BUSINESS General Koger Equity, Inc. ("KE") is a self-administered and self-managed equity real estate investment trust (a "REIT") which develops, owns, operates and manages suburban office buildings (the "Office Buildings") primarily located in 12 office centers (each a "Koger Center") located in eight metropolitan areas throughout the southeastern United States. As of December 31, 2001, KE owns 120 Office Buildings, of which 118 are in Koger Centers and two are outside Koger Centers but in metropolitan areas where Koger Centers are located. Koger-Vanguard Partners, L.P. ("KVP") is a limited partnership, for which KE is the general partner, which owns suburban office buildings located in a Koger Center. As of December 31, 2001, KVP owns 13 Office Buildings. The Office Buildings contain approximately 6.9 million rentable square feet and were on average 90 percent leased as of December 31, 2001. While KE expects to continue the development of suburban office properties for its own account, it may from time to time acquire developed properties compatible with its properties in other markets primarily in the Southeast if such acquisitions can be made on terms favorable to KE. During December 2001, KE sold 75 suburban office buildings and one retail center, containing more than 3.9 million rentable square feet, located throughout San Antonio and Austin, Texas; Greensboro and Charlotte, North Carolina; Greenville, South Carolina; and Birmingham, Alabama. These properties were sold to AP-Knight, LP ("AP-Knight"), an affiliate of Apollo Real Estate Investment Fund ("Apollo"). KE owns approximately 78 acres of unencumbered land held for development and approximately one acre of unencumbered land held for sale. A majority of the land held for development adjoins Office Buildings in four Koger Centers, which have infrastructure, including roads and utilities, in place. The remaining land held for development adjoins properties which were sold during 2001. KE intends over time to develop and construct office buildings using this land and to acquire additional land for development. In addition, KE provides leasing, management and other customary tenant-related services for the Koger Centers. In addition to managing its own properties, KE provides property and asset management services through its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Southeast Properties Holding Corporation ("Southeast"), Koger Real Estate Services, Inc. ("KRES") and Koger Realty Services, Inc. ("KRSI") for office buildings owned by unaffiliated parties (KE, KVP, Southeast , KRES and KRSI are hereafter referred to as the "Company"). Through August 2001, KRSI provided property management services to Koala Realty Holding Company, Inc. ("Koala") for 55 office properties. On December 12, 2001, KRSI began providing property management services to the properties sold to AP-Knight. The Company currently provides asset management services to Crocker Realty Trust for office properties containing approximately 4.6 million square feet. KE operates in a manner so as to qualify as a REIT under the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). As a REIT, the Company will not, with certain limited exceptions, be taxed at the corporate level on taxable income distributed to its shareholders on a current basis. The Company distributes at least 90 percent of its annual REIT taxable income (which term is used herein as defined and modified in the Code) to its shareholders. To qualify as a REIT, a corporation must meet certain substantive tests: (a) at least 95 percent of its gross income must be derived from certain passive and real estate sources; (b) at least 75 percent of its gross income must be derived from certain real estate sources; (c) at the close of each calendar quarter, it must meet certain tests designed to ensure that its assets consist principally (at least 75 percent by value) of real estate assets, cash and cash equivalents and that its holdings of securities are adequately diversified; (d) each year, it must distribute at least 90 percent of its REIT taxable income; and (e) at no time during the second half of any calendar year may the Company be "closely held" (i.e., have more than 50 percent in value of its outstanding stock owned, directly, indirectly or constructively, by not more than five individuals). The constructive ownership rules, among other things, treat the shareholders of a corporation as owning proportionately any stock in another corporation owned by the first corporation. Management fee revenue does not qualify as real estate or passive income for purposes of determining whether the Company has met the REIT requirements that at least 95 percent of the Company's gross income be derived from certain real estate and passive sources and that at least 75 percent of its gross income be derived from certain real estate sources. Accordingly, in the event the Company derives income in excess of five percent from management and other "non-real estate" and "non-passive" activities, the Company would no longer qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes and would be required to pay federal income taxes as a business corporation. The income earned by KRSI is not included in determining KE's qualification as a REIT. 3 Two major governmental tenants, when all of their respective departments and agencies which lease space in the Company's buildings are combined, lease more than 10 percent of the rentable area of the Company's buildings and contribute more than 10 percent of the Company's annualized rentals as of December 31, 2001. At that date, the United States of America leased 13 percent of the Company's rentable square feet and accounted for an aggregate of 15.7 percent of the Company's annualized rents. In addition, the State of Florida leased 11.1 percent of the Company's rentable square feet and accounted for 13.5 percent of the Company's annualized rents. Some of the Company's principal tenants are the United States of America, the State of Florida, Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Florida, Landstar System Holdings, Wellspring Resources, Siemens Westinghouse, Zurich Insurance, General Electric, Hoechst Celanese Corp. and Hanover Insurance. Governmental tenants (including the State of Florida and the United States of America), which account for 27.3 percent of the Company's leased space, may be subject to budget reductions in times of recession and governmental austerity measures. There can be no assurance that governmental appropriations for rents may not be reduced. Additionally, certain private-sector tenants, which have contributed to the Company's rent stream, may reduce their current demands, or curtail their future need, for additional office space. Competition The Company competes in the leasing of office space with a considerable number of other realty concerns, including local, regional and national, some of which have greater resources than the Company. Through its ownership and management of suburban office parks, the Company seeks to attract tenants by offering office space convenient to residential areas. In recent years local, regional and national concerns have built competing office parks and single buildings in suburban areas in which the Company's Office Buildings are located. In addition, the Company competes for tenants with large high-rise office buildings generally located in the downtown business districts of these metropolitan areas. Although competition from other lessors of office space varies from city to city, the Company has been able to attain and maintain what it considers satisfactory occupancy levels at satisfactory rental rates. Investment Policies The Company is currently in a position to capitalize on some of its strengths, such as the value of its franchise in the suburban office park market and its operating systems, development expertise, acquisition expertise and unimproved land available for development. The Company intends to continue to develop and construct office buildings primarily using its existing inventory of 78 acres of land held for development, most of which is partially or wholly improved with streets and/or utilities and is located in various metropolitan areas where the Company currently operates or manages suburban office parks. The Company may also acquire existing office buildings or additional land for development in other markets primarily in the Southeast that the Company 0considers favorable. Although all of the Company's properties are located in the Southeast, management does not consider that the Company's development and acquisitions activities are limited to any particular area. The Company may also sell Office Buildings or Koger Centers located in certain markets. In addition, the Company has adopted a plan to repurchase up to 2.65 million shares of its common stock. The investment policies of the Company may be changed by its directors at any time without notice to, or a vote of, shareholders. Although the Company has no fixed policy which limits the percentage of its assets which may be invested in any one type of investment or the geographic areas in which the Company may acquire properties, the Company intends to continue to operate so as to qualify for tax treatment as a REIT. The Company may in the future invest in other types of office buildings, apartment buildings, shopping centers, and other properties. The Company also may invest in the securities (including mortgages) of companies primarily engaged in real estate activities; however, it does not intend to become an investment company regulated under the Investment Company Act of 1940. 4 For the year ended December 31, 2001, all of the Company's rental revenues were derived from buildings purchased or constructed by the Company. The Company's 2001 interest revenues were derived from temporary cash investments and notes receivable from current and former employees. Employees The Company has a combined financial, administrative, leasing, and center maintenance staff of 180 employees. A resident manager is responsible for the leasing and operations of all buildings in a Koger Center or metropolitan area. The Company has approximately 63 employees who perform maintenance activities. Item 2. PROPERTIES General As of December 31, 2001, the Company owned 120 Office Buildings located in the eight metropolitan areas of Jacksonville, Orlando, St. Petersburg, and Tallahassee, Florida; Atlanta, Georgia; Charlotte, North Carolina; Memphis, Tennessee; and Richmond, Virginia. The Koger Centers have been developed in campus-like settings with extensive landscaping and ample tenant parking. The Office Buildings are generally one to five-story structures of contemporary design and constructed of masonry, concrete and steel, with facings of brick, concrete and glass. The Koger Centers are generally located with easy access, via expressways, to the central business district and to shopping and residential areas in the respective communities. The properties are well maintained and adequately covered by insurance. Leases on the Office Buildings vary between net leases (under which the tenant pays some operating expenses, such as utilities, insurance and repairs) and gross leases (under which the Company pays all such items). Most leases are on a gross basis and are for terms generally ranging from three to five years. In some instances, such as when a tenant rents the entire building, leases are for terms of up to 20 years. As of December 31, 2001, the Office Buildings were on average 90 percent leased and the average annual rent per rentable square foot leased was $16.71. The buildings are occupied by numerous tenants (approximately 896 leases), many of whom lease relatively small amounts of space, conducting a broad range of commercial activities. New leases and renewals of existing leases are negotiated at the current market rate at the date of execution. The Company endeavors to include escalation provisions in all of its gross leases. As of December 31, 2001, approximately four percent of the Company's annualized gross rental revenues were derived from existing leases containing rental escalation provisions based upon changes in the Consumer Price Index (some of which contain maximum rates of increases); approximately 93 percent of such revenues were derived from leases containing escalation provisions based upon fixed steps or real estate tax and operating expense increases; and approximately three percent of such revenues were derived from leases without escalation provisions. Some of the Company's leases contain options which allow the lessee to renew for varying periods, generally at the same rental rate and subject, in most instances, to Consumer Price Index escalation provisions. The Company owns approximately 85 acres of unimproved land (78 acres held for development, one acre held for sale and six acres not suitable for development) located in the metropolitan areas of Birmingham, Alabama; Orlando and St. Petersburg, Florida; Atlanta, Georgia; Charlotte and Greensboro, North Carolina; and Columbia and Greenville, South Carolina. Each of these parcels of land has been partially or wholly developed with streets and/or utilities. 5 Property Location and Other Information The following table sets forth information relating to the properties owned by the Company as of December 31, 2001.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the selected financial data and the consolidated financial statements (the "Consolidated Financial Statements") appearing elsewhere in this report. Historical results and percentage relationships in the Consolidated Financial Statements, including trends which might appear, should not be taken as indicative of future operations or financial position. The Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of KE, Southeast, KRES, KRSI and KVP (collectively, the "Company"). GENERAL The Company has prepared, and is responsible for, the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements and the related consolidated financial information included in this report. Such Consolidated Financial Statements were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") and include amounts determined using management's best judgments and estimates of the expected effects of events and transactions that are being accounted for currently. The Company's independent auditors have audited the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements. The objective of their audit, conducted in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, was to express an opinion on the fairness of presentation, in all material respects, of the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations, and cash flows in conformity with GAAP. They evaluated the Company's internal control structure to the extent considered necessary by them to determine the audit procedures required to support their report on the Consolidated Financial Statements and not to provide assurance on such structure. The Company maintains accounting and other control systems which management believes provide reasonable assurance that the Company's assets are safeguarded and that the Company's books and records reflect the authorized transactions of the Company, although there are inherent limitations in any internal control structure, as well as cost versus benefit considerations. The Audit Committee of the Company's Board of Directors, which is composed exclusively of directors who are not officers of the Company, directs matters relating to audit functions, annually appoints the auditors subject to ratification of the Company's Board of Directors, reviews the auditors' independence, reviews the scope and results of the annual audit, and periodically reviews the adequacy of the Company's internal control structure with its external auditors, its internal auditors and its senior management. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Rental Revenues. Rental revenues increased $848,000 or 0.5 percent from the year ended December 31, 2000 to the year ended December 31, 2001. This increase resulted primarily from (i) the increase in the Company's average rental rate and (ii) increases in rental revenues ($7,308,000) from seven buildings constructed by the Company. The effect of these increases was partially offset by (i) the reduction of rental revenues ($5,949,000) caused by the sale of two office parks during 2000 and 75 office buildings and one retail center on December 12, 2001 (the "2001 Property Sale") and (ii) the decline in occupancy in the stabilized properties owned at December 31, 2001. For 2000, rental revenues increased $8,365,000 or 5.4 percent from the year ended December 31, 1999. This increase resulted primarily from (i) the increase in the Company's average rental rate and (ii) increases in rental revenues ($15,364,000) from properties acquired and construction completed during 1999 and 2000. The effect of these increases was partially offset by the reduction of rental revenues ($13,497,000) caused by the sale of two office parks during 1999 and two office parks during 2000. As of December 31, 2001, the Company's buildings were on average 90 percent leased. As of December 31, 2000 and 1999, the buildings owned by the Company were on average 90 and 93 percent leased, respectively. Management Fee Revenues. For 2001, management fee revenues increased $2,287,000, as compared to 2000. This increase was due primarily to (i) the merger of Koger Realty Services, Inc. into a wholly owned taxable subsidiary of the Company on February 1, 2001 (the "Merger") and (ii) the increase in asset management fees ($156,000) earned from Crocker Realty Trust. These increases were partially offset by reductions in (i) fees earned under the management contract with Centoff Realty Company, Inc. ("Centoff"), a subsidiary of Morgan Guaranty Trust Company of New York and (ii) construction management fees. Management fee revenues decreased $591,000 for 2000, as compared to 1999, due primarily to a decrease in fees earned under the Centoff management contract. On January 1, 2000, the management contract for one of the Centoff centers was transferred from KE to Koger Realty Services, Inc. During November 2000, the management contract for the remaining Centoff center was terminated when the property was sold by the third party owner. The effect of these decreases was partially offset by the asset management fees ($296,000) earned from Crocker Realty Trust during 2000. 12 Income from Koger Realty Services, Inc. Income from Koger Realty Services, Inc. decreased $564,000 for 2001, as compared to 2000, due to the Merger. For 2000, income from Koger Realty Services, Inc. decreased $454,000, as compared to 1999, due primarily to an increase in general and administrative expenses. Interest Revenues. For 2001, interest revenues increased $73,000, as compared to 2000, due to the higher average balance of cash to invest. Interest revenues increased $246,000 for 2000, as compared to 1999, due to the interest earned from loans to certain current and former employees. Expenses. Property operations expense includes such charges as utilities, real estate taxes, janitorial, maintenance, property insurance, provision for uncollectible rents and management costs. During 2001, property operations expense decreased $260,000 or 0.4 percent, compared to 2000, primarily due to the reduction of property operations expense ($3,365,000) caused by the sale of two office parks during 2000 and the 2001 Property Sale. Most of this decrease was offset by (i) the increases in property operations expense ($1,870,000) from seven buildings constructed by the Company and (ii) increased accruals to provision for uncollectible accounts. During 2000, property operations expense increased by $1,286,000 or 2.1 percent, compared to 1999, primarily due to (i) increases in property operations expense ($5,662,000) for properties acquired and construction completed during 1999 and 2000 and (ii) increases in real estate taxes. These increases were partially offset by the decrease in property operations expense ($5,847,000) for the properties sold during 1999 and 2000. For 2001, 2000 and 1999, property operations expense as a percentage of total rental revenues was 37.2 percent, 37.6 percent and 38.8 percent, respectively. Depreciation expense has been calculated on the straight-line method based upon the useful lives of the Company's depreciable assets, generally 3 to 40 years. For 2001, depreciation expense increased $605,000 or 1.9 percent, compared to 2000, due to the construction completed during 2000 and 2001. The effect of this increase was partially offset by the sale of two office parks during 2000 and the 2001 Property Sale. For 2000, depreciation expense increased $2,976,000 or 10.2 percent, compared to the prior year, due to the properties acquired and construction completed during 1999 and 2000. Amortization expense increased $269,000, compared to 2000, due to deferred tenant costs incurred during 2000 and 2001. During 2000, amortization expense decreased $157,000, compared to 1999, due to deferred tenant costs associated with properties sold during 1999 and 2000. Interest expense decreased $2,064,000 during 2001, compared to 2000, primarily due to (i) the decrease in the average balance of mortgages and loans payable and (ii) the decrease in the average interest rate on the Company's variable rate loans. For 2000, interest expense increased $5,375,000, compared to 1999, primarily due to (i) the increase in the average balance of mortgages and loans payable, (ii) the reduction in interest capitalized to construction and (iii) the increase in the average interest rate on the Company's variable rate loans. During 2001, 2000, and 1999, the weighted average interest rate on the Company's variable rate loans was 5.7 percent, 7.9 percent and 6.7 percent, respectively. The Company's average outstanding amount under such loans during 2001, 2000, and 1999 was $90,009,000, $96,262,000, and $95,277,000, respectively. During 2001, 2000, and 1999, the weighted average interest rate on the Company's fixed rate loans was 8.0 percent, 8.0 percent and 8.2 percent, respectively. The Company's average outstanding amount under its fixed rate loans during 2001, 2000, and 1999 was $250,373,000, $255,439,000, and $225,391,000, respectively. 13 For 2001, general and administrative expenses decreased $11,805,000, compared to 2000, primarily due to certain non-recurring charges incurred during 2000, which are described below. General and administrative expenses increased by $11,584,000 during 2000, compared to 1999. This increase is primarily due to certain non-recurring charges for (i) corporate reorganization costs ($8,767,000), (ii) severance payments made to certain former senior executives ($2,562,000), (iii) changes in termination benefits under the Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan ($704,000), (iv) payments to retiring directors ($138,000) and (v) initial fees for listing on the New York Stock Exchange ($161,000). Direct costs of management fees increased $2,480,000 during 2001, compared to 2000, primarily due to the Merger. The effect of this increase was partially offset by declines in costs due to (i) termination of the Centoff management contract and (ii) reduction in construction management services provided to third parties. For 2000, direct cost of management fees decreased $534,000, compared to 1999, due to decreased costs associated with providing property management services under the Centoff contract. Other expenses decreased $28,000 during 2001, compared to 2000, primarily due to the reduction in real estate taxes on unimproved land caused by the reduction in acres held for investment and held for sale. During 2000, other expenses decreased $926,000, compared to 1999, primarily due to (i) the reduction in costs for certain corporate strategic issues and (ii) the reduction in real estate taxes on unimproved land due to the reduction in acres held for investment and held for sale. Management periodically reviews its investment in properties for evidence of impairments in value. Factors considered consist of, but are not limited to, the following: current and projected occupancy rates, market conditions in different geographic regions, and management's plans with respect to its properties. Where management concludes that expected cash flows will not enable the Company to recover the carrying amount of its investments, losses are recorded and asset values are reduced. No such impairments in value existed during 2001, 2000 or 1999. Operating Results. Net income totaled $73,223,000, $27,153,000 and $36,586,000 for 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively. For 2001, net income increased $46,070,000 or 169.7 percent from the prior year due primarily to (i) the increase in gain on sale or disposition of assets and (ii) the decreases in mortgage and loan interest and general and administrative expenses. For 2000, net income decreased $9,433,000 or 25.8 percent from the prior year due primarily to increases in (i) general and administrative expenses due to corporate reorganization costs and other non-recurring charges, (ii) property operations expense, (iii) depreciation expense and (iv) interest expense. The effect of these increases was partially offset by increases in (i) rental revenues and (ii) gain on sale or disposition of assets. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES Operating Activities. During the year ended December 31, 2001, the Company generated approximately $64 million in net cash from operating activities. The Company's primary internal sources of cash are (i) the collection of rents from buildings owned by the Company and (ii) the receipt of management fees paid to the Company in respect of properties managed on behalf of third party owners. As a REIT for Federal income tax purposes, the Company is required to pay out annually, as dividends, 90 percent of its REIT taxable income (which, due to non-cash charges, including depreciation and net operating loss carryforwards, may be substantially less than cash flow). In the past, the Company has paid out dividends in amounts at least equal to its REIT taxable income. The Company believes that its cash provided by operating activities and its current cash balance will be sufficient to cover debt service payments and to pay the dividends required to maintain REIT status through 2002. The level of cash flow generated by rents depends primarily on the occupancy rates of the Company's buildings and changes in rental rates on new and renewed leases and under escalation provisions. As of December 31, 2001, approximately 97 percent of the Company's annualized gross rental revenues were derived from existing leases containing provisions for rent escalations. However, market conditions may prevent the Company from escalating rents under such provisions. 14 As of December 31, 2001, leases representing approximately 21 percent of the gross annualized rent from the Company's properties, without regard to the exercise of options to renew, were due to expire during 2002. This represents 290 leases for space in buildings located in 13 of the 14 Koger Centers or locations in which the Company owns buildings. Certain of these tenants may not renew their leases or may reduce their demand for space. Leases were renewed on approximately 66 percent, 61 percent and 66 percent of the Company's rentable square feet, which were scheduled to expire during 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively. For those leases, which renewed during 2001, the average rental rate increased from $15.00 to $15.80, an increase of 5.3 percent. For those leases in properties owned by the Company at December 31, 2001, which renewed during 2001, the average rental rate increased from $14.61 to $15.33, an increase of 4.9 percent. However, for leases in these properties which renewed during the fourth quarter of 2001, the average rental rate increased 2.9 percent. Current market conditions in certain markets may require that rental rates at which leases are renewed or at which vacated space is leased be lower than rental rates under existing leases. Based upon the amount of leases which will expire during 2002 and the competition for tenants in the markets in which the Company operates, the Company has offered, and expects to continue to offer, incentives to certain new and renewal tenants. These incentives may include the payment of tenant improvement costs and, in certain markets, reduced rents during initial lease periods. The Company has benefited from existing economic conditions and stable vacancy levels for office buildings in many of the metropolitan areas in which the Company owns buildings. The Company believes that the southeastern region of the United States provides significant economic growth potential due to its diverse regional economies, expanding metropolitan areas, skilled work force and moderate labor costs. However, the Company cannot predict whether such economic growth will continue and the Company is currently experiencing slower growth and increasing vacancy levels in the markets in which it owns buildings. Cash flow from operations could be reduced if economic growth were not to continue in the Company's markets and if this resulted in lower occupancy rates for the Company's buildings. For the properties owned on December 31, 2001, occupancy was 90 percent at December 31, 2001 compared with 91.4 percent at December 31, 2000. Governmental tenants (including the State of Florida and the United States of America), which accounted for 27.3 percent of the Company's leased space as of December 31, 2001, may be subject to budget reductions in times of recession and governmental austerity measures. Consequently, there can be no assurance that governmental appropriations for rents may not be reduced. Additionally, certain of the private-sector tenants, which have contributed to the Company's rent stream, may reduce their current demands, or curtail their future need, for additional office space. On December 12, 2001, the Company began providing property management services to AP-Knight for 75 suburban office buildings and one retail center. AP-Knight acquired these properties from the Company. The Company agreed to continue to manage these properties for what it considers to be standard property management fees. This agreement is terminable by either party upon 30 days written notice. From February 1, 2001 through August 31, 2001, the Company provided property management services for 55 commercial office properties owned by Koala. During this period, the Company earned fees of $3,499,000 for the management of these properties. The Company had a contract for the management of eight commercial office properties owned by Centoff. This agreement was terminated during November 2000 when the properties were sold by Centoff. The Company earned fees of $998,000 and $846,000 for the management of these properties during 2000 and 1999, respectively. At the end of 1999, Centoff terminated the management agreement with KE related to eight commercial office buildings. The Company earned fees of $780,000 for the management and leasing of these properties during 1999. Another agreement to manage one commercial office building was terminated by the Company during February 1999. During 1999, the Company earned fees of $82,000 for the management of this building. During 2000, the Company reached an agreement with Crocker Realty Trust ("CRT") to provide asset management services for the 6.1 million square foot portfolio of CRT of which Mr. Crocker is the Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer owning 2.8 percent of the outstanding CRT shares, Mr. Onisko is the Treasurer and Chief Financial Officer owning 0.2 percent of the outstanding shares and Apollo is a principal shareholder owning 49 percent of the outstanding CRT shares. The Company is paid a fee for these services based upon the value of CRT's assets. The agreement is terminable by either party upon 90 days written notice. The terms of this agreement were approved by a committee of the Company's Board of Directors whose members were not affiliated with CRT, and who determined that such terms were similar to those that could be obtained from an unaffiliated third party. The Company earned fees of $296,000 under this agreement during the period from June 15, 2000 through December 31, 2000. During 2001, the Company earned fees of $452,000 under this agreement. Currently, the Company provides asset management services for 4.6 million square feet owned by CRT. 15 Investing Activities. At December 31, 2001, substantially all of the Company's invested assets were in real properties. Improvements to the Company's existing properties have been financed through internal operations. During 2001, the Company's expenditures for improvements to existing properties decreased by approximately $969,000 from the prior year, primarily due to decreases in expenditures for tenant improvements. This decrease in expenditures for tenant improvements was primarily due to (i) the sale of two office parks during 2000 and (ii) the lower leasing activity of second generation space during 2001 compared to 2000. During 2001, the Company completed the construction of two buildings, which contain 180,900 gross square feet. During 2000, the Company completed the construction of six buildings, which contain 579,200 gross square feet. During 1999, the Company completed the construction of six buildings, which contain 630,400 gross square feet. On November 1, 1999, the Company acquired four buildings, containing 508,600 gross square feet, located in Charlotte, North Carolina and Orlando, Florida for a purchase price of $64.1 million. On December 12, 2001, the Company sold 75 suburban office buildings, one retail center and 3.4 acres of unimproved land for approximately $199,587,000, net of selling costs, and 5,733,772 shares of the Company's common stock (which were valued at approximately $96,327,000). These properties contained more than 3.9 million rentable square feet and were located throughout Austin and San Antonio, Texas; Charlotte and Greensboro, North Carolina; Greenville, South Carolina; and Birmingham, Alabama. These properties were sold to AP-Knight, an affiliate of Apollo. A director of the Company is the partner responsible for investments at Apollo. The transaction was negotiated by a Special Committee of the Board of Directors composed of directors who had no affiliation with Apollo. In order to insure that the terms of the transaction were equal to, or better than, a similar transaction with an unrelated third party, the Company initiated a marketing period through its financial advisor during which unrelated bidders were asked to submit competing offers to purchase these properties. Prior to the closing of the sale, the Company did not receive any attractive alternative offers for these properties. In connection with this transaction, Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated acted as financial advisor and provided an opinion to the Special Committee of the Board of Directors which opinion stated that the consideration received from the transaction was fair from a financial point of view to the Company. On June 1, 2000, the Company sold the Tulsa Center (containing 476,400 multi-tenant usable square feet and 10 acres of undeveloped land) for approximately $28,841,000, net of selling costs. The Company sold approximately 5.6 acres of unimproved land located in Richmond, Virginia, for approximately $800,000, net of selling costs, on July 10, 2000. On August 11, 2000, the Company sold the El Paso Center (containing 315,600 multi-tenant usable square feet) for approximately $20,075,000, net of selling costs. The sale of these properties when combined with certain property adjustments resulted in a gain of $6,015,000. On August 31, 1999, the Company sold the Jacksonville Central Center (containing 666,000 multi-tenant usable square feet and 1.4 acres of undeveloped land) and the Charlotte East Center (containing 468,900 multi-tenant usable square feet and 3.9 acres of undeveloped land) for approximately $68,761,000, net of selling costs. Financing Activities. The Company's primary external sources of cash are bank borrowings, mortgage financings, and public and private offerings of equity securities. The proceeds of these financings are used by the Company to acquire buildings and land or to refinance debt. The Company has a $125 million secured revolving credit facility provided by Fleet National Bank, Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. and Compass Bank. 16 Prior to 1999, the Company's Board of Directors (the "Board") approved the repurchase of up to one million shares of the Company's common stock (the "Shares"). The Company repurchased 54,000 Shares for approximately $852,000 during 1999. During 2000, the Board approved the repurchase of up to 2.65 million Shares and the Company repurchased 1,209,980 Shares for approximately $20.4 million. The Company did not repurchase any Shares during 2001. During 1999, the Company increased its non-recourse loan with Northwestern Mutual Life Insurance Company ("Northwestern") by $45 million to a total of $235 million, which is secured by nine office parks and one freestanding building. This loan is divided into (i) a tranche in the amount of $100.5 million with a 10 year maturity and an average interest rate of 8.19 percent, (ii) a tranche in the amount of $89.5 million with a maturity of 12 years and an interest rate of 8.33 percent, (iii) a tranche in the amount of $14.7 million which matures January 2, 2007 and an interest rate of 7.1 percent and (iv) a tranche in the amount of $30.3 million which matures on January 2, 2009 and an interest rate of 7.1 percent. Amortization with respect to this indebtedness is based on equal monthly installments over a 25 year amortization period. This indebtedness requires the Company to maintain certain financial ratios. During December 2001, the Company repaid the $90 million outstanding balance under the secured revolving credit facility provided by First Union National Bank of Florida, AmSouth Bank, N.A., Citizens Bank of Rhode Island, Compass Bank and Guaranty Federal Bank. This credit facility matured during December 2001. On December 28, 2001, the Company closed on a new $125 million secured revolving credit facility provided by Fleet National Bank, Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. and Compass Bank. This facility provides for monthly interest payments, requires the Company to maintain certain financial ratios and matures in December 2004. Loan maturities and normal amortization of mortgages and loans payable during the year 2002 are expected to total approximately $12.7 million, which includes a $7.9 million balloon payment due under a term loan which matures in December 2002. In order to generate funds sufficient to make principal payments in respect of indebtedness of the Company over the long term, as well as necessary capital and tenant acquisition expenditures, the Company will be required to successfully refinance its indebtedness or procure additional equity capital. However, there can be no assurance that any such refinancing or equity financing will be achieved or will generate adequate funds on a timely basis for these purposes. If additional funds are raised by issuing equity securities, further dilution to existing shareholders may result. Unfavorable conditions in the financial markets, the degree of leverage of the Company and various other factors may limit the ability of the Company to successfully undertake any such financings, and no assurance can be given as to the availability of alternative sources of funds. The Company has filed shelf registration statements with respect to the issuance of up to $300 million of its common and/or preferred stock. The Company has issued $91.6 million of its common stock under such registration statements. In addition, in the event the Company is unable to generate sufficient funds both to meet principal payments in respect of its indebtedness and to satisfy distribution requirements of 90 percent of annual REIT taxable income to its shareholders, the Company may be unable to qualify as a REIT. In such an event, the Company (i) will incur federal income taxes and perhaps penalties, (ii) if the Company is then paying dividends, may be required to decrease any dividend payments to its shareholders, and (iii) the market price of the Company's common stock may decrease. The Company would also be prohibited from requalifying as a REIT for five years. CAUTIONARY STATEMENT RELEVANT TO FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION FOR PURPOSE OF "SAFE HARBOR" PROVISIONS OF THE PRIVATE SECURITIES LITIGATION REFORM ACT OF 1995 The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (the "Act") provides a "safe harbor" for forward-looking statements to encourage companies to provide prospective information about their businesses without fear of litigation so long as those statements are identified as forward-looking and are accompanied by meaningful cautionary statements identifying important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected in such statements. The Company desires to take advantage of the "safe harbor" provisions of the Act. 17 This Annual Report on Form 10-K contains forward-looking statements, together with related data and projections, about the Company's projected financial results and its future plans and strategies. However, actual results and needs of the Company may vary materially from forward-looking statements and projections made from time to time by the Company on the basis of management's then-current expectations. The business in which the Company is engaged involves changing and competitive markets and a high degree of risk, and there can be no assurance those forward-looking statements and projections will prove accurate. Accordingly, the Company hereby identifies the following important factors, which could cause the Company's actual performance and financial results to differ materially from any results, which might be projected, forecast, estimated or budgeted by the Company. Real Estate Financing Risks Existing Debt. The Company is subject to risks normally associated with debt financing, including (a) the risk that the Company's cash flow will be insufficient to meet required payments of principal and interest, (b) the risk that the existing debt in respect of the Company's properties (which in substantially all cases will not have been fully amortized at maturity) will not be able to be refinanced and (c) the risk that the terms of any refinancing of any existing debt will not be as favorable as the terms of such existing debt. The Company currently has outstanding debt of approximately $248.7 million, all of which is secured by certain of the Company's properties. Approximately $151.4 million of such debt will mature before 2008, with the majority of the remaining balance maturing in 2009. The $125 million secured revolving credit facility (none of which was outstanding at year end) matures in December 2004. If principal payments due at maturity cannot be refinanced, extended or paid with proceeds of other capital transactions, such as new equity capital, the Company expects that its cash flow will not be sufficient to repay all such maturing debt. Furthermore, if prevailing interest rates or other factors at the time of refinancing (such as the reluctance of lenders to make commercial real estate loans) result in higher interest rates upon refinancing than the interest rates on the existing debt, the interest expense relating to such refinanced debt would increase, which would adversely affect the Company's cash flow and the amount of distributions the Company would be able to make to its shareholders. If the Company has mortgaged a property to secure payment of debt and the Company is unable to meet the mortgage payments, then the mortgagee may foreclose upon, or otherwise take control of, such property, with a consequent loss of income and asset value to the Company. Risk of Rising Interest Rates and Variable Rate Debt. The Company currently has a $125 million secured revolving credit facility and a term loan with variable interest rates. The Company may incur additional variable rate debt in the future. Increases in interest rates on such debt could increase the Company's interest expense, which would adversely affect the Company's cash flow and its ability to pay distributions to its shareholders. Existing Leverage; No Limitation on Debt. As of December 31, 2001, the debt to total market capitalization ratio of the Company was approximately 41 percent. The Company's policy regarding this ratio (i.e., total consolidated debt as a percentage of the sum of the market value of issued and outstanding capital stock plus total consolidated debt) is not subject to any limitation in the organizational documents of the Company. Accordingly, the Board of Directors could establish policies which would increase the Company's debt to total market capitalization ratio. If this action were taken, the Company could become more highly leveraged, resulting in an increase in debt service that (a) could adversely affect the Company's cash flow and, consequently, the amount of cash available for distribution to shareholders and (b) could increase the risk of default on the Company's debt. For purposes of establishing and evaluating its debt policy, the Company measures its leverage by reference to the total market capitalization of the Company rather than by reference to the book value of its assets. The Company has used total market capitalization because it believes that the book value of its assets (which to a large extent is comprised of the depreciated value of real property, the Company's primary tangible asset) does not accurately reflect its ability to borrow and to meet debt service requirements. The market capitalization of the Company, however, is more variable than book value, and does not necessarily reflect the fair market value of the underlying assets of the Company at all times. The Company also considers factors other than its market capitalization in making decisions regarding the incurrence of indebtedness, such as the purchase price of properties to be acquired with debt financing, the estimated market value of its properties upon refinancing and the ability of particular properties, and the Company as a whole, to generate cash flow to cover expected debt service. 18 Geographic Concentration The Company's revenues and the value of its properties may be affected by a number of factors, including the regional and local economic climates of the metropolitan areas in which the Company's buildings are located (which may be adversely impacted by business layoffs or downsizing, industry slowdowns, changing demographics and other factors) and regional and local real estate conditions in such areas (such as oversupply of, or reduced demand for, office and other competing commercial properties). All of the Company's properties are located in the southeastern United States. There is also the problem of over building in certain sub-markets located in markets which the Company currently serves. While the Company has avoided acquiring or developing property in these sub-markets such over built condition may move over into the sub-markets where the Company has property. The Company's performance and its ability to make distributions to its shareholders are, therefore, dependent on economic conditions in these market areas. The Company's historical growth has occurred during periods when the economy in the southeastern United States has out-performed the national economy. There can be no assurance as to the continued growth of the economy in the southeastern United States or the future growth rate of the Company. Renewal of Leases and Reletting of Space The Company is subject to the risks that upon expiration of leases for space located in its buildings (a) such leases may not be renewed, (b) such space may not be relet or (c) the terms of renewal or reletting (taking into account the cost of required renovations) may be less favorable than current lease terms. Leases on a total of 20.4 percent and 22.3 percent of the total rentable square feet leased in the Company's buildings will expire in 2002 and 2003, respectively. If the Company is unable to promptly relet, or renew the leases for, all or a substantial portion of the space located in its buildings, or if the rental rates upon such renewal or reletting are significantly lower than expected rental rates, or if the Company's reserves for these purposes prove inadequate, then the Company's cash flow and its ability to make expected distributions to its shareholders may be adversely affected. Leases with State of Florida At December 31, 2001, the Company had 48 leases with various departments and agencies of the State of Florida which totaled approximately 766,000 rentable square feet. The majority of these leases are for space in Office Buildings located in Tallahassee, Florida. These leases have provisions for early termination for various reasons, including lack of budget appropriations. Therefore during times of recession and government austerity measures, the State of Florida may be subject to budget reductions and may decide to terminate certain of its leases prior to the contractual lease expiration date. In addition, these leases provide the State of Florida with the right to terminate, without penalty, prior to the contractual lease expiration date in the event a State owned building becomes available for occupancy upon giving six months advance written notice to the Company. Real Estate Investment Risks General Risks. Real property investments are subject to varying degrees of risk. The yields available from equity investments in real estate depend in large part on the amount of income generated and expenses incurred. If the Company's properties do not generate revenues sufficient to meet operating expenses, including current levels of debt service, tenant improvements, leasing commissions and other capital expenditures, the Company may have to borrow additional amounts to cover fixed costs and the Company's cash flow and its ability to make distributions to its shareholders will be adversely affected. The Company must obtain external financing to meet future debt maturities. 19 The Company's net revenues and the value of its properties may be adversely affected by a number of factors, including the national, regional and local economic climates; regional and local real estate conditions; the perceptions of prospective tenants as to the attractiveness of the property; the ability of the Company to provide adequate management, maintenance and insurance; and increased operating costs (including real estate taxes and utilities). In addition, real estate values and income from properties are also affected by such factors as applicable laws, including tax laws, interest rate levels and the availability of financing. Illiquidity of Real Estate. Equity real estate investments are relatively illiquid. Such illiquidity will tend to limit the ability of the Company to vary its portfolio promptly in response to changes in economic or other conditions. Competition. Numerous office buildings compete with the Company's buildings in attracting tenants to lease space. Some of these competing buildings are newer, better located or better capitalized than some of the Company's buildings. Moreover, the Company believes that major national or regional commercial property developers will continue to seek development opportunities in the southeastern United States. These developers may have greater financial resources than the Company. The number of competitive commercial properties in a particular area could have a material adverse affect on the Company's ability to lease space in its buildings or at newly developed or acquired properties and the rents charged. Changes in Laws. Because increases in income, service or transfer taxes are generally not passed through to tenants under leases, such increases may adversely affect the Company's cash flow and its ability to make distributions to its shareholders. The Company's properties are also subject to various federal, state and local regulatory requirements, such as requirements of the Americans with Disabilities Act (the "ADA") 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. The Company believes that its properties are currently in compliance with all such regulatory requirements. However, there can be no assurance that these requirements will not be changed or that new requirements will not be imposed which would require significant unanticipated expenditures by the Company and could have an adverse affect on the Company's cash flow and expected distributions. Uninsured Loss. The Company presently carries comprehensive liability, fire, and flood (where appropriate), extended coverage and rental loss insurance with respect to its properties, with policy specifications and insured limits customary for similar properties. There are, however, certain types of losses (such as from wars) that may be either uninsurable or not economically insurable. Should an uninsured loss or a loss exceeding policy limits occur, the Company could lose both its capital invested in, and anticipated profits from, one or more of its properties. Bankruptcy and Financial Condition of Tenants. At any time, a tenant of the Company's buildings may seek the protection of the bankruptcy laws, which could result in the rejection and termination of such tenant's lease and thereby cause a reduction in the cash flow available for distribution by the Company. No assurance can be given that tenants will not file for bankruptcy protection in the future or, if any tenants file, that they will affirm their leases and continue to make rental payments in a timely manner. In addition, a tenant from time to time may experience a downturn in its business which may weaken its financial condition and result in its failure to make rental payments when due. If a tenant's lease is not affirmed following bankruptcy or if a tenant's financial condition weakens, the Company's income may be adversely affected. Americans with Disabilities Act Compliance. Under the ADA, all public accommodations and commercial facilities are required to meet certain federal requirements relating to access and use by disabled persons. These requirements became effective in 1992. Compliance with the requirements of the ADA could require removal of access barriers and non-compliance could result in imposition of fines by the U.S. Government or an award of damages to private litigants. Although the Company believes that its properties are substantially in compliance with these requirements, the Company may incur additional costs to comply with the ADA. Although the Company believes that such costs will not have a material adverse affect on the Company, if required changes involve a greater expenditure than the Company currently anticipates, the Company's ability to make distributions to its shareholders could be adversely affected. 20 Risks Involved in Property Ownership Through Partnership and Joint Ventures. Although the Company owns fee simple interests in all but 13 of its properties, in the future the Company could, if then permitted by the covenants in its loan agreements and its financial position, participate with other entities in property ownership through partnerships or joint ventures. KE is currently the general partner of Koger-Vanguard Partners, L.P., which owns 13 office buildings in Charlotte, North Carolina. Partnership or joint venture investments may, under certain circumstances, involve risks not otherwise present in property ownership, including the possibility that (a) the Company's partners or co-ventures might become bankrupt, (b) such partners or co-ventures might at any time have economic or other business interests or goals which are inconsistent with the business interests or goals of the Company, and (c) such partners or co-ventures may be in a position to take action contrary to the instructions or the requests of the Company or contrary to the Company's policies or objectives, including the Company's policy to maintain its qualification as a REIT. The Company will, however, seek to maintain sufficient control of such participants or joint ventures to permit the Company's business objectives to be achieved. There is no limitation under the Company's organizational documents as to the amount of available funds that may be invested in partnerships or joint ventures. Impact of Inflation. The Company may experience increases in its expenses, including debt service, as a result of inflation. The Company's exposure to inflationary cost increases in property level expenses is reduced by escalation clauses, which are included in most of its leases. However, market conditions may prevent the Company from escalating rents. Inflationary pressure may increase operating expenses, including labor and energy costs (and, indirectly, real estate taxes) above expected levels at a time when it may not be possible for the Company to increase lease rates to offset such higher operating expenses. In addition, inflation can have secondary effects upon occupancy rates by decreasing the demand for office space in many of the markets in which the Company operates. Although, inflation has historically often caused increases in the value of income-producing real estate through higher rentals, the Company can provide no assurance that inflation will increase the value of its properties in the future and, in fact, the rate of inflation over recent years has been considerably below that which has been experienced previously. Risk of Development, Construction and Acquisition Activities Within the constraints of its policy concerning leverage, the Company has and will continue to develop and construct office buildings, particularly on its undeveloped land. Risks associated with the Company's development and construction activities, including activities relating to its undeveloped land, may include: abandonment of development opportunities; construction costs of a property exceeding original estimates and possibly making the property uneconomical; insufficient occupancy rates and rents at a newly completed property to make the property profitable; unavailability of financing on favorable terms for development of a property; and the failure to complete construction and lease-up on schedule, resulting in increased debt service expense and construction costs. In addition, new development activities, regardless of whether or not they are ultimately successful, typically require a substantial portion of management's time and attention. Development activities are subject to risks relating to the inability to obtain, or delays in obtaining, all necessary zoning, land-use, building, occupancy and other required governmental permits and authorizations. The Company will continue to acquire office buildings. Acquisitions of office buildings entail risks that investments will fail to perform in accordance with expectations. Estimates of the cost of improvements to bring an acquired building up to standards established for the market position intended for such building may prove inaccurate. In addition, there are general investment risks associated with any new real estate investment. The Company anticipates that any future developments and acquisitions would be financed through a combination of internally generated cash, equity investments and secured or unsecured financing. If new developments are financed through construction loans, there is a risk that, upon completion of construction, permanent financing for newly developed properties may not be available or may be available only on disadvantageous terms. 21 Changes in Policies Without Shareholder Approval The investment, financing, borrowing and distribution policies of the Company, as well as its policies with respect to all other activities, including growth, debt, capitalization and operations, are determined by the Board of Directors. Although the Board of Directors has no present intention to do so, these policies may be amended or revised at any time and from time to time at the discretion of the Board of Directors without a vote of the shareholders of the Company. A change in these policies could adversely affect the financial condition or results of operations of the Company or the market price of the common stock. Limitations of REIT Status on Business of Subsidiaries Certain requirements for REIT qualification may in the future limit the Company's ability to increase fee development, management and leasing operations conducted, and related services offered, by the Company's subsidiaries without jeopardizing the Company's qualification as a REIT. Adverse Consequences of Failure to Qualify as a REIT The Company believes it has operated so as to qualify as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code since its inception in 1988. Although management of the Company intends that the Company continue to operate so as to qualify as a REIT, no assurance can be given that the Company will remain qualified as a REIT. Qualification as a REIT involves the application and satisfaction of highly technical and complex Code requirements for which there are only limited judicial and administrative interpretations. Uncertainty in the application of such requirements, as well as circumstances not entirely within the Company's control, may affect the Company's ability to qualify as a REIT. In addition, no assurance can be given that legislation, new regulations, administrative interpretations or court decisions will not significantly change the tax laws with respect to qualification as a REIT or the federal income tax consequences of such qualification. The Company, however, is not aware of any pending tax legislation that would adversely affect the Company's ability to operate as a REIT. Possible Environmental Liabilities Under various federal, state and local environmental laws, ordinances and regulations, a current or previous owner or operator of real estate may be required to investigate and clean up hazardous or toxic substances or petroleum product releases at such property and may be held liable to a governmental entity or to third parties for property damage and for investigation and clean-up costs incurred by such parties in connection with the contamination. Such laws typically impose clean-up responsibility and liability without regard to whether the owner knew, or caused the presence, of the contaminants, and the liability under such laws has been interpreted to be joint and several unless the harm is divisible and there is a reasonable basis for allocation of responsibility. The costs of investigation, remediation or removal of such substances may be substantial, and the presence of such substances, or the failure to properly remediate the contamination on such property, may adversely affect the owner's ability to sell or rent such property or to borrow using such property as collateral. Any person who arranges for the disposal or treatment of hazardous or toxic substances at a disposal or treatment facility also may be liable for the costs of removal or remediation of a release of hazardous or toxic substances at such disposal or treatment facility, whether or not such facility is owned or operated by such person. In addition, some environmental laws create a lien on the contaminated site in favor of the government for damages and costs that it incurs in connection with the contamination. Finally, the owner of a site may be subject to common law claims by third parties based on damages and costs resulting from environmental contamination emanating from a site. Certain federal, state and local laws, regulations and ordinances govern the removal, encapsulation or disturbance of asbestos-containing materials ("ACM") when such materials are in poor condition or in the event of construction, remodeling, renovation or demolition of a building. Such laws may impose liability for release of ACM and may provide for third parties to seek recovery from owners or operators of real properties for personal injury associated with ACM. In connection with its ownership and operation of its properties, the Company may be potentially liable for such costs. All ACM in the Company's buildings has been found to be in good condition and non-friable, and should not present a risk as long as it continues to be properly managed. 22 The Company's environmental assessments of its properties have not revealed any environmental liability that the Company believes would have a material adverse affect on its business, assets or results of operations taken as a whole, nor is the Company aware of any such material environmental liability. Nevertheless, it is possible that the Company's assessments do not reveal all environmental liabilities or that there are material environmental liabilities of which the Company is unaware. Moreover, there can be no assurance that future laws, ordinances or regulations will not impose any material environmental liability or the current environmental condition of the Company's properties will not be affected by tenants, by the condition of land or operations in the vicinity of such properties (such as the presence of underground storage tanks), or by third parties unrelated to the Company. Effect of Market Interest Rates on Price of Common Stock One of the factors that will influence the market price of the Company's common stock in public markets will be the annual dividend yield on the share price reflected by dividend distributions by the Company. An increase in market interest rates could reduce cash available for distribution by the Company to its shareholders and, accordingly, adversely affect the market price of the common stock. Additional Information For additional disclosure of risk factors to which the Company is subject, see the other sections of "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations." Item 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK Interest Rate Risk The Company currently has a $125 million secured revolving credit facility and a term loan with variable interest rates. The Company may incur additional variable rate debt in the future to meet its financing needs. Increases in interest rates on such debt could increase the Company's interest expense, which would adversely affect the Company's cash flow and its ability to pay distributions to its shareholders. The Company has not entered into any interest rate hedge contracts in order to mitigate the interest rate risk with respect to the secured revolving credit facility. As of December 31, 2001, the Company had $1.5 million outstanding under loans with variable interest rates. If the weighted average interest rate on this variable rate debt were 100 basis points higher or lower, annual interest expense would be increased or decreased by approximately $15,000. 23 Item 8.

Boca Raton, Florida We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Koger Equity, Inc. and subsidiaries (the "Company") as of December 31, 2001 and 2000, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in shareholders' equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2001. Our audits also included the financial statement schedules listed in the Index at Item 8. These financial statements and financial statement schedules are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial statement schedules based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Koger Equity, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2001 and 2000, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2001 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also, in our opinion, such financial statement schedules, when considered in relation to the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, present fairly in all material respects the information set forth therein. As described in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has sold operating properties with over 3.9 million rentable square feet in exchange for cash and shares of the Company's common stock. The purchaser, AP-Knight LP, an affiliate of Apollo Real Estate Advisors, LP, was a related party at the date of the transaction.

AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR EACH OF THE THREE YEARS IN THE PERIOD ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2001 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES. Organization. Koger Equity, Inc. ("KE") was incorporated in Florida on June 21, 1988. KE has three wholly-owned subsidiaries, which are Southeast Properties Holding Corporation ("Southeast"), a Florida corporation; Koger Real Estate Services, Inc. ("KRES"), a Florida corporation; and Koger Realty Services, Inc. ("KRSI"), a Florida corporation. Koger-Vanguard Partners, L.P. ("KVP") is a Delaware limited partnership, for which KE is the general partner. Principles of Consolidation. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of KE, its wholly-owned subsidiaries and KVP (the "Company"). All material intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated in consolidation. Investment in Koger Realty Services, Inc. During January 2001, KE organized KRSI Merger, Inc., a Florida corporation, as a wholly owned taxable subsidiary. Effective February 1, 2001, Koger Realty Services, Inc. ("Koger Realty"), a Delaware corporation, was merged into this new subsidiary (the "Merger"). Pursuant to the Merger, the common stock of Koger Realty was repurchased at the formula price set forth in its Articles of Incorporation. All of the outstanding common stock of Koger Realty was owned by officers and employees of Koger Realty, some of whom were also officers of KE. Subsequent to the Merger, the name of the new Florida subsidiary was changed to Koger Realty Services, Inc. This merger was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting resulting in a reduction in the cost basis of assets of approximately $143,000. Prior to the Merger, the Company accounted for its investment in the preferred stock of Koger Realty using the equity method. Real Estate Investments. Operating properties, properties under construction, furniture and equipment, and undeveloped land held for investment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Undeveloped land held for sale is carried at the lower of cost or fair value less selling costs. Periodically, management reviews its portfolio of operating properties, undeveloped land held for investment and related goodwill and in those instances where properties have suffered an impairment in value, the properties and related goodwill will be reduced to their fair value. This review includes a quarterly analysis of occupancy levels and rental rates for the Company's properties in order to identify properties, which may have suffered an impairment in value. Management prepares estimates of future undiscounted cash flows for these properties to determine whether the Company will be able to recover its investment. In making such estimates, management considers the conditions in the commercial real estate markets in which the properties are located, current and expected occupancy rates, current and expected rental rates, and expected changes in operating costs. As of December 31, 2001, there were no such impairments in value. Maintenance and repairs are charged to operations. Acquisitions, additions, and improvements are capitalized. Minority Interest. During 1998, KE acquired a suburban office park for a purchase price of $52.3 million. The transaction was structured as a contribution of the property to KVP in exchange for 999,710 limited partner units valued at $22.95 million. In connection with this transaction, KVP assumed $22.2 million of debt and received a contribution of $7.2 million from KE in exchange for general partner interests. The limited partner units are entitled to a cumulative preferred return, which approximates the average dividend rate on KE's shares. In addition, the limited partner units carry with them the right to redeem the units for common shares of KE on a one-unit-for-one-share basis or, at the option of KE, the units may be redeemed for cash. KE has reported KVP's assets, liabilities and operations in its consolidated financial statements. The limited partnership units and earnings thereon are reported as minority interests. 30 Depreciation and Amortization. The Company uses the straight-line method for depreciation and amortization. Acquisition costs, building improvements and tenant improvements are depreciated over the periods benefited by the expenditures which range from 3 to 40 years. Deferred tenant costs (leasing commissions and tenant relocation costs) are amortized over the term of the related leases. Deferred financing costs are amortized over the terms of the related debt agreements using a method which approximates the interest method. Cost in excess of fair value of net assets acquired is being amortized over 15 years. Revenue Recognition. Rentals are generally recognized as revenue over the lives of leases according to provisions of the lease agreements. However, the straight-line basis, which averages annual minimum rents over the terms of leases, is used to recognize minimum rental revenues under leases which provide for material varying rents over their terms. For 2001, 2000 and 1999, the recognition of rental revenues on this basis for applicable leases increased rental revenues by $1,470,000, $1,897,000 and $1,764,000, respectively, over the amount which would have been recognized based upon the contractual provisions of these leases. Interest revenue is recognized on the accrual basis for interest-earning investments. Federal Income Taxes. The Company is qualified and has elected tax treatment as a real estate investment trust under the Internal Revenue Code (a "REIT"). A corporate REIT is a legal entity that holds real estate, and through distributions to shareholders, is permitted to reduce or avoid the payment of Federal income taxes at the corporate level. To maintain qualification as a REIT, the Company must distribute to shareholders at least 90 percent of REIT taxable income. To the extent that the Company pays dividends equal to 100 percent of REIT taxable income, the earnings of the Company are taxed at the shareholder level. However, the use of net operating loss carryforwards, which may reduce REIT taxable income to zero, are limited for alternative minimum tax purposes. Distributed capital gains on sales of real estate are not subject to tax; however, undistributed capital gains are taxed as capital gain. Although KRSI is consolidated with the Company for financial reporting purposes, this entity is subject to Federal income tax and files separate Federal and state income tax returns. Stock Options. Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" requires expanded disclosures of stock-based compensation arrangements with employees and encourages (but does not require) compensation cost to be measured based on the fair value of the equity instrument awarded. Companies are permitted, however, to continue to apply Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 ("APB 25"), which recognizes compensation cost based on the intrinsic value of the equity instrument awarded. The Company has continued to apply APB 25 to its stock based compensation awards to employees and has disclosed the required pro forma effect on net income and earnings per share. Earnings Per Common Share. Basic earnings per common share has been computed based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for each period. Diluted earnings per common share is similar to basic earnings per share except that the weighted average number of common shares outstanding is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the dilutive common shares had been issued. The treasury stock method is used to calculate dilutive shares which reduces the gross number of dilutive shares by the number of shares purchasable from the proceeds of the options assumed to be exercised. Following is a reconciliation of number of shares (in thousands) used in the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share. 2001 2000 1999 -------- -------- ------- Weighted average number of common shares outstanding - Basic 26,517 26,730 26,689 Effect of dilutive securities: Stock options 93 232 330 ------ ------ ------ Adjusted common shares - Diluted 26,610 26,962 27,019 ====== ====== ====== 31 Fair Value of Financial Instruments. The Company believes that the carrying amount of its financial instruments (temporary investments, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and mortgages and loans payable) is a reasonable estimate of fair value of these instruments. Cash and Cash Equivalents. Cash in excess of daily requirements is invested in short-term monetary securities. Such temporary cash investments have an original maturity of less than three months and are deemed to be cash equivalents for purposes of the statements of cash flows. Statements of Cash Flows. During 1999, the Company contributed 15,603 shares of common stock to the Company's 401(k) Plan. These shares had a value of approximately $268,000 based on the closing price of the Company's common stock on the American Stock Exchange on December 31, 1998. In addition, the Company issued 19,695 shares of common stock as payment for certain 1998 bonuses for senior management. These shares had a value of approximately $285,000 based on the closing price of the Company's common stock on the American Stock Exchange on February 18, 1999. During 2000, the Company contributed 15,557 shares of common stock to the Company's 401(k) Plan. These shares had a value of approximately $262,000 based on the closing price of the Company's common stock on the American Stock Exchange on December 31, 1999. The Company's common stock is currently traded on the New York Stock Exchange. During 2001, the Company received 86,779 shares of its common stock as settlement of $1,364,000 of notes receivable from former employees ($1,010,000 of which were Notes Receivable from Stock Sales). Pursuant to the Merger, the Company acquired the net assets of Koger Realty in exchange for its preferred stock in Koger Realty. The net assets of Koger Realty acquired consisted of (i) cash in the amount of $2,535,000, (ii) other assets with a fair value of $1,016,000 and (iii) liabilities assumed with a fair value of $937,000. During December 2001, the Company acquired 5,733,772 shares of its common stock in conjunction with the sale of properties to AP-Knight, LP (see Footnote 2. Transactions with Related Parties). For 2001, 2000 and 1999, total interest payments (net of amounts capitalized) were $25,600,000, $27,307,000 and $21,353,000, respectively, for the Company. Interest capitalized during 2001, 2000 and 1999 totaled $207,000, $1,059,000 and $3,343,000, respectively. For 2001, 2000 and 1999, payments for income taxes totaled $252,000, $155,000 and $455,000, respectively. Estimates. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during each reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. New Accounting Standards. During July 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 141, "Business Combinations", and SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets." These Statements make significant changes to the accounting for business combinations, goodwill, and intangible assets. SFAS No. 141 eliminates the pooling-of-interests method of accounting for business combinations with limited exceptions for combinations initiated prior to July 1, 2001. In addition, it further clarifies the criteria for recognition of intangible assets separately from goodwill. This statement is effective for business combinations completed after June 30, 2001. SFAS No. 142 discontinues the practice of amortizing goodwill and indefinite lived intangible assets and initiates an annual review for impairment. Impairment would be examined more frequently if certain indicators are encountered. Intangible assets with a determinable useful life will continue to be amortized over that period. The amortization provisions apply to goodwill and intangible assets acquired after September 30, 2001. SFAS No. 142 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. Goodwill and intangible assets on the books at December 31, 2001 will be affected when the Company adopts the Statement effective January 1, 2002. The Company is evaluating the impact of the adoption of these standards and has not yet determined the effect of adoption on its financial position and results of operations. 32 In June 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 143, "Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations." SFAS No. 143 requires entities to record the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation in the period in which it is incurred and requires that the amount recorded as a liability be capitalized by increasing the carrying amount of the related long-lived asset. Subsequent to initial measurement, the liability is accreted to the ultimate amount anticipated to be paid, and is also adjusted for revisions to the timing or amount of estimated cash flows. The capitalized cost is depreciated over the useful life of the related asset. Upon settlement of the liability, an entity either settles the obligation for its recorded amount or incurs a gain or loss upon settlement. SFAS No. 143 is required to be adopted for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2002, with earlier application encouraged. The Company is currently assessing but has not yet determined the impact of SFAS No. 143 on its financial position and results of operations. In August 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets." This statement supersedes SFAS No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed of." SFAS No. 144 retains the fundamental provisions of SFAS No. 121 for (a) recognition and measurement of the impairment of long-lived assets to be held and used and (b) measurement of long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale. SFAS No. 144 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. The Company is currently assessing but has not yet determined the impact of SFAS No. 144 on its financial position and results of operations. 2. TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES. Three directors were elected to the Company's Board of Directors under the terms of an agreement dated October 10, 1996 between the Company and an affiliate of Apollo Real Estate Investment Fund II, L.P. ("Apollo") pursuant to which Apollo purchased three million shares of common stock from the Company for $43.5 million ($14.50 per share). Such agreement granted to Apollo registration rights and a conditional exemption from certain of the Company's takeover defenses for a period of three years, which period ended on October 10, 1999. During December 2001, the Company sold 75 suburban office buildings, one retail center and 3.4 acres of unimproved land to AP-Knight, LP ("AP-Knight"), an affiliate of Apollo, for approximately $206.7 million cash ($199.6 million net of selling costs) and Apollo's 5.73 million shares of the Company's common stock. In addition to the above consideration, the Company received a membership interest in an Apollo subsidiary. This interest will provide the Company with a 20 percent participation in the net cash flow from the disposed assets after Apollo has received a 15 percent internal rate of return on its equity investment. The transaction was negotiated by a Special Committee of the Board of Directors composed of directors who had no affiliation with Apollo. The Company initiated a marketing period through its financial advisor during which unrelated bidders were asked to submit competing offers to purchase these properties. Prior to the closing of the sale, the Company did not receive any attractive alternative offers for these properties. In connection with this transaction, Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated acted as financial advisor and provided an opinion to the Special Committee of the Board of Directors which opinion stated that the consideration received from the transaction was fair from a financial point of view to the Company. During February 2001, Koger Realty Services, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Koger Realty"), was merged into a wholly owned taxable subsidiary of KE. Prior to the Merger, KE owned all of the preferred stock of Koger Realty, which represented in excess of 95 percent (by value) of the economic benefits of Koger Realty. This preferred stock was nonvoting stock and not convertible into common stock while held by KE. All of the outstanding common stock of Koger Realty had been acquired by officers and employees of Koger Realty, some of whom were also officers of KE. Pursuant to the Merger, Koger Realty repurchased all outstanding common stock at the formula price set forth in its Articles of Incorporation. In connection with the Merger, Messrs. Hughes, Teagle, and Stephens were paid $20,555, $15,416 and $10,277, respectively, to redeem their shares of common stock of Koger Realty in which they had a basis of $19,840, $14,880 and $9,920, respectively. During 2000, the Company reached an agreement with Crocker Realty Trust ("CRT") to provide asset management services for the portfolio of CRT, which currently contains 4.6 million rentable square feet. Mr. Crocker is the Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of CRT and owns 2.8 percent of the outstanding CRT shares. Mr. Onisko is the Treasurer and Chief Financial Officer of CRT and owns 0.2 percent of the outstanding CRT shares. In addition, Apollo is a principal shareholder of CRT owning 49 percent of the outstanding CRT shares. The Company is paid a fee for these services based upon the value of CRT's assets. This agreement is terminable by either party upon 90 days written notice. The terms of this agreement were approved by a committee of the Company's Board of Directors whose members were not affiliated with CRT. The Company earned fees of $452,000 and $296,000 under this agreement during 2001 and 2000, respectively. 33 In conjunction with the Company's plan to repurchase up to 2.65 million shares of common stock (the "Shares"), the Board of Directors granted to Mr. Crocker the right to purchase up to 500,000 Shares and to Mr. Onisko, the right to purchase up to 150,000 Shares. These officers are entitled to make purchases of one Share of every three Shares purchased by the Company as part of this plan. The Shares may be purchased from the Company at the same time and for the same price as the Company purchases Shares. In addition, the Company will loan up to 75% of the purchase price for these Shares to Mr. Crocker and to Mr. Onisko. These loans will be collateralized by the Shares purchased. The loan amount cannot exceed 75% of the collateral value at any point in time. These loans will bear interest at 150 basis points over the applicable LIBOR rate. Approximately $836,000 of these loans are subject to recourse and the remaining loans will be without recourse. Accrued interest on these loans is a recourse obligation and any paid interest is not refundable if the stock is returned in settlement of the loans. Through December 31, 2001, Mr. Crocker acquired 302,495 Shares and Mr. Onisko acquired 100,831 Shares under this plan. All of these Shares were acquired during 2000. During 2000, the Company's Board approved a program to lend up to $2.5 million to executive officers and department heads for the purpose of exercising options. The loans have a term of 60 months and bear interest at 150 basis points over the applicable LIBOR rate. There were no loans outstanding at year-end under this program. Through December 31, 2001, options have been exercised to acquire 185,027 Shares under this program. 3. MORTGAGES AND LOANS PAYABLE. The Company has $235 million of non-recourse loans ($219.8 million of which was outstanding on December 31, 2001) with Northwestern Mutual Life Insurance Company ("Northwestern") which are secured by nine office parks and one freestanding building. These loans are divided into (i) a tranche in the amount of $100.5 million with a 10 year maturity and an average interest rate of 8.19 percent, (ii) a tranche in the amount of $89.5 million with a maturity of 12 years and an interest rate of 8.33 percent, (iii) a tranche in the amount of $14.7 million which matures on January 2, 2007 and an interest rate of 7.1 percent and (iv) a tranche in the amount of $30.3 million which matures on January 2, 2009 and an interest rate of 7.1 percent. Monthly payments on this loan include principal amortization based on a 25-year amortization period. This indebtedness requires the Company to maintain certain financial ratios and is collateralized by properties with a carrying value of approximately $371.8 million at December 31, 2001. The Company has a $125 million secured revolving credit facility (none of which was outstanding on December 31, 2001) provided by Fleet National Bank, Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. and Compass Bank. Based on the Company's election, the interest rate on this revolving credit facility will be either (i) the lender's LIBOR rate plus either 165,190 or 215 basis points (depending on the Company's leverage ratio) or (ii) the lender's prime rate plus either 40, 65 or 90 basis points (depending on the Company's leverage ratio). Interest payments will be due monthly on this credit facility which has a term of three years. This credit facility requires the Company to maintain certain financial ratios, which includes a limitation on dividends, and is collateralized by properties with a carrying value of approximately $98.4 million at December 31, 2001. This credit facility matures in December 2004. The Company assumed other non-recourse loans with outstanding balances of $30.7 million ($28.9 million of which was outstanding on December 31, 2001) in conjunction with certain property acquisitions. The contractual interest rates on these loans range from 7.88 percent to 8.2 percent. Amortization with respect to this indebtedness is based on equal monthly installments based on 25-year amortization periods. These three loans mature in 2002, 2006 and 2021. This indebtedness is collateralized by properties with a carrying value of approximately $59.4 million at December 31, 2001. The Company is in compliance with all of the above referenced debt covenants as of December 31, 2001. 34 The annual maturities of mortgages and loans payable, as of December 31, 2001, are summarized as follows: Year Ending Amount December 31, (In thousands) ------------ -------------- 2002 $ 12,702 2003 5,200 2004 5,629 2005 6,110 2006 23,704 Subsequent Years 195,338 -------- Total $248,683 ======== 4. LEASES. The Company's operations consist principally of owning and leasing of office space. Most of the leases are for terms of three to five years. Generally, the Company pays all operating expenses, including real estate taxes and insurance. At December 31, 2001, approximately 97 percent of the Company's annualized rentals were subject to rent escalations based on changes in the Consumer Price Index, fixed rental increases or increases in real estate taxes and certain operating expenses. A substantial number of leases contain options that allow leases to renew for varying periods. The Company's leases are operating leases and expire at various dates through 2020. Minimum future rental revenues from leases in effect at December 31, 2001, determined without regard to renewal options, are summarized as follows: Year Ending Amount December 31, (In thousands) ------------ --------------- 2002 $ 95,691 2003 77,455 2004 59,162 2005 46,404 2006 35,531 Subsequent Years 93,771 ------ Total $408,014 ======== The above minimum future rental revenue does not include contingent rentals that may be received under provisions of the lease agreements. Of the total rental revenues recorded by the Company, contingent rentals amounted to $10,510,000, $10,415,000 and $9,638,000 for the years 2001, 2000, and 1999, respectively. At December 31, 2001, annualized rental revenues totaled approximately $16,262,000 (15.7 percent) and $14,016,000 (13.5 percent), respectively, for the United States of America and the State of Florida, when all of their departments and agencies which lease space in the Company's buildings were combined. 5. STOCK OPTIONS AND RIGHTS. 1988 Stock Option Plan. The Company's Amended and Restated 1988 Stock Option Plan (the "1988 Plan") provided for the granting of options to purchase up to 500,000 shares of its common stock to key employees of the Company and its subsidiaries. To exercise the option, payment of the option price is required before the option shares are delivered. These options expire seven years from the date of grant and are generally exercisable beginning one year from the date of the grant at the rate of 20 percent per annum of the shares covered by each option on a cumulative basis, being fully exercisable five years after the date of grant. In accordance with the terms of the 1988 Plan, additional options cannot be granted after ten years from the date of adoption of this plan. 35 1993 Stock Option Plan. The Company's 1993 Stock Option Plan (the "1993 Plan") provides for the granting of options to purchase up to 1,000,000 shares of its common stock to key employees of the Company and its affiliates. To exercise the option, payment of the option price is required before the option shares are delivered. These options expire ten years from the date of grant and are generally exercisable beginning one year from the date of the grant at the rate of 20 percent per annum of the shares covered by each option on a cumulative basis, being fully exercisable five years after the date of grant. 1996 Stock Option Plan.

Options granted pursuant to the 1998 Plan would expire ten years from the date of grant. Information Concerning Options Granted. Substantially all of the options granted have been granted with an exercise price equal to the market value at the date of grant. If compensation cost for stock option grants had been determined based on the fair value at the grant dates for 2001, 2000 and 1999 consistent with the method prescribed by SFAS No. 123, the Company's net earnings and earnings per share would have been adjusted to the pro forma amounts indicated below: 2001 2000 1999 ---------------- ---------------- --------------- Net income - As reported $73,223,000 $27,153,000 $36,586,000 - Pro forma $71,722,000 $24,938,000 $35,208,000 Diluted earnings per share - As reported $2.75 $1.01 $1.35 - Pro forma $2.70 $0.92 $1.30 Under SFAS No. 123, the fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the binomial option-pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions used for grants in 2001, 2000 and 1999: 2001 2000 1999 ----------- ------------ --------------- 1993 Plan, 1996 Plan, 1998 Plan and Other Dividend yield - 8.00% - Expected volatility - 28.02% - Risk-free interest rates - 6.62% - Expected lives (months) - 82 - 36 A summary of the status of fixed stock option grants as of December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999, and changes during the years ending on those dates is presented below: 2001 2000 1999 ----------------------- --------------------------- ----------------------- Weighted Weighted Weighted Average Average Average Exercise Exercise Exercise Options Price Options Price Options Price ---------- ---------- ------------ ------------- --------- -------- Outstanding - beginning of year 2,883,834 $17.28 2,257,293 $15.97 2,514,721 $15.68 Granted - - 1,746,000 16.57 - - Exercised (103,981) 13.21 (824,707) 11.40 (174,571) 10.74 Expired - - - - - - Forfeited (262,576) 17.94 (294,752) 19.52 (82,857) 18.17 ---------- ---------- ---------- Outstanding - end of year 2,517,277 $17.37 2,883,834 $17.28 2,257,293 $15.97 ========= ====== ========= ====== ========= ====== The weighted average fair value of options granted during 2000 was $3.15.

Pursuant to a Shareholder Rights Plan (the "Rights Plan"), on September 30, 1990, the Board of Directors of the Company declared a dividend of one common stock purchase right (the "Rights") for each outstanding share of common stock of the Company. Under the terms of the Rights Plan, the rights which were distributed to the shareholders of record on October 11, 1990, trade together with the Company's Shares and are not exercisable until the occurrence of certain events (none of which have occurred through December 31, 2001), including acquisition of, or commencement of a tender offer for, 15 percent or more of the Company's common stock. In such event, each right entitles its holder (other than the acquiring person or bidder) to acquire additional shares of the Company's common stock at a 50 percent discount from the market price. The rights are redeemable under circumstances as specified in the Rights Plan. The Rights Plan was amended effective October 10, 1996 for Apollo and its affiliates. See Note 2 for further discussion of this amendment. Pursuant to an amendment to the Common Stock Rights Agreement dated as of August 17, 2000, the Rights have been extended ten years, through September 30, 2010. 37 6. STOCK INVESTMENT PLAN. The Company has a stock investment plan (the "SIP") which provides for regular purchases of the Company's Shares by all employees and directors. The SIP provides for monthly payroll and directors' fees deductions up to $1,700 per month with the Company making monthly contributions for the account of each participant as follows: (i) 25 percent of amounts up to $50; (ii) 20 percent of amounts between $50 and $100; and (iii) 15 percent of amounts between $100 and $1,700, which amounts are used by an unaffiliated Administrator to purchase Shares from the Company. The Company has reserved a total of 200,000 Shares for issuance under the SIP. The Company's contribution and the expenses incurred in administering the SIP totaled approximately $37,300, $50,500 and $54,700 for 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively. Through December 31, 2001, 157,152 Shares have been issued under the SIP. 7. EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS. The Company has a 401(k) plan (the "401(k) Plan") which permits contributions by employees. For 1999, the Company's Board of Directors approved a Company contribution to the 401(k) Plan in the form of the Company's Shares (15,557 Shares which had a value of approximately $262,000 on December 31, 1999). The contribution for 1999 was made during February 2000. For 2000 and 2001, the Company's Board of Directors approved cash contributions to the 401(k) Plan which totaled $182,000 and $167,000, respectively. The Company has a supplemental executive retirement plan (the "SERP"), an unfunded defined benefit plan. The purpose of the SERP is to facilitate the retirement of select key executive employees by supplementing their benefits under the Company's 401(k) Plan. The benefits are based on years of service and the employee's average base salary during the last three calendar years of employment. The SERP was curtailed during 2000 when as part of the corporate reorganization 12 of the 13 active participants terminated employment with the Company. SERP benefits were settled, via single cash payments, for 9 of these 12 individuals. Currently, there are four retired participants (all receiving monthly benefits) and one active participant in the SERP. Net periodic pension cost for the SERP for 2001, 2000 and 1999 was as follows (in thousands): 2001 2000 1999 ----- ------- ----- Service cost $ 13 $ 47 $ 182 Interest cost 279 433 481 Amortization of unrecognized prior service cost 76 257 418 Amortization of unrecognized net loss - 4 39 ------ -------- --------- Net periodic benefit cost 368 741 1,120 Curtailment - unrecognized prior service cost acceleration - 2,512 - Curtailment gain - (586) - Termination benefit cost - 1,128 - ------ -------- --------- Total Cost $368 $3,795 $1,120 ==== ====== ====== 38 Assumptions used in the computation of net periodic pension cost for the SERP were as follows: 2001 2000 1999 ---- ---- ---- Discount rate 6.5% 7.5% 7.5% Rate of increase in salary levels 5.0% 5.0% 5.0% The following table provides a reconciliation of benefit obligations, the status of the unfunded SERP and the amounts included in accrued liabilities-other in the Consolidated Balance Sheet at December 31, 2001 and 2000 (in thousands): 2001 2000 ----- ------ Change in benefit obligation Benefit obligation at beginning of year (KE and KRSI for 2001) $4,061 $6,981 Service cost 13 47 Interest cost 279 433 Amendments 0 0 Actuarial (gain)/loss 407 (1,503) Benefits paid (614) (3,317) Termination benefit cost 0 1,129 -------- ------- Benefit obligation at end of year 4,146 3,770 -------- ------- Change in plan assets Fair value of plan assets at beginning of year 0 0 Expected return on plan assets 0 0 Employer contribution 614 3,317 Benefits paid (614) (3,317) -------- ------- Fair value of plan assets at end of year 0 0 -------- ------- Funded status (4,146) (3,770) Unrecognized prior service cost 657 616 Unrecognized actuarial loss 407 0 --------- ----------- Net amount recognized $(3,082) $(3,154) ======= ======= Amounts recognized in the statement of financial position consist of: Accrued benefit liability $(3,082) $(3,154) Additional minimum liability (577) (470) Intangible asset 577 470 --------- --------- Net amount recognized $(3,082) $(3,154) ======= ======= 8. DIVIDENDS. During 2001, 2000 and 1999, the Company paid a total of $1.40, $1.40 and $1.30 per share of regular dividends, respectively. In addition on January 15, 2002, the Company paid a capital gain distribution in the form of a special dividend of $1.74 per share to shareholders of record on December 28, 2001. For tax purposes, this special dividend will be treated as if it was paid in 2001. For income tax purposes, the components of the dividends paid during 2001 are as follows: 39 Unrecaptured Qualified Section 1250 Five Year Payment Date Ordinary Income Return of Capital Gain (25%) Gain --------------------- --------------- ----------------- -------------- ----------- February 1, 2001 $0.350 - - - May 3, 2001 0.350 - - - August 2, 2001 0.350 - - - November 1, 2001 0.350 - - - January 15, 2002 0.002 - $1.603 $0.135 -------- ----- ------ ------ $1.402 - $1.603 $0.135 ======== ===== ====== ====== The Company intends that the quarterly dividend payout in the last quarter of each year will be adjusted to reflect the distribution of at least 90 percent of the Company's REIT taxable income as required by the Federal income tax laws. The Company's secured revolving credit facility requires the Company to maintain certain financial ratios, which includes a limitation on dividends. During November 2001, the Company's Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.35 per share payable on February 7, 2002, to shareholders of record on December 31, 2001. 9. FEDERAL INCOME TAXES. The Company is operated in a manner so as to qualify and has elected tax treatment as a REIT. As a REIT, the Company is required to distribute to shareholders at least 90 percent of REIT taxable income. For the three years in the period ended December 31, 2001, the Company has paid out dividends in amounts at least equal to its REIT taxable income. For the year ended December 31, 2001, the Company's taxable income prior to the dividends paid deduction was approximately $37,573,000 (which equals the Company's 2001 dividends paid deduction). The Company's taxable income prior to the dividends paid deduction for the years ended December 31, 2000 and 1999 was approximately $26,393,000 and $34,661,000, respectively. The difference between net income for financial reporting purposes and taxable income results primarily from different methods of accounting for bad debts, depreciable lives related to the properties owned, advance rents received and net operating loss carryforwards. At December 31, 2001, the net book basis of the Company's assets and liabilities exceeded the net tax basis of assets and liabilities in the amount of approximately $33.4 million. The following table reconciles the Company's net income to REIT taxable income (which excludes non-REIT operations) for the year ended December 31, 2001 (in thousands): 2001 Estimate 2000 1999 --------- --------- -------- Net Income $73,223 $27,153 $36,586 Less: Net income of taxable REIT Subsidiary (651) 0 0 --------- --------- -------- Net income from REIT operations 72,572 27,153 36,586 Add: Book depreciation and amortization 35,954 35,133 32,314 Less: Tax depreciation and amortization (27,314) (28,537) (27,484) Book/tax difference on gains from capital transactions (2,416) (1,503) (2,676) Other book/tax differences, net (2,178) (5,853) (1,540) --------- --------- -------- Taxable income before adjustments 76,618 26,393 37,200 Less: Capital gains distributions (36,728) 0 0 --------- --------- -------- Taxable ordinary income before adjustments 39,890 26,393 37,200 Less: Net operating loss carryforward (2,317) 0 (2,539) --------- --------- -------- Adjusted taxable income subject to 90 percent dividend requirement $37,573 $26,393 $34,661 ======= ======= ======= 40 The Company utilized approximately $2,539,000 of net operating loss carryforwards to reduce REIT taxable income for 1999. The Company's net operating loss carryforward available to offset REIT taxable income for 2001 is approximately $2,414,000. The use of net operating loss carryforwards and other tax attributes by the Company is subject to certain limitations imposed by Internal Revenue Code Sections 382 and 383. These limitations apply to both regular and alternative minimum taxes. These net operating loss carryforwards and other tax attributes can be used in varying degrees to offset REIT taxable income or tax through 2007. For 2000 and 1999, the Company incurred alternative minimum taxes of approximately $0 and $508,000, respectively, and recorded a provision for alternative minimum taxes of approximately $340,000 for 2001. KRSI is subject to Federal, state and local income taxes. During 2001, KRSI recorded a provision for Federal income tax of $323,000. 10. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES. At December 31, 2001, the Company had no material commitments for the construction of buildings or for improvements to existing buildings. Certain stock option agreements, which granted options to purchase 1.6 million shares of the Company's common stock, contain provisions providing for amounts to be placed in escrow equal to any extraordinary dividend or other extraordinary distribution paid to the Company's shareholders as if the 1.6 million options had been exercised immediately prior to the declaration of such distribution. The Company paid a special distribution of $1.74 per share on January 15, 2002. If the closing price of the Company's common stock equals or exceeds $14.3225 on at least 60 days during the period from September 1, 2002 to December 31, 2002, then $1.74 million will be accrued as compensation expense in 2002 related to one million options. 11. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS (UNAUDITED). During January 2002, the Company acquired the 999,710 limited partnership units in KVP for approximately $16.5 million. On January 31, 2002, the Company acquired a 31-story office building, containing approximately 806,000 rentable square feet, located in Atlanta's Central Perimeter submarket for $125 million. This purchase was funded with cash and by drawing $80 million under the Company's secured revolving credit facility. 12. INTERIM FINANCIAL INFORMATION (UNAUDITED).
