trust manager who have the following skills and characteristics: (i) superior leadership
abilities; (ii) independence; (iii) commitment to improving the Companys value for the benefit of
its shareholders; (iv) innovative thought; (v) business and management experience; and (vi) a
working knowledge of basic finance and accounting principles. The Governance Committee also will
consider nominees that shareholders recommend, and these recommendations may be delivered in
writing to the attention of the Governance Committee in care of the Company Secretary at the
Companys principal executive offices. In addition, the Governance Committee develops and recommends to the Board corporate
governance policies and procedures applicable to the Company, particularly as such policies and
procedures may be required by federal and state securities laws, the New York Stock Exchange or any
other applicable regulatory requirements. The Governance Committee held three meetings in 2004. Code of Business Conduct All trust managers, officers and employees of the Company must act ethically at all times and
in accordance with the policies comprising the Companys Code of Business Conduct. The Code of
Business Conduct is published on the investor relations section of the Companys website at
www.crescent.com, and the Company intends to post amendments to and waivers from the Code of
Business Conduct on this website. SECTION 16(a) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (Exchange Act) requires the
Companys officers, trust managers and persons who own more than
10% of the Companys Common Shares, the Companys 6 3/4% Series
A convertible cumulative preferred shares of beneficial interest, par value $.01 per share
or the Companys 9.50% Series B cumulative redeemable preferred shares to file reports of ownership on Form 3 and changes in ownership on Forms 4 and
5 with the SEC and the New York Stock Exchange. The SEC rules also require such officers, trust
managers and 10% holders to furnish the Company with copies of all Section 16(a) forms that they
file. Based solely on its review of copies of such reports received or written representations from
certain reporting persons, the Company believes that all Section 16(a) filing requirements
applicable to its officers, trust managers and 10% shareholders were complied with for the fiscal
year ended December 31, 2004. 6

1996 Crescent Real Estate Equities Limited Partnership Unit Incentive Plan, as amended (the
Unit Plan) for partnership units of the Operating Partnership (Units) on a one-for-one
basis and (ii) exchange of Units for Common Shares on the basis of two Common Shares for each
Unit (assuming the Company elects to issue Common Shares rather than pay cash upon such
exchange).(6)
    
    Amount includes the number of Common Shares that may be issued following (i)
exercise of options (the Unit Options) granted pursuant to individual agreements to purchase
Units on a one-for-one basis and the subsequent exchange of such Units for Common Shares, with

    These restricted Units were granted effective December 1, 2004 under the 2004 Crescent Real Estate
Equities Limited Partnership Long Term Incentive Plan (the 2004 LTIP Plan) and the partnership
agreement of the Operating Partnership. The restricted units vest in 20% increments when the
average closing price of the Companys common shares on the New York Stock Exchange for the
immediately preceding 40 trading days equals or exceeds $19.00, $20.00, $21.00, $22.50 and $24.00.
The 2004 LTIP Plan also gives discretion to the General Partner to establish one or more
alternative objective annual performance targets for the Company. Any restricted Unit that is not
vested on or prior to June 30, 2010 will be forfeited. Each vested restricted Unit will be
exchangeable, beginning on the second anniversary of the date of grant, for cash equal to the value
of two Common Shares based on the closing price of the Common Shares on the date of exchange, and
subject to a six-month holding period following vesting, unless, prior to the date of the exchange,
the Company requests and obtains shareholder approval authorizing it, in its discretion, to deliver
instead two Common Shares in exchange for each such restricted Unit. Regular quarterly
distributions accrue on unvested restricted Units and are payable upon vesting of the restricted
Units. Compensation of Trust
Managers See Item 10. Trust
Managers and Executive Officers of the Registrant  Trust Manager
Compensation. Employment Agreement As part of the transactions in connection with formation of the Company, the Operating
Partnership assumed an employment agreement between Rainwater, Inc. and John C. Goff. The
Operating Partnership takes action through the General Partner. Mr. Goff serves as the sole member
of the board of directors of the General Partner. On February 19, 2002, the Company, the Operating
Partnership and Mr. Goff entered into a new employment agreement, which will terminate on February
19, 2007, pursuant to which Mr. Goff is entitled to an annual salary of $900,000 for 2004 and a
bonus as determined in the discretion of the Compensation Committee of the General Partner. In
addition, pursuant to the employment agreement, Mr. Goff was provided the right to earn (i) 300,000
shares of restricted stock, one-third of which will be earned on each of February 19, 2005, 2006
and 2007 and (ii) 1,500,000 Unit Options, one-fifth of which will be earned on each of February 19,
2003 through 2007. The Units underlying such Unit Options are exchangeable into two Common Shares
of the Company upon the satisfaction of certain conditions, including shareholder approval of the
exchange right. The salary under the employment agreement, which is not subject to a cap, may be increased at
the discretion of the Operating Partnership or, upon the Operating Partnerships request, the
Executive Compensation Committee of the Company may review and ratify all such increases in salary.
The Operating Partnership similarly determines any bonus to be paid under the employment
agreement, unless it requests the Executive Compensation Committee to review and ratify any such
bonuses granted to Mr. Goff. Agreements Not to Compete The Company and the Operating Partnership are dependent on the services of Richard E.
Rainwater and John C. Goff. Mr. Rainwater serves as Chairman of the Board of Trust Managers but
has no employment agreement with the Company and, therefore, is not obligated to remain with the
Company for any specified term. In connection with the initial 9

public offering of the Common Shares in May 1994, each of Messrs. Rainwater and Goff entered into a
Noncompetition Agreement with the Company that restricts him from engaging in certain real
estate-related activities during specified periods of time. The restrictions that Mr. Rainwaters Noncompetition Agreement imposes will terminate one year
after the later to occur of (i) the date on which Mr. Rainwater ceases to serve as a trust manager
of the Company, and (ii) the date on which Mr. Rainwaters beneficial ownership of the Company
(including Common Shares and Units) first represents less than a 2.5% ownership interest in the
Company. The restrictions that Mr. Goffs Noncompetition Agreement imposes will terminate one year
after Mr. Goff first ceases to be a trust manager or an executive officer of the Company. The
Noncompetition Agreements do not, among other things, prohibit Messrs. Rainwater and Goff from
engaging in certain activities in which they were engaged at the time of formation of the Company
in 1994 or from making certain passive real estate investments. Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation Messrs. Frank, Rowsey and Worrell, all of whom are members of the Board of Trust Managers of
the Company, served as members of the Executive Compensation Committee during 2004. Mr. Frank has
borrowed certain funds from the Operating Partnership in connection with the exercise of Options,
as described in Certain Relationships and Related Transactions below. 10

court of a pre-packaged bankruptcy plan for COPI. The Company agreed to fund certain of COPIs
costs, claims and expenses relating to the bankruptcy and related transactions. During the year
ended December 31, 2004, the Company loaned to COPI, or paid directly on COPIs behalf,
approximately $2.6 million to fund these costs, claims and expenses. The Company also agreed to
issue common shares with a minimum dollar value of approximately $2.2 million to the COPI
stockholders. In addition, the Company agreed to use commercially reasonable efforts to assist COPI in
arranging COPIs repayment of its $15.0 million obligation to Bank of America, together with any
accrued interest. COPI obtained the loan from Bank of America primarily to participate in
investments with the Company. As a condition to making the loan, Bank of America required Richard
E. Rainwater, the Chairman of the Companys Board of Trust Managers, and John C. Goff, the
Vice-Chairman of the Companys Board of Trust Managers and the Companys Chief Executive Officer,
to enter into a support agreement with COPI and Bank of America, pursuant to which Messrs.
Rainwater and Goff agreed to make additional equity investments in COPI under certain
circumstances. COPI used the proceeds of the sale of its interest in
AmeriCold Logistics LLC to repay
Bank of America in full. Pursuant to the agreement, the current and former directors and officers of COPI and the
Companys current and former trust managers and officers received a release from COPI of liability
for any actions taken prior to February 14, 2002, and received certain liability releases from COPI
and its stockholders under the COPI bankruptcy plan. Messrs. Rainwater and Goff are, respectively, the Chairman of the Board
and the Vice Chairman of the Board of the Company and, until February 14, 2002, were also, respectively,
the Chairman of the Board and the Vice Chairman of the Board of COPI. In addition, Mr. Goff serves as the Chief
Executive Officer of the Company and the General Partner and as the
sole director of the General Partner and,
until February 14, 2002, also served as Chief Executive Officer of COPI. Messrs. Frank and Rowsey are
members of the Board of the Company and, until their resignations on February 14, 2002, were members of the
board of directors of COPI. On March 10, 2003, COPI filed a plan under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code in
the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Texas. On June 22, 2004, the
bankruptcy court confirmed the bankruptcy plan, as amended. On November 4, 2004, COPI sold its
interest in AmeriCold Logistics, LLC to AmeriCold Realty Trust for approximately $19.1 million. In
accordance with the confirmed bankruptcy plan, COPI used approximately $15.4 million of the
proceeds to repay the loan from Bank of America, including accrued interest. In addition, in
accordance with the bankruptcy plan, COPI used approximately $4.4 million of the proceeds to
satisfy a portion of its debt obligations to the Company. On January 19, 2005, the bankruptcy plan became effective upon COPIs providing notification
to the bankruptcy court that all conditions to effectiveness had been satisfied. Following the effectiveness of the bankruptcy plan, the
Company issued 184,075 Common Shares to the stockholders
of COPI in satisfaction of the Companys final obligation under the agreement with COPI. The
Common Shares were valued at approximately $3.0 million in accordance with the terms of the
Companys agreement with COPI and the provisions of the bankruptcy plan. As stockholders of COPI,
certain of the Companys trust managers and executive officers, as a group, received an aggregate
of 25,946 Common Shares. Of this amount 19,347 Common Shares were issued to Richard E. Rainwater, the Chairman
of the Board of Trust Managers of the Company, and certain of his affiliates and an aggregate of 6,599 Common Shares were issued to other trust
managers and executive officers of the Company who held stock in COPI. DBL Holdings, Inc. Between June 1999 and December 2000, the Company contributed approximately $24.2 million to
DBL Holdings, Inc. (DBL). The contribution was used by DBL to make an equity contribution to
DBL-ABC, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of DBL, which committed to purchase an affiliated
partnership interest representing a 12.5% interest in G2 Opportunity Fund, LP (G2). G2 was
formed for the purpose of investing principally in commercial mortgage backed securities and is
managed and controlled by an entity (the G2 General Partner) that is owned equally by Goff-Moore 15

Strategic Partners, L.P. (GMSP) and GMAC Commercial Mortgage Corporation. The G2 General
Partner is entitled to an annual asset management fee. Additionally, the G2 General Partner has a
1% interest in profits and losses of G2 and, after payment of specified amounts to partners, a
promoted interest based on payments to unaffiliated limited partners. As an affiliated limited
partner, DBL-ABC, Inc.s returns are not impacted by the G2 General Partners promoted interest.
As of December 31, 2004, DBL-ABC, Inc. has received approximately $22.4 million cumulative
distributions. The investment balance as of December 31, 2004,
was approximately $13.0 million. In
February 2005, the Company received a cash distribution of approximately $17.9 million from DBL,
bringing the total distributions to $40.3 million on an initial investment of $24.2 million. The ownership structure of GMSP consists of an approximately 86% limited partnership interest
owned directly and indirectly by Richard E. Rainwater, Chairman of the Board of Trust Managers of
the Company, and an approximately 14% general partnership interest, of which approximately 6% is
owned by Darla Moore, who is married to Mr. Rainwater, and approximately 6% is owned by John C.
Goff, Vice-Chairman of the Companys Board of Trust Managers and Chief Executive Officer of the
Company. The remaining approximately 2% general partnership interest is owned by unrelated
parties. The Company reimbursed GMSP for the part-time services of an accountant in the amount of
$130,180.00 for 2004. Canyon Ranch On January 18, 2005, the Company contributed the Canyon Ranch Tucson destination resort
property, the Companys 50% interest and the Companys preferred interest in CR Las Vegas, LLC and
the Companys 30% interest in CR License, L.L.C., CR License II, L.L.C., CR Orlando LLC and CR
Miami LLC, to two newly formed entities, CR Spa, LLC and CR Operating, LLC. In exchange, the
Company received a 48% common equity interest in each new entity. The remaining 52% interest in
these entities is held by the founders of Canyon Ranch, who contributed their interests in CR Las
Vegas, LLC, CR License II, L.L.C., CR Orlando LLC and CR Miami LLC and the resort management
contracts. In addition, the Company sold the Canyon Ranch Lenox destination resort property to a
subsidiary of CR Operating, LLC. The founders of Canyon Ranch sold their interest in CR License,
L.L.C. to a subsidiary of CR Operating, LLC. As a result of these transactions, the new entities
own the following assets: Canyon Ranch Tucson, Canyon Ranch Lenox, Canyon Ranch SpaClub at the
Venetian Resort in Las Vegas, Canyon Ranch SpaClub on the Queen Mary 2 ocean liner, Canyon Ranch
Living Community in Miami, Florida, Canyon Ranch SpaClub at The Gaylord Palms Resort in Kissimmee,
Florida, and the Canyon Ranch trade names and trademarks. In addition, the newly formed entities completed a private placement of Mandatorily Redeemable
Convertible Preferred Membership Units for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $110.0
million. In this private placement, Richard E. Rainwater, Chairman of the Companys Board of Trust Managers, and certain of
his family members purchased approximately $27.1 million of these units on terms identical to those
extended to all other investors. The units are convertible
into a 25% common equity interest in CR Spa, LLC and CR Operating, LLC and pay distributions at the
rate of 8.5% per year in years one through seven, and 11% in years eight through ten. At the end
of this period, the holders of the units are entitled to receive a premium in an amount sufficient
to result in a cumulative return of 11% per year. The units are redeemable after seven years.
Also on January 18, 2005, the new entities completed a $95.0 million financing with Bank of
America. The loan has an interest-only term until maturity in February 2015, bears interest at
5.94% and is secured by the Canyon Ranch Tucson and Canyon Ranch Lenox destination resort
properties. As a result of these transactions, the Company received proceeds of approximately
$91.9 million, which were used to pay down or defease debt related to the Companys previous
investment in the properties and to pay down the Companys credit facility. In connection with this transaction, the Company has agreed to indemnify the founders
regarding the tax treatment of this transaction, not to exceed $2.5 million, and other matters.
The Company believes there is a remote likelihood that payment will ever be made related to these
indemnities. Other The Company has a policy which allows employees to purchase the Companys residential
properties marketed and sold by the Companys subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business.
This policy requires the individual to purchase the property for personal use or investment and
requires the property to be held for at least two years. In addition, this policy requires, among
other things, that the prices paid by affiliates must be equivalent to the prices paid by
unaffiliated third parties for similar properties in the same development and that the other terms
and conditions of the transaction must be at least as beneficial to the Company as the terms and
conditions with respect to the other properties in the same development.
In the first quarter of 2005, two executive officers entered into binding contracts to purchase
three condominium units at two of the Companys residential development projects for aggregate
consideration of approximately $3,295,000. 16

Management believes that the foregoing transactions are on terms no less favorable than those
that could have been obtained in comparable transactions with unaffiliated parties. 17
