Saul Centers, Inc. Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited) 1. Organization, Formation and Structure Organization

Saul Centers, Inc. (“Saul Centers”) was incorporated under the Maryland General Corporation Law on June 10, 1993. Saul Centers operates as a real estate investment trust (a “REIT”) under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). Saul Centers generally will not be subject to federal income tax, provided it annually distributes at least 90% of its REIT taxable income to its stockholders and meets certain organizational and other requirements. Saul Centers has made and intends to continue to make regular quarterly distributions to its stockholders. Saul Centers, together with its wholly owned subsidiaries and the limited partnerships of which Saul Centers or one of its subsidiaries is the sole general partner, are referred to collectively as the “Company”. B. Francis Saul II serves as Chairman of the Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer of Saul Centers.

Saul Centers was formed to continue and expand the shopping center business previously owned and conducted by the B.F. Saul Real Estate Investment Trust, the B.F. Saul Company, Chevy Chase Bank, F.S.B. and certain other affiliated entities, each of which is controlled by B. Francis Saul II and his family members (collectively, “The Saul Organization”). On August 26, 1993, members of The Saul Organization transferred to Saul Holdings Limited Partnership, a newly formed Maryland limited partnership (the “Operating Partnership”), and two newly formed subsidiary limited partnerships (the “Subsidiary Partnerships”, and collectively with the Operating Partnership, the “Partnerships”), shopping center and office properties, and the management functions related to the transferred properties. Since its formation, the Company has purchased and developed additional properties. The Company is currently developing Broadlands Village, a grocery anchored shopping center in Loudoun County. The Company recently completed development of Ashburn Village IV, an in-line retail and retail pad expansion to the Ashburn Village shopping center. In July 2003 the Company purchased Old Forte Village, a grocery anchored neighborhood shopping center located in Fort Washington, Maryland. In June 2002 the Company purchased Clarendon Center for future redevelopment. In September 2002, the Company purchased 109,642 square feet of retail space known as Kentlands Square. In November 2002 the Company purchased a 19 acre parcel of land in the Lansdowne community in Loudoun County, Virginia. The Company plans to develop the Lansdowne parcel into a grocery anchored neighborhood and community shopping center. As of September 30, 2003, the Company’s properties (the “Current Portfolio Properties”) consisted of 29 operating shopping center properties (the “Shopping Centers”), five predominantly office operating properties (the “Office Properties”) and three development and/or redevelopment properties. The Company established Saul QRS, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Saul Centers, to facilitate the placement of collateralized mortgage debt. Saul QRS, Inc. was created to succeed to the interest of Saul Centers as the sole general partner of Saul Subsidiary I Limited Partnership. The remaining limited partnership interests in Saul Subsidiary I Limited Partnership and Saul Subsidiary II Limited Partnership are held by the Operating Partnership as the sole limited partner. Through this structure, the Company owns 100% of the Current Portfolio Properties.

(Unaudited) 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Nature of Operations

The Company, which conducts all of its activities through its subsidiaries, the Operating Partnership and Subsidiary Partnerships, engages in the ownership, operation, management, leasing, acquisition, renovation, expansion, development and financing of community and neighborhood shopping centers and office properties, primarily in the Washington DC/Baltimore metropolitan area. The Company’s long-term objectives are to increase cash flow from operations and to maximize capital appreciation of its real estate.

Because the properties are located primarily in the Washington, DC/Baltimore metropolitan area, the Company is subject to a concentration of credit risk related to these properties. A majority of the Shopping Centers are anchored by several major tenants. Seventeen of the Shopping Centers are anchored by a grocery store and offer primarily day-to-day necessities and services. As of September 30, 2003, no single property accounted for more than 8.7% of the total gross leasable area. Only one retail tenant, Giant Food, at 6.0%, accounted for more than 2.6% of the Company’s total revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2003. No office tenant other than the United States Government, at 4.1%, accounted for more than 1.5% of the Company’s total revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2003.

(Unaudited) Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company include the accounts of Saul Centers, its subsidiaries, and the Operating Partnership and Subsidiary Partnerships which are majority owned by Saul Centers. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Real Estate Investment Properties

These financial statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, and accordingly, do not report the current value of the Company’s real estate assets. Real estate investment properties are stated at the lower of depreciated cost or fair value less cost to sell. Management believes that these assets have generally appreciated in value and, accordingly, the aggregate current value exceeds their aggregate net book value and also exceeds the value of the Company’s liabilities as reported in these financial statements.

The Company purchases real estate investment properties from time to time and allocates the purchase price to various components, such as land, buildings, and intangibles related to in-place leases and customer relationships in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) 141, “Business Combinations.” The purchase price is allocated based on the relative fair value of each component. The fair value of buildings is determined as if the buildings were vacant upon acquisition and subsequently leased at market rental rates. As such, the determination of fair value considers the present value of all cash flows expected to be generated from the property including an initial lease up period. The Company determines the fair value of above and below market intangibles associated with in-place leases by assessing the net effective rent and remaining term of the lease relative to market terms for similar leases at acquisition. In the case of below market leases, the Company considers the remaining contractual lease period and renewal periods, taking into consideration the likelihood of the tenant exercising its renewal options. The fair value of a below market lease component is recorded as deferred income and amortized as additional lease revenue over the remaining contractual lease period and any renewal option periods included in the valuation analysis. The fair value of above market lease intangibles is recorded as a deferred asset and is amortized as a reduction of lease revenue over the remaining contractual lease term. The Company determines the fair value of at-market in-place leases considering the cost of acquiring similar leases, the foregone rents associated with the lease-up period and carrying costs associated with the lease-up period. Intangible assets associated with at-market in-place leases are amortized as additional lease expense over the remaining contractual lease term. To the extent customer relationship intangibles are present in an acquisition, the fair value of the intangibles are amortized over the life of the customer

(Unaudited) relationship. The Company applied SFAS 141 when it recorded the July 28, 2003 acquisition of Old Forte Village. Approximately $760,000 of the $16,670,000 total cost of the acquisition was allocated as lease intangible assets and included in prepaid expenses at September 30, 2003. The lease intangible assets are being amortized over the remaining periods of the leases acquired.

Real estate investment properties are reviewed for potential impairment losses whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. If there is an event or change in circumstance that indicates an impairment in the value of a real estate investment property, the Company’s policy is to assess any impairment in value by making a comparison of the current and projected operating cash flows of the property over its remaining useful life, on an undiscounted basis, to the carrying amount of that property. If such carrying amount is in excess of the estimated projected operating cash flows of the property, the Company would recognize an impairment loss equivalent to an amount required to adjust the carrying amount to its estimated fair market value. Saul Centers adopted SFAS 144, “Accounting for Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets,” effective January 1, 2002. This Statement addresses financial accounting and reporting for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets. The Company has not recognized an impairment loss in on any of its real estate.

Interest, real estate taxes and other carrying costs are capitalized on projects under development and construction. Interest expense capitalized during the nine month periods ended September 30, 2003 and 2002, was $860,000 and $386,000, respectively. Once construction is substantially completed and the assets are placed in service, their rental income, direct operating expenses and depreciation are included in current operations. Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are charged to operations as incurred.

A project is considered substantially complete and available for occupancy upon completion of tenant improvements, but no later than one year from the cessation of major construction activity. Substantially completed portions of a project are accounted for as separate projects. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method and estimated useful lives of 33 to 50 years for buildings and up to 20 years for certain other improvements. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the lives of the related leases using the straight-line method. Accounts Receivable and Accrued Income

Accounts receivable primarily represent amounts currently due from tenants in accordance with the terms of the respective leases. Receivables are reviewed monthly and reserves are established when, in the opinion of management, collection of the receivable is doubtful. Accounts receivable in the accompanying financial statements are shown net of an allowance for doubtful accounts of $593,000 and $681,000, at September 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002, respectively.

In addition to rents due currently, accounts receivable include $8,168,000 and $6,262,000, at September 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002, respectively, representing minimum rental income accrued on a straight-line basis to be paid by tenants over the remaining term of

(Unaudited) their respective leases. These amounts are presented after netting allowances of $562,000 and $693,000, respectively, for tenants whose rent payment history or financial condition cast doubt upon the tenant’s ability to perform under its lease obligations. Lease Acquisition Costs

Certain initial direct costs incurred by the Company in negotiating and consummating a successful lease are capitalized and amortized over the initial base term of the lease. These costs are included in prepaid expenses and total $15,389,000 and $12,140,000, net of accumulated amortization of $6,347,000 and $5,259,000, as of September 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002, respectively. Capitalized leasing costs consist of commissions paid to third party leasing agents as well as internal direct costs such as employee compensation and payroll related fringe benefits directly related to time spent performing leasing related activities. Such activities include evaluating the prospective tenant’s financial condition, evaluating and recording guarantees, collateral and other security arrangements, negotiating lease terms, preparing lease documents and closing the transaction. Lease acquisition costs also include a portion of an acquired property’s purchase price as discussed previously in “Real Estate Investment Properties.” Deferred Debt Costs

Deferred debt costs consist of financing fees and costs incurred to obtain long-term financing. These fees and costs are being amortized over the terms of the respective loans or agreements. Deferred debt costs totaled $4,255,000 and $4,125,000, and are presented net of accumulated amortization of $3,219,000 and $2,693,000, at September 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002, respectively. Revenue Recognition

Rental and interest income is accrued as earned except when doubt exists as to collectibility, in which case the accrual is discontinued. When rental payments due under leases vary from a straight-line basis because of free rent periods or stepped increases, income is recognized on a straight-line basis in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Expense recoveries represent a portion of property operating expenses billed to the tenants, including common area maintenance, real estate taxes and other recoverable costs. Expense recoveries are recognized in the period when the expenses are incurred. Rental income based on a tenant’s revenues (“percentage rent”) is accrued when a tenant reports sales that exceed a specified breakpoint.

(Unaudited) Income Taxes

The Company made an election to be treated, and intends to continue operating so as to qualify as a REIT under the Code, commencing with its taxable year ended December 31, 1993. A REIT generally will not be subject to federal income taxation on that portion of its income that qualifies as REIT taxable income to the extent that it distributes at least 90% of its REIT taxable income to stockholders and complies with certain other requirements. Therefore, no provision has been made for federal income taxes in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Employee Stock Option Plan

The Company established a stock option plan for the purpose of attracting and retaining executive officers and other key personnel. The plan provides for grants of options to purchase a specified number of shares of common stock. A total of 400,000 shares were made available under the plan. The plan authorizes the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors to grant options at an exercise price which may not be less than the market value of the common stock on the date the option is granted.

During 1993 and 1994, the Compensation Committee granted options to purchase a total of 180,000 shares (90,000 shares from incentive stock options and 90,000 shares from nonqualified stock options) to five Company officers. The options vested 25% per year over four years, had an exercise price of $20 per share and a term of ten years, subject to earlier expiration upon termination of employment. No compensation expense was recognized as a result of these grants. During the nine months ended September 30, 2003, 93,210 option shares were exercised. As of September 23, 2003, no 1993 and 1994 options remained unexercised .

On May 23, 2003, the Compensation Committee granted options to purchase a total of 220,000 shares (80,000 shares from incentive stock options and 140,000 shares from nonqualified stock options) to six Company officers (the “2003 Options”). The 2003 Options vest 25% per year over four years and have a term of ten years, subject to earlier expiration upon termination of employment. The exercise price of $24.91 was the market trading price of the Company’s common stock at the time of the award.

Effective January 2003, the Company adopted the fair value method to value employee stock options using the prospective transition method specified under SFAS No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation-Transition and Disclosure.” The Company had no options eligible for valuation prior to the grant of the 2003 Options. The fair value of the 2003 Options was determined at the time of the award using the Black-Scholes model, a widely used method for valuing stock based employee compensation, and the following assumptions: expected volatility was determined using the ten year trading history of the Company’s common stock (month-end closing prices), an average expected term outstanding of seven years, expected dividend yield throughout the option term of 7% and risk-free interest rate of 4% based upon an assumed 10-year US Treasury rate. Using the Black-Scholes model, the Company determined the total fair value of the 2003 Options to be $332,000 and recognizes compensation expense monthly during the

(Unaudited) four years the options vest. Compensation expense attributed to the 2003 Options during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2003 was $20,000 and $29,000, respectively. The 2003 Options are due to expire May 22, 2013 and as of September 30, 2003, none of the 2003 Options are vested. Deferred Compensation and Stock Plan for Directors

Saul Centers has established a Deferred Compensation and Stock Plan for Directors (the “Plan”) for the benefit of its directors and their beneficiaries. A director may elect to defer all or part of his or her director’s fees and has the option to have the fees paid in cash, in shares of common stock or in a combination of cash and shares of common stock upon termination from the Board. If the director elects to have fees paid in stock, the number of shares allocated to the director is determined by the market price of the common stock on the day the fee is earned. As of September 30, 2003, 170,000 shares were authorized and registered for use under the Plan, and 145,000 shares had been credited to the directors’ deferred fee accounts.

Beginning in 1999, pursuant to the Plan, 100 shares of the Company’s common stock are awarded annually as additional compensation to each director serving on the Board of Directors as of the record date for the Annual Meeting of Stockholders. The shares are issued on the date of the Annual Meeting, their issuance may not be deferred and transfer of the shares is restricted for a period of twelve months following the date of issue. Per Share Data

Per share data is calculated in accordance with SFAS No. 128, “Earnings Per Share.” Per share data for net income (basic and diluted) is computed using weighted average shares of common stock. Convertible limited partnership units and employee stock options are the Company’s potentially dilutive securities. For all periods presented, the convertible limited partnership units are anti-dilutive. The options are currently dilutive because the average share price of the Company’s common stock exceeds the exercise prices. The Company granted 180,000 stock options to five executive officers in 1993 and 1994, of which no shares and 93,210 shares remained unexercised as of September 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002, respectively. The Company granted 220,000 stock options to six executive officers in May 2003, of which all 220,000 shares remained unexercised as of September 30, 2003. The treasury share method was used to measure the effect of the dilution.

The Saul Organization has a 24.8% limited partnership interest, represented by 5,185,000 convertible limited partnership units in the Operating Partnership, as of September 30, 2003. These convertible limited partnership units are convertible into shares of Saul Centers’ common stock on a one-for-one basis, provided the rights may not be exercised at any time that The Saul Organization beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, in the aggregate more than 24.9% of the outstanding equity securities of Saul Centers. The limited partnership units were not convertible as of September 30, 2003 because the Saul Organization owned in excess of 24.9% of the Company’s equity securities. The impact of The Saul Organization’s 24.8% limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership is reflected as minority interests in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Fully converted partnership units and diluted weighted average shares outstanding for the quarters ended September 30, 2003 and 2002, were 20,883,000 and 20,122,000, respectively. Fully converted partnership units and diluted weighted average shares outstanding for the nine month periods ended September 30, 2003 and 2002, were 20,711,000 and 19,979,000, respectively. Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior year financial statements to conform to the current year presentation. The reclassifications have no impact on operating results previously reported.

(Unaudited) Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In November 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Interpretation No. (“FIN”) 45, “Guarantor’s Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Direct Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others.” FIN 45 outlines the disclosures to be made by a guarantor in its financial statements about its obligations under certain guarantees. It states that a guarantor is required to recognize, at the inception of a guarantee, a liability for the fair value of its obligation. Saul Centers has guaranteed portions of its Partnership debt obligations, all of which are presented on the consolidated financial statements as mortgage notes payable. Saul Centers has guaranteed $71,131,000 of the notes payable which are recourse loans made by the Operating Partnership as of September 30, 2003. The balance of the mortgage notes payable totaling $329,537,000 are non-recourse, however, as is customary when obtaining long term non-recourse financing, borrowers such as Saul Centers make certain representations to lenders, for example, that no fraud exists and the officers are authorized to execute loan documents. Borrowers, including Saul Centers, typically agree to assume obligations arising from reliance upon these representations should a third party suffer damages related to individual mortgages. No additional liabilities were recognized as a result of the adoption of FIN 45, and the Company does not expect the adoption of FIN 45 to have a material impact on its financial condition or results of operations.

In January 2003, the FASB issued FIN 46, “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities,” which changes the guidelines for consolidation of and disclosure related to unconsolidated entities, if those unconsolidated entities qualify as variable interest entities, as defined in FIN 46. The Company does not have any unconsolidated entities or variable interest entities and therefore the adoption of FIN 46 will not have an impact upon the consolidated financial statements. 3. Construction In Progress

Construction in progress includes the land acquisition costs, predevelopment costs, and development costs of active projects. Predevelopment costs associated with these active projects include closing costs, legal, zoning and permitting costs and other project carrying costs incurred prior to the commencement of construction. Development costs include direct construction costs and indirect costs incurred subsequent to the start of construction such as architectural, engineering, construction management and carrying costs consisting of interest, real estate taxes and insurance. Construction in progress balances as of September 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002 are as follows: Construction in Progress

(Unaudited) 4. Notes Payable

Notes payable totaled $400,668,000 at September 30, 2003, of which $339,150,000 (84.6%) was fixed rate debt and $61,518,000 (15.4%) was floating rate debt. At September 30, 2003, the Company had a $125,000,000 unsecured revolving credit facility with outstanding borrowings of $49,500,000. The facility matures in August 2005 and requires monthly interest payments at a rate of LIBOR plus a spread of 1.625% to 1.875% (determined by certain debt service coverage and leverage tests) or upon the bank’s reference rate at the Company’s option. As of September 30, 2003, borrowings under the facility accrued interest at LIBOR plus 1.75%. Loan availability is determined by operating income from the Company’s unencumbered properties, which, as of September 30, 2003 would have allowed the Company to borrow an additional $33,000,000 for general corporate use. An additional $42,500,000 is available for funding working capital and operating property acquisitions supported by the unencumbered properties’ internal cash flow growth and operating income of future acquisitions.

In January 2003 the Company replaced its $42,000,000 construction loan used to finance the building of Washington Square at Old Town with a $42,500,000 permanent mortgage. The new permanent financing matures in 15 years and requires equal monthly principal and interest payments of $264,000 based upon a 27.5 year amortization period and a 6.01% fixed interest rate. A balloon payment of $27,872,000 will be due at maturity February 2018. In March 2003, the Company executed a $15,000,000 loan to finance the construction of Broadlands Village shopping center. The loan matures in March 2005 and requires monthly interest payments at a rate of LIBOR plus 1.7%. At September 30, 2003, a balance of $12,018,000 was outstanding on the loan. In August 2003, the Company executed a $8,000,000 fixed-rate mortgage loan. The loan accrues interest at an annual rate of 5.51% and matures in December 2011. The loan is collateralized by Ashburn Village shopping center and requires equal monthly principal and interest payments of $49,175 based upon a 25-year amortization schedule and a balloon payment of $6,465,000 at loan maturity.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles and, accordingly, do not report the current value of the Company’s real estate assets. The Stockholders’ Equity (Deficit) reported on the Consolidated Balance Sheets does not reflect any increase in the value resulting from the difference between the current value and the net book value of the Company’s assets. Therefore, Stockholders’ Equity (Deficit) reported on the Consolidated Balance Sheets does not reflect the market value of stockholders’ investment in the Company.

The Consolidated Statement of Operations for the three months ended September 30, 2003 includes a charge for minority interests of $2,023,000, consisting of $1,747,000 related to The Saul Organization’s share of net income for the quarter, and $276,000 related to distributions to minority interests in excess of allocated net income for the quarter. The minority interests charge for the three months ended September 30, 2002 of $2,017,000 consists of $1,411,000 related to The Saul Organization’s share of net income for the quarter, and $606,000 related to distributions to minority interests in excess of allocated net income for the quarter. The Consolidated Statement of Operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 includes a charge for minority interests of $6,063,000, consisting of $4,898,000 related to The Saul Organization’s share of net income for the period, and $1,165,000 related to distributions to minority interests in excess of allocated net income for the period. The minority interests charge for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 of $6,051,000 consists of $5,272,000 related to The Saul Organization’s share of net income for the period, and $779,000 related to distributions to minority interests in excess of allocated net income for the period.

(Unaudited) 6. Related Party Transactions

Chevy Chase Bank, an affiliate of The Saul Organization, leases space in 14 of the Company’s properties. Total rental income from Chevy Chase Bank amounted to $1,085,000 and $1,014,000, for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively.

The Company utilizes Chevy Chase Bank for its various checking accounts and as of September 30, 2003 had $2,428,000 deposited in short-term interest bearing money market accounts.

The Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, the President and the Chief Accounting Officer of the Company are also officers of various members of The Saul Organization and their management time is shared with The Saul Organization. Their annual compensation is fixed by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors.

The Company shares with The Saul Organization on a pro-rata basis certain ancillary functions such as computer hardware, software and support services and certain direct and indirect administrative payroll based on management’s estimate of usage or time incurred, as applicable. Also, The Saul Organization subleases office space to the Company for its corporate headquarters. The terms of all such arrangements with The Saul Organization, including payments related thereto, are reviewed by the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors. 7. Subsequent Events

On July 16, 2003, the Company filed a shelf registration statement (the “Shelf Registration Statement”), with the SEC relating to the future offering of up to an aggregate of $100 million of preferred stock and depositary shares. On November 5, 2003 the Company sold 3,500,000 depositary shares, each representing 1/100th of a share of 8% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock. The depositary shares may be redeemed, in whole or in part, at the $25.00 liquidation preference at the Company’s option on or after November 5, 2008. The depositary shares will pay an annual dividend of $2.00 per share, equivalent to 8% of the $25.00 liquidation preference. The first dividend to be paid on January 15, 2004 will be for less than a full quarter and will cover the period from the first date the Company issues and sells the depositary shares through December 31, 2003. The Series A preferred stock has no stated maturity, is not subject to any sinking fund or mandatory redemption and is not convertible into any other securities of the Company.

Net proceeds from the issuance, were approximately $84,300,000 million and initially were used to fully repay $52,500,000 outstanding under the Company’s revolving credit facility and the remaining balance was invested in short-term certificates of deposit.

In November 2003, the Company entered into a commitment to borrow $40,000,000 under three new fifteen year, fixed-rate cross-collateralized loans, with an annual interest rate of 5.94% and monthly principal and interest payments calculated using a 25 year amortization period. A balloon payment of $23,579,000 will be due at maturity. The loans will be secured by the Company’s Broadlands Village, The Glen and Kentlands Square shopping centers. Net proceeds after repayment of debt are expected to total approximately $8,000,000 and will be used to fund future developments, expansions or acquisitions, and general corporate uses.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

This section should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements of the Company and the accompanying notes in “Item 1. Financial Statements” of this report. Historical results and percentage relationships set forth in Item 1 and this section should not be taken as indicative of future operations of the Company. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined in this section, have the meanings given to them in Item 1 of this Form 10-Q. This Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These statements are generally characterized by terms such as “believe”, “expect” and “may”.

Although the Company believes that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are based upon reasonable assumptions, the Company’s actual results could differ materially from those given in the forward-looking statements as a result of changes in factors which include among others, the following: general economic and business conditions, which will, among other things, affect demand for retail and office space; demand for retail goods; availability and credit worthiness of the prospective tenants; lease rents and the terms and availability of financing; adverse changes in the real estate markets including, among other things, competition with other companies and technology, risks of real estate development and acquisition, governmental actions and initiatives, debt refinancing risk, conflicts of interests, maintenance of REIT status and environmental/safety requirements. General

The following discussion is based primarily on the consolidated financial statements of the Company, as of September 30, 2003 and for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2003. Critical Accounting Policies

The Company’s accounting policies are in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”). The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to use judgment in the application of accounting policies, including making estimates and assumptions. These judgments affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the Company’s financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. If judgment or interpretation of the facts and circumstances relating to various transactions had been different, it is possible that different accounting policies would have been applied resulting in a different presentation of the financial statements. Below is a discussion of accounting policies which the Company considers critical in that they may require judgment in their application or require estimates about matters which are inherently uncertain. Additional discussion of accounting policies which the Company considers significant, including further discussion of the critical accounting policies described below, can be found in the accompanying notes in “Item 1. Financial Statements” of this report.

Valuation of Real Estate Investments

Real estate investment properties are stated at historic cost basis less depreciation. Management believes that these assets have generally appreciated in value and, accordingly, the aggregate current value exceeds their aggregate net book value and also exceeds the value of the Company’s liabilities as reported in these financial statements. Because these financial statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, they do not report the current value of the Company’s real estate assets.

If there is an event or change in circumstance that indicates an impairment in the value of a real estate investment property, the Company assesses an impairment in value by making a comparison of the current and projected operating cash flows of the property over its remaining useful life, on an undiscounted basis, to the carrying amount of that property. If such carrying amount is greater than the estimated projected cash flows, the Company would recognize an impairment loss equivalent to an amount required to adjust the carrying amount to its estimated fair market value. Real Estate Development

Interest, real estate taxes and other carrying costs are capitalized on projects under construction. Once construction is substantially complete and the assets are placed in service, rental income, direct operating expenses, and depreciation associated with such properties are included in current operations.

In the initial rental operations of development projects, a project is considered substantially complete and available for occupancy upon completion of tenant improvements, but no later than one year from the cessation of major construction activity. Substantially completed portions of a project are accounted for as separate projects. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method and estimated useful lives of 33 to 50 years for buildings and up to 20 years for certain other improvements. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the lives of the related leases using the straight-line method. Lease Acquisition Costs

Certain initial direct costs incurred by the Company in negotiating and consummating a successful lease are capitalized and amortized over the initial base term of the lease. Capitalized leasing costs consists of commissions paid to third party leasing agents as well as internal direct costs such as employee compensation and payroll related fringe benefits directly related to time spent performing leasing related activities. Such activities include evaluating the prospective tenant’s financial condition, evaluating and recording guarantees, collateral and other security arrangements, negotiating lease terms, preparing lease documents and closing the transaction. Lease acquisition costs also include an allocated portion of an acquired property’s purchase price attributable to an estimation of the value of in place leases at the time of acquisition. Revenue Recognition

Rental and interest income is accrued as earned except when doubt exists as to collectibility, in which case the accrual is discontinued. When rental payments due under leases

vary from a straight-line basis because of free rent periods or scheduled rent increases, income is recognized on a straight-line basis throughout the initial term of the lease. Expense recoveries represent a portion of property operating expenses billed to the tenants, including common area maintenance, real estate taxes and other recoverable costs. Expense recoveries are recognized in the period when the expenses are incurred. Rental income based on a tenant’s revenues, known as percentage rent, is accrued when a tenant reports sales that exceed a specified breakpoint. Legal Contingencies

The Company is subject to various legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of business. These matters are generally covered by insurance. While the resolution of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty, the Company believes the final outcome of such matters will not have a material adverse effect on the financial position or the results of operations. Once it has been determined that a loss is probable to occur, the estimated amount of the loss is recorded in the financial statements. Both the amount of the loss and the point at which its occurrence is considered probable can be difficult to determine. Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash and cash equivalents were $2.2 million and $0.7 million at September 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively. The Company’s cash flow is affected by its operating, investing and financing activities, as described below. Operating Activities

Cash provided by operating activities for the nine month periods ended September 30, 2003 and 2002 was $26.6 million and $27.7 million, respectively, and represents, in each year, cash received primarily from rental income, plus other income, less normal recurring property operating expenses, general and administrative expenses and interest payments on debt outstanding. Investing Activities

Cash used in investing activities for the nine month periods ended September 30, 2003 and 2002 was $33.3 million and $39.1 million, respectively, and primarily reflects acquisitions of real estate investments, improvements to existing real estate investments, construction in progress and proceeds from sales of properties, if any, during those periods. Financing Activities

Cash provided by financing activities for the nine month period ended September 30, 2003 and 2002, was $7.5 million and $10.4 million, respectively. Cash provided by financing activities for the nine month period ended September 30, 2003 primarily reflects:

which was partially offset by:

• $12.4 million of proceeds received from the issuance of common stock and convertible limited partnership units in the Operating Partnership by dividend reinvestment programs ($10.5 million) and the exercise of employee stock options ($1.9 million);

• the repayment of borrowings on our notes payable totaling $73.6 million; and

Cash provided by financing activities for the nine month period ended September 30, 2002 primarily reflects:

• distributions made to common stockholders and holders of convertible limited partnership units in the Operating Partnership during the nine month period totaling $24.1 million.

• $42.3 million of proceeds received from notes payable; and

which was partially offset by:

• $9.5 million of proceeds received from the issuance of common stock and convertible limited partnership units in the Operating Partnership by dividend reinvestment programs.

• the repayment of borrowings on our notes payable totaling $16.8 million; and

The Company’s principal demands for liquidity are expected to be distributions to its stockholders, debt service and loan

repayments, expansion and renovation of the Current Portfolio Properties and selective acquisition and development of additional properties. In order to qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, the Company must distribute to its stockholders at least 90% of its “real estate investment trust taxable income,” as defined in the Code. The Company anticipates that operating revenues will provide the funds necessary for operations, debt service, distributions, and required recurring capital expenditures. Balloon principal repayments are expected to be funded by refinancings.

Management anticipates that during the coming year the Company may: i) redevelop certain of the Shopping Centers, ii) develop additional freestanding outparcels or expansions within certain of the Shopping Centers, iii) acquire existing neighborhood and community shopping centers and/or office properties, and iv) develop new shopping center or office sites. Acquisition and development of properties are undertaken only after careful analysis and review, and management’s determination that such properties are expected to provide long-term earnings and cash flow growth. During the coming year, any developments, expansions or acquisitions are expected to be funded with proceeds from the Company’s preferred stock issue described below, bank borrowings from the Company’s credit facility, construction financing, proceeds from the operation of the Company’s dividend reinvestment plan, private offering of additional limited partnership interests in the Operating Partnership, private or public offerings of preferred equity securities or debt securities, or other external capital resources available to the Company.

The Company expects to fulfill its long range requirements for capital resources in a variety of ways, including undistributed cash flow from operations, secured or unsecured bank and institutional borrowings, private or public offerings of debt or equity securities and proceeds from the sales of properties. Borrowings may be at the Saul Centers, Operating Partnership or Subsidiary Partnership level, and securities offerings may include (subject to certain limitations) the issuance of additional limited partnership interests in the Operating Partnership which can be converted into shares of Saul Centers common stock.

As of September 30, 2003, the scheduled maturities of all debt, including scheduled principal amortization, for years ended December 31, are as follows: Debt Maturity Schedule

Management believes that the Company’s capital resources, including approximately $33,000,000 for general corporate use and

$42,500,000 for qualified future acquisitions provided by the Company’s revolving line of credit, which was available for borrowing as of September 30, 2003, will be sufficient to meet its liquidity needs for the foreseeable future. Preferred Stock Issue

On July 16, 2003, the Company filed a shelf registration statement (the “Shelf Registration Statement”), with the SEC relating to the future offering of up to an aggregate of $100 million of preferred stock and depositary shares. On November 5, 2003 the Company sold 3,500,000 depositary shares, each representing 1/100th of a share of 8% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock.

The depositary shares may be redeemed, in whole or in part, at the $25.00 liquidation preference at the Company’s option on or after November 5, 2008. The depositary shares will pay an annual dividend of $2.00 per share, equivalent to 8% of the $25.00 liquidation preference. The first dividend to be paid on January 15, 2004 will be for less than a full quarter and will cover the period from the first date the Company issues and sells the depositary shares through December 31, 2003. The Series A preferred stock has no stated maturity, is not subject to any sinking fund or mandatory redemption and is not convertible into any other securities of the Company. Investors in the depositary shares will generally have no voting rights, but will have limited voting rights if the Company fails to pay dividends for six or more quarters (whether or not declared or consecutive) and in certain other events.

The Company has granted the underwriters an over-allotment option to purchase up to an additional 500,000 depositary shares, which is exercisable within 30 days after closing. Net proceeds from the issuance, were approximately $84.3 million and initially were used to fully repay $52.5 million outstanding under the Company’s revolving credit facility and the remaining balance was invested in short-term certificates of deposit. The Company intends to use amounts deposited in short term investments and its $125 million credit facility to fund future developments, expansions and acquisitions. Dividend Reinvestment and Stock Purchase Plan

In December 1995, the Company established a Dividend Reinvestment and Stock Purchase Plan (the “Plan”), to allow its stockholders and holders of limited partnership interests an opportunity to buy additional shares of common stock by reinvesting all or a portion of their dividends or distributions. The Plan provides for investing in newly issued shares of common stock at a 3% discount from market price without payment of any brokerage commissions, service charges or other expenses. All expenses of the Plan are paid by the Company. The Company issued 422,851 and 420,765 shares under the Plan at weighted average discounted prices of $24.03 per share and $21.94 per share, during the nine month periods ended September 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively.

Additionally, the Operating Partnership issued 9,521 limited partnership units under a dividend reinvestment plan mirroring the Plan at a weighted average discounted price of $24.03 per unit during the nine month period ended September 30, 2003. Capital Strategy and Financing Activity

The Company’s capital strategy is to maintain a ratio of total debt to total asset value of 50% or less, and to actively manage the Company’s leverage and debt expense on an ongoing basis in order to maintain prudent coverage of fixed charges. Management believes that current total debt remains less than 50% of total asset value.

Management believes that the Company’s current capital resources, which include the Company’s credit line of which $33,000,000 was available for general corporate use and $42,500,000 for qualified future acquisitions as of September 30, 2003, will be sufficient to meet its liquidity needs for the foreseeable future. At September 30, 2003, the Company had fixed interest rates on approximately 84.6% of its total debt outstanding. The fixed rate debt had a weighted average remaining term of approximately 9.2 years.

In August 2003, the Company executed a $8,000,000 fixed-rate mortgage loan. The loan accrues interest at an annual rate of 5.51% and matures in December 2011. The loan is collateralized by Ashburn Village shopping center and requires equal monthly principal and interest payments of $49,175 based upon a 25-year amortization schedule and a balloon payment of $6,465,000 at loan maturity.

Funds From Operations

For the third quarter of 2003, the Company reported Funds From Operations (“FFO”) of $11,584,000. This represents a 4.5% increase over the comparable 2002 period’s FFO of $11,081,000. For the nine months ended September 30, 2003, the Company reported FFO of $32,466,000. This represents a 1.1% decrease over the comparable 2002 period’s FFO of $32,810,000. FFO is a widely accepted non-GAAP financial measure of operating performance for REITs. FFO is presented by the Company on a fully converted basis, and is defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) as net income, computed in accordance with GAAP, plus minority interests, extraordinary items, real estate depreciation and amortization, excluding gains or losses from property sales. FFO does not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with GAAP and is not necessarily indicative of cash available to fund cash needs, which is disclosed in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the applicable periods. FFO should not be considered as an alternative to net income, as an indicator of the Company’s operating performance, or as an alternative to cash flows as a measure of liquidity. Management considers FFO a meaningful supplemental measure of operating performance because it primarily excludes the assumption that the value of real estate diminishes predictably over time and because industry analysts have accepted it as a performance measure. The Company’s presentation of FFO using the NAREIT definition, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures employed by other REITs. The following table represents a reconciliation from net income to FFO: Funds From Operations Schedule

The Company has been selectively involved in acquisition, redevelopment and renovation activities. It continues to evaluate the acquisition of land parcels for retail and office development and acquisitions of operating properties for opportunities to enhance operating income and cash flow growth. The Company acquired Kentlands Square in September 2002 and three land parcels (described below) during 2002. The Company also continues to take advantage of redevelopment, renovation and expansion opportunities within the portfolio, as demonstrated by its recent activities at Washington Square and Ashburn Village. Broadlands Village

In March 2002, the Company purchased 24 acres of undeveloped land in the Broadlands section of the Dulles Technology Corridor. The site is located adjacent to the Claiborne Parkway exit (Exit 5) of the Dulles Greenway, in Loudoun County, Virginia. The Dulles Greenway is the “gateway to Loudoun County,” a 14-mile extension of the Dulles Toll Road, connecting Washington Dulles International Airport with historic Leesburg, Virginia. Broadlands is a 1,500 acre planned community consisting of 3,500 residences, approximately half of which are constructed and currently occupied. The land is zoned to accommodate approximately 225,000 square feet of neighborhood and community retail development. The Company has substantially completed the initial phase of construction totaling 105,000 square feet of retail space. A 58,000 square foot Safeway supermarket opened October 29, 2003 and anchors the shopping center. The 105,000 square foot first phase is 93% leased. Clarendon Center

In June 2002, the Company purchased Clarendon Center, located in Arlington, Virginia. Clarendon Center is a 1.25 acre site with an existing and primarily vacant 70,000 square foot office building with surface parking for 104 cars. It is located directly across the street from the

Company’s Clarendon and Clarendon Station properties. The Company has contracted architects and land use professionals and has submitted plans for Arlington County site plan review and zoning approval. Lansdowne

In November 2002, the Company purchased approximately 19 acres of undeveloped land located within the Lansdowne community in Loudoun County, Virginia. The land is zoned to accommodate approximately 150,000 square feet of neighborhood and community retail development. The Company has submitted plans for zoning review and approval by Loudoun County. Old Forte Village

On July 28, 2003, the Company acquired Old Forte Village, a 161,000 square foot neighborhood retail center located near the entrance to the Tantallon community at the intersection of Indian Head Highway and East Swan Creed Road in Fort Washington, Maryland. The property is approximately 5 miles south of the Washington Beltway, I-495. The purchase price was $16.5 million. The center is anchored by a newly constructed 58,000 square foot Safeway which opened in March 2003. The balance of the center consists of approximately 50,000 square feet of in-line shop space, constructed primarily in the early 1980’s, 16,000 square feet of pad site buildings and the currently vacant 39,000 square foot former Safeway store. The Company plans to redevelop a portion of the property where the former 39,000 square foot Safeway had been previously operating. Frederick Land Acquisition

On August 1, 2003, the Company entered into an agreement with an unaffiliated third party to purchase approximately 13 acres of undeveloped land in Frederick, Maryland, which the Company expects to develop into an approximately 100,000 square foot shopping center property. Pursuant to an executed lease, the property will be anchored by an approximately 57,000 square foot Giant Food supermarket. The purchase price for the land is $9,300,000, and we anticipate construction and development costs to be approximately $12,000,000. The purchase of the land and development costs are expected to be funded using the net proceeds of the Company’s November 5, 2003 preferred stock issue. The Company expects construction to commence in the fourth quarter of 2003 with completion anticipated for the fourth quarter of 2004. Portfolio Leasing Status

At September 30, 2003, the operating portfolio consisted of 30 Shopping Centers and 5 predominantly Office Properties, all of which are located in 7 states and the District of Columbia.

At September 30, 2003, 93.8% of the Company’s 6,430,000 square feet of space was leased to tenants, as compared to 94.3% at September 30, 2002. The shopping center portfolio was 93.8% leased at September 30, 2003 compared to 94.4% at September 30, 2002. The Office

Properties were 93.8% leased at September 30, 2003 compared to 93.9% as of September 30, 2002. The decline in the 2003 period’s leasing percentages compared to the prior year’s period resulted primarily due to approximately 50,000 square feet of vacant space awaiting redevelopment at the recently acquired Old Forte Village shopping center and to a lesser extent, the departure of a restaurant tenant in bankruptcy at Thruway shopping center in Winston-Salem, North Carolina. Subsequent Events

In November 2003, the Company entered into a commitment to borrow $40,000,000 under three new fifteen year, fixed-rate cross-collateralized loans, with an annual interest rate of 5.94% and monthly principal and interest payments calculated using a 25 year amortization period. A balloon payment of $23,579,000 will be due at maturity. The loans will be secured by the Company’s Broadlands Village, The Glen and Kentlands Square shopping centers. Net proceeds after repayment of debt are expected to total approximately $8,000,000 and will be used to fund future developments, expansions or acquisitions, and general corporate uses. Results of Operations

The following discussion compares the results of the Company for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively. This information should be read in conjunction with the accompanying consolidated financial statements and the notes related thereto. These financial statements include all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the interim periods presented. Three Months Ended September 30, 2003 Compared to Three Months Ended September 30, 2002

Revenues for the three-month period ended September 30, 2003 (the “2003 Quarter”), totaled $24,659,000 compared to $23,471,000 for the comparable quarter in 2002 (the “2002 Quarter”), an increase of $1,188,000 (5.1%).

Base rent income was $19,751,000 for the 2003 Quarter, compared to $19,184,000 for the 2002 Quarter, representing an increase of $567,000 (3.0%). The increase was primarily attributable to leases in effect at recently acquired and developed properties: Ashburn Village IV, Kentland Square and Old Forte Village. During the 2003 Quarter, the Company recorded an approximately $495,000 decrease in base rent at 601 Pennsylvania Avenue resulting from the departure of a major tenant whose lease expired during the first quarter of 2003. The major tenant was also paying higher rent under the terms of a short-term lease extension during the prior year period, increasing the magnitude of the variance between periods. The base rent decline at 601 Pennsylvania Avenue was substantially mitigated by the continued lease-up of space at Washington Square (approximately $300,000) and releasing space at several other properties at increased rental rates.

Expense recoveries were $3,303,000 for the 2003 Quarter compared to $3,207,000 for the comparable 2002 Quarter, representing an increase of $96,000 (3.0%). The increase was primarily attributable to the commencement of operations at the newly acquired and developed properties.

Percentage rent was $438,000 in the 2003 Quarter, compared to $446,000 in the 2002 Quarter, a decrease of $8,000 (1.8%).

Other income, which consists primarily of parking income at three of the Office Properties, kiosk leasing, temporary leases and payments associated with early termination of leases, was $1,167,000 in the 2003 Quarter, compared to $634,000 in the 2002 Quarter, representing an increase of $533,000 (84.1%). The increase in other income primarily resulted from an approximately $320,000 lease termination payment received from an office tenant at Avenel Business Park and the collection of amounts owed by a former tenant and a tenant in bankruptcy which had been included in the provision for credit losses in years prior.

Operating expenses, consisting primarily of repairs and maintenance, utilities, property payroll, insurance and other property related expenses, increased $212,000 (8.7%) to $2,653,000 in the 2003 Quarter from $2,441,000 in the 2002 Quarter. Approximately two-thirds of the increase resulted from the settlement of a dispute with a former tenant at Crosstown Business Park and related legal expenses. Approximately 30% of the increase resulted from the commencement of operations in tenant spaces not occupied at Washington Square during the previous year’s period.

The provision for credit losses decreased $105,000 (80.2%) to $26,000 in the 2003 Quarter from $131,000 in the 2002 Quarter. The credit loss decrease resulted primarily due to the absence of any significant tenant bankruptcy or collection difficulties in the 2003 Quarter as compared to the 2002 Quarter when the Company established an approximately $85,000 reserve for rents owed by an office tenant in bankruptcy at 601 Pennsylvania Avenue.

Real estate taxes increased $183,000 (9.4%) to $2,130,000 in the 2003 Quarter from $1,947,000 in the 2002 Quarter. Approximately 25% of the increase in real estate tax expense in the 2003 Quarter resulted from increased real estate taxes assessed at 601 Pennsylvania Avenue, while approximately 50% of the increase resulted from taxes paid at recently acquired properties.

Interest expense increased $231,000 (3.6%) to $6,566,000 for the 2003 Quarter from $6,335,000 reported for the 2002 Quarter. The increase resulted primarily from the placement of a new $42.5 million, 15 year, 6.01% fixed rate mortgage replacing Washington Square’s construction loan which charged interest at a variable rate averaging 3.4% during the prior year’s quarter.

Amortization of deferred debt expense increased $21,000 (11.7%) to $201,000 for the 2003 Quarter compared to $180,000 for the 2002 Quarter. The increase resulted primarily from the amortization of additional loan costs associated with refinancing the Company’s unsecured revolving credit facility during the third quarter of 2002.

Depreciation and amortization expense decreased $1,029,000 (18.4%) from $5,578,000 in the 2002 Quarter to $4,549,000 in the 2003 Quarter. The decrease resulted primarily from a

charge of approximately $1,311,000 recorded during the 2002 Quarter for assets retired based upon a comprehensive review of real estate asset records and the Company’s revision of the assets’ estimated useful lives.

General and administrative expense, which consists of corporate payroll, administrative and other overhead expenses, increased $143,000 (10.5%) to $1,499,000 for the 2003 Quarter compared to $1,356,000 for the 2002 Quarter. The increase in 2003 expenses compared to 2002 resulted primarily due to increased payroll and related employment expenses (66%) and corporate insurance premiums (16%). Nine Months Ended September 30, 2003 Compared to Nine Months Ended September 30, 2002

Revenues for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2003 (the “2003 Period”), totaled $71,755,000 compared to $69,455,000 for the comparable period in 2002 (the “2002 Period”), an increase of $2,300,000 (3.3%).

Base rent income was $57,733,000 for the 2003 Period, compared to $56,532,000 for the 2002 Period, representing an increase of $1,201,000 (2.1%). The increase was primarily attributable to leases in effect at recently acquired and developed properties: Ashburn Village IV, Kentland Square and Old Forte Village. The Company recorded an approximately $2,000,000 decrease in base rent at 601 Pennsylvania Avenue resulting from the departure of a major tenant whose lease expired during the first quarter of 2003. The major tenant was also paying higher rent under the terms of a short-term lease extension during the prior year period, increasing the magnitude of the variance between periods. The base rent decline at 601 Pennsylvania Avenue was substantially mitigated by the continued lease-up of space at Washington Square (approximately $1,130,000) and releasing space at several other properties at increased rental rates.

Expense recoveries were $10,473,000 for the 2003 Period compared to $9,317,000 for the comparable 2002 Period, representing an increase of $1,156,000 (12.4%). Approximately $450,000 (40%) of the increase in expense recovery income resulted from billings to tenants for their share of increased snow removal expenses during the 2003 Period, and approximately 30% of the increase in expense recoveries resulted from the commencement of operations at the newly acquired and developed properties.

Percentage rent was $1,102,000 in the 2003 Period, compared to $1,220,000 in the 2002 Period, a decrease of $118,000 (9.7%). Three properties were primarily responsible for the decrease in percentage rent. Approximately half of the decline occurred at White Oak shopping center where its department store anchor has suffered an 8% decline in sales compared to the prior year’s period. The remainder of the decline occurred at Southside and Thruway where a drug store at each center is paying higher minimum rent in lieu of percentage rent.

Other income, which consists primarily of parking income at three of the Office Properties, kiosk leasing, temporary leases and payments associated with early termination of leases, was $2,447,000 in the 2003 Period, compared to $2,386,000 in the 2002 Period, representing an increase of $61,000 (2.6%). The increase in other income primarily resulted from increased parking income at Washington Square where office occupancy has stabilized during the completion of the project’s lease-up.

Operating expenses, consisting primarily of repairs and maintenance, utilities, property payroll, insurance and other property related expenses, increased $1,096,000 (15.3%) to $8,261,000 in the 2003 Period from $7,165,000 in the 2002 Period. Unseasonably severe winter weather primarily in the Mid-Atlantic region resulted in snow removal expense in excess of $700,000 in the 2003 Period compared to $50,000 during the 2002 Period. Approximately $130,000 of the increase resulted from the settlement of a dispute with a former tenant at Crosstown Business Park and related legal expenses. The Company also paid increased property insurance premiums of approximately $140,000 during the 2003 Period.

The provision for credit losses decreased $284,000 (70.6%) to $118,000 in the 2003 Period from $402,000 in the 2002 Period. The credit loss decrease resulted primarily due to the absence of any significant tenant bankruptcy or collection difficulties in the 2003 Period as compared to the 2002 Period when the Company established reserves for two office tenants in bankruptcy and a reserve for a rent dispute with another office tenant.

Real estate taxes increased $474,000 (8.0%) to $6,391,000 in the 2003 Period from $5,917,000 in the 2002 Period. Approximately 40% of the increase in real estate tax expense in the 2003 Period resulted from the commencement of operations at the newly acquired and developed properties. Approximately 30% of the real estate tax increase resulted from increased real estate taxes assessed at 601 Pennsylvania Avenue.

Interest expense increased $769,000 (4.1%) to $19,526,000 for the 2003 Period from $18,757,000 reported for the 2002 Period. The increase resulted primarily from the placement of a new $42.5 million, 15 year, 6.01% fixed rate mortgage replacing Washington Square’s construction loan which charged interest at a variable rate averaging 3.5% during the prior year’s period.

Amortization of deferred debt expense increased $94,000 (18.7%) to $598,000 for the 2003 Period compared to $504,000 for the 2002 Period. The increase primarily resulted from the amortization of additional loan costs associated with refinancing the Company’s unsecured revolving credit facility during the third quarter of 2002.

Depreciation and amortization expense decreased $1,006,000 (7.2%) from $13,882,000 in the 2002 Period to $12,876,000 in the 2003 Period. The decrease resulted primarily from a charge of approximately $1,311,000 recorded during the 2002 Period for assets retired based upon a comprehensive review of real estate asset records and the Company’s revision of the assets’ estimated useful lives.

General and administrative expense, which consists of corporate payroll, administrative and other overhead expenses, increased $495,000 (12.7%) to $4,395,000 for the 2003 Period compared to $3,900,000 for the 2002 Period. The increase in 2003 expenses compared to 2002 resulted in part from increased payroll and related employment expenses (50%), increased corporate insurance premiums (18%), data processing expenses (13%) and office rent (9%).

The Company recognized a gain on the sale of real estate of $1,426,000 in the 2002 Period. There were no gains reported in the 2003 Period. In 1999, the District of Columbia condemned and purchased the Company’s Park Road property as part of an assemblage of parcels for a neighborhood revitalization project. The Company disputed the original purchase price awarded by the District. The gain represents additional net proceeds the Company was awarded upon settlement of the dispute. Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

The Company is exposed to certain financial market risks, the most predominant being fluctuations in interest rates. Interest rate fluctuations are monitored by management as an integral part of the Company’s overall risk management program, which recognizes the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to reduce the potentially adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations. The Company does not enter into financial instruments for trading purposes.

The Company is exposed to interest rate fluctuations primarily as a result of its variable rate debt used to finance the Company’s development and acquisition activities and for general corporate purposes. As of September 30, 2003, the Company had variable rate indebtedness totaling $61,518,000. Interest rate fluctuations will affect the Company’s annual interest expense on its variable rate debt. If the interest rate on the Company’s variable rate debt instruments outstanding at September 30, 2003 had been one percent higher, our annual interest expense relating to these debt instruments would have increased by $615,000, based on those balances. Interest rate fluctuations will also affect the fair value of the Company’s fixed rate debt instruments. As of September 30, 2003, the Company had fixed rate indebtedness totaling $339,150,000. If interest rates on the Company’s fixed rate debt instruments at September 30, 2003 had been one percent higher, the fair value of those debt instruments on that date would have decreased by approximately $20,397,000. Item 4. Controls and Procedures

The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Company’s reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its Chairman and Chief Executive Officer and its Senior Vice President, Chief Financial Officer, Secretary and Treasurer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure based closely on the definition of “disclosure controls and procedures” in Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Exchange Act. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

AGREEMENT OF LIMITED PARTNERSHIP OF SAUL HOLDINGS LIMITED PARTNERSHIP

THIS SIXTH AMENDMENT TO THE FIRST AMENDED AND RESTATED AGREEMENT OF LIMITED PARTNERSHIP

OF SAUL HOLDINGS LIMITED PARTNERSHIP (this “Sixth Amendment”), dated as of November 5, 2003, is entered into by the undersigned party.

W I T N E S S E T H:

WHEREAS, Saul Holdings Limited Partnership (the “Partnership”) was formed as a Maryland limited partnership pursuant to that certain Certificate of Limited Partnership dated June 16, 1993 and filed on June 16, 1993 among the partnership records of the Maryland State Department of Assessments and Taxation, and that certain Agreement of Limited Partnership dated June 16, 1993 (the “Original Agreement”);

WHEREAS, the Original Agreement was amended and restated in its entirety by that certain First Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership of the Partnership dated August 26, 1993, which was further amended by that certain First Amendment dated August 26, 1993, by that certain Second Amendment dated March 31, 1994, by that certain Third Amendment dated July 21, 1994, by that certain Fourth Amendment dated December 1, 1996 and by that certain Fifth Amendment dated July 6, 2000 (as amended, the “Agreement”);

WHEREAS, on November 5, 2003, Saul Centers, Inc. (the “General Partner”) issued 35,000 shares of 8% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock (the “Series A Preferred Shares,” each a “Series A Preferred Share”) at a gross offering price of $2,500.00 per Series A Preferred Share and, in connection therewith, the General Partner, pursuant to Section 8.7.C of the Agreement, is required to contribute the proceeds of such issuance to the Partnership and cause the Partnership to issue to the General Partner preferred equity ownership interests in the Partnership (“Series A Preferred Partnership Units”); and

WHEREAS, the General Partner desires to amend the Agreement pursuant to its authority under Sections 2.4 and 14.1.B of the Agreement and the powers of attorney granted to the General Partner by the Limited Partners in order to reflect the aforementioned issuance of the Series A Preferred Partnership Units.

1. The Agreement is hereby amended by the addition of a new exhibit, entitled Exhibit F, in the form attached hereto, which sets forth the designations, allocations, preferences and other special rights, powers and duties of the Series A Preferred Partnership Units and which shall be attached to and made a part of the Agreement.

2. Pursuant to Section 8.7.C of the Agreement, effective as of November 5, 2003, the issuance date of the Series A Preferred Shares by the General Partner, the Partnership hereby issues 35,000 Series A Preferred Partnership Units to the General Partner as provided in Exhibit F.

In return for the issuance to the General Partner of the Series A Preferred Partnership Units, the General Partner has contributed to the Partnership the funds raised through its issuance of the Series A Preferred Shares (the General Partner’s capital contribution shall be deemed to equal the amount of the gross proceeds of that share issuance, i.e., the net proceeds actually contributed, plus any underwriter’s discount or other expenses incurred, with any such discount or expense deemed to have been incurred by the General Partner on behalf of the Partnership).

3. In order to reflect the issuance of the Series A Preferred Partnership Units, Exhibit A to the Agreement is hereby amended by adding to the end of such Exhibit A the following table: Series A Preferred Partnership Units

4. The foregoing recitals are incorporated in and are part of this Sixth Amendment.

have the same meaning for purposes of this Sixth Amendment as in the Agreement.

6. Except as specifically amended hereby, the terms, covenants, provisions and conditions of the Agreement shall remain unmodified and continue in full force and effect and, except as amended hereby, all of the terms, covenants, provisions and conditions of the Agreement are hereby ratified and confirmed in all respects.

EXHIBIT F

DESIGNATION OF THE SERIES A PREFERRED PARTNERSHIP UNITS OF SAUL HOLDINGS LIMITED PARTNERSHIP

1. Number of Units and Designation.

A class of ownership interests in the Partnership entitled “Series A Preferred Partnership Units” is hereby designated and the

number of Series A Preferred Partnership Units constituting such class shall be 40,000.

2. Definitions.

For purposes of the Series A Preferred Partnership Units, the following terms shall have the meanings indicated in this Section 2, and capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the Agreement:

“Distribution Payment Date” means any date on which cash dividends are paid on all outstanding shares of the Series A Preferred Shares.

“Liquidation Preference” has the meaning set forth in Section 4 of this Exhibit F.

“Series A Preferred Partnership Units” means the preferred equity ownership interests in the Partnership issued to the General Partner by the Partnership in connection with the issuance by the General Partner of the Series A Preferred Shares, having the designations, preferences and rights set forth in this Exhibit F.

“Series A Preferred Shares” means the 8% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock issued by the General Partner.

3. Distributions.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 5.2 of the Agreement, on each Distribution Payment Date, the General Partner shall cause distributions of Available Cash to be made in cash to the General Partner with respect to the Series A Preferred Partnership Units in an amount equal to the amount that is required to be distributed by the General Partner on that date to the holders of Series A Preferred Shares. The Series A Preferred Partnership Units shall not be entitled to any distributions of Available Cash, whether payable in cash, property or stock, except as provided herein.

4. Liquidation Preference.

In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Partnership, whether voluntary or involuntary, before any payment or distribution of the Partnership (whether capital, surplus or otherwise) shall be made under Section 13.2.A(3) to any classes of ownership interest in the Partnership that are junior in priority to the Series A Preferred Partnership Units, the Series A Preferred Partnership Units shall be entitled to a preference (the “Liquidation Preference”)

ˆ17JPMRZ7S72TWLB(Š17JPMRZ7S72TWLB




nycdoc17.6

Page 1 of 1

equal to the sum of (i) $2,500 per Series A Preferred Partnership Unit, plus (ii) an amount per Series A Preferred Partnership Unit equal to any accrued and unpaid dividends on one Series A Preferred Share to the date of final distribution. Until the Liquidation Preference with respect to the Series A Preferred Partnership Units has been paid in full, no payment shall be made under Section 13.2.A(3) with respect to any classes of ownership interest in the Partnership that are junior in priority to the Series A Preferred Partnership Units. If, upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Partnership, the assets of the Partnership, or proceeds thereof, distributable with respect to the Series A Preferred Partnership Units shall be insufficient to pay in full the Liquidation Preference and liquidating payments on any ownership interests in the Partnership that are on a parity with the Series A Preferred Partnership Units, then such assets, or the proceeds thereof, shall be distributed among the Series A Preferred Partnership Units and any such ownership interests in the Partnership on the same parity as the Series A Preferred Partnership Units, ratably in the same proportion as the respective amounts that would be payable on such Series A Preferred Partnership Units and any such other ownership interests in the Partnership on the same parity if all amounts payable thereon were paid in full. After payment in full of the Liquidation Preference, the Series A Preferred Partnership Units shall have no right or claim to any of the remaining assets of the Partnership. For the purposes of this Section 4, (i) a consolidation or merger of the Partnership with one or more partnerships, or (ii) a sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the Partnership’s assets shall not be deemed to be a liquidation, dissolution or winding up, voluntary or involuntary, of the Partnership.

5. Redemption.

Series A Preferred Partnership Units shall be redeemable by the Partnership as follows:

(a) At any time that the General Partner exercises its right to redeem all or any of the Series A Preferred Shares, the General Partner shall cause the Partnership to concurrently redeem an equal number of Series A Preferred Partnership Units, at a redemption price per Series A Preferred Partnership Unit payable in cash and equal to the same price per share paid by the General Partner to redeem the Series A Preferred Stock (i.e., a redemption price of $2,500.00 per Series A Preferred Share, plus any accrued and unpaid dividends thereon). No interest shall accrue for the benefit of the Series A Preferred Partnership Units to be redeemed on any cash set aside by the Partnership.

(b) If the Partnership shall redeem Series A Preferred Partnership Units pursuant to paragraph (a) of this Section 5, from and after the redemption date (unless the Partnership shall fail to make available the amount of cash necessary to effect such redemption), (i) except for payment of the redemption price, the Partnership shall not make any further distributions on the Series A Preferred Partnership Units so called for redemption, (ii) said units shall no longer be deemed to be outstanding, and (iii) all rights of the holders thereof as holders of Series A Preferred Partnership Units of the Partnership shall cease except the rights to receive the cash payable upon such redemption, without interest thereon.

(c) If fewer than all the outstanding Series A Preferred Partnership Units are to be redeemed, units to be redeemed shall be determined pro rata, by lot or in such other manner from outstanding Series A Preferred Partnership Units not previously called for redemption by any method determined by the General Partner in its discretion. Upon any such redemption, the General Partner shall amend Exhibit A to the Agreement as appropriate to reflect such redemption.

Page 1 of 1

6. Status of Reacquired Units.

All Series A Preferred Partnership Units which shall have been issued and reacquired in any manner by the Partnership shall be deemed cancelled.

7. Ranking.

The Series A Preferred Partnership Units shall be deemed to rank:

(a) senior to all existing Partnership Interests;

(b) senior to any class or series of ownership interests in the Partnership, as to the payment of distributions and as to distributions of assets upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up, if such class or series is hereafter issued in connection with the future issuance by the General Partner of common stock or any other equity securities ranking junior to the Series A Preferred Shares;

(c) on a parity with any class or series of ownership interests in the Partnership, as to the payment of distributions and as to distributions of assets upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up, if such class or series is hereafter issued in connection with the future authorization or designation by the General Partner of equity securities, the terms of which specifically provide that such equity securities rank on a parity with the Series A Preferred Shares; and

(d) junior to any class or series of ownership interests in the Partnership, as to payment of distributions and as to distribution of assets upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up, if such class or series is hereafter issued in connection with the future authorization or designation by the General Partner of equity securities, the terms of which specifically provide that such class or series ranks senior to the Series A Preferred Shares.

The term “ownership interests in the Partnership” does not include convertible debt securities issued in the future by the Partnership, which will rank senior to the Series A Preferred Partnership Units prior to conversion. All Series A Preferred Partnership Units shall rank equally with one another and shall be identical in all respects.

8. Special Allocations.

Notwithstanding Sections 6.1.A and B of the Agreement, after giving effect to the special allocations set forth in Section 1 of Exhibit C to the Agreement, each year gross income of the Partnership shall be allocated first to the General Partner until the cumulative amount allocated under this Section 8 to the General Partner for the current year and all prior years is equal to the cumulative amount for the current year and all prior years of the sum of (A) the distributions made to the General Partner under Section 3 of this Exhibit F, (B) the portion of the distributions made to the General Partner under Section 5 of this Exhibit F (if any) that exceeds $2,500 per Series A Preferred Partnership Unit, and (C) for the year in which a distribution is to be made to

ˆ17JPMRZ7S72=ZXBJŠ17JPMRZ7S72=ZXB




nycdoc17.6

Page 1 of 1

the General Partner under Section 4 of this Exhibit F, the portion of the Liquidating Preference payable to the General Partner under Section 4 (if any) that exceeds $2,500 per Series A Preferred Partnership Unit. Any remaining Net Income or Net Loss shall be allocated as set forth in Sections 6.1.A and B of the Agreement.

9. Restrictions on Ownership.

The Series A Preferred Partnership Units shall be owned and held solely by the General Partner.

10. Conversion.

The Series A Preferred Partnership Units shall not be convertible into or exchangeable for any other property or securities of the Partnership or any other entity.

11. General.

(a) The General Partner shall have a zero percent Partnership Interest with respect to the Series A Partnership Units and shall have no voting rights with respect to the Series A Preferred Partnership Units other than the right to vote on an amendment to the Agreement if it would alter the distribution, redemption or liquidation rights of the Series A Preferred Partnership Units or any other rights or preferences of the Series A Preferred Partnership Units as set forth in this Exhibit F.

(b) The Series A Preferred Partnership Units shall not be entitled to the benefits of any retirement or sinking fund.

(c) The Series A Preferred Partnership Units shall not have any preferences or other rights, voting powers, restrictions, limitations as to distributions, qualifications or terms or conditions of redemption other than as expressly set forth in this Exhibit F.

(d) No holder of Series A Preferred Partnership Units shall have any preemptive or preferential right to subscribe for, or to purchase, any additional ownership interests in the Partnership of any class or series, or any other security of the Partnership which the Partnership may issue or sell.

(e) The ownership of Series A Preferred Partnership Units may (but need not, in the sole and absolute discretion of the General Partner) be evidenced by one or more certificates. The General Partner shall amend Exhibit A to the Agreement from time to time to the extent necessary to reflect accurately the issuance of, and subsequent redemption, or any other event having an effect on the ownership of, Series A Preferred Partnership Units.

(f) The rights of the General Partner, in its capacity as holder of the Series A Preferred Partnership Units, are in addition to and not in limitation of any other rights or authority of the General Partner in any other capacity under the Agreement or applicable law. In addition, nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit or otherwise restrict the authority of the General Partner under the Agreement, other than in its capacity as holder of the Series A Preferred Partnership Units.

(g) If any preferences or other rights, restrictions, distributions, qualifications, allocations or terms or conditions of redemption of the Series A Preferred Partnership Units set forth in this Exhibit F are invalid, unlawful or incapable of being enforced by reason of any rule of law or public policy, all other preferences or other rights, restrictions, distributions, qualifications, allocations or terms or conditions of redemption of Series A Preferred Partnership Units set forth in this Exhibit F which can be given effect without the invalid, unlawful or unenforceable provision thereof shall, nevertheless, remain in full force and effect and no preferences or other rights, restrictions, distributions, qualifications, allocations or terms or conditions of redemption of the Series A Preferred Partnership Units herein set forth shall be deemed dependent on any other provision thereof unless so expressed therein.
