees, including a majority of our independent trustees.
Acquisition and Investment Policies
We intend to continue to acquire community retail centers and office and industrial properties for long-term ownership and for the purpose of producing income. These are properties that generally have premier business addresses in especially desirable locations. Such properties generally are of high quality construction, offer personalized tenant amenities and attract higher quality tenants. We generally intend to hold our properties seven to ten years, which we believe is the optimal period to enable us to capitalize on the potential for increased income and capital appreciation of our properties. However, economic or market conditions may influence us to hold our investments for different periods of time. Also, it is our managements belief that targeting this type of property for investment will enhance our ability to enter into joint ventures with other institutional real property investors (such as pension funds, public REITs and other large institutional real estate investors), thus allowing greater diversity of investment by increasing the number of properties in which we invest. Our management also believes that a portfolio consisting of a preponderance of this type of property enhances our liquidity opportunities for investors by making the sale of individual properties, multiple properties or our investment portfolio as a whole attractive to institutional investors and by making a possible listing of our shares attractive to the public investment community.
We acquire assets primarily for income. Although we have historically invested in properties that have been constructed and have operating histories, we anticipate that we may become more active in investing in raw land or in properties that are under development or construction. To the extent feasible, we will invest in a portfolio of properties that will satisfy our investment objectives of maximizing cash available for payment of dividends, preserving our capital and realizing capital appreciation upon the ultimate sale of our properties.
Our policy is to continue to acquire properties in the Houston and San Antonio, Texas metropolitan areas where we believe opportunities exist for acceptable investment returns. We anticipate that we will continue to focus on properties in the $1,000,000 to $10,000,000 value range. We typically lease our properties to a wide variety of tenants on a triple-net basis which means that the tenant is responsible for paying the cost of all maintenance and minor repairs, property taxes and insurance relating to its leased space. Our management believes that its extensive experience, market knowledge and network of industry contacts in the Houston and San Antonio metropolitan areas, and the limitation of our investments to this area, gives us a competitive advantage and enhances our ability to identify and capitalize on acquisitions. Although we anticipate that we will continue to focus primarily on acquisition opportunities in Houston and San Antonio, Texas, we are also exploring opportunities in Texas outside of Houston and San Antonio. Specifically, we are exploring the feasibility of acquiring commercial real estate in Dallas, Texas.
Although, we currently intend to invest in or develop community retail centers and other office and industrial properties in the Houston and San Antonio metropolitan areas, our future investment or redevelopment activities are not limited to any geographic area or to a specified property use. We may invest in any geographic area and we may invest in other commercial properties such as manufacturing facilities, and warehouse and distribution facilities in order to reduce overall portfolio risk, enhance overall portfolio returns, or respond to changes in the real estate market if our advisor determines that it would be advantageous to do so. Further, to the extent that our advisor determines it is in our best interest, due to the state of the real estate market or in order to diversify our investment portfolio or otherwise, we may make or invest in mortgage loans secured by the same types of commercial properties in which we intend to invest. Our management intends to limit such mortgage investments to 15.0% of our total investment portfolio unless our management determines that prevailing economic or portfolio circumstances require otherwise.
4
Although we are not limited as to the form our investments may take, all of our properties are owned by the Operating Partnership or by a wholly owned subsidiary of the Operating Partnership in fee simple title. We expect to continue to pursue our investment objectives through the direct ownership of properties. However, in the future, we may also participate with other entities (including non-affiliated entities) in property ownership, through joint ventures, limited liability companies, partnership, co-tenancies or other types of common ownership. We presently have no plans to own any properties jointly with another entity or entities. In addition, we may purchase properties and lease them back to the sellers of such properties. While we will use our best efforts to structure any such sale-leaseback transaction such that the lease will be characterized as a true lease so that we will be treated as the owner of the property for federal income tax purposes, we cannot assure you that the Internal Revenue Service will not challenge such characterization. In the event that any such sale-leaseback transaction is recharacterized as a financing transaction for federal income tax purposes, deductions for depreciation and cost recovery relating to such property would be disallowed.
We may also enter into arrangements with the seller or developer of a property whereby the seller or developer agrees that, if during a stated period the property does not generate a specified cash flow, the seller or developer will pay in cash to us a sum necessary to reach the specified cash flow level, subject in some cases to negotiated dollar limitations.
In determining whether to purchase a particular property, we may, in accordance with customary practices, obtain an option on such property. The amount paid for an option, if any, is normally surrendered if the property is not purchased and is normally credited against the purchase price if the property is purchased.
In purchasing, leasing and developing properties, the Company will be subject to risks generally incident to the ownership of real estate, including:
changes in general or local economic conditions;
changes in supply of or demand for similar or competing properties in an area;
changes in interest rates and availability of permanent mortgage funds that may render the sale of a property difficult or unattractive;
adverse changes in tax, real estate, environmental and zoning laws;
a taking of any of our properties by eminent domain;
acts of God, such as earthquakes or floods and other uninsured losses;
periods of high interest rates and tight money supply that may make the sale of properties more difficult;
a reduction in rental income as a result of the inability to maintain occupancy levels due to tenant turnover or tenant bankruptcies; and
general overbuilding or excess supply in the market area.
Some or all of the foregoing factors may affect our properties, which could adversely affect our operations and ability to pay dividends to shareholders. The Company and its performance will be subject to additional risks as have been listed in the Companys Registration Statement on Form S-11, as amended, as previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Terms of Leases and Tenant Credit Worthiness
While the terms and conditions of any lease that we enter into with our tenants may vary substantially from those described herein, we expect that a majority of our leases will be office leases customarily used between landlords and tenants in the geographic area where the property is located. Such leases generally provide for terms of three to five years and require the tenant to pay a pro rata share of building expenses. Under such typical leases,
5
the landlord is directly responsible for all real estate taxes, sales and use taxes, special assessments, utilities, insurance and building repairs, and other building operation and management costs.
We will execute new tenant leases and tenant lease renewals, expansions and extensions with terms that are dictated by the current submarket conditions and the verifiable creditworthiness of each particular tenant. We will use a number of industry credit rating services to determine the creditworthiness of potential tenants and any personal guarantor or corporate guarantor of each potential tenant. The reports produced by these services will be compared to the relevant financial data collected from these parties before consummating a lease transaction. Our advisor will promulgate leasing guidelines for use by the Management Company in evaluating prospective tenants and proposed lease terms and conditions.
Borrowing Policies
Most of our current properties are subject to mortgages. If we acquire a property for cash in the future, we will most likely fund a portion of the purchase price with debt. By operating and acquiring on a leveraged basis, we will have more funds available for investment in properties. This will allow us to make more investments than would otherwise be possible, resulting in a more diversified portfolio of assets. When interest rates on mortgage loans are high or financing is otherwise unavailable on a timely basis, we may purchase certain properties for cash with the intention of obtaining a mortgage loan for a portion of the purchase price at a later time.
Our organizational and governance documents generally limit the maximum amount of indebtedness that we may incur to 300% of our net assets as of the date of any borrowing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, we may exceed such borrowing limits if any excess in borrowing over such 300% level is approved by a majority of our independent trustees and disclosed to our shareholders in a subsequent quarterly report. Further, we do not have a policy limiting the amount of indebtedness we may incur or the amount of mortgages which may be placed on any one piece of property. As a general policy, however, we intend to maintain a ratio of total liabilities to total assets that is less than 50%. As of December 31, 2004, we had a ratio of total liabilities to total assets of 46.5%. However, we may not be able to continue to achieve this objective.
The Management Company will refinance properties during the term of a loan only in limited circumstances, such as when a decline in interest rates makes it beneficial to prepay an existing mortgage, when an existing mortgage matures or if an attractive investment becomes available and the proceeds from the refinancing can be used to purchase such investment. The benefits of the refinancing may include an increased cash flow resulting from reduced debt service requirements, an increase in dividend distributions from proceeds of the refinancing, and an increase in property ownership if refinancing proceeds are reinvested in real estate.
We may not borrow money from any of our trustees or from the Management Company and its affiliates unless such loan is approved by a majority of the trustees, including a majority of the independent trustees, not otherwise interested in the transaction as fair, competitive and commercially reasonable and no less favorable to us than a comparable loan between unaffiliated parties.
Disposition Policies
We intend to hold each property that we acquire for an extended period, and we have no current intention to dispose of any of our properties. However, a property may be sold before the end of the expected holding period if, in the judgment of the Management Company, the value of the property might decline substantially, an opportunity has arisen to improve other properties, we can increase cash flow through the disposition of the property, or the sale of the property is in our best interests. The determination of whether a particular property should be sold or otherwise disposed of will be made after consideration of relevant factors, including prevailing economic conditions, with a view to achieving maximum capital appreciation. The selling price of a leased property will be determined in large part by the amount of rent payable by the tenants. The terms of payment will be affected by custom in the area in which the property being sold is located and the then-prevailing economic conditions.
If our shares are not listed for trading on the New York Stock Exchange, the American Stock Exchange, the Nasdaq National Market or another national exchange within twelve years of the termination of the Public Offering, unless such date is extended by the majority vote of both our board of trustees and our independent trustees, our Declaration of Trust requires us to begin the sale of all of our properties and distribution to our shareholders of the
6
net sale proceeds resulting from our liquidation. If at any time after twelve years of the termination of the Public Offering we are not in the process of either (i) listing our shares for trading on a national securities exchange or including such shares for quotation on the Nasdaq Stock Market or (ii) liquidating our assets, investors holding a majority of our shares may vote to liquidate us in response to a formal proxy to liquidate. Depending upon then prevailing market conditions, it is our intention to begin to consider the process of listing or liquidation prior to the twelfth anniversary of the termination of the Public Offering. In making the decision to apply for listing of our shares, the trustees will try to determine whether listing our shares or liquidating our assets will result in greater value for our shareholders. The circumstances, if any, under which the trustees will agree to list our shares cannot be determined at this time. Even if our shares are not listed or included for quotation, we are under no obligation to actually sell our portfolio within this period since the precise timing will depend on real estate and financial markets, economic conditions of the areas in which the properties are located and federal income tax effects on shareholders that may prevail in the future. We may not be able to liquidate our assets. We will continue in existence until all properties are sold and our other assets are liquidated.
Securities of or Interests in Persons Primarily Engaged in Real Estate Activities and Other Issuers
Consistent with the requirements necessary to maintain our qualification as a REIT for Federal income tax purposes, we may acquire securities of entities engaged in real estate activities or securities of other issuers, including for the purpose of exercising control over such entities. We may acquire all or substantially all of the securities or assets of REITs or similar entities where such investments would be consistent with our investment policies. We anticipate that we will only acquire securities or other interests in issuers engaged in commercial real estate activities involving retail, office or industrial properties. We may also invest in entities owning undeveloped acreage. Neither our Declaration of Trust nor our bylaws place any limit or restriction on the percentage of our assets that may be invested in securities of or interests in other issuers. The governance documents of the Operating Partnership also do not contain any such restrictions.
We may also invest in limited partnership and other ownership interests in entities that own real property. We expect that we may make such investments when we consider it more efficient to acquire an entity owning such real property rather than to acquire the properties directly. We also may acquire less than all of the ownership interests of such entities if we determine that such interests are undervalued and that a liquidation event in respect of such interests are expected within the investment holding periods consistent with that for our direct property investments.
Other than our interest in the Operating Partnership, we currently do not own any securities of other entities. We do not presently intend to acquire securities of any non-affiliated entities.
Equity Capital
If our trustees determine to raise additional equity capital, they have the authority, without shareholder approval, to issue additional common shares or preferred shares of beneficial interests. Additionally, our trustees could cause the Operating Partnership to issue OP Units which are convertible into our common shares. Subject to limitations contained in the organizational and governance documents of the Operating Partnership and us, the trustees could issue, or cause to be issued, such securities in any manner (and on such terms and for such consideration) they deem appropriate, including in exchange for real estate. We have issued securities in exchange for real estate and we expect to continue to do so in the future. Existing shareholders have no preemptive right to purchase such shares in any offering, and any such offering might cause dilution of an existing shareholders investment in the Company.
Environmental Matters
All real property and the operations conducted on real property are subject to federal, state and local laws and regulations relating to environmental protection and human health and safety. These laws and regulations generally govern wastewater discharges, air emissions, the operation and removal of underground and above-ground storage tanks, the use, storage, treatment, transportation and disposal of solid and hazardous materials, and the remediation of contamination associated with disposals. Under these laws and regulations, a current or previous owner or operator of real property may be liable for the cost of removal or remediation of hazardous or toxic substances on, under or in such property. Some of these laws and regulations may impose joint and several liability
7
on tenants, owners or operators for the costs of investigation or remediation of contaminated properties, regardless of fault or the legality of the original disposal and whether or not the owner or operator knew of, or was responsible for, the presence of such hazardous or toxic substances.
Environmental laws also may impose restrictions on the manner in which property may be used or businesses may be operated, and these restrictions may require substantial expenditures. Environmental laws provide for sanctions in the event of noncompliance and may be enforced by governmental agencies or, in certain circumstances, by private parties. Certain environmental laws and common law principles could be used to impose liability for release of and exposure to hazardous substances, including asbestos-containing materials into the air, and third parties may seek recovery from owners or operators of real properties for personal injury or property damage associated with exposure to released hazardous substances. Additionally, concern about indoor exposure to mold has been increasing as exposure to mold may cause a variety of adverse health effects and symptoms, including allergic or other reactions. As a result, the presence of significant mold at any of our properties could require us to undertake a costly remediation program to contain or remove the mold from the affected property, and could expose us to liability from our tenants, their employees and others. The cost of defending against claims of liability, of compliance with environmental regulatory requirements, of remediating any contaminated property, or of paying personal injury claims could materially adversely affect our business, assets or results of operations and, consequently, amounts available for payments of dividends to the Companys shareholders. In addition, the presence of these substances, or the failure to properly remediate these substances, may adversely affect our ability to sell or rent such property or to use the property as collateral for future borrowing.
Some of these laws and regulations have been amended so as to require compliance with new or more stringent standards as of future dates. Compliance with new or more stringent laws or regulations or stricter interpretation of existing laws may require material expenditures by us. We cannot assure you that future laws, ordinances or regulations will not impose any material environmental liability, or that the current environmental condition of our properties will not be affected by the operations of the tenants, by the existing condition of the land, by operations in the vicinity of the properties, such as the presence of underground storage tanks, or by the activities of unrelated third parties. In addition, there are various local, state and federal fire, health, life-safety and similar regulations that we may be required to comply with, and which may subject us to liability in the form of fines or damages for noncompliance.
We will not purchase any property unless and until we obtain what is generally referred to as a Phase I environmental site assessment and are generally satisfied with the environmental status of the property. A Phase I environmental site assessment basically consists of a visual survey of the building and the property in an attempt to identify areas of potential environmental concerns, visually observing neighboring properties to assess surface conditions or activities that may have an adverse environmental impact on the property, and contacting local governmental agency personnel and performing a regulatory agency file search in an attempt to determine any known environmental concerns in the immediate vicinity of the property. A Phase I environmental site assessment does not generally include any sampling or testing of soil, groundwater or building materials from the property. Certain properties that we have acquired contain, or contained, dry-cleaning establishments utilizing solvents. Where believed to be warranted, samplings of building materials or subsurface investigations were undertaken with respect to these and other properties. To date, the costs associated with these investigations and any subsequent remedial measures taken have not been material to the Company.
We believe that our properties are in compliance in all material respects with all federal, state and local ordinances and regulations regarding the handling, discharge and emission of hazardous or toxic substances. We have not been notified by any governmental authority, and are not otherwise aware, of any material noncompliance, liability or claim relating to hazardous or toxic substances in connection with any of our present or former properties. We have not recorded in our financial statements any material liability in connection with environmental matters. Nevertheless, it is possible that the environmental assessments available to us do not reveal all potential environmental liabilities. It is also possible that subsequent investigations will identify material contamination, that adverse environmental conditions have arisen subsequent to the performance of the environmental assessments, or that there are material environmental liabilities of which management is unaware.

Competition
The Company may experience competition for tenants from owners and managers of similar projects, which may include the Companys affiliates. The Company will experience competition in the acquisition of real estate and the making of mortgages from similar companies with access to greater resources than those available to the Company. At the time the Company elects to dispose of its properties, the Company will also be in competition with sellers of similar properties to locate suitable purchasers for its properties.
Employees
Although we have executive officers who have management responsibilities with respect to the Company, we do not have any direct employees. The employees of the Management Company and other affiliates of the Company perform a full range of real estate services for the Company, including acquisitions, property management, accounting, asset management, wholesale brokerage and investor relations. As of December 31, 2004, the Management Company had 81 full time and one part time employees, none of whom was represented by a union.
Economic Dependency
The Company is dependent on its affiliates for services that are essential to the Company, including the sale of the Companys shares of common stock, asset acquisition decisions, property management and other general administrative responsibilities. In the event that these companies were unable to provide these services to the Company, the Company would be required to obtain such services from other sources.
Relationship with the Management Company and Allen R. Hartman
The Management Company is primarily responsible for managing our day-to-day business affairs and assets and carrying out the directives of our board of trustees. The Management Company is wholly owned by Allen R. Hartman, who is our President and a member of our board of trustees. Mr. Hartman is primarily responsible for the management decisions of the Management Company and its affiliates, including the selection of investment properties to be recommended to our board of trustees, the negotiation for these investments, and the property management and leasing of these investment properties. The Management Company seeks to invest in commercial properties that satisfy our investment objectives, typically retail, industrial and office properties. Our board of trustees, including a majority of our independent trustees, must approve all acquisitions of real estate properties.
Before the commencement of the Companys Public Offering described above, Mr. Hartman received 126,000 of our common shares of beneficial interest for services he provided in connection with our formation and initial capitalization. As of December 31, 2004, we had acquired a total of 34 properties. We acquired 28 of those 34 properties from entities controlled by Mr. Hartman. We acquired these properties by either paying cash, issuing our shares or issuing units of limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership (OP Units). In total, Mr. Hartman received the following as a result of such transactions:
897,117.19 OP Units, as adjusted to reflect the Companys July 2004 reorganization, in consideration of Mr. Hartmans general partner interest in the selling entities;
The ability to limit his future exposure to general partner liability as a result of Mr. Hartman no longer serving as the general partner to certain of the selling entities; and
The repayment of debt encumbering various of our properties which was personally guaranteed by Mr. Hartman.
We owed $47,386 and $41,306 in dividends payable to Mr. Hartman on his common shares at December 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003, respectively. Mr. Hartman owned 3.9% and 3.4% of our issued and outstanding common shares as of December 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003, respectively.

Property Management and Advisory Agreements
In January 1999, we entered into a property management agreement with the Management Company. Effective September 1, 2004, this agreement was amended and restated. Prior to September 1, 2004, in consideration for supervising the management and performing various day-to-day affairs, we paid the Management Company a management fee of 5% and a partnership management fee of 1% based on Effective Gross Revenues from the properties, as defined. After September 1, 2004, we pay the Management Company management fees in an amount not to exceed the fees customarily charged in arms length transactions by others rendering similar services in the same geographic area, as determined by a survey of brokers and agents in such area. We expect these fees to be between approximately 2% and 4% of Gross Revenues, as such term is defined in the amended and restated property management agreement, for the management of commercial office buildings and approximately 5% of Gross Revenues for the management of retail and industrial properties. Effective September 1, 2004, we entered into an advisory agreement with the Management Company which provides that we pay the Management Company a fee of one-fourth of .25% of Gross Asset Value, as such term is defined in the advisory agreement, per quarter for asset management services. We incurred total management, partnership and asset management fees of $1,339,822 and $1,232,127 for the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively, of which $54,331 and $93,006 were payable at December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively.
During July 2004, we amended certain terms of its Declaration of Trust. Under the amended terms, the Management Company may be required to reimburse us for operating expenses exceeding certain limitations determined at the end of each fiscal quarter. Expenses did not exceed the limitations in 2004.
Under the provisions of the property management agreements, costs incurred by the Management Company for the management and maintenance of the properties are reimbursable to the Management Company. At December 31, 2004 and 2003, $188,772 and $288,305, respectively, was payable to the Management Company related to these reimbursable costs.
In consideration of leasing the properties, we also pay the Management Company leasing commissions of 6% for leases originated by the Management Company and 4% for expansions and renewals of existing leases based on Effective Gross Revenues from the properties. We incurred total leasing commissions to the Management Company of $952,756 and $978,398 for the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively, of which $232,343 and $175,725 were payable at December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively.
The fees payable to the Management Company under the new agreements effective September 1, 2004 were not significantly different from those that would have been payable under the former agreement.
In connection with the Public Offering, we reimburse the Management Company up to 2.5% of the gross selling price of all common shares sold for organization and offering expenses (excluding selling commissions and a dealer manager fee) incurred by the Management Company on behalf of us. No such reimbursable expenses were incurred for the year ended December 31, 2004 because we had not received the minimum subscription proceeds required to break escrow. As of February 11, 2005, we had incurred reimburseable organization and offering expenses of $69,444.
Also in connection with the Public Offering , the Management Company receives an acquisition fee equal to 2% of the gross selling price of all common shares sold for services in connection with the selection, purchase, development or construction of properties for us. No such fees were incurred for the year ended December 31, 2004 because we had not received the minimum subscription proceeds required to break escrow. As of February 11, 2005, we had incurred acquisition fees payable to the Management Company of $55,555.
Pursuant to the requirements of our Declaration of Trust, we have undertaken that, if our shares are not listed for trading on the New York Stock Exchange, the American Stock Exchange, the Nasdaq National Market or another national exchange within twelve years of the termination of the Public Offering, unless such date is extended by the majority vote of both our board of trustees and our independent trustees, we will begin the sale of all of our properties and distribution to our shareholders of the net sale proceeds resulting from our liquidation. The advisory agreement provides for two alternative forms of additional, subordinated incentive compensation to the Management Company related to this contingency, the first of which will take effect if we are required to liquidate our properties and distribute the proceeds, and the second of which will take effect if our common shares become listed on a national securities exchange or the Nasdaq National Market:
10
Type of Compensation |
|
Amount of Compensation |
|
|
|
Subordinated Participation in Net Sale Proceeds (payable only if our shares are not listed on an exchange and the Company is liquidated) |
|
15.0% of
remaining amounts of net sale proceeds after return of investors capital plus
payment to investors of a 7.0% annual, cumulative, noncompounded return on
capital. |
|
|
|
Subordinated Incentive Listing Fee (payable only if our shares are listed on an exchange) |
|
15.0% of the
amount (if any) by which (i) our adjusted market value plus dividends paid by
us prior to listing with respect to the shares sold in the Public Offering
exceeds (ii) investors aggregate capital contributions plus payment to
investors of a 7.0% annual, cumulative, noncompounded return on capital. |
Payments from the Management Company
The Management Company paid the Company $106,824, $106,789 and $79,168 for office space in 2004, 2003 and 2002, respectively. Such amounts are included in rental income in our consolidated statements of income.
Relationship to the Dealer Manager for the Public Offering
Certain employees of D.H. Hill Securities, the dealer manager for our Public Offering, are also employees of the Management Company. Two of such persons who will have a significant amount of influence on D.H. Hill Securities day-to-day operations in its capacity as dealer manager for us are Robert W. Engel, our Chief Financial Officer and the Controller of the Management Company, and Richard A. Vaughan, Vice President and Director of Investor Services for the Management Company.
Conflicts of Interest
We are subject to various conflicts of interest arising out of our relationship with the Management Company and its affiliates, including conflicts related to the arrangements described above pursuant to which the Management Company and its affiliates will be compensated by us. Some of the conflicts of interest in our transactions with the Management Company and its affiliates, and the corporate governance measures we adopted to address these conflicts, are described below.
Interests in Other Real Estate Programs
The Management Company and its partners, officers, employees or affiliates are advisors or general partners of other Hartman programs, including partnerships that have investment objectives similar to ours, and we expect that they will organize other such programs in the future. The Management Company and such officers, employees or affiliates have legal and financial obligations with respect to these programs that are similar to their obligations to us.
11
Allen R. Hartman and his affiliates have sponsored other privately offered real estate programs with substantially similar investment objectives as ours, and which are still operating and may acquire additional properties in the future. Conflicts of interest may arise between these entities and us.
Mr. Hartman or his affiliates may acquire, for their own account or for private placement, properties that Mr. Hartman deems not suitable for purchase by us, whether because of the greater degree of risk, the complexity of structuring inherent in such transactions, financing considerations or for other reasons, including properties with potential for attractive investment returns.
Competition in Acquiring Properties
Conflicts of interest will exist to the extent that we may acquire properties in the same geographic areas where properties owned by other Hartman programs are located. In such a case, a conflict could arise in the leasing of properties in the event that we and another Hartman program were to compete for the same tenants in negotiating leases, or a conflict could arise in connection with the resale of properties in the event that we and another Hartman program were to attempt to sell similar properties at the same time. Conflicts of interest may also exist at such time as we or our affiliates managing property on our behalf seek to employ developers, contractors or building managers as well as under other circumstances. The Management Company will seek to reduce conflicts relating to the employment of developers, contractors or building managers by making prospective employees aware of all such properties seeking to employ such persons. In addition, the Management Company will seek to reduce conflicts that may arise with respect to properties available for sale or rent by making prospective purchasers or tenants aware of all such properties. However, these conflicts cannot be fully avoided in that there may be established differing compensation arrangements for employees at different properties or differing terms for resales or leasing of the various properties.
Affiliated Property Manager
We anticipate that properties we acquire will be managed and leased by the Management Company as our affiliated property manager, pursuant to the Management Agreement described above. The Management Agreement has a three-year term, which we can terminate only in the event of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Management Company. We expect the Management Company to also serve as property manager for properties owned by affiliated real estate programs, some of which may be in competition with our properties. As described above, management fees to be paid to the Management Company are based on a percentage of the rental income received by the managed properties.
Joint Ventures with Affiliates of the Management Company
We may determine to enter into joint ventures with other Hartman programs (as well as other parties) for the acquisition, development or improvement of properties. The Management Company and its affiliates may have conflicts of interest in determining which Hartman program should enter into any particular joint venture agreement. The co-venturer may have economic or business interests or goals which are or which may become inconsistent with our business interests or goals. In addition, should any such joint venture be consummated, the Management Company may face a conflict in structuring the terms of the relationship between our interests and the interest of the co-venturer and in managing the joint venture. Since the Management Company and its affiliates will control both us and any affiliated co-venturer, agreements and transactions between the co-venturers with respect to any such joint venture will not have the benefit of arms-length negotiation of the type normally conducted between unrelated co-venturers.
Receipt of Fees and Other Compensation by the Management Company and its Affiliates
A transaction involving the purchase and sale of properties may result in the receipt of commissions, fees and other compensation by the Management Company and its affiliates, including acquisition fees, the dealer manager fee, property management and leasing fees, real estate brokerage commissions, and participation in nonliquidating net sale proceeds. However, the fees and compensation payable to the Management Company and its affiliates relating to the sale of properties are only payable after the return to the shareholders of their capital contributions plus cumulative returns on such capital. Subject to oversight by our board of trustees, the Management Company has considerable discretion with respect to all decisions relating to the terms and timing of
12
all transactions. Therefore, the Management Company may have conflicts of interest concerning certain actions taken on our behalf, particularly due to the fact that such fees will generally be payable to the Management Company and its affiliates regardless of the quality of the properties acquired or the services provided to us.
No Arms-Length Agreements
All agreements, contracts or arrangements between or among Mr. Hartman and his affiliates, including the Management Company, and us were not negotiated at arms-length. Such agreements include the Management Agreement, our Declaration of Trust, the Operating Partnerships partnership agreement, and various agreements involved in our acquisition of properties acquired from Mr. Hartman or his affiliates. The policies with respect to conflicts of interest described herein were designed to lessen the potential conflicts that arise from such relationships. As described below, all conflict of interest transactions must also be approved by the conflicts committee of our board of trustees in the future.
Additional Conflicts of Interest
We will potentially be in conflict of interest positions with Mr. Hartman and the Management Company as to various other matters in our day-to-day operations, including matters related to the:
computation of fees and/or reimbursements under the Operating Partnerships partnership agreement and the Management Agreement;
enforcement of the Management Agreement;
termination of the Management Agreement;
order and priority in which we pay the obligations of the Operating Partnership, including amounts guaranteed by or due to Mr. Hartman or his affiliates;
order and priority in which we pay amounts owed to third parties as opposed to amounts owed to the Management Company;
timing, amount and manner in which we refinance any indebtedness; and
extent to which we repay or refinance the indebtedness which is recourse to Mr. Hartman prior to nonrecourse indebtedness and the terms of any such refinancing.
Certain Conflict Resolution Procedures
Conflicts Committee
In order to reduce or eliminate certain potential conflicts of interest, we have created a conflicts committee of our board of trustees comprised of all of our independent trustees. Serving on the board or, or owning an interest in, the Company will not, by itself, preclude a trustee from serving on the conflicts committee. The conflicts committee is empowered to act on any matter permitted under Maryland law, provided that it first determine that the matter at issue is such that the exercise of independent judgment by affiliates of the Management Company could reasonably be compromised. Those conflict of interest matters that we cannot delegate to a committee under Maryland law must be acted upon by both the board of trustees and the conflicts committee. Among the matters we expect the conflicts committee to act upon are:
the continuation, renewal or enforcement of our agreements with the Management Company and its affiliates, including the Advisory Agreement and the dealer manager agreement;
public offerings of securities;
property sales;
property acquisitions;
transactions with affiliates;
compensation of our officers and trustees who are affiliated with our advisors;
whether and when we seek to list our common shares on the New York Stock Exchange, the American Stock Exchange, the Nasdaq National Market or another national exchange; and
whether and when we seek to sell the company or its assets.
13
Other Declaration of Trust Provisions Relating to Conflicts of Interest
In addition to the creation of the conflicts committee, our Declaration of Trust contains many other restrictions relating to (1) transactions we enter into with the Management Company and its affiliates, (2) certain future offerings, and (3) allocation of investment opportunities among affiliated entities. These restrictions include, among others, the following:
We will not purchase or lease properties in which the Management Company, any of our trustees or any of their respective affiliates has an interest without a determination by a majority of the trustees, including a majority of the independent trustees, not otherwise interested in such transaction, that such transaction is fair and reasonable to us and at a price to us no greater than the cost of the property to the seller or lessor unless there is substantial justification for any amount that exceeds such cost and such excess amount is determined to be reasonable. In no event will we acquire any such property at an amount in excess of its appraised value. We will not sell or lease properties to the Management Company, any of our trustees or any of their respective affiliates unless a majority of the trustees, including a majority of the independent trustees, not otherwise interested in the transaction, determines the transaction is fair and reasonable to us.
We will not make any loans to the Management Company, any of our trustees or any of their respective affiliates, except that we may make or invest in mortgage loans involving the Management Company, our trustees or their respective affiliates, provided that an appraisal of the underlying property is obtained from an independent appraiser and the transaction is approved as fair and reasonable to us and on terms no less favorable to us than those available from third parties. In addition, the Management Company, any of our trustees and any of their respective affiliates will not make loans to us or to joint ventures in which we are a joint venture partner unless approved by a majority of the trustees, including a majority of the independent trustees, not otherwise interested in the transaction as fair, competitive and commercially reasonable, and no less favorable to us than comparable loans between unaffiliated parties.
The Management Company and its affiliates shall be entitled to reimbursement, at cost, for actual expenses incurred by them on behalf of us or joint ventures in which we are a joint venture partner, subject to the limitation that for any year in which we qualify as a REIT, the Management Company must reimburse us for the amount, if any, by which our total operating expenses, including the asset management fee, paid during the previous fiscal year exceeds the greater of: (i) 2.0% of our average invested assets for that fiscal year, or (ii) 25.0% of our net income, before any additions to reserves for depreciation, bad debts or other similar non-cash reserves and before any gain from the sale of our assets, for that fiscal year.
In the event that an investment opportunity becomes available that is suitable, under all of the factors considered by the Management Company, for both us and one or more other entities affiliated with the Management Company and its affiliates, and for which more than one of such entities has sufficient uninvested funds, then the entity that has had the longest period of time elapse since it was offered an investment opportunity will first be offered such investment opportunity. It shall be the duty of our board of trustees, including the independent trustees, to insure that this method is applied fairly to us. In determining whether or not an investment opportunity is suitable for more than one program, the Management Company, subject to approval by our board of trustees, shall examine, among others, the following factors:
the anticipated cash flow of the property to be acquired and the cash requirements of each program;
the effect of the acquisition both on diversification of each programs investments by type of property and geographic area and on diversification of the tenants of its properties;
the policy of each program relating to leverage of properties;
the income tax effects of the purchase to each program;
the size of the investment; and
the amount of funds available to each program and the length of time such funds have been available for investment.
If a subsequent development, such as a delay in the closing of a property or a delay in the construction of a property, causes any such investment, in the opinion of our board of trustees and the Management Company, to be more appropriate for a program other than the program that committed to make the investment, the Management Company may determine that another program affiliated with the Management Company or its affiliates will make the investment. Our board of trustees has a duty to ensure that the method used by the Management Company for the allocation of the acquisition of properties by two or more affiliated programs seeking to acquire similar types of properties is applied fairly to us.
We will not accept goods or services from the Management Company or its affiliates or enter into any other transaction with the Management Company or its affiliates unless a majority of our trustees, including a majority of the independent trustees, not otherwise interested in the transaction approve such transaction as fair and reasonable to us and on terms and conditions not less favorable to us than those available from unaffiliated third parties.

On December 31, 2004, the Company owned the 34 properties discussed below. All of the Companys properties are located in the metropolitan Houston, Texas and San Antonio, Texas areas. The Companys properties primarily consist of retail centers and each is designed to meet the needs of surrounding local communities. A supermarket or one or more nationally and/or regionally recognized tenants typically anchors each of the Companys properties. In the aggregate, the Companys properties contain approximately 2,635,000 square feet of gross leasable area. No individual property in the Companys portfolio currently accounts for more than 10% of the Companys aggregate leasable area.
As of December 31, 2004, the Companys properties were approximately 86.2% leased. Anchor space at the properties, representing approximately 10.0% of total leasable area, was 91.4% leased, while non-anchor space, accounting for the remaining 90.0% balance, was approximately 85.6% leased. A substantial number of the Companys tenants are local tenants. Indeed, 74.5% of the Companys tenants are local tenants and 12.2% and 13.3% of the Companys tenants are national and regional tenants, respectively. The Company defines:
national tenants as any tenant that operates in at least four metropolitan areas located in more than one region (i.e. Northwest, Midwest, Southwest or Southeast);
regional tenants as any tenant that operates in two or more metropolitan areas located within the same region; and
local tenants as any tenant that operates stores only within the metropolitan Houston, Texas or San Antonio, Texas area.
Substantially all of the Companys revenues consist of base rents and percentage rents received under long-term leases. For the year ended December 31, 2004, total rents and other income were $23,106,301 and percentage rents were $-0-. Approximately 66.5% of all existing leases provide for annual increases in the base rental payments with a step up rental clause.
The following table lists the five properties that generated the most rents during the year 2004.

Insurance
The Company believes that it has property and liability insurance with reputable, commercially rated companies. The Company also believes that its insurance policies contain commercially reasonable deductibles and limits, adequate to cover its properties. The Company expects to maintain such insurance coverage and to obtain similar coverage with respect to any additional properties the Company acquires in the near future. Further, the Company has title insurance relating to its properties in an aggregate amount that the Company believes to be adequate.
Regulations
The Companys properties, as well as any other properties that the Company may acquire in the future, are subject to various federal, state and local laws, ordinances and regulations, including, among other things, zoning regulations, land use controls, environmental controls relating to air and water quality, noise pollution and indirect environmental impacts such as increased motor vehicle activity. The Company believes that it has all permits and approvals necessary under current law to operate its properties.
The nature of the Companys business exposes it to the risk of lawsuits for damages or penalties relating to, among other things, breach of contract and employment disputes. The Company is not currently a party to any pending material litigation.
None

Market Information
There is no established trading market for the Companys common stock. Therefore, there is a risk that a shareholder may not be able to sell the Companys common stock at a time or price acceptable to the shareholder, and investors should purchase the Companys shares only as a long-term investment.
For these reasons, an investment in the Company involves significant risk and is only suitable for persons who have adequate financial means, desire a relatively long-term investment and who will not need immediate liquidity from their investment. In consideration of these factors, we have established suitability standards for investors in the Public Offering, as well as for subsequent purchasers of our shares. These suitability standards require that a purchaser of shares have either:
a net worth of at least $150,000; or
a gross annual income of at least $45,000 and a net worth of at least $45,000.
For purposes of determining suitability of an investor, net worth in all cases should be calculated excluding the value of an investors home, furnishings and automobiles. In the case of sales to fiduciary accounts, these suitability standards must be met by the fiduciary account, by the person who directly or indirectly supplied the funds for the purchase of the shares if such person is the fiduciary or by the beneficiary of the account.
The suitability standards described above also apply to potential subsequent purchasers of our shares. Accordingly, even if a shareholder is able to find a subsequent buyer for his or her shares in the Company, the shares may not be sold to such buyer unless the buyer meets the suitability standards applicable to him or her, including any suitability standards imposed by such potential purchasers state of residence. Our Declaration of Trust also imposes certain restrictions on the ownership of common shares that will apply to potential transferees that may inhibit your ability to sell your shares. Moreover, except for requests for redemptions by the estate, heir or beneficiary of a deceased shareholder, our board of trustees may reject any request for redemption of shares or amend, suspend or terminate our share redemption program at any time. Therefore, it will be difficult for holders of the Companys common shares to sell their shares promptly or at all. In particular, shareholders may not be able to sell their shares in the event of an emergency, and, if they are able to sell such shares, may have to sell them at a substantial discount. It is also likely that our shares would not be accepted as the primary collateral for a loan to any of our shareholders.
Unless and until the Company or the Maryland REIT causes its shares to be listed on a national securities exchange or includes the shares for quotation on the Nasdaq Stock Market, it is not expected that a public market for the shares will develop. To assist fiduciaries of tax-qualified pension, stock bonus or profit-sharing plans, employee benefit plans and annuities described in Section 403(a) or (b) of the Internal Revenue Code or an individual retirement account or annuity described in Section 408 of the Internal Revenue Code, subject to the annual reporting requirements of ERISA and IRA trustees or custodians in preparation of reports relating to an investment in the shares, the Company intends to provide reports of the quarterly and annual determinations of the current value of the net assets per outstanding share to those fiduciaries who request such reports.
Public Offering Proceeds
The Companys Registration Statement on Form S-11 (SEC File No. 333-111674) was declared effective by the SEC on September 15, 2004 with respect to the Public Offering described in Item 1 above of up to 10,000,000 shares of the Companys common stock to the public at a price of $10 per share, plus up to 1,000,000 shares available for sale pursuant to our dividend reinvestment plan, to be offered at a price of $9.50 per share, and the Company commenced the Public Offering on such date.
22
The 10,000,000 shares offered to the public in the Public Offering are being offered to investors on a best efforts basis, which means that the broker-dealers participating in the offering are only required to use their best efforts to sell the shares and have no firm commitment or obligation to purchase any of the shares.
As of December 31, 2004, no shares had been issued pursuant to the Public Offering, because its terms provided that the Company would not admit new shareholders pursuant to the Public Offering, or receive any proceeds therefrom, until subscriptions aggregating at least $2,000,000 (200,000 shares) were received and accepted by the Company, not including shares sold to residents of either New York or Pennsylvania. As of December 31, 2004, the Company had received and accepted subscriptions for a total of 147,432 shares for gross offering proceeds of $1,474,320 held in escrow as of such date.
As of February 11, 2005, the Company had accepted subscriptions for 277,775 shares (not including shares sold to residents of either New York or Pennsylvania) and, accordingly, 277,775 shares had been issued pursuant to the Public Offering as of such date with gross offering proceeds received of $2,777,750. The Companys application of such gross offering proceeds has been as follows:

Issuer Repurchases
The Company did not repurchase any of its equity securities during the fourth quarter of the period covered by this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Holders
As of March 22, 2005, the Company had 7,443,420 shares of common stock outstanding held by a total of approximately 742 shareholders.
Dividends
In order to remain qualified as a REIT, the Company is required to distribute at least 90% of its annual taxable income to the Companys shareholders. The Company currently accrues dividends quarterly and pays such dividends in three monthly installments following the end of the quarter and intends to continue doing so.
The following table shows the dividends the Company has paid (including the total amount paid and the amount paid on a per share basis) since the Company commenced operations. The amounts provided in the table give effect to our reorganization as a Maryland real estate investment trust and the concurrent recapitalization of our common shares on July 28, 2004.

You should read the following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in this annual report. For more detailed information regarding the basis of presentation for the following information, you should read the notes to the audited consolidated financial statements included in this annual report.
Overview
We own 34 commercial properties, consisting of 19 retail centers, 12 office/warehouse properties and three office buildings. All of our properties are located in the Houston, Texas and San Antonio, Texas metropolitan areas. As of December 31, 2004, we had 632 total tenants. No individual lease or tenant is material to our business. Revenues from our largest lease constituted 2.27% of our total revenues for the year ended December 31, 2004. Leases for our properties range from one year for our smaller spaces to over ten years for larger tenants. Our leases generally include minimum monthly lease payments and tenant reimbursements for payment of taxes, insurance and maintenance.
25
We have no employees and we do not manage our properties. Our properties and day-to-day operations are managed by the Management Company under a property management agreement.
Under the agreement in effect after September 1, 2004, we pay the Management Company the following amounts:
property management fees in an amount not to exceed the fees customarily charged in arms length transactions by others rendering similar services in the same geographic area for similar properties as determined by a survey of brokers and agents in such area. Generally, we expect these fees to be between approximately two and four percent (2.0%-4.0%) of gross revenues for the management of commercial office buildings and approximately five percent (5.0%) of gross revenues for the management of retail and industrial properties.
for the leasing of the properties, a separate fee for the leases of new tenants and renewals of leases with existing tenants in an amount not to exceed the fee customarily charged in arms length transactions by others rendering similar services in the same geographic area for similar properties as determined by a survey of brokers and agents in such area.
except as otherwise specifically provided, all costs and expenses incurred by the Management Company in fulfilling its duties for the account of and on behalf of us. Such costs and expenses shall include the wages and salaries and other employee-related expenses of all on-site and off-site employees of the Management Company who are engaged in the operation, management, maintenance and leasing or access control of our properties, including taxes, insurance and benefits relating to such employees, and legal, travel and other out-of-pocket expenses that are directly related to the management of specific properties.
Our management agreement in effect after September 1, 2004 defines gross revenues as all amounts actually collected as rents or other charges for the use and occupancy of our properties, but excludes interest and other investment income and proceeds received for a sale, exchange, condemnation, eminent domain taking, casualty or other disposition of assets.
Under an advisory agreement effective September 1, 2004, we pay the Management Company for asset management services a quarterly fee in an amount equal to one-fourth of 0.25% of the gross asset value calculated on the last day of each preceding quarter.
Gross asset value is defined as the amount equal to the aggregate book value of our assets (other than investments in bank accounts, money market funds or other current assets), before depreciation, bad debts or other similar non-cash reserves and without reduction for any debt relating to such assets, at the date of measurement, except that during such periods in which we are obtaining regular independent valuations of the current value of our net assets for purposes of enabling fiduciaries of employee benefit plan shareholders to comply with applicable Department of Labor reporting requirements. Gross asset value is the greater of (i) the amount determined pursuant to the foregoing or (ii) our assets aggregate valuation established by the most recent such valuation report without reduction for depreciation, bad debts or other similar non-cash reserves and without reduction for any debt relating to such assets.
Under the agreement in effect prior to September 1, 2004, we paid the Management Company the following amounts:
a management fee of 5% of our effective gross revenues to manage our properties;
a leasing fee of 6% of the effective gross revenues from leases originated by the Management Company and a fee of 4% of the effective gross revenues from expansions or renewals of existing leases;
an administrative fee of 1% of our effective gross revenues for day-to-day supervisory and general administration services; and
26
the reimbursement of all reasonable and necessary expenses incurred or funds advanced in connection with the management and operation of our properties, including expenses and costs relating to maintenance and construction personnel incurred on behalf of our properties; provided, however, that we will not reimburse the Management Company for its overhead, including salaries and expenses of centralized employees other than salaries of certain maintenance and construction personnel.
Our management agreement in effect prior to September 1, 2004 defines effective gross revenues as all payments actually collected from tenants and occupants of our properties, exclusive of:
security payments and deposits (unless and until such deposits have been applied to the payment of current or past due rent); and
pay received from tenants in reimbursement of the expense of repairing damage caused by tenants.
The fees payable to the Management Company under the new agreements effective September 1, 2004 were not significantly different from those that would have been payable under the former agreement.
Critical Accounting Policies
Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on our consolidated financial statements. We prepared these financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of these financial statements required us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. We based our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Our results may differ from these estimates. Currently, we believe that our accounting policies do not require us to make estimates using assumptions about matters that are highly uncertain. You should read Note 1, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, to our financial statements in conjunction with this Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
We have described below the critical accounting policies that we believe could impact our consolidated financial statements most significantly.
Basis of Consolidation. We are the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership and possess full legal control and authority over its operations. As of December 31, 2004, we owned a majority of the partnership interests in the Operating Partnership. Consequently, our consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Operating Partnership. All significant intercompany balances have been eliminated. Minority interest in the accompanying consolidated financial statements represents the share of equity and earnings of the Operating Partnership allocable to holders of partnership interests other than us. Net income is allocated to minority interests based on the weighted-average percentage ownership of the Operating Partnership during the year. Issuance of additional common shares and OP Units changes our ownership interests as well as those of minority interests.
Real Estate. We record real estate properties at cost, net of accumulated depreciation. We capitalize improvements, major renovations and certain costs directly related to the acquisition, improvement and leasing of real estate. We charge expenditures for repairs and maintenance to operations as they are incurred. We calculate depreciation using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of 5 to 39 years of our buildings and improvements. We depreciate tenant improvements using the straight-line method over the life of the lease.
We review our properties for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets, including accrued rental income, may not be recoverable through our operations. We determine whether an impairment in value has occurred by comparing the estimated future cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges), including the estimated residual value of the property, with the carrying cost of the property. If impairment is indicated, we record a loss for the amount by which the carrying
27
value of the property exceeds its fair value. We have determined that there has been no impairment in the carrying value of our real estate assets as of December 31, 2004.
Purchase Price Allocation. We record above-market and below-market in-place lease values for owned properties based on the present value (using an interest rate which reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) of the difference between (i) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to the in-place leases and (ii) managements estimate of fair market lease rates for the corresponding in-place leases, measured over a period equal to the remaining non-cancelable term of the lease. We amortize the capitalized above-market lease values as a reduction of rental income over the remaining non-cancelable terms of the respective leases. We amortize the capitalized below-market lease values as an increase to rental income over the initial term and any fixed-rate renewal periods in the respective leases. Because most of our leases are relatively short term, have inflation or other scheduled rent escalations, and cover periods during which there have been few, and generally insignificant, pricing changes in the specific properties markets, the properties we have acquired have not been subject to leases with terms materially different than then-existing market-level terms.
We measure the aggregate value of other intangible assets acquired based on the difference between (i) the property valued with existing in-place leases adjusted to market rental rates and (ii) the property valued as if vacant. Our managements estimates of value are made using methods similar to those used by independent appraisers, primarily discounted cash flow analysis. Factors considered by management in its analysis include an estimate of carrying costs during hypothetical expected lease-up periods considering current market conditions, and costs to execute similar leases. We also consider information obtained about each property as a result of our pre-acquisition due diligence, marketing and leasing activities in estimating the fair value of the tangible and intangible assets acquired. In estimating carrying costs, management will also include real estate taxes, insurance and other operating expenses and estimates of lost rentals at market rates during the expected lease-up periods, which we expect to primarily range from four to 18 months, depending on specific local market conditions. Our management also estimates costs to execute similar leases including leasing commissions, legal and other related expenses to the extent that such costs are not already incurred in connection with a new lease origination as part of the transaction.
The total amount of other intangible assets acquired is further allocated to in-place lease values and customer relationship intangible values based on our managements evaluation of the specific characteristics of each tenants lease and our overall relationship with that respective tenant. Characteristics considered by our management in allocating these values include the nature and extent of our existing business relationships with the tenant, growth prospects for developing new business with the tenant, the tenants credit quality and expectations of lease renewals (including those existing under the terms of the lease agreement), among other factors.
We amortize the value of in-place leases, if any, to expense over the remaining initial terms of the respective leases, which, for leases with allocated intangible value, we expect to range generally from five to 10 years. The value of customer relationship intangibles is amortized to expense over the remaining initial terms and any renewal periods in the respective leases, but in no event does the amortization period for intangible assets exceed the remaining depreciable life of the building. Should a tenant terminate its lease, the unamortized portion of the in-place lease value and customer relationship intangibles are charged to expense.
Revenue Recognition. All leases on properties we hold are classified as operating leases, and we recognize the related rental income on a straight-line basis over the terms of the related leases. We capitalize or charge to accrued rent receivable, as applicable, differences between rental income earned and amounts due per the respective lease agreements. Percentage rents are recognized as rental income when the thresholds upon which they are based have been met. Recoveries from tenants for taxes, insurance, and other operating expenses are recognized as revenues in the period the corresponding costs are incurred. We provide an allowance for doubtful accounts against the portion of tenant accounts receivable which we estimate to be uncollectible.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
General. During the year ended December 31, 2004, our properties generated sufficient cash flow to cover our operating expenses and to allow us to pay quarterly distributions. We generally lease our properties on a triple-
28
net basis or on bases which provide for tenants to pay for increases in operating expenses over a base year or set amount, which means that tenants are required to pay for all repairs and maintenance, property taxes, insurance and utilities, or increases thereof, applicable to their space. We anticipate that cash flows from operating activities and our borrowing capacity will continue to provide adequate capital for our working capital requirements, anticipated capital expenditures and scheduled debt payments during the next 12 months. We also believe that cash flows from operating activities and our borrowing capacity will allow us to make all distributions required for us to continue to qualify to be taxed as a REIT. We also believe that our properties are adequately covered by insurance.
Cash and Cash Equivalents. We had cash and cash equivalents of $631,978 on December 31, 2004 as compared to $578,687 on December 31, 2003 for operations and to purchase marketable securities. The increase was relatively insignificant because we try to keep cash balances to a minimum by either buying properties, improving properties, reducing debt or making distributions to shareholders. We place all cash in short-term, highly liquid investments that we believe provide appropriate safety of principal.
Our Debt for Borrowed Money.
In December 2002, we refinanced most of our debt with a new credit facility from GMAC Commercial Mortgage Corporation. The loan is secured by, among other things, 18 of our properties, which are held by Hartman REIT Operating Partnership II, L.P., a wholly-owned subsidiary formed for the purpose of this credit facility, and the improvements, personal property and fixtures on the properties, all reserves, escrows and deposit accounts held by Hartman REIT Operating Partnership II, L.P., all intangible assets specific to or used in connection with the properties, and an assignment of rents related to such properties. We believe the fair market value of these properties was approximately $62,000,000 at the time the loan was put in place. We may prepay the loan after July 1, 2005 without penalty. We must pay a prepayment fee equal to one percent of the outstanding principal balance under the facility if we prepay the note prior to July 1, 2005. As of March 1, 2005, the outstanding principal balance under this facility was $34,440,000.
We are required to make monthly interest payments under this credit facility. During the initial term of the note, indebtedness under the credit facility will bear interest at LIBOR plus 2.5% computed on the basis of a 360 day year, adjusted monthly. The interest rate was 4.79% as of December 31, 2004. We are not required to make any principal payments prior to the loans maturity. The credit facility will mature on January 1, 2006, though we have the option, subject to certain conditions, of extending the facility for an additional two-year period. In no event shall the interest rate be lower than 3.82% during the initial term or lower than 4.32% during the extension term.
In addition, Hartman REIT Operating Partnership II, L.P. entered into certain covenants pursuant to the credit facility which, among other things, require it to maintain specified levels of insurance and use the properties securing the note only for retail, light industrial, office, warehouse and commercial office uses. The facility also limits, without the approval of the lender, this wholly-owned subsidiarys ability to:
acquire additional material assets;
merge or consolidate with any other entity;
engage in any other business or activity other than the ownership, operation and maintenance of the properties securing the note;
make certain investments;
incur, assume or guarantee additional indebtedness;
grant certain liens; and
loan money to others.
29
The security documents related to the note contain a covenant which requires Hartman REIT Operating Partnership II, L.P. to maintain adequate capital in light of its contemplated business operations. We believe that this covenant and the other restrictions provided for in our credit facility will not affect or limit Hartman REIT Operating Partnership II, L.P.s ability to make distributions to us. The note and the security documents related thereto also contain customary events of default, including, without limitation, payment defaults, bankruptcy-related defaults and breach of covenant defaults. These covenants only apply to Hartman REIT Operating Partnership II, L.P. and do not impact the other operations of the Operating Partnership, including the operation of our 16 properties which do not secure this debt.
Upon the closing of this financing, we repaid approximately $24,800,000 of existing debt, placed approximately $2,800,000 in escrows established at the closing for taxes, insurance, agreed capital improvement and other uses required by the lender and paid fees and expenses of approximately $600,000 incurred in connection with the credit facility. The remaining proceeds, approximately $6,200,000, were available for general working capital purposes. We used the loan proceeds to repay debt and the remainder to pay accrued real estate taxes and other operating expenses.
On June 30, 2003, the Operating Partnership entered into a $25,000,000 loan agreement with Union Planters Bank, N.A. pursuant to which the Operating Partnership may, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, borrow funds to acquire additional income producing properties. The revolving loan agreement terminates in June, 2005 and provides for interest payments at a rate, adjusted monthly, of either (at the Operating Partnerships option) 30-day LIBOR plus 225 basis points, or Union Planters Bank, N.A.s prime rate less 50 basis points, with either rate subject to a floor of 3.75% per annum. The loan is secured by otherwise unencumbered properties currently directly owned by the Operating Partnership as well as those to be acquired with the proceeds drawn from the facility and all improvements, equipment, fixtures, building materials, consumer goods, furnishings, inventory and articles of personal property related thereto, together with all water rights, timber crops and mineral interests pertaining to the acquired properties, all deposits, bank accounts, instruments arising in virtue of transactions related to the acquired properties, all proceeds from insurance, takings or litigation arising out of the acquired properties and all leases, rents, royalties and profits or other benefits of the acquired properties. As of March 22, 2005, we had borrowed $19,350,000 under this credit facility; and at December 31, 2004, the loan balance was $16,700,000. We are required to make monthly payments of interest only, with the principal and all accrued unpaid interest being due at maturity of the loan. The loan may be prepaid at any time without penalty.
In addition, the Operating Partnership entered into certain covenants pursuant to the loan agreement which, among other things, require it to maintain specified levels of insurance. The facility also limits, among other things, the Operating Partnerships ability to, without the approval of the lender:
declare or pay any distribution during the continuance of a default or event of default;
acquire, consolidate with or merge into any other entity;
permit a material change in the management group;
engage in any other business or activity other than the ownership, operation and maintenance of the properties securing the note;
change the general character of its business;
materially change accounting practices, methods or standards;
sell, lease, transfer, convey or otherwise dispose of a material part of its assets other than in the ordinary course of business;
form any new subsidiary or acquire all of the assets of a third party;
permit its net worth to be less than $70,000,000;
permit the combined occupancy of the properties securing the loan to be less than 86%;
make certain investments;
30
incur, assume, guarantee or alter the terms of certain additional indebtedness;
grant certain liens; and
loan money to others.
The loan agreement and the security documents related thereto also contain customary events of default, including, without limitation, payment defaults, bankruptcy-related defaults, environmental defaults, material uninsured judgment defaults and defaults for breaches of covenant or representations.
In connection with the purchase of the Windsor Park property in December 2003, we assumed a note payable in the amount of $6,550,000 secured by the property. The balance at December 31, 2004 was $6,086,111. The note is payable in equal monthly installments of principal and interest of $80,445, with interest at the rate of 8.34% per annum. The balance of the note is payable in full on December 1, 2006.
In November 2002, we borrowed $3,278,000 from Houston R.E. Income Properties XVI, L.P. This debt was evidenced by a promissory note and accrued interest at a rate of 4.25%. The note was secured by our Corporate Park Northwest property and was payable at any time upon the demand of Houston XVI. We used these borrowed funds to repay existing debt. Mr. Hartman controls the general partner of Houston XVI. We were only required to make monthly interest payments under the note. This note was repaid in full in the second quarter of 2003.
Capital Expenditures. We currently do not expect to make significant capital expenditures or any significant improvements to any of our currently owned properties during the next 12 months. However, we may have unexpected capital expenditures or improvements on our existing assets. Additionally, we intend to continue our ongoing acquisition strategy of acquiring properties in the Houston and San Antonio, Texas metropolitan areas where we believe opportunities exist for acceptable investment returns (generally in the $1,000,000 to $10,000,000 value range), and we may incur significant capital expenditures or make significant improvements in connection with any properties we may acquire.

We have no commercial commitments such as lines of credit or guarantees that might result from a contingent event that would require our performance pursuant to a funding commitment.
Property Acquisitions. During 2004, we acquired from an unrelated party one multi-tenant retail center comprising approximately 95,032 square feet of gross leasable area (GLA). The property was acquired for cash in the amount of approximately $8,900,000.
31
During 2003, we acquired from an unrelated party one multi-tenant retail center comprising approximately 192,458 square feet of GLA. The property was acquired for cash and assumption of debt of $6,550,000 for a total consideration of approximately $13,100,000.
We acquired ten properties from five entities operated by Mr. Hartman during 2002. We acquired four of these properties by merging the selling entities with and into either the Company or the Operating Partnership. In these mergers, we issued common shares or OP Units, as applicable, to equity holders in the selling entities who were accredited investors and paid cash for equity interests held by non-accredited investors. For all ten properties, we issued an aggregate of 1,650,879 common shares (2,358,396 after giving effect to the recapitalization), 2,851,066 OP Units (4,072,947 OP Units after giving effect to the recapitalization), including 1,067,646 OP Units (1,525,207 after giving effect to the recapitalization) issued to HCP, assumed mortgage debt and other liabilities aggregating $15,053,870 and paid approximately $1,811,398 to purchase interests held by non-accredited investors in connection with these mergers.
Common Share Distributions. We declared the following distributions to our shareholders during 2003 and 2004 (as adjusted to give effect to our reorganization as a Maryland real estate investment trust and the concurrent recapitalization of our common shares on July 28, 2004):

Revenues
We had rental income and tenant reimbursements of $23,038,966 for the year ended December 31, 2004, as compared to revenues of $20,605,161 for the year ended December 31, 2003, an increase of $2,433,805, or 12%. Substantially all of our revenues are derived from rents received from the use of our properties. The increase in our revenues during 2004 as compared to 2003 was due to an increase in the amount of rent charged at some locations
33
and the purchase of additional properties. Our average occupancy rate in 2004 was 87%, as compared to 90% in 2003, and our average annualized revenue was $9.14 per square foot in 2004, as compared to an average annualized revenue of $8.93 per square foot in 2003.
We had interest and other income of $444,691 for the year ended December 31, 2004, as compared to $367,790 for the year ended December 31, 2003, an increase of $76,901, or 21%. At December 31, 2004, we held all revenues and escrowed funds we receive from our Public Offering through such date in money market accounts and other short-term, highly liquid investments. We expect the percentage of our total revenues from interest income from investments in money market accounts or other short-term, highly liquid investments to decrease as we invest cash holdings in properties. The increase in interest and other income during 2004 as compared to 2003 resulted primarily from an increase in non-rent income such as late fees and deposit forfeitures.
Expenses
Our total operating expenses, including interest expense and depreciation and amortization expense, were $17,069,628 for the year ended December 31, 2004, as compared to $14,463,982 for the year ended December 31, 2003, an increase of $2,605,646, or 18%. We expect that the dollar amount of operating expenses will increase as we acquire additional properties and expand our operations. However, we expect that general and administrative expenses as a percentage of total revenues will decline as we acquire additional properties.
The increase in our operating expenses during 2004 was primarily the result of increased maintenance, real estate taxes, utilities and depreciation and amortization expenses.
The amount we pay Hartman Management under our management agreement is based on our revenues and the book value of our assets. As a result of our increased revenues and assets in 2004, management fees were $1,339,822 in 2004, as compared to $1,232,127 in 2003, an increase of $107,695, or 9%.
Our interest expense increased by $1,340,757, or 101%, in 2004 as compared to 2003. Our average outstanding debt increased from $37,264,685 in 2003 to $53,705,399 in 2004 and the average interest rate associated with this debt increased from 3.90% in 2003 to 4.54% in 2004.
Finally, general and administrative expenses increased $73,644, or 7%, in 2004 as compared to 2003, primarily as the result of an increase in professional fees.
Net Income
Income provided by operating activities before minority interest was $6,414,029 for the year ended December 31, 2004, as compared to $6,508,969 for the year ended December 31, 2003, a decrease of $94,940, or 1%. Net income provided by operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2004 was $3,423,619, as compared to $3,474,174 for the year ended December 31, 2003, a decrease of $50,555, or 1%.

Revenues
We had rental income and tenant reimbursements of $20,605,161 for the year ended December 31, 2003, as compared to revenues of $20,423,485 for the year ended December 31, 2002, an increase of $181,676, or 1%. Substantially all of our revenues are derived from rents received from the use of our properties. The increase in our revenues during 2003 as compared to 2002 was due to an increase in the amount of rent charged at some locations. Our average occupancy rate in 2003 was 90%, as compared to 90% in 2002, and our average annualized revenue was $8.93 per square foot in 2003, as compared to an average annualized revenue of $8.84 per square foot in 2002.
We had interest and other income of $367,790 for the year ended December 31, 2003, as compared to $331,541 for the year ended December 31, 2002, an increase of $36,249, or 11%. We hold all revenues and proceeds we receive from offerings in money market accounts and other short-term, highly liquid investments. The increase in interest and other income during 2003 as compared to 2002 resulted primarily from temporarily investing excess loan proceeds. Although more cash was invested in 2003 than in 2002, this increase was offset somewhat by the lower interest rates we earned on our investments in 2003 as compared to 2002. We expect the percentage of our total revenues from interest income from investments in money market accounts or other short-term, highly liquid investments to decrease as we invest cash holdings in properties.
Expenses
Our total operating expenses, including interest expense and depreciation and amortization expense, were $14,463,982 for the year ended December 31, 2003, as compared to $13,857,303 for the year ended December 31, 2002, an increase of $606,679, or 4%. We expect that the dollar amount of operating expenses will increase as we acquire additional properties and expand our operations. However, we expect that general and administrative expenses as a percentage of total revenues will decline as we acquire additional properties.
The increase in our operating expenses during 2003 was primarily the result of increased maintenance, insurance, utilities and depreciation and amortization expenses. This increase was partially offset by a decrease in real estate tax expense. Real estate taxes decreased significantly for 2003 due to the settlement of several lawsuits against an appraisal district which resulted in the reduction of previously accrued property taxes.
The amount we pay Hartman Management under our management agreement is based on our revenues and the number of leases that Hartman Management originates. As a result of our increased revenues in 2003, management fees were $1,232,127 in 2003, as compared to $1,231,212 in 2002, an increase of $915, or .07%.
35
Our interest expense decreased by $249,892, or 16%, in 2003 as compared to 2002. Although our average outstanding debt increased from $29,263,144 in 2002 to $37,264,685 in 2003, the average interest rate associated with this debt decreased from 5.38% in 2002 to 3.90% in 2003.
Finally, general and administrative expenses increased $233,741, or 28%, in 2003 as compared to 2002, primarily as the result of an increase in professional fees.
Net Income
Income provided by operating activities before minority interest was $6,508,969 for the year ended December 31, 2003, as compared to $6,897,723 for the year ended December 31, 2002, a decrease of $388,754, or 6%. Net income provided by operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2003 was $3,474,174, as compared to $3,705,118 for the year ended December 31, 2002, a decrease of $230,944, or 6%.
We elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code beginning with our taxable year ended December 31, 1999. As a REIT, we generally are not subject to federal income tax on income that we distribute to our shareholders. If we fail to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, we will be subject to federal income tax on our taxable income at regular corporate rates. We believe that we are organized and operate in such a manner as to qualify to be taxed as a REIT, and we intend to operate so as to remain qualified as a REIT for federal income tax purposes.
We anticipate that our leases will continue to be triple-net leases or otherwise provide that tenants pay for increases in operating expenses and will contain provisions that we believe will mitigate the effect of inflation. In addition, many of our leases are for terms of less than five years, which allows us to adjust rental rates to reflect inflation and other changing market conditions when the leases expire. Consequently, increases due to inflation, as well as ad valorem tax rate increases, generally do not have a significant adverse effect upon our operating results.
Our properties are subject to environmental laws and regulations adopted by various governmental authorities in the jurisdictions in which our operations are conducted. From our inception, we have incurred no significant environmental costs, accrued liabilities or expenditures to mitigate or eliminate future environmental contamination.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
The Company has no significant off-balance sheet arrangements as of December 31, 2004.
In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123R, Share Based Payment. This statement requires companies to categorize share based payment as either liability or equity awards. For liability awards, companies will remeasure the award at fair value at each balance sheet date until the award is settled. Equity classified awards are measured at the grant-date fair value and are not remeasured. SFAS No. 123R is effective for interim or annual periods beginning after June 15, 2005. Awards issued, modified or settled after the effective date will be measured and recorded in accordance with SFAS No. 123R. Management believes that the implementation of this standard will not have a material effect on the Companys consolidated financial position or results of operations.
36
In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 153, Accounting for Non-monetary Transactions. This standard requires that non-monetary exchanges be accounted for at fair value, recognizing any gain or loss, if the transactions meet a commercial-substance criteria and fair value is determinable. SFAS No. 153 is effective for non-monetary transactions occurring in fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005. Management believes that the implementation of this standard will not have a material effect on the Companys consolidated financial position or results of operations.
Market risk is the risk of loss arising from adverse changes in market rates and prices. The principal market risk to which the Company is exposed is the risk related to interest rate fluctuations. The Company will be exposed to changes in interest rates as a result of the Companys credit facilities that have floating interest rates. As of December 31, 2004, the Company had $51,140,000 of indebtedness outstanding under such facilities. The impact of a 1% increase in interest rates on the Companys debt would result in an increase in interest expense and a decrease in income before minority interests of approximately $511,400 annually.
The information required by this Item 8 is hereby incorporated by reference to the Companys Financial Statements beginning on page F-1 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
None.
In accordance with Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Securities and Exchange Act, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of December 31, 2004. No change in our internal control over financial reporting occurred during the fourth fiscal quarter of the period covered by this annual report that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
None.

INDEX TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
All other schedules for which provision is made in the applicable accounting regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission are not required under the related instructions or are inapplicable, and therefore have been omitted.
Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To
the Board of Trustees and Shareholders of
Hartman Commercial Properties REIT
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Hartman Commercial Properties REIT and subsidiary (the Company) as of December 31, 2004 and 2003, and the related consolidated statements of income, shareholders equity and cash flows, for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2004. In connection with our audits of the consolidated financial statements, we have also audited the financial statement schedules as listed in the accompanying index. These consolidated financial statements and financial statement schedules are the responsibility of the Companys management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial statement schedules based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Hartman Commercial Properties REIT and subsidiary as of December 31, 2004 and 2003, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2004 in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Also, in our opinion, the related financial statement schedules, when considered in the relation to the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, present fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein.

Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Description of business and nature of operations
Hartman Commercial Properties REIT (HCP) was formed as a real estate investment trust, pursuant to the Texas Real Estate Investment Trust Act on August 20, 1998 to consolidate and expand the real estate investment strategy of Allen R. Hartman (Hartman) in acquiring and managing office and retail properties. In July 2004, HCP changed its state of organization from Texas to Maryland pursuant to a merger of HCP directly with and into a Maryland real estate investment trust formed for the sole purpose of the reorganization and the conversion of each outstanding common share of beneficial interest of the Texas entity into 1.42857 common shares of beneficial interest of the Maryland entity (see Note 11). Hartman, HCPs Chairman of the Board of Trustees, has been engaged in the ownership, acquisition, and management of commercial properties in the Houston, Texas, metropolitan area for over 20 years. HCP serves as the general partner of Hartman REIT Operating Partnership, L.P. (the Operating Partnership or HROP or OP), which was formed on December 31, 1998 as a Delaware limited partnership. HCP and the Operating Partnership are collectively referred to herein as the Company. HCP currently conducts substantially all of its operations and activities through the Operating Partnership. As the general partner of the Operating Partnership, HCP has the exclusive power to manage and conduct the business of the Operating Partnership, subject to certain customary exceptions. Hartman Management, L.P. (the Management Company), a company wholly-owned by Hartman, provides a full range of real estate services for the Company, including leasing and property management, accounting, asset management and investor relations. As of December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002, the Company owned and operated 34, 33 and 32 office and retail properties in and around Houston and San Antonio, Texas.
Basis of consolidation
HCP is the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership and possesses full legal control and authority over the operations of the Operating Partnership. As of December 31, 2004, HCP owned a majority of the partnership interests in the Operating Partnership. Consequently, the accompanying consolidated financial statements of HCP include the accounts of the Operating Partnership. All significant intercompany balances have been eliminated. Minority interest in the accompanying consolidated financial statements represents the share of equity and earnings of the Operating Partnership allocable to holders of partnership interests other than the Company. Net income is allocated to minority interests based on the weighted-average percentage ownership of the Operating Partnership during the year. Issuance of additional common shares of beneficial interest in HCP (common shares) and units of limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership (OP Units) changes the ownership interests of both the minority interests and HCP.
Basis of accounting
The financial records of the Company are maintained on the accrual basis of accounting whereby revenues are recognized when earned and expenses are recorded when incurred.
Cash and cash equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 2004 and 2003 consist of demand deposits at commercial banks and money market funds.

Due from affiliates include amounts owed to the Company from Hartman operated limited partnerships and other entities.
Escrows and acquisition deposits
Escrow deposits include escrows established pursuant to certain mortgage financing arrangements for real estate taxes, insurance, maintenance and capital expenditures. Escrow deposits also include the proceeds of the Public Offering until investors are admitted as shareholders as described in Note 11. The balance in the Public Offering escrow account was $1,471,974 at December 31, 2004 as follows:

Acquisition deposits include earnest money deposits on future acquisitions.
Real estate
Real estate properties are recorded at cost, net of accumulated depreciation. Improvements, major renovations, and certain costs directly related to the acquisition, improvement, and leasing of real estate are capitalized. Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are charged to operations as incurred. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of 5 to 39 years for the buildings and improvements. Tenant improvements are depreciated using the straight-line method over the life of the lease.
Management reviews its properties for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets, including accrued rental income, may not be recoverable through operations. Management determines whether an impairment in value has occurred by comparing the estimated future cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges), including the estimated residual value of the property, with the carrying cost of the property. If impairment is indicated, a loss will be recorded for the amount by which the carrying value of the property exceeds its fair value. Management has determined that there has been no impairment in the carrying value of the Companys real estate assets as of December 31, 2004.
Deferred costs
Deferred costs consist primarily of leasing commissions paid to the Management Company and deferred financing costs. Leasing commissions are amortized on the straight-line method over the terms of the related lease agreements. Deferred financing costs are amortized on the straight-line method over the terms of the loans, which approximates the interest method. Costs allocated to in-place leases whose terms differ from market terms related to acquired properties are amortized over the remaining life of the respective leases.
Offering costs
Offering costs include selling commissions, issuance costs, investor relations fees and unit purchase discounts. These costs were incurred in the raising of capital through the sale of common shares and are treated as a reduction of shareholders equity.

Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
Revenue recognition
All leases on properties held by the Company are classified as operating leases, and the related rental income is recognized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the related leases. Differences between rental income earned and amounts due per the respective lease agreements are capitalized or charged, as applicable, to accrued rent receivable. Percentage rents are recognized as rental income when the thresholds upon which they are based have been met. Recoveries from tenants for taxes, insurance, and other operating expenses are recognized as revenues in the period the corresponding costs are incurred. The Company provides an allowance for doubtful accounts against the portion of tenant accounts receivable which is estimated to be uncollectible.
Federal income taxes
HCP is qualified as a real estate investment trust (REIT) under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 and is therefore not subject to Federal income taxes provided it meets all conditions specified by the Internal Revenue Code for retaining its REIT status. HCP believes it has continuously met these conditions since reaching 100 shareholders in 1999 (see Note 9).
Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates used by the Company include the estimated useful lives for depreciable and amortizable assets and costs, and the estimated allowance for doubtful accounts receivable. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Fair value of financial instruments
The Companys financial instruments consist primarily of cash, cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts and notes payable. The carrying value of cash, cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable are representative of their respective fair values due to the short-term nature of these instruments. The fair value of the Companys debt obligations is representative of its carrying value based upon current rates offered for similar types of borrowing arrangements.
Concentration of risk
Substantially all of the Companys revenues are obtained from office, office/warehouse and retail locations in the Houston, Texas and San Antonio, Texas metropolitan areas.

Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
Concentration of risk (continued)
The Company maintains cash accounts in major U.S. financial institutions. The terms of these deposits are on demand to minimize risk. The balances of these accounts occasionally exceed the federally insured limits, although no losses have been incurred in connection with such cash balances.
Comprehensive income
The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 130, Reporting Comprehensive Income in 1999. For the years presented, the Company did not have significant amounts of comprehensive income.
New accounting pronouncements
In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123R, Share Based Payment. This statement requires companies to categorize share based payment as either liability or equity awards. For liability awards, companies will remeasure the award at fair value at each balance sheet date until the award is settled. Equity classified awards are measured at the grant-date fair value and are not remeasured. SFAS No. 123R is effective for interim or annual periods beginning after June 15, 2005. Awards issued, modified or settled after the effective date will be measured and recorded in accordance with SFAS No. 123R. Management believes that the implementation of this standard will not have a material effect on the Companys consolidated financial position or results of operations.
In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 153, Accounting for Non-monetary Transactions. This standard requires that non-monetary exchanges be accounted for at fair value, recognizing any gain or loss, if the transactions meet a commercial-substance criteria and fair value is determinable. SFAS No. 153 is effective for non-monetary transactions occurring in fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005. Management believes that the implementation of this standard will not have a material effect on the Companys consolidated financial position or results of operations.

Note 2 - Real Estate (Continued)
The purchase prices the Company paid for the properties were determined by, among other procedures, estimating the amount and timing of expected cash flows from the acquired properties, discounted at market rates. This process in general also results in the assessment of fair value for each property.
The Company allocates the purchase price of real estate to the acquired tangible assets, consisting of land, building and tenant improvements, and identified intangible assets and liabilities, generally consisting of the value of above-market and below-market leases, other value of in-place leases and value of tenant relationships, based in each case on managements estimates of their fair values.
Management estimates the fair value of acquired tangible assets by valuing the acquired property as if it were vacant. The as-if-vacant value (limited to the purchase price) is allocated to land, building, and tenant improvements based on managements determination of the relative fair values of these assets.
Above-market and below-market in-place lease values for owned properties are recorded based on the present value (using an interest rate which reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) of the difference between (i) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to the in-place leases and (ii) managements estimate of fair market lease rates for the corresponding in-place leases, measured over a period equal to the remaining non-cancelable term of the lease. The capitalized above-market lease values are amortized as a reduction of rental income over the remaining non-cancelable terms of the respective leases. The capitalized below-market lease values are amortized as an increase to rental income over the initial term and any fixed-rate renewal periods in the respective leases.
The aggregate value of other intangible assets acquired is measured based on the difference between (i) the property valued with existing in-place leases adjusted to market rental rates and (ii) the property valued as if vacant. Managements estimates of value are made using methods similar to those used by independent appraisers, primarily discounted cash flow analysis. Factors considered by management in its analysis include an estimate of carrying costs during hypothetical expected lease-up periods considering current market conditions, and costs to execute similar leases. The Company also considers information obtained about each property as a result of its pre-acquisition due diligence, marketing and leasing activities in estimating the fair value of the tangible and intangible assets acquired. In estimating carrying costs, management also includes real estate taxes, insurance and other operating expenses and estimates of lost rentals at market rates during the expected lease-up periods, which generally range from four to 18 months, depending on specific local market conditions. Management also estimates costs to execute similar leases including leasing commissions, legal and other related expenses to the extent that such costs are not already incurred in connection with a new lease origination as part of the transaction.

Note 2 - Real Estate (Continued)
The total amount of other intangible assets acquired is further allocated to in-place lease values and customer relationship intangible values based on managements evaluation of the specific characteristics of each tenants lease and the Companys overall relationship with that respective tenant. Characteristics considered by management in allocating these values include the nature and extent of the Companys existing business relationships with the tenant, growth prospects for developing new business with the tenant, the tenants credit quality, and expectations of lease renewals (including those existing under the terms of the lease agreement), among other factors.
The value of in-place leases, if any, is amortized to expense over the remaining initial term of the respective leases, which, for leases with allocated intangible value, are expected to range generally from five to 10 years. The value of customer relationship intangibles is amortized to expense over the remaining initial term and any renewal periods in the respective leases, but in no event does the amortization period for intangible assets exceed the remaining depreciable life of the building. Should a tenant terminate its lease, the unamortized portion of the in-place lease value and customer relationship intangibles are charged to expense.
Effective November 19, 2002, the Company sold one of the properties acquired during 2002 to an unrelated third party. The sales price of the property of $780,000 equaled its carrying value and initial cost and no gain or loss from disposition was recorded. The Company purchased the property from a related party two months earlier. Revenues and operating expenses of the property were minimal and are recorded in the consolidated statements of income for the year ended December 31, 2002. Consideration from the sale included a note receivable from the purchaser in the amount of $420,000 (see Note 4) and $360,000 in cash.
At December 31, 2004, the Company owned 34 commercial properties in the Houston and San Antonio, Texas areas comprising approximately 2,635,000 square feet of GLA.
Note 3 - Investment in Real Estate Partnership
During January 2004, the Company contributed approximately $9,000,000 to Hartman Gulf Plaza Acquisitions LP, a Texas limited partnership, in which it is a limited partner with a 73.11% percentage interest. On January 30, 2004, the partnership purchased Gulf Plaza, a 120,651 square foot office building located in Houston, Texas. The purpose of the partnership is to acquire and sell tenant-in-common interests in the building. The Company has received approximately $9,200,000 in distributions from the partnership for the year ended December 31, 2004.
The Companys equity in income of the partnership of $209,737 for the year ended December 31, 2004 is included in other income on the consolidated statement of income. The Companys remaining investment in the partnership of $9,743 as of December 31, 2004 is included in other assets on the consolidated balance sheet. The partnership owns a one-percent tenant-in-common interest in the building.
Note 4 - Note Receivable
In January 2003, the Company partially financed the sale of a property it had previously sold and for which it had taken a note receivable of $420,000 as part of the consideration. The Company advanced $290,000 and renewed and extended the balance of $420,000 still due from the original sale.
The original principal amount of the note receivable, dated January 10, 2003, is $710,000. The note is payable in monthly installments of $6,382, including interest at 7% per annum, for the first two years of the note. Thereafter, monthly installments of $7,489 are due with interest at 10% per annum. The note is fully amortizing with the final payment due January 10, 2018.

Note 7 - Debt (Continued)
In December 2002, the Company refinanced substantially all of its mortgage debt with a $34,440,000 three-year floating rate mortgage loan collateralized by 18 of the Companys properties and a maturity date of January 1, 2006. The loan bears interest at 2.5% over a LIBOR rate (4.79% and 3.82% at December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively) computed on the basis of a 360-day year and has a two-year extension option. Interest only payments are due monthly for the first 30 month period after the origination date, after which the loan may be repaid in full or in $100,000 increments, with a final balloon payment due upon maturity. The Company capitalized loan costs of $1,271,043 financed from the proceeds of the refinancing. The security documents related to the mortgage loan contain a covenant that requires Hartman REIT Operating Partnership II, L.P., a wholly-owned subsidiary formed for the purpose of this credit facility, to maintain adequate capital in light of its contemplated operations. This covenant and the other restrictions provided for in the credit facility do not affect Hartman REIT Operating Partnership II, L.P.s ability to make distributions to the Company.
On June 30, 2003, the Company entered into a $25,000,000 loan agreement with a bank pursuant to which the Company may, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, borrow funds to acquire additional income producing properties. The revolving loan agreement terminates in June 2005 and provides for interest payments at a rate, adjusted monthly, of either (at the Companys option) 30-day LIBOR plus 225 basis points, or the banks prime rate less 50 basis points, with either rate subject to a floor of 3.75% per annum. The loan will be secured by currently owned, unencumbered properties and by properties acquired with the proceeds drawn from the facility. As of December 31, 2004, the Company had borrowed $16,700,000 under this credit facility. The Company is required to make monthly payments of interest only, with the principal and all accrued unpaid interest being due at maturity of the loan. The loan may be prepaid at any time without penalty.
In connection with the purchase of the Windsor Park property in December 2003, the Company assumed a note payable in the amount of $6,550,000 secured by the property. The balance at December 31, 2004 was $6,086,111. The note is payable in equal monthly installments of principal and interest of $80,445, with interest at the rate of 8.34% per annum. The balance of the note is payable in full on December 1, 2006.
As of December 31, 2004, annual maturities of notes payable, including the revolving loan, are as follows:

The note was secured by property and due upon demand with interest only payments due monthly. The note was repaid in the second quarter of 2003.
Supplemental cash flow information
The Company made cash payments for interest on debt of $2,728,985, $1,321,758 and $1,636,904 for the years ended December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002, respectively.
Note 8 - Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per share is computed using net income to common shareholders and the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share reflects common shares issuable from the assumed conversion of OP Units convertible into common shares. Only those items that have a dilutive impact on basic earnings per share are included in the diluted earnings per share. Accordingly, because conversion of OP Units into common shares is antidilutive, no OP Units were included in the diluted earnings per share calculations.

Note 9 - Federal Income Taxes
Federal income taxes are not provided because the Company intends to and believes it qualifies as a REIT under the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code. Shareholders of the Company include their proportionate taxable income in their individual tax returns. As a REIT, the Company must distribute at least 90% of its ordinary taxable income to its shareholders and meet certain income sources and investment restriction requirements. In addition, REITs are subject to a number of organizational and operational requirements. If the Company fails to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, the Company will be subject to federal income tax (including any applicable alternative minimum tax) on its taxable income at regular corporate tax rates.
Taxable income differs from net income for financial reporting purposes principally due to differences in the timing of recognition of interest, real estate taxes, depreciation and rental revenue.

Note 10 - Related-Party Transactions
In January 1999, the Company entered into a property management agreement with the Management Company. Effective September 1, 2004, this agreement was amended and restated. Prior to September 1, 2004, in consideration for supervising the management and performing various day-to-day affairs, the Company paid the Management Company a management fee of 5% and a partnership management fee of 1% based on Effective Gross Revenues from the properties, as defined. After September 1, 2004, the Company pays the Management Company management fees in an amount not to exceed the fees customarily charged in arms length transactions by others rendering similar services in the same geographic area, as determined by a survey of brokers and agents in such area. The Company expects these fees to be between approximately 2% and 4% of Gross Revenues, as such term is defined in the amended and restated property management agreement, for the management of commercial office buildings and approximately 5% of Gross Revenues for the management of retail and industrial properties. Effective September 1, 2004, the Company entered into an advisory agreement with the Management Company which provides that the Company pay the Management Company a fee of one-fourth of .25% of Gross Asset Value, as such term is defined in the advisory agreement, per quarter for asset management services. The Company incurred total management, partnership and asset management fees of $1,339,822, $1,232,127 and $1,231,212 for the years ended December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002, respectively, of which $54,331 and $93,006 were payable at December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively.
During July 2004, the Company amended certain terms of its Declaration of Trust. Under the amended terms, the Management Company may be required to reimburse the Company for operating expenses exceeding certain limitations determined at the end of each fiscal quarter. Reimbursements, if any, from the Management Company are recorded on a quarterly basis as a reduction in management fees.
Under the provisions of the property management agreements, costs incurred by the Management Company for the management and maintenance of the properties are reimbursable to the Management Company. At December 31, 2004 and 2003, $188,772 and $288,305, respectively, was payable to the Management Company related to these reimbursable costs.
In consideration of leasing the properties, the Company also pays the Management Company leasing commissions of 6% for leases originated by the Management Company and 4% for expansions and renewals of existing leases based on Effective Gross Revenues from the

properties. The Company incurred total leasing commissions to the Management Company of $952,756, $978,398 and $890,852 for the years ended December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002, respectively, of which $232,343 and $175,725 were payable at December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively.
The fees payable to the Management Company under the new agreements effective September 1, 2004 were not significantly different from those that would have been payable under the previous agreement.
In connection with the Public Offering described in Note 11, the Company reimburses the Management Company up to 2.5% of the gross selling price of all common shares sold for organization and offering expenses (excluding selling commissions and a dealer manager fee) incurred by the Management Company on behalf of the Company. No such reimbursable expenses were incurred for the year ended December 31, 2004 because the Company had not received the minimum subscription proceeds required to break escrow.
Also in connection with the Public Offering described in Note 11, the Management Company also receives an acquisition fee equal to 2% of the gross selling price of all common shares sold for services in connection with the selection, purchase, development or construction of properties for the Company. No such fees were incurred for the year ended December 31, 2004 because the Company had not received the minimum subscription proceeds required to break escrow.
In connection with the Private Offering as described in Note 11, the Company paid the Management Company a fee of up to 2% of the gross selling price of all common shares sold in consideration of offering services performed by the Management Company. The Company incurred total fees of $3,259 for the year ended December 31, 2002. Such fees have been treated as offering costs and netted against the proceeds from the sale of common shares.
Also in connection with the Private Offering as described in Note 11, the Management Company received an acquisition fee equal to 4% of the gross selling price of all common shares sold as a reimbursement of expenses incurred in identifying reviewing, and acquiring properties for the Company. The Company incurred total fees of $6,766 for the year ended December 31, 2002. Such fees have been treated as offering costs and netted against the proceeds from the sale of common shares.
The Management Company paid the Company $106,824, $106,789 and $79,168 for office space in 2004, 2003 and 2002, respectively. Such amounts are included in rental income in the consolidated statements of income.
In conjunction with the acquisition of certain properties, the Company assumed liabilities payable to the Management Company. At December 31, 2004 and 2003, $200,415 was payable to the Management Company related to these liabilities.
HCPs day-to-day operations are strategically directed by the Board of Trustees and implemented through the Management Company. Hartman is HCPs Board Chairman and sole owner of the Management Company. Hartman was owed $47,386 and $41,306 in dividends payable on his common shares at December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively. Hartman owned 3.9%, 3.4% and 3.4% of the issued and outstanding common shares of the Company as of December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002, respectively.
The Company was a party to various other transactions with related parties which are reflected in due to/from affiliates in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and also disclosed in Notes 2, 7 and 11.

Note 11 - Shareholders Equity
In July 2004, HCP changed its state of organization from Texas to Maryland pursuant to a merger of HCP directly with and into a Maryland real estate investment trust formed for the sole purpose of the reorganization and the conversion of each outstanding common share of beneficial interest of the Texas entity into 1.42857 common shares of beneficial interest of the Maryland entity. Under its Articles of Amendment and Restatement in effect, HCP has authority to issue 400,000,000 common shares of beneficial interest, $0.001 par value per share, and 50,000,000 preferred shares of beneficial interest, $0.001 par value per share. All capital stock amounts, share and per share information in the accompanying consolidated financial statements and the related notes to consolidated financial statements have been adjusted to retroactively reflect this recapitalization.
Prior to June 2004, the Charter and Bylaws of HCP authorized HCP to issue up to 100,000,000 common shares at $0.001 par value per share, and 10,000,000 Preferred Shares at $0.001 par value per share. HCP commenced a private offering (the Private Offering) in May 1999 to sell 2,500,000 common shares, par value $.001 per share, at a price of $10 per common share for a total Private Offering of $25,000,000. HCP intended that the Private Offering be exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, pursuant to Regulation D promulgated thereunder. The common shares are restricted securities and are not transferable unless they subsequently are registered under the 1933 Act and applicable state securities laws or an exemption from such registration is available. The Private Offering was directed solely to accredited investors as such term is defined in Regulation D. Pursuant to the Private Offering, HCP sold for cash or issued in exchange for property or OP Units, 4,907,107 (7,010,146 after the reorganization) shares as of December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002. HCP conducts substantially all of its operations through the Operating Partnership. All net proceeds of the Private Offering were contributed by HCP to the Operating Partnership in exchange for OP Units. The Operating Partnership used the proceeds to acquire additional commercial properties and for general working capital purposes. HCP received one OP Unit for each $10 contributed to the Operating Partnership. OP Units were valued at $10 per unit because they are convertible on a one-for-one basis to common shares which were being sold in the Private Offering for $10 per common share.
On September 15, 2004, HCPs Registration Statement on Form S-11, with respect to a public offering (the Public Offering) of up to 10,000,000 common shares of beneficial interest to be offered at a price of $10 per share was declared effective under the Securities Act of 1933. The Registration Statement also covers up to 1,000,000 shares available pursuant to HCPs dividend reinvestment plan to be offered at a price of $9.50 per share. The shares are offered to investors on a best efforts basis.
As of December 31, 2004, no shares had been issued pursuant to the Public Offering. HCP will not admit new shareholders pursuant to the Public Offering or receive proceeds from the Public Offering until it receives and accepts subscriptions for a minimum of 200,000 shares for gross offering proceeds of $2,000,000. As of December 31, 2004, HCP had received and accepted subscriptions for 147,432 shares for gross offering proceeds of $1,474,320. After the initial 200,000 shares are sold, subscription proceeds will be held in escrow until investors are admitted as shareholders. HCP intends to admit new stockholders at least monthly. At that time, subscription proceeds may be released to HCP from escrow and applied to the making of investments and the payment or reimbursement of the dealer manager fee, selling commissions and other organization and offering expenses. Until required for such purposes, net offering proceeds will be held in short-term, liquid investments.
As of February 11, 2005, 277,775 shares had been issued pursuant to the Public Offering with gross offering proceeds received of $2,777,750.
At December 31, 2004, Hartman and the Board of Trustees collectively owned 8.22% of HCPs outstanding shares.

Operating Partnership units
Limited partners in the Operating Partnership holding OP Units have the right to convert their OP Units into common shares at a ratio of one OP Unit for one common share. In connection with the reorganization discussed above, OP Unit holders received 1.42857 OP Units for each OP Unit previously held. Subject to certain restrictions, OP Units are not convertible into common shares until the later of one year after acquisition or an initial public offering of the common shares. As of December 31, 2004 and 2003, after giving effect to the recapitalization, there were 12,456,995 OP Units outstanding. HCP owned 6,648,658 Units as of December 31, 2004 and 2003. HCPs weighted-average share ownership in the Operating Partnership was approximately 53.37%, 53.37% and 53.71% during the years ended December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002, respectively. At December 31, 2004, Hartman and the Board of Trustees collectively owned 9.50% of the Operating Partnerships outstanding units.
During 2002, the Company acquired ten properties from various Hartman operated limited partnerships in exchange for 2,851,066 (4,072,947 after giving effect to the recapitalization) OP Units valued at $10 per unit at the time of the acquisition (see Note 2).
Dividends and distributions
The following tables summarize the cash dividends/distributions payable to holders of common shares and holders of OP Units (after giving effect to the recapitalization) related to the years ended December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002.

Note 12 - Incentive Share Plan
The Company has adopted an Employee and Trust Manager Incentive Share Plan (the Incentive Share Plan) to (i) furnish incentives to individuals chosen to receive share-based awards because they are considered capable of improving operations and increasing profits; (ii) encourage selected persons to accept or continue employment with the Company; and (iii) increase the interest of employees and Trustees in the Companys welfare through their participation and influence on the growth in value of the common shares. The class of eligible persons that can receive grants of incentive awards under the Incentive Share Plan consists of key employees, directors, non-employee trustees, members of the Management Company and consultants as determined by the compensation committee of the Board of Trustees. The total number of common shares that may be issued under the Incentive Share Plan is an amount of shares equal to 5% of the outstanding shares on a fully diluted basis. As of December 31, 2004, no options or awards to purchase common shares have been granted under the Incentive Share Plan.

Note 12 - Incentive Share Plan (Continued)
Under SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock Based Compensation, and SFAS No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation-Transition and Disclosure, an amendment of FASB Statement No. 123, the Company is permitted to either record compensation expense for incentive awards granted to employees and directors based on their fair value on the date of grant or to apply the intrinsic value method prescribed in Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and recognize compensation expense, if any, to the extent that the fair market value of the underlying stock on the grant date exceeds the exercise price of the award granted. Compensation expense for awards granted to employees and directors is currently based on the intrinsic value method. For awards granted to non-employees, such as Trustees, employees of the Management Company, and consultants, the Company currently records expense based on the awards fair value on its date of grant as required by SFAS 123 and SFAS 148.
Note 13 - Commitments and Contingencies
The Company is a participant in various legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of business. These matters are generally covered by insurance.
