ITEM 5. OTHER EVENTS AND REGULATION FD DISCLOSURE

As reported in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2002, in July 2002, the servicer of our 7.95% collateralized borrowings due 2010, which had a balance of $490 million at June 30, 2002 and are secured by five of our properties, asserted that an event of default exists under the loan agreement due to an exclusion for terrorist acts contained in our portfolio-wide property insurance coverage. This exclusion commenced in June 2002 when our policy was renewed. Although we believe this coverage is not required by our loan agreement, and accordingly we do not believe that an event of default occurred, we have cured this asserted default by negotiating a resolution with the servicer. Pursuant to this resolution, we have purchased insurance covering certain terrorist events in the aggregate amount of $250 million to be shared by these five properties and certain additional properties that we either own or manage.
