based in Wakefield, Massachusetts, focused on achieving current income and

banking/investment services. FSP owns an unleveraged portfolio of real estate,
including office buildings, apartment complexes and industrial use properties.

This press release may contain forward-looking statements or projections of
future performance. Forward-looking statements are statements that contain
predictions or projections of future events or performance, and often contain
words such as "anticipates", "can", "estimates", "believe", "expects",
"projects", "will", "might", or other words indicating a statement about the
future. The Company notes that any such forward-looking statements are subject
to change and are not guarantees of future performance, and that actual results
may differ materially from any such predictions or projections, based on various
important factors and including, without limitation, changes in economic
conditions in the markets in which the Company owns properties, changes in the
demand by investors for investment in Sponsored REITs, changes in the Company's
ability to renew, replace or extend its line of credit, changes in government
regulations and expenditures that cannot be anticipated such as utility rate and
usage increases, unanticipated repairs, additional staffing, insurance increases
and real estate tax valuation reassessments, the ability of the Company to
collect sufficient rents from each of its owned properties, and overall the
Company's susceptibility to the risks of owning and operating real property.
Additional information on the factors that could affect the Company's business
and financial results is included in the Company's periodic reports filed with
the Securities and Exchange Commission.
