SECTION 16(a) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended ("Exchange Act") requires the Company's officers, trust managers and persons who own more than 10% of the Company's common shares of beneficial interest, par value $.01 per share (the "Common Shares") or the Company's 6-3/4% Series A convertible cumulative preferred shares of beneficial interest, par value $.01 per share (the "Preferred Shares") to file reports of ownership on Form 3 and changes in ownership on Forms 4 and 5 with the SEC and the New York Stock Exchange. The SEC rules also require such officers, trust managers and 10% holders to furnish the Company with copies of all Section 16(a) forms that they file. Based solely on its review of copies of such reports received or written representations from certain reporting persons, the Company believes that all Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to its officers, trust managers and 10% shareholders were complied with for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2003, except that (i) each of Messrs.

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT As part of the transactions in connection with formation of the Company, the Operating Partnership assumed an employment agreement between Rainwater, Inc. and John C. Goff. The Operating Partnership takes action through the General Partner. Mr. Goff serves as the sole member of the board of directors of the General Partner. On February 19, 2002, the Company, the Operating Partnership and Mr. Goff entered into a new employment agreement, which will terminate on February 19, 2007, pursuant to which Mr. Goff is entitled to an annual salary of $900,000 for 2003 and a bonus as determined in the discretion of the Compensation Committee of the General Partner. In addition, pursuant to the employment agreement, Mr. Goff was provided the right to earn (i) 300,000 shares of restricted stock, one-third of which will be earned on each of February 19, 2005, 2006 and 2007 and (ii) 1,500,000 Unit Options, one-fifth of which will be 8 earned on each of February 19, 2003 through 2007. The Units underlying such Unit Options are exchangeable into two Common Shares of the Company upon the satisfaction of certain conditions, including shareholder approval of the exchange right. The salary under the employment agreement, which is not subject to a cap, may be increased at the discretion of the Operating Partnership or, upon the Operating Partnership's request, the Executive Compensation Committee of the Company may review and ratify all such increases in salary. The Operating Partnership similarly determines any bonus to be paid under the employment agreement, unless it requests the Executive Compensation Committee to review and ratify any such bonuses granted to Mr. Goff. AGREEMENTS NOT TO COMPETE The Company and the Operating Partnership are dependent on the services of Richard E. Rainwater and John C. Goff. Mr. Rainwater serves as Chairman of the Board of Trust Managers but has no employment agreement with the Company and, therefore, is not obligated to remain with the Company for any specified term. In connection with the initial public offering of the Common Shares in May 1994, each of Messrs. Rainwater and Goff entered into a Noncompetition Agreement with the Company that restricts him from engaging in certain real estate-related activities during specified periods of time. The restrictions that Mr. Rainwater's Noncompetition Agreement imposes will terminate one year after the later to occur of (i) the date on which Mr. Rainwater ceases to serve as a trust manager of the Company, and (ii) the date on which Mr. Rainwater's beneficial ownership of the Company (including Common Shares and Units) first represents less than a 2.5% ownership interest in the Company. The restrictions that Mr. Goff's Noncompetition Agreement imposes will terminate one year after Mr. Goff first ceases to be a trust manager or an executive officer of the Company. The Noncompetition Agreements do not, among other things, prohibit Messrs. Rainwater and Goff from engaging in certain activities in which they were engaged at the time of formation of the Company in 1994 or from making certain passive real estate investments. TRUST MANAGER COMPENSATION During 2003, each Outside Trust Manager received an annual fee of $40,000 (payable in cash or, at the election of the trust manager, in Common Shares in an amount determined by dividing the fees otherwise payable by 90% of the fair market value of the Common Shares). In addition, during 2003, each Outside Trust Manager received a meeting fee of $1,500 for each Board of Trust Managers meeting attended in person or by telephone, a fee of $2,000 for the Audit Committee Chairman's participation in each Audit Committee meeting attended in person or by telephone, a fee of $1,500 for each Audit Committee member's participation in each Audit Committee meeting attended in person or by telephone, a fee of $1,500 for all other committee chairmen's participation in each committee meeting attended in person or by telephone, and a fee of $1,000 for all other committee members' participation in each committee meeting attended in person or by telephone. In addition, each Outside Trust Manager annually receives a grant of 14,000 Stock Options under the Company's 1995 Stock Incentive Plan, as amended. Trust managers who are also officers receive no separate compensation for their service as trust managers. COMPENSATION COMMITTEE INTERLOCKS AND INSIDER PARTICIPATION Messrs. Frank, Rowsey and Worrell, all of whom are members of the Board of Trust Managers of the Company, served as members of the Executive Compensation Committee during 2003.

Subsidiaries of COPI became lessees of eight of the Company's hotel and resort properties and acquired the voting interests in three of the Company's residential development corporations. In addition, the Company made loans to COPI under a line of credit and various term loans. Messrs. Rainwater and Goff are, respectively, the Chairman of the Board and the Vice Chairman of the Board of the Company and, until February 14, 2002, were also, respectively, the Chairman of the Board and the Vice Chairman of the Board of COPI. In addition, Mr. Goff serves as the Chief Executive Officer of the Company and the General Partner and as the sole director of the General Partner and, until February 14, 2002, also served as Chief Executive Officer of COPI. Messrs. Frank and Rowsey are members of the Board of the Company and, until their resignations on February 14, 2002, were members of the board of directors of COPI. As of March 31, 2004, Messrs. Rainwater and Goff beneficially owned an aggregate of approximately 12.3% of the outstanding common stock of COPI through their aggregate ownership of 1,331,105 shares of COPI common stock, excluding shares underlying vested options. 13 Reorganization Transactions. On February 14, 2002, pursuant to an agreement (the "Agreement") with COPI, the Company acquired COPI's lessee interests in the eight hotel and resort properties and the voting interests in three residential development corporations and other assets. In consideration of these transfers, COPI's rent and debt obligations to the Company were reduced. Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, the Company and COPI are jointly seeking to have a pre-packaged bankruptcy plan for COPI, reflecting the terms of the Agreement, approved by the bankruptcy court. Under the Agreement, the Company has agreed to provide approximately $14.0 million to COPI in the form of cash and Common Shares of the Company to fund costs, claims and expenses relating to the bankruptcy and related transactions, and to provide for the distribution of the Company's Common Shares to the COPI stockholders. The Company has also agreed, however, that it will issue Common Shares with a minimum dollar value of approximately $2.2 million to the COPI stockholders, even if it would cause the total costs, claims and expenses that it pays to exceed $14.0 million. Since February 15, 2002, the Company has loaned to COPI, or paid directly on COPI's behalf, approximately $13.0 million to fund costs, claims and expenses through March 31, 2004 relating to the bankruptcy and related transactions. In addition, the Company has agreed to use commercially reasonable efforts to assist COPI in arranging COPI's repayment of its $15.0 million obligation to Bank of America, together with any accrued interest. The Company expects to form and capitalize a new entity ("Crescent Spinco") to be owned by the shareholders of the Company. Crescent Spinco then would purchase COPI's interest in AmeriCold Logistics, LLC ("AmeriCold Logistics") for between $15.0 million and $15.5 million. COPI has agreed that it will use the proceeds of the sale of the AmeriCold Logistics interest to repay Bank of America in full. COPI obtained the loan from Bank of America primarily to participate in investments with the Company. At the time COPI obtained the loan, Bank of America required, as a condition to making the loan, that Messrs. Rainwater, and Goff, enter into a support agreement with COPI and Bank of America. Pursuant to the support agreement, Messrs. Rainwater and Goff agreed to make additional equity investments in COPI if COPI defaulted on payment obligations under its line of credit with Bank of America and if the net proceeds of an offering of COPI securities were insufficient to allow COPI to repay Bank of America in full. Previously, the Company held a first lien security interest in COPI's entire membership interest in AmeriCold Logistics. REIT rules prohibit the Company from acquiring or owning the membership interest that COPI owns in AmeriCold Logistics. Under the Agreement, the Company agreed to allow COPI to grant Bank of America a first priority security interest in the membership interest and to subordinate its own security interest to that of Bank of America. On March 6, 2003, the COPI stockholders voted to approve the COPI bankruptcy plan. On March 10, 2003, COPI filed the plan under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Texas. If the plan is approved by the bankruptcy court, the holders of COPI's common stock will receive Common Shares of the Company. As stockholders of COPI, Mr. Rainwater and Mr. Goff will also receive Common Shares of the Company. Pursuant to the COPI bankruptcy plan, the current and former directors and officers of COPI and the current and former trust managers and officers of the Company also have received a release from COPI of liability for any actions taken prior to February 14, 2002, and, depending on various factors, will receive certain liability releases from COPI and its stockholders. Completion and effectiveness of the pre-packaged bankruptcy plan for COPI is contingent upon a number of conditions, including the approval of the plan by certain of COPI's creditors and the confirmation of the plan by the bankruptcy court. OTHER Since June 1999, the Company has contributed approximately $23.8 million to DBL Holdings, Inc. ("DBL"). The contribution was used by DBL to make an equity contribution to DBL-ABC, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of DBL, which committed to purchase an affiliated partnership interest representing a 12.5% interest in G2 Opportunity Fund, LP ("G2"). G2 was formed for the purpose of investing in commercial mortgage backed securities and other commercial real estate investments and is managed and controlled by an entity (the "G2 General Partner") that is owned equally by Goff-Moore Strategic Partners, L.P. ("GMSP") and GMAC Commercial Mortgage Corporation. The G2 General Partner is entitled to an annual asset management fee. Additionally, the G2 General Partner has a 1% interest in profits and losses of G2 and, after payment of specified amounts to partners, a promoted interest based on payments to unaffiliated limited partners. As an affiliated limited partner, DBL-ABC, Inc.'s returns are not impacted by the G2 General Partner's promoted interest. As of December 31, 2003, DBL-ABC, Inc. has received approximately $20.9 million cumulative distributions and recognized approximately $10.0 million cumulative net income bringing the investment balance to approximately $13.3 million. 14 The ownership structure of GMSP consists of an approximately 86% limited partnership interest owned directly and indirectly by Richard E. Rainwater, Chairman of the Board of Trust Managers of the Company, and an approximately 14% general partnership interest, of which approximately 6% is owned by Darla Moore, who is married to Mr. Rainwater, and approximately 6% is owned by John C. Goff, Vice-Chairman of the Company's Board of Trust Managers and Chief Executive Officer of the Company. The remaining approximately 2% general partnership interest is owned by unrelated parties. The Company reimbursed GMSP for the part-time services of an accountant in the amount of $128,353 for 2003. On January 2, 2003, the Company purchased the remaining 2.56% economic interest, representing 100% of the voting stock, in DBL from Mr. Goff. Total consideration paid for Mr. Goff's interest was $0.4 million. The Board of Trust Managers of the Company, including all the independent trust managers, approved the transaction based in part on an appraisal of the assets of DBL by an independent appraisal firm. As a result of this transaction, DBL is wholly-owned by the Company. ---------- Management believes that the foregoing transactions are on terms no less favorable then those that could have been obtained in comparable transactions with unaffiliated parties. 15 ITEM 14.
