REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS

Board of Directors and Stockholders of
Reckson Associates Realty Corp.

We have audited the statement of revenues and certain expenses of the 14 properties known as The Eastridge Portfolio, which are located in Westchester County, New York (the “Property”) for the year ended December 31, 2004. The financial statement is the responsibility of the Property’s owner. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on this financial statement based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statement is free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statement. 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 audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

The accompanying statement of revenues and certain expenses was prepared for the purpose of complying with Rule 3-14 of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission for inclusion in Form 8-K of Reckson Associates Realty Corp., and is not intended to be a complete presentation of the Property’s revenues and expenses.

In our opinion, the financial statement referred to above presents fairly, in all material respects, the revenues and certain expenses of the Property, as described in Note 1, for the year ended December 31, 2004, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

EASTRIDGE PORTFOLIO, WESTCHESTER COUNTY, NEW YORK
NOTES TO THE STATEMENTS OF REVENUES AND CERTAIN EXPENSES

1. Organization and Significant Accounting Policies

Presented herein are the statements of revenues and certain expenses related to the operation of an office building portfolio known as the Eastridge Portfolio, which is comprised of 14 office buildings located in Westchester County, New York (the “Property”). On December 29, 2005, a subsidiary of Reckson Associates Realty Corp. acquired the Property pursuant to a purchase agreement entered into on December 7, 2005.

The accompanying statements of revenues and certain expenses have been prepared in accordance with the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission for the acquisition of real estate properties. Accordingly, the statements of revenues and certain expenses exclude certain expenses that may not be comparable to those expected to be incurred by the Property in the proposed future operations of the aforementioned property. Items excluded consist of interest, depreciation, amortization and other expenses not directly associated with the future operations.

2. Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Statements of Revenues and Certain Expenses

The preparation of the statements of revenues and certain expenses in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires the Property’s owner to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the statements of revenues and certain expenses and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

3. Revenue Recognition

Minimum rental income is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the tenant leases. Space is leased to tenants under leases ranging from 1 to 11 years. The leases generally also require that the tenant reimburse the landlord for increases in certain operating costs, real estate taxes and ground rents above base year costs.

Ten tenants occupy in the aggregate approximately 28% of the rentable space in the Property. Revenues therefrom aggregated approximately 29% of the Property’s annual base rent. These leases expire at various dates between January 31, 2005 and August 31, 2015.

4. Future Rental Income

Future minimum rental payments due from tenants under non-cancelable operating leases as of December 31, 2004 are as follows:

  Year Ended        

   
  2005   $ 25,141,196  
  2006     23,796,470  
  2007     21,261,186  
  2008     18,416,162  
  2009     15,831,454  
  Thereafter     38,244,228
