Report of Independent Auditors

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Gladstone Commercial Corporation:

We have audited the accompanying historical summary of revenue and certain expenses of 208 South Rogers Lane (the “Property”) as described in Note 1 for the year ended December 31, 2002. This historical summary is the responsibility of the Property’s management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on this historical summary based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the historical summary is free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the historical summary. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall historical summary presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

The accompanying historical summary was prepared for the purpose of complying with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (for inclusion on Form 8-K/A of Gladstone Commercial Corporation) as described in Note 2, and is not intended to be a complete presentation of the Property’s revenue and expenses.

In our opinion, the historical summary referred to above presents fairly, in all material respects, the revenue and certain expenses, as described in Note 2, of the Property for the year ended December 31, 2002, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

208 South Rogers Lane
Notes to Historical Summary of Revenue and Certain Expenses


1.   Business
 
    The accompanying historical summary of revenue and certain expenses relates to the operations of 208 South Rogers Lane (the “Property”), consisting of the revenue and certain expenses of one office building located in Raleigh, North Carolina.
 
2.   Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
 
    Basis of Presentation
 
    The accompanying historical summary of revenue and certain expenses was prepared for the purpose of complying with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission in connection with Gladstone Commercial Corporation’s acquisition of the Property. The historical summary is not representative of the actual operations of the Property for the period presented nor indicative of future operations as certain expenses, primarily depreciation, amortization and interest expense, which may not be comparable to the expenses expected to be incurred by Gladstone Commercial Corporation in future operations of the Property, have been excluded.
     
    Unaudited Interim Statements
 
    The historical summaries of revenue and certain expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 and 2002 are unaudited. As a result, these interim historical summaries should be read in conjunction with the historical summary and notes included in the December 31, 2002 historical summary of revenue and certain expenses. The interim historical summaries reflect all adjustments which management believes are necessary for the fair presentation of the historical summaries of revenue and certain expenses for the interim periods presented. These adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The historical summaries of revenue and certain expenses for such interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results for a full year.
     
    Revenue and Expense Recognition
 
    Revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the related lease. Expenses are recognized in the period in which they are incurred.
 
    Use of Estimates
 
    The preparation of this historical summary in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
 
    Major Tenant
 
    During 2002, the Property’s total rental revenue of $545,541 was attributable to one tenant.
 
    Operating Expenses
 
    The Property has recorded costs (primarily professional fees) totaling $2,035 in property operating expenses. These expenses may not be recorded in such a manner going forward and are not necessarily indicative of expenses that the Property will incur in future operations.
     
    The lease discussed in Notes 3 requires the tenant to pay directly substantially all of the Property's operating expenses. These expenses are not included in the accompanying historical summaries, including approximately $45,000 in property taxes that Gladstone Commercial Corporation will be required to pay if the tenant fails to pay them.

Notes to Historical Summary of Revenue and Certain Expenses


3.   Rental Revenue
 
    On December 15, 1997, the Property entered into a lease agreement with ABB Power T&D Company (“ABB”) for the entire building and parking garage. The lease had an initial term of 7 years and 2 months. On December 4, 2002 Elster Electricity, LLC (Elster) purchased all of the assets and assumed all of the liabilities of the meters division of ABB, including the lease. Effective May 1, 2003, the Property amended the original lease agreement to include Elster as tenant and extended the term of the lease agreement for 7 years and 3 months from the effective date. The lease provides for one renewal option of 5 years with fixed rent increases of 3% per year. Future minimum rentals as of December 31, 2002 to be received under the amended tenant lease are as follows:
