On September 1, 2004, the Registrant completed the acquisition of 17 properties
from Carey Institutional Properties Incorporated ("CIP(R)"). The purchase price

summary of the properties follows below. The price paid for the properties was
based on an appraisal performed by an independent third party appraiser.
The acquisition was made in connection with acquisition of CIP(R)'s remaining

("CPA(R):15"), constituting 82 properties located in 28 states, totaling
approximately 7.6 million square feet, for approximately $571 million in cash,
stock and assumption of debt. These properties have lease terms that average 12
years.
CIP(R) and CPA(R):15 are each managed by the Registrant. In connection with the
acquisition of the properties by the Registrant and the acquisition by CPA(R):15
of the other CIP(R) properties, the Registrant will receive approximately $47.3
million in disposition and other management fees payable by CIP(R), including
approximately $1 million in accrued fees attributable to normal operations
unrelated to the above described transactions and payable at the time of the
