MARKET SMARTNORTHERN VIRGINIA‘073Q‘07<strong>4Q</strong>Quarter in ReviewLeasing activity in Northern Virginia picked upconsiderable velocity during the fourth quarter,particularly in submarkets located inside the Beltway,although a slow start to the year resulted in taperedgrowth relative to the recent booms experienced overthe previous four years.Key Market IndicatorsSupplyYTD Net Absorption137,730,157SF746,707 SFPositive net absorption of 450,584 square feet duringthe past three months produced the most robustquarter of 2007, but annual net absorption of 745,707fell far short of the 4.9 million square feet of absorptionaveraged annually in the area since year-end 2002.While Northern Virginia could not match the aggressiveabsorption totals achieved in recent years, certainsegments of the market displayed particularly strongfundamentals. Trophy space in Tysons Corner andReston Town Center featured some of the highestrental rates and lowest vacancy rates in the area, anddemand for office space inside the Beltway acrossvirtually all asset classes continued to soar.Arlington County captured a 70.0% share of NorthernVirginia’s net absorption in the fourth quarter,contributing 314,315 square feet of positive netabsorption toward the region’s total. Alexandria posted147,213 square feet of positive net absorption, whichwhen factored with negative net absorption in Fairfaxand Prince William Counties, and modest positive netabsorption in Loudoun County, resulted in virtually allthe quarterly growth being focused inside the Beltway.With aggressive new construction in Reston, Herndonand Route 28 South, vacancy rates climbed to 9.8% inNorthern Virginia during the fourth quarter, theirhighest point since mid-year 2005. 3.1 million squarefeet of new construction delivered to the market in2007, 94.4% of which fell outside the Beltway. The newdeliveries were 28.7% preleased, and the 5.9 millionsquare foot under-construction pipeline was 26.7%preleased, which threatened to push vacancy rateshigher over the short term.While rental rates held steady during the fourth quarterin spite of the new deliveries, increased concessionpackages became prevalent in many outlying markets.Tenant improvement allowances above $65 per squarefoot were obtained on select deals, often withgenerous periods of free rent. While the Toll Roadstruggled to realize rental rate growth, the supplyconstrainedenvironment inside the Beltway triggeredcontinued rent increases for buildings in the Rosslyn-Ballston Corridor, Alexandria, Crystal City and TysonsCorner, most of which have already experienced 6.0%annual rent growth over the past three years.1801 K Street, NW Suite 1000 Washington, DC 20006 + 202.719.50001600 Tysons Boulevard Suite 1000 McLean, VA 22102 + 703.485.8800SFDirect Vacancy Rate 9.8%Total Vacancy Rate 11.4%Average Asking Rent$30.34 PSFUnder Construction5,936,219 SFNet Absorption, New Supply and Total Vacancy RateChange in Supply Net Absorption Total Vacancy10,000,0008,000,00030%25%6,000,0004,000,00020%2,000,00015%010%(2,000,000)(4,000,000)5%(6,000,000)0%'00 '01 '02 '03 '04 '05 '06 <strong>'07</strong>Class A vs. B Average Asking Rental Rates$ PSFClass AClass B$36$32$28$24$20$16$12$8$4$0'00 '01 '02 '03 '04 '05 '06 <strong>'07</strong>www.joneslanglasalle-dc.com


MARKET SMARTNORTHERN VIRGINIA‘073Q‘07<strong>4Q</strong>Development ActivityNorthern Virginia averaged 2.6 million square feet ofnew construction over the past four years. In 2007, 3.1million square feet delivered and in 2008, 5.3 millionsquare feet will come online.The development and new delivery pipelines, whichhave historically seen preleasing levels surpass 60%,both remain below 30% preleased. Properties insidethe Beltway and situated around established amenitybases, such as Reston Town Center and TysonsCorner Center have fared comparatively well, while theremaining pipeline excluding those properties endedthe fourth quarter just 18.8% preleased.While new development is substantially higher thannormal, the current pipeline will result in a moderate3.8% increase to Northern Virginia’s massive 137.7million square foot existing inventory. The regions’strong economy, demographics and population trendshave enticed quality tenants to expand or relocate inthe area, such as Volkswagen, Apple and the CollegeBoard, and the vast presence of the federalgovernment continues to make Northern Virginia thepreferred location for defense contractors andinformation technology firms.The fourth quarter delivery of the 177,046 square footTwo Liberty Center in Ballston and next quarter’splanned delivery of the 633,000 square foot Waterviewbuilding in Rosslyn also showcases Northern Virginiaas an alternative to properties in Downtown D.C. DFIInternational and the Corporate Executive Board, twoestablished D.C. tenants, opted to relocate to newbuildings in the Rosslyn-Ballston Corridor, whichprovided cost savings and space planning benefits overoptions Downtown.Development Pipeline6,000,0005,000,0004,000,0003,000,0002,000,0001,000,0000Preleased (SF)Available (SF)'03 '04 '05 '06 <strong>'07</strong> '08 '09DemandWith over 10 active requirements over 70,000 squarefeet, the Northern Virginia market is poised to capturesignificant leasing activity over the quarters ahead.Proximity to federal agencies and key governmentinstallations, such as Fort Belvoir, the Pentagon, NROand CIA, typically drives over half of all demand in theregion, although international corporations areincreasingly embracing Northern Virginia’s favorablebusiness climate, solid regional amenities and welleducatedlocal work force.Next quarter Volkswagen will open its new NorthAmerican headquarters in Herndon, which the companyreportedly selected due to a combination of state andcounty incentives, local demographics and proximity to amajor international airport. Markets closer to the Districtare projected to capture the most attention from privatesector professional service tenants in the market, and atrend among non-profits and associations that havebeen migrating from the District across the Potomac intoCrystal City and Alexandria is expected to continue.Rental RatesAverage asking rental rates in Northern Virginia climbedto a new historical high of $30.34 per square foot duringthe fourth quarter, with Trophy-quality space in TysonsCorner, Reston Town Center and the Rosslyn-BallstonCorridor cracking $50.00 per square foot. Five of eightsubmarkets in Alexandria and Arlington Countyaveraged rents above $33.00 per square foot, whilenone of the 21 submarkets in Fairfax, Prince William andLoudoun Counties surpassed that figure. Ballston led allregional submarkets with average asking rents of $37.10per square foot.Looking AheadWith local employment growth expected to generateapproximately 40,000 jobs in the area in 2008, it couldtake two years of economic expansion for the largequantities of new office space delivering to the marketalong the Dulles Toll Road to strike a balance withcurrent demand in the market. Although no major rentcorrection is expected, rent growth in outlying areasshould more closely mirror the rate of inflation at 2% to3%, and concessions packages are likely to remain highto attract occupiers.Downtown tenants will continue to look for opportunitiesacross the river in Rosslyn-Ballston and Crystal City.However, quality new construction projects in ArlingtonCounty will usher in asking rents previously unseen inNorthern Virginia, and begin to erode the marginbetween D.C. and Arlington County rental rates.1801 K Street, NW Suite 1000 Washington, DC 20006 + 202.719.50001600 Tysons Boulevard Suite 1000 McLean, VA 22102 + 703.485.8800www.joneslanglasalle-dc.com


MARKET SMARTALEXANDRIA‘07<strong>4Q</strong>Quarter in ReviewRobust leasing activity in Old Town during the fourthquarter led already compressed vacancy rates inAlexandria even lower, as just three blocks of existingspace greater than 25,000 square feet were availableand market conditions inside the Beltway continued totighten.Key Market IndicatorsSupplyYTD Net Absorption12,788,433 SF204,242 SFOld Town experienced a 144,620 square foot drop inavailable space during the fourth quarter, and recordedthe most annual absorption of any of the 11submarkets located inside the Beltway, with 268,270square feet of positive net absorption. Negative netabsorption in the I-395 Corridor and flat absorption inthe Eisenhower Avenue submarket produced 204,242square feet of positive net absorption acrossAlexandria – more than double the market’s absorptiontotal of 2006.Direct Vacancy Rate 4.6%Total Vacancy Rate 5.7%Average Asking Rent$30.55 PSFUnder Construction475,472 SFMPRI’s 126,259 square foot move-in at 1320 BraddockPlace was the largest change of the quarter across allof Northern Virginia, and the move functioned to lowerdirect vacancy rates from 5.7% last quarter to 4.6% inthe fourth quarter, their lowest point since July 2000.The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office expanded itspresence in Old Town during the fourth quarter bytaking 31,529 square feet at 1925 Ballenger Avenue, abuilding where another established Old Town tenant,media firm The Motley Fool, also recently acquired31,328 square feet of expansion space.Class A rental rates in Alexandria increased 4.5% overthe past 12 months to an all-time high of $34.65 persquare foot. Largely due to new Class A space beingquickly absorbed, average asking rental rates acrossall classes fell modestly during the fourth quarter from$31.43 per square foot last quarter to $30.55 persquare foot. A 52% drop in available Class A spaceover the quarter resulted in average asking rental ratesbeing skewed to cover more Class B and C properties,which comprised 63% of the available inventory.Looking AheadTight vacancy rates will continue to have a significantimpact on market dynamics within Alexandria over thenext year, as options for tenants will be limited by adearth of large blocks of available space. PTO andassociated business expansion should keep vacancyrates low for the foreseeable future, as this demand,along with healthy nonprofit and association leasingactivity, such as the American Society of ClinicalOncology’s 128,105 square foot prelease at CarlyleOverlook, should yield low vacancy rates andcontinued rental rate growth throughout Alexandriaover the quarters ahead.SFNet Absorption, New Supply and Total Vacancy RateChange in Supply Net Absorption Total Vacancy1,500,0001,000,000500,0000(500,000)(1,000,000)'00 '01 '02 '03 '04 '05 '06 <strong>'07</strong>Class A vs. B Average Asking Rental Rates$ PSFClass AClass B$40$35$30$25$20$15$10$5$0'00 '01 '02 '03 '04 '05 '06 <strong>'07</strong>30%25%20%15%10%5%0%1801 K Street, NW Suite 1000 Washington, DC 20006 + 202.719.50001600 Tysons Boulevard Suite 1000 McLean, VA 22102 + 703.485.8800www.joneslanglasalle-dc.com


MARKET SMARTARLINGTON COUNTY‘07<strong>4Q</strong>Quarter in ReviewArlington County recorded 314,315 square feet ofpositive net absorption during the fourth quarter, morethan double that of any other Northern Virginia city orcounty, and a validation of the strength of the marketinside the Beltway.Key Market IndicatorsSupplyYTD Net Absorption31,997,656 SF239,712 SFMove-ins by DFI International and Strategic Analysis, arenewal by the U.S. Army Corp of Engineers, andexpansions by System Planning Corporation and theU.S. Environmental Protection Agency highlighted theleasing activity that helped Arlington County capture a70.0% share of Northern Virginia’s net absorption in thefourth quarter.The delivery of the 94% leased 4075 Wilson Boulevardcontributed 147,066 square feet of absorption to thearea’s occupancy total, and reflected the vitality of themarket. Preleasing activity remained exceedinglystrong in Arlington County, and large blocks of spacewere in short supply.

Ballston registered 156,452 squarefeet of positive net absorption during the fourth quarter,the 13 th consecutive quarter of positive net absorption,and the most of Northern Virginia’s 30 submarkets.Looking AheadTight market conditions in Arlington County shouldpersist, as limited existing blocks of space and aboveaveragepreleasing at new deliveries keep vacancyrates compressed.

MARKET SMARTCRYSTAL CITY‘07<strong>4Q</strong>Quarter in ReviewDespite sound market fundamentals, Crystal City wasaffected in 2007 by the inevitable slowdown inNorthern Virginia’s seven year long economicrecovery. Net absorption in Crystal City through thefourth quarter of 2007 was 195,876 square feet, whichwas above average for Northern Virginia submarkets,but 42% below the area’s 2006 total.Vacancy rates in Crystal City declined during the fourthquarter, but remained the highest in Arlington Countyand continued to face additional long-term challengesdue to BRAC. Five blocks of contiguous availablespace greater than 100,000 square feet providedoptions for tenants in the market, and average askingrental rates declined modestly, from $35.66 per squarefoot last quarter to $35.48 per square foot at the end ofthe fourth quarter.Key Market IndicatorsSupply10,687,515 SFYTD Net Absorption195,876 SFDirect Vacancy Rate 15.1%Total Vacancy Rate 15.7%Average Asking Rent$35.48 PSFUnder Construction360,000 SFModerate leasing velocity served to reduce directvacancy rates from 17.4% at year-end 2006 to 15.1%in the fourth quarter of 2007. A three-fold increase inthe amount of sublease space over the same periodproduced a less pronounced drop in total vacancyrates, which ended the quarter at 15.7%. Deal volumewas concentrated in small and mid-size transactions,with the two largest leases of the quarter a pair ofrenewals in the 25,000 to 55,000 square foot range.Looking AheadWith more than half the large blocks of available spacelocated inside the Beltway, Crystal City remained oneof the few remaining locations for large tenants tosecure space in core Northern Virginia submarkets.The presence of the Pentagon will continue to attract ahealthy share of defense contractors, but BRACthreatens to move hundreds of government jobs tosecure space outside the Beltway over the long term.Effects should be somewhat mitigated by demand fromD.C. tenants, particularly non-profits, which havedemonstrated a willingness to move out of the city toseek relief from dramatic rent increases, high taxesand lofty building expenses of downtown properties.While D.C. tenants should continue to gravitate towardthe value proposition of moving across the river, thearea will face competition from emerging Districtsubmarkets, such as NoMa and Southeast, which willcompete on a cost basis with Crystal City propertiesand offer the prestige and convenience of a downtownaddress. Continued residential conversions and retailrenovations should give Crystal City a modest edgeover outlying D.C. submarkets as the area continues toestablish itself as a truly mixed-use 24/7 community.SFNet Absorption, New Supply and Total Vacancy RateChange in Supply Net Absorption Total Vacancy500,0000(500,000)(1,000,000)(1,500,000)'00 '01 '02 '03 '04 '05 '06 <strong>'07</strong>Class A vs. B Average Asking Rental Rates$ PSFClass AClass B$40$35$30$25$20$15$10$5$0'00 '01 '02 '03 '04 '05 '06 <strong>'07</strong>25%20%15%10%5%0%1801 K Street, NW Suite 1000 Washington, DC 20006 + 202.719.50001600 Tysons Boulevard Suite 1000 McLean, VA 22102 + 703.485.8800www.joneslanglasalle-dc.com


MARKET SMARTROSSLYN BALLSTONCORRIDOR‘07<strong>4Q</strong>Quarter in ReviewTight market conditions persisted in the RosslynBallston Corridor during the fourth quarter, as directvacancy rates fell to 5.5%, and large blocks ofavailable space remained scarce. Direct vacancy ratesin the Class A market hit a 25-quarter low of 3.9%, andrental rates in the Rosslyn Ballston Corridor remainedthe highest in Northern Virginia.There were just four blocks of vacant space greaterthan 50,000 square feet in the Rosslyn BallstonCorridor at the end of the fourth quarter. With a lack ofavailable existing space, the bulk of absorption wasconcentrated in the RB Corridor’s lone new delivery ofthe year: Two Liberty Center, a 177,046 square footClass A building at 4075 Wilson Boulevard in Ballston,which was the 94% preleased to DFI International andStrategic Analysis.The removal of 353,000 square feet of supply in theClarendon/Courthouse submarket due Verizon’s moveoutand the renovations at 1310 N. Courthouse Roadreduced year-to-date net absorption in the RB Corridor,but the decline was offset by strong leasing activityacross other submarkets, particularly Ballston. Ballstonregistered 156,452 square feet of positive netabsorption during the fourth quarter, the 13 thconsecutive quarter of positive net absorption, and themost of Northern Virginia’s 30 submarkets.While average asking rental rates in the RB Corridordeclined modestly, from $35.46 per square foot in thethird quarter to $35.10 per square foot in the fourthquarter, Class A rates achieved an all-time high of$38.39 per square foot. Additionally, select Class Aproperties, such as Commonwealth Tower and 1101Wilson Boulevard garnered taking rents in the high$40’s and low $50’s per square foot, respectively,which established yet another unprecedented mark.Looking AheadAccessibility to downtown Washington, and a 44.2%discount relative to CBD properties, makes the RosslynBallston Corridor a compelling alternative tocomparable space in the District. Energy trading firmGridPoint Inc. became the most recent D.C. tenant tocross the river and take advantage of this valueproposition, as it decided to relocate its headquartersfrom K Street to 40,000 square feet in Clarendon. Newconstruction projects, which will provide large tenantsan opportunity to consolidate under one roof – just asthe Corporate Executive Board is in the process ofdoing at Waterview – should only strengthen theRosslyn Ballston Corridor’s appeal to tenants in thearea’s supply-constrained environment.1801 K Street, NW Suite 1000 Washington, DC 20006 + 202.719.50001600 Tysons Boulevard Suite 1000 McLean, VA 22102 + 703.485.8800SFKey Market IndicatorsSupply19,260,573 SFYTD Net Absorption7,132 SFDirect Vacancy Rate 5.5%Total Vacancy Rate 7.1%Average Asking Rent$35.10 PSFUnder Construction1,013,198 SFNet Absorption, New Supply and Total Vacancy RateChange in Supply Net Absorption Total Vacancy1,000,00025%750,00020%500,000250,00015%0(250,000)10%(500,000)5%(750,000)(1,000,000)0%'00 '01 '02 '03 '04 '05 '06 <strong>'07</strong>Class A vs. B Average Asking Rental Rates$ PSFClass AClass B$40$35$30$25$20$15$10$5$0'00 '01 '02 '03 '04 '05 '06 <strong>'07</strong>www.joneslanglasalle-dc.com


MARKET SMARTFAIRFAX COUNTY‘07<strong>4Q</strong>Quarter in ReviewVacancy rates rose in Fairfax County for the secondconsecutive quarter, as the historically fast-growingsuburban business hubs of Tysons Corner and theDulles Toll Road Corridor experienced an extended lullin tenant demand, and new construction outpaced therate of preleasing activity.Key Market IndicatorsSupplyYTD Net Absorption83,960,974 SF58,233 SFAfter four years of robust net absorption in FairfaxCounty, averaging 3.1 million square feet per year,growth tapered in 2007, with just 58,233 square feet ofpositive net absorption. Fairfax County recorded twoconsecutive quarters of negative net absorption toclose out the year, including negative net absorption of44,408 square feet during the fourth quarter.Direct vacancy rates climbed 1.9% since year-end2006, to end the fourth quarter at 10.9%, the highest inthe County in 12 quarters. A modest increase insublease space resulted in total vacancy rates of12.5%, which also ended up 1.9% on the year.Average asking rental rates remained solid due to newhigh-end construction projects throughout the region.The size of the Class A inventory in Fairfax Countyincreased 2.4 million square feet during the past 12months, which led average asking rental rates 6.2%higher. Average asking rental rates across all classesended the fourth quarter at an all-time high of $29.34per square foot. Class A rental rates rose 4.9% overthe same period to end the fourth quarter at $31.81 persquare foot.Looking AheadSegmented demand and expansive new developmentcontinues throughout Fairfax County, and the 3.1million square foot under construction pipeline was just23.6% preleased. While interest remains plentiful inselect project types, such as Reston Town Center andTysons Corner Trophy properties, demand was cool inoutlying markets. Vacancy is likely to continue to riseover the next 12 months due to low levels of preleasingat projects outside of core markets, and limiteddemand to backfill older Class A and B buildings.While vacancy rates are projected to climb, absorptionin Fairfax County during the first quarter of 2008 shouldbe robust. Over 575,000 square feet of positive netabsorption was on track to occur over the next threemonths due to Volkswagen’s move-in at its new NorthAmerican Headquarters in Herndon, the delivery of theheavily preleased projects at Reston Town Center, andan array of other new construction projects becomingavailable to tenants with increasingly generousconcession packages.1801 K Street, NW Suite 1000 Washington, DC 20006 + 202.719.50001600 Tysons Boulevard Suite 1000 McLean, VA 22102 + 703.485.8800SFDirect Vacancy Rate 10.9%Total Vacancy Rate 12.5%Average Asking Rent$29.34 PSFUnder Construction3,127,205 SFNet Absorption, New Supply and Total Vacancy RateChange in Supply Net Absorption Total Vacancy8,000,0006,000,00025%20%4,000,00015%2,000,00010%0(2,000,000)5%(4,000,000)0%'00 '01 '02 '03 '04 '05 '06 <strong>'07</strong>Class A vs. B Average Asking Rental Rates$ PSFClass AClass B$35$30$25$20$15$10$5$0'00 '01 '02 '03 '04 '05 '06 <strong>'07</strong>www.joneslanglasalle-dc.com


MARKET SMARTTYSONS CORNER‘07<strong>4Q</strong>Quarter in ReviewWith just 5.3% direct vacancy in the Class A marketand 2.2% direct vacancy in the Trophy market, tenantsin Tysons Corner faced limited options andexceptionally tight conditions at the end of the fourthquarter.Key Market IndicatorsSupplyYTD Net Absorption21,876,630 SF-102,196 SFBoth direct and total vacancy rates remainedunchanged during the fourth quarter, with rates holdingsteady at 8.9% and 10.9%, respectively. In theabsence of new large vacant blocks of spacebecoming available, absorption was largelynonexistent, with just 7,462 square feet of positive netabsorption in the fourth quarter.The small fourth quarter gain served to offset a fractionof the 102,196 square feet of negative net absorptionexperienced year-to-date in Tysons Corner, which wasprimarily the result of a third quarter move-out by LCCInternational at 7925 Jones Branch Drive and a seriesof smaller relocations.The average asking rental rate in Tysons Corneracross all market segments was disproportionatelyweighted by vast available space in the Class B and Csegments. Available space averaged $29.40 persquare foot, an increase of 4.2% over the past year.Direct space at Trophy properties averaged $40.24 persquare foot.Looking AheadUtility work for the new Metrorail project is scheduled tobegin in late January 2008. The project has thepotential to redefine Tysons Corner as a more efficient,pedestrian-friendly environment, although the shorttermbenefits to the area will be minimal. Constructionis planned for off-peak driving times, but additionaldelays are likely, particularly in locations situated nearthe Route 7 service roads.While the potential exists for short term delays, theaddition of high-speed rail service to the TysonsCorner market will only strengthen its position as aregional business hub.

MARKET SMARTRESTON/HERNDON‘07<strong>4Q</strong>Quarter in ReviewAfter a robust period of growth, in which 4.2 millionsquare feet of office space was absorbed in under fouryears, the Reston/Herndon Corridor grappled withslowing tenant demand and excessive speculativedevelopment during the fourth quarter.Five buildings covering 1.0 million square feetdelivered in Reston/Herndon during 2007, just 31.6%of which was preleased. Direct vacancy rates soaredfrom 10.7% at the beginning of the year to 12.3% inthe fourth quarter, and large inventories of subleasespace pushed total vacancy rates to 13.9%.While tenants along the Toll Road benefited from morechoice with a large amount of supply coming online,the increased options did not produce substantialdownward pressure on rental rates. Average askingrents increased 25 cents during the fourth quarter to anall-time high of $30.50 per square foot. Although rentalrates remained firm, landlord concession packagesbecame increasingly generous, with tenantimprovement allowances above $65 per square footand several months of free rent offered for long-termdeals with large, creditworthy tenants.Demand within the Reston/Herndon Corridor washighly segmented, as well-located properties withaccess to premium amenities captured the majority ofinterest from tenants in the market. Activity in andaround Reston Town Center was brisk, whilecommodity space in Class A and B buildings generatednotably less interest. Three of the five largest deals ofthe fourth quarter were signed in Reston Town Center,as professional service firms continued to gravitate tothe quality space and rich amenities of the area.Looking AheadAt the end of the fourth quarter, 1.6 million square feetwas under construction in Reston/Herndon, just 27.4%of which was preleased. With large blocks of space stillsitting vacant and federal spending patterns leveling orreceding, the Reston/Herndon Corridor may be facinga protracted climb in its vacancy rates.Development projects located near the region’s coreamenities and transportation structure should fare best,with space at Reston Town Center continuing togenerate the most preleasing activity and garnering thehighest rents. On the other hand, the five buildingsunder construction outside the confines of the TownCenter were 16.6% preleased at the fourth quarter’send, which will likely lead to downward pressure onrents, generous concession packages and increasedcompetition for securing tenant commitments.1801 K Street, NW Suite 1000 Washington, DC 20006 + 202.719.50001600 Tysons Boulevard Suite 1000 McLean, VA 22102 + 703.485.8800SFKey Market IndicatorsSupply25,003,785 SFYTD Net Absorption402,384 SFDirect Vacancy Rate 12.3%Total Vacancy Rate 13.9%Average Asking Rent$30.50 PSFUnder Construction1,612,841 SFNet Absorption, New Supply and Total Vacancy RateChange in Supply Net Absorption Total Vacancy3,500,00035%30%2,500,00025%1,500,00020%500,00015%10%(500,000)5%(1,500,000)0%'00 '01 '02 '03 '04 '05 '06 <strong>'07</strong>Class A vs. B Average Asking Rental Rates$ PSFClass AClass B$35$30$25$20$15$10$5$0'00 '01 '02 '03 '04 '05 '06 <strong>'07</strong>www.joneslanglasalle-dc.com


MARKET SMARTROUTE 28 SOUTH /CHANTILLY‘07<strong>4Q</strong>Quarter in ReviewAggressive new development in Route 28South/Chantilly, coupled with a slowdown in federalspending growth and reduced tenant demand, haspushed direct vacancy rates to record highs, and totalvacancy rates to their highest point in 20 quarters.10 new projects covering 1.5 million square feetdelivered in Route 28 South/Chantilly since the start ofthe year. Eight of these 10 projects delivered vacant,including the 160,000 square foot CommonwealthCentre during the fourth quarter. Just 15.5% of the newspace arriving on the market in Route 28South/Chantilly in 2007 was preleased, which led to a1.1 million square foot increase in vacant space in the10.7 million square foot market. Direct vacancy rates,which remained below 5% in mid-2005, and under 10%throughout all of 2006, rocketed to 18.7% by the fourthquarter of 2007.Despite vacancy rates that more than doubled over thepast 12 months, average asking rental rates in Route28 South climbed 14.0% since year-end 2006 to$30.14 per square foot, largely due to a 1.3 millionsquare foot increase in the size of the Class Ainventory. 80.1% of all available space in Route 28South was concentrated in Class A assets, whichstrongly correlated the submarket’s average rents tothose of the Class A market.SFKey Market IndicatorsSupply10,747,506 SFYTD Net Absorption225,242 SFDirect Vacancy Rate 18.7%Total Vacancy Rate 19.5%Average Asking Rent$30.14 PSFUnder Construction713,840 SFNet Absorption, New Supply and Total Vacancy RateChange in Supply Net Absorption Total Vacancy2,000,00025%1,500,00020%1,000,00015%Looking AheadNorthern Virginia submarkets located outside theBeltway, and Route 28 South/Chantilly in particular,have experienced the dual effects of a slowdown in thegrowth of federal spending and a massive wave of newdevelopment.

Excess supplywill likely signal larger concession packages anddownward pressure on rents, which will makeexpansions and relocations more palatable tocompanies dealing with the slowdown of the broadereconomy.

MARKET SMARTMERRIFIELD‘07<strong>4Q</strong>Quarter in ReviewMerrifield experienced a quiet fourth quarter, asvacancy rates and rental rates remained mostlyunchanged and positive net absorption served to offsetmixed results during the first part of the year.Entering the fourth quarter with year-to-date absorptionof negative 132,236 square feet, Merrifield posted66,998 square feet of positive net absorption duringthe final three months of the year to close out 2007with a modest drop in occupancy. Despite the outflowof occupied space, market conditions remained tight,with direct vacancy rates 2.2% below those ofneighboring Tysons Corner.Merrifield’s direct vacancy rate increased 10 basispoints to 6.7% during the fourth quarter. A 38%reduction in sublease space on the market resulted ina 120 basis point decline in total vacancy rates, as72,093 square feet were removed from the market, andrates dropped to 9.0%.Nearly 60,000 square feet of sublease space wastaken off the market at 2701 Prosperity Drive, and justtwo blocks of vacant space greater than 50,000 wereavailable at the end of the fourth quarter throughoutMerrifield. The site of the largest contiguous block ofspace was also the location of the largest direct leasetransaction of the quarter: 3190 Fairview Park Drive,where DynCorp International expanded 24,000 squarefeet. XM Satellite Radio signed the largest overalltransaction of the fourth quarter with a 47,000 squarefoot sublease at 2650 Park Tower Drive.Average asking rents stalled in 2007, falling 17 centsduring the fourth quarter, but ending the year up 0.2%from year-end 2006 at $30.22 per square foot.Looking AheadGovernment contractors account for the largest shareof Merrifield’s tenant base, which explains why theslowdown in federal procurement spending is inhibitingactivity in the market.

Tight market fundamentals allowed averageasking rental rates to increase 4.0% over the past yearto $25.10 per square foot, and prospects lookedfavorable due to a lack of new construction projects inthe area.4.0% of all occupied office space in the Fairfax Centersubmarket was subleased at quarter’s end. The fourthquarter alone posted an increase of 26,851 square feetof subleased space, and sublease space on themarket more than tripled from year-end 2006. Thelargest increases occurred at 4035 Ridge Top Roadand 3877 Fairfax Ridge Road, which each added over23,000 square feet of sublease space during the year.The sublease space marketed within Fairfax Centerremained at a significant discount to direct space onthe market at the end of the fourth quarter. Direct rentsclosed the quarter at $28.31 per square foot, a 27 centquarterly increase, while sublease rents closed thequarter at $20.58 per square foot, a 37.5% discount toprime space. Due to these discounts, the submarketdistinguished itself from other submarkets by offeringtenants significantly lower costs with close proximity toan increasing amenity base.Looking AheadWith no new developments delivering to the market,and supply and demand remaining relatively in check,we expect vacancy rates and rents to remain firm overthe short term. Weakness in the national economy hasaffected leasing in many markets across the country,but the large, stabilizing effect of federal spending inthe area should partially insulate Fairfax Center fromsuffering substantial negative consequences.SFNet Absorption, New Supply and Total Vacancy RateChange in Supply Net Absorption Total Vacancy600,000400,000200,0000(200,000)(400,000)(600,000)'00 '01 '02 '03 '04 '05 '06 <strong>'07</strong>Class A vs. B Average Asking Rental Rates$ PSFClass AClass B$35$30$25$20$15$10$5$0'00 '01 '02 '03 '04 '05 '06 <strong>'07</strong>25%20%15%10%5%0%1801 K Street, NW Suite 1000 Washington, DC 20006 + 202.719.50001600 Tysons Boulevard Suite 1000 McLean, VA 22102 + 703.485.8800www.joneslanglasalle-dc.com

Nearly 700,000square feet of office space was under construction inLoudoun County and slated to deliver over the nextthree quarters, just 9% of which was preleased.While new Class A projects should enhance averageasking rental rates and provide excellent choice fortenants in the market, Loudoun County’s competitiveposition relative to established job centers in FairfaxCounty remained tenuous. Additionally, weakeneddemand due to a slowdown in federal spending andsoftness in the national economy is expected to persistover the next 12 months.
