Item 5. Other Events.

As previously reported, on April 16, 2004, we entered agreements to acquire all of the limited and general partnership interests of Hallwood Realty Partners, L.P., or Hallwood, for $250 million, subject to adjustment based on contract terms. Hallwood is a publicly traded limited partnership which owns a portfolio of office and industrial properties that contain 5.2 million square feet of space located in seven metropolitan areas. The Hallwood properties are currently leased to approximately 500 tenants and current lease terms vary considerably, expiring between 2004 and 2020. In addition to the estimated cash purchase price, we expect to assume approximately $206 million of Hallwood’s outstanding debt. The terms of Hallwood’s debt permit prepayment at various times; some of this debt repayment may require premiums according to contractual formulas. We intend to prepay approximately $100 million of such debt at or shortly after closing and prepay approximately $77.5 million of additional debt in or around July 2005. We believe at the time of the acquisition Hallwood will have net working capital of approximately $57 million. After deducting estimated debt repayment premiums, transaction related fees and costs and certain adjustments based on contract terms, we believe the estimated aggregate acquisition cost to be approximately $430 million. We intend to fund the purchase of the Hallwood limited and general partnership interests and repayment of Hallwood debt with cash on hand and by borrowing under our revolving credit facility. Completion of this transaction is subject to various terms, conditions and contingencies customary in transactions of this type, including a majority vote of Hallwood’s limited partners. In the event Hallwood accepts a higher offer, Hallwood has agreed to pay us a break up fee of $10 million plus a portion of our expenses. We expect the closing to occur in July 2004.

In unrelated transactions, we acquired the following additional properties between January 1, 2004 and May 31, 2004 (dollars and square feet in thousands):

Pursuant to the requirements of Rule 3-14 of Regulation S-X, this Current Report on Form 8-K includes a Statement of Revenues and Certain Operating Expenses for Hallwood for the three months ended March 31, 2004 (unaudited) and for the year ended December 31, 2003, as well as pro forma financial data for HRPT Properties Trust which includes the proposed Hallwood acquisition and other acquisitions completed by us since January 1, 2004 (balance sheet) and January 1, 2003 (statements of income). Because changes will likely occur in occupancy, rents and expenses experienced by Hallwood and the acquired properties and because the Hallwood acquisition may not be completed, the historical financial statements and pro forma financial data presented should not be considered as a projection of future results.

FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

THIS FORM 8-K CONTAINS FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS WITHIN THE MEANING OF THE PRIVATE SECURITIES LITIGATION REFORM ACT OF 1995 AND THE FEDERAL SECURITIES LAWS. THESE FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS ARE BASED UPON HRP’S CURRENT BELIEFS AND EXPECTATIONS, BUT THEY ARE NOT GUARANTEED. FOR EXAMPLE, THE RENTS IN EXCESS OF OPERATING EXPENSES MAY BE LESS THAN CURRENTLY EXPECTED DUE TO CHANGING MARKET CONDITIONS, INCREASED EXPENSES OR FOR OTHER REASONS. ALSO, VARIOUS CLOSING CONDITIONS UNDER THE HALLWOOD AGREEMENT MAY NOT BE SATISFIED AND THE ACQUISITION MAY NOT BE COMPLETED. ADDITIONAL FACTORS THAT MAY IMPACT THE FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS ARE SET FORTH IN OUR FORM 8-K FILED ON MAY 14, 2004. INVESTORS ARE CAUTIONED NOT TO PLACE UNDUE RELIANCE UPON FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS.

  Neither the Company nor its affiliates are related to the seller of these properties. The historical financial statements listed in Item 7 (a) present the results of operations of the Hallwood properties during periods prior to their expected acquisition by HRPT Properties Trust ("HRP") and exclude, as permitted by Rule 3-14 of Regulation S-X, items of revenue and expense which are not comparable to the expected future operations by HRP. In assessing the Hallwood properties, HRP considered each property’s revenue sources, including those which have been affected, and are expected to be affected in the future by factors including, but not limited to, demand, supply and competitive factors present in the local and national markets for office and industrial space and the ability of tenants to make payments when due. HRP also considered each property’s expenses including, but not limited to, utility costs, tax rates and other expenses, and the portion of such expenses which may be recovered from tenants. Changes in these factors or as a result of other factors described in the notes to the pro forma data provided below will cause future operating results to differ from the historical and pro forma operating results presented, but can not be predicted at this time.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Partners of Hallwood Realty Partners, L.P.

We have audited the accompanying statement of revenues and certain operating expenses (the “Statement”) of Hallwood Realty Partners, L.P. (the “Partnership”) for the year ended December 31, 2003. The Statement is the responsibility of the Partnership’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Statement based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the Statement is free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the Statement. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the Statement. We believe that our audit of the Statement provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

The accompanying Statement was prepared for the purpose of complying with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (for inclusion in Form 8-K and incorporation by reference into Registration Statements on Form S-3 of HRPT Properties Trust) as described in Note 2 to the Statement and is not intended to be a complete presentation of the Partnership’s revenues and expenses.

In our opinion, the Statement presents fairly, in all material respects, the revenues and certain operating expenses described in Note 2 to the Statement of the Partnership for the year ended December 31, 2003, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

NOTES TO STATEMENTS OF REVENUES AND CERTAIN OPERATING EXPENSES
THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2004 (UNAUDITED) AND YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2003


1.   NATURE OF THE PARTNERSHIP’S BUSINESS

  Hallwood Realty Partners, L.P. (“HRPLP”), a publicly traded Delaware limited partnership, operates in the commercial real estate industry. HRPLP’s activities include the acquisition, ownership and operation of its commercial real estate assets. Units representing limited partnership interests are traded on the American Stock Exchange under the symbol “HRY.”

  Hallwood Realty, LLC (“Realty”), a Delaware limited liability company and indirectly wholly-owned subsidiary of The Hallwood Group Incorporated, is HRPLP’s general partner and is responsible for asset management of HRPLP and its properties, including decision-making responsibility for financing, refinancing, acquiring and disposing of properties. In addition, Realty provides general operating and administrative services to HRPLP. Hallwood Commercial Real Estate, LLC (“HCRE”), another indirectly wholly owned subsidiary of The Hallwood Group Incorporated, provides property management, leasing and construction supervision services to the properties.

  On April 16, 2004, HRPLP announced that it and certain of its affiliates have entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with HRPT Properties Trust (“HRPT”), pursuant to which HRPLP will merge with a subsidiary of HRPT. As a result of the merger, HRPLP will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of HRPT and will no longer be a publicly traded limited partnership.

Leases generally require the Properties’ tenants to pay fixed rents, plus a proportionate share of certain building operating costs and real property taxes. Revenue from property operations includes expense recoveries of $4,166,000 in 2003. In addition, certain leases include provisions for annual rental adjustments. Some leases contain provisions that allow tenants to terminate their leases prior to normal expiration. At December 31, 2003, the Properties, in the aggregate, were approximately 86% leased. The following table sets forth the minimum cash rental payments to be received from leases in place as of December 31, 2003 (in thousands):

As of December 31, 2003, the General Services Administration of the U.S. Government (“GSA”) leased 396,000 square feet of office space at Executive Park, under six leases which expire between 2004 and 2015. Also, as of December 31, 2003, GSA leased 353,000 square feet of office space at Corporate Square under three leases, which expire in 2004, 2013 (with a right to terminate in 2008) and 2020. The GSA accounted for 17% of revenues in 2003.

Revenues from property operations on the Statements of Revenues and Certain Operating Expenses (the “Statements”) include the effect of amortizing the aggregate minimum lease payments on a straight-line basis over the entire terms of the leases, which amounted to an increase in rental income of $275,215 and $1,808,090 for the three months ended March 31, 2004 (unaudited) and for the year ended December 31, 2003, respectively.

2.   BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

  Basis  of  Presentation—The Statements have been prepared for the purpose of complying with the provisions of Rule 3-14 of Regulation S-X promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), which requires that certain information with respect to real estate operations be included with certain SEC filings. The Statements for the three months ended March 31, 2004 (unaudited) and for the year ended December 31, 2003, include the historical revenues and certain operating expenses of the Properties, exclusive of certain historical expenses such as corporate expenses, mortgage interest, and depreciation and amortization (collectively, the “Excluded Items”), which may not be comparable to amounts expected to be incurred in the future.


F-5



  Use of Estimates—The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires the Properties’ management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

  Revenue Recognition—The Properties operations consist of rental income earned from tenants under leasing arrangements which generally provide for minimum rents and charges to tenants for their pro rata share of real estate taxes and operating expenses. All leases have been accounted for as operating leases. Rental income is recognized by amortizing the aggregate minimum lease payments on a straight-line basis over the entire term of the leases. Revenues from expense recoveries are recorded when earned.

  Repairs and Maintenance—Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred.

3.   RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

  HRPLP pays certain fees to Realty in connection with its ongoing management, including an asset management fee, acquisition fees and disposition fees. Specifically, HRPLP pays an asset management fee equal to 1% of the net aggregate base rents of the Properties.

  HRPLP pays HCRE compensation in connection with the management of the Properties. The management contracts with HCRE, which were scheduled to expire June 30, 2004, were amended in April 2004. These contracts will now expire on the later of the closing date of the proposed merger with HRPT or six months from the termination of the planned merger. The contracts provide for basic property management fees equal to 2.85% of cash collected from the Properties’ tenants.

  HRPLP compensates Realty and HCRE for services provided to it and its Properties as described above and HRPLP reimburses Realty and HCRE, at cost, for certain expenses. In particular, since HRPLP does not directly employ any individuals, the compensation and other costs related to approximately 70 employees rendering services on behalf of HRPLP and its properties are reimbursed to Realty and HCRE by HRPLP. The following table sets forth such compensation and reimbursements paid by HRPLP which are included in the Statements of Revenues and Certain Operating Expenses:

Entity

Reimbursed

Reimbursement of costs HCRE 986,539  3,932,204 

F-6



4.   COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

  M&T Bank, formerly Allfirst Bank, the principal tenant of the Allfirst Building, has an option to purchase the building from HRPLP for $28,000,000 in 2006.

  The environmental laws of the federal government and of certain state and local governments impose liability on current property owners for the cleanup of hazardous and toxic substances discharged on such property. This liability may be imposed without regard to the timing, cause or person responsible for the release of such substances onto the property. HRPLP could be subject to an additional liability in the event that it owns properties having such environmental problems. Parklane Towers, as well as certain other properties to a lesser extent, are known to contain asbestos. Removal of asbestos at HRPLP’s properties is not required because it is cementitious, it is not friable, and because the procedures in HRPLP’s site environmental program Operations and Maintenance Manual are performed as required.

Introduction to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

The following unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2004, reflects the financial position of the Company as if the transactions described in the footnotes to the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements were completed on March 31, 2004. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statements of income for the three months ended March 31, 2004, and the year ended December 31, 2003, present the results of operations of the Company as if the transactions described in the notes to the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements were completed on January 1, 2003. These unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in connection with the financial statements of the Company for the three months ended March 31, 2004, included in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2003, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K and the financial statements included in Item 7(a) of this Form 8-K. These unaudited pro forma financial statements are not necessarily indicative of the expected results of operations of the Company for any future period. Differences will result if the acquisition of Hallwood Realty Partners, L.P. is not completed as planned. Differences could also result from, among other considerations, future changes in the Company’s portfolio of investments, changes in interest rates, changes in the capital structure of the Company, changes in property level operating expenses, and changes in property level revenues including rents expected to be received on leases in place or signed during and after 2003.

Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet Adjustments

(A)   Represents the impact of the Company's pending acquisition and related financing of Hallwood Realty Partners, L.P., or Hallwood, in July 2004 which is expected to be funded with borrowings under the Company’s revolving credit facility and cash on hand. In addition to the $250,000 estimated cash purchase price, we expect to assume approximately $206,000 of Hallwood’s outstanding debt and prepay approximately $100,000 of such debt at or shortly after closing. We expect to record premiums on the remaining Hallwood debt reflecting the difference between market and in place interest rates. We believe at the time of the acquisition Hallwood will have net working capital of approximately $57,000. After deducting estimated debt repayment premiums, transaction related fees and costs and certain adjustments based on contract terms, we believe the estimated aggregate acquisition cost to be approximately $430,000. The estimated purchase price of Hallwood is subject to change based on contractual terms of the purchase agreements.

(B)   Represents the impact of the Company’s acquisition subsequent to March 31, 2004, through May 31, 2004, of one property located in Memphis, TN, which was funded with cash on hand.
