CATELLUS DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION
PART I
Item 1. Business
Catellus Development Corporation is a publicly traded real estate development company that began operating as a real estate investment trust (REIT) effective January 1, 2004 (all references to Catellus or the Company mean the current Catellus or its predecessor, as applicable.) We focus on managing, acquiring, and developing predominantly industrial rental property in many of the countrys major distribution centers and transportation corridors. Catellus principal objective is sustainable, long-term growth in earnings, which we seek to achieve by applying our strategic resources: a lower-risk/higher-return rental portfolio, a focus on expanding that portfolio through development, and the deployment of our proven land development skills to select opportunities where we can generate profits to recycle back into our core industrial business.
Our rental portfolio, which at December 31, 2003, consisted of approximately 38.2 million square feet of commercial property, of which approximately 89.4% is industrial, provides a relatively consistent source of earnings. Our geographically diverse rental portfolio is located in many of the countrys top tier distribution markets including Southern California, Dallas, and Chicago. We also have plans to expand to Atlanta and New Jersey. The majority of our rental portfolio is relatively new and has been developed by us. Our customers include high-quality firms that want state-of-the-art buildings to accommodate the needs of todays distribution technologies.
We own a significant portfolio of developable land intended for future growth. At December 31, 2003, our land portfolio was capable of supporting over 32.4 million square feet of space. Our development activities provide cash flow through the sale of land or the conversion of developable land to property that is either added to our portfolio or sold to tenants, other developers, investors, or other interested parties. We invest in new land to ensure our potential for future growth.
Catellus was formed originally in 1984 to conduct the non-railroad activities of the Santa Fe Pacific Corporation. In 1990, the Company was spun off to stockholders and began trading on the New York Stock Exchange, as a C corporation, under the symbol CDX. Our railroad heritage gave us a diverse base of developable property located near and along major transportation corridors in major western United States markets. This land proved suitable for the development of a variety of product types, including industrial, retail, office, and residential. Over time, we have expanded our business by focusing on the acquisition and development of land suitable primarily for industrial property in many of the same suburban locations where we have an established presence.
In March of 2003, Catellus announced its intention to restructure its business to allow it to operate as a REIT, a decision that was approved by the stockholders in September 2003. The current Catellus was organized in Delaware on March 28, 2003 as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the predecessor Catellus. On December 1, 2003, we completed the merger of affiliated entities, which was part of the restructuring of our business operations to allow us to operate as a REIT. The conversion to operating as a REIT was effective January 1, 2004.
In order to qualify as a REIT, Catellus must distribute at least 90% of its taxable income to shareholders. Prior to the REIT conversion, Catellus had operated as a C corporation since its incorporation. Because a REIT is not permitted to retain earnings and profits accumulated during the years when the Company or its predecessor was taxed as a C corporation, Catellus paid a one-time special dividend in order to distribute all of its C-corporation earnings and profits. The special E&P distribution of approximately $100 million in cash and 10.7 million shares of our common stock was paid to shareholders on December 18, 2003. The Company also paid its first quarterly dividend on November 25, 2003. As a REIT, Catellus current quarterly dividend is $0.27 per share. The actual amount of the dividends for subsequent quarters will be as determined and declared by the Companys Board of Directors and will depend on the Companys financial condition, earnings, and other factors, many of which are beyond the Companys control.

We have currently two primary reporting segments. The first segment, or Core Segment, reflects the part of our business that we expect will be ongoing and central to our future operations. The second segment, or Urban, Residential & Other Segment, reflects our urban and residential businesses, including residential lot development, urban development, and desert land sales, which we intend to transition out of over time, and REIT transition costs.
For more information about the Companys reportable segments, see Note 13 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Form 10-K.
Our goal is to enhance stockholder value by implementing a focused business strategy that provides stable cash flow and growth opportunities. To accomplish this, we intend to:
| Capitalize on our strengths and the stability of cash flows generated from our newly developed industrial rental portfolio with the long term goal of increasing the percentage of total revenue from industrial rents; |
| Increase our focus on lower-risk, higher return industrial property development and management; |
| Leverage our land development skills and selectively seek opportunistic land development projects outside of our core industrial business; and |
| Reinvest capital from our existing urban and residential properties into the industrial business. |
We expect to pursue our investment objectives through the direct and indirect ownership, development, and management of properties. We intend to focus on properties in those markets where we currently have operations and in new markets selectively targeted by management. However, future investments or development activities will not be limited to any geographic area or to a specified percentage or amount of our assets. We intend to engage in such further investment and development activities in a manner that is consistent with the maintenance of our REIT status for federal income tax purposes. Although we generally prefer to own property directly, we may participate with other entities in property ownership through joint ventures or other types of co-ownership.
Our principal office is located at 201 Mission Street, San Francisco, California 94105; our telephone number at that location is (415) 974-4500; and our website address is www.catellus.com. This annual report on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, current reports on Form 8-K, and all amendments to these reports are available free of charge through our website as soon as reasonably practicable after such material is electronically filed with or furnished to the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Environmental Matters
For information about environmental matters, see Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in this Form 10-K.
Competition
The real estate industry is generally fragmented and characterized by significant competition. Numerous developers, owners of industrial, and other properties, and managers compete with us in seeking properties for acquisition, development, and management opportunities; tenants for buildings; purchasers for homes; and for non-strategic assets. There are competitors in each area in which we operate who have greater capital resources than we. There can be no assurance that the existence of such competition will not have a material adverse effect on our business, operations, and cash flow.

Employees, Contractors, and Consultants
At December 31, 2003, we had 232 employees in our consolidated company. We engage third parties to manage multi-tenant properties and properties in locations that are not in proximity to our regional or field offices. The Companys employees are not represented by a collective bargaining agreement, and management considers its relations with employees to be good. In addition, we engage outside consultants such as architects and design firms in connection with our pre-development activities. We also employ third-party contractors on development projects for infrastructure and building construction, and retain consultants to assist us in a variety of areas at the project and corporate levels.
Working with organized labor is a critical component of many of our projects. With the high volume of construction activity in many of our markets, labor shortages and costs could significantly influence the success of projects. In addition, organized labor often plays a key role in community organizations and discretionary land use decisions concerning entitlements.
Item 2. Properties
Our principal executive office is located in San Francisco, California, and we have regional or field offices in eleven other locations throughout the United States. We believe that our property and equipment are generally well maintained, in good condition, and adequate for our present needs.
Property Portfolio
Rental Portfolio
Our rental portfolio is comprised of commercial rental property, ground leases and other properties, and interests in several joint ventures. We own 38.2 million square feet of commercial rental property of which 89.4% is industrial, 8.2% is office, and 2.4% is retail. Since the end of 1995, our portfolio has expanded by more than 24 million square feet, or 171%, primarily through our development activities. We also own approximately 5,700 acres of land subject to ground leases, approximately 755,000 square feet of other rent generating properties located at our urban development projects, the majority of which is projected to be converted to redevelopment opportunities, and joint venture interests in two hotels and two office buildings.

Operating Joint Venture Portfolio
Catellus had direct or indirect equity interests in four joint ventures that owned rental properties during the year. The joint ventures provided us with cash distributions of $16.1 million and earnings of $6.9 million partially offset by cash contributions totalling $0.3 million to one joint venture for the year ended December 31, 2003. The joint venture agreements of these joint ventures contain provisions with certain safeguard features for our investments, such as voting rights in major decisions of the joint ventures, and venture partners consents on sales of a venture partners ownership interest.
11
In entering into joint venture transactions, we evaluate the merits and risks of the joint venture assets and structure as well as the financial condition of other co-ownership entities in making our investment decision. We have no formal policies on structural issues such as voting control requirements, veto powers, or purchase provisions, but instead, we evaluate the investment opportunity in its entirety when making such a decision.
We owned joint venture interests in the following operating properties for the years presented.

Ground Leases and Other Properties:
Ground Leases
We own approximately 5,600 acres of ground leases that we intend to hold but do not consider part of our primary rental portfolio. We expect that the level of income generated from this category will remain relatively constant over the next several years.

Other Properties
In addition to 38.2 million square feet of buildings in our rental portfolio, we also own other income-generating properties at our urban development projects that we intend to convert to land development, two train stations, and ground leases that are being marketed for sale (1) (Other Property). As of December 31, 2003, our Other Property portfolio included 15 buildings aggregating approximately 755,000 square feet; several parking lots; and 100 acres of ground leases being marketed for sale. Approximately 52 acres of the 100 acres of ground leases were sold in January 2004. We expect that the level of income generated from this category will decline as development occurs and acres are sold over the next several years.

Other Land Holdings
As of December 31, 2003, we own approximately 106,000 acres of land in the Southern California desert. The ownership of these desert properties is the result of historical land grants to our railroad predecessors. Because of its location, lack of contiguity among parcels, and other factors, much of this land currently is not suitable for traditional development activities. We have explored the potential for agricultural, mineral, water, telecommunications, energy, and waste management uses for these desert properties and concluded that the land, although valuable, does not fit within our overall business strategy.
16
We will continue to pursue sale, lease, and exchange opportunities involving public and private buyers, as well as other arrangements, to realize the optimum value of this land. These transactions are often complicated and, therefore, may take a significant amount of time to complete.
See Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of OperationsGain on Non-Strategic Asset Sales of this Form 10-K for information regarding the aggregate total of non-strategic asset sales.
Item 3. Legal Proceedings
The Company is subject to lawsuits, certain governmental proceedings (including environmental actions), and various environmental remediation orders of local governmental agencies, in each case arising in the ordinary course of business. Although the outcome of these lawsuits or other proceedings against the Company and the cost of compliance with any governmental order cannot be predicted with certainty, management does not expect any of these matters to have a material adverse effect on our business, future results of operation, financial condition, or liquidity.
Although the Company is a party to routine proceedings incidental to its business, the Company is not a party to, nor is its property the subject of, any material pending legal proceeding, except as provided below.
On March 12, 2002, the Department of Toxics and Substance Control of the State of California (DTSC) notified the Company of an investigation of the Company, its general contractors, and subcontractors working for such general contractors, concerning the Mission Bay project. The investigation, which is ongoing, focuses on whether individuals and companies hauling soil within and from Mission Bay satisfied certain hazardous waste license/certification hauling requirements. The DTSC issued notices of violation, without fines or penalties, to the Company and one subcontractor on May 23, 2002, citing the subcontractors failure to qualify as a registered hazardous waste hauler. The Company is cooperating fully with the investigation. The Company does not anticipate that this investigation or any proceeding that may result from this investigation will have a material adverse impact on the Mission Bay project.
The Company owns approximately 47 acres located in the WestchesterPlaya Del Rey area of Los Angeles, California adjacent to the Pacific Ocean and Ballona Wetlands (West Bluffs), which have an entitlement for the development of 114 single family homes but are subject to three legal actions. On October 6, 2000, a lawsuit (the Coastal Act Lawsuit) was filed by the Sierra Club et al. against the California Coastal Commission and the Company as a real party in interest in the San Francisco Superior Court challenging approvals issued by the California Coastal Commission for the development of the project. This suit was subsequently consolidated with an additional suit filed on February 9, 2001.
On December 13, 2000, the trial court denied petitioners request for a preliminary injunction in the Coastal Act Lawsuit. On January 11, 2001, petitioners appealed the trial courts ruling, which resulted in the First District Court of Appeal (First District) enjoining any construction activity in the portion of the project within the coastal zone. This stay was dissolved on October 10, 2001, when the case was remanded to the trial court. On June 7, 2002, the trial court ruled in favor of the Company on the merits, denying the petitioners request for writ of mandate and for injunction. The petitioners subsequently filed a motion to stay construction in the coastal zone pending petitioners filing of an appeal of the trial courts decision, which motion was granted on August 13, 2002. The petitioners then filed an appeal to the First District and sought and obtained a stay from that court pending resolution of the appeal. The appeal was fully briefed and a hearing was held on March 26, 2003. The First District issued its opinion affirming in full the San Francisco Superior Court finding in favor of the Company and dissolving the stay on April 11, 2003. Furthermore, on May 9, 2003, the First District denied the petitioners petition for rehearing. The petitioners filed a petition for review in the California Supreme Court on May 22, 2003. On July 23, 2003 the Supreme Court granted review, but on August 18, 2003, it denied petitioners request for a stay to prevent development of the project site. The case has been fully briefed, but a hearing date has not yet been set.
17
On March 26, 1999, the Coalition for Concerned Communities, Inc. et al. (the Coalition) filed a lawsuit (CEQA Lawsuit) against the Company and The City of Los Angeles in the Los Angeles Superior Court alleging land use and California Environmental Quality Act violations with respect to the West Bluffs project. On January 18, 2001, the Los Angeles Superior Court denied the Coalitions petition and found in favor of the Company. On March 23, 2001, the Coalition filed a notice of appeal in the Second District Court of Appeal (Second District). On July 15, 2002, the Coalition filed a motion in the Second District to stop the development of the West Bluffs project until the final decision on the appeal, which motion was denied by the court on July 30, 2002. The Second District held a hearing on the merits on September 17, 2002 and submitted the matter. On March 17, 2003, the Second District vacated the submission and postponed rendering its decision. On May 19, 2003, the Coalition filed another motion in the Second District to stop the development of the West Bluffs project. On May 28, 2003, the Second District denied the Coalitions motion. The Second District denied a subsequent stay request on August 19, 2003. On September 8, 2003, the Second District affirmed the trials courts decision in favor of the Company. On October 20, 2003, the Coalition filed a petition for review in the California Supreme Court, which granted review on December 17, 2003. The review is limited to the issue of whether the Mello Roos Act affordable housing requirements apply to the West Bluffs project.
On July 16, 2003, three residents who live near the West Bluffs site filed a lawsuit in the Los Angeles Superior Court against the Company based upon a public easement theory. On August 26, 2003, the court denied plaintiffs motion for a preliminary injunction to stay development of the project. Two of the three residents have dismissed their claims. The Company has filed a motion for summary judgment as to the third resident and a hearing on that motion is scheduled for May 2004. A non-binding mediation is scheduled for April 2004, and trial is set to begin in August 2004.
The litigation process delayed the previously planned start of infrastructure construction. However, because the First District has dissolved the stay in the Coastal Act Lawsuit that prevented construction activity and no other legal impediments currently exist, the Companys infrastructure construction on the West Bluffs site is progressing and the process of preparing the site for home construction is proceeding. Although the Company intends to proceed with the work needed to complete the West Bluffs project, there can be no assurance that further litigation proceedings with respect to the West Bluffs project will not result in additional delays. The Company is unable to predict the length of any such delay at this time. The Company does not believe that the litigation process will permanently prevent the Company from completing the West Bluffs project; however, there can be no assurance in that regard.
Also see Note 15, Commitments and Contingencies, of the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements.

Item 7. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The Company:
Catellus Development Corporation is a publicly traded real estate development company that began operating as a REIT effective January 1, 2004. We operated as a C-corporation through December 31, 2003. We focus on managing, acquiring, and developing predominantly industrial rental property in many of the countrys major distribution centers and transportation corridors. Catellus principal objective is sustainable, long-term growth in earnings, which we seek to achieve by applying our strategic resources: a lower-risk/higher-return rental portfolio, a focus on expanding that portfolio through development, and the deployment of our proven land development skills to select opportunities where we can generate profits to recycle back into our core industrial business.
Catellus was originally formed in 1984 to conduct the non-railroad real estate activities of the Santa Fe Pacific Corporation and was spun off to stockholders effective in 1990. Our railroad heritage gave us a diverse base of developable properties located near transportation corridors in major western United States markets. This land has proven suitable for the development of a variety of product types, including industrial, retail, office, and residential. Over time, we have expanded our business by acquiring land suitable for primarily industrial development in many of the same suburban locations where we have an established presence.
Our rental portfolio provides a relatively consistent source of earnings and our development activities provide cash flow through sales of land or the conversion of our developable land to property that is either added
21
to our portfolio or sold to tenants, developers, investors or other interested parties. We invest in new land to ensure our potential for growth. As of December 31, 2003, we owned 38.2 million square feet of commercial rental properties, of which approximately 89.4% is industrial space. Our industrial rental portfolio is geographically diverse, located in major transportation corridors and distribution centers such as Southern California, Chicago, Dallas, with plans to expand to Atlanta and New Jersey. The majority of our rental portfolio is of newer construction and leased to diverse, high quality tenants through long-term leases with staggered lease expirations.
Critical Accounting Policies
Our discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is based on our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of our consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to revenue recognition, impairment of real estate assets, capitalization of costs, including job costing, allowances for doubtful accounts, environmental and legal reserves, and income taxes. We base our estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
We believe the following critical accounting policies reflect our more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements.
Revenue and profit recognition
Our revenue is primarily derived from two sources: rental revenue from our rental portfolio and property sales.
Rental revenue is recognized when due from tenants. Revenue from leases with rent concessions or fixed escalations is recognized on a straight-line basis over the initial term of the related lease. The financial terms of leases are contractually defined. Rental revenue is not accrued when a tenant vacates the premises and ceases to make rent payments or files for bankruptcy.
Revenue from sales of properties is recognized using the accrual method. If a sale does not qualify for the accrual method of recognition, other deferral methods are used as appropriate including the percentage-of-completion method. In certain instances, when we receive an inadequate cash down payment and take a promissory note for the balance of the sale price, the sale is deferred until such time as sufficient cash is received to meet minimum down payment requirements. Also, in general, specific identification and relative sales value methods are used to determine the cost of sales. A change in circumstances that causes the estimate of future costs, such as carrying costs, and construction costs, to increase or decrease significantly would affect the gain or loss recognized on future sales.
Impairment of real estate assets
We assess the impairment of a real estate asset when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the net book value may not be recoverable. Indicators we consider important which could trigger an impairment review include the following:
| significant negative industry or economic trend; |
| a significant underperformance relative to historical or projected future operating results; |
22
| a significant change in the manner in which an asset is used; and |
| an accumulation of costs significantly in excess of the amount originally expected to construct an asset. |
Real estate is stated at cost using the methodology described as follows: (a) for operating properties and properties held for development a write-down to estimated fair value is recognized when a propertys estimated undiscounted future cash flow is less than its net book value; and (b) for properties held for sale, a write-down to estimated fair value is recorded when we determine that the net book value exceeds the estimated selling price, less cost to sell. These evaluations are made on a property-by-property basis. When we determine that the net book value of an asset may not be recoverable based upon the estimated undiscounted cash flow, we measure any impairment write-down based on projected and probability weighted discounted cash flow method using an estimated market discount rate. When performing impairment review, we consider capitalized interest and other expenses as costs of development in costs projections; value from comparable property sales will also be considered. The evaluation of future cash flows, discount rates, and fair value of individual properties requires significant judgment and assumptions, including estimates of market value, lease terms, development absorption, development costs, lease up costs, and financings. Significant adverse changes in circumstances affecting these judgments and assumptions in future periods could cause a significant impairment adjustment to be recorded.
Capitalization of costs
We capitalize direct construction and development costs, including predevelopment costs, property taxes, insurance, and certain indirect project costs, including a portion of our general and administrative costs that are associated with the acquisition, development, or construction of a project. Interest is capitalized in accordance with FAS 34. Costs previously capitalized related to any abandoned sales or acquisitions opportunities are written off. Should development activity decrease, a portion of interest, property taxes, insurance, and certain general and administrative costs would no longer be eligible for capitalization and would be expensed as incurred.
Allowance for doubtful accounts
We make estimates with respect to the collectability of our receivables and provide for doubtful accounts based on several factors, including our estimate of collectability and the age of the outstanding balances. Our estimate of collectability is based on our contacts with the debtors, collection agencies, our knowledge of the debtors credit and financial condition, debtors payment terms, and current economic trends. If a debtor becomes insolvent or files for bankruptcy, we provide an allowance for the entire outstanding amount of the debtors receivable. Significant judgments and estimates must be made and used in connection with establishing allowances in any accounting period. Material differences may result in the amount and timing of our allowances for any period if adverse general economic conditions cause widespread financial difficulties among our tenants.
Environmental and legal reserves
We incur ongoing environmental remediation costs, including cleanup costs, consulting fees for environmental studies and investigations, monitoring costs, and legal costs relating to cleanup, litigation defense, and the pursuit of responsible third parties. We maintain a reserve for estimated costs of environmental remediation to be incurred in connection with operating properties and properties previously sold; these reserves, when established, are expensed. Costs relating to undeveloped land are capitalized as part of development costs, and costs incurred for properties to be sold are deferred and charged to cost of sales when the properties are sold; these costs are anticipated to be incurred over a period of twenty years. Our estimates are developed based on reviews that took place over many years based upon then-prevailing law and identified site conditions. Because of the breadth of our portfolio, and past sales, we are unable to review each property extensively on a regular basis. Such estimates are not precise and are always subject to the availability of further information about the prevailing conditions at the site, the future requirements of regulatory agencies, and the availability and ability of
23
other parties to pay some or all of such costs. Should a previously undetected, substantial environmental hazard be found on our properties, significant liquidity could be consumed by the resulting cleanup requirements, and a material expense may be recorded.
We are a party to a number of legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. We cannot predict with certainty the final outcome of the proceedings. Where appropriate, we have established reserves for potential liabilities related to legal actions or threatened legal actions. Environmental and legal reserves are established based on estimates and probabilities of the occurrence of events and therefore are subject to revision from time to time. Should the circumstances affecting these estimates change significantly, a material expense would be recognized.
Income taxes
As part of the process of preparing our consolidated financial statements, significant management judgment is required to estimate our income taxes. Our estimates are based on interpretation of tax laws. We estimate our actual current tax due and assess temporary differences resulting from differing treatment of items for book and tax purposes. The temporary differences result in deferred tax assets and liabilities, which are included within our consolidated balance sheet. Where we have taken a deduction for a non-routine transaction in which the tax impact is uncertain, no financial statement benefit is taken until the impact is certain. Adjustments may be required by a change in assessment of our deferred tax assets and liabilities, changes due to audit adjustments by Federal and State tax authorities, our inability to qualify as a REIT, the potential for built-in-gain recognition, changes in the assessment of properties to be contributed to Taxable REIT Subsidiaries (TRS), and changes in tax laws. Adjustments required in any given period are included within the tax provision in the statement of operations and/or balance sheet. Any applicable interest charges associated with an audit settlement would be recorded as interest expense. These adjustments could materially impact our statement of operations and liquidity.
Business Segment Descriptions:
Our reportable segments are based on our method of internal reporting, which disaggregates our business between long-term operations and those which we intend to transition out of over the next several years and before the adjustments for discontinued operations. We have two reportable segments: Core segment and Urban, Residential and Other segment (URO). Core Segment includes (1) the management and leasing of our rental portfolio, (2) commercial development activities, which focuses on acquiring and developing suburban commercial business parks for our own rental portfolio and selling land and/or buildings that we have developed to users and other parties; and (3) select land development opportunities where we can utilize our land development skills with minimal capital investment. URO includes the remaining residential projects, urban development activities and desert land sales, and assets we intend to transition out of over time and REIT transition costs.
Funds From Operations
In conjunction with the REIT conversion, we will provide Funds From Operations (FFO) as a supplemental measure of performance calculated in accordance with the definition adopted by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (NAREIT). FFO, as defined by NAREIT, represents net income (loss) (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains (or losses) from debt restructuring, sales or write-down of certain assets, cumulative effect of changes in accounting principles, plus depreciation and amortization (excluding depreciation on personal property) and after adjustments for unconsolidated entities. Adjustments for unconsolidated entities are calculated on the same basis. Our management generally believes that FFO, as defined by NAREIT, is a meaningful supplemental measure of operating performance because historical cost accounting for real estate assets in accordance with GAAP implicitly assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values instead have historically risen or fallen with market
24
conditions, many industry investors and analysts have considered presentation of operating results for real estate companies that use historical cost accounting to be insufficient by themselves. Thus, NAREIT created FFO as a supplemental measure of REIT operating performance that excludes historical cost depreciation, among other items, from GAAP net income. The use of FFO, combined with the required primary GAAP presentations, has been fundamentally beneficial, improving the understanding of operating results of REITs among the investing public and making comparisons of REIT operating results more meaningful. We generally consider FFO to be a useful measure for reviewing our comparative operating and financial performance (although FFO should be reviewed in conjunction with net income which remains the primary measure of performance) because by excluding gains or losses related to sales of previously depreciated operating real estate assets and excluding real estate asset depreciation and amortization, FFO can help one compare the operating performance of a companys real estate between periods or as compared to different companies. FFO does include gains on sales of land and build-to-suit development projects. In presenting our FFO prior to operating as a REIT (which was effective January 1, 2004), we included hypothetical tax savings that would have occurred had we been a REIT during the periods presented. We believe that presenting FFO as adjusted for hypothetical tax savings provides investors and analysts with a useful comparison of the hypothetical tax impacts of a REIT structure.
While FFO is a relevant and widely used measure of operating performance of equity REITs, other equity REITs may use different methodologies for calculating FFO or interpret the NAREIT definition differently and, accordingly, FFO as disclosed by other REITs may not be comparable to FFO as used by us. FFO is not a measure of operating results or cash flows from operating activities as defined by generally accepted accounting principles. Further, FFO is not necessarily indicative of cash available to fund cash needs and should not be considered as an alternative to cash flows from operations as a measure of liquidity. We believe that FFO provides relevant information about our operations and is useful, along with net income, for an understanding of our operating activities.

Rental Revenue less Property Operating Costs
Rental revenue less property operating costs has increased since 2001 primarily because of building additions, partially offset by properties sold. We added a net 1.2 million square feet in 2003, 6.1 million square feet in 2002, and 2.1 million square feet in 2001 to our rental portfolio. Rental revenue less property operating costs for 2003, 2002, and 2001, are summarized as follows:

Core segment property sales are generated from the following sources: 1) purchase options exercised by existing tenants for rental properties; 2) sale of older rental properties to improve the overall quality of our rental portfolio, and 3) select land parcels within our development projects.
URO segment sales include all remaining residential and urban projects, and desert land sales.
Sales revenue less cost of sales decreased $23.9 million and $27.0 million in our Core segment in 2003 and 2002, respectively. The decreases in our Core segment in 2003 and 2002 were because of lower rental building and build-to-suit gains of $11.5 million and $13.7 million; lower land sale gains of $5.4 million and $4.3 million; and lower ground lease and other gains of $7.0 million and $9.0 million, respectively. The 2003 cost of sales in our Core segment included $6.7 million of impairment charges to certain developable land projects.
Sales revenue less cost of sales increased $46.5 million and $3.1 million in our URO segment in 2003 and 2002, respectively. The increases in our URO segment in 2003 and 2002 were due to higher land and lots gains of $43.7 million and $3.2 million, respectively.
In our Core segment, during 2003, we sold four operating properties totaling 797,000 square feet of building space, two build-to-suit buildings totaling 1.1 million square feet, closed on the sale of improved land capable of supporting 1.2 million square feet of commercial development, and sold 51.9 acres of ground leases. In addition, $2.2 million of deferred profits were recognized in 2003. During 2002, we sold six operating properties totaling 769,000 square feet of building space, closed on the sale of improved land capable of supporting 3.8 million square feet of commercial development, and closed on the sale of 3.1 acres of ground leases.
In our URO segment, during 2003, we sold 26 condominiums and 1.0 acres of land capable of supporting development of 105 condominium units from the Mission Bay project, 2.7 acres of land capable of supporting development of 710 condominium units from the Santa Fe Depot project, closed on the sale of 3,081 residential lots and sold 3,833 acres of ground leases. In addition, we redeemed our investment interests in the Talega joint venture in 2003. During 2002, we sold 1.6 acres of land capable of supporting development of 275 condominiums from the Santa Fe Depot project, closed on the sales of 456 residential lots and sold 1,035.6 acres of ground leases. In addition, in 2002, the gains from our URO segment also included $2.1 million of our portion of profit participation related to certain properties that were sold in the prior year (see Variability in Results
31
section). We plan to transition out of the residential and historic urban development activities, and desert land over time.
Management, Development and Other Fees
Management, development and other fees primarily consist of fees earned related to development and construction management services provided to third parties as well as our joint venture projects, a loan guarantee fee. Management, development and other fees in our Core segment increased $2.7 million in 2003 primarily because of the recognition of certain deferred construction management fees related to a construction management contract with a ground lease lessee. Management, development and other fees in our Core segment decreased $0.8 million in 2002 primarily because of a decrease in development and management fees related to a construction management contract with a ground lease lessee of $3.0 million due to decrease in construction activities, partially offset by new fees included in 2002 from management fees related to two build-to-suit construction management contracts for $1.4 million and from construction management fees related to investments in three unconsolidated joint ventures in Colorado of $1.0 million.
Management, development and other fees in our URO segment increased $1.3 million and $1.9 million in 2003 and 2002, respectively, primarily because of new loan guarantee fees in 2003 and higher development management activities related to a joint venture development at the Mission Bay project in 2003 and 2002.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $6.0 million and $6.1 million in our Core and URO segments in 2003, respectively, primarily because of one-time severance costs and early vesting charges related to a reduction of staff. Included in selling, general and administration expenses is $12.2 million related to severance, early vesting charges, and charges related to the exchange of options into restricted stock in conjunction with the REIT conversion. Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased $1.4 million and $0.7 million in our Core and URO segments in 2002, respectively, primarily due to decreased employee related expenses.
Depreciation and Amortization Expense
The increases in depreciation and amortization expense of $7.7 million and $11.1 million in our Core segment in 2003 and 2002, respectively, were primarily attributable to the new buildings added to the portfolio. In 2003 and 2002, we added 1.2 million net square feet and 6.1 million net square feet of building space, respectively, to our portfolio. Depreciation and amortization expense decreased $0.7 million in our URO segment in 2003, while the same expense in 2002 was relatively flat.
Other Income
Equity in Earnings of Operating Joint Ventures
Equity in earnings of operating joint ventures, net, decreased by $1.4 million and $0.6 million in 2003, and 2002, respectively. The decreases in 2003 and 2002 were primarily because of lower occupancies in hotels owned by two joint ventures and higher interest expense due to a refinancing at a joint venture.
Equity in Earnings of Development Joint Ventures, Net
Our equity in earnings of development joint ventures, net is primarily generated in our URO segment. The tables below summarize our share of the activities of joint ventures for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2002 and 2001. The 2003 increase in our gain from sales was primarily because of higher sales margins from the Talega joint venture, partially offset by lower sales volumes from Parkway, Serrano, and Talega Village. The
32
increase in our gain on sales in 2002, compared to 2001, was primarily because of increase in sales volume, partially offset by the sale of our investment interest in the Brookfield joint venture during 2001 (see Variability in Results section). Although our preference is generally to own property directly, we may participate with other entities in property ownership through joint ventures or other types of co-ownership.

Gain on Non-Strategic Asset Sales
Gain on sales of non-strategic assets increased $15.7 million and $3.4 million in 2003 and 2002, respectively. The increases were primarily because of higher sales of remaining desert property; however, because the non-strategic asset inventory is depleting, we expect future gain on non-strategic asset sales to occur in several transactions over the next few years (see Variability in Results section).
Interest Income
Interest income decreased $0.5 million and $17.7 million in our Core segment in 2003 and 2002, respectively, because of lower interest from short-term investments as average cash balances and average interest rates were lower in 2003 and 2002. Interest income decreased $2.0 million in our URO segment in 2003 because certain seller notes were paid off in 2003. Interest income increased $3.9 million in our URO segment in 2002 because of higher average notes receivable balance.
Other
Other income consists primarily of lease termination fees and other miscellaneous income. Other income in our Core segment decreased $5.9 million in 2003 because of lower lease termination fees than in 2002. The increase of $6.9 million in 2002 was because of lease termination fees of $8.3 million, partially offset by $1.3 million of gain from a condemnation sale in 2001. Other income in our URO segment increased $0.4 million in 2003 but decreased $3.4 million in 2002. The decrease in 2002 in our URO segment was primarily because of lease termination fee of $3.4 million received in 2001.

Interest expensed increased $1.4 million and $2.6 million in 2003 and 2002, respectively, primarily because of higher average debt balance as a result of additional debt placed on the newly completed operating rental properties, and lower capitalized interest resulted from lower development activities.
Real Estate Investment Trust (REIT) transition costs
On March 3, 2003, we announced that our Board of Directors had authorized us to restructure our business operations in order to qualify as a REIT, effective January 1, 2004. We have incurred conversion and related restructuring costs payable to third parties. REIT transition costs are in our URO segment because of its non-recurring nature. We had incurred REIT transition costs of $7.3 million in 2003. We expect to incur approximately $1.0 million additional cost during 2004, totaling approximately $8.3 million of REIT transaction costs through 2004, primarily for consulting, legal, and tax services.
Other
Other expenses consist primarily of expenses related to previously capitalized costs and other miscellaneous expenses. Other expenses in our Core segment increased $0.8 million in 2003 but decreased $3.0 million in 2002. The increase in our Core segment in 2003 was primarily because of an increase in equipment reserve in 2003. The 2002 decrease in our Core segment was primarily because in 2001 we expensed certain predevelopment costs previously capitalized. Other expenses in our URO segment decreased $0.3 million and $12.5 million in 2003 and 2002, respectively. The 2002 decrease was primarily because of consulting fees of $5.8 million, a $5.1 million of cost overruns on a fixed-price construction contract incurred in 2001, and a reduction in legal reserve of $1.0 million.
Minority Interests
In 1999, we formed a subsidiary for financing purposes and sold 10% of this subsidiarys stock to minority investors. This subsidiary was consolidated for financial reporting purposes. In January 2003, the subsidiary acquired the 10% interest of the minority investors and, accordingly, became a wholly-owned subsidiary.
Income taxes
In December 2003, we restructured our business operations to enable us to qualify as a REIT effective January 1, 2004. In general, a corporation that elects REIT status and distributes at least 90% of its taxable income to its shareholders and complies with certain other requirements (relating primarily to the nature of its assets and the sources of its revenues) is not subject to Federal income taxation to the extent it distributes its
34
taxable income. We believe that we will operate so as to qualify as a REIT beginning January 1, 2004, including paying at least 90% of our REIT taxable income to shareholders in 2004 and subsequent years. Based on these considerations, we believe that we will not be liable for taxes (except with respect to the items discussed below) and have reversed approximately $118.9 million of previously established net tax liabilities due to temporary differences between book and tax amounts in the fourth quarter of 2003.
As part of restructuring our operations to enable us to qualify as a REIT, we have created subsidiaries (subject to certain size limitations) that qualify as TRS and will be subject to Federal and State income taxes. Accordingly, we will still be liable for federal and state taxes with respect to income earned in the TRS. As a result of this future tax liability, certain assets of the TRS carry temporary differences between book and tax amounts that will continue to be reflected as net deferred tax liabilities at the TRS and in the consolidated balance sheet. In addition, our 1999 and later Federal and State tax returns are still open with certain returns currently under audit, which may result in additional taxes with respect to these prior years. Also, at December 31, 2003, a majority of our assets outside of the TRS have values in excess of tax basis (built-in-gain) of approximately $1.7 billion. Under the REIT rules, we are liable for the tax on this built-in-gain if it is realized in a taxable transaction (as for example by sale of the asset) within ten years. We believe that we will pay taxes on built-in-gains on certain of our assets in the event we cannot effectuate a tax-free exchange. Lastly, we expect that once certain tasks are completed, certain of our assets not currently in the TRS will later be contributed to the TRS and carry temporary differences between book and tax amounts.
The provision for income taxes consists of:

Our tax rate improved from 38.2% in 2002 to (21.2%) in 2003 due primarily to adjustments associated with the REIT conversion as discussed above. Without the reversal due to the REIT conversion in the fourth quarter of 2003 discussed above, the tax rate would have been 40.2%. Our tax rate declined in 2002 over 2001 because of charitable deductions taken, which in the tax return are recorded for tax at fair market value which was in excess of book value. The calculation of taxes due involves the use of many estimates that are not finalized and adjusted until our tax returns are filed, usually in September of the following year. Consequently, actual taxes paid in regard to any given year will differ from the amounts shown above; however, the differences have historically not been material and are not expected to be material in the future.
Variability in Results
Although our rental properties provide relatively stable operating results, our earnings from period to period will be affected by the nature and timing of acquisitions and sales of property. Also, sales of assets are difficult to predict given fluctuating economic conditions and are generally subject to lengthy negotiations and contingencies that need to be resolved before closing. These factors may tend to bunch income in particular periods rather than producing a more even pattern throughout the year or from year to year. In addition, gross margins may vary
35
significantly as the mix of property varies. The cost basis of the properties sold varies because (i) properties have been owned for varying periods of time; (ii) properties are owned in various geographical locations; and (iii) development projects have varying infrastructure costs and build-out periods.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Off-balance sheet arrangements, contractual obligations, and commitments
We have the following off-balance sheet arrangements, contractual obligations, and commitments, which are discussed in various sections of the Consolidated Financial Statements, Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, and elsewhere in Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. These arrangements exist in the following areas:
| Unconsolidated real estate joint ventures: |
Capital contribution requirements
Debt and debt service guarantees
| Surety bonds, standby letters of credit and commitments |
| Executed contracts for construction and development activity |
Generally any funding of off-balance sheet guarantees would result in the increase of our ownership interest in a project or entity, similar to the treatment of a unilateral additional capital contribution to an investee.
Unconsolidated real estate joint ventures- capital contribution requirements
We have investments in thirteen unconsolidated real estate joint ventures, of which, seven joint ventures are in our Core segment and the other six joint ventures are in our URO segment. Four of the joint ventures are involved in the operation of rental real estate properties and the remaining nine are involved in real estate development for investment or sale. We use the equity method of accounting for twelve of our investments in unconsolidated joint ventures and the cost method of accounting for one unconsolidated joint venture.
We are required to make additional capital contributions beyond an initial commitment of $25 million to one of our unconsolidated joint ventures should additional capital contributions be necessary to fund excess costs. The joint venture requires capital contributions if actual development costs exceed the approved project development budget. The development budget is approximately $252.5 million and will be funded as follows: $165 million from a construction loan, which closed in September 2002, $62.5 million from our partners, and the remaining $25 million from us. As of December 31, 2003, we had contributed $24.6 million of our $25 million commitment, and we do not expect to fund any significant amounts in excess of the $25 million.
We are also required to make additional capital contributions to two other unconsolidated joint ventures should additional capital contributions be necessary to fund excess costs. Based upon the joint venture agreements, we are required to fund up to a maximum contribution of $52 million, of which we have cumulatively contributed $44.9 million. As of December 31, 2003, we do not expect to fund any additional capital contributions beyond our maximum capital requirements.
We agreed with another unconsolidated joint venture to make additional contributions should there be insufficient funds to meet its current or projected financial requirements. As of December 31, 2003, we have cumulatively contributed $49.4 million to this unconsolidated joint venture, and we do not expect to fund any additional contributions beyond this amount.
Additional contributions made to our development joint ventures would be reflected as investment in development joint ventures (see Note 6 of the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements).
36
Unconsolidated real estate joint ventures- debt and debt service guarantees
We have made certain debt service guarantees for two of our unconsolidated URO segment development joint ventures. At December 31, 2003, based on the joint ventures outstanding debt balance, these debt service guarantees totaled $61.9 million. These debt service guarantees are typical business arrangements commonly required in real estate development. Examples of events that would require us to provide a cash payment pursuant to a guarantee include a loan default, which would result from failure of the primary borrower to service the debt when due, or non-compliance of the primary borrower with financial covenants and inadequacy of asset collateral. Our guarantee exposure is generally limited to situations in which the value of the collateral is not sufficient to satisfy the outstanding indebtedness. At December 31, 2003, we have not been required to satisfy any amounts pursuant to these debt and debt service guarantees.
Surety bonds, standby letters of credit and commitments
As of December 31, 2003, we have $281.8 million in surety bonds, outstanding standby letters of credit in favor of local municipalities or financial institutions, commitments to guarantee leases, and the construction of real property improvements or financial obligations. Surety bonds are commonly required by public agencies in real estate development. Surety bonds and commitments are to guarantee the construction of public improvements and infrastructure such as sewer, streets, traffic signals, grading, and wildlife preservations, in connection with our various development projects. The surety bonds and standby letters of credit are renewable and expire upon completion of the required improvements. Standby letters of credit are a form of credit enhancement commonly required in real estate development when bonds are issued to finance public improvements.
Executed contracts for construction and development activity
At December 31, 2003, we have open construction and development contracts with vendors totaling $155.8 million related to our various projects, as compared to $224.6 million at December 31, 2002.

Cash flows from operating activities
Cash provided by operating activities reflected in the statement of cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2002, and 2001, was $207.9 million, $187.1 million, and $341.8 million, respectively.
The increase of $20.8 million from 2002 to 2003 was primarily attributable to the following: (1) an increase of $71.2 million due to the sale of our interest in an unconsolidated joint venture in 2003, which resulted in a change in our operating assets; (2) a net increase of $12.1 million, resulted from lower payments made for construction costs in 2003; (3) an increase of $18.5 million due to lower prepayment of various expenses in 2003; and (4) an increase of $4.6 million due to higher reimbursements for reimbursable construction costs in 2003 partially offset by (5) a decrease of $31.2 million in distributions from our residential joint ventures due to lower sales activity in 2003; (6) a decrease of $39.6 million from higher income tax paid due to higher estimated taxable income for the year ended December 31, 2003; and (7) a decrease of $23.6 million due to higher payments received from our notes receivable in 2002.
The decrease of $154.7 million in 2002 was primarily attributable to the following: (1) a decrease due to the receipt of a $104.8 million prepayment of rent associated with a 34-year ground lease in 2001; (2) a decrease of $37.2 million resulting from payments made in 2002 for construction costs; (3) $26.4 million due to an increase in prepayments for various expenses; (4) a decrease of $24.3 million due to higher income taxes paid in 2002 and (5) a decrease of $22.5 million in cash received from sales proceeds, partially offset by (6) an increase of $42.4 million from operating distributions, primarily from four of our unconsolidated joint ventures due to more lots sold; (7) $37 million due to an increase in payments received for our notes receivable; and (8) $25.4 million due to lower capital expenditures on our development property. The remaining decrease of $44.3 million was primarily due to the timing of receipts and payments from our ordinary course of business (accounts receivable, accounts payable, etc.).
Cash flows from investing activities
Net cash used in investing activities reflected in the statement of cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2002, and 2001, was $250.5 million, $333.3 million, and $267.6 million, respectively.
The decrease in use of $82.8 million in 2003 was attributed to the following: (1) $81 million due to lower capital expenditures for investment properties in 2003; (2) $43.8 million due to lower reimbursable predevelopment and infrastructure costs incurred in 2003 at Mission Bay and Pacific Commons; (3) $10.8
38
million due to lower capital contributions made to our unconsolidated joint ventures in 2003; (4) $8.6 million due to higher distributions from an unconsolidated joint venture; (5) $7.8 million due to higher proceeds from the sale of investment properties; (6) $1.2 million due to lower costs incurred for tenant improvements; and (7) $1 million due to lower investment in short-term investments and restricted cash partially offset by (8) $71.4 million due to higher property acquisitions primarily for the acquisition of a 10% minority interest of a consolidated subsidiary in January 2003.
The increase in use of $65.7 million in 2002 was attributed to the following: (1) $66.9 million in increased short-term investments and restricted cash at December 31, 2002; (2) $38.3 million due to higher reimbursable predevelopment and infrastructure costs incurred in 2002; (3) $20.7 million due to lower proceeds from the sale of investment properties; (4) $15.3 million due to higher capital contributions made to our unconsolidated joint ventures in 2002 and (5) $7 million due to higher costs incurred for tenant improvements partially offset by (6) $55.3 million due to lower property acquisitions and (7) $27.2 million due to lower capital expenditures for investment properties in 2002.

Capital expenditures for development propertiesThis item relates to the development of our for-sale development properties. The increase in 2003 is primarily because of the new construction that we started in Fremont, California during 2003 and construction in Fontana, California and Portland, Oregon in late 2002 for properties that we intend to build and sell. The decrease in 2002 as compared to 2001 was primarily because of the completion of construction in Ontario, California; Romeoville, Illinois; Plano, Texas; and Tucson, Arizona from properties that we intend to build and sell.
Capital expenditures for investment propertiesThis item relates primarily to development of new properties held for lease. This development activity is summarized below (in square feet):

PredevelopmentPredevelopment costs from our operating and investing activities relate to amounts incurred for our development projects, primarily the Mission Bay project in San Francisco, California; the Alameda project in Alameda, California; the Santa Fe Depot project in San Diego, California; the Robert Mueller Airport project in Austin, Texas; the Vista Range project in Commerce City, Colorado; the West Bluffs project in Playa Del Rey, California; and various other projects under predevelopment stage. Predevelopment costs were higher during the year ended December 31, 2002 as compared to the years ended 2003 and 2001 because of higher predevelopment activities in our development projects at Mission Bay in San Francisco, California; Commerce City, Colorado; and Playa Del Rey, California.
Infrastructure and otherInfrastructure and other costs from our operating and investing activities primarily relate to the projects at Mission Bay, San Francisco, California; Hercules, California; Fontana, California; Fremont, California; West Bluffs, California; Santa Fe Depot, San Diego, California; Alameda, California; Westminster, Colorado; and Stapleton, Colorado. The decreases in 2003 and 2002 were attributable to a majority of the existing projects going into construction stage.
Operating property acquisitionsFor the year ended December 31, 2003, we did not invest in any operating properties. For the year ended December 31, 2002, we invested approximately $7.1 million for the acquisition of land capable of supporting an estimated 2,149 residential units and $0.7 million for acquisition of land to be sold. For the year ended December 31, 2001, we invested approximately $3.8 million for the
40
acquisition of commercial land with the intent to sell and $23 million, including a $10 million seller-financed note, for the acquisition of an ownership interest in a joint venture in Folsom, California.
Investing property acquisitionsFor the year ended December 31, 2003, we invested approximately $96.4 million in investment property acquisitions: $35.2 million for the acquisition of commercial land, which added 10.5 million square feet of potential development; $60.7 million for the acquisition of a 10% minority interest in a consolidated subsidiary; and $0.5 million for the acquisition of furniture, fixtures, and equipment.
For the year ended December 31, 2002, we invested approximately $34.1 million in investing property acquisitions: $16.4 million for the acquisition of commercial buildings, which added approximately 488,000 square feet to our rental portfolio; $8 million for the acquisition of commercial land, which added 3 million square feet of potential development; and $9.7 million for the acquisition of furniture, fixtures, and equipment, primarily consisting of a corporate aircraft.
For the year ended December 31, 2001, we invested approximately $81.6 million in property and other acquisitions: $66.6 million for the acquisition of commercial buildings, which added approximately 1.2 million square feet to our rental portfolio; $13.2 million for the acquisition of commercial land, which added about 4.2 million square feet of potential development; and $1.7 million for the acquisition of furniture, fixtures, and equipment.
Cash flows from financing activities
Net cash (used in) provided by financing activities reflected in the statement of cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2002, and 2001, was ($186.3) million, $198.4 million, and ($188.1) million, respectively.
The decrease of $384.7 million in net cash provided in 2003 was attributed to the following: (1) a decrease of $306.7 million due to higher net borrowings in 2002 to finance our building portfolio and (2) a decrease of $127.9 million due to the E&P and dividend distribution as a result of our REIT conversion partially offset by (3) an increase of $49.9 million in proceeds from the issuance of common stock attributable to the exercise of stock options.
The increase of $386.5 million in 2002 was attributed to the following: (1) an increase of $372.4 million due to no treasury stock purchases in 2002, as compared to $372.4 million expended for the purchase of 21,649,797 shares of our treasury stock under the share repurchase program during the same period in 2001; (2) an increase of $24.4 million primarily attributable to higher net borrowings; and (3) an increase of $0.6 million due to a decrease in distributions to minority partners offset by (4) a decrease of $10.9 million due to lower proceeds from the issuance of common stock primarily attributable to exercise of stock options.
Reimbursable predevelopment and infrastructure costs
For the years ended December 31, 2003, 2002, and 2001, approximately $61.9 million, $97 million, and $35.6 million, respectively, of total predevelopment and infrastructure costs incurred are reimbursable, pursuant to various Community Facility District (CFD) bonds issued in 2002 and 2001, various assessment district bonds, and third parties.
In 2003, approximately $49.3 million was reimbursed, of which approximately $41.2 million was from CFD bonds and approximately $8.1 million was from third parties. During 2002, approximately $44.7 million was reimbursed, of which $42.8 million was from CFD bonds and $1.9 million was from third parties. During 2001, approximately $17.4 million was reimbursed, of which $13.3 million was from CFD bonds and $4.1 million was from third parties.

REIT-related Distribution and Quarterly Dividends
On October 8, 2003, our Board of Directors declared a regular cash dividend for the quarter ended September 30, 2003, of $0.30 per share of common stock, or $27.6 million that was paid on November 25, 2003, to stockholders of record at the close of business on November 4, 2003.
On December 3, 2003, our Board declared a regular cash dividend for the quarter ending December 31, 2003, of $0.27 per share of common stock, or $27.7 million that was paid on January 15, 2004, to stockholders of record at the close of business on December 29, 2003.
On December 8, 2003, we announced results of the stockholders elections regarding the special earnings and profits (E&P) dividend, a one-time distribution of our accumulated E&P that is part of our conversion to a real estate investment trust scheduled for January 1, 2004. The E&P per share distribution, declared by the Board and announced in October, at $3.83 per share, was paid on December 18, 2003, to stockholders of record at the close of business November 4, 2003. Through December 1, stockholders had the opportunity to elect how they preferred to receive their dividendall stock, all cash, or a combination of 20 percent cash and 80 percent stock. As a result of the elections, the total stock portion of the E&P distribution was 10.66 million shares. The number of shares of stock distributed was calculated based on the average closing price of our stock from December 2, 2003, through December 8, 2003, which was $23.612. The total cash portion of the E&P distribution was $100.3 million.
On February 11, 2004, our Board declared a regular cash dividend for the quarter ending March 31, 2004, of $0.27 per share of common stock payable on April 15, 2004, to stockholders of record at the close of business on March 29, 2004.
Cash balances, available borrowings, and capital resources
As of December 31, 2003, we had total cash of $110.5 million, of which $64.6 million is restricted cash. In addition to the $110.5 million cash balance, we had $146.5 million in borrowing capacity under our revolving credit and commercial construction facilities, available upon satisfaction of certain conditions.
Our short-term and long-term liquidity and capital resources requirements will be provided primarily from five sources: (1) cash on hand, (2) ongoing income from our rental portfolio, (3) proceeds from sales of developed properties, land and non-strategic assets, (4) a revolving line of credit with a total capacity of $200 million, and (5) additional debt. As noted above, our existing revolver and construction loan facilities are available for meeting certain short-term liquidity requirements. Our ability to meet our mid- and long-term capital requirements is, in part, dependent upon the ability to obtain additional financing for new construction, completed buildings, acquisitions, and currently unencumbered properties. There is no assurance that we can obtain this financing or obtain this financing on favorable terms.
Debt covenantsOur new $200 million revolving credit agreement and three other credit agreements, totaling $115 million, have corporate financial covenants including a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.30 to 1, a maximum leverage ratio of 0.65 to 1, a maximum secured indebtedness ratio of 0.50 to 1, and a minimum tangible net worth of $482.4 million, all terms as defined in those agreements. As of or for the period ending December 31, 2003 the actual results were 1.79 to 1; 0.59 to 1; 0.41 to 1; and $709.7 million, respectively. Outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit facility are subject to a borrowing base consisting of various categories of assets. At December 31, 2003, we had unused availability of $142.3 million under the line. Our 50% guarantee of one of our joint ventures construction loans of $165 million contains corporate financial covenants including a minimum debt service coverage ratio of 1.60 to 1, a maximum leverage ratio of 65%, and a minimum tangible net worth of $482.4 million (subject to adjustment for stock buybacks), with different definitions than the other agreements. As of or for the period ending December 31, 2003, the actual results, were 2.03 to 1; 56.4%; and $709.7 million, respectively. Our performance against these covenants is
42
measured on a quarterly basis, with fixed charge and debt service coverage ratios being measured on a four-quarter trailing basis. In the event we were to breach any of these covenants and were unable to negotiate satisfactory waivers or amendments, our lenders in these credit facilities could declare amounts outstanding due and payable.
Bonds
Assessment District BondsThese bonds were issued through local municipalities to fund the construction of public infrastructure and improvements, which benefit our properties. Debt service on these bonds is collateralized by tax revenues, properties, or by letters of credit (see Note 15 of the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements). These bonds are recorded and presented as part of Mortgage and other debt in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheet at December 31, 2003 (see Note 3 of the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements). Certain infrastructure costs incurred are reimbursable from these bonds. As of December 31, 2003, we have essentially been reimbursed of all the infrastructure costs incurred thus far.

Community Facility District BondsThese bonds were issued to finance public infrastructure improvements at Mission Bay in San Francisco and Pacific Commons in Fremont, California and were not required to be recorded in our accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheet. These bonds have a series of maturities up to thirty years. For the bonds issued at Mission Bay, we provided letters of credit totaling $40 million in support of the floating rate bonds. Upon completion of the infrastructure improvements at Mission Bay and Pacific Commons, for which $133.3 million and $30 million bonds were issued, respectively, the improvements will be transferred to the respective cities. Of the total cumulative reimbursable cost incurred, approximately $87.2 million has been reimbursed as of December 31, 2003, with $26.8 million received during the twelve months ended December 31, 2003. The remaining balance of $113.7 million is presented in Other Assets in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheet at December 31, 2003. Of the $113.7 million, $8.2 million has been applied for reimbursements and $105.5 million will be applied for reimbursements when the facility components are completed, inspected, and approved by the respective cities. Additional bonds are expected to be issued.
At Mission Bay, the landowners must satisfy any shortfall in annual debt service obligations for the CFD bonds, if incremental tax revenues generated by the projects are insufficient. At Pacific Commons, developed and designated developed property is taxed first, and any shortfall in annual debt service is paid by a tax on project vacant land.

Tax Audit
In 2002, the State of California Franchise Tax Board (FTB) began auditing two of our joint ventures and, in 2003, began auditing Catellus tax returns for the years 1999 and 2000. The audits are in process, and no audit adjustments have been formally proposed. However, the FTB has informally advised us that a proposed adjustment with respect to one of our joint ventures will be forthcoming.
The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) is currently auditing the 1999 income tax returns of Catellus, an affiliated partnership, and a mortgage REIT subsidiary of Catellus. In September of 2003, we received notice from the IRS that they will also audit the 2000 income tax return of Catellus. The audits are in process and no audit adjustments have yet been proposed.
At this time, we do not know whether any audit will ultimately result in adjustments to the income tax returns that would require us to pay additional taxes, interest and/or penalties. If required, any such adjustments could adversely impact our liquidity, statement of operations and/or balance sheet.
Related party transactions
The entities below are considered related parties because the listed transactions are with entities in which we have an ownership interest. There are no affiliated persons involved with these entities.
In 2001, we entered into a 99-year ground lease with one of our unconsolidated joint ventures, Third and King Investors, LLC, and we received and recognized $5 million, $3.7 million, and $1.8 million in rental income from this ground lease for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2002, and 2001, respectively. At December 31, 2003, we had $1.3 million of deferred rent payments previously received, which will be recognized together with annual rents over the life of the lease. We have also agreed with the venture to fund, on a pro-rata basis, the balance of equity capital required and certain excess costs, if actual development costs exceed the approved development budget as set forth in the joint venture agreement. As of December 31, 2003, we had contributed $24.6 million of the $25 million to be funded from us, and we do not expect to fund any significant amount in excess of the $25 million.
We also provide development and management services and loan guarantees to several of our unconsolidated joint venture investments. Fees earned were $7 million for the year ended December 31, 2003, of which $4.9 million was from Third and King Investors, LLC, $1.7 million was from Traer Creek, LLC, and the remainder $0.4 million was from Serrano Associates, LLC, Talega Village, LLC, and Bergstrom Business Partners, LP. Fees earned were $4.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2002, of which $2.6 million was from Third and King Investors, LLC, $1 million was from Traer Creek, LLC, and the remainder $0.6 million was Talega Village, LLC, and Serrano Associates, LLC. Fees earned were $1.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2001, of which $0.7 million was from Third and King Investors, LLC, with the remainder $0.5 million from Talega Village, LLC, and Serrano Associates, LLC. The increase in 2003 and 2002, was primarily due to management service fees from Traer Creek and development fees from Third and King Investors, LLC. At December 31, 2003, we have deferred fees from Serrano Associates, LLC of $0.5 million that will be earned as completed projects are sold or the venture is sold or liquidated. In September 2003, we sold our investment
44
interest in Traer Creek, LLC for a gain of $5.4 million, which was deferred at December 31, 2003, because we did not receive sufficient cash at the date of the transaction. Subsequently in January 2004, we recognized the gain upon the receipt of the full payment.
We have a $4.7 million note receivable from an unconsolidated joint venture, East Baybridge Partners, LP, for project costs plus accrued interest at 9.0%. This note is collateralized by property owned by the venture and matures in October 2028. We also have entered into various lease agreements with this unconsolidated joint venture. As lessee, we incurred rent expense of $0.1 million in each of the years ended December 31, 2003, 2002, and 2001; this lease will expire in November 2011. As lessor, we also entered into a ground lease, which will expire in August 2054, with this unconsolidated joint venture. We recognized rental income of $0.2 million for each of the years ended December 31, 2003, 2002, and 2001. As of December 31, 2003, we recorded a $2.2 million receivable and a $0.7 million reserve associated with this lease. The ventures current projection reflects approximately $0.5 million available funds, per year, from its operations to pay down our receivables.
In January 2004, we sold our 45% investment interest in Colorado International Center, an unconsolidated joint venture, for its capital investment balance of $0.3 million to an entity whose principal was our former employee.
New accounting standards
In December 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 46-R, Consolidation of Variable Interest Entitiesan interpretation of ARB No. 51 (FIN 46-R). FIN 46-R requires that any entity meeting certain rules relating to a companys equity investment at risk and level of financial control be consolidated as a variable interest entity. The statement is applicable to all variable interest entities created or acquired after January 31, 2003, and the first interim period beginning after December 15, 2003, for variable interest entities in which we hold a variable interest that was acquired before February 1, 2003. We have and will adopt FIN 46-R in the time frames as required by the statement. There is no significant effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows as a result of the initial adoption of this standard in regard to existing variable interest entities; however, future newly formed entities could meet these requirements and will be recorded as appropriate. At December 31, 2003, we did not own any equity investment created or acquired after January 31, 2003, that qualified as a variable interest equity.
In May 2003, the FASB issued Statement of Accounting Standards No. 150, Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity. SFAS 150 establishes standards for the clarification and measurement of certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. However, in November 2003, the provisions as related to mandatorily redeemable non-controlling interests in finite lived entities have been deferred indefinitely. The other provisions of this statement are effective for financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003, and otherwise were effective at the beginning of the first interim period beginning after June 15, 2003. Adoption of this standard had no effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.
Environmental Matters
Many of our properties and our subsidiaries properties are in urban and industrial areas and may have been leased to or previously owned by commercial and industrial companies that discharged hazardous materials. We and our subsidiaries incur ongoing environmental remediation and disposal costs and legal costs relating to clean up, defense of litigation, and the pursuit of responsible third parties. Costs incurred by the consolidated group in connection with operating properties and with properties previously sold are expensed. Costs incurred for properties to be sold by us or our subsidiaries are capitalized and will be charged to cost of sales when the properties are sold (see Note 15 of the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion).
In recent years, certain of our subsidiaries have acquired properties with known environmental problems for cleanup and redevelopment, and we expect that we may continue to form subsidiaries to acquire such properties
45
(or that existing subsidiaries will acquire such properties) when the potential benefits of development warrant. When our subsidiaries acquire such properties, they undertake due diligence to determine the nature of the environmental problems and the likely cost of remediation, and they manage the risk with undertakings from third parties, including the sellers and their affiliates, remediation contractors, third party sureties, or insurers. The costs associated with environmental remediation are included in the costs estimates for properties to be developed.

Therefore, all forward-looking statements should be evaluated with the understanding of their inherent risk and uncertainty. Except for our ongoing obligation to disclose material information as required by federal securities laws, we do not intend to update you concerning any future revisions to any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances occurring after the date of this report.
Risks Related to Real Estate Investments
We depend on tenants to generate lease revenues.
We are subject to the risk that, upon the expiration of leases for space located in our properties, leases may not be renewed by existing tenants, the space may not be re-leased to new tenants or the terms of renewal or re-
46
leasing (including the cost of required renovations or concessions to tenants) may be less favorable to us than current lease terms. A tenant may experience a down-turn in its business which may cause the loss of the tenant or may weaken its financial condition, and result in the tenants failure to make rental payments when due, result in a reduction in percentage rent receivable with respect to retail tenants or require a restructuring that might reduce cash flow from the lease. In addition, a tenant of any of our properties may seek the protection of bankruptcy, insolvency, or similar laws, which could result in the rejection and termination of such tenants lease and thereby cause a reduction in our available cash flow. Although we have not experienced material losses from tenant bankruptcies, no assurance can be given that tenants will not file for bankruptcy or similar protection in the future or, if any tenants file, that they will affirm their leases or continue to make rental payments in a timely manner.
Our real estate development strategies may not be successful.
Any of our existing or future development activities will entail certain risks, including:
| the expenditure of funds on and devotion of managements time to projects which may not come to fruition; |
| the risk that development or redevelopment costs of a project may exceed original estimates, possibly making the project uneconomic; |
| the risk that occupancy rates and rents at a completed project will be less than anticipated or that there will be vacant space at the project; |
| the risk that expenses at a completed development will be higher than anticipated; and |
| the risk that permits and other governmental approvals will not be obtained. Because of the discretionary nature of these approvals and concerns which may be raised by various governmental officials, public interest groups and other interested parties during both the approval and development process, our ability to develop properties and realize income from our projects could be delayed, reduced or eliminated. |
In addition, our real estate development activities require significant capital expenditures. We incur considerable infrastructure costs in connection with our commercial, urban, and residential projects. We will be required to obtain funds for our capital expenditures and operating activities through cash flow from operations, property sales or financings. There can be no assurances that funds available from cash flow, property sales and financings will be sufficient to fund our required or desired capital expenditures for development. If we were unable to obtain sufficient funds, we might have to defer or otherwise limit certain development activities. In addition, any new development or any rehabilitation of older projects can require compliance with new building codes and other regulations.
General economic conditions in the areas in which our properties are geographically concentrated may impact financial results.
We currently conduct the majority of our business in California. Consequently, we are exposed to changes in the real estate market or in general economic conditions in California. Any changes may result in higher vacancy rates for commercial property and lower prevailing rents, lower sales prices or slower sales, lower absorption rates, and more tenant defaults and bankruptcies, which would negatively impact our financial performance.
We have significant holdings in California, Illinois, Texas, Colorado and Arizona. Of our primary rental properties, which are comprised of commercial buildings, approximately 34.9%, by square footage, are located in Southern California, 18.6% in Northern California, 17.9% in Illinois, 10.8% in Texas, 7.2% in Colorado, 3.1% in Arizona, 2.5% in Ohio, with the remaining 5% in four other states. Further, approximately 33% of our total
47
commercial developable land by square footage is located in California: Silicon Valley, San Franciscos East Bay, Los Angeles County, Orange County, and the Inland Empire (San Bernardino and Riverside counties), approximately 25% in Illinois; approximately 15% in Texas; with the remaining 27% in six other states. All of our residential land for potential development (based on number of lots) is located in California, with approximately 96% in Northern California and 4% in Southern California. To the extent that weak economic conditions or other factors affect these regions more severely than other areas of the country, our financial performance could be negatively impacted.
Exposure of our assets to damage from natural occurrences such as earthquakes, and weather conditions that affect the progress of construction may impact financial results.
Natural disasters, such as earthquakes, floods or fires, or unexpected climactic conditions, such as unusually heavy or prolonged rain, particularly in California, where our assets are concentrated, may have an adverse impact on our ability to develop our properties and realize income from our projects.
Illiquidity of real estate and reinvestment risk may reduce economic returns to investors.
Real estate investments are relatively illiquid and, therefore, our ability to vary our portfolio quickly in response to changes in economic or other conditions is limited. Additionally, the Internal Revenue Code places certain limits on the number of properties a REIT may sell without adverse tax consequences. Further, certain significant expenditures, including property taxes, maintenance costs, mortgage payments, insurance costs and related charges must be made throughout the period of ownership of real property regardless of whether the real property is producing any income.
Other Risks Affecting Our Business and Operations
Our use of taxable REIT subsidiaries is limited.
For tax years beginning after December 31, 2000, a REIT is permitted to own one or more taxable REIT subsidiaries. The introduction of taxable REIT subsidiaries broadens the scope of activities in which a REIT and its consolidated subsidiaries can engage without disqualifying the REIT because income from a taxable REIT subsidiary is not treated as impermissible income. Our use of taxable REIT subsidiaries will enable us to engage in the development of land for sale to third parties. However, under the Internal Revenue Code, no more than 20% of the value of the assets of a REIT may be represented by securities of one or more taxable REIT subsidiaries. This limitation may affect our ability to add to our land inventory or to increase the size of our third party development operations.
Our use of taxable REIT subsidiaries may affect the price of Catellus common stock relative to the stock price of other REITs.
Following our election to be taxed as a REIT, we will hold a significant portion of our land assets, and conduct a substantial portion of our development activities, through one or more taxable REIT subsidiaries. Taxable REIT subsidiaries are corporations subject to corporate-level tax. Prior to 2001, the Internal Revenue Code substantially limited a REITs ability to operate through corporate subsidiaries. However, recent changes to the REIT rules allow us to hold the land that we develop for sale to third parties, including urban and residential land, as well as residential and mixed-use development joint ventures, in one or more taxable REIT subsidiaries. This REIT/taxable REIT subsidiary structure may cause the market to value our common stock differently than the stock of other publicly traded REITs, which may not use taxable REIT subsidiaries as extensively as we plan to following our election to be taxed as a REIT.
48
We are dependent on external sources of capital and have substantial amounts of debt.
To qualify as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code, we generally are required each year to distribute to our stockholders at least 90% of our net taxable income determined without regard to net capital gains and the dividends paid deduction. We may be required to borrow funds on a short-term basis or liquidate investments to meet the distribution requirements that are necessary to qualify as a REIT, even if management believes that it is not in our best interests to do so.
We may have to rely on third party sources of capital in order to repay our debt, fund capital expenditures, make acquisitions, and otherwise pursue our strategic objectives. These external sources of capital may or may not be available on favorable terms or at all. Our access to third party sources of capital depends upon a number of factors, including general market conditions, the markets perception of our growth potential and risk characteristics of our underlying business operations, our current and potential future earnings and cash flow and the market price of our securities. Moreover, additional equity offerings may result in the substantial dilution of our stockholders interests and additional debt financing may further leverage us. In the event we are unable to access third party sources of capital on terms favorable to us, we may be delayed in implementing capital improvements or in pursuing our growth strategy which could reduce our revenue or operating income.
As of December 31, 2003, we had approximately $1.4 billion of debt. This amount of debt could have important consequences for our investors and for us, some of which include:
| our ability to obtain additional financing may be impaired, both currently and in the future; |
| a substantial portion of our cash flow from operations must be dedicated to the payment of principal and interest on this indebtedness, thereby reducing the funds available for other purposes; |
| our cash flow may be insufficient to meet required payments of principal, interest or future dividends; |
| we may be substantially more leveraged than our competitors, putting us at a competitive disadvantage; and |
| our flexibility to adjust to market conditions is limited, leaving us vulnerable in a downturn in general economic conditions or in our business. |
Our current indebtedness bears interest at both fixed and floating interest rates. For future financings, we intend to seek the most attractive financing arrangements available at the time, which may involve either fixed or floating interest rates. With respect to floating rate indebtedness, increases in interest rates may adversely affect our cash flow from operations, funds available for distribution, and ability to meet our debt service obligations.
Competition in the real estate industry.
The real estate industry is generally fragmented and characterized by significant competition. Numerous developers, owners of industrial, office and retail properties and managers compete with us in seeking properties for acquisition, development and management opportunities, tenants, and purchasers for homes and for non-strategic assets. There are competitors, such as other REITs, as well as private real estate companies and financial buyers in each area in which we operate, which have greater capital resources than we do. These competitive disadvantages, the number of competitors and the number of competitive commercial properties in a particular area could have a material adverse effect on the rents we can charge, our ability to lease space in our existing properties or at newly acquired or developed properties and the prices we have to pay for developable land. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the existence of such competition will not have a material adverse effect on our business, operations and cash flow.
There is no limitation on debt in our organizational documents.
Our organizational documents do not contain any limitation on the amount or percentage of indebtedness we may incur. Accordingly, we could become more highly leveraged, resulting in an increase in debt service that
49
could adversely affect our ability to make expected distributions to stockholders and in an increased risk of default on our obligations.
We may change our policies in ways that adversely affect our financial condition or results of operations.
Our investment and financing policies and our policies with respect to other activities, including our growth, debt capitalization, distributions, REIT status and operating policies are determined by our board of directors. Our board of directors may change these policies at any time without a vote of our stockholders. A change in these policies might adversely affect our financial condition or results of operations.
We are dependent on key personnel.
We depend on the efforts of our executive officers and other key personnel. While we believe that we could find replacements for these key personnel, the loss of their services could have a significant adverse effect on our operations.
Labor shortages and costs could impact our projects.
Labor shortages and costs could significantly influence the success of projects.
Possible environmental liabilities could adversely affect us.
Under various federal, state and local environmental laws, ordinances and regulations, a current or previous owner or operator of real property may be liable for the costs of removal or remediation of hazardous or toxic substances on, under or in that real property. These laws often impose liability whether or not the owner or operator knew of, or was responsible for, the presence of hazardous or toxic substances. Because we own (or our corporate predecessors owned) properties in urban and industrial areas, and have historically leased many of our properties to commercial and industrial tenants whose activities may have resulted in discharges onto such properties, we incur ongoing environmental remediation costs and are subject from time to time to environmental actions by governmental entities and private parties. While we or outside consultants have evaluated the environmental liabilities associated with most of our properties, any evaluation is necessarily based upon then prevailing law, site conditions and the use of sampling methodologies.
The costs of investigation, removal or remediation of hazardous or toxic substances may be substantial. In addition, the presence of hazardous or toxic substances, or the failure to remedy environmental hazards properly, may adversely affect the owners or operators ability to sell or rent affected real property or to borrow money using affected real property as collateral. Future environmental costs are difficult to estimate because of such factors as the unknown magnitude of possible contamination, the unknown timing and extent of the corrective actions that may be required, the determination of our potential liability in proportion to that of other potentially responsible parties, and the extent to which such costs are recoverable from insurance.
At December 31, 2003, we estimate that future costs for remediation of environmental contamination on operating properties and properties previously sold approximate $2.8 million, and have provided a reserve for that amount. It is anticipated that such costs will be incurred over the next several years. We also estimate approximately $11.1 million of similar costs relating to our properties to be developed or sold. Catellus is currently under investigation by the Department of Toxics and Substance Control of the State of California concerning the Mission Bay Project. The investigation, which is ongoing, focuses on whether individuals and companies hauling soil within and from Mission Bay satisfied certain hazardous waste license/certification hauling requirements. Catellus does not anticipate that this investigation or any proceeding that may result from this investigation will have a material adverse impact on the Mission Bay Project. See Part I, Item 3, Legal Proceedings.

Uninsured losses could adversely affect our financial condition.
We typically purchase commercial general liability, all-risk property and rental loss insurance for our properties and development projects, with limits customarily carried for similar properties. Some types of losses, such as losses from earthquakes, terrorism, environmental hazards or toxic mold may be either uninsurable or too expensive to justify insuring against. In renewing our policies over the last several years, we were able to essentially obtain all of our historical levels and types of insurance (although at a higher cost and, in certain instances, with higher deductibles and/or more restrictive conditions), except: (1) liability coverage for our residential business, which now has a higher deductible and a much lower policy limit and (2) terrorism insurance, which was initially excluded from our property coverage placed on October 1, 2002. However, under the United States Terrorism Risk Insurance Act of 2002, carriers are now required to offer us terrorism coverage and are allowed to charge an incremental premium for such coverage. We have obtained coverage that matches the risk profile for our portfolio of properties, primarily consisting of distribution/warehouse and suburban office and retail that we consider to be relatively low-risk. We have placed a stand-alone terrorism policy for a single asset located near downtown San Francisco and expect that we may place additional, similar stand-alone policies if circumstances warrant. There can be no assurance that significant losses in excess of insurance proceeds will not occur. Also, we and our predecessors have owned some of the properties in our portfolio for many years and acquired properties in a variety of ways, including by railroad land grants. We have not obtained title insurance on all of the properties in our portfolio, and some properties may be subject to limitations on or challenges to our title.
If an uninsured loss or a loss in excess of insured limits occurs, Catellus Operating Limited Partnership could lose its capital invested in the property, as well as the anticipated future revenue from the property, while remaining obligated for any mortgage indebtedness or other financial obligations related to the property. An uninsured loss or loss in excess of insured limits may negatively impact our financial condition. As the general partner of Catellus Operating Limited Partnership, Catellus is generally liable for any of their unsatisfied obligations other than non-recourse obligations.
The costs of compliance with regulatory requirements could adversely affect our business.
Our facilities are subject to various federal, state and local regulatory requirements, such as the Americans with Disabilities Act and state and local fire and life safety requirements. Failure to comply with these requirements could result in the imposition of fines by governmental authorities or awards of damages to private litigants. We believe that our facilities are currently in material compliance with such regulatory requirements. However, there can be no assurance that these requirements will not be changed or that new requirements will not be imposed, a result that could require significant unanticipated expenditures by us and could have an adverse effect on our cash flow.
We face risks due to our investments through partnerships or joint ventures.
Instead of purchasing properties directly, we have and may continue to invest as a co-venturer. Joint venturers often have shared control over the operation of the joint venture assets. Therefore, these investments may, under certain circumstances, involve risks such as the possibility that the co-venturer in an investment might become bankrupt, or have economic or business interests or goals that are inconsistent with our business interests or goals, or be in a position to take action contrary to our instructions or requests or our policies or objectives. Consequently, actions by a co-venturer might result in subjecting properties owned by the joint venture to additional risk. Although we generally will seek to maintain sufficient control of any joint venture to permit our objectives to be achieved, we may be unable to take action without the approval of our joint venture partners or our joint venture partners could take actions binding on the joint venture without our consent. Additionally, should a joint venture partner become bankrupt, we could become liable for that partners share of joint venture liabilities.

The supply and price of electrical power could affect our rental and sales activities.
Shortages in and higher prices for electrical power could negatively affect our ability to rent or sell properties.
An ownership limit and certain anti-takeover defenses could inhibit a change of control of our Company or reduce the value of our stock.
The amended and restated certificate of incorporation of Catellus and its amended and restated Bylaws contain provisions which may have an anti-takeover effect. The following provisions of these governing documents could have the effect of making it more difficult for a third party to acquire control of our Company, including certain acquisitions that stockholders may deem to be in their best interests:
| the amended and restated bylaws do not permit stockholders to call a special meeting of stockholders; |
| the amended and restated certificate of incorporation contains restrictions on the number of shares that may be owned by any stockholder; |
| the amended and restated certificate of incorporation permits the issuance of one or more series of a new class of preferred stock with rights and preferences to be determined by the board of directors; |
| the amended and restated certificate of incorporation restricts certain business combinations with interested stockholders; and |
| the amended and restated bylaws require advance notice of stockholder proposals and director nominations. |
Federal Income Tax Risks Relating to REIT Qualification
If we fail to qualify as a REIT or fail to remain qualified as a REIT, we will have reduced funds available for distribution to our stockholders and our income will be subject to taxation at regular corporate rates.
We began operating as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code commencing January 1, 2004. As a REIT, we generally will not pay corporate level tax on income we currently distribute to our stockholders as long as we distribute currently at least 90% of our REIT taxable income (determined without regard to the dividends paid deduction and by excluding net capital gain). We cannot assure you, however, that we will so qualify or be able to remain so qualified or that new legislation, Treasury Regulations, administrative interpretations or court decisions will not significantly change the tax laws with respect to our qualification as a REIT or the federal income tax consequences of such qualification. Qualification as a REIT involves the application of highly technical and complex Internal Revenue Code provisions for which there are only limited judicial or administrative interpretations. The complexity of these provisions and of the applicable income tax regulations is greater in the case of a REIT such as ours that holds its assets in partnership form. Further, the determination of various factual matters and circumstances not entirely within our control may affect our ability to qualify as a REIT.
If in any taxable year we fail to qualify as a REIT, we will suffer the following negative results:
| we will not be allowed a deduction for distributions to stockholders in computing our taxable income; and |
| we will be subject to federal income tax on our taxable income at regular corporate rates. |
In addition, we will be disqualified from treatment as a REIT for the four taxable years following the year during which the qualification was lost, unless we were entitled to relief under statutory provisions.
52
There are uncertainties relating to the estimate of our earnings and profits attributable to C corporation taxable years.
In order to qualify as a REIT, we cannot have at the end of any REIT taxable year any undistributed earnings and profits that are attributable to a C corporation taxable year. A REIT has until the close of its first full taxable year as a REIT in which it has non-REIT earnings and profits to distribute these accumulated earnings and profits. We will be required to distribute these earnings and profits prior to the end of our first taxable year as a REIT, which we expect will be 2004. Failure to do so would result in our disqualification as a REIT. The determination of such earnings and profits is complicated and depends upon facts with respect to which we may have less than complete information or the application of the law governing earnings and profits which is subject to differing interpretations, or both. We currently believe and intend that the special E&P distribution will exceed the amount required to be distributed in order to satisfy the requirement that we not have accumulated earnings and profits attributable to a C corporation taxable year by an amount to be determined by the Board of Directors. Consequently, we believe that the special E&P distribution will be sufficient to distribute all of our non-REIT earnings and profits by the close of our first taxable year as a REIT. There are, however, substantial uncertainties relating to the estimate of our non-REIT earnings and profits and, thus, we cannot assure you that this requirement will be met. These uncertainties include the possibility that the Internal Revenue Service could upon audit increase the taxable income of Catellus, which would increase the non-REIT earnings and profits of Catellus. In this regard, we received notice from the Internal Revenue Service on March 24, 2003 of its intent to audit the 1999 income tax return of Catellus. The Internal Revenue Service also advised us of its intent to audit the 1999 income tax return of a mortgage REIT subsidiary of Catellus. These audits are now under way. Tax counsel will not provide any opinion as to the amount of Catellus undistributed earnings and profits and will rely, for purposes of its opinion as to our qualification as a REIT, upon a representation from us that we will not have any undistributed non-REIT earnings and profits as of the end of the year for which we first file our REIT election. Thus, we cannot assure you that we will satisfy the requirement that we distribute all of our non-REIT earnings and profits by the close of our first taxable year as a REIT.
There can be no assurance that the Internal Revenue Service will agree with our determination of our non-REIT earnings and profits, and there are uncertainties regarding the amount of such earnings and profits.
Our third-party development business is potentially subject to prohibited transactions tax.
We currently conduct third party land sales as part of our third-party development business. As a REIT, we will be subject to a 100% tax on our net income from prohibited transactions. In general, prohibited transactions are sales or other dispositions of property to customers in the ordinary course of business. Sales by us of property in the course of our third-party development business will generally constitute prohibited transactions.
We intend to avoid the 100% prohibited transactions tax by conducting our third-party land sales through one or more taxable REIT subsidiaries. We may not, however, always be able to identify properties that will become part of our third-party development business at the time we acquire such properties. Additionally, properties we initially acquire and hold for investment purposes may become third-party development properties as circumstances change. Therefore, we face the potential of being subject to the 100% prohibited transactions tax on the sale of properties acquired by us and not through a taxable REIT subsidiary which we incorrectly identify as property not held for sale to customers in the ordinary case of business or which subsequently becomes property held for sale to customers in the ordinary course of business.
There are potential deferred and contingent tax liabilities.
We will be subject to a federal corporate level tax at the highest regular corporate rate (currently 35%) on any gain recognized from a sale of any assets occurring within ten years of the REIT conversion which we hold at the effective time of our election to be a REIT but only to the extent of the built-in-gain based on the fair
53
market value of those assets on the effective date of the REIT election. Effective January 1, 2004, such tax will be based on the fair market value of our assets as of January 1, 2004. Gain from a sale of an asset occurring more than 10 years after the REIT conversion will not be subject to this corporate-level tax. We currently do not expect to sell any asset if such a sale would result in the imposition of a material tax liability. We cannot, however, assure you that we will not change our plans in this regard.
We intend to conduct a substantial portion of our development business, consisting of our third-party development business, through one or more taxable REIT subsidiaries. Taxable REIT subsidiaries are subject to regular corporate-level tax, and cannot avail themselves of the dividends paid deduction available to REITs. Consequently, income from our third-party development business, and any other income earned by taxable REIT subsidiaries of ours, will be subject to corporate-level tax.
Certain deferred gains on assets owned by us are subject to special gain recognition rules as the result of prior asset transfers between members of the Catellus consolidated group in pre-REIT years. The maximum deferred gains associated with these assets is estimated to be $41.4 million. Certain of these assets will be held by Catellus with the remainder held by Catellus Operating Limited Partnership. The special gain recognition rules require Catellus to include in taxable income the previously deferred gain on assets upon the occurrence of certain events. Such gains would be taxable, for example, if the assets were contributed to a taxable REIT subsidiary or sold, or if the Catellus Operating Limited Partnership admits a new partner and therefore becomes a separate entity for federal income tax purposes.
In addition, the Internal Revenue Service may assert liabilities against us for corporate income taxes for taxable years of Catellus prior to the time we qualify as a REIT, in which case we will owe such taxes plus interest and penalties, if any. Moreover, any increase in taxable income will result in an increase in accumulated earnings and profits which could either increase the taxable portion of the special E&P distribution to our stockholders or cause us to pay an additional taxable distribution to our stockholders within 90 days of the relevant determination.
Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Our primary market risk exposure is interest rate risk as our financial instruments are not subject to foreign exchange rate risk or commodity price risk. We continuously and actively monitor and manage interest costs on our debt and may enter into interest rate-protection contracts based on changing market conditions. At December 31, 2003, we did not have any interest rate protection contracts outstanding.
As of December 31, 2003, approximately 78.4% of our debt bears interest at fixed rates and has a weighted average maturity of 6.7 years and a weighted average coupon rate of 6.74%. The interest rate risk for fixed rate debt does not have a significant impact on the Company until such debt matures and may need to be refinanced. If coupon interest rate changed 100 basis points (1%), the effect on the fair value of our fixed-rate debt would be approximately $53.4 million. The remainder of our debt bears interest at variable rates with a weighted average maturity of 3.1 years and a weighted average coupon rate of 2.87%. To the extent that we incur additional variable rate indebtedness, we increase our exposure to increases in interest rates. If coupon interest rate increased 100 basis points (1%), the annual effect would be an increase in interest expense of approximately $1.9 million, based on the outstanding balance of our floating rate debt net of cash and restricted cash at December 31, 2003. We believe that moderate increases in interest expense as a result of inflation will not materially affect our financial position, results of operations, or cash flow.

No changes in the Companys internal control over financial reporting occurred during the quarter ended December 31, 2003 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Companys internal control over financial reporting.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
Catellus Development Corporation
In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders equity and cash flows present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Catellus Development Corporation and its subsidiaries at December 31, 2003 and 2002, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2003 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Companys management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these statements in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, which 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, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
As discussed in Note 17 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144, Accounting for Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, effective January 1, 2002.

CATELLUS DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1. Description of Business
Catellus Development Corporation (together with is subsidiaries, Catellus, or the Company) owns and develops primarily industrial properties located in major markets in California, Illinois, Texas, Colorado, with planned expansion into Georgia and New Jersey. The Company operated as a fully taxable C-Corporation through December 31, 2003. At December 31, 2003, the Company reorganized its operations in order to operate as a real estate investment trust (REIT) commencing January 1, 2004 (see Note 18).
Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Revenue recognitionRental revenue, in general, is recognized when due from tenants; however, revenue from leases with rent concessions or fixed escalations is recognized on a straight-line basis over the initial term of the lease. Direct costs of negotiating and consummating a lease are deferred and amortized on a straight-line basis over the initial term of the related lease. Rental revenue is not accrued when a tenant vacates the premises and ceases to make rent payments or files for bankruptcy.
The Company recognizes management, development, and other fees as earned. Fees earned from the Companys unconsolidated joint ventures are recognized to the extent of outside ownership with the Companys share deferred. These deferred fees will be recognized when the assets or venture is either sold or liquidated, as appropriate.
The Company recognizes revenue from the sale of properties using the accrual method. Sales not qualifying for full recognition at the time of sale are accounted for under other appropriate deferral methods, including the percentage-of-completion method. When the Company receives inadequate cash down payment and takes a note for the balance, profit is deferred until such time as sufficient cash is received to meet minimum down payment requirements. In general, specific identification and relative sales value methods are used to determine the cost of sales.
Property and deferred chargesReal estate is stated at of cost using the methodology described as follows: (a) for operating properties and properties held for investment, a write-down to estimated fair value is recognized when a propertys estimated undiscounted future cash flow is less than its net book value; (b) for properties held for sale, a write-down to estimated fair value is recorded when the Company determines that the net book value exceeds the estimated selling price, less cost to sell. This evaluation is made by management on a property-by-property basis. Based upon the evaluation, an impairment charge of $6.7 million was recognized as part of cost of sales in 2003, thus reducing the Companys developable land basis by the same amount. The evaluation of future cash flows and fair value of individual properties requires significant judgment; it is reasonably possible that a change in estimate could occur as economic conditions change.
The Company capitalizes direct construction and development costs. Costs associated with financing or leasing projects are also capitalized and amortized over the period benefited by those expenditures on a straight-line basis, which approximates the effective interest rate method.
Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method. Buildings and improvements are depreciated using lives of between 20 and 40 years. Tenant improvements are depreciated over the primary terms of the leases (generally 3-15 years), while furniture and equipment are depreciated using lives ranging between 3 and 10 years.
Maintenance and repair costs are charged to expense as incurred, while significant improvements, replacements, and major renovations are capitalized.

CATELLUS DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(Continued)
Allowance for doubtful accountsAccounts receivable are net of an allowance for uncollectible accounts totaling $1.5 million and $1.6 million at December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively.
Environmental costsThe Company incurs ongoing environmental remediation costs, including cleanup costs, consulting fees for environmental studies and investigations, monitoring costs, and legal costs relating to cleanup, litigation defense, and the pursuit of responsible third parties. Costs incurred in connection with operating properties and properties previously sold are expensed. Costs relating to undeveloped land are capitalized as part of development costs. Costs incurred for properties to be sold are deferred and charged to cost of sales when the properties are sold.
The Company maintains a reserve for estimated costs of environmental remediation to be incurred in connection with operating properties and properties previously sold. For developable land, remediation costs will be capitalized, as incurred, as part of the project costs.
Income taxesBeginning January 1, 2004, Catellus intends to elect to be taxed as a REIT under Sections 856 and 860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (see Note 18). A REIT generally does not incur federal taxes on its taxable income as long as it distributes 90% of its taxable income and meets various income, asset and ownership tests. Because Catellus has reorganized so that it can operate as a REIT beginning January 1, 2004 and intends to elect REIT status upon filing its 2004 tax return, the Company will no longer be taxed and accordingly, Catellus has reversed the majority of its deferred taxes in the fourth quarter 2003. Certain deferred taxes have been maintained including those relating to the Companys Taxable REIT Subsidiaries (TRS) and those related to built-in gains for properties included in the REIT. For the Companys TRS, deferred taxes are recorded based on the future tax effects of the difference between the tax and financial reporting bases of their assets and liabilities. For properties transferred to the REIT, a deferred tax has been recorded for certain assets which the Company believes may be sold within ten years because of certain tenant options or the size and type of property. The deferred tax for built-in gains is computed as the difference between the book and tax basis of those properties which the Company believes will be difficult to transact as tax-free exchanges. In addition, where the Company has recognized a deduction for uncertain tax positions, no financial statement benefit is recorded until the tax impact is certain.
Principles of consolidationThe accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its wholly owned subsidiaries, and investees, which are controlled by the Company (i.e. ability to exercise control over the operations of an entity, including a board where a majority of the votes can be obtained by employees of the Company). Other investees are accounted for by using the equity method, including investees in which the Company has a majority interest, but the minority venture partner(s) has (have) substantive participating rights in the operations of the investee. Another investee, with whom the Company has related party transactions, is accounted for under the cost method.
Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash and investmentsThe Company considers all highly liquid investments with maturity of three months or less at time of purchase to be cash equivalents. Of the restricted cash and investments totaling $64.6 million and $36.6 million at December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively, $38.1 million and $5.1 million, respectively, represent proceeds from property sales being held in separate cash accounts at trust companies in order to preserve the Companys options of reinvesting the proceeds on a tax-deferred basis. Approximately $23.1 million and $24.6 million at December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively, represents funds held in pledge accounts at a bank until certain loan collateral pool requirements are met. In addition, restricted investments of $3.4 million and $6.9 million at December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively, represent certificates of deposit used to guarantee lease performance. The Company maintains cash balances with investment grade financial institutions to mitigate the risk of loss for amounts on deposit in excess of federally insured limits.

CATELLUS DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(Continued)
Interest rate protection contracts (Treasury-lock contracts)The Company may enter into interest rate protection agreements from time to time to lock its interest rate when negotiating fixed rate financing agreements. Amounts paid or received would be capitalized and amortized as a component of interest expense using the effective interest method over the term of the associated debt agreement.
Notes receivableNotes receivable are carried at the principal balance, less estimated uncollectible amounts totaling $1.8 million at December 31, 2003 and 2002. Interest is recognized as earned; however, the Company discontinues accruing interest when collection is considered doubtful. Notes are generally collateralized by real property or a financing agreement.
Financial instrumentsThe historical cost basis of the Companys notes receivable is representative of fair value based on a comparison to year-end interest rates for receivables of comparable risks and maturities. Variable rate debt has carrying values which approximate estimated fair value while fixed rate mortgage loans have an estimated aggregate fair value of $1.13 billion and remaining principal of $1.05 billion based on a comparison to year-end interest rates for debt with similar terms and remaining maturities. The carrying amounts of the Companys cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and investments, accounts receivables, accounts payables, and accrued expenses approximate fair value due to the short term maturities of these assets and liabilities.
Bond financingsAssessment bonds are usually issued by a municipality district or a tax incremental financing entity to finance costs of public infrastructure improvements. The Company records an obligation within mortgage and other debt if the assessment to be levied by the bonds issuer is fixed and determinable, the assessment has been guaranteed by the Company or the Company controls the municipal board (see Notes 3 and 15). In all other cases, the Company records a receivable for the amount due from the municipality as it is incurred.
Income per shareIncome from continuing and discontinued operations per share of common stock applicable to common stockholders is computed by dividing respective income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period (see table below for effect of dilutive securities). Prior years shares have been increased as a result of a stock dividend (see Note 18).

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(Continued)
At December 31, 2003, 1,098,127 shares of restricted stock and restricted stock units were not included in the computation of diluted income per share because the fair market value at date of grant was greater than the average annual market price of the Companys common stock.
Use of estimatesThe preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
ReclassificationsCertain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current year financial statement presentation.
Partnership accountingThe Company accounts for unconsolidated partnerships or other investees who do not qualify as a variable interest equity (collectively referred to as unconsolidated joint ventures) under the equity method including investees in which the Company has a majority interest, but the minority venture partner(s) has (have) substantive participating rights in the operations of the investee. Earnings or losses of unconsolidated joint ventures are recognized to the extent of the Companys ownership or participation interest. The Company does not recognize its share of losses generated by these investments in excess of its investment unless it is legally committed or intends to fund deficits in the future. The Company may provide fee services to joint ventures but will recognize revenues only to the extent of the outside partners ownership interest and will defer profits on its ownership interest until the joint venture is sold or liquidated (see Note 5, Joint Venture Investments).
Minority interestsIn 1999, the Company formed a subsidiary REIT and sold 10% of this subsidiarys stock to minority investors. In January 2003, the Company acquired the 10% interest of the minority investors for $60.7 million. The acquisition was accounted for based on the purchase method of accounting.
New accounting standards
In December 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 46-R, Consolidation of Variable Interest Entitiesan interpretation of ARB No. 51 (FIN 46-R). FIN 46-R requires that any entity meeting certain rules relating to a companys equity investment at risk and level of financial control be consolidated as a variable interest entity. The statement is applicable to all variable interest entities created or acquired after January 31, 2003, and the first interim or annual reporting period beginning after December 15, 2003, for variable interest entities in which the Company holds a variable interest that was acquired before February 1, 2003. The Company has and will adopt FIN 46-R in the time frames as required by the statement. There is no significant effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company as a result of the initial adoption of this standard in regard to existing variable interest entities; however, future newly formed entities could meet these requirements and will be recorded as appropriate. At December 31, 2003, the Company did not own any equity investment created or acquired after January 31, 2003, that qualified as a variable interest equity.
In May 2003, the FASB issued Statement of Accounting Standards No. 150, Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity. SFAS 150 establishes standards for the clarification and measurement of certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. However, in November 2003, the provisions as related to mandatorily redeemable non-controlling interests in finite lived entities have been deferred indefinitely. The other provisions of this statement are effective for financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003, and otherwise were effective at the beginning of the first interim period beginning after June 15, 2003. There is no effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company as a result of adopting this standard.

Accounting for stock-based compensation
At December 31, 2003, the Company has six stock-based employee compensation plans. The Company accounts for those plans under the recognition and measurement principles of APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related Interpretations. All options when granted under those plans had an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. Subsequent modifications relating to the REIT conversion resulted in compensation expense of $2.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2003 (see Notes 11 and 18). The following table illustrates the effect on net income and earnings per share if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of FASB Statement No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, to stock-based employee compensation (see Note 11, for further data regarding Black-Scholes and the Companys option plans).

(a) | The fixed rate mortgage loans consist of the following: a $346.6 million loan bearing interest at 6.01% (6.68% effective rate considering financing costs), with a 30-year amortization schedule and maturing in November 2008; a $281.2 million loan bearing interest of 7.05% (7.17% effective rate considering financing costs) with a 30-year amortization schedule and maturity in April 2012; a $194.7 million loan bearing interest at 7.25% (7.28% effective rate considering financing costs), with a 30-year amortization schedule and maturing in April 2016; a $139.8 million loan bearing interest at 6.65% (6.72% effective rate considering financing costs), maturing on various dates from October 2006 through July 2007; $71.5 million of loans bearing interest at 7.29% (7.43% effective rate considering financing costs), maturing on various dates from January 2008 through May 2010; and $17.2 million of loans bearing interest at 7.23% to 9.50%, maturing on various dates from December 2005 through March 2009. |
These fixed rate mortgage loans are collateralized by certain of the Companys operating properties and by an assignment of rents generated by the underlying properties. These loans have penalties if paid prior to maturity.
(b) | The Companys floating rate mortgage loans are collateralized by operating properties and by an assignment of rents generated by the underlying properties. |
(c) | In 2003, the Company modified a construction loan agreement reducing the facility commitment from $70 million to $50 million and extended the maturity date one year to October 20, 2004, with the option of extending the maturity an additional year to October 20, 2005, if certain conditions are met. At December 31, 2003, the $50 million has been funded. |

The Companys construction loans are used to finance development projects and are collateralized by the related land and improvements. As construction is completed, these loans may be refinanced with fixed or variable rate mortgages.
(d) | During 2003, the Company closed a senior revolving credit facility in the aggregate principal amount of $200 million, of which $50 million was drawn at December 31, 2003. The facility matures in September 2006, unless extended an additional year at the Companys election. The current interest rate is set at the Eurodollar rate plus 2%. The Company has the right during the initial term of the facility to increase the facility amount up to an aggregate principal amount of $300 million. The Company may prepay the facility in whole or in part, at any time without penalty. The initial $50 million proceeds were used to pay down an existing floating rate mortgage loan. |
(e) | Land acquisition and development loans are used to acquire land and/or finance related development and are collateralized by the related land. |
(f) | The assessment district bonds are issued through local municipalities to fund the construction of public infrastructure and improvements, which benefit the Companys properties. Debt service on these bonds is either collateralized by certain of the Companys properties or by letters of credit (see Note 15). In 2003, the Company sold its interest in an unconsolidated joint venture and removed the associated assessment district bond liability of $35.6 million. |
(g) | Other loans include equipment financing of $7.8 million at December 31, 2003, which was subsequently repaid in January 2004. |
Four of the Companys credit agreements, totaling $315 million, have corporate financial covenants including a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.30 to 1, a maximum leverage ratio of 0.65 to 1, a maximum secured indebtedness ratio of 0.50 to 1, and a minimum tangible net worth of $482.4 million, all terms as defined in those agreements. As of or for the period ending December 31, 2003, the actual results were 1.79 to 1; 0.59 to 1; 0.41 to 1; and $709.7 million, respectively. Outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit facility are subject to a borrowing base consisting of various categories of assets. At December 31, 2003, the Company had unused availability of $142.3 million under the line. The Companys 50% guarantee of one of its joint ventures construction loans of $165 million contains corporate financial covenants including a minimum debt service coverage ratio of 1.60 to 1, a maximum leverage ratio of 65%, and a minimum tangible net worth of $482.4 million (subject to adjustment for stock buybacks), with different definitions than the other agreements. As of or for the period ending December 31, 2003, the actual results were 2.03 to 1; 56.4%; and $709.7 million, respectively. The Companys performance against these covenants is measured on a quarterly basis, with fixed charge and debt service coverage ratios being measured on a four-quarter trailing basis. In the event the Company was to breach any of these covenants and was unable to negotiate satisfactory waivers or amendments, the Companys lenders in these credit facilities could declare amounts outstanding due and payable.
The Companys revolving credit facility includes a covenant restricting dividends, subject to certain exceptions, in any fiscal year to the greater of (i) 95% of Funds From Operations or (ii) such amount necessary for the REIT Guarantor to qualify as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code. The first measurement for compliance with this covenant will be after completion of the 2004 fiscal year.

Note 4. Income Taxes
In December 2003, the Company was restructured to enable it to qualify as a REIT effective January 1, 2004. In general, a corporation that elects REIT status and distributes at least 90% of its taxable income to its shareholders and complies with certain other requirements (relating primarily to the nature of its assets and the sources of its revenues) is not subject to Federal income taxation to the extent it distributes its taxable income. The Company believes that it will operate so as to qualify as a REIT beginning January 1, 2004, including paying at least 90% of REIT taxable income to shareholders in 2004 and subsequent years. Based on these considerations, the Company believes that it will not be liable for taxes (except with respect to the items discussed below) and has reversed approximately $118.9 million of previously established tax liabilities in the fourth quarter of 2003.
As part of restructuring operations to enable the Company to qualify as a REIT, subsidiaries have been created (subject to certain size limitations) that qualify as Taxable REIT Subsidiaries (TRS) and will be subject to Federal and State income taxes. Accordingly, the Company will still be liable for federal and state taxes with respect to income earned in the TRS. As a result of this future tax liability, certain assets of the TRS carry temporary differences between book and tax amounts that will continue to be reflected as net deferred tax liabilities at the TRS and in the consolidated balance sheet. In addition, our 1999 and later Federal and State tax returns are still open with certain returns currently under audit, which may result in additional taxes with respect to these prior years. Also, at December 31, 2003, a majority of the Companys assets outside of the TRS have values in excess of tax basis (built-in-gain) of approximately $1.7 billion. Under the REIT rules, the Company is liable for the tax on this built-in-gain if it is realized in a taxable transaction (as for example by sale of the asset) within ten years. The Company believes that it will pay taxes on built-in-gains on certain of the Companys assets in the event the Company cannot effectuate a tax-free exchange. Lastly, the Company expects that once certain tasks are completed, certain of the Companys assets not currently in the TRS will later be contributed to the TRS and carry temporary differences between book and tax amounts.

CATELLUS DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(Continued)
In order to qualify as a REIT, among other things, the Company must distribute all of the accumulated earnings and profits (E&P) of Catellus Development Corporation to the Companys stockholders in one or more taxable dividends prior to the end of the first full taxable year for which the REIT election is effective, which currently is expected to be the taxable year commencing January 1, 2004. To help accomplish the required distribution of accumulated E&P, the Company made a distributions of $128 million in cash and 10.7 million shares of Catellus stock valued at $252 million in the fourth quarter of 2003. The amount of the distributions was based, in part, upon the estimated amount of accumulated E&P at year-end 2003. Although the Company believes that the distributions were sufficient to eliminate all of its accumulated E&P, to the extent that they were not, the Company will make an additional taxable distribution (in the form of cash and/or securities) prior to the end of its first taxable year as a REIT (2004).

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(Continued)
Certain net deferred tax liabilities have been eliminated (as the Company is no longer liable for certain taxes as a REIT), reclassified to other current liabilities, or paid as current taxes in 2003. Included in liabilities reclassified to current tax accrual are those associated with assets likely to be contributed to the TRS, items for which the Company had previously claimed a tax deduction for non-routine transactions but the tax impact is not certain, and taxable transactions in 2003 that had previously been recorded for book purposes in prior years. With regard to items where the tax impact is uncertain, the Company expects such uncertainties to be resolved upon completion of audits currently under way. A permanent income tax benefit of $21.3 million, $1.3 million, and $7.2 million for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2002, and 2001, respectively, associated with the exercise of stock options is credited directly to paid-in capital on the accompanying consolidated statements of stockholders equity.

(m) | Colorado International Center develops and improves for sale 320 acres of mixed-use land in Denver, Colorado, near the new International Airport. This unconsolidated joint venture was sold in January 2004, to an entity whose principal was a former Company employee, for the Companys capital investment balance of $0.3 million. |
In 2001, the Company sold its retained interest in BHC Residential, LLC, and realized a pre-tax gain of $14.2 million (see Note 14), which has been included in Equity in earnings of development joint ventures, net on the consolidated statement of operations.
In September 2003, the Company sold its interest in the Traer Creek LLCs in exchange for a note receivable. A provision in the sales agreement allows for a discount on the purchase price of $1 million depending on the buyers timing of payment of the note. Thus the Company deferred a gain of $5.4 million at December 31, 2003, which was subsequently recognized in January 2004 upon the buyers full payment of the note.
In December 2003, the Company sold its investment interest in Talega Associates, LLC and recorded as Sales revenue $47.4 million with a net sales gain of $41.9 million on the consolidated statement of operations.
The Company guarantees a portion of the debt and interest of certain of its joint ventures. At December 31, 2003, these guarantees totaled $61.9 million. In some cases, other parties have jointly and severally guaranteed these obligations, which are also collateralized by the related properties.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(Continued)
The Companys proportionate share of venturers equity is an aggregate amount for all ventures. Because the Companys ownership percentage differs from venture to venture, because there are varying distribution agreements, and because certain ventures have accumulated equity while others have accumulated deficits, the Companys percentage of venturers equity is not reflective of the Companys ownership percentage of the ventures. The Company does not recognize its share of losses generated by joint ventures in excess of its investment unless it is legally committed or intends to fund deficits in the future.

Note 11. Employee Benefit and Stock-Based Compensation Plans
The Company has a profit sharing and savings plan for all employees. Funding consists of employee contributions along with matching and discretionary profit sharing contributions by the Company. Total expense for the Company under this plan was $1.0 million in 2003 and $1.2 million in each year 2002 and 2001.
The Company has various plans through which employees may purchase or receive common stock of the Company, and through which non-employee directors may purchase or receive common stock of the Company.
The Company has six stock-based compensation plans under which the Board of Directors authorized certain committees of the Board to grant options to purchase stock, restricted stock or restricted stock units (RSUs), or other stock-based awards, representing, in the aggregate, 16,500,000 shares of the Companys common stock. The six plans are the 1991 Stock Option Plan, the Amended and Restated Executive Stock Option Plan, the 1995 Stock Option Plan, the Amended and Restated 1996 Performance Award Plan, the 2000 Performance Award Plan (the 2000 Plan), and the 2003 Performance Award Plan (the 2003 Plan). The 2003 Plan was approved by stockholders at the annual meeting of stockholders in September 2003. Currently, awards of options, restricted stock, RSUs and other stock-based awards may only be made under the 2003 Plan, which authorizes the issuance of a total of 2 million shares.
The exercise price of options granted under these plans is generally the closing price of the common stock on the date of grant. Options typically become exercisable in four annual installments commencing on the first anniversary of the date of grant and expire ten years from the date of grant. However, there are other vesting schedules and expiration periods for options granted under the plans.
F-22
CATELLUS DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(Continued)
Each non-employee director is automatically granted an option, immediately following each annual meeting of stockholders, to purchase 5,000 shares of common stock. Any new non-employee member of the Board will receive an option to purchase a portion of 5,000 shares that corresponds to the number of months until the next annual meeting. The exercise price of each automatic stock option is the closing stock price on the date of grant. Each automatic stock option has a ten-year term and becomes exercisable in four equal installments on each of the first four anniversaries of the date of grant. However, under the terms of the Companys 2003 Plan, the Board may award to each non-employee director restricted stock, which may be in addition to or in lieu of the annual option grant.
In addition, each non-employee director may elect irrevocably to defer any retainers or fees and receive director stock units instead. If a director makes such an election, his or her director stock units will be distributed to him or her in the form of common stock in a single lump sum or in up to five substantially equal installments, beginning on either January 1 of the year immediately following the directors termination of service, or January 1 of another year selected by the director provided that such year is not less than three years after the year in which the compensation being deferred is earned. On the distribution date, the director will receive a number of shares of common stock calculated by dividing the deferred compensation by 90% of the fair market value of the common stock on the date of credit. When the Company pays dividends, dividend equivalents are credited to the directors already vested director stock units in the form of additional director stock units. The number of additional director stock units is calculated by (i) multiplying the dividend equivalent amount by the number of already vested director stock units and (ii) dividing the resulting amount by 90% of the closing price of our common stock on the dividend payment date.
The Company granted restricted stock or RSU awards to certain employees in October and November 2003 under the 2003 Plan. In October 2003, in connection with the REIT conversion, the Company offered employees the right to exchange certain unvested stock options for restricted stock or, in some cases, RSUs. Those employees who elected to accept the exchange offer received restricted stock or RSU awards in November 2003 under the 2000 Plan. For those eligible option shares not exchanged, a stock option modification was deemed, therefore triggering variable accounting which resulted in a $6.6 million charge to be amortized over the remaining vesting periods. Unrelated to the exchange offer, the Company granted restricted stock or RSUs to certain employees in awards in November 2003 and January 2004 under the 2000 Plan.
Restricted stock and RSUs typically vest in equal installments over three years. Except for the restricted stock and RSU awards that were granted in connection with the exchange offer, certain committees of the Board of Directors determine, in their discretion, the employees who receive restricted stock or RSU awards.
The Company has elected to follow Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees (APB 25), and related Interpretations in accounting for its employee stock options because, as discussed below, the alternative fair value accounting provided for under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation (Statement 23) requires use of option valuation models that were developed for use in valuing publicly traded stock options. Under APB 25, because the exercise price of the Companys employee stock options equals the market price of the underlying stock on the date of grant, no compensation expense is recognized unless there is a subsequent modification.
Pro forma information regarding net income and income per share as required by Statement 123 is presented in Note 2 and has been determined as if the Company had accounted for its employee stock options under the fair value method. The weighted-average fair value of options granted during 2003, 2002, and 2001 was $5.65, $5.01, and $5.42, respectively. The fair value of options granted was estimated at the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions for 2003, 2002, and 2001,
F-23
CATELLUS DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(Continued)
respectively: risk-free interest rates of 2.85%, 3.47%, and 4.42%; zero percent dividend yields; volatility factors of the expected market price of the Companys common stock of 19.59%, 22.5%, and 24.0%; and a weighted-average expected life of the options of five years.
The Black-Scholes option valuation model was developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options, which have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable. In addition, option valuation models require the input of highly subjective assumptions, including the expected stock price volatility. Because the Companys employee stock options have characteristics significantly different from those of traded options, and because changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate, in managements opinion, the existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable measure of the fair value of its employee stock options.
A summary of the Companys stock option activity, and related information is as follows (prior years have been restated as a result of the stock dividend and exchange offer program (see Note 18):

In December 2003, in connection with the Companys restructuring to qualify as a REIT (see Notes 1 and 18), the Company retired its 23.6 million shares of treasury stock as a reduction to paid in capital. The Company has no treasury stock at December 31, 2003.
In 2003, the Company granted restricted stock and restricted stock units representing 1,152,455 shares (see Note 11), with a fair market value of $25.8 million and, generally, a three-year vesting period. At December 31, 2003, there were 1,098,127 unvested shares represented by the restricted stock and restricted stock units outstanding with an unearned book value of $22.7 million.
On October 8, 2003, the Companys Board of Directors declared a regular cash dividend for the quarter ended September 30, 2003, of $0.30 per share of common stock, or $27.6 million that was paid on November 25, 2003, to stockholders of record at the close of business on November 4, 2003.
On December 3, 2003, the Companys Board declared a regular cash dividend for the quarter ending December 31, 2003, of $0.27 per share of common stock, or $27.7 million, that was paid on January 15, 2004, to stockholders of record at the close of business on December 29, 2003.
On December 8, 2003, the Company announced results of the stockholders elections regarding the special earnings and profits (E&P) dividend, a one-time distribution of our accumulated E&P that was part of our conversion to a real estate investment trust effective January 1, 2004. The E&P per share distribution, declared by the Board and announced on October 8, 2003, at $3.83 per share, was paid on December 18, 2003, to stockholders of record at the close of business November 4, 2003. Through December 1, stockholders had the opportunity to elect how they preferred to receive their dividendall stock, all cash, or a combination of 20 percent cash and 80 percent stock. As a result of the elections, the total stock portion of the E&P distribution was 10.66 million shares. The number of shares of stock distributed was calculated based on the average closing price of the Companys stock from December 2, 2003, through December 8, 2003, which was $23.612. The total cash portion of the E&P distribution was $100.3 million.
On February 11, 2004, the Companys Board declared a regular cash dividend for the quarter ending March 31, 2004, of $0.27 per share of common stock payable on April 15, 2004, to stockholders of record at the close of business on March 29, 2004.
Note 13. Segment Reporting
The Companys reportable segments are based on the Companys method of internal reporting, which disaggregates its business between long-term operations and those which the Company intends to transition out of over the next several years and before the adjustments for discontinued operations. The Company has two reportable segments: Core Segment and Urban, Residential, and Other Segment (URO). Core Segment includes (1) the management and leasing of the Companys rental portfolio, (2) commercial development activities, which focuses on acquiring and developing suburban commercial business parks for the Companys own rental portfolio and selling land and/or buildings that the Company has developed to users and other parties; and (3) select land development opportunities where the Company can utilize its land development skills with minimal capital investment. URO includes the remaining residential projects, urban development activities and desert land sales, and assets the Company intends to transition out of over time, and REIT transition costs.
The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies (see Note 2). Inter-segment gains and losses are not recognized. Debt and interest-bearing assets are allocated to segments based upon the grouping of the underlying assets. All other assets and liabilities are specifically identified.

Note 14. Sale of Homebuilding Assets
In July 2000, the Companys residential subsidiary sold a majority of its homebuilding assets, with a book value of $125.8 million, to a newly formed limited liability company (LLC) managed by Brookfield Homes of California, Inc., for $139 million in cash and a retained interest in the new company valued at $22.5 million. Approximately $77 million of the initial cash proceeds were used for debt repayment, closing costs, and other expenses related to the sale of the homebuilding operations. The remaining proceeds were added to the Companys working capital. Under the agreement, the Companys residential subsidiary was entitled to a preferred return on the retained interest and 35% of additional profits from LLC operations. The deferred gain related to the retained interest and the 35% share of profits from LLCs operations were recorded as part of Equity in earnings of development joint ventures, net as homes/lots were sold by LLC.
In 2000, the Company recorded a $13.4 million gain on property sales related to this transaction and recognized $8.3 million of the $22.5 million retained interest, $0.8 million of the Companys 35% share of the profits of the LLC, and a $1 million preferred return from the Companys investment in the LLC.
In 2001, the Company sold its retained interest in the LLC for $8.2 million and recognized the remaining deferred gain of $14.2 million, which has been included as part of Equity in earnings of development joint ventures, net.
Note 15. Commitments and Contingencies
The Company has surety bonds and standby letters of credit related to various development projects, lease payment guarantees, various debt and debt service guarantees, and capital contribution commitments related to certain unconsolidated real estate joint ventures. These surety bonds, standby letters of credit, guarantees and capital contribution commitments as of December 31, 2003, are summarized in the following categories (in thousands):
Off-balance sheet liabilities: |

$ | 328,964 | |
Surety bonds are to guarantee the construction of infrastructure and public improvements as a requirement of entitlement. Surety bonds are commonly required by public agencies from real estate developers, are renewable, and expire upon completion of the required improvements. The typical development period of the Companys development projects is approximately one to three years. An example of the type of event that would require the Company to perform under these surety bonds would be the failure of the Company to construct or complete the required improvements. At December 31, 2003, the Company has not been required to fund any of the surety bonds.
Standby letters of credit consist of two types: performance and financial. Performance standby letters of credit are similar in nature and term as the surety bonds described above. Financial standby letters of credit are a

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(Continued)
form of credit enhancement commonly required in real estate development when bonds are issued to finance public improvements; these financial standby letters of credit are scheduled to expire between January 2004 and June 2006. As of December 31, 2003, the Company has a total of $64.0 million in these standby letters of credit; $47.7 million of the total is off-balance sheet ($40 million in financial letters of credit and $7.7 million in performance letters of credit), while the remaining $16.3 million are related to obligations that are reflected in the Companys consolidated balance sheet ($12.9 million in Mortgage and other debt and $3.4 million in Restricted cash and investments). The $16.3 million of letters of credit were issued as additional security for liabilities already recorded on the balance sheet for separate accounting reasons (primarily assessment bond obligations of assessment districts whose operating boards the Company controls). This is different from the $47.7 million in letters of credit that are related to non-balance sheet items. When the assessment districts are consolidated, the balance sheet is fully consolidated, so there are several corresponding debits, the most significant of which is the associated improvements. An example of the type of event that would require the Company to perform under the performance standby letters of credit would be the failure of the Company to construct or complete the required improvements. An example of the type of event that would require the Company to perform under the financial standby letters of credit would be a debt service shortfall in the municipal district that issued the municipal bonds. At December 31, 2003, the Company has not been required to satisfy any of these standby letters of credit.
The Company has made debt service guarantees for certain of its unconsolidated joint ventures. At December 31, 2003, based on the joint ventures outstanding balance, these debt guarantees totaled $61.9 million. These debt service guarantees are scheduled to expire between June 2004 and September 2005. These debt service guarantees are typical business arrangements commonly required of real estate developers. An example of the types of event that would require the Company to provide a cash payment pursuant to a guarantee include a loan default, which would result from failure of the primary borrower to service its debt when due, or non-compliance of the primary borrower with financial covenants or inadequacy of asset collateral. At December 31, 2003, the Company has not been required to satisfy any amounts under these debt service guarantees.
The Company is required to make additional capital contributions to five of its unconsolidated joint ventures should additional capital contributions be necessary to fund development costs or operating shortfalls. The Company agreed with an unconsolidated joint venture to make additional contributions should there be insufficient funds to meet its current or projected financial requirements. As of December 31, 2003, the Company cumulatively contributed $18.7 million to this unconsolidated joint venture, as additional contributions. The Company is also required to make additional capital contributions to another three of its unconsolidated joint ventures should additional capital contributions be necessary (see chart below). As of December 31, 2003, the Company does not expect to fund any significant capital contributions beyond the maximum capital requirements.

Generally, any funding of off-balance sheet guarantees would result in the increase of Catellus ownership interest in a project or entity similar to the treatment of a unilateral additional capital contribution to an investee.

CATELLUS DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(Continued)
In addition to the contingent liabilities summarized in the table above, the Company also has the following contingencies:
As of December 31, 2003, $163.3 million of Community Facility District bonds were sold to finance public infrastructure improvements at several Company projects. The Company provided letters of credit totaling $40.0 million in support of some of these bonds. The $40.0 million is included in the standby letters of credit and surety bonds amounts disclosed above. The Company, along with other landowners, is required to satisfy any shortfall in annual debt service obligation for these bonds if incremental tax revenues generated by the projects are insufficient. As of December 31, 2003, the Company does not expect to be required to satisfy any shortfall in annual debt service obligation for these bonds.
The Company is a party to a number of legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. The Company cannot predict with certainty the final outcome of these proceedings. Considering current insurance coverages and the substantial legal defenses available, however, management believes that none of these actions, when finally resolved, will have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial conditions, results of operations, or cash flows of the Company. Where appropriate, the Company has established reserves for potential liabilities related to legal actions or threatened legal actions. These reserves are necessarily based on estimates and probabilities of the occurrence of events and therefore are subject to revision from time to time.
Inherent in the operations of the real estate business is the possibility that environmental liability may arise from the current or past ownership, or current or past operation, of real properties. The Company may be required in the future to take action to correct or reduce the environmental effects of prior disposal or release of hazardous substances by third parties, the Company, or its corporate predecessors. Future environmental costs are difficult to estimate because of such factors as the unknown magnitude of possible contamination, the unknown timing and extent of the corrective actions that may be required, the determination of the Companys potential liability in proportion to that of other potentially responsible parties, and the extent to which such costs are recoverable from insurance. Also, the Company does not generally have access to properties sold by it in the past.
At December 31, 2003, management estimates that future costs for remediation of environmental contamination on operating properties and properties previously sold approximate $2.8 million, and has provided a reserve for that amount. It is anticipated that such costs will be incurred over the next several years. Management also estimates approximately $11.1 million of similar costs relating to the Companys properties to be developed or sold. The Company may incur additional costs related to management of excess contaminated soil from our projects; however, the necessity of this activity depends on the type of future development activities, and, therefore, the related costs are not currently determinable. These costs will be capitalized as components of development costs when incurred, which is anticipated to be over a period of approximately twenty years, or will be deferred and charged to cost of sales when the properties are sold. Environmental costs capitalized during the year ended December 31, 2003, totaled $3.2 million. The Companys estimates were developed based on reviews that took place over several years based upon then-prevailing law and identified site conditions. Because of the breadth of its portfolio, and past sales, the Company is unable to review each property extensively on a regular basis. Such estimates are not precise and are always subject to the availability of further information about the prevailing conditions at the site, the future requirements of regulatory agencies, and the availability and ability of other parties to pay some or all of such costs.
Note 16. Related Party Transactions
The entities below are considered related parties because the listed transactions are with entities in which the Company has an ownership interest. There are no affiliated persons involved with these entities.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(Continued)
The Company provides development and management services and loan guarantees to various unconsolidated joint venture investments. Fees earned were $7.0 million, $4.2 million, and $1.2 million, in 2003, 2002, and 2001, respectively, primarily from Third and King Investors, LLC, Traer Creek LLC, Talega Village, LLC, and Serrano Associates, LLC. Deferred fees of $0.5 million from Serrano Associates, LLC at December 31, 2003, will be earned as completed projects are sold or the venture is sold or liquidated. In September 2003, the Company sold its investment interest in Traer Creek LLCs. A provision in the sales allows for a discount on the purchase price of $1 million depending on the buyers timing of payment of the note. Thus the Company deferred a gain of $5.4 million at December 31, 2003, which was subsequently fully recognized in January 2004 upon the buyers full payment of the note.
In 2001, the Company entered into a 99-year ground lease with one of its unconsolidated joint venture investments, Third and King Investors, LLC. Rent payments of $5.0 million, $3.7 million, and $1.8 million were received and recognized as rental income during the years ended December 31, 2003, 2002, and 2001, respectively. Rent payments of $1.3 million of previously received rent was deferred at December 31, 2003, and will be recognized, together with annual rents, over the life of the lease.
The Company has a $4.7 million collateralized 9.0% note receivable from an unconsolidated joint venture, East Baybridge Partners, LP, for project costs plus accrued interest. The note is collateralized by property owned by the venture, and matures in October 2028. The Company has entered into various lease agreements with this unconsolidated joint venture. As lessee, rent expense was $0.1 million in each of the years 2003, 2002, and 2001; this lease will expire in November 2011. As lessor, the Company entered into a ground lease, which will expire in August 2054. The Company earned rental income of $0.2 million in each of the last three years and has recorded a $2.2 million receivable associated with this lease.
In January 2004, the Company sold its 45% investment interest in Colorado International Center, an unconsolidated joint venture, for its capital investment balance of $0.3 million to a entity whose principal was a former Company employee.
Note 17. Discontinued Operations
Effective January 1, 2002, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long Lived Assets, which addresses financial accounting and reporting for the impairment and disposal of long-lived assets. In general, sales of rental property, are classified as discontinued operations. Therefore, income or loss attributed to the operations and sale of rental property sold or held for sale is presented in the statement of operations as discontinued operations, net of applicable income tax. Prior period statements of operations have been reclassified to reflect as discontinued operations the income or loss related to rental properties that were sold or held for sale and presented as discontinued operations during the year ended December 31, 2003. Additionally, all periods presented will likely require further reclassification in future periods as additional, similar sales of rental properties occur.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(Continued)
announced that it had completed the restructuring of its operations to qualify as a REIT and began operating as a REIT as of January 1, 2004. The REIT conversion had the following effects on the financial statements as of or for the year ended December 31, 2003:
| a one-time distribution of pre-REIT accumulated earnings and profits (E&P) of $3.83 per share of common stock, or $352 million, paid on December 18, 2003, to stockholders of record at the close of business on November 4, 2003. The special E&P dividend was payable in the form of cash, shares of Catellus common stock, or a combination of both at the election of each stockholder with certain cash and ownership limitations, including a limitation of $100 million on the total cash portion of the distribution. As a result of the elections, 10.7 million shares of common stock were distributed based on an average price of $23.612 per share and $100.3 million in cash was distributed |
| a third quarter dividend of $0.30 per share of common stock was declared on October 8, 2003, and paid on November 25, 2003, to stockholders of record at the close of business on November 4, 2003, which was prior to the E&P distribution. A cash dividend of $0.27 per common share for the fourth quarter 2003 was declared on December 3, 2003, and paid on January 15, 2004, to stockholders of record at the close of business on December 29, 2003, which was after the E&P distribution. The actual amount of the dividends for subsequent quarters will be as determined and declared by the Companys Board of Directors and will depend on the Companys financial condition, earnings, and other factors, many of which are beyond the Companys control |
| conversion and related restructuring costs of $7.3 million were paid to third parties |
| one-time costs associated with the stock option exchange offer approximated $32 million, which includes the costs for the restricted stock and restricted stock units of $25.6 million (such cost will be amortized over three years), and compensation expenses of $6.6 million as a result of the required variable accounting treatment for the remaining outstanding options upon the expiration of the exchange offer program on October 29, 2003, (such expense will be amortized over the remaining vesting period of the options) |
| certain deferred tax liabilities associated with assets in the REIT were reversed in the fourth quarter through income and resulted in a one-time increase in income of $118.9 million |

CATELLUS DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION
Summarized Quarterly Results (Unaudited)
The Companys income and cash flow are determined to a large extent by property sales. Sales and net income have fluctuated significantly from quarter to quarter, as evidenced by the following summary of unaudited quarterly consolidated results of operations. Property sales fluctuate from quarter to quarter, reflecting general market conditions and the Companys intent to sell property when it can obtain attractive prices. Cost of sales may also vary widely because (i) properties have been owned for varying periods of time; (ii) properties are owned in various geographical locations; and (iii) development projects have varying infrastructure costs and build-out periods.
