BRADLEY OPERATING LIMITED PARTNERSHIP

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

1. Organization

Basis of Presentation

Bradley Operating Limited Partnership (the “Operating Partnership”) is the entity through which Heritage Property Investment Trust, Inc. (“Heritage”, or the “Company”) conducts substantially all of its business in the Midwestern United States. Through a wholly-owned subsidiary, Heritage acquired all of the general partner units of the operating partnership issued to Bradley Real Estate Inc., the former general partner of the Operating Partnership, on September 18, 2000. Through the acquisition, Heritage became the indirect general partner (through a wholly-owned subsidiary) of the Operating Partnership and through a wholly-owned subsidiary directly holds general and limited partner common units. At March 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004, the Operating Partnership owned (either directly or through subsidiaries) 106 neighborhood and community shopping centers.

Heritage is a Maryland Corporation organized as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”). Heritage was formed on July 1, 1999 and commenced operations on July 9, 1999 through the contribution of $550 million of real estate investments and related assets, net of liabilities, by Net Realty Holding Trust, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the New England Teamsters & Trucking Industry Pension Fund (“NETT”), and $25 million of cash from the Prudential Insurance Company of America (“Prudential”). Heritage qualifies as a REIT under Sections 856-860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).

The condensed consolidated financial statements of the Operating Partnership contained in this report were prepared from the books and records of the Operating Partnership without audit in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and in the opinion of management, include all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) necessary to present a fair statement of results for the interim periods presented. Amounts presented in the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2004 are derived from the audited financial statements of the Operating Partnership at that date. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year.

The condensed consolidated financial statements of the Operating Partnership include the accounts and operations of the Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Operating Partnership’s financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2004 and notes thereto as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. In addition, these financial statements should be read in conjunction with the separate consolidated financial statements of Heritage as of and for the three-month period ended March 31, 2005, which include the Operating Partnership’s results, as contained in Heritage’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2005.

2. Supplemental Cash Flow Information

During the three-month periods ended March 31, 2005 and 2004, interest paid was $9.7 million and $8.0 million, respectively.

Included in accrued expenses and other liabilities at March 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004 are accrued expenditures for real estate investments of $2.2 million and $4.7 million, respectively.

4. Investment in Joint Venture

In May 2004, the Operating Partnership acquired a 50% interest in a joint venture for the development and construction of a 302,000 square foot shopping center, of which the joint venture owns 210,000 square feet, located in a suburb of Grand Rapids, Michigan. The Operating Partnership made an initial equity investment of $3.3 million, which is being accounted for under the equity method of accounting, and provided a short-term bridge loan of approximately $9.2 million, which was repaid in November 2004. The operations of the joint venture, consisting of minor activity related to operating restaurants located on out parcels, are being reported on a 90-day lag basis. Accordingly, the operations for the period from October 1, 2004 through December 31, 2004 are included in the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of operations as Interest and Other.

The Operating Partnership has fully guaranteed the repayment of a $22 million construction loan obtained by the joint venture from Key Bank, National Association. The Key Bank loan matures in November 2006 (subject to extension). As of March 31, 2005, $14.1 million was outstanding under the construction loan. Such amount is recorded on the books and records of the joint venture. In the event the Operating Partnership is obligated to repay all or a portion of the construction loan pursuant to the guarantee, the Company (i) may remove the manager of the joint venture for cause and terminate all agreements with the manager, (ii) would receive a promissory note from the joint venture for the amount paid by the Operating Partnership together with a first priority mortgage on the shopping center, and (iii) may prohibit all distributions from the joint venture or payment of fees by the joint venture until the principal and accrued interest on the loan is repaid. The estimated fair value of the guarantee as of March 31, 2005 is not material to the Operating Partnership’s financial position. Accordingly, no liability or additional investment has been recorded related to the fair value of the guarantee.

In April 2005, in accordance with the joint venture agreement, the Operating Partnership made an additional $0.7 million contribution to the joint venture. In addition, the joint venture agreement was amended to change the income allocation and cash distributions of the joint venture.

5. Debt

Prior Line of Credit

On April 29, 2002, the Operating Partnership and Heritage Property Investment Limited Partnership (“Heritage OP”), Heritage’s other operating subsidiary, entered as co-borrowers on a joint and several basis into a three-year $350 million unsecured line of credit with a group of lenders and Fleet National Bank, as agent. Heritage and certain of Heritage’s other subsidiaries guaranteed this prior line of credit. This line of credit was used principally to fund growth opportunities and for working capital purposes. At March 31, 2004, $196 million was outstanding on the prior line of credit, all of which was carried on the Operating Partnership's balance sheet.

Interest on this line of credit was determined at either the lender’s base rate or a floating rate based on a spread over LIBOR ranging from 80 basis points to 135 basis points, depending upon the Company’s debt rating, and required monthly payments of interest. The variable rate in effect at March 31, 2004, including the lender’s margin of 105 basis points and borrowings outstanding at the base rate, was 2.15%. In addition, this line of credit had a facility fee based on the amount committed ranging from 15 to 25 basis points, depending upon the Company’s debt rating, and required quarterly payments.

New Related Party Line of Credit

Under its terms, the prior line of credit would have matured on April 29, 2005. On March 29, 2005, Heritage entered into a new three-year $400 million unsecured line of credit with a group of lenders and Wachovia Bank, National Association, as agent, expiring March 28, 2008, subject to a one-year extension. At Heritage’s request, this new line of credit may be increased to $500 million. Heritage is the borrower under this new line of credit and the Operating Partnership, Heritage OP and certain of the Company’s other subsidiaries have guaranteed this new line of credit. This new line of credit replaces the Company’s prior line of credit and is being used principally to fund growth opportunities and for working capital purposes.

Heritage’s ability to borrow under this new line of credit is subject to ongoing compliance with a number of financial and other covenants. This new line of credit, except under some circumstances, limits Heritage’s ability to make distributions in excess of 90% of Heritage annual funds from operations. In addition, this line of credit bears interest at either the lender’s base rate or a floating rate based on a spread over LIBOR ranging from 62.5 basis points to 115 basis points, depending upon Heritage debt rating. The variable rate in effect at March 31, 2005, including the lender’s margin of 80 basis points and borrowings outstanding, was 3.52%. The new credit facility also includes a competitive bid option program that allows the Company to hold auctions amongst the participating lenders in the facility for up to fifty percent of the facility amount. In addition, this line of credit has a facility fee based on the amount committed ranging from 15 to 25 basis points, depending upon Heritage’s debt rating, and requires quarterly payments.

Upon entering into this new line of credit, Heritage established a related party line of credit with Bradley OP by advancing the proceeds from the new line of credit to the Operating Partnership. The terms of this related party line of credit facility are substantially identical to the Company’s line of credit facility and is shown as Related Party Line of Credit on the accompanying March 31, 2005 balance sheet. The Operating Partnership used these funds to repay the entire outstanding balance of the prior line of credit. As of March 31, 2005, $211 million was outstanding under this related party line of credit facility.

The Operating Partnership is in compliance with all applicable covenants under the new related party line of credit as of March 31, 2005.

Selected financial information of Heritage OP, the co-guarantor, as of and for the three-month period ended March 31, 2005 (unaudited) and as of and for the year ended December 31, 2004 (in thousands) is as follows:

Description	March 31, 2005		December 31, 2004
	(unaudited)
Real estate investments, net	$	900,217	$	905,438
Other assets	63,474		61,783
Total assets	963,691		967,221
Indebtedness (excluding line of credit) (a)	545,640		537,021
Other liabilities	44,798		54,140
Partners’ capital	373,253		376,060
Total revenue (excluding discontinued operations)	36,679		138,460
Net income	3,886		18,612

(a) The Operating Partnership and the Heritage OP are co-guarantors under the line of credit. Indebtedness includes $76.8 million and $66.0 million of intercompany advances at March 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004, respectively.

Unsecured Notes Payable

The Operating Partnership previously issued unsecured notes payable consisting of a $100 million, 7% fixed-rate issue, which matured on November 15, 2004; a $100 million, 7.2% fixed-rate issue maturing on January 15, 2008; and $1.5 million of other unsecured notes payable. On November 15, 2004, the Operating Partnership repaid all of the $100 million 7% fixed-rate issue maturing on that date. The amount of unsecured notes payable outstanding at March 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004 was $101.5 million.

Guaranty of Unsecured Notes Payable

On April 1, 2004, Heritage issued $200 million aggregate principal unsecured senior notes at an interest rate of 5.125% due April 15, 2014 with interest payable semiannually commencing on October 15, 2004. On October 15, 2004, Heritage issued $150 million aggregate principal unsecured notes (collectively, with the $200 million notes, the “Notes”) at an interest rate of 4.5%, which are due October 15, 2009, with interest payable semiannually commencing on April 15, 2005. Heritage used the proceeds of the Notes, net of original issue discount and estimated offering costs, to repay a portion of the outstanding balance under the Operating Partnership’s and Heritage OP’s prior line of credit. The Operating Partnership has provided Heritage with intercompany notes in exchange for the proceeds used to pay down the line of credit at terms substantially identical to the Notes. These intercompany notes are classified as Related Party Notes Payable in the accompanying March 31, 2005 consolidated balance sheet. The Notes may be redeemed at any time at the option of Heritage, in whole or in part, at a redemption price equal to the sum of (1) the principal amount of the notes being redeemed plus accrued interest on the notes to the redemption date and (2) a make-whole amount, if any, with respect to the notes that is designed to provide yield maintenance protection to the holders of these notes.

The Notes are senior unsecured obligations of Heritage and are guaranteed jointly and severally by the Operating Partnership and Heritage OP. Such guarantees are unsecured senior obligations of the Operating Partnership and Heritage OP and rank equally with all existing and future unsecured senior indebtedness of the Operating Partnership and Heritage OP. The Notes also contain certain financial and operating covenants, including limitations on the amount and type of indebtedness that may be incurred by Heritage, the Operating Partnership, and Heritage OP.

6. Redeemable Preferred Units

On September 7, 2004, the Operating Partnership redeemed all 1,000,000 outstanding 8.875% Series C Cumulative Redeemable Perpetual Preferred Units, at a redemption price of $25.00 per unit, plus approximately $0.413 of accrued and unpaid distributions. There were no unamortized issuance costs associated with the Series C Preferred Units, therefore, the Operating Partnership did not incur a charge in connection with this redemption.

On February 23, 2004, the Operating Partnership redeemed all 2,000,000 outstanding 8.875% Series B Cumulative Redeemable Perpetual Preferred Units, at a redemption price of $25.00 per unit, plus approximately $0.3266 of accrued and unpaid distributions. There were no unamortized issuance costs associated with the Series B Preferred Units, therefore, the Operating Partnership did not incur a charge in connection with this redemption.

7. Subsequent Event

In April 2005, the Operating Partnership, through its joint venture with Intercontinental Real Estate Corporation, acquired the Skillman Abrams Shopping Center (“Skillman Abrams”), a 133,000 square foot shopping center located in Dallas, Texas, for a total purchase price of approximately $19 million, including assumed mortgage debt. The Operating Partnership has a minority interest in the joint venture and an affiliate is the property manager of Skillman Abrams pursuant to a property management agreement.

The factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from current expectations include financial performance and operations of our shopping centers, including our tenants, real estate conditions, current and future bankruptcies of our tenants, execution of shopping center redevelopment programs, our ability to finance our operations, successful completion of renovations, completion of pending acquisitions, the availability of additional acquisitions, execution of joint venture opportunities, changes in economic, business, competitive market and regulatory conditions, acts of terrorism or war and other risks detailed in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004 and from time to time in other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The forward-looking statements contained herein represent our judgment as of the date of this report, and we caution readers not to place undue reliance on such statements.

All references to “we,” “us,” “our,” “ours” or “Heritage” in this report refer to Heritage Property Investment Trust, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries, unless the context indicates otherwise. All references to “Bradley OP” or the “Operating Partnership” in this report refer to Bradley Operating Limited Partnership, a subsidiary of Heritage, and its subsidiaries.

Overview

Bradley Operating Limited Partnership, or Bradley OP, is one of the legal entities through which Heritage Property Investment Trust, Inc., or Heritage, a fully integrated, self-administered and self-managed real estate investment trust, or “REIT,” conducts substantially all of its business and owns (either directly or through subsidiaries) substantially all of its assets. Heritage is one of the nation’s largest owners of neighborhood and community shopping centers, with properties located in the Eastern, Midwestern and Southwestern United States. As of March 31, 2005, Heritage had a shopping center portfolio consisting of 164 shopping centers, located in 29 states and totaling approximately 33.7 million square feet of GLA, of which approximately 28.0 million square feet was Company-owned GLA.

Heritage conducts its business exclusively through its subsidiaries and primarily through its two operating partnerships, Heritage Property Investment Limited Partnership, or Heritage OP, and Bradley OP. Bradley OP is a Delaware limited partnership and is the primary entity through which Heritage conducts its operations in the Midwest. As of March 31, 2005, Bradley OP and its subsidiaries owned 106 shopping centers, located in 21 states and totaling approximately 17.5 million square feet of Company-owned GLA.

Although we generally manage the affairs of Bradley OP and Heritage OP in the same manner, we are operating two distinct operating partnerships as we have elected not to merge or combine Heritage OP and Bradley OP as a legal matter at this time. We continue to act as the sole general partner and hold of all of the partnership interests in Heritage OP. Through our wholly-owned subsidiary, we are also the sole general partner of Bradley OP and manage and conduct the business of Bradley OP and its portfolio of real estate properties in accordance with the Bradley OP limited partnership agreement. Our board of directors manages the affairs of Bradley OP by directing the affairs of Heritage. Unless otherwise specifically stated, the discussion below refers to Heritage and Bradley OP together.

Our operating strategy is to own and manage a quality portfolio of community and neighborhood shopping centers that will provide stable cash flow and investment returns. Our focus is to own primarily grocer-anchored centers with a diverse and multi-anchored tenant base in attractive geographic locations with strong demographics. We derive substantially all of our revenues from rentals and recoveries received from tenants under existing leases on each of our properties. Our operating results therefore depend primarily on the ability of our tenants to make required rental payments.

Generally, we do not expect that our net operating income will deviate significantly in the short-term. This is because our leases with our tenants provide us a stable cash flow over the long-term. In addition, other than in circumstances such as higher than anticipated snow removal costs, utility expenses or real estate taxes, our operating expenses generally remain predictable.

However, as an owner of community and neighborhood shopping centers, our performance is linked to economic conditions in the retail industry in those markets in which our centers are located. The retail sector continues to change dramatically as a result of continued industry consolidation due to the continuing strength of Wal-Mart and large retail bankruptcies resulting in an excess amount of available retail space and greater competition. We believe that the nature of the properties that we primarily own and invest in—grocer and multi-anchored neighborhood and community shopping centers—provides a more stable revenue flow in uncertain economic times, as they are more resistant to economic down cycles. This stability is due to the fact that consumers still need to purchase food and other goods found at grocers, even in difficult economic times.

In the face of these challenging market conditions, we follow a dual growth strategy. First, we continue to focus on increasing our internal growth by leveraging our existing tenant relationships to improve the performance of our existing shopping center portfolio. During 2002, 2003, and the first quarter of 2004, we were adversely affected by large retail bankruptcies that created vacant space within our portfolio and by the increasingly competitive leasing environment resulting from the economic downturn during the early part of this decade. However, as a result of our efforts to re-let space, including space recovered from bankrupt tenants, as well as the improvement in the overall performance of our portfolio and improving economic conditions within our markets, we experienced an increase of approximately 2.4% and 4.5% in our same property net operating income during 2004 and the first three months of 2005, respectively (after deducting lease termination activity). We anticipate our same property operating performance for 2005 will be consistent with our performance during 2004.

During 2004, in order to re-let vacant space within our portfolio, we incurred higher revenue enhancing capital expenditures, such as tenant improvements and leasing commissions, than in prior periods as we re-positioned several of our centers for future growth. We anticipate incurring additional revenue enhancing capital expenditures during 2005 as we seek further opportunities to reposition vacant space.

Secondly, we focus on achieving external growth by the expansion of our portfolio and we will continue to pursue targeted acquisitions of primarily grocer and multi-anchored neighborhood and community shopping centers in attractive markets with strong economic and demographic characteristics. We will pursue acquisitions in our existing markets as well as in new markets where a portfolio of properties might be available to enable us to establish a platform for further growth. In recent years, the market for acquisitions has been particularly competitive with a greater number of potential buyers pursuing properties. The low cap rate environment and reduced costs of funds have further served to dramatically increase prices paid for shopping center properties. As a result, our effort to expand our portfolio through acquisition has been adversely affected. We expect these conditions to persist for the foreseeable future.

As a means of increasing our access to potential acquisitions and alternative sources of capital to fund future acquisitions, we are pursuing joint venture arrangements with third party developers and institutional investors. We completed our first joint venture arrangement with a third party developer during the second quarter of 2004. However, with respect to joint venture arrangements with third party developers, in most cases, we do not anticipate that we will recognize the full economic benefit of such arrangements for 2-3 years. In April 2005, we completed our first joint venture arrangement with an institutional investor. We anticipate that a significant amount of our acquisition activity in 2005 will be through such joint venture arrangements.

In the near future, we intend to dispose of properties that are either not a strategic fit within our overall portfolio or to take advantage of favorable market conditions. The disposition of shopping center properties may lead to short-term decreases in net operating income. However, we intend to offset any such decreases by re-investing the proceeds of such sales to grow our existing portfolio, whether through acquisition or joint venture. We may also use these sale proceeds to reduce our outstanding indebtedness, improving the quality of our balance sheet.

We currently expect to incur additional debt in connection with future acquisitions of real estate. As of March 31, 2005, we had $1.3 billion of indebtedness, of which approximately $839.1 million related to Bradley OP. Included in the indebtedness of both the Company and Bradley OP was approximately $662.4 million of unsecured indebtedness. Although we expect to assume additional secured debt in connection with the acquisition of real estate, in the future, we intend to finance our operations and growth primarily through borrowings under our line of credit facility, unsecured private or public debt offerings or by additional equity offerings. We will also pursue joint venture arrangements aimed at providing alternative sources of capital.

Critical Accounting Policies

We have identified the following critical accounting policies that affect our more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements. The preparation of our consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make judgments and estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities.

On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to revenue recognition and the allowance for doubtful accounts receivable, real estate investments and asset impairment, and derivatives used to hedge interest-rate and credit rate risks. We state these accounting policies in the notes to our consolidated financial statements and at relevant sections in this discussion and analysis. Our estimates are based on information that is currently available to us and on various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ from those estimates and those estimates could be different under varying assumptions or conditions.

Revenue Recognition

Rental income with scheduled rent increases is recognized using the straight-line method over the term of the leases commencing when the tenant takes possession of the space. The aggregate excess of rental revenue recognized on a straight-line basis over cash received under applicable lease provisions is included in accounts receivable. In addition, leases for both retail and office space generally contain provisions under which the tenants reimburse us for a portion of property operating expenses and real estate taxes incurred by us, requiring us to estimate the amount of revenue from these recoveries. Such recoveries revenue is recorded based on management’s estimate of its recovery of certain operating expenses and real estate tax expenses, pursuant to the terms contained in related leases. In addition, certain of our operating leases for retail space contain contingent rent provisions under which tenants are required to pay a percentage of their sales in excess of a specified amount as additional rent. We defer recognition of contingent rental income until those specified targets are met.

We must make estimates of the uncollectibility of our accounts receivable related to minimum rent, deferred rent, expense reimbursements and other revenue or income. We specifically analyze accounts receivable and historical bad debts, tenant concentrations, tenant creditworthiness, current economic trends and changes in our tenant payment terms when evaluating the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts receivable. These estimates have a direct impact on our net income, because a higher bad debt allowance would result in lower net income.

Real Estate Investments

At our formation in July 1999, contributed real estate investments were recorded at the carry-over basis of our predecessor, which was fair market value of the assets in conformity with GAAP applicable to pension funds. Subsequent acquisitions of real estate investments, including those acquired in connection with our acquisition of Bradley Real Estate, Inc. in September 2000 and other acquisitions since our formation, are recorded at cost. Expenditures that substantially extend the useful life of a real estate investment are capitalized. Expenditures for maintenance, repairs and betterments that do not materially extend the useful life of a real estate investment are charged to operations as incurred.

The provision for depreciation and amortization has been calculated using the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives:

Land improvements		15 years
Buildings and improvements		20-39 years
Tenant improvements		Shorter of useful life or term of related lease

We are required to make subjective assessments as to the useful lives of our properties for purposes of determining the amount of depreciation to reflect on an annual basis with respect to our properties. These assessments have a direct impact on our net income because if we were to shorten the expected useful life of our properties or improvements, we would depreciate them over fewer years, resulting in more depreciation expense and lower net income on an annual basis during these periods.

We apply Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, to recognize and measure impairment of long-lived assets. We review each real estate investment for impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value of a real estate investment may not be recoverable. The review of recoverability is based on an estimate of the future undiscounted cash flows, excluding interest charges, expected to result from the real estate investment’s use and eventual disposition. These cash flows consider factors such as expected future operating income, trends and prospects, as well as the effects of leasing demand, competition and other factors. If impairment exists due to the inability to recover the carrying value of a real estate investment, an impairment loss is recorded to the extent that the carrying value exceeds estimated fair market value, resulting in a lower net income. No such impairment losses have been recognized to date.

Real estate investments held for sale are carried at the lower of carrying amount or fair value, less cost to sell. Depreciation and amortization are suspended during the period held for sale.

We apply Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141, Business Combinations, to property acquisitions. Accordingly, the fair value of the real estate acquired is allocated to the acquired tangible assets, and identified intangible assets and liabilities, consisting of the value of above-market and below-market leases, other value of in-place leases and value of tenant relationships, based in each case on their fair values.

The fair value of the tangible assets of an acquired property is determined by valuing the property as if it were vacant, and the “as-if-vacant” value is then allocated based on management’s determination of the relative fair values of these assets. Management determines the as-if-vacant fair value of a property using methods similar to those used by independent appraisers. Factors considered by management in performing these analyses include an estimate of carrying costs during the expected lease-up periods considering current market conditions and costs to execute similar leases. In estimating carrying costs, management includes real estate taxes, insurance and other operating expenses and estimates of lost rental revenue during the expected lease-up periods based on current market demand. Management also estimates costs to execute similar leases including leasing commissions, legal and other related costs. The “as-if-vacant” value is then allocated amongst land, land improvements, building, and building improvements based on the Company’s estimate of replacement costs.

In allocating the fair value of the identified intangible assets and liabilities of an acquired property, above-market and below-market in-place lease values are recorded based on the present value (using an interest rate which reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) of the difference between (i) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to the in-place leases and (ii) management’s estimate of fair market lease rates for the corresponding in-place leases, measured over a period equal to the remaining non-cancelable term of the lease. The capitalized above-market lease values are amortized as a reduction of rental income over the remaining non-cancelable terms of the respective leases. The capitalized below-market lease values are amortized as an increase to rental income over the initial term and any fixed rate renewal periods in the respective leases.

The aggregate value of other acquired intangible assets, consisting of in-place leases and tenant relationships, is measured by the excess of (i) the purchase price paid for a property after adjusting existing in-place leases to market rental rates over (ii) the estimated fair value of the property as if vacant, determined as set forth above. This aggregate value is allocated between in-place lease values and tenant relationships, if any, based on management’s evaluation of the specific characteristics of each tenant’s lease; however, the value of tenant relationships has not been separated from in-place lease value for the additional interests in real estate entities because such value and its consequence to amortization expense is estimated to be immaterial for these particular acquisitions. Should future acquisitions of properties result in allocating material amounts to the value of tenant relationships, an amount would be separately allocated and amortized over the estimated life of the relationship. The value of in-place leases exclusive of the value of above-market and below-market in-place leases is amortized to expense over the remaining non-cancelable periods of the respective leases. If a lease were to be terminated prior to its stated expiration, all unamortized amounts relating to that lease would be written off.

Investments in Unconsolidated Joint Venture

Upon entering into a joint venture agreement, the Company assesses whether the joint venture is considered a variable interest entity in accordance with FASB Interpretation No. 46R, Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities (“FIN 46R”). The Company has no interests in variable interest entities as of March 31, 2005. The Company accounts for its investment in joint ventures that are not deemed to be variable interest entities pursuant to Statement of Position No. 78-9, Accounting for Investments in Real Estate Ventures (“SOP No. 78-9”) and APB No. 18, The Equity Method of Accounting for Investments in Common Stock.

As of March 31, 2005, the Company accounts for its joint venture under the equity method of accounting because it exercises significant influence over, but does not control, this entity. This investment was recorded initially at cost, as Investment in Unconsolidated Joint Ventures, and subsequently adjusted for an allocation of equity in earnings, plus cash contributions, and less cash distributions. Under the equity method of accounting, the net equity investment of the Company is reflected on the consolidated balance sheets, and the Company’s allocation of net income or loss from the joint ventures is included on the consolidated statements of operations as other income. The Company’s allocation of joint venture income or loss follows the joint venture’s distribution priorities.

In accordance with the provisions of SOP No. 78-9, the Company recognizes fees and interest received from the joint ventures relating solely to the extent of the outside partner’s interest

Hedging Activities

From time to time, we use derivative financial instruments to limit our exposure to changes in interest rates. We were not a party to any hedging agreement with respect to our floating rate debt as of March 31, 2005 or 2004. We have in the past used derivative financial instruments to manage, or hedge, interest rate risks related to our borrowings, from lines of credit to medium and long-term financings. We require that hedging derivative instruments are effective in reducing the interest rate risk exposure that they are designed to hedge. We do not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes and only enter into contracts with major financial institutions based on their credit rating and other factors.

If interest rate assumptions and other factors used to estimate a derivative’s fair value or methodologies used to determine hedge effectiveness were different, amounts reported in earnings and other comprehensive income and losses expected to be reclassified into earnings in the future could be affected.

Results of Operations

The results of operations described below are those of Bradley OP and its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis. The results below do not reflect the results of Heritage and its other subsidiaries, including Heritage OP. The operations of Bradley OP and its subsidiaries comprise approximately 58% of Heritage’s total net operating income for the three-month period ended March 31, 2005. For a discussion of the consolidated results of operations of Heritage and its subsidiaries, including Bradley OP, for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2005 and 2004, see Heritage’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2005 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The comparison of operating results for the three-month period ended March 31, 2005 and 2004 show changes in revenue and expenses resulting from net operating income for properties that Bradley OP owned for each period compared (we refer to this comparison as our “Same Property Portfolio” for the applicable period) and the changes in income before net gains attributable to our Total Portfolio. Unless otherwise indicated, increases in revenue and expenses attributable to the Total Portfolio are due to the acquisition of properties during the periods being compared. In addition, amounts reported as discontinued operations in the accompanying consolidated financial statements related to properties that have been sold prior to March 31, 2005 are excluded from the Same Property Portfolio and Total Portfolio information.

Comparison of the three-month period ended March 31, 2005 to the three-month period ended March 31, 2004.

The table below shows selected operating information for Total Portfolio and the 103 properties acquired prior to January 1, 2004 that remained in the Total Portfolio through March 31, 2005, which constitute the Same Property Portfolio for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2005 and 2004 (in thousands):

* For a detailed discussion of net operating income, including the reasons management believes NOI is useful to investors, and a reconciliation of NOI to a GAAP measure, see page 25.

The increase in rental revenue including termination fees for our Same Property Portfolio is primarily the result of an increase in minimum rent attributable to increased occupancy and leases and rollovers of existing tenants at higher rental rates.

Percentage rent revenue decreased for our Same Property Portfolio primarily due to lower sales volume for leases with significant percentage rent provisions and the uncertainty of realization that certain tenant sales thresholds have been met.

Recoveries revenue increased for our Same Property Portfolio primarily as a result of an increase in property operating recovery income of $0.7 million. Property operating recovery income increased as a result of a $0.2 million increase in property operating expenses and an increase in recovery rates due to higher occupancy.

Other property income increased for our Same Property Portfolio primarily as a result of additional $1.0 million of tax incentive financing income at one of our shopping centers. This increase was offset by $0.2 million of real estate tax abatement recognized in the quarter ended March 31, 2004.

Property operating expenses in our Same Property Portfolio increased primarily due to $0.2 million of increased snow removal costs and $0.1 million increased cleaning costs. These increases were partially offset by a decrease of $0.1 million decrease in insurance costs.

Real estate tax expense decreased primarily as a result of decreased valuations assessed for certain properties primarily located in the Mid-West.

Interest expense increased primarily as a result of an increase in overall indebtedness and an increase in interest rates. Overall indebtedness increased as a result of Heritage’s $200 million 5.125% bond offering completed in April 2004 and $150 million 4.5% bond offering completed in October 2004. The net proceeds of these offerings were advanced to Bradley OP in exchange for intercompany notes payable. In November 2004, Bradley OP used portions of these proceeds to repay $100 million 7% bonds previously outstanding with the Operating Partnership. Interest expense for the related party line of credit facility increased $0.4 million due to higher LIBOR rates partially offset by lower average balances in the first quarter of 2005. The interest rate on the related party line of credit was 3.52% for the quarter ended March 31, 2005. The interest rate on the line of credit was 2.15% for the quarter ended March 31, 2004.

General and administrative expenses increased by $0.7 million from March 31, 2004 to March 31, 2005. Heritage allocates 100% of its general and administrative expenses to its subsidiaries, including costs associated with Bradley OP. For costs specifically identifiable to a subsidiary, Heritage performs a direct allocation. Remaining costs are allocated based on the square footage of properties owned by each subsidiary. During the three months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004, Heritage allocated approximately 63% of these remaining costs to Bradley OP. Heritage's general and administrative expenses, consisting primarily of salaries, bonuses, employee benefits, insurance and other corporate-level expenses, increased $1.3 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2005 as compared with the three-month period ended March 31, 2004. The increase was primarily due to increased personnel costs of $0.7 million and increased professional fees of $0.3 million. Personnel costs increased due to higher payroll costs associated with a larger workforce as well as an increase in stock compensation expense in the first quarter of 2005 as compared to the first quarter of 2004. The increase in professional fees was due to costs associated with Heritage's compliance with provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act as well as increased audit fees.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At March 31, 2005, Heritage had $2.7 million and Bradley OP had $1.1 million in available cash and cash equivalents. As a REIT, Heritage is required to distribute at least 90% of its taxable income to its stockholders on an annual basis. Bradley OP also generally distributes all of its taxable income. Therefore, as a general matter, it is unlikely that either Heritage or Bradley OP will have any substantial cash balances that could be used to meet its respective liquidity needs. Instead, these needs must be met from cash generated from operations and external sources of capital.

At March 31, 2005, Heritage had $1.3 billion of indebtedness. This indebtedness had a weighted average interest rate of 6.16% with an average maturity of 5.19 years. As of March 31, 2005, Heritage’s market capitalization was $2.7 billion, resulting in a debt-to-total market capitalization ratio of approximately 48.0%.

At March 31, 2005, Bradley OP had $839.1 million of indebtedness, including the full balance of amounts outstanding under the related party line of credit facility. This indebtedness had a weighted average interest rate of 5.35% with an average maturity of 5.24 years.

Short-Term Liquidity Requirements

The short-term liquidity requirements of Heritage and Bradley OP are substantially identical and are referred to together in the discussion below. These short-term liquidity requirements consist primarily of funds necessary to pay for operating expenses and other expenditures directly associated with our properties, including:

• Recurring maintenance capital expenditures necessary to properly maintain our properties;

• Interest expense and scheduled principal payments on outstanding indebtedness;

• Capital expenditures incurred to facilitate the leasing of space at our properties, including tenant improvements and leasing commissions; and

• Future distributions paid to our stockholders and partners.

We incur maintenance capital expenditures at our properties, which include such expenses as parking lot improvements, roof repairs and replacements and other non-revenue enhancing capital expenditures. Maintenance capital expenditures were approximately $1.4 million, or $0.05 per square foot, for the three months ended March 31, 2005, of which, approximately $0.8 million, or $0.04 per square foot, related to properties within the Bradley OP portfolio. We also expect to incur revenue enhancing capital expenditures such as tenant improvements and leasing commissions in connection with the leasing and re-leasing of retail space.

We believe that we qualify and we intend to continue to qualify as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code. As a REIT, we are allowed to reduce taxable income by all or a portion of our distributions paid to shareholders. We believe that our existing working capital and cash provided by operations will be sufficient to allow us to pay distributions necessary to enable us to continue to qualify as a REIT. However, under some circumstances, we may be required to pay distributions in excess of cash available for those distributions in order to meet these distribution requirements, and we may need to borrow funds, including under our line of credit facility, to pay distributions in the future.

Historically, we have satisfied our short-term liquidity requirements through our existing working capital and cash provided by our operations as well as with borrowings under our line of credit facility. In addition, we believe that our existing working capital and cash provided by operations should be sufficient to meet our short-term liquidity requirements. Cash flows provided by operating activities increased to $17.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2005 from $16.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2004. The increase in cash flows from operations is primarily attributable to the combined effect of decrease in accounts receivable and other assets and an increase in accounts payable. As of March 31, 2005, we had an outstanding balance on our $400 million line of credit facility of $211 million, leaving us with $189 million of additional borrowings under the line of credit. At our request, our line of credit may be increased to $500 million.

There are a number of factors that could adversely affect our cash flow. The continuation of an economic downturn in one or more of our markets may impede the ability of our tenants to make lease payments and may impact our ability to renew leases or re-lease space as leases expire. In addition, an economic downturn or recession could also lead to an increase in tenant bankruptcies, increases in our overall vacancy rates or declines in rents we can charge to re-lease properties upon expiration of current leases. In all of these cases, our cash flow would be adversely affected.

As of March 31, 2005, we had 7 tenants operating under bankruptcy protection, of which 4 are in Bradley OP's portfolio, the largest of which is Rhodes Furniture. The leases directly impacted by these bankruptcy filings totaled approximately 0.7% of our annualized base rent for all leases in which tenants were in occupancy at March 31, 2005, of which 0.3% relates to properties within Bradley OP’s portfolio. In addition, subsequent to March 31, 2005, one additional tenant within Bradley OP's portfolio, representing approximately 0.1% of their annualized base rent, filed for bankruptcy protection.

Any future bankruptcies of tenants in our portfolio, particularly major or anchor tenants, may have additional negative impact on our operating results and cash flows.

Long-Term Liquidity Requirements

The long-term liquidity requirements of Heritage and Bradley OP are substantially identical and are referred to together in the discussion below. These long-term liquidity requirements consist primarily of funds necessary to pay for scheduled debt maturities, renovations, redevelopment, expansions and other non-recurring capital expenditures that are required periodically to our properties, and the costs associated with acquisitions of properties and third party developer joint venture opportunities that we pursue.

Historically, we have satisfied our long-term liquidity requirements through various sources of capital, including our existing working capital, cash provided by operations, our line of credit, bridge financing, through the issuance of additional debt and equity securities and through long-term property mortgage indebtedness. We believe that these sources of capital will continue to be available to us in the future to fund our long-term liquidity requirements. We may also enter into joint ventures with institutional investors as an alternative source of capital. Although we expect to assume additional secured debt in connection with the acquisition of real estate, in the future we intend to satisfy our long-term liquidity requirements primarily through the other sources outlined above. Heritage engages in financing and other transactions utilizing these sources of capital exclusively for its subsidiaries’, including Bradley OP’s, use.

However, there are certain factors that may have a material adverse effect on our access to these capital sources. Our ability to incur additional debt is dependent upon a number of factors, including our degree of leverage, the value of our unencumbered assets, Heritage’s credit rating and borrowing restrictions imposed by existing lenders. Currently, Heritage has a credit rating from three major rating agencies—Standard & Poor’s, which has given us a rating of BBB-, Moody’s Investor Service, which has given us a rating of Baa3, and Fitch Ratings, which has given us a rating of BBB-, all three have stated the outlook as stable. A downgrade in outlook or rating by a rating agency can occur at any time if the agency perceives adverse change in Heritage’s financial condition, results of operations or ability to service our debt.

Based on our internal valuation of our properties, the estimated value of our properties exceeds the outstanding amount of mortgage debt encumbering those properties as of March 31, 2005. Therefore, at this time, we believe that additional funds could be obtained, either in the form of additional unsecured borrowings or mortgage debt. In addition, we believe that we could obtain additional financing without violating the financial covenants contained in our unsecured public notes.

Heritage’s ability to raise funds through the issuance of equity securities is dependent upon, among other things, general market conditions for REITs and market perceptions about us. We will continue to analyze which source of capital is most advantageous to us at any particular point in time, but the equity markets may not be consistently available on terms that are attractive or at all.

Environmental Matters

We currently have approximately eighteen properties in our portfolio that are undergoing or have been identified as requiring some form of remediation (including monitoring for compliance) to clean up contamination. In some cases, contamination has migrated into the groundwater beneath our properties from adjacent properties, such as service stations. In other cases, contamination has resulted from on-site uses by current or former owners or tenants, such as gas stations or dry cleaners, which have released pollutants such as gasoline or dry-cleaning solvents into soil and/or groundwater. Based on our experience with properties in our portfolio, we believe the cost of remediation for contamination will range from approximately $10,000 to $300,000 per property. Any failure to properly remediate the contamination at our properties may result in liability to federal, state or local governments for damages to natural resources or liability to third parties for property damage or personal injury and may adversely affect our ability to operate, lease or sell that property.

Of the approximately eighteen properties cited above, half of those properties were contributed to us by Net Realty Holding Trust, our largest stockholder, upon our formation in July 1999. These contributed properties (together with approximately ten other contributed properties for which no remediation is currently taking place) are the subject of an indemnity arrangement under which Net Realty Holding Trust has agreed to indemnify us against environmental liabilities up to $50 million in the aggregate. Since our formation, we have been reimbursed by Net Realty Holding Trust for approximately $2.2 million of environmental costs pursuant to this indemnity. Although we do not believe that the aggregate indemnity amount will be needed, we believe that Net Realty Holding Trust has the ability to perform under its indemnity up to the aggregate amount. In addition, each of the properties for which we are actively pursuing remediation to clean up contamination is covered by this indemnity.

With respect to the remaining properties cited above not covered by the Net Realty Holding Trust indemnity, no clean-up activities are currently taking place and our requisite on-going responsibilities are to monitor those properties for compliance and to determine if any remediation or other action may be required in the future. We believe that the costs of monitoring these properties are not material, individually or in the aggregate, to our financial condition and we have established reserves for such costs.

(*) Designates indebtedness of Bradley OP or one of its subsidiaries. Total principal payments owed as of March 31, 2005 for Bradley OP and its subsidiaries was $831,848, which does not reflect the unamortized mortgage loan premiums totaling $7,216 related to the assumption of nine mortgage loans with above-market contractual interest rates.

(1) Represents the period from April 1, 2005 through December 31, 2005.

(2) The aggregate repayment amount of $632,547 does not reflect the unamortized mortgage loan premiums totaling $12,852 related to the assumption of fifteen mortgage loans with above-market contractual interest rates

(3) Property is encumbered by two mortgage loans maturing in July 2007

(4) The aggregate repayment amount of $451,490 does not reflect the unamortized original discounts of $1,677 related to the April and October 2004 bond issuances.

As of March 31, 2005, the indebtedness described in the table above requires principal amortization and balloon payments of $42 million for the remainder of 2005. It is likely that we will not have sufficient funds on hand to repay the remaining balloon amounts at maturity. We currently expect to refinance future balloon payments through borrowings under our new unsecured credit facility. We may also expect to refinance this debt through unsecured private or public debt offerings, through additional debt financings secured by individual properties or groups of properties or through additional equity offerings.

As of March 31, 2005, in addition to the repayment obligations under the indebtedness described above, we (including Bradley OP) had future contractual payment obligations relating to construction contracts, ground leases, and leases for the rental of office space as follows (in thousands):

	2005 (1)		2006	2007	2008	2009	Thereafter	Total
Construction contracts and tenant improvement obligations	$	14,688	609	—	—	—	—	$	15,297

As of March 31, 2005, Bradley OP and its subsidiaries had future contractual payment obligations relating to construction contracts, ground leases, and leases for the rental of office space which are separately described below (in thousands):

	2005 (1)		2006	2007	2008	2009	Thereafter	Total
Construction contracts and tenant improvement obligations	$	7,772	557	—	—	—	—	$	8,329
Ground leases	121		161	161	161	155	11,525	12,284
Total	$	7,893	718	161	161	155	11,525	$		20,613

(1) Represents the period from April 1, 2005 through December 31, 2005

In addition to the contractual payment obligations included in the tables above, we have various existing utility and service contracts with vendors related to our property management. We enter into these contracts in the ordinary course of business, which vary based on usage and may extend beyond one year. These contracts are generally for one year or less and include terms that provide for termination with insignificant or no cancellation penalties.

The repayment obligations reflected in the above tables do not reflect interest payments on debt. In addition, we have obligations under a retirement benefit plan which are not included in the above Heritage table. These obligations related to the retirement benefit plan are more fully described in Heritage’s 2004 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Funding requirements for retirement benefits after 2005 cannot be estimated due to the significant variability in the assumptions required to project the timing of future cash payments.

In May 2004, Bradley OP entered into a joint venture agreement with a third party for the development and construction of a shopping center. Under the joint venture agreement, at any time subsequent to the second anniversary of the completion of the shopping center, which is estimated to occur in the spring of 2006, Bradley OP may be required to purchase the third party’s joint venture interest. The purchase price for this interest would be at the estimated fair market value. This contingent obligation is not reflected in the tables above.

Heritage and Bradley OP have fully guaranteed the repayment of a $22 million construction loan obtained by the joint venture from Key Bank, National Association, which is an off-balance sheet arrangement. The Key Bank loan matures in November 2006 (subject to extension). As of March 31, 2005, $14.1 million is outstanding under the construction loan. Such amount is recorded on the books and records of the joint venture. In the event we are obligated to repay all or a portion of the construction loan pursuant to the guarantee, we (i) may remove the manager of the joint venture for cause and terminate all agreements with the manager, (ii) would receive a promissory note from the joint venture for the amount paid by us together with a first priority mortgage on the shopping center, and (iii) may prohibit all distributions from the joint venture or payment of fees by the joint venture until the principal and accrued interest on the loan is repaid. The estimated fair value of the guarantee as of March 31, 2005 is not material to our financial position. Accordingly, no liability or additional investment has been recorded related to the fair value of the guarantee.

Prior Line of Credit

On April 29, 2002, we entered into a three-year $350 million unsecured line of credit with a group of lenders and Fleet National Bank, as agent. Bradley OP and Heritage OP were the borrowers under the line of credit and we, and certain of our other subsidiaries, guaranteed this line of credit, which was used principally to fund growth opportunities and for working capital purposes. This line of credit was repaid with proceeds from our new line of credit (see below). The entire outstanding amount under the prior line of credit was shown on the financial statements of Bradley OP.

New Line of Credit

Under its terms, the prior line of credit would have matured on April 29, 2005. On March 29, 2005, we entered into a new three-year $400 million unsecured line of credit with a group of lenders and Wachovia Bank, National Association, as agent, expiring March 28, 2008, subject to a one-year extension. At our request, this new line of credit may be increased to $500 million. We are the borrower under this new line of credit and Bradley OP, Heritage OP and certain of our other subsidiaries, have guaranteed this new line of credit. This new line of credit replaces our prior line of credit and is being used principally to fund growth opportunities and for working capital purposes. Our ability to borrow under this new line of credit is subject to our ongoing compliance with a number of financial and other covenants. This new line of credit, except under some circumstances, limits our ability to make distributions in excess of 90% of our annual funds from operations. In addition, this new line of credit bears interest at either the lender’s base rate or a floating rate based on a spread over LIBOR ranging from 62.5 basis points to 115 basis points, depending upon our debt rating. The variable rate in effect at March 31, 2005, including the lender’s margin of 80 basis points and borrowings outstanding, was 3.52%. This new credit facility also includes a competitive bid option that allows the Company to hold auctions amongst the participating lenders in the facility for up to fifty percent of the facility amount. In addition, this line of credit has a facility fee based on the amount committed ranging from 15 to 25 basis points, depending upon Heritage’s debt rating, and requires quarterly payments.

Upon entering into this new line of credit, we established a related party line of credit with Bradley OP by advancing the proceeds from the new line of credit to Bradley OP. The terms of this related party line of credit facility are substantially identical to the our line of credit facility and is shown as Related Party Line of Credit on the accompanying Bradley OP March 31, 2005 balance sheet. Bradley OP used these funds to repay the entire outstanding balance of the prior line of credit. As of March 31, 2005, $211 million was outstanding under the related party line of credit facility

We believe we are in compliance with all of the financial covenants under this new line of credit as of March 31, 2005. However, if our properties do not perform as expected, or if unexpected events occur that require us to borrow additional funds, compliance with these covenants may become difficult and may restrict our ability to pursue some business initiatives. In addition, these financial covenants may restrict our ability to pursue particular acquisition transactions, including for example, acquiring a portfolio of properties that is highly leveraged. These constraints on acquisitions could significantly impede our growth.

Debt Offerings

Heritage Notes

Heritage has outstanding two series of unsecured notes. These notes were issued pursuant to the terms of two separate but substantially identical indentures Heritage entered into with LaSalle National Bank, as trustee. These indentures contain various covenants, including covenants that restrict the amount of indebtedness that may be incurred by Heritage and its subsidiaries. Specifically, for as long as the debt securities issued under these indentures are outstanding:

• Heritage is not permitted to incur additional indebtedness if the aggregate principal amount of all indebtedness of Heritage and its subsidiaries would be greater than 60% of the total assets, as defined, of Heritage and its subsidiaries.

• Heritage is not permitted to incur any indebtedness if the ratio of Heritage’s consolidated income available for debt service to the annual debt service charge for the four consecutive fiscal quarters most recently ended prior to the date the additional indebtedness is to be incurred would be less than 1.5:1 on a pro forma basis.

• Heritage is not permitted to incur additional indebtedness if, after giving effect to any additional indebtedness, the total secured indebtedness of Heritage and its subsidiaries is greater than 40% of the total assets, as defined, of Heritage and its subsidiaries.

• Heritage and its subsidiaries may not at any time own total unencumbered assets equal to less than 150% of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of unsecured indebtedness of Heritage and its subsidiaries.

These debt securities have been guaranteed by Heritage OP and Bradley OP.

Notes due 2009. On October 15, 2004, Heritage completed the issuance and sale of $150 million principal amount of 4.50% notes due 2009 (the “2009 Notes”). The 2009 Notes bear interest at a rate of 4.50% and mature on October 15, 2009. The 2009 Notes may be redeemed at any time at our option, in whole or in part, at a redemption price equal to the sum of (1) the principal amount of the notes being redeemed plus accrued interest on the notes to the redemption date and (2) a make-whole amount, if any, with respect to the notes that is designed to provide yield maintenance protection to the holders of these notes.

Through a subsidiary, we contributed the net proceeds of the offering of the 2009 Notes to Bradley OP and received an intercompany note from Bradley OP. This intercompany note is classified as related party notes payable in the accompanying 2004 consolidated balance sheet. All of the net proceeds of the offering of the 2009 Notes were then used by Bradley OP to reduce the outstanding balance under our prior line of credit.

Notes due 2014. On April 1, 2004, Heritage completed the issuance and sale of $200 million principal amount of 5.125% notes due 2014 (the “2014 Notes”). The 2014 Notes bear interest at a rate of 5.125% and mature on April 15, 2004. The 2014 Notes may be redeemed at any time at our option, in whole or in part, at a redemption price equal to the sum of (1) the principal amount of the notes being redeemed plus accrued interest on the notes to the redemption date and (2) a make-whole amount, if any, with respect to the notes that is designed to provide yield maintenance protection to the holders of these notes.

Through a subsidiary, we contributed the net proceeds of the offering of the 2014 Notes to Bradley OP and received an intercompany note from Bradley OP. This intercompany note is classified as related party notes payable in the accompanying 2004 consolidated balance sheet. All of the net proceeds of the offering of the 2014 Notes were then used by Bradley OP to reduce the outstanding balance under our prior line of credit.

We believe we are in compliance with all applicable covenants under these indentures as of March 31, 2005.

Bradley Notes

Prior to our acquisition of Bradley Real Estate, Inc. (“Bradley”), Bradley OP completed the sale of three series of senior, unsecured debt securities. These debt securities were issued pursuant to the terms of an indenture and three supplemental indentures entered into by Bradley OP with LaSalle National Bank, as trustee, beginning in 1997. The indenture and three supplemental indentures contain various covenants, including covenants which restrict the amount of indebtedness that may be incurred by Bradley OP and those of our subsidiaries which are owned directly or indirectly by Bradley OP. Specifically, for as long as these debt securities are outstanding:

• Bradley OP is not permitted to incur additional indebtedness if the aggregate principal amount of all indebtedness of Bradley OP and its subsidiaries would be greater than 60% of the total assets, as defined, of Bradley OP and its subsidiaries.

• Bradley OP is not permitted to incur any indebtedness if the ratio of Bradley OP’s consolidated income available for debt service to the annual debt service charge for the four consecutive fiscal quarters most recently ended prior to the date the additional indebtedness is to be incurred would be less than 1.5:1 on a pro forma basis.

• Bradley OP is not permitted to incur additional indebtedness if, after giving effect to any additional indebtedness, the total secured indebtedness of Bradley OP and its subsidiaries is greater than 40% of the total assets, as defined, of Bradley OP and its subsidiaries.

• Bradley OP and its subsidiaries may not at any time own total unencumbered assets equal to less than 150% of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of unsecured indebtedness of Bradley OP and its subsidiaries.

For purposes of these covenants, any indebtedness incurred by Heritage, Heritage OP or any of Heritage’s subsidiaries that are owned directly or indirectly by Heritage OP is not included as indebtedness of Bradley OP.

Notes due 2006. In March 2000, Bradley OP completed the offering of $75 million aggregate principal amount of its 8.875% Notes due 2006 (the “2006 Notes”). The 2006 Notes bear interest at 8.875% per year and mature on March 15, 2006. The 2006 Notes may be redeemed at any time at the option of Bradley OP, in whole or in part, at a redemption price equal to the sum of (1) the principal amount of the 2006 Notes being redeemed plus accrued interest on the 2006 Notes to the redemption date and (2) a make-whole amount, if any, with respect to the 2006 Notes that is designed to provide yield maintenance protection to the holders of these notes. In connection with the Bradley acquisition, we repurchased approximately $73.5 million of the 2006 Notes at a purchase price equal to the principal and accrued interest on the 2006 Notes as of the date of purchase, so that approximately $1.5 million of the 2006 Notes were outstanding as of March 31, 2005.

Notes due 2008. In January 1998, Bradley OP completed the offering of $100 million aggregate principal amount of its 7.2% Notes due 2008 (the “2008 Notes”). The 2008 Notes bear interest at 7.2% per year and mature on January 15, 2008. The 2008 Notes may be redeemed at any time at the option of Bradley OP, in whole or in part, at a redemption price equal to the sum of (1) the principal amount of the 2008 Notes being redeemed plus accrued interest on the 2008 Notes to the redemption date and (2) a make-whole amount, if any, with respect to the 2008 Notes that is designed to provide yield maintenance protection to the holders of these notes.

We believe Bradley OP is in compliance with all applicable covenants under these indentures as of March 31, 2005.

Heritage Equity Offerings

In April 2002, Heritage completed its initial public offering and sold 14,080,556 shares of common stock at a price of $25.00 per share resulting in net proceeds of $323 million. The net proceeds of the IPO were used to repay outstanding indebtedness, including indebtedness of Bradley OP. In connection with our IPO, all shares of Series A Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock and redeemable equity then outstanding converted automatically into shares of common stock on a one for one basis.

In December 2003, Heritage completed a secondary public offering of common stock and sold a total of 3,932,736 shares at a net price of $28.27 per share, resulting in net proceeds of $111 million. Net Realty Holding Trust, Heritage’s largest stockholder, exercised its contractual preemptive right and purchased 1,563,558, or approximately 40% of the shares we sold in the offering, on the same terms as third parties purchased shares. The net proceeds of this offering were used to repay outstanding indebtedness, including indebtedness of Bradley OP.

Related Party Transactions

The TJX Companies

In July 1999, Bernard Cammarata became a member of the Heritage board of directors. Mr. Cammarata is non-executive Chairman of the Board of TJX Companies, Inc., Heritage’s largest tenant, and was President and Chief Executive Officer of TJX until 2000. Annualized base rent from the TJX Companies represents approximately 5.6% of our total annualized base rent and 2.9% of Bradley OP’s total annualized base rent, for all leases in which tenants were in occupancy at March 31, 2005. TJX pays rent in accordance with 51 written leases at our properties.

Ahold USA

In July 1999, William M. Vaughn, III became a member of the Heritage board of directors. Mr. Vaughn is Senior Vice President, Labor Relations of Ahold USA, Inc., the parent company of Giant Foods and Stop & Shop. Mr. Vaughn is also a member of the Board of Trustees of Heritage’s largest stockholder, Net Realty Holding Trust. Annualized base rent from Ahold USA and its subsidiary companies represent approximately 0.6% of Heritage’s total annualized base rent for all leases in which tenants were in occupancy at March 31, 2005. Ahold USA and its subsidiary companies pays us rent in accordance with 3 written leases at our properties. None of the Ahold USA locations are in the Bradley OP portfolio.

131 Dartmouth Street Joint Venture and Lease

In November 1999, Heritage entered into a joint venture with NETT for the acquisition and development of a 365,000 square foot commercial office building at 131 Dartmouth Street, Boston, Massachusetts. This joint venture is owned 94% by NETT and 6% by Heritage. Heritage has issued this interest as part of a management arrangement with the joint venture pursuant to which Heritage manages the building. Heritage has no ongoing capital contribution requirements with respect to this office building, which was completed in 2003. Heritage accounts for its interest in this joint venture using the cost method and Heritage has not expended any amounts on the office building through March 31, 2005.

In February 2004, Heritage entered into an eleven-year lease with its joint venture with NETT for the lease of approximately 31,000 square feet of space at 131 Dartmouth Street and Heritage moved its corporate headquarters to this space during the first quarter of 2004. Under the terms of this lease, which were negotiated on an arms-length basis, Heritage began paying rent to the joint venture in February 2005. Heritage pays $1.1 million per year in minimum rent through 2009 and $1.2 million per year from 2010 through 2014.

Boston Office Lease

In 1974, NETT and Net Realty Holding Trust entered into an agreement providing for the lease of 14,400 square feet of space in an office building at 535 Boylston Street to NETT for its Boston offices. Net Realty Holding Trust assigned this lease to Heritage as part of its formation. The current term of this lease expired on March 31, 2005 and under this lease, NETT paid Heritage $648,000 per year in minimum rent. NETT did not renew this lease upon expiration. We anticipate NETT will continue to occupy its space on a month-to-month basis and pay us rent under its prior lease through May 2005.

Contingencies

Legal and Other Claims

We are subject to legal and other claims incurred in the normal course of business. Based on our review and consultation with counsel of those matters known to exist, we do not believe that the ultimate outcome of these claims would materially affect our financial position or results of operations.

Recourse Loan Guarantees

In addition to our unsecured line of credit and unsecured debt securities we and Bradley OP have issued, we and Bradley OP have fully guaranteed the repayment of a $22 million construction loan obtained by our Lakes Crossing joint venture from Key Bank, National Association. The Key Bank loan matures in November 2006 (subject to extension).

Non-Recourse Loan Guarantees

In connection with the Bradley acquisition, Heritage OP entered into a special securitized facility with Prudential Mortgage Capital Corporation (“PMCC”) pursuant to which $244 million of collateralized mortgage-backed securities were issued by a trust created by PMCC. The trust consists of a single mortgage loan due from a subsidiary we created, Heritage SPE LLC, to which Heritage OP contributed 29 of its properties. This loan is secured by all 29 properties contributed to the borrower.

In connection with the securities financing with PMCC, Heritage OP entered into several indemnification and guaranty agreements with PMCC under the terms of which Heritage OP agreed to indemnify PMCC for various bad acts of Heritage SPE LLC and with respect to specified environmental liabilities with respect to the properties contributed by Heritage OP to Heritage SPE LLC.

We also have agreed to indemnify other mortgage lenders for bad acts and environmental liabilities in connection with other mortgage loans that we have obtained.

Inflation

Inflation has had a minimal impact on the operating performance of our properties. However, many of our leases contain provisions designed to mitigate the adverse impact of inflation. These provisions include clauses enabling us to receive payment of additional rent calculated as a percentage of tenants’ gross sales above pre-determined thresholds, which generally increase as prices rise, and/or escalation clauses, which generally increase rental rates during the terms of the leases. These escalation clauses often are at fixed rent increases or indexed escalations (based on the consumer price index or other measures). Many of our leases are also for terms of less than ten years, which permits us to seek to increase rents to market rates upon renewal. In addition, most of our leases require the tenant to pay an allocable share of operating expenses, including common area maintenance costs, real estate taxes and insurance. This reduces our exposure to increases in costs and operating expenses resulting from inflation.

Net Operating Income

Net operating income, or “NOI,” is a non-GAAP financial measure equal to net income available to common shareholders (the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure), plus preferred stock distributions, general and administrative expense, depreciation and amortization, and interest expense, less income from discontinued operations, and interest and other income

We use NOI internally, and believe NOI provides useful information to investors, as a performance measure in evaluating the operating performance of our real estate assets. This is because NOI reflects only those income and expense items that are incurred at the property level and excludes certain components from net income in order to provide results that are more closely related to a property’s results of operations. Our presentation of NOI may not be comparable to NOI reported by other REITs that define NOI differently. We believe that in order to obtain a clear understanding of our operating results, NOI should be examined in conjunction with net income as presented in our consolidated financial statements. NOI should not be considered as an alternative to net income as an indication of our performance or to cash flows as a measure of liquidity or ability to make distributions.

The following sets forth a reconciliation of Bradley OP’s NOI (excluding NOI attributable to Heritage and its other subsidiaries) to net income available to common unit holders (in thousands):

ITEM 3: Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Market risk is the exposure to loss resulting from adverse changes in market prices, interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices and equity prices. The primary market risk to which we are exposed is interest rate risk, which is sensitive to many factors, including governmental monetary and tax policies, domestic and international economic and political considerations and other factors that are beyond our control. Our future income, cash flows and fair values relevant to financial instruments are dependent upon prevalent market interest rates.

The following table presents our (including Bradley OP) contractual fixed rate debt obligations as of March 31, 2005 sorted by maturity date and our contractual variable rate debt obligations sorted by maturity date (in thousands):

	2005 (1)		2006		2007		2008		2009		2010+		Total (2)		Weighted Average Interest Rate

(1) Represents the period from April 1, 2005 through December 31, 2005.

(2) The aggregate repayment amount of $1,295,037 does not reflect the unamortized mortgage loan premiums totaling $12,852 related to the assumption of fifteen mortgage loans with above-market contractual interest rates and the unamortized original issue discount of $1,677 on the 2004 bond issuances.

If market rates of interest on our variable rate debt outstanding at March 31, 2005 increase by 10%, or 36 basis points, we would expect the interest expense on our existing variable rate debt would decrease future earnings and cash flows by $0.8 million annually.

The following table separately presents the variable and fixed rate obligations, at their carrying values, of Bradley OP and its subsidiaries sorted by maturity date (in thousands):

	2005 (1)		2006		2007		2008		2009		2010+		Total (2)		Weighted Average Interest Rate

(1) Represents the period from April 1, 2005 through December 31, 2005.

(2) The aggregate repayment amount of $831,848 does not reflect the unamortized mortgage loan premiums totaling $7,216 related to the assumption of six mortgage loans with above-market contractual interest rates and the unamortized original issue discount of $1,677 on the 2004 bond issuances.

If market rates of interest on our variable rate debt outstanding at March 31, 2004 increase by 10%, or 36 basis points, we would expect the interest expense on our existing variable rate debt would decrease future earnings and cash flows by $0.8 million annually.

We were not a party to any hedging agreements with respect to our floating rate debt as of March 31, 2005. We have, in the past, used derivative financial instruments to manage, or hedge, interest rate risks related to our borrowings, from lines of credit to medium-and long-term financings. We require that hedging derivative instruments be effective in reducing the interest rate risk exposure that they are designed to hedge. We do not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes and only enter into contracts with major financial institutions based on their credit rating and other factors. We do not believe that the interest rate risk represented by our floating rate debt is material as of March 31, 2005 in relation to total assets and our total market capitalization.

ITEM 4: Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As required by Rule 13a-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company’s principal executive officer, principal financial officer, and other members of senior management have evaluated the design and operations of the disclosure controls and procedures of Heritage. Based on this evaluation, Heritage’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures effectively ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Heritage’s filings and submissions with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Exchange Act, is accumulated and communicated to our management (including the principal executive officer and principal financial officer) and is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There have not been any changes in Heritage’s internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the period covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect Heritage’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. Legal Proceedings

On October 31, 2001, a complaint was filed against Heritage in the Superior Court of Suffolk County of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts by Weston Associates and its president, Paul Donahue, alleging that Heritage owes Mr. Donahue and his firm a fee in connection with services he claims he performed on Heritage’s behalf in connection with Heritage’s acquisition of Bradley. On September 18, 2000, Heritage acquired Bradley, a publicly traded REIT based in Illinois with nearly 100 shopping center properties located primarily in the Midwest, at an aggregate cost of approximately $1.2 billion. Through his personal relationships with the parties involved, at Heritage’s request, Mr. Donahue introduced Heritage to Bradley and its senior management team. Mr. Donahue alleges, however, that he played an instrumental role in the negotiation and completion of Heritage’s acquisition of Bradley beyond merely introducing the parties. For these alleged efforts, Mr. Donahue demands that he receive a fee equal to 2% of the aggregate consideration Heritage paid to acquire Bradley, or a fee of approximately $24 million. In addition, Mr. Donahue also seeks treble damages based on alleged unfair or deceptive business practices under Massachusetts’s law.

On November 29, 2002, the court granted Heritage’s motion to dismiss Mr. Donahue’s claims. Mr. Donahue subsequently filed an appeal of the court’s decision and on March 4, 2004, an oral argument was heard with respect to Mr. Donahue’s appeal. On July 14, 2004, the Massachusetts Appellate Court reversed the lower court’s decision dismissing Mr. Donahue’s claims. The Appellate Court’s decision reverts the case back to the Superior Court for discovery and additional proceedings. It is not possible at this time to predict the outcome of this litigation and Heritage intends to vigorously defend against these claims.

Except as set forth above, we are not involved in any material litigation nor, to our knowledge, is any material litigation threatened against us, other than routine litigation arising in the ordinary course of business, which is generally expected to be covered by insurance. In the opinion of our management, based upon currently available information, this litigation is not expected to have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.
