--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                               PROSPECTUS SUMMARY

      This summary highlights information contained elsewhere in this
prospectus. This summary does not contain all of the information that you should
consider before investing in our common stock. You should read the entire
prospectus carefully, especially the risks of investing in our common stock
discussed under "Risk Factors".

                        Franklin Street Properties Corp.

      We operate in two business segments and have two principal sources of
revenue:

      o     Real estate operations, including real estate leasing, interim
            acquisition financing and asset/property management, which generate
            rental income, loan origination fees and management fees,
            respectively.

      o     Investment banking/investment services, which generate brokerage
            commissions and other fees related to the organization of
            single-purpose entities that own real estate and the private
            placement of equity in those entities. We call these entities
            Sponsored Entities, and although we previously organized them as
            partnerships, in 2001 we began to organize them as corporations
            operated in a manner intended to qualify as real estate investment
            trusts, and refer to them as Sponsored REITs.

Real Estate

      We own a portfolio of real estate, consisting of 28 properties as of
August 15, 2004, which includes apartment complexes, office buildings and
industrial use properties. We derive rental revenue from income paid to us by
tenants of these properties.

      FSP Corp. typically makes a loan to each Sponsored REIT secured by a
mortgage on the borrower's real estate. Those loans produce revenue in the form
of interest and loan origination fees. These loans typically are repaid out of
the proceeds of the borrower's equity offering.

      We also provide asset management services, property management services
and/or property accounting services to certain of our Sponsored REITs through
our subsidiary FSP Property Management. FSP Corp. recognizes revenue from our
receipt of fee income from those Sponsored REITs that have not been acquired by
us. FSP Property Management does not receive any rental income.

Investment Banking/Investment Services

      Through our subsidiary FSP Investments, which acts as a real estate
investment banking firm and broker/dealer, we organize Sponsored REITs, and sell
equity in them through private placements exempt from registration under the
Securities Act of 1933. These single-purpose entities each typically acquire a
single real estate asset. FSP Investments sells preferred stock in the Sponsored
REITs through best efforts offerings to "accredited investors" within the
meaning of Regulation D of the Securities Act. We retain 100% of the common
stock interest in the Sponsored REITs. Since 1997, FSP Investments has sponsored
38 Sponsored Entities, 14 of which were partnerships, and 24 of which were
Sponsored REITs.

      FSP Investments derives revenue from commissions received in connection
with the sale of equity interests in the Sponsored REITs and from fees paid by
the Sponsored REITs for its services in identifying, inspecting and negotiating
to purchase real properties on their behalf. FSP Investments is a registered
broker/dealer with the Securities and Exchange Commission and is a member of the
National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. We have made an election to
treat FSP Investments as a "taxable REIT subsidiary" for federal income tax
purposes.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                               Recent Developments

Redemption of Fractional Shares

      On August 16, 2004 we redeemed all of the outstanding fractional shares of
our common stock. We redeemed an aggregate of 576.95 shares of common stock at a
price per share of $17.70 for an aggregate purchase price of $10,212. The price
per share was determined as set forth under "Determination of the Fair Market
Value of Our Common Stock" on page 12.

Listing on AMEX

      We intend to apply to list our common stock on the American Stock
Exchange, or the AMEX, under the symbol "FSP." We expect our listing application
will cover an aggregate of 62,470,934 shares of our common stock, consisting of
all of the shares of our common stock outstanding as of August 13, 2004
(including the shares covered by this prospectus), 1,946,178 shares of our
common stock issuable under our 2002 Stock Incentive Plan and approximately
10,894,994 shares of common stock we intend to issue in the transactions
described below under "Merger Transactions." We cannot give any assurances that
we will file such listing application or, in the event we do, that AMEX will
accept our listing application or that a meaningful trading market in our common
stock will develop should AMEX accept our listing application. Our common stock
is not listed or quoted on any national exchange or market today. If we do not
list our common stock on AMEX or if our listing application is not accepted by
AMEX, there will continue to be no public trading market for our common stock.

Merger Transactions

      On August 13, 2004, FSP Corp., 4 wholly-owned acquisition subsidiaries and
4 real estate investment trusts previously syndicated by FSP Corp., or "Target
REITs", entered into a merger agreement whereby the related wholly-owned
acquisition subsidiary of FSP Corp. will acquire a Target REIT by merger. The
Target REITs are FSP Addison Circle Corp., FSP Collins Crossing Corp., FSP
Montague Business Center Corp. and FSP Royal Ridge Corp., each a Delaware
corporation. The acquisition subsidiaries are Addison Circle Acquisition Corp.,
Collins Crossing Acquisition Corp., Montague Acquisition Corp. and Royal Ridge
Acquisition Corp. The merger agreement also provides for the issuance of shares
of our common stock to the holders of preferred stock of the Target REITs as
merger consideration.

      The merger agreement provides that upon consummation of the mergers, each
share of preferred stock in the Target REITs will be converted into that number
of shares of our common stock set forth below opposite the name of the
applicableTarget REIT.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

      Consummation of the mergers is subject to a number of conditions and will
not occur unless, among other things, the holders of a majority of preferred
stock of each Target REIT vote to approve the mergers. We anticipate the mergers
to be consummated on or about December 31, 2004 or earlier if all the conditions
to the mergers are satisfied.

                              Corporate Information

      FSP Corp. is a Maryland corporation that operates in a manner intended to
qualify as a real estate investment trust for federal income tax purposes. FSP
Corp. is the successor to Franklin Street Partners Limited Partnership, or the
FSP Partnership, which was originally formed as a Massachusetts general
partnership in January 1997 as the successor to a Massachusetts general
partnership that was formed in 1981. On January 1, 2002, the FSP Partnership
converted into FSP Corp. As a result of this conversion, the FSP Partnership
ceased to exist and we succeeded to the business of the FSP Partnership. In the
conversion, each unit of both general and limited partnership interests in the
FSP Partnership was converted into one share of our common stock. As a result of
the conversion, we hold, directly and indirectly, 100% of the interest in three
former subsidiaries of the FSP Partnership: FSP Investments LLC, FSP Property
Management LLC, and FSP Holdings LLC. We operate some of our business through
these subsidiaries.

      On June 1, 2003, we acquired 13 real estate investment trusts by merger.
In these mergers, we issued 25,000,091 shares of our common stock to holders of
preferred stock in these REITs. As a result of these mergers, we now hold all of
the assets previously held by these REITs. As part of its growth strategy, FSP
Corp. may make similar acquisitions in the future. The proposed acquisition of
the Target REITs discussed earlier is part of that strategy.

      Our principal executive offices are located at 401 Edgewater Place, Suite
200, Wakefield, Massachusetts 01880. The telephone number of our principle
executive office is (781) 557-1300. We do not maintain a website.

      For additional information about FSP Corp. and our business, see "Where
You Can Find More Information."

      We use the terms "FSP Corp.", the "company", "we", "us" and "our" in this
prospectus to refer to the business of Franklin Street Properties Corp. and its
subsidiaries unless otherwise noted.

                                  RISK FACTORS

      An investment in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. Our
common stock is not listed or quoted on any national exchange or market. We
intend to apply to list our common stock on the American Stock Exchange, or the
AMEX, under the symbol "FSP." We cannot give any assurances that we will file
such listing application or, in the event we do, that AMEX will accept our
listing application or that a meaningful trading market in our common stock will
develop should AMEX accept our listing application. You should consider
carefully the following information about these risks, together with the other
information contained or incorporated by reference in this prospectus. Any of
the risk factors we describe below could severely harm our business, financial
condition and operating results.

REAL ESTATE AND BUSINESS RISKS

If we are not able to collect sufficient rents from each of our owned real
properties, we may suffer significant operating losses or a reduction in cash
available for future dividends.

      A substantial portion of our revenues are generated by the rental income
of our real properties. If our properties do not provide us with a steady rental
income, our revenues will decrease and may cause us to incur operating losses in
the future or incur a reduction in cash available for future dividends.

We face risks in continuing to attract investors for Sponsored REITs.

      Our investment banking/investment services business continues to depend
upon its ability to attract purchasers of equity interests in Sponsored REITs.
Our success in this area will depend on the propensity and ability of investors
who have previously invested in Sponsored REITs to continue to invest in future
Sponsored REITs and on our ability to expand the investor pool for the Sponsored
REITs by identifying new potential investors. Moreover, our investment
banking/investment services business may be affected to the extent existing
Sponsored REITs incur losses or have operating results that fail to meet
investors' expectations.

If we are unable to fully syndicate a Sponsored REIT, we may be required to keep
a balance outstanding on our line of credit or use our cash balance to repay our
line of credit, which may reduce cash available for distribution to our
stockholders.

      We typically draw on our line of credit to make an interim mortgage loan
to a Sponsored REIT, so that it can acquire real property prior to the
consummation of the offering of its equity interests; this interim loan is
secured by a first mortgage of the real property acquired by the Sponsored REIT.
Once the offering has been completed, the Sponsored REIT repays the loan out of
the offering proceeds. If we are unable to fully syndicate a Sponsored REIT, the
Sponsored REIT could be unable to fully repay the loan, and we would have to
satisfy our obligation under our line of credit through other means. If we are
required to use cash for this purpose, we would have less cash available for
distribution to our stockholders.

We may not be able to find properties that meet our criteria for purchase.

      Growth in our investment banking/investment services business and our
portfolio of real estate is dependent on the ability of our acquisition
executives to find properties for sale which meet our investment criteria. To
the extent they fail to find such properties, we will be unable to syndicate
offerings of Sponsored REITs to investors or enlarge our portfolio, and our
business could have lower revenue, which would reduce the cash available for
distribution to our stockholders.


                                       4


We are dependent on key personnel.

      We depend on the efforts of George Carter, our Chief Executive Officer,
and our other executive officers. If any of them were to resign, our operations
could be adversely affected. We do not have employment agreements with Mr.
Carter or any other of our executive officers.

Our level of dividends may fluctuate.

      Because our investment banking/investment services business is
transactional in nature and real estate occupancy levels and rental rates can
fluctuate, we cannot predict our level of revenue from such activities. As a
result of this, the amount of cash available for distribution may fluctuate,
which may result in us not being able to maintain or grow dividend levels in the
future.

The real properties held by us may significantly decrease in value.

      As of August 27, 2004, we owned 28 properties. Some or all of these
properties may decline in value. To the extent our real properties decline in
value, our stockholders could lose some or all the value of their investments.

New acquisitions may fail to perform as expected.

      We may acquire new properties, whether by cash purchase, by acquisition of
Sponsored REITs or by investment in a Sponsored REIT. Newly acquired properties
may fail to perform as expected, in which case, our results of operations could
be adversely affected.

We face risks in owning and operating real property.

      An investment in us is subject to the risks incident to the ownership and
operation of real estate-related assets. These risks include the fact that real
estate investments are generally illiquid, which may impact our ability to vary
our portfolio in response to changes in economic and other conditions, as well
as the risks normally associated with:

      o     changes in general and local economic conditions;

      o     the supply or demand for particular types of properties in
            particular markets;

      o     changes in market rental rates;

      o     the impact of environmental protection laws; and

      o     changes in tax, real estate and zoning laws.

      Certain significant costs, such as real estate taxes, utilities, insurance
and maintenance costs, generally are not reduced even when a property's rental
income is reduced. In addition, environmental and tax laws, interest rate
levels, the availability of financing and other factors may affect real estate
values and property income. Furthermore, the supply of commercial and
multi-family residential space fluctuates with market conditions.

We face risks from tenant defaults or bankruptcies.

      If any of our tenants defaults on its lease, we may experience delays in
enforcing our rights as a landlord and may incur substantial costs in protecting
our investment. In addition, at any time, a tenant of one of our properties may
seek the protection of bankruptcy laws, which could result in the rejection and
termination of such tenant's lease and thereby cause a reduction in cash
available for distribution to our stockholders.


                                       5


We may encounter significant delays in reletting vacant space, resulting in
losses of income.

      When leases expire, we will incur expenses and may not be able to re-lease
the space on the same terms. Certain leases provide tenants the right to
terminate early if they pay a fee. If we are unable to re-lease space promptly,
if the terms of the replacement bases are significantly less favorable than
anticipated or if the costs are higher, we may have to reduce distributions to
our stockholders.

We face risks from geographic concentration.

      The properties in our portfolio, by aggregate square footage, are
distributed geographically as follows: Southwest - 26%, Northeast - 31%, Midwest
- 19%, West - 16% and Southeast 8%. However, within certain of those segments,
we hold a larger concentration of our properties in Houston, Texas - 18% and
Washington, DC - 13%. We are likely to face risks to the extent that any of
these areas in which we hold a larger concentration of our properties suffer
deteriorating economic conditions.

We compete with national, regional and local real estate operators and
developers, which could adversely affect our cash flow.

      Competition exists in every market in which our properties are located and
in every market in which our properties will be located. We compete with, among
others, national, regional and numerous local real estate operators and
developers. Such competition may adversely affect the percentage of leased space
and the rental revenues of our properties, which could adversely affect our cash
flow from operations and our ability to make expected distributions to our
stockholders. Some of our competitors may have more resources than we do or
other competitive advantages. Competition may be accelerated by any increase in
availability of funds for investment in real estate. For example, decreases in
interest rates tend to increase the availability of funds and therefore can
increase competition. To the extent that our properties continue to operate
profitably, this will likely stimulate new development of competing properties.
The extent to which we are affected by competition will depend in significant
part on local market conditions.

There is limited potential for an increase in leased space gains in our
properties.

      We anticipate that future increases in revenue from our properties will be
primarily the result of scheduled rental rate increases or rental rate increases
as leases expire. Properties with higher rates of vacancy are generally located
in soft economic markets so that it may be difficult to realize increases in
revenue when vacant space is re-leased.

We are subject to possible liability relating to environmental matters, and we
cannot assure you that we have identified all possible liabilities.

      Under various federal, state and local laws, ordinances and regulations,
an owner or operator of real property may become liable for the costs of removal
or remediation of certain hazardous substances released on or in its property.
Such laws may impose liability without regard to whether the owner or operator
knew of, or caused, the release of such hazardous substances. The presence of
hazardous substances on a property may adversely affect the owner's ability to
sell such property or to borrow using such property as collateral, and it may
cause the owner of the property to incur substantial remediation costs. In
addition to claims for cleanup costs, the presence of hazardous substances on a
property could result in the owner incurring substantial liabilities as a result
of a claim by a private party for personal injury or a claim by an adjacent
property owner for property damage.

      In addition:

      o     future laws, ordinances or regulations could impose material
            environmental liability;


                                       6


      o     the current environmental conditions of our properties could be
            affected by the condition of properties in the vicinity of such
            properties (such as the presence of leaking underground storage
            tanks) or by third parties unrelated to us;

      o     tenants could violate their leases by introducing hazardous or toxic
            substances into our properties that could expose us to liability
            under federal or state environmental laws; or

      o     environmental conditions, such as the growth of bacteria and toxic
            mold in heating and ventilation systems or on walls, could occur at
            our properties and pose a threat to human health.

We are subject to compliance with the Americans With Disabilities Act and fire
and safety regulations which could require us to make significant capital
expenditures.

      All of our properties are required to comply with the Americans With
Disabilities Act (ADA), and the regulations, rules and orders that may be issued
thereunder. The ADA has separate compliance requirements for "public
accommodations" and "commercial facilities," but generally requires that
buildings be made accessible to persons with disabilities. Compliance with ADA
requirements might require, among other things, removal of access barriers and
noncompliance could result in the imposition of fines by the U.S. government, or
an award of damages to private litigants.

      In addition, we are required to operate our properties in compliance with
fire and safety regulations, building codes and other land use regulations, as
they may be adopted by governmental agencies and bodies and become applicable to
our properties. Compliance with such requirements may require us to make
substantial capital expenditures, which expenditures would reduce cash otherwise
available for distribution to its stockholders.

There are significant conditions to our obligation to redeem shares of our
common stock, and any such redemption will result in the stockholders tendering
shares receiving less than their fair market value.

      Under our redemption plan, we are only obligated to use our best efforts
to redeem shares of our common stock from stockholders wishing to have them
redeemed. There are significant conditions to our obligation to redeem shares of
our common stock including:

      o     we cannot be insolvent or be rendered insolvent by the redemption;

      o     the redemption cannot impair our capital or operations;

      o     the redemption cannot contravene any provision of federal or state
            securities laws;

      o     the redemption cannot result in our failing to qualify as a REIT;
            and

      o     our management must determine that the redemption is in our best
            interests.

      Any redemption effected by us under this plan would result in those
stockholders tendering shares of our common stock receiving 90% of the fair
market value of such shares, as determined by our board of directors in its sole
and absolute discretion, and not their full fair market value. If our common
stock becomes listed for trading on AMEX or any other national securities
exchange or the NASDAQ National Market, we will no longer be obligated to effect
any redemption.


                                       7


We may lose capital investment or anticipated profits if an uninsured event
occurs.

      We carry or our tenants are obligated to carry comprehensive liability,
fire and extended coverage with respect to each of our properties, with policy
specification and insured limits customarily carried for similar properties.
There are, however, certain types of losses, such as from wars, terrorist
events, pollution or earthquakes, that may be either uninsurable or not
economically insurable (although the properties located in California all have
earthquake insurance). Should an uninsured material loss occur, we could lose
both capital invested in the property and anticipated profits.

Contingent or unknown liabilities acquired in mergers or similar transactions
could require us to make substantial payments.

      The properties which we acquired in mergers were acquired subject to
liabilities and without any recourse with respect to liabilities, whether known
or unknown. As a result, if liabilities were asserted against us based upon any
of these properties, we might have to pay substantial sums to settle them, which
could adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition and our
cash flow and ability to make distributions to our stockholders. Unknown
liabilities with respect to properties acquired might include:

      o     liabilities for clean-up or remediation of environmental conditions;

      o     claims of tenants, vendors or other persons dealing with the former
            owners of the properties; and

      o     liabilities incurred in the ordinary course of business.

We would incur adverse tax consequences if we failed to qualify as a REIT.

      If in any taxable year we do not qualify as a real estate investment
trust, we would be taxed as a corporation and distributions to our stockholders
would not be deductible by us in computing our taxable income. In addition, if
we were to fail to qualify as a real estate investment trust, we could be
disqualified from treatment as a real estate investment trust in the year in
which such failure occurred and for the next four taxable years and,
consequently, we would be taxed as a corporation during such years. Failure to
qualify for even one taxable year could result in a significant reduction of our
cash available for distribution to stockholders or could require us to incur
indebtedness or liquidate investments in order to generate sufficient funds to
pay the resulting federal income tax liabilities. The provisions of the Internal
Revenue Code governing the taxation of real estate investment trusts are very
technical and complex, and although we expect that we will be organized and will
operate in a manner that will enable us to meet such requirements, no assurance
can be given that we will always succeed in doing so. In addition, you should
note that if one or more of the REITs we acquired in June 2003 or any of the
Target REITs did not or does not qualify as a real estate investment trust
immediately prior to the consummation of its acquisition, we would be
disqualified as a REIT as a result of such acquisition.

Provisions in our organizational documents may prevent changes in control.

      Our Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws contain provisions, described
below, which may have the effect of discouraging a third party from making an
acquisition proposal for us and may thereby inhibit a change of control under
circumstances that could otherwise give the holders of our common stock the
opportunity to realize a premium over the then-prevailing market prices.

Ownership Limits. In order for us to maintain our qualification as a real estate
investment trust, the holders of our common stock may be limited to owning,
either directly or under applicable attribution rules of the Internal Revenue
Code, no more than 9.8% of the lesser of the value or the number of equity
shares of us, and no holder of common stock may acquire or transfer shares that
would result in our shares of common stock being beneficially owned by fewer
than 100 persons. Such ownership limit may have the effect of preventing an
acquisition of control of us without the approval of our board of directors.
Moreover, we will have the right to redeem any shares of common stock that are
acquired or transferred in violation of these provisions at the market price,


                                       8


which is determined by our board of directors. This right of redemption will no
longer be effective should we list our common stock on the AMEX or any other
national securities exchange or the NASDAQ National Market. In addition, our
Articles of Incorporation give our board of directors the right to refuse to
give effect to the acquisition or transfer of shares by a stockholder in
violation of these provisions.

Staggered Board. Our board of directors is divided into three classes. The terms
of these classes will expire in 2005, 2006 and 2007, respectively. Directors of
each class are elected for a three-year term upon the expiration of the initial
term of each class. The staggered terms for directors may affect our
stockholders' ability to effect a change in control even if a change in control
were in the stockholders' best interests.

Preferred Stock. Our Articles of Incorporation authorize our board of directors
to issue up to 20,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $.0001 per share,
and to establish the preferences and rights of any such shares issued. The
issuance of preferred stock could have the effect of delaying or preventing a
change in control even if a change in control were in our stockholders' best
interest.

Increase of Authorized Stock. Our board of directors, without any vote or
consent of the stockholders, may increase the number of authorized shares of any
class or series of stock or the aggregate number of authorized shares we have
authority to issue. The ability to increase the number of authorized shares and
issue such shares could have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in
control even if a change in control were in our stockholders' best interest.

Amendment of Bylaws. Our board of directors has the sole power to amend our
Bylaws. This power could have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in
control even if a change in control were in our stockholders' best interests.

Stockholder Meetings. Our Bylaws require advance notice for stockholder
proposals to be considered at annual meetings of stockholders and for
stockholder nominations for election of directors at special meetings of
stockholders. Our Bylaws also provide that stockholders entitled to cast more
than 50% of all the votes entitled to be cast at a meeting must join in a
request by stockholders to call a special meeting of stockholders. These
provisions could have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control
even if a change in control were in the best interests of our stockholders.

Supermajority Votes Required. Our Articles of Incorporation require the
affirmative vote of the holders of no less than 80% of the shares of capital
stock outstanding and entitled to vote in order (i) to amend the provisions of
our Articles of Incorporation relating to the classification of directors,
removal of directors, limitation of liability of officers and directors or
indemnification of officers and directors or (ii) to amend our Articles of
Incorporation to impose cumulative voting in the election of directors. These
provisions could have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control
even if a change in control were in our stockholders' best interest.

There is no public trading market for our securities.

      There is no public trading market for our common stock, and we cannot
assure you that any market will develop or that, if such a market develops,
there will be any liquidity in such a market for our common stock. We intend to
apply to list our common stock on the American Stock Exchange, or the AMEX,
under the symbol "FSP." We cannot give any assurances that we will file such
listing application or, in the event we do, that AMEX will accept our listing
application or that a meaningful trading market in our common stock will develop
should AMEX accept our listing application.

The trading price of our common stock following listing on the American Stock
Exchange or another national securities exchange is uncertain. Our common stock
could trade at a lower price than anticipated.


                                       9


      The market prices for our common stock may fluctuate with changes in
market and economic conditions, the financial condition of our securities,
including the market perception of REITs in general. Such fluctuations may
depress the market price of our common stock independent of our financial
performance. The market conditions for REIT stocks generally could affect the
market price of our common stock.

MERGER RISKS

The officers and directors of FSP Corp. have conflicts of interest that may have
influenced them to support or approve the merger agreement.

      A number of conflicts of interest are inherent in the relationships among
the Target REITs, the board of directors of the Target REITs, FSP Corp., our
board of directors and their respective affiliates. These conflicts of interest
include, among others:

      o     George J. Carter, our President, Chief Executive Officer and
            director, is the President and a director of each Target REIT;

      o     Barry Silverstein and Dennis J. McGillicuddy, each a director of FSP
            Corp., own an aggregate of 173 and 14 shares of preferred stock in
            the Target REITs, respectively. Such shares of preferred stock will
            convert into approximately 1,022,217 and approximately 80,837 shares
            of our common stock, respectively, upon consummation of the mergers;

      o     Richard R. Norris, our Executive Vice President and director, is
            also a director and an Executive Vice President of each Target REIT;

      o     Barbara J. Fournier, our Vice President, Chief Operating Officer and
            director, is also Vice President, Chief Operating Officer,
            Treasurer, Secretary and a director of each Target REIT;

      o     Janet P. Notopoulos, our Vice President and director, is also a Vice
            President of each Target REIT;

      o     R. Scott MacPhee and William W. Gribbell, each our Executive Vice
            President, is also each a director and an Executive Vice President
            of each Target REIT; and

      o     The Target REITs' properties are managed by FSP Property Management,
            our subsidiary, pursuant to Management Services Agreements under
            which we receive certain fees for our management services.

      Our officers and directors who are officers and directors of the Target
REITs have fiduciary duties to manage the Target REITs in a manner beneficial to
the stockholders of the Target REITs. Similarly, our directors and officers,
including Mr. Carter, have fiduciary duties to manage FSP Corp. in a manner
beneficial to us and our stockholders. In some circumstances, including the
negotiation of the merger agreement, Mr. Carter's and the other directors' and
officers' duties to the Target REITs and their stockholders and their ownership
of stock in the Target REITs may conflict with their duties, as our directors
and officers, to us and our stockholders. A potential conflict between such
fiduciary duties may not be resolved, or if resolved, may be resolved in a
manner less favorable to us and our stockholders than would otherwise have been
the case if we were dealing with unaffiliated parties.

If the combined company is not able to collect sufficient rents from each of its
owned real properties, the combined company may suffer significant operating
losses.

      A substantial portion of the combined company's revenues will be generated
by the rental income of its real properties. If the additional properties
acquired by us in the mergers or the existing properties owned by us do not
provide the combined company a steady rental income, the combined company's
revenues will decrease and may cause the combined company to incur operating
losses in the future.


                                       10


The mergers may affect the level of dividends received by our stockholders.

      The mergers may affect the level of dividends made to our stockholders by
the combined company. The level of dividends after the consummation of the
mergers may be lower than the level of dividends our stockholders received with
respect to our common stock prior to the mergers due to the dilution of their
percentage ownership our stockholders will incur upon consummation of the
mergers. Each Target REIT expects to declare in the fourth quarter of 2004 and
pay to its stockholders thereafter a dividend with respect to its third quarter
2004 operations. The cash paid out in these dividends will reduce the amount of
cash held by each Target REIT and acquired by us upon consummation of the
mergers. Because the Target REITs have not yet declared these cash dividends, we
cannot estimate the aggregate amount of such dividends. Pursuant to the merger
agreement, we have assumed the obligation to pay any such dividends that have
been declared but not paid prior to the consummation of the mergers. In
addition, we expect to declare in the fourth quarter of 2004 and pay to our
stockholders in the fourth quarter of 2004 dividends in respect of third quarter
2004 operations. The cash available for this dividend and possibly for future
dividends to our stockholders will be reduced by the amount of expenses related
to the mergers paid by us. Regardless of the initial level of the combined
company's dividends, they could decline in the future to a level at which our
stockholders could receive lower dividends than they received prior to the
consummation of the mergers.

Our stockholders will be diluted upon the consummation of the mergers.

      The issuance of approximately 10,894,994 shares of our common stock as
merger consideration will cause our stockholders to be immediately diluted in
percentage ownership. As of August 13, 2004, there were 49,629,762 shares of our
common stock issued and outstanding. Moreover, because the stockholders of the
Target REITs will become stockholders of the combined company immediately
following the mergers, our stockholders will also lose relative voting power
relating to matters of the combined company to be voted on by all security
holders.

The combined company may be liable for contingent or undisclosed liabilities of
the Target REITs.

      Each of the Target REITs has delivered to us its financial statements
disclosing all known material liabilities and reserves, if any, set aside for
contingent liabilities. Each Target REIT has represented and warranted that the
financial statements fairly present the financial position of each Target REIT,
and each Target REIT will be required to deliver on the effective date an
officer's certificate stating that there have been no material adverse changes
in its financial condition between the date of the financial statements and such
effective date. The accuracy and completeness of these representations are
conditions to the consummation of the mergers and if, on or prior to the
effective date, these representations and warranties are known to be inaccurate,
we may elect not to consummate the merger with the Target REIT that failed to
fully and accurately disclose its financial position. As these representations
do not survive the effective date, after the effective date the combined company
will have no recourse against the Target REITs or their stockholders for any
contingent or undisclosed liabilities which first became known after the
effective date. If any contingent or undisclosed liabilities are discovered
after the effective date, the combined company's balance sheet may be adversely
affected, causing the value of our stockholders' interests in the combined
company to decrease.

Following the consummation of the mergers, the combined company may no longer
qualify as a REIT.

      As a result of the combination of FSP Corp. with the Target REITs pursuant
to the mergers, FSP Corp. might no longer qualify as a real estate investment
trust under Section 856 of the Internal Revenue Code. FSP Corp. could lose its
ability to so qualify for a variety of reasons relating to the nature of the
assets acquired from the Target REITs, the identity of the shareholders of the
Target REITs who become shareholders of FSP Corp. or the failure of one or more
of the Target REITs to have previously qualified as a real estate investment
trust. If the combined company fails to qualify as a REIT, the combined company
could be disqualified from treatment as a REIT in the year in which such failure
occurred and for the next four taxable years and, consequently, would be taxed
as a regular corporation during such years.


                                       11


           DETERMINATION OF THE FAIR MARKET VALUE OF OUR COMMON STOCK

      Our common stock is not listed or quoted on any national exchange or other
market. We intend to apply to list our common stock on the AMEX under the symbol
"FSP." We cannot give any assurances that we will file such listing application
or, in the event we do, that AMEX will accept our listing application or that a
meaningful trading market in our common stock will develop should AMEX accept
our listing application. The fair market value of our common stock was
determined through negotiations between FSP Corp. and the special committees of
the Target REITs in connection with the merger transactions discussed under
"Recent Developments". Assuming our common stock does become publicly traded,
the future price per share of our common stock may be lower than the $17.70
price per share negotiated between the special committees of the Target REITs
and FSP Corp.

               SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION

                                 USE OF PROCEEDS

      We are registering 25,000,091 shares of our common stock held by the
persons named herein as "selling stockholders" pursuant to a registration
statement of which this prospectus is a part. FSP Corp. will not receive any of
the proceeds from any future sale of the shares being registered hereby.

      Our common stock is not listed or quoted on any national exchange or
market. We intend to apply to list our common stock on the American Stock
Exchange, or the AMEX, under the symbol "FSP." We cannot give any assurances
that we will file such listing application or, in the event we do, that AMEX
will accept our listing application or that a meaningful trading market in our
common stock will develop should AMEX accept our listing application. The
selling stockholders or their pledgees, donees, transferees or other
successors-in-interest named herein may offer the shares from time to time
through public, in the instance where AMEX accepts our listing application, or
private transactions at prevailing market prices, at prices related to
prevailing market prices or at privately negotiated prices.

                              SELLING STOCKHOLDERS

      The following table sets forth information, to our knowledge, regarding
the beneficial ownership of our common stock by each of the selling stockholders
as of August 13, 2004 and the number of shares of common stock being offered
hereby.

      The number of shares beneficially owned by each selling stockholder is
determined in accordance with the Securities and Exchange Commission rules, and
the information is not necessarily indicative of beneficial ownership for any
other purpose. Under these rules, beneficial ownership includes any shares as to
which the person has sole or shared voting power or investment power and also
any shares which the person has the right to acquire within 60 days after August
13, 2004 through the exercise of any stock option or other right. The inclusion
of such shares in the table below, however, does not constitute an admission
that the named stockholder is a direct or indirect beneficial owner of such
shares. Unless otherwise indicated, to our knowledge each person or entity named
in the table has sole voting power and investment power, or shares such power
with his or her spouse, with respect to all shares of capital stock listed as
owned by such person or entity. None of the selling stockholders has the right
to acquire any shares of our common stock through the exercise of any stock
option or other right.

(1)   We do not know when or in what amounts a selling stockholder may offer
      shares for sale. The selling stockholders may not sell any or all of the
      shares registered hereunder. Because the selling stockholders may offer
      all or some of the shares, and because there are currently no agreements,
      arrangements or understandings with respect to the sale of any of the
      shares, we cannot estimate the number of the shares that will be held by
      the selling stockholders. However, for purposes of this table, we have
      assumed that none of the shares covered by this prospectus will be held by

                              PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

      Our common stock is not listed on a national exchange or other market. We
intend to apply to list our common stock on the American Stock Exchange, or the
AMEX under the symbol "FSP." We expect our listing application will cover an
aggregate of 62,470,934 shares of our common stock, consisting of all of the
shares of our common stock outstanding as of August 20, 2004 (including the
shares covered by this prospectus), 1,946,178 shares of our common stock
issuable under our 2002 Stock Incentive Plan and approximately 10,894,994 shares
of common stock we intend to issue in the transactions described elsewhere under
the heading "Merger Transactions." We cannot give any assurances that we will
file such listing application or, in the event we do, that AMEX will accept our
listing application or that a meaningful trading market in our common stock will
develop should AMEX accept our listing application.

      The shares covered by this prospectus may be offered and sold from time to
time by the selling stockholders. The term "selling stockholders" includes
donees, pledgees, transferees or other successors-in-interest selling shares
received after the date of this prospectus from a selling stockholder as a gift,
pledge, partnership distribution or other non-sale related transfer. The selling
stockholders will act independently of us in making decisions with respect to
the timing, manner and size of each sale. Such sales may be made on one or more
exchanges or in the over-the-counter market or otherwise, at prices and under
terms then prevailing or at prices related to the then current market price or
in negotiated transactions. The selling stockholders may sell their shares by
one or more of, or a combination of, the following methods:

      o     purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by such
            broker-dealer for its own account pursuant to this prospectus;

      o     ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker
            solicits purchasers;

      o     block trades in which the broker-dealer so engaged will attempt to
            sell the shares as agent but may position and resell a portion of
            the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;

      o     an over-the-counter distribution in accordance with the rules of the
            Nasdaq National Market;

      o     in privately negotiated transactions; and

      o     in options transactions.

      In addition, any shares that qualify for sale pursuant to Rule 144 may be
sold under Rule 144 rather than pursuant to this prospectus.

      To the extent required, this prospectus may be amended or supplemented
from time to time to describe a specific plan of distribution. In connection
with distributions of the shares or otherwise, the selling stockholders may
enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial
institutions. In connection with such transactions, broker-dealers or other
financial institutions may engage in short sales of the common stock in the
course of hedging the positions they assume with selling stockholders. The
selling stockholders may also sell the common stock short and redeliver the
shares to close out such short positions. The selling stockholders may also
enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial
institutions which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial
institution of shares offered by this prospectus, which shares such
broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this
prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction). The selling
stockholders may also pledge shares to a broker-dealer or other financial
institution, and, upon a default, such broker-dealer or other financial
institution may effect sales of the pledged shares pursuant to this prospectus
(as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).


                                       45


      In effecting sales, broker-dealers or agents engaged by the selling
stockholders may arrange for other broker-dealers to participate. Broker-dealers
or agents may receive commissions, discounts or concessions from the selling
stockholders in amounts to be negotiated immediately prior to the sale.

      In selling the shares covered by this prospectus, the selling stockholders
and any broker dealers who execute sales for the selling stockholders may be
deemed to be "underwriters" within the meaning of the Securities Act in
connection with such sales. Any profits realized by the selling stockholders and
the compensation of any broker-dealer may be deemed to be underwriting discounts
and commissions.

      In order to comply with the securities laws of certain states, if
applicable, the shares must be sold in such jurisdictions only through
registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in certain states the

            MATERIAL UNITED STATES FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS

      The following is a general summary of the material United States federal
income tax considerations associated with the acquisition, ownership and
disposition of FSP common stock. The following summary is not exhaustive of all
possible tax considerations. Moreover, the summary contained herein does not
address all aspects of taxation that may be relevant to particular stockholders
in light of their personal tax circumstances, or to certain types of
stockholders subject to special treatment under federal income tax laws,
including insurance companies, tax-exempt organizations (except to the extent
discussed below under the heading "Taxation of Tax-Exempt Shareholders"),
financial institutions, broker-dealers, and foreign corporations and persons who
are not citizens or residents of the United States (except to the extent
discussed below under the heading "Taxation of Non-U.S. Shareholders").

      We have elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust under the
tax code. Generally, companies that meet the eligibility requirements for
treatment as a real estate investment trust and that elect to be so treated are
not subject to federal income tax on the income they distribute to their
stockholders. We believe that we are organized and have operated in a manner so
as to meet these eligibility requirements. In addition, our counsel, Wilmer
Cutler Pickering Hale and Dorr LLP, has rendered its opinion, based upon various
assumptions specified therein and upon our representations, that we have been
organized and operated in conformity with the requirements for qualification as
a real estate investment trust for the taxable year ending December 31, 2004 and
that our current organization and method of operation (as described in this
prospectus) will enable us to continue to meet the requirements for
qualification and taxation as a real estate investment trust. Qualification as a
REIT, however, depends upon our ability to meet, through actual annual (or in
some cases quarterly) operating results, requirements (discussed in greater


                                       46


detail below) relating to, among other things, the sources of our income, the
nature of our assets, the level of our distributions and the diversity of our
share ownership. Wilmer Cutler Pickering Hale and Dorr LLP has not reviewed and
will not review these results on an independent basis. Given the complex nature
of the REIT qualification requirements, the ongoing importance of factual
determinations and the possibility of future changes in our circumstances, there
can be no assurance that our actual operating results will satisfy the
requirements for taxation as a REIT under the tax code for any particular
taxable year.

      The statements in this summary are, and the opinion of Wilmer Cutler
Pickering Hale and Dorr LLP will be, based on the provisions of the Internal
Revenue Code, or the tax code, applicable United States Treasury regulations
promulgated thereunder, and judicial and administrative decisions and rulings
all as in effect on the date rendered. Neither the statements below nor the
opinion is binding on the Internal Revenue Service or the courts, and there can
be no assurance that the Internal Revenue Service or the courts will not take a
contrary view. No ruling from the Internal Revenue Service has been or will be
sought. Future legislative, judicial or administrative changes or
interpretations could alter or modify the statements and conclusions set forth
herein, possibly adversely.

      EACH STOCKHOLDER IS URGED TO CONSULT HIS, HER, OR ITS OWN TAX ADVISOR
REGARDING THE SPECIFIC TAX CONSEQUENCES TO THE STOCKHOLDER OF THE Acquisition,
OWNERSHIP AND Disposition OF STOCK IN AN ENTITY ELECTING TO BE TAXED AS A REAL
ESTATE INVESTMENT TRUST, INCLUDING FEDERAL, STATE, LOCAL, FOREIGN AND OTHER TAX
CONSEQUENCES, AS WELL AS POTENTIAL CHANGES IN THE APPLICABLE TAX LAWS.

Certain Tax Risks Relating to the Mergers

      On August 13, 2004, FSP Corp., four wholly-owned acquisition subsidiaries
and four Target REITs entered into a merger agreement whereby the individual
wholly-owned acquisition subsidiaries of FSP Corp. will acquire a Target REIT by
merger. The merger agreement provides that upon consummation of the mergers,
each share of preferred stock in the Target REITs will be converted into a
certain number of shares of FSP Corp. common stock.

      The mergers entail certain tax risks which, if realized, could cause FSP
Corp. and the Target REITs (following the mergers, together referred to as the
combined company) to fail to qualify as a REIT in the year of the mergers or in
any subsequent year, or may result in substantial additional taxes being imposed
upon the combined company. As a result of the mergers, for example:

      o     The combined company may, directly or indirectly, improperly own 10%
            or more of a tenant from which the combined company collects rent,
            causing the rent received from such tenant to fail to qualify as
            rents from real property, as described below under "Requirements for
            Taxation as a Real Estate Investment Trust - Income Tests".

      o     The combined company may improperly own (i) more than 10% of the
            outstanding voting securities of any issuer, or (ii) more than 10%
            of the value of the securities of any issuer, causing the combined
            company to fail to satisfy the asset tests, as described below under
            "Requirements for Taxation as a Real Estate Investment Trust - Asset
            Tests".

      o     The combined company would be disqualified as a REIT if any of the
            Target REITs did not qualify as a REIT and, as a result, had any
            undistributed "earnings and profits" at the time of the mergers.

      If the combined company fails to qualify as a REIT, the combined company
could be disqualified from treatment as a REIT in the year in which such failure
occurred and for the next four taxable years and, consequently, would be taxed
as a regular corporation during such years. Other tax costs that could result if


                                       47


one or more of the mergers caused the combined company to acquire impermissible
assets or income are described below under "Taxation of the combined company -
General."

Tax Consequences of REIT Election

      Introduction. FSP Corp. has elected under Section 856 of the tax code to
be taxed as a real estate investment trust. Following the mergers, subject to
the risks described above, the combined company intends to continue to be taxed
as a REIT.

Taxation of the combined company

      General. If the combined company continues to qualify as a real estate
investment trust, it generally will not be subject to federal corporate income
taxes on its net income to the extent that the income is currently distributed
to its shareholders. The benefit of this tax treatment is that it substantially
eliminates the "double taxation" resulting from the taxation at both the
corporate and shareholder levels that generally results from owning stock in a
corporation. Accordingly, income generated by the combined company generally
will be subject to taxation solely at the shareholder level upon a distribution
from the combined company. The combined company will, however, be required to
pay certain federal income taxes, including in the following circumstances:

      o     The combined company will be subject to federal income tax at
            regular corporate rates on taxable income, including net capital
            gain, that the combined company does not distribute to shareholders
            during, or within a specified time period after, the calendar year
            in which such income is earned.

      o     The combined company will be subject to the "alternative minimum
            tax" with respect to its undistributed alternative minimum taxable
            income.

      o     The combined company will be subject to a 100% tax on net income
            from certain sales or other dispositions of property that it holds
            primarily for sale to customers in the ordinary course of business,
            also known as "prohibited transactions".

      o     If the combined company fails to satisfy the 75% gross income test
            or the 95% gross income test, both described below, but nevertheless
            qualifies as a real estate investment trust, the combined company
            will be subject to a 100% tax on an amount equal to (i) the gross
            income attributable to the greater of the amount by which the
            combined company fails the 75% or 95% gross income test multiplied
            by (ii) a fraction intended to reflect the combined company's
            profitability.

      o     If the combined company fails to distribute during the calendar year
            at least the sum of (i) 85% of its real estate investment trust
            ordinary income for such year, (ii) 95% of its real estate
            investment trust capital gain net income for such year, and (iii)
            any undistributed taxable income from prior periods, the combined
            company will pay a 4% excise tax on the excess of such required
            distribution over the amount actually distributed to its
            shareholders.

      o     The combined company may elect to retain and pay income tax on some
            or all of its long-term capital gain, as described below.

      o     The combined company may be subject to a 100% excise tax on
            transactions with any of its taxable REIT subsidiaries that are not
            conducted on an arm's-length basis.


                                       48


Requirements for Qualification as a Real Estate Investment Trust

      Introduction. In order to qualify as a real estate investment trust for
federal income tax purposes a REIT must elect (or have elected, and have not
revoked its election) to be treated as a REIT and must satisfy certain statutory
tests relating to, among other things, (i) the sources of its income, (ii) the
nature of its assets, (iii) the amount of its distributions, and (iv) the
ownership of its stock. FSP Corp. has elected to be treated as a REIT and has
endeavored, and the combined company will endeavor, to satisfy the tests for
REIT qualification.

      A real estate investment trust may own a "qualified REIT subsidiary." A
qualified REIT subsidiary is a corporation, all of the capital stock of which is
owned by a real estate investment trust, and for which subsidiary no election
has been made to treat it as a "taxable REIT subsidiary" (as discussed below). A
corporation that is a qualified REIT subsidiary is not treated as a corporation
separate from its parent real estate investment trust for federal income tax
purposes. All assets, liabilities, and items of income, deduction, and credit of
a qualified REIT subsidiary are treated as the assets, liabilities, and items of
income, deduction and credit of the parent real estate investment trust. Thus,
in applying the requirements described herein, any qualified REIT subsidiary of
the combined company will be ignored, and all assets, liabilities and items of
income, deduction and credit of such subsidiary will be treated as the assets,
liabilities, and items of income deduction and credit of the combined company.

      In the event that the combined company becomes a partner in a partnership,
the combined company will be deemed to own its proportionate share (based upon
its share of the capital of the partnership) of the assets of the partnership
and will be deemed to be entitled to the income of the partnership attributable
to such share. In addition, the assets and income of the partnership so
attributed to the combined company will retain their same character as in the
hands of the partnership for purposes of determining whether the combined
company satisfies the income and asset tests described below.

      A real estate investment trust may own up to 100% of the stock of one or
more taxable REIT subsidiaries. A taxable REIT subsidiary may earn income that
would not be qualifying income, as described below, if earned directly by the
parent real estate investment trust. Both the subsidiary and the parent real
estate investment trust must jointly elect to treat the subsidiary as a taxable
REIT subsidiary. Overall, not more than 20% of the value of a REIT's assets may
consist of securities of one or more taxable REIT subsidiaries. A taxable REIT
subsidiary will pay tax at regular corporate rates on any income that it earns.
There is a 100% excise tax imposed on certain transactions involving a taxable
REIT subsidiary and its parent real estate investment trust that are not
conducted on an arm's-length basis. An election has been made to treat FSP
Investments as a taxable REIT subsidiary. FSP Investments pays corporate income
tax on its taxable income and its after-tax net income will be available for
distribution to the combined company, generally as a dividend.

      Income Tests - General. The combined company must satisfy annually two
tests regarding the sources of its gross income in order to maintain its real
estate investment trust status. First, at least 75% of the combined company's
gross income, excluding gross income from certain "dealer" sales, for each
taxable year generally must consist of defined types of income that the combined
company derives, directly or indirectly, from investments relating to real
property or mortgages on real property or temporary investment income, also
known as the "75% gross income test". Qualifying income for purposes of the 75%
gross income test generally includes:

      o     "rents from real property" (as described below);

      o     interest from debt secured by mortgages on real property or on
            interests in real property;

      o     dividends or other distributions on, and gain from the sale of,
            shares in other real estate investment trusts;

      o     gain from the sale or other disposition of real property or
            mortgages on real property;


                                       49


      o     amounts (other than amounts the determination of which depends in
            whole or in part on the income or profits of any person) received as
            consideration for entering into agreements to make loans secured by
            mortgages on real property or on interests in real property or
            agreements to purchase or lease real property; and

      o     certain investment income attributable to temporary investment of
            capital raised by the combined company.

      Second, at least 95% of the combined company's gross income, excluding
gross income from certain "dealer" sales, for each taxable year generally must
consist of income that is qualifying income for purposes of the 75% gross income
test, as well as dividends, other types of interest, and gain from the sale or
disposition of stock or securities, also known as the "95% gross income test".

      Income Tests - Rents from Real Property. Rent that the combined company
receives from real property that it owns and leases to tenants will qualify as
"rents from real property" if the following conditions are satisfied:

      o     First, the rent must not be based, in whole or in part, on the
            income or profits of any person. An amount will not fail to qualify
            as rent from real property solely by reason of its being based on a
            fixed percentage (or percentages) of sales or receipts.

      o     Second, neither the combined company nor any direct or indirect
            owner of 10% or more of its stock may own, actually or
            constructively, 10% (by vote or value) or more of the tenant from
            which the combined company collects the rent.

      o     Third, all of the rent received under a lease will not qualify as
            rents from real property unless the rent attributable to the
            personal property leased in connection with the real property
            constitutes no more than 15% of the total rent received under the
            lease.

      o     Finally, the combined company generally must not operate or manage
            its real property or furnish or render services to its tenants,
            other than through an "independent contractor" who is adequately
            compensated and from whom the combined company does not derive
            revenue. The combined company may provide services directly,
            however, if the services are "usually or customarily rendered" in
            connection with the rental of space for occupancy only and are not
            otherwise considered rendered "primarily for the occupant's
            convenience." In addition, the combined company may render, other
            than through an independent contractor, a de minimis amount of
            "non-customary" services to the tenants of a property as long as the
            combined company's income from such services does not exceed 1% of
            its gross income from the property.

      Although no assurances can be given that either of the gross income tests
will be satisfied in any given year, the combined company anticipates that its
operations will allow it to meet each of the 75% gross income test and the 95%
gross income test. Such belief is premised in large part on the combined
company's expectation that substantially all of the amounts received by the
company with respect to its properties will qualify as "rents from real
property." Shareholders should be aware, however, that there are a variety of
circumstances, as described above, in which rent received from a tenant will not
be treated as rents from real property.

      Income Tests - Failure to Satisfy Gross Income Tests. If the combined
company fails to satisfy either or both of the 75% or 95% gross income tests for
any taxable year, the combined company may nevertheless qualify as a real estate
investment trust for that year if it is eligible for relief under certain
provisions of the federal income tax laws. Those relief provisions generally
will be available if:


                                       50


      o     the combined company's failure to meet the gross income test was due
            to reasonable cause and not due to willful neglect;

      o     the combined company attaches a schedule of the sources of its
            income to its federal income tax return; and

      o     any incorrect information on the schedule is not due to fraud with
            intent to evade tax.

      It is not possible to state whether the combined company would be entitled
to the benefit of the above relief provisions in a particular circumstance that
might arise in the future. Furthermore, as discussed above under "Taxation of
the combined company - General," even if the relief provisions apply, the
combined company would incur a 100% tax on the gross income attributable to the
greater of the amounts by which it fails the 75% and 95% gross income tests,
multiplied by a fraction that reflects the combined company's profitability.

      Asset Tests. The combined company also must satisfy the following four
tests relating to the nature of its assets at the close of each quarter of its
taxable year.

      o     First, at least 75% of the value of the combined company's total
            assets must consist of cash or cash items (including receivables),
            government securities, "real estate assets," or qualifying temporary
            investments, also known as the "75% asset test";

      o     Second, no more than 25% of the value of the combined company's
            total assets may be represented by securities other than those that
            are qualifying assets for purposes of the 75% asset test or of
            certain entities that qualify as taxable REIT subsidiaries, also
            known as the "25% asset test";

      o     Third, of the investments included in the 25% asset test, the value
            of any one issuer's securities that the combined company owns may
            not exceed 5% of the value of the combined company's total assets,
            and the combined company may not own 10% or more of the total
            combined voting power or 10% or more of the total value of the
            securities of any issuer, unless such issuer and the combined
            company make an election to treat the issuer as a taxable REIT
            subsidiary or the issuer is a "disregarded entity" for federal
            income tax purposes or is itself a REIT; and

      o     Fourth, while the combined company may own up to 100% of the stock
            of a corporation that elects to be treated as a taxable REIT
            subsidiary for federal income tax purposes, the total value of the
            combined company's stock ownership in one or more taxable REIT
            subsidiaries may not exceed 20% of the value of the combined
            company's gross assets.

      The combined company intends to operate so that it will not acquire any
assets that would cause it to violate any of the asset tests. If, however, the
combined company should fail to satisfy any of the asset tests at the end of a
calendar quarter, it would not lose its real estate investment trust status if
(i) the combined company satisfied the asset tests at the end of the close of
the preceding calendar quarter, and (ii) the discrepancy between the value of
the combined company's assets and the asset test requirements arose from changes
in the market values of the combined company's assets and was not wholly or
partly caused by the acquisition of one or more nonqualifying assets. If the
combined company did not satisfy the condition described in clause (ii) of the
preceding sentence, it could still avoid disqualification as a real estate
investment trust by eliminating any discrepancy within 30 days after the close
of the calendar quarter in which the discrepancy arose.

      Distribution Requirements. Each taxable year, the combined company must
distribute dividends to its shareholders in an amount at least equal to:


                                       51


      o     90% of the combined company's "real estate investment trust taxable
            income," computed without regard to the dividends paid deduction and
            the combined company's net capital gain or loss; and

      o     certain items of noncash income.

      The combined company must make such distributions in the taxable year to
which they relate, or in the following taxable year if the combined company
declares the distribution before it timely files its federal income tax return
for such year and pays the distribution on or before the first regular
distribution date after such declaration. Further, if the combined company fails
to meet the 90% distribution requirement as a result of an adjustment to its tax
returns by the Internal Revenue Service, the combined company may, if the
deficiency is not due to fraud with intent to evade tax or a willful failure to
file a timely tax return, and if certain other conditions are met, retroactively
cure the failure by paying a deficiency dividend (plus interest) to its
shareholders.

      The combined company will be subject to federal income tax on its taxable
income, including net capital gain that it does not distribute to its
shareholders. Furthermore, if the combined company fails to distribute during a
calendar year, or, in the case of distributions with declaration and record
dates falling within the last three months of the calendar year, by the end of
the January following such calendar year, at least the sum of:

      o     85% of the combined company's real estate investment trust ordinary
            income for such year;

      o     95% of the combined company's real estate investment trust capital
            gain income for such year; and

      o     any of the combined company's undistributed taxable income from
            prior periods,

the combined company will be subject to a 4% nondeductible excise tax on the
excess of such required distribution over the amount actually distributed. If
the combined company elects to retain and pay income tax on the net capital gain
that it receives in a taxable year, the combined company will be deemed to have
distributed any such amount for the purposes of the 4% excise tax described in
the preceding sentence.

      The combined company intends to make distributions to holders of FSP
common stock in a manner that will allow it to satisfy the distribution
requirements described above. It is possible that, from time to time, the
combined company's pre-distribution taxable income may exceed its cash flow and
that the combined company may have difficulty satisfying the distribution
requirements. The combined company intends to monitor closely the relationship
between its pre-distribution taxable income and its cash flow and intends to
borrow funds or liquidate assets in order to overcome any cash flow shortfalls
if necessary to satisfy the distribution requirements imposed by the tax code.
It is possible, although unlikely, that the combined company may decide to
terminate its real estate investment trust status as a result of any such cash
shortfall. Such a termination would have adverse tax consequences to the
combined company's stockholders. See "Taxation of the combined company -
General".

      Recordkeeping Requirements. The combined company must maintain records of
information specified in applicable Treasury Regulations in order to maintain
its qualification as a real estate investment trust. In addition, in order to
avoid monetary penalties, the combined company must request on an annual basis
certain information from its shareholders designed to disclose the actual
ownership of the combined company's outstanding stock. The combined company
intends to comply with these recordkeeping requirements.

      Ownership Requirements. For the combined company to qualify as a real
estate investment trust, shares of the combined company must be held by a
minimum of 100 persons for at least 335 days in each taxable year. Further, at
no time during the second half of any taxable year may more than 50% of the


                                       52


combined company's shares be owned, actually or constructively, by five or fewer
"individuals" (which term is defined for this purpose to include certain
tax-exempt entities including pension trusts). The FSP Corp. common stock will
be held by 100 or more persons. The combined company intends to continue to
comply with these ownership requirements. Also, the combined company's charter
contains ownership and transfer restrictions designed to prevent violation of
these requirements.

      Failure to Qualify. If the combined company failed to qualify as a real
estate investment trust in any taxable year, and no relief provisions applied,
the combined company would be subject to federal income tax, including any
applicable alternative minimum tax, on its taxable income at regular corporate
rates. In calculating the combined company's taxable income in a year in which
it did not qualify as a real estate investment trust, the combined company would
not be able to deduct amounts paid out to its shareholders. The combined company
would not be required to distribute any amounts to its shareholders in such
taxable year. In such event, to the extent of the combined company's current and
accumulated earnings and profits, all distributions to shareholders would be
characterized as dividends and would be taxable as ordinary income.
Non-corporate shareholders, however, could qualify for a lower maximum tax rate
on such dividends in most circumstances. Moreover, subject to certain
limitations under the tax code, corporate shareholders might be eligible for the
dividends received deduction. Unless the combined company qualified for relief
under specific statutory provisions, the combined company would be disqualified
from taxation as a real estate investment trust for the four taxable years
following the year in which it ceased to qualify as a real estate investment
trust. The combined company cannot predict whether it would qualify for such
statutory relief in a particular circumstance that might arise in the future.

Taxation of Taxable U.S. Shareholders

      As used herein, the term "taxable U.S. shareholder" means a shareholder
that, for United States federal income tax purposes, is:

      o     a citizen or resident of the United States;

      o     a corporation, partnership, or other entity created or organized in
            or under the laws of the United States or any state or political
            subdivision thereof;

      o     an estate the income of which is includible in gross income for
            United States federal income tax purposes regardless of such
            estate's connection with the conduct of a trade or business within
            the United States; or

      o     any trust with respect to which (i) a United States court is able to
            exercise primary supervision over the administration of such trust,
            and (ii) one or more United States persons have the authority to
            control all substantial decisions of the trust.

      For any taxable year in which the combined company qualifies as a real
estate investment trust, amounts distributed to taxable U.S. shareholders will
be taxed as follows.

      Distributions Generally. Distributions made to the combined company's
taxable U.S. shareholders out of current or accumulated earnings and profits
(and not designated as a capital gain dividend) will be taken into account by
such shareholder as ordinary income and will not, in the case of a corporate
taxable U.S. shareholder, be eligible for the dividends received deduction. In
addition, such dividends will not qualify for the lower maximum tax rate
applicable to dividends received by non-corporate taxpayers except to the extent
that they were attributable to income previously taxed to the combined company.
To the extent that the combined company makes a distribution with respect to the
FSP common stock that is in excess of its current or accumulated earnings and
profits, the distribution will be treated by a taxable U.S. shareholder first as
a tax-free return of capital, reducing the taxable U.S. shareholder's tax basis
in the FSP common stock, and any portion of the distribution in excess of the
shareholder's tax basis in the FSP common stock will then be treated as gain
from the sale of such stock. Dividends declared by the combined company in


                                       53


October, November, or December of any year payable to a taxable U.S. shareholder
of record on a specified date in any such month shall be treated as both paid by
the combined company and received by shareholders on December 31 of such year,
provided that the dividend is actually paid by the combined company during
January of the following calendar year. Taxable U.S. shareholders may not
include on their federal income tax returns any of the combined company's tax
losses.

      Capital Gain Dividends. Dividends to taxable U.S. shareholders that
properly are designated by the combined company as capital gain dividends will
be treated by such shareholders as long-term capital gain, to the extent that
such dividends do not exceed the combined company's actual net capital gain,
without regard to the period for which the taxable U.S. shareholders have held
the FSP common stock. Taxable U.S. shareholders that are corporations may be
required, however, to treat up to 20% of particular capital gain dividends as
ordinary income. Capital gain dividends, like regular dividends from a real
estate investment trust, are not eligible for the dividends received deduction
for corporations.

      For taxable U.S. shareholders who are taxable at the rates applicable to
individuals, the combined company will classify portions of any capital gain
dividend as either (i) a "regular" capital gain dividend taxable to the taxable
U.S. shareholder at a maximum rate of 15% or (ii) an "unrecaptured Section 1250
gain" dividend taxable to the taxable U.S. shareholder at a maximum rate of 25%.

      Retained Capital Gains. The combined company may elect to retain, rather
than distribute, its net long-term capital gain received during the tax year. If
the combined company so elects, it will be required to pay tax on the retained
amounts. To the extent designated in a notice to the taxable U.S. shareholders,
the taxable U.S. shareholders will be required to include their proportionate
shares of the undistributed net long-term capital gain so designated in their
income for the tax year, but will be permitted a credit or refund, as the case
may be, for their respective shares of any tax paid on such gains by the
Company. In addition, each taxable U.S. shareholder will be entitled to increase
the tax basis in his or her shares of FSP common stock by an amount equal to the
amount of net long-term capital gain the taxable U.S. shareholder was required
to include in income, reduced by the amount of any tax paid by the combined
company for which the taxable U.S. shareholder was entitled to receive a credit
or refund.

      Passive Activity Loss and Investment Interest Limitations. Distributions,
including deemed distributions of undistributed net long-term capital gain, from
the combined company and gain from the disposition of FSP common stock will not
be treated as passive activity income, and therefore taxable U.S. shareholders
will not be able to apply any passive activity losses against such income.
Distributions from the combined company, to the extent they do not constitute a
return of capital, generally will be treated as investment income for purposes
of the investment income limitation on deductibility of investment interest.
However, dividends attributable to income that was subject to tax at the
combined company level as well as net capital gain from the disposition of FSP
common stock or capital gain dividends, including deemed distributions of
undistributed net long-term capital gains, generally will be excluded from
investment income.

      Sale of FSP Common Stock. Upon the sale of FSP common stock, a taxable
U.S. shareholder generally will recognize gain or loss equal to the difference
between the amount realized on such sale and the holder's tax basis in the stock
sold. To the extent that the FSP common stock is held as a capital asset by the
taxable U.S. shareholder, the gain or loss will be a long-term capital gain or
loss if the stock has been held for more than a year, and will be a short-term
capital gain or loss if the stock has been held for a shorter period. In
general, however, any loss upon a sale of the FSP common stock by a taxable U.S.
shareholder who has held such stock for six months or less (after applying
certain holding period rules) will be treated as a long-term capital loss to the
extent that distributions from the combined company were required to be treated
as long-term capital gain by that holder.


                                       54


Taxation of Tax-Exempt Shareholders

      Tax-exempt entities, including qualified employee pension and profit
sharing trusts and individual retirement accounts, collectively known as "exempt
organizations", generally are exempt from federal income taxation. Exempt
organizations are subject to tax, however, on their unrelated business taxable
income, or "UBTI". UBTI is defined as the gross income derived by an exempt
organization from an unrelated trade or business, less the deductions directly
connected with that trade or business, subject to certain exceptions. While many
investments in real estate generate UBTI, the Internal Revenue Service has
issued a ruling that dividend distributions from a real estate investment trust
to an exempt employee pension trust do not constitute UBTI, provided that the
shares of the real estate investment trust are not otherwise used in an
unrelated trade or business of the exempt employee pension trust. Based on that
ruling, amounts distributed to exempt organizations generally should not
constitute UBTI. However, if an exempt organization finances its acquisition of
FSP common stock with debt, a portion of its income from the combined company
will constitute UBTI pursuant to the "debt-financed property" rules.

      In addition, in certain circumstances, a pension trust that owns more than
10% of the stock of the combined company will be required to treat a percentage
of the dividends paid by the combined company as UBTI based upon the percentage
of the combined company's income that would constitute UBTI to the shareholder
if received directly by it. This rule applies to a pension trust holding more
than 10% (by value) of the FSP common stock only if (i) the percentage of the
income from the combined company that is UBTI (determined as if the combined
company were a pension trust) is at least 5% and (ii) the combined company is
treated as a "pension-held REIT." The combined company does not expect to
receive significant amounts of income that would be considered UBTI if received
directly by a pension trust and does not expect to qualify as a "pension-held
REIT."

Taxation of Non-U.S. Shareholders

      General. The rules governing United States federal income taxation of
nonresident alien individuals, foreign corporations, foreign partnerships,
foreign trusts and certain other foreign stockholders, collectively known as
"non-U.S. shareholders", are complex and no attempt is made herein to provide
more than a general summary of such rules. This discussion does not consider the
tax rules applicable to all non-U.S. shareholders and, in particular, does not
consider the special rules applicable to U.S. branches of foreign banks or
insurance companies or certain intermediaries. NON-U.S. SHAREHOLDERS SHOULD
CONSULT WITH THEIR OWN TAX ADVISORS TO DETERMINE THE IMPACT OF FEDERAL, STATE,
LOCAL AND FOREIGN TAX LAWS WITH REGARD TO THE MERGERS AND THE ACQUISITION,
OWNERSHIP and Disposition OF FSP COMMON STOCK, INCLUDING ANY REPORTING AND
WITHHOLDING REQUIREMENTS.

      Ordinary Dividends - General. Distributions to non-U.S. shareholders that
are not attributable to gain from sales or exchanges by the combined company of
United States real property interests and are not designated by the combined
company as capital gain dividends (or deemed distributions of retained capital
gains) will be treated as ordinary dividends to the extent that they are made
out of current or accumulated earnings and profits of the combined company. Any
portion of a distribution in excess of current and accumulated earnings and
profits of the combined company will not be taxable to a non-U.S. shareholder to
the extent that such distribution does not exceed the adjusted basis of the
shareholder in the FSP common stock, but rather will reduce the adjusted basis
of such stock. To the extent that the portion of the distribution in excess of
current and accumulated earnings and profits exceeds the adjusted basis of a
non-U.S. shareholder for the FSP common stock, such excess generally will be
treated as gain from the sale or disposition of the stock and will be taxed as
described below.

      Ordinary Dividends - Withholding. Dividends paid to non-U.S. shareholders
may be subject to U.S. withholding tax. If an income tax treaty does not apply
and the non-U.S. shareholder's investment in the FSP common stock is not
effectively connected with a trade or business conducted by the non-U.S.
shareholder in the United States (or if a tax treaty does apply and the
investment in the FSP common stock is not attributable to a United States
permanent establishment maintained by the non-U.S. shareholder), ordinary
dividends (i.e., distributions out of current and accumulated earnings and
profits) will be subject to a U.S. withholding tax at a 30% rate, or, if an
income tax treaty applies, at a lower treaty rate. Because the combined company


                                       55


generally cannot determine at the time that a distribution is made whether or
not such a distribution will be in excess of earnings and profits, the combined
company intends to withhold on the gross amount of each distribution at the 30%
rate (or lower treaty rate) (other than distributions subject to the 35% FIRPTA
withholding rules described below). To receive a reduced treaty rate, a non-U.S.
shareholder must furnish the combined company or its paying agent with a duly
completed Form W-8BEN (or authorized substitute form) certifying such holder's
qualification for the reduced rate. Generally, a non-U.S. shareholder will be
entitled to a refund from the Internal Revenue Service to the extent the amount
withheld by the combined company from a distribution exceeds the amount of
United States tax owed by such shareholder.

      In the case of a non-U.S. shareholder that is a partnership or a trust,
the withholding rules for a distribution to such a partnership or trust will be
dependent on numerous factors, including (i) the classification of the type of
partnership or trust, (ii) the status of the partner or beneficiary, and (iii)
the activities of the partnership or trust. Non-U.S. shareholders that are
partnerships or trusts are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding the
withholding rules applicable to them based on their particular circumstances.

      If an income tax treaty does not apply, ordinary dividends that are
effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business within the U.S. by
a non-U.S. shareholder (and, if a tax treaty applies, ordinary dividends that
are attributable to a United States permanent establishment maintained by the
non-U.S. shareholder) are exempt from U.S. withholding tax. In order to claim
such exemption, a non-U.S. shareholder must provide the combined company or its
paying agent with a duly completed Form 4224 or FormW-8ECI (or authorized
substitute form) certifying such holder's exemption. However, ordinary dividends
exempt from U.S. withholding tax because they are effectively connected or are
attributable to a United States permanent establishment maintained by the
non-U.S. shareholder generally are subject to U.S. federal income tax on a net
income basis at regular graduated rates. In the case of non-U.S. shareholders
that are corporations, any effectively connected ordinary dividends or ordinary
dividends attributable to a United States permanent establishment maintained by
the non-U.S. shareholder may, in certain circumstances, be subject to branch
profits tax at a 30% rate, or at such lower rate as may be provided in an
applicable income tax treaty.

      Capital Gain Dividends - General. For any year in which the combined
company qualifies as a real estate investment trust, distributions that are
attributable to gain from sales or exchanges by the combined company of United
States real property interests will be taxed to a non-U.S. shareholder under the
provisions of the Foreign Investment in Real Property Tax Act of 1980, also
known as "FIRPTA". Under FIRPTA, distributions attributable to gain from sales
of United States real property are taxed to a non-U.S. shareholder as if such
gain were effectively connected with a United States trade or business. Non-U.S.
shareholders thus would be taxed at the regular capital gain rates applicable to
taxable U.S. shareholders (subject to the applicable alternative minimum tax and
a special alternative minimum tax in the case of nonresident alien individuals).
Distributions subject to FIRPTA also may be subject to a 30% branch profits tax
in the hands of a corporate non-U.S. shareholder not otherwise entitled to
treaty relief or exemption.

      Capital Gain Dividends - Withholding. Under FIRPTA, the combined company
is required to withhold 35% of any distribution that is designated as a capital
gain dividend or which could be designated as a capital gain dividend. Moreover,
if the combined company designates previously made distributions as capital gain
dividends, subsequent distributions (up to the amount of the prior distributions
so designated) will be treated as capital gain dividends for purposes of FIRPTA
withholding.

      Sale of FSP Common Stock. A non-U.S shareholder generally will not be
subject to United States federal income tax under FIRPTA with respect to gain
recognized upon a sale of FSP common stock, provided that the combined company
is a "domestically-controlled REIT." A domestically-controlled REIT generally is
defined as a real estate investment trust in which at all times during a
specified testing period less than 50% in value of the stock was held directly
or indirectly by non-U.S. persons. Although currently it is anticipated that the
combined company will be a domestically-controlled REIT, and, therefore, that


                                       56


the sale of FSP common stock will not be subject to taxation under FIRPTA, there
can be no assurance that the combined company will, at all relevant times, be a
domestically-controlled REIT. If the gain on the sale of FSP common stock were
subject to taxation under FIRPTA, a non-U.S. shareholder would be subject to the
same treatment as taxable U.S. shareholders with respect to such gain (subject
to the applicable alternative minimum tax and a special alternative minimum tax
in the case of nonresident alien individuals). In addition, a purchaser of FSP
common stock from a non-U.S. shareholder subject to taxation under FIRPTA
generally would be required to deduct and withhold a tax equal to 10% of the
amount realized by a non-U.S. shareholder on the disposition. Any amount
withheld would be creditable against the non-U.S. shareholder's FIRPTA tax
liability.

      Even if gain recognized by a non-U.S. shareholder upon the sale of FSP
common stock is not subject to FIRPTA, such gain generally will subject such
shareholder to U.S. tax if:

      o     an income tax treaty does not apply and the gain is effectively
            connected with a trade or business conducted by the non-U.S.
            shareholder in the United States (or, if an income tax treaty
            applies and the gain is attributable to a United States permanent
            establishment maintained by the non-U.S. shareholder), in which
            case, unless an applicable treaty provides otherwise, a non-U.S.
            shareholder will be taxed on his or her net gain from the sale at
            regular graduated U.S. federal income tax rates. In the case of a
            non-U.S. shareholder that is a corporation, such shareholder may be
            subject to a branch profits tax at a 30% rate, unless an applicable
            income tax treaty provides for a lower rate and the shareholder
            demonstrates its qualification for such rate; or

      o     the non-U.S. shareholder is a nonresident alien individual who holds
            the FSP common stock as a capital asset and was present in the
            United States for 183 days or more during the taxable year (as
            determined under the tax code) and certain other conditions apply,
            in which case the non-U.S. shareholder will be subject to a 30% tax
            on capital gains.

      Estate Tax Considerations. The value of FSP common stock owned, or treated
as owned, by a non-U.S. shareholder who is a nonresident alien individual at the
time of his or her death will be included in the individual's gross estate for
United States federal estate tax purposes, unless otherwise provided in an
applicable estate tax treaty.

Information Reporting and Backup Withholding

      The combined company is required to report to its shareholders and to the
Internal Revenue Service the amount of distributions paid during each tax year,
and the amount of tax withheld, if any. These requirements apply even if
withholding was not required with respect to payments made to a shareholder. In
the case of non-U.S. shareholders, the information reported may also be made
available to the tax authorities of the non-U.S. shareholder's country of
residence, if an applicable income tax treaty so provides.

      Backup withholding generally may be imposed on certain payments to a
shareholder unless the shareholder (i) furnishes certain information, or (ii) is
otherwise exempt from backup withholding.

      A shareholder who does not provide the combined company with his or her
correct taxpayer identification number also may be subject to penalties imposed
by the Internal Revenue Service. In addition, the combined company may be
required to withhold a portion of capital gain distributions to any shareholders
who fail to certify their non-foreign status to the combined company.

      Shareholders should consult their own tax advisors regarding their
qualification for an exemption from backup withholding and the procedure for
obtaining an exemption. Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Rather, the
amount of any backup withholding with respect to a distribution to a shareholder
will be allowed as a credit against such holder's United States federal income
tax liability and may entitle the shareholder to a refund, provided that the
required information is furnished to the Internal Revenue Service.


                                       57


      In general, backup withholding and information reporting will not apply to
a payment of the proceeds of the sale of FSP common stock by a non-U.S.
shareholder by or through a foreign office of a foreign broker effected outside
of the United States; provided, however, that foreign brokers having certain
connections with the United States may be obligated to comply with the backup
withholding and information reporting rules. Information reporting (but not
backup withholding) will apply, however, to a payment of the proceeds of a sale
of FSP common stock by foreign offices of certain brokers, including foreign
offices of a broker that:

      o     is a United States person;

      o     derives 50% or more of its gross income for certain periods from the
            conduct of a trade or business in the United States; or

      o     is a "controlled foreign corporation" for United States tax
            purposes.

      Information reporting will not apply in the above cases if the broker has
documentary evidence in its records that the holder is a non-U.S. shareholder
and certain conditions are met, or the non-U.S. shareholder otherwise
establishes an exemption.

      Payment to or through a United States office of a broker of the proceeds
of a sale of FSP common stock is subject to both backup withholding and
information reporting unless the shareholder certifies in the manner required
that he or she is a non-U.S. shareholder and satisfies certain other
qualifications under penalties of perjury or otherwise establishes an exemption.

State and Local Tax

      The discussion herein concerns only the United States federal income tax
treatment likely to be accorded to the combined company and its shareholders. No
consideration has been given to the state and local tax treatment of such
parties. The state and local tax treatment may not conform to the federal
treatment described above. As a result, a shareholder should consult his or her
own tax advisor regarding the specific state and local tax consequences of the
Merger and acquisition, ownership, and disposition of FSP common stock in the
combined company.

Item 15. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

      Our Articles of Incorporation require us to indemnify our directors,
officers, employees, agents and other persons acting on behalf of or at our
request to the fullest extent permitted from time to time by Maryland law. The
General Corporation Law of the State of Maryland permits a corporation to
indemnify its directors, officers and certain other parties against judgments,
penalties, fines, settlements and reasonable expenses, including attorneys'
fees, actually incurred by them in connection with any proceeding to which they
may be made a party by reason of their services to or at the request of the
corporation, unless it is established that (i) the act or omission of the
indemnified party was material to the matter giving rise to the proceeding and
was committed in bad faith or was the result of active and deliberate
dishonesty, (ii) the indemnified party actually received an improper personal
benefit, or (iii) in the case of any criminal proceeding, the indemnified party
had reasonable cause to believe that the act or omission was unlawful.
Indemnification may be made against judgments, penalties, fines, settlements and
reasonable expenses actually incurred by the director or officer in connection
with the proceeding; provided, however, that if the proceeding is one by or in
the right of the corporation, indemnification may not be made with respect to
any proceeding in which the director or officer has been adjudged to be liable
to the corporation. In addition, a director or officer may not be indemnified
with respect to any proceeding charging improper personal benefit to the
director or officer in which the director or officer was adjudged to be liable
on the basis that personal benefit was improperly received.

      Our Articles of Incorporation contain a provision eliminating the personal
liability of a director or officer to us or our stockholders for monetary
damages to the fullest extent permitted by Maryland law. The General Corporation
Law of the State of Maryland permits the liability of directors and officers to
a corporation or its stockholders for money damages to be limited, except (i) to
the extent that a judgment or other final adjudication is entered adverse to the
director or officer in a proceeding based on a finding that the director's or
officer's action, or failure to act, was the result of active and deliberative
dishonesty and was material to the cause of action adjudicated in the proceeding
or (ii) to the extent it is proved that the director or officer actually
received an improper benefit or profit in money, property or services. This
provision of the General Corporation Law of the State of Maryland does not limit
our ability or our stockholders' ability to obtain other relief, such as an
injunction or rescission.

ITEM 17. Undertakings.

      (a)   The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that:

            (1) For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities
      Act of 1933, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as
      part of this registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and
      contained in a form of prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule
      424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act will be deemed to be
      part of this registration statement as of the time it was declared
      effective.

            (2) For the purpose of determining any liability under the
      Securities Act of 1933, each post-effective amendment that contains a form
      of prospectus shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating
      to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at
      that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

      (b) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of
determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the
registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit
plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be
deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered
therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be
the initial bona fide offering thereof.

      (c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the
Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling
persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise,
the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and
Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed
in that Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for


                                      II-2


indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the
registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling
person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or
proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in
connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in
the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent,
submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such
indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will
be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.


                                      II-3


                                   SIGNATURES


      Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, the registrant
certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets all the
requirements for filing on Form S-3 and has duly caused this registration
statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly
authorized, in the town of Wakefield, Commonwealth of Massachusetts, on the 31st
