EXPLANATORY NOTE

        Behringer Harvard Opportunity REIT I, Inc. (which may be referred to as the "Company," "we," "us," or "our") filed its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2010, filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on August 13, 2010 (the "Original Filing"). The Original Filing included a discussion of our funds from operations ("FFO") and modified funds from operations ("MFFO") in "Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations." After the Original Filing was made, we discovered that we had not included in the impairment charges and provision for loan losses added back to determine MFFO for the six months ended June 30, 2010 an approximate $7,136,000 provision for loan loss incurred in the first quarter of 2010 to determine MFFO for the six months ended June 30, 2010. The Original Filing incorrectly reported MFFO and MFFO per share of approximately $(1,942,000) and $(0.03), respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2010. The correct amounts are approximately $5,194,000 of MFFO and MFFO per share of $0.09.

        We are amending the Original Filing to correct this error in the "Funds from Operations and Modified Funds from Operations" subsection of "Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" by restating that subsection in its entirety. We are not amending any other part of the Original Filing. This amendment speaks as of the date of the Original Filing.


Item 2.    Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

        The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the accompanying financial statements of the Company and the notes thereto.

Executive Overview

        We are a Maryland corporation that was formed in November 2004 to invest in and operate commercial real estate or real-estate related assets located in or outside the United States on an opportunistic basis. We conduct substantially all of our business through our operating partnership and its subsidiaries. We are organized and qualify as a real-estate investment trust ("REIT") for federal income tax purposes.

        We are externally managed and advised by Behringer Harvard Opportunity Advisors I, LLC ("Behringer Opportunity Advisors I"), a Texas limited liability company formed in June 2007. Behringer Opportunity Advisors I is responsible for managing our day-to-day affairs and for identifying and making acquisitions and investments on our behalf.

        As of June 30, 2010, we had invested in 22 assets: 11 consolidated wholly owned properties; five properties consolidated through investments in joint ventures, including two hotel and development properties and a mixed-use property; an investment in an island development accounted for under the equity method; an investment in a portfolio of 22 properties located in four Central European countries accounted for under the equity method; two investments in student housing projects in Texas and Virginia, also accounted for under the equity method; and two mezzanine loans on multifamily properties, which were consolidated prior to January 1, 2010. Our investment properties are located in Arizona, California, Colorado, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Missouri, Nevada, Texas, Virginia, the Commonwealth of The Bahamas, London, England, the Czech Republic, Poland, Hungary, and Slovakia.

Market Outlook

        Beginning in 2008, the U.S. and global economies experienced a significant downturn. This downturn included disruptions in the broader financial and credit markets, declining consumer confidence, and an increase in unemployment rates. These conditions have contributed to weakened market conditions. Due to the struggling U.S. and global economies, overall demand across most real estate sectors including office, hospitality, and retail remains low due to losses in the financial and professional services industries and a U.S. unemployment rate of 10% throughout much of the second half of 2009. We believe that corresponding rental rates will also remain weak at least through the third quarter of 2010. The national vacancy percentage for office space increased from 14.5% in the fourth quarter of 2008 to 19.6% in the first quarter of 2010. Vacancies are expected to peak at around 20% in 2010. Further, we believe that tenant defaults and bankruptcies are likely to increase in the short-term.

3



To date, we have not experienced any significant tenant defaults resulting in the loss of material rental income.

        The hospitality industry continues to be negatively affected by the poor global economy. Smith Travel Research indicates that the national overall occupancy rate for hospitality properties in the United States declined from 53.1% in the fourth quarter of 2008 to 51.9% in the first quarter of 2010. The national overall Average Daily Rate ("ADR") has also declined, from $103.43 in the fourth quarter of 2008 to $96.27 in the first quarter of 2010. This weakening of the hospitality industry is expected to continue throughout 2010 and is not expected to recover until 2011.

        In the multifamily real estate sector, a limited new supply of multifamily assets is expected in the near future. Since high quality multifamily developments can take 18 months to 36 months to entitle, obtain necessary permits, and construct, we believe there will be an imbalance in supply and demand fundamentals for at least the next couple of years. As the economy improves, we expect renter demand and effective rents to increase in multifamily communities.

        We have several projects in various stages of development including Rio Salado located in Phoenix, Arizona; Frisco Square located in Frisco, Texas; The Lodge & Spa at Cordillera located in Edwards, Colorado; and Royal Island, located in The Bahamas. Due in large part to the struggling U.S. and global economies, we have decided to defer further substantive development activities on these projects for the near term.

        While it is unclear as to when the overall economy will recover, we do not expect conditions to improve significantly in the near future. Management expects that the current volatility in the capital markets will continue, at least in the short-term. This volatility has significantly impacted the availability of credit for borrowers. The Wall Street Journal reported in February 2010 that lending by U.S. banks fell by 7.4% in 2009 compared to the prior year, the largest decline in bank lending since 1942. These market conditions make it more difficult to refinance assets when their mortgages mature as well as impact our ability to access bank capital for leasing, tenant improvements, and other capital needs of our properties. Consequently, we may seek alternative sources of financing to achieve our investment objectives including using the proceeds from the sale of our properties and/or temporarily reducing or eliminating our quarterly dividend.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

        Our principal demands for funds for the next twelve months and beyond will be for the payment of costs associated with the lease-up of available space at our operating properties (including commissions, tenant improvements, and capital improvements), for certain ongoing costs at our development properties, for the payment of operating expenses and distributions, and for the payment of interest and principal on our outstanding indebtedness. Generally, cash needs for items other than costs associated with the lease-up of available space at our operating properties (including commissions, tenant improvements, and capital improvements) and ongoing costs at our development properties are expected to be met from operations and borrowings. In August 2010, Behringer Opportunity Advisors I deferred until March 31, 2011 our obligation to pay all asset management fees accruing during the months of May 2010 through October 2010 and all debt financing fees and expense reimbursements accruing during the months of July 2010 through October 2010. Also in August 2010, BH Property Management deferred until March 31, 2011 our obligation to pay property management oversight fees accruing during the months of July 2010 through October 2010.

        We expect to fund our short-term liquidity requirements by using the short-term borrowings and cash flow from the operations of our current investments. Operating cash flows are expected to be flat due to rental revenue stabilizing on our operating properties combined with lower hotel revenues at The Lodge and Spa at Cordillera offset by anticipated condominium sales at The Private Residences at The Chase Park Plaza. For both our short-term and long-term liquidity requirements, other potential

4



future sources of capital may include proceeds from secured or unsecured debt financing, asset dispositions, reduction or elimination of the amount of distributions paid, decreases in the amount of nonessential capital expenditures, deferral of fees paid to Behringer Harvard Opportunity Advisors I, further limitation on the payment of dividend redemptions, and undistributed funds from operations. If necessary, we may use financings or other sources of capital in the event of unforeseen significant capital expenditures.

    Debt Financings

        We may, from time to time, make mortgage, bridge, or mezzanine loans and other loans for investments or property development. We may obtain financing at the time an investment is made or at such later time as determined to be necessary, depending on multiple factors. Except as noted below, we believe that we were in compliance with the debt covenants under our loan agreements as of June 30, 2010.

        Our notes payable decreased to $352.1 million at June 30, 2010 from $429.8 million at December 31, 2009 primarily as a result of the deconsolidation of Tanglewood at Voss and Alexan Black Mountain, effective January 1, 2010 (see Note 8 to our consolidated financial statements). Each of our loans is secured by one or more of our properties. At June 30, 2010, our notes payable interest rates ranged from 2.1% to 6.3%, with a weighted average interest rate of 3.2%. Generally, our notes payable mature at approximately two to ten years from origination and require payments of interest only for approximately two to five years, with all principal and interest due at maturity. Notes payable associated with our Northborough and Frisco Square investments require monthly payments of both principal and interest. At June 30, 2010, our notes payable had maturity dates that range from July 2010 to January 2016.

        The commercial real estate debt markets have been experiencing and continue to experience volatility as a result of certain factors, including the tightening of underwriting standards by lenders and credit rating agencies. Credit spreads for major sources of capital have widened significantly as investors have demanded a higher risk premium. This is resulting in lenders increasing the cost for debt financing. Current economic conditions, as well as few unmortgaged assets, negatively impact our ability to finance capital needs through borrowings. Current market conditions also make it more difficult to refinance assets when their mortgages mature. In general, in the current market lenders have increased the amount of equity required to support either new or existing borrowings. Consequently, there is greater uncertainty regarding our ability to access the credit markets in order to attract financing on reasonable terms.

        Except for selected sub-markets in the multifamily sector, capitalization rates (or cap rates) for real estate properties have generally increased. Cap rates and property prices move inversely so that an increase in cap rates should, absent an increase in property net operating income, result in a decrease in property value. Although this development is positive for new property acquisitions, the overall impact will likely be negative for us because we believe it will further strain our ability to finance our business using existing assets and to refinance debt on our existing assets because our properties may be viewed as less valuable.

        As the overall cost of borrowings increase, either by increases in the index rates or by increases in lender spreads, we will need to factor such increases into the economics of our developments and property contributions. This may result in our investment operations generating lower overall economic returns and a reduced level of cash flow, which could potentially impact our ability to make distributions to our stockholders at current levels. In addition, the recent dislocations in the debt markets have reduced the amount of capital that is available to finance real estate, which, in turn: (i) leads to a decline in real estate values generally; (ii) slows real estate transaction activity; (iii) reduces the loan to value upon which lenders are willing to extend debt; and, (iv) results in

5



difficulty in refinancing debt as it becomes due, all of which may reasonably be expected to have a material adverse impact on the value of real estate investments and the revenues, income or cash flow from the acquisition and operations of real properties and mortgage loans. In addition, the current state of the debt markets has negatively impacted the ability to raise equity capital.

        If debt financing is not available on acceptable terms and conditions, we may not be able to refinance maturing debt or obtain financing for investments. Domestic and international financial markets have been experiencing and continue to experience unusual volatility and uncertainty. If this volatility and uncertainty persists, our ability to borrow monies, on acceptable terms and conditions, to finance the purchase of, or other activities related to, real estate assets will be significantly impacted. If we are unable to borrow monies on acceptable terms and conditions, we may find it difficult, costly or impossible to refinance indebtedness upon maturity. If interest rates are higher when the properties are refinanced, our cash flow from operating activities will be reduced. In addition, in the current market, lenders have increased the amount of equity required to support either new or existing borrowings.

    Santa Clara

        The Santa Clara Tech Center property consists of three buildings: the 700, 750, and 800 buildings. The mortgage and mezzanine loans (collectively, the "Original Loans") associated with the Santa Clara Tech Center matured on June 9, 2010. As of the maturity date, due to ongoing negotiations with an unaffiliated third party (the "Santa Clara JV Partner") to create the joint ventures discussed below, we had not yet reached an agreement with the lender to extend the terms of the Original Loans and accordingly, we were granted a forbearance by the lender through August 5, 2010.

        On August 5, 2010, concurrent with entering into two new joint ventures with the Santa Clara JV Partner, we reached an agreement with the lender to modify and extend the Original Loans in the following manner:

    The agreements associated with the Original Loans were severed and replaced by new loan agreements with the same lender by bifurcating the Original Loans into two new loans (the "Replacement Loans") such that specific debt is associated with the 700 & 750 buildings separate from debt associated with the 800 building;

    The new joint ventures paid down the Original Loans' balance by an aggregate $7 million, such that the balances of the Replacement Loans at inception was an aggregate of $45.5 million;

    The maturity date of the Replacement Loans is June 9, 2013; and

    The Replacement Loans require payment of interest only until maturity at a rate equal to:

    Replacement mortgage loans—either (i) the greater of 1% or the 30-day LIBOR, plus 4.75% (the "LIBOR Option"), or (ii) the prime rate plus the difference between the LIBOR Option and the prime rate; and

    Replacement mezzanine loans—either (i) the greater of 1% or the 30-day LIBOR, plus 8.5% (the "Mezzanine LIBOR Option"), or (ii) the prime rate plus the difference between the Mezzanine LIBOR Option and the prime rate.

        As of June 30, 2010, the aggregate balance due under the Original Loans was $52.5 million. Following the August 5, 2010 modification and extension, the balance due under the Replacement Loans was an aggregate $45.5 million. There is no penalty for prepayment of the Replacement Loans, subject to certain conditions.

        Further, on August 5, 2010, we entered into the following arrangements:

    We sold to the Santa Clara JV Partner a 50% interest in the Santa Clara Tech Center property for cash of $8.8 million.

6


    Concurrent with the sale, we entered into two new joint venture agreements with the Santa Clara JV Partner such that one joint venture holds the 700 and 750 buildings separate from the joint venture that holds the 800 building. We contributed our remaining 50% interest in the Santa Clara Tech Center along with $8.8 million of cash in exchange for 50% interests each of the two new joint ventures. The Santa Clara JV Partner also contributed $8.8 million of cash and their 50% interest in the Santa Clara Tech Center in exchange for their respective 50% interests. In addition, the Santa Clara JV Partner acquired separate preferred equity interests in the joint ventures for an aggregate of $7.5 million in cash. The joint venture agreements specify that all future capital needs of the joint ventures are to be funded pari passu to each partner's respective interest in the joint ventures.

        Our interests in the joint ventures are noncontrolling, unconsolidated interests which we expect to account for using the equity method of accounting. Accordingly, effective, August 5, 2010, we expect to deconsolidate the Santa Clara Tech Center property on our consolidated financial statements.

    Becket House

        Our loan agreements generally stipulate that we comply with certain reporting and financial covenants. These covenants include, among other things, notifying the lender of any change in management and maintaining minimum debt service coverage ratios. As a result of the difficult economic conditions negatively impacting both occupancy and rental rates at the Becket House, which caused lease renewals and new leases to be executed at substantially lower rates per square foot, we were unable to meet certain financial covenants under the Becket House loan agreement as of June 30, 2010. In addition, in 2009 and 2008, we recognized impairment charges related to our leasehold interest in Becket House of $9.9 million and $6 million, respectively. Failure to meet the loan covenants under the loan agreement constitutes a technical default and, absent a waiver or modification of the loan agreement, the lender may accelerate maturity with any unpaid interest and principal immediately due and payable. At June 30, 2010, the outstanding principal balance of the Becket House loan was $17.6 million. We are currently in negotiations with the lender to waive the event of noncompliance or modify the loan agreement. However, there are no assurances that we will be successful in our negotiations with the lender. The Becket House loan is non-recourse to us.

    Ferncroft

        At Ferncroft Corporate Center ("Ferncroft"), our wholly owned eight-story office building located in Middleton, Massachusetts, our two largest tenants renewed their leases for additional terms but for a combined 60,000 square feet less than they previously occupied. As a result of this significant drop in occupancy we are currently operating under a cash management arrangement in accordance with Ferncroft's $18 million CMBS mortgage loan agreement. Accordingly, tenant rental payments are deposited in a restricted lockbox account. As such, we do not have direct access to these rental payments, and the disbursement of cash from the restricted lockbox account to us is at the discretion of the loan's servicer. Furthermore, we have been unable to disburse cash from the restricted lockbox account to us in order to pay Ferncroft's operating expenses. Not paying the operating expenses as they become due constitutes an event of default under the loan agreement. The Ferncroft loan is non-recourse to us. We are in negotiations with the servicer and there are several potential outcomes including a loan modification for us to retain ownership in return for additional capital commitments, a sale of the property to a third-party, or a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure. However, as of the date of this report we expect that the most likely outcome will be a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure. We remain the title holder on Ferncroft as of June 30, 2010, and as of the date of this report.

        One of our principal long-term liquidity requirements includes the repayment of maturing debt, including borrowings under our senior secured credit facility discussed below. The following table

        Included in the $140.6 million of principal payments—variable rate debt due in 2010, is $52.5 million related to Santa Clara Tech Center. On August 5, 2010, we reached an agreement with the lender to modify and extend the Santa Clara note payable to June 9, 2013. Notes payable related to Chase Park Plaza Hotel of $77.5 million, and Chase—The Private Residences of $9.7 million are scheduled to mature in 2010. The loan agreements for Chase Park Plaza Hotel and Chase—The Private Residences provide us with two one-year options to extend the maturity dates of the notes payable, subject to certain conditions. In the second half of 2010, we expect to further pay down the outstanding balance on the note payable related to Chase—The Private Residences through proceeds from the sale of the condominium unit currently under contract or reserved as of June 30, 2010. We are in discussions with the respective lenders to extend the maturity date or refinance these loans. If we are unable to reach a satisfactory arrangement with the lenders or are unable to extend the maturity dates under the loan agreements, we could go into default under the respective loan agreements. Consequently, we may seek other lenders to refinance the notes payable or seek alternative sources of funding, including the use of proceeds from the sale of our properties.

    Credit Facility

        On February 13, 2008, we entered into a senior secured revolving credit facility (the "Credit Agreement") providing for up to $75 million of secured borrowings with Bank of America, as lender and administrative agent, and other lending institutions that become a party to the Credit Agreement. The credit facility is secured by a first lien on all real property assets in a collateral pool consisting of five wholly owned properties. Loans under the credit facility bear interest at an annual rate that is equal to a combination of (i) the LIBOR plus an applicable margin that, depending upon the debt service coverage ratio, may vary from 1.5% to 1.7%, or (ii) the prime rate plus an applicable margin that, depending upon the debt service coverage ratio, may vary from 0% to 0.2%. The credit facility matures on February 13, 2011. We have two options to extend the maturity date for a period of twelve months each upon meeting certain conditions per the Credit Agreement.

        We have unconditionally guaranteed payment of the senior secured revolving credit facility. The availability of credit under the senior secured credit facility is limited by the terms of the Credit Agreement. As of June 30, 2010, the maximum availability and outstanding balance under the senior secured credit facility was $69.1 million. The proceeds of the senior secured credit facility have been used to fund ongoing costs at our development and operating properties and for general corporate purposes. Our ability to fund our liquidity requirements are expected to come from the cash and cash equivalents on the consolidated balance sheet totaling $5.6 million as of June 30, 2010 and additional amounts that may become available under our senior secured credit facility. As necessary, we may seek alternative sources of financing including using the proceeds from the sale of our properties and temporarily reducing or eliminating our quarterly distribution to achieve our investment objectives.

8


        As of June 30, 2010, restricted cash on the consolidated balance sheet of $7.3 million includes amounts held in lockbox accounts related to Ferncroft Corporate Center of $1.1 million and amounts set aside as interest reserves totaling $3.1 million. The remaining balance of $3.1 million includes amounts set aside related to certain operating properties for tenant improvement and commission reserves, tax reserves, maintenance and capital expenditures reserves, and other amounts as may be required by our lenders.

    Joint Venture Indebtedness

        We have noncontrolling, unconsolidated ownership investments in three properties and one investment in a joint venture consisting of 22 properties. Our effective ownership percentages range from 30% to 50%. We exercise significant influence over, but do not control, these entities and therefore they are presently accounted for using the equity method of accounting. As of June 30, 2010, the aggregate debt held by unrelated parties, including both ours and our partners' share, incurred by these ventures was approximately $147.1 million.

Results of Operations

        As of June 30, 2010, we had invested in 22 assets: 11 consolidated wholly owned properties; five properties consolidated through investments in joint ventures, including two hotel and development properties and a mixed-used property; an investment in an island development accounted for under the equity method; an investment in a portfolio of 22 properties located in four Central European countries accounted for under the equity method; two investments in student housing projects in Texas and Virginia, also accounted for under the equity method; and two mezzanine loans on multifamily properties, which we consolidated prior to January 1, 2010. Our investment properties are located in Arizona, California, Colorado, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Missouri, Nevada, Texas, Virginia, the Commonwealth of The Bahamas, London, England, the Czech Republic, Poland, Hungary, and Slovakia.

        As a result of new accounting guidance regarding the accounting and disclosure requirements for the consolidation of variable interest entities, on January 1, 2010, we deconsolidated the assets and liabilities of Tanglewood at Voss and Alexan Black Mountain along with the associated revenue and expenses.

        Revenues.    Our total revenues decreased by $8.8 million to $15.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010 as compared to $24.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009. The change in revenues is primarily due to:

    a decrease in rental revenue of $3.5 million to $12.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010. The decrease in rental revenue is primarily due to $1.2 million related to the deconsolidation of Tanglewood at Voss and Alexan Black Mountain, a decrease in revenue related to Chase Park Plaza of $1.1 million, a decrease in rental revenue from Ferncroft of $0.8 million, and a decrease in revenue from Becket House of $0.4 million. We expect rental revenue to be flat in 2010 due to slowing lease-up of available space at our operating properties and moderating rental rates on rollover of existing leases in the current weak economy;

10


    hotel revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2010 totaled $0.8 million as compared to $0.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009, and consisted of revenues generated by the operations of The Lodge & Spa at Cordillera. The increase in hotel revenues is primarily due to an increase in occupancy from 22% for 2009 to 50.5% for 2010;

    condominium sales of $2.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010 as compared to $8.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009. We closed on the sale of one condominium unit at The Private Residences at The Chase Park Plaza during the three months ended June 30, 2010. We closed on the sale of 11 condominium units at The Private Residences at The Chase Park Plaza during the three months ended June 30, 2009; and

    interest income from notes receivable of $0.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010 as compared to no interest income from notes receivable for the three months ended June 30, 2009. This increase is due to $0.5 million earned on the Tanglewood at Voss mezzanine loan.

        Property Operating Expenses.    Property operating expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2010 were $5.1 million as compared to $6.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009, and were comprised of operating expenses from our consolidated properties. The decrease in property operating expenses was primarily due to $0.7 million related to reduced service charges on Becket House consistent with reduced occupancy and $0.5 million related to the deconsolidation of the Tanglewood at Voss and Alexan Black Mountain properties (see Note 8 to our consolidated financial statements).

        Cost of Condominium Sales.    Cost of condominium sales, relating to the sale of condominium units at The Private Residences at The Chase Park Plaza, for the three months ended June 30, 2010 were $2.4 million as compared to $8.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009. The decrease is due to the sale of one condominium unit for the three months ended June 30, 2010 as compared to the sales of 11 condominium units for the three months ended June 30, 2009.

        Interest Expense.    Interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2010 was $3.6 million as compared to $4.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009 and was primarily due to the decrease in notes payable balances related to the deconsolidation of Tanglewood at Voss and Alexan Black Mountain (see Note 8 to our consolidated financial statements). Our total notes payable at June 30, 2010 was $352.1 million as compared to $433.2 million at June 30, 2009. Other items contributing to the decrease in interest expense were a decrease on the Becket House note payable of $0.3 million related to a decrease in the average interest rate, offset by an increase of $0.1 million related to a higher weighted average balance on our revolving credit facility.

        Real Estate Taxes.    Real estate taxes, net of amounts capitalized, for the three months ended June 30, 2010 were $1.9 million as compared to $2.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009 and were comprised of real estate taxes from each of our consolidated properties. The decrease in real estate taxes is primarily due to the deconsolidation of the Tanglewood at Voss and Alexan Black Mountain properties. We expect increases in real estate taxes in the future as available space at our operating properties is leased-up.

        Impairment charge.    We did not recognize any impairment charges for the three months ended June 30, 2010. We recognized a $2.7 million non-cash impairment charge for the three months ended June 30, 2009, related to our leasehold interest, Becket House.

        Property Management Fees.    Property management fees for the three months ended June 30, 2010 were $0.5 million as compared to $0.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009 and were comprised of fees incurred by our consolidated properties. We expect increases in property management fees in the future as available space at our operating properties is leased-up.

11


        Asset Management Fees.    Asset management fees for the three months ended June 30, 2010 totaled $1.6 million as compared to $1.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009 and were comprised of fees incurred by our consolidated properties. We expect asset management fees to stabilize in the future.

        General and Administrative Expenses.    General and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2010 totaled $1.3 million, as compared to $1.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009 and were comprised of corporate general and administrative expenses, including directors' and officers' insurance premiums, auditing fees, legal fees and other administrative expenses.

        Depreciation and Amortization Expense.    Depreciation and amortization expense for the three months ended June 30, 2010 was $5.8 million as compared to $7.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009 and was comprised of depreciation and amortization of our consolidated properties. The decrease in depreciation and amortization expense was primarily due to the deconsolidation of the Tanglewood at Voss and Alexan Black Mountain properties (see Note 8 to our consolidated financial statements).

        Revenues.    Our total revenues increased by $13.6 million to $58.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010 as compared to $45 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009. The change in revenues is primarily due to:

    a decrease in rental revenue of $7 million to $24.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010. The decrease in rental revenue is primarily due to $2.3 million related to the deconsolidation of Tanglewood at Voss and Alexan Black Mountain, a decrease in revenue related to Chase Park Plaza of $2.1 million, a decrease in rental revenue from Ferncroft of $1.5 million, and a decrease in revenue from Becket House of $1.2 million. We expect rental

12


      revenue to be flat in 2010 due to slowing lease-up of available space at our operating properties and moderating rental rates on rollover of existing leases in the current weak economy;

    hotel revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2010 totaled $2 million as compared to $1.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009, and consisted of revenues generated by the operations of The Lodge & Spa at Cordillera. The increase in hotel revenues is primarily due to an increase in occupancy from 22% for 2009 to 50.5% for 2010;

    condominium sales of $25.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010 as compared to $11.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009. We closed on the sale of 12 condominium units at an average price of $2.1 million each at The Private Residences at The Chase Park Plaza during the six months ended June 30, 2010. We closed on the sale of 16 condominium units at an average price of $0.7 million each at The Private Residences at The Chase Park Plaza during the six months ended June 30, 2009; and

    interest income from notes receivable of $6.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010 as compared to no interest income from notes receivable for the six months ended June 30, 2009. This increase is primarily due to the $5.5 million of interest received from the Royal Island borrowers and $0.9 million earned on the Tanglewood at Voss mezzanine loan.

        Property Operating Expenses.    Property operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2010 were $11 million as compared to $13.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009, and were comprised of operating expenses from our consolidated properties. The decrease in property operating expenses was primarily due to $0.9 million related to reduced service charges on Becket House consistent with reduced occupancy and $1.1 million related to the deconsolidation of the Tanglewood at Voss and Alexan Black Mountain properties (see Note 8 to our consolidated financial statements).

        Cost of Condominium Sales.    Cost of condominium sales, relating to the sale of condominium units at The Private Residences at The Chase Park Plaza, for the six months ended June 30, 2010 were $25.9 million as compared to $12 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009. We closed on the sale of 12 condominium units at an average cost of $2.1 million each at The Private Residences at The Chase Park Plaza during the six months ended June 30, 2010. We closed on the sale of 16 condominium units at an average cost of $0.7 million each at The Private Residences at The Chase Park Plaza during the six months ended June 30, 2009

        Interest Expense.    Interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2010 was $7.2 million as compared to $8.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and was primarily due to the decrease in notes payable balances related to the deconsolidation of Tanglewood at Voss and Alexan Black Mountain (see Note 8 to our consolidated financial statements). Our total notes payable at June 30, 2010 was $352.1 million as compared to $433.2 million at June 30, 2009. Other items contributing to the decrease in interest expense were a decrease of $0.6 million related to a paydown of $8.7 million on the note payable related to Chase Park Plaza, offset by an increase of $0.3 million on The Private Residences at Chase Park Plaza due to a reduction in interest capitalization as construction of the condominiums is completed.

        Real Estate Taxes.    Real estate taxes, net of amounts capitalized, for the six months ended June 30, 2010 were $3.8 million as compared to $4.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and were comprised of real estate taxes from each of our consolidated properties. The decrease in real estate taxes is primarily due to the deconsolidation of the Tanglewood at Voss and Alexan Black Mountain properties. We expect increases in real estate taxes in the future as available space at our operating properties is leased-up.

        Impairment charge.    We recognized a $4.2 million non-cash impairment charge during the first quarter of 2010 related to our office property, Ferncroft Corporate Center. For the six months ended

13



June 30, 2009, we recognized an impairment charge of $2.7 million related to our lease-hold interest, Becket House.

        Provision for loan losses.    During the first quarter of 2010, we recorded a $7.1 million provision for loan losses to reflect our current estimate of potential loan loss. The provision for loan losses relates to the Alexan Black Mountain mezzanine loan. There were no such provisions or reserves recorded for the first or second quarter of 2009 as we did not consolidate this asset.

        Property Management Fees.    Property management fees for the six months ended June 30, 2010 were $1.1 million as compared to $1.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and were comprised of fees incurred by our consolidated properties. We expect increases in property management fees in the future as available space at our operating properties is leased-up.

        Asset Management Fees.    Asset management fees for the six months ended June 30, 2010 totaled $3.1 million as compared to $2.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and were comprised of fees incurred by our consolidated properties. We expect asset management fees to stabilize in the future.

        General and Administrative Expenses.    General and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2010 were $2.6 million as compared to $3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and were comprised of corporate general and administrative expenses, including directors' and officers' insurance premiums, auditing fees, legal fees and other administrative expenses.

        Depreciation and Amortization Expense.    Depreciation and amortization expense for the six months ended June 30, 2010 was $11.6 million as compared to $15 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and was comprised of depreciation and amortization of our consolidated properties. The decrease in depreciation and amortization expense was primarily due a decrease in depreciation and amortization expense of $1.2 million related to a write-off at Ferncroft, and to $1.6 million related to the deconsolidation of the Tanglewood at Voss and Alexan Black Mountain properties (see Note 8 to our consolidated financial statements).

Cash Flow Analysis

        Cash flows provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2010 were $17.1 million and were comprised primarily of a decrease in condominium inventory of $19.1 million, provision for loan losses of $7.1 million, an impairment charge to our Ferncroft property of $4.2 million, and depreciation and amortization expense of $10.2 million, offset by the net loss of $20.4 million, and an increase in accrued and other liabilities of $3.2 million. Cash flows provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2009 were $5.3 million and were comprised primarily of the net loss of $19.5 million offset by a decrease in condominium inventory of $6 million and depreciation and amortization expense of $12.7 million.

        Cash flows used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2010 were $8 million and primarily represent investment in notes receivable of $3.3 million and capital expenditures for real estate under development of $3.7 million.

facility of $8.6 million and proceeds from notes payable of $16.4 million, offset by payments on notes payable of $11.7 million.

Funds from Operations and Modified Funds from Operations

        Funds from operations ("FFO") is a non-GAAP financial measure that is widely recognized as a measure of REIT operating performance. We use FFO, defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts as net income (loss), computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding extraordinary items, as defined by GAAP, and gains (or losses) from sales of property, plus depreciation and amortization on real estate assets, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships, joint ventures, subsidiaries, and noncontrolling interests as one measure to evaluate our operating performance. In addition to FFO, we use modified funds from operations ("Modified Funds from Operations" or "MFFO"), which excludes from FFO acquisition-related costs, impairment charges and adjustments to fair value for derivatives not qualifying for hedge accounting, to further evaluate our operating performance.

        Historical cost accounting for real estate assets in accordance with GAAP implicitly assumes that the value of real estate diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, many industry investors and analysts have considered the presentation of operating results for real estate companies that use historical cost accounting alone to be insufficient. As a result, our management believes that the use of FFO and MFFO, together with the required GAAP presentations, provide a more complete understanding of our performance.

        We believe that FFO is helpful to investors and our management as a measure of operating performance because it excludes depreciation and amortization, gains and losses from property dispositions, and extraordinary items, and as a result, when compared year over year, reflects the impact on operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, operating costs, general and administrative expenses, and interest costs, which is not immediately apparent from net income. We believe that MFFO is helpful to our investors and our management as a measure of operating performance because it excludes costs that management considers more reflective of investing activities and other non-operating items included in FFO. By providing FFO and MFFO, we present information that assists investors in aligning their analysis with management's analysis of long-term, core operating activities. We believe fluctuations in MFFO are indicative of changes in operating activities and provide comparability in evaluating our performance over time and as compared to other real estate companies that may not have acquisition activities or derivatives or be affected by impairments.

        As explained below, management's evaluation of our operating performance excludes the items considered in the calculation of MFFO based on the following economic considerations:

    Impairment charges and provision for loan losses. An impairment charge represents a downward adjustment to the carrying amount of a long-lived asset to reflect the current valuation of the asset even when the asset is intended to be held long-term. Such adjustment, when properly recognized under GAAP, may lag the underlying consequences related to rental rates, occupancy and other operating performance trends. The valuation is also based, in part, on the impact of current market fluctuations and estimates of future capital requirements and long-term operating performance that may not be directly attributable to current operating performance. As required by GAAP, we evaluate notes receivable for collectability. Provision for loan losses represents a downward adjustment to the carrying amounts of notes receivable in the current period. Because MFFO excludes impairment charges and provision for loan losses, management believes MFFO provides useful supplemental information by focusing on the changes in our operating fundamentals rather than changes that may reflect only anticipated losses.

    Adjustments to fair value for derivatives not qualifying for hedge accounting. Management uses derivatives in the management of our debt and interest rate exposure. We do not intend to

15


      speculate in these interest rate derivatives and accordingly period-to-period changes in derivative valuations are not primary factors in management's decision-making process. We believe by excluding the gains or losses from these derivatives, MFFO provides useful supplemental information on the realized economic impact of the hedges independent of short-term market fluctuations.

    Acquisition-related costs. In evaluating investments in real estate, including both business combinations and investments accounted for under the equity method of accounting, management's investment models and analysis differentiate costs to acquire the investment from the operations derived from the investment. Prior to 2009, acquisition costs for these types of investments were capitalized; however, beginning in 2009 acquisition costs related to business combinations are expensed. We believe by excluding expensed acquisition costs, MFFO provides useful supplemental information that is comparable for each type of our real estate investments and is consistent with management's analysis of the investing and operating performance of our properties.

        FFO or MFFO should not be considered an alternative to net income (loss) or an indication of our liquidity. Neither is indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs, including our ability to make distributions, and each should be reviewed in connection with other GAAP measurements. Our FFO and MFFO may not be comparable to presentations by other REITs.

        Our calculation of FFO and MFFO for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 is presented below (amounts in thousands, except per share amounts):

    Amortization of deferred financing costs of $0.7 million and $1.4 million was recognized as interest expense for mortgages and notes payable for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively; and $0.2 million and $0.4 million was recognized as a reduction of interest income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively. Amortization of deferred financing costs of $0.8 million and $1.6 million was recognized as interest expense for mortgages and notes payable for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009, respectively; and $0.2 million and $0.4 million was recognized as a reduction of interest income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009, respectively.

        In addition, cash flows generated from FFO may be used to fund all or a portion of certain capitalizable items that are excluded from FFO, such as capital expenditures and payments of principal on debt, each of which may impact the amount of cash available for distribution to our stockholders.

        As noted above, we believe FFO and MFFO are helpful to investors and our management as a measure of operating performance. FFO and MFFO are not indicative of our cash available to fund distributions since other uses of cash, such as capital expenditures at our properties and principal payments of debt, are not deducted when calculating FFO and MFFO.

Distributions

        Distributions are authorized at the discretion of our board of directors based on its analysis of our performance over the previous period, expectations of performance for future periods, including actual and anticipated operating cash flow, changes in market capitalization rates for investments suitable for our portfolio, capital expenditure needs, general financial condition, and other factors that our board deems relevant. The board's decision will be influenced, in substantial part, by its obligation to ensure that we maintain our status as a REIT. In light of the pervasive and fundamental disruptions in the global financial and real estate markets, we cannot provide assurance that we will be able to achieve expected cash flows necessary to continue to pay distributions at any particular level, or at all. Our board may determine to reduce our current distribution rate or cease paying distributions in order to conserve cash.

        Cash amounts distributed to stockholders during the six months ended June 30, 2010 was $1.8 million. For the six months ended June 30, 2010, cash flows provided by operating activities was $16.5 million. Accordingly, for the six months ended June 30, 2010, cash flow from operations exceeded cash amounts distributed to stockholders by $14.7 million. Cash amounts distributed to stockholders during the six months ended June 30, 2009 were $1.4 million. For the six months ended June 30, 2009,

17



cash flows provided by operating activities were $5.3 million. Accordingly, for the six months ended June 30, 2009, cash flow from operations exceeded cash amounts distributed to stockholders by $3.9 million.

        The following are the distributions paid and declared for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009.

        On April 2, 2009, our Board of Directors voted to declare dividends on a quarterly basis rather than a monthly basis, thus generating significant administrative cost savings to our shareholders, and to determine and pay future distributions in arrears rather than in advance of the period to which they apply. On July 19, 2010, our Board of Directors authorized a quarterly distribution in the amount of $0.025 per share of common stock, which is equivalent to an annual distribution of 1% assuming a $10 price per share. The distribution is payable to the common stockholders of record at the close of business on June 30, 2010. The distribution was paid on August 10, 2010.

        Operating performance cannot be accurately predicted due to numerous factors, including the financial performance of our investments in the current real estate environment, the types and mix of investments in our portfolio and the accounting treatment of our investments in accordance with our accounting policies. As a result, future distributions declared and paid may continue to exceed cash flow from operating activities.

Share Redemption Plan

        Our board of directors has authorized a share redemption program for stockholders who have held their shares for more than one year. On March 30, 2009, our board of directors suspended, until further notice, redemptions other than those submitted in respect of a stockholder's death, disability or confinement to a long-term care facility. On May 11, 2009 and November 9, 2009, our board of directors approved certain amendments to the program related to the per share redemption price. In the second quarter ended June 30, 2010, we redeemed 52,899 shares of common stock.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

        Management's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires our management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We evaluate these estimates, including investment impairment, on a regular basis. These estimates will be based on management's historical industry experience and on

18



various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

        Below is a discussion of the accounting policies that we consider will be critical in that they may require complex judgment in their application or require estimates about matters that are inherently uncertain.

    Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation

        Our consolidated financial statements include our accounts and the accounts of other subsidiaries over which we have control. All inter-company transactions, balances, and profits have been eliminated in consolidation. Interests in entities acquired will be evaluated based on applicable GAAP, which includes the requirement to consolidate entities deemed to be variable interest entities ("VIE") in which we are the primary beneficiary. If the interest in the entity is determined not to be a VIE, then the entities will be evaluated for consolidation based on legal form, economic substance, and the extent to which we have control and/or substantive participating rights under the respective ownership agreement.

        There are judgments and estimates involved in determining if an entity in which we have made an investment is a VIE and, if so, whether we are the primary beneficiary. The entity is evaluated to determine if it is a VIE by, among other things, calculating the percentage of equity being risked compared to the total equity of the entity. Determining expected future losses involves assumptions of various possibilities of the results of future operations of the entity, assigning a probability to each possibility and using a discount rate to determine the net present value of those future losses. A change in the judgments, assumptions, and estimates outlined above could result in consolidating an entity that should not be consolidated or accounting for an investment using the equity method that should in fact be consolidated, the effects of which could be material to our financial statements.

    Real Estate

        Upon the acquisition of real estate properties, we recognize the assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest as of the acquisition date, measured at their fair values. The acquisition date is the date on which we obtain control of the real estate property. These assets acquired and liabilities assumed may consist of buildings, any assumed debt, identified intangible assets and asset retirement obligations. Identified intangible assets generally consist of the above-market and below-market leases, in-place leases, in-place tenant improvements and tenant relationships. Goodwill is recognized as of the acquisition date and measured as the aggregate fair value of the consideration transferred and any noncontrolling interests in the acquiree over the fair value of identifiable net assets acquired. Likewise, a bargain purchase gain is recognized in current earnings when the aggregate fair value of the consideration transferred and any noncontrolling interests in the acquiree is less than the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired. Acquisition-related costs are expensed in the period incurred.

        Initial valuations are subject to change until our information is finalized, which is no later than twelve months from the acquisition date.

        The fair value of any tangible assets acquired, expected to consist of land, land improvements, buildings, building improvements, and furniture, fixtures and equipment, is determined by valuing the property as if it were vacant, and the "as-if-vacant" value is then allocated to the tangible assets. Land values are derived from appraisals, and building and land improvements values are calculated as replacement cost less depreciation or management's estimates of the relative fair value of these assets using discounted cash flow analyses or similar methods. Furniture, fixtures, and equipment values are determined based on current reproduction or replacement cost less depreciation and other estimated allowances based on physical, functional, or economic factors. The value of buildings is depreciated

19



over the estimated useful lives ranging from 25 years for commercial office property to 39 years for hotel/mixed-use property using the straight-line method. Land improvements are depreciated over the estimated useful life of 15 years, and furniture, fixtures, and equipment are depreciated over estimated useful lives ranging from five to seven years using the straight-line method.

        We determine the value of above-market and below-market in-place leases for acquired properties based on the present value (using an interest rate that reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) of the difference between (i) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to the in-place leases and (ii) management's estimate of current market lease rates for the corresponding in-place leases, measured over a period equal to (a) the remaining noncancelable lease term for above-market leases, or (b) the remaining noncancelable lease term plus any fixed rate renewal options for below-market leases. We record the fair value of above-market and below-market leases as intangible assets or intangible liabilities, respectively, and amortize them as an adjustment to rental income over the determined lease term.

        The total value of identified real estate intangible assets that we may acquire in the future is further allocated to in-place lease values and tenant relationships based on our evaluation of the specific characteristics of each tenant's lease and our overall relationship with that respective tenant. The aggregate value of in-place leases acquired and tenant relationships is determined by applying a fair value model. The estimates of fair value of in-place leases include an estimate of carrying costs during the expected lease-up periods for the respective spaces considering current market conditions. In estimating fair value of in-place leases, we consider items such as real estate taxes, insurance and other operating expenses as well as lost rental revenue during the expected lease-up period and carrying costs that would have otherwise been incurred had the leases not been in place, including tenant improvements and commissions. The estimates of the fair value of tenant relationships also include costs to execute similar leases including leasing commissions, legal costs and tenant improvements as well as an estimate of the likelihood of renewal as determined by management on a tenant-by-tenant basis.

        We amortize the value of in-place leases acquired in the future to expense over the term of the respective leases. The value of tenant relationship intangibles is amortized to expense over the initial term and any anticipated renewal periods, but in no event does the amortization period for intangible assets exceed the remaining depreciable life of the building. Should a tenant terminate their lease, the unamortized portion of the in-place lease value and tenant relationship intangibles would be charged to expense.

        Other intangible assets include the value of identified hotel trade names and in-place property tax abatements. These fair values are based on management's estimates of the relative fair value of these assets using discounted cash flow analyses or similar methods. The value of the trade names is amortized over its respective estimated useful life of 20 years using the straight-line method and the value of the in-place property tax abatement is amortized over its estimated term of 10 years using the straight-line method.

        We determine the fair value of assumed debt by calculating the net present value of the scheduled mortgage payments using interest rates for debt with similar terms and remaining maturities that management believes we could obtain. Any difference between the fair value and stated value of the assumed debt is recorded as a discount or premium and amortized over the remaining life of the loan.

    Investment Impairments

        For real estate we wholly own, we monitor events and changes in circumstances indicating that the carrying amounts of the real estate assets may not be recoverable. When such events or changes in circumstances are present, we assess potential impairment by comparing estimated future undiscounted operating cash flows expected to be generated over the life of the asset and from its eventual

20


disposition to the carrying amount of the asset. In the event that the carrying amount exceeds the estimated future undiscounted operating cash flows, we recognize an impairment loss to adjust the carrying amount of the asset to estimated fair value. We consider projected future undiscounted cash flows, trends, strategic decisions regarding future development plans, and other factors in our assessment of whether impairment conditions exist. While we believe our estimates of future cash flows are reasonable, different assumptions regarding such factors as market rents, economies, and occupancies could significantly affect these estimates.

        In the first quarter of 2010, we evaluated Ferncroft Corporate Center for impairment, and accordingly, recognized a $4.2 million impairment charge for the three months ended March 31, 2010. No impairment charges were recognized in the second quarter of 2010.

        We also evaluate our investments in unconsolidated joint ventures at each reporting date and if we believe there is an other than temporary decline in market value we will record an impairment charge based on these evaluations. We assess potential impairment by comparing our portion of estimated future undiscounted operating cash flows expected to be generated by the joint venture over the life of the joint venture's assets to the carrying amount of the joint venture. In the event that the carrying amount exceeds our portion of estimated future undiscounted operating cash flows, we recognize an impairment loss to adjust the carrying amount of the joint venture to its estimated fair value.

        We also evaluate our investments in notes receivable as of each reporting date. If we believe that it is probable we will not collect all principal and interest in accordance with the terms of the loans, we consider the loan impaired. When evaluating loans for potential impairment, we compare the carrying amount of the loans to the present value of future cash flows discounted at the loan's effective interest rate, or, if a loan is collateral dependent, to the estimated fair value of the related collateral net of any senior loans. For impaired loans, a provision is made for loan losses to adjust the reserve for loan losses. The reserve for loan losses is a valuation allowance that reflects our current estimate of loan losses as of the balance sheet date. The reserve is adjusted through the provision for loan losses account on our consolidated statement of operations.

        In the first quarter of 2010, we recorded a reserve for loan losses totaling $11.1 million related to the mezzanine loan associated with Alexan Black Mountain, including $7.1 million recognized as a provision to loan losses on our consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss, for the three months ended March 31, 2010, and the remaining $4 million as a cumulative effect adjustment to the opening balance of accumulated distributions and net loss in our consolidated statement of equity for the six months ended June 30, 2010. There was no such provision or reserve recorded for the three months ended June 30, 2010.

        In evaluating our investments for impairment, management may use appraisals and make estimates and assumptions, including, but not limited to, the projected date of disposition of the properties, the estimated future cash flows of the properties during our ownership, and the projected sales price of each of the properties. A change in these estimates and assumptions could result in understating or overstating the book value of our investments, which could be material to our financial statements. The value of our properties held for development depends on market conditions, including estimates of the project start date as well as estimates of future demand for the property type under development. We have analyzed trends and other information related to each potential development and incorporated this information as well as our current outlook into the assumptions we use in our impairment analyses. Due to the judgment and assumptions applied in the estimation process with respect to impairments, including the fact that limited market information regarding the value of comparable land exists at this time, it is possible actual results could differ substantially from those estimated.

        Other than the impairment charge discussed above, we believe the carrying value of our operating real estate assets, properties under development, investments in unconsolidated joint ventures, and notes receivable is currently recoverable. However, if market conditions worsen beyond our current

21



expectations, or if our assumptions regarding expected future cash flows from the use and eventual disposition of our assets decrease or our expected hold periods decrease, or if changes in our development strategy significantly affect any key assumptions used in our fair value calculations, we may need to take additional charges in future periods for impairments related to existing assets. Any such non-cash charges would have an adverse effect on our consolidated financial position and results of operations.
