Report of Independent Auditors

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of Gladstone Commercial Corporation

We have audited the accompanying Combined Historical Summary of Revenue and Certain Expenses (the “combined historical summary”) of 13 Industrial Park Dr., Mt. Pocono, PA, 3701 E. Virginia Beach Blvd., Norfolk, VA, 290 Guthrie Ave., Montreal, QC, and 855 Industriel Blvd., Granby, QC (the “Properties”) as described in Note 1 for the year ended December 31, 2003. This combined historical summary is the responsibility of the Properties’ management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on this combined historical summary based on our audit.

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

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

In our opinion, the combined historical summary referred to above presents fairly, in all material respects, the revenues and certain expenses, as described in Note 2, of the Properties for the year ended December 31, 2003, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Notes to Combined Historical Summary of Revenue and Certain Expenses

1.   Business
 
    The accompanying combined historical summary of revenue and certain expenses relates to the operations of four industrial buildings (the “Properties”): a 223,275 square foot industrial building located in Mt. Pocono, Pennsylvania (“13 Industrial Park Dr.”), a 25,797 square foot industrial building located in Norfolk, Virginia (“3701 E. Virginia Beach Blvd.”), a 42,490 square foot industrial building located in Montreal, Quebec (“290 Guthrie Ave.”), and a 99,981 square foot industrial building located in Granby, Quebec (“855 Industriel Blvd.”). Each building is a single tenant facility and is fully occupied under a 20 year lease with approximately 18 years remaining at December 31, 2003.
 
2.   Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
 
    Basis of Presentation
 
    The accompanying combined historical summary of revenue and certain expenses was prepared for the purpose of complying with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) in connection with Gladstone Commercial Corporation’s acquisition of the Properties. The SEC rules and regulations require an audited historical summary of revenue and certain expenses for the most recent fiscal year which excludes items not comparable to the proposed future operations of the Properties. Because the Properties were acquired from a single seller, the SEC rules and regulations allow for a combined presentation of revenue and certain expenses.
 
    The combined historical summary is not representative of the actual operations of the Properties for the period presented nor indicative of future operations as certain expenses, primarily depreciation, amortization, interest expense, professional fees and management fees, which may not be comparable to the expenses expected to be incurred by Gladstone Commercial Corporation in future operations of the Properties, have been excluded.
 
    Revenue and Expense Recognition
 
    Revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the related lease. Expenses are recognized in the period in which they are incurred.
 
    Use of Estimates
 
    The preparation of this combined historical summary of revenue and certain expenses in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
 
    Major Tenants
 
    During 2003, the Properties’ total base rent of $1,113,507 was attributable to three tenants.
 
    Foreign Currency Transactions
 
    The tenant lease agreements for 290 Guthrie Ave. and 855 Industriel Blvd. provide for monthly rental payments denominated in Canadian dollars. The monthly rental payments are translated into United States Dollars immediately upon receipt. Gains and losses on these foreign currency transactions are included in this combined historical summary as exchange gains and losses on foreign currency transactions.

Notes to Combined Historical Summary of Revenue and Certain Expenses

Operating Expenses

     The leases discussed in Note 3 require the tenants to pay substantially all of the Properties’ operating expenses. These expenses are not included in the accompanying combined historical summary of revenue and certain expenses, including approximately $275,000 in property taxes that the Properties would be required to pay if the tenants fail to pay them.

3.   Rentals
 
    On July 28, 2001, 13 Industrial Park Dr. entered into a lease agreement with United Envelope, LLC for the entire building. The lease had an initial term of 20 years, and accounts for $567,000 of the base rents in the combined historical summary and $11,015,376 of the future minimum rentals in the accompanying table.
 
    On July 28, 2001, 3701 E. Virginia Beach Blvd. entered into a lease agreement with iGetSmart.com for the entire building. The lease had an initial term of 20 years, and accounts for $93,314 of the base rents in the combined historical summary and $1,812,849 of the future minimum rentals in the accompanying table.
 
    On July 28, 2001, 290 Guthrie Ave. entered into a lease agreement with Data Business Form Limited for the entire building. The lease had an initial term of 20 years, and accounts for $158,083 of the base rents in the combined historical summary and $3,345,921 of the future minimum rentals in the accompanying table.
 
    On July 28, 2001, 855 Industriel Blvd. entered into a lease agreement with Data Business Form Limited for the entire building. The lease had an initial term of 20 years, and accounts for $295,155 of the base rents in the combined historical summary and $6,243,690 of the future minimum rentals in the accompanying table.
 
    The lease agreements provide for base rent increases upon the occurrence of certain events, primarily a change in control of the landlord. Such events are defined in the lease agreements collectively as a “Change of Control”. A Change of Control occurred in May 2004 for all four of the Properties and triggered 3% base rent increases as of the date of the Change of Control as well as 3% increases every three years over the remainder of the lease agreements.
 
    Future minimum rentals as of December 31, 2003, including the base rent increases triggered by the Change of Control, to be received under these lease agreements are as follows:
                 
Years Ending                
2003
          $ 1,177,290  
2004
            1,188,555  
2005
            1,188,555  
2006
            1,212,750  
2007
            1,224,211  
Thereafter
            16,426,475  

    Future minimum rentals denominated in Canadian Dollars have been translated using the exchange rate at December 31, 2003 in the table above.
 
4.   Unaudited Interim Statements
 
    The combined historical summaries of revenue and certain expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 and 2003 are unaudited. As a result, these interim combined historical summaries should be read in conjunction with the combined historical summaries and notes included in the December 31, 2003 combined historical summary of revenue and certain expenses. The interim combined historical summaries reflect all adjustments which management believes are necessary for the fair presentation of the combined historical summaries of revenue and certain expenses for the interim periods presented. These adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The combined historical summaries of revenue and certain expenses for such interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results for a full year.
