Duke Realty Corporation Share Repurchase Plan.

 

In January 2000, the Company adopted a share repurchase plan authorizing the Company to repurchase up to $100 million of shares of the Company’s common stock.  In October 2001, the Company increased the maximum expenditure authority under the share repurchase plan from $100 million to $250 million.  To date, the Company has repurchased 20,000 shares of its common stock at an average price of $21.80 per share, for a total expenditure of approximately $436,000.

 

Under the share repurchase plan, the Company may effect share repurchases from time to time in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions at management’s discretion.  The timing and amount of share repurchases, if any, will depend on business and market conditions, as well as legal and regulatory considerations.  The Company can give no assurances as to when or whether it will repurchase any shares.
