Note 6. Acquisitions of Properties in France:

In July 1999, the Company purchased two newly-constructed buildings in France in
Lille and Indre et Loire, through an 80% majority owned subsidiary, at a total
cost of 29,150,000 French Francs ("FF") (approximately $4,736) of which FF
24,300,000 (approximately $3,948) was financed with limited recourse mortgage
debt. The Lille and Indre et Loire properties are leased to Gist-Brocades France
S. A. ("Gist-Brocades") and a subsidiary of the French postal service,
respectively, at an annual rent of FF 1,400,000 (approximately $227) and FF
1,600,000 (approximately $260), respectively. Each lease has an initial term of
six years followed by a renewal term of three years at the option of the lessee.
Rent will increase annually based on increases in the INSEE index, a French
index of construction costs.

The limited recourse mortgage loans have a term of fifteen years at which time
balloon payments will be due. The loans bear interest at an annual rate of 4.56%
for the first five loan years.

Note 7.  Mortgage Financings:
         --------------------

A. On July 15, 1999 the Company obtained $25,000 of limited recourse financing
collateralized by a deed of trust and a lease assignment on a property in Tempe,
Arizona that is subject to a net lease with America West Holdings Corporation
("America West"). The Company owns the property as a tenant-in-common with AWHQ
LLC, an affiliate of America West. As a result of the distribution of the entire
mortgage proceeds to the Company, the Company's undivided ownership interest in
the property was adjusted to 74.583%, representing its share of its net
contribution, after distribution of the mortgage proceeds, in the property. The
loan provides for monthly payments of interest and principal of $180 (of which
the Company's share is approximately $134) at an annual interest rate of 7.23%
based on a 25-year amortization schedule. The loan is scheduled to mature in
August 2009 at which time a balloon payment will be due.

B. On July 26, 1999, the Company obtained $17,100 of limited recourse financing
collateralized by 48 retail properties leased to AutoZone, Inc. ("AutoZone")
pursuant to four master leases with AutoZone. The loans consist of four tranches
which mature and fully amortize between January 2011 and August 2013 and bear
interest at an annual rate of 6.85%. Monthly debt service payments of principal
and interest are currently $172 plus certain administrative fees.

C. On August 31, 1999, the Company obtained $13,750 of limited recourse
financing collateralized by its two adjacent properties leased to the Gap, Inc.
("The Gap") in Erlanger, Kentucky. The loans bear interest at an annual rate of
7.91% and provide for monthly payments of interest and principal of $105, with
$9,682 of the amount payable based on a 66-year amortization schedule, and the
remaining $4,068 payable based on a 161-month (13 years and five-months)
amortization schedule. The loan matures in September 2004 and will be extended
for an additional five years if the Gap exercises its options to renew its
leases on or before May 1, 2004. If the loan is extended, the interest rate will
be reset to the lender's then prevailing rate for loans with a term of five
years. In connection with the financing, the Company paid off an existing
mortgage loan of $5,534.

Note 8.  Property in Topeka, Kansas:
         ---------------------------

On September 30 ,1999, the Company sold its property in Topeka, Kansas, leased
to Hotel Corporation of America ("Hotel Corp.") pursuant to Hotel Corp.'s
exercise of its purchase option. The Hotel Corp. lease was structured so that it
had the right to exercise its purchase option at any time during the lease term.
The exercise price was determined pursuant to a formula based on Hotel Corp.'s
operating cash flow of the hotel for the most recent twelve month period with a
minimum exercise price in an amount equal to the outstanding mortgage loan
balance on the property. Based on this formula, the exercise price was
determined to be $8,107, the outstanding mortgage loan balance. Hotel Corp.
assumed the mortgage loan obligation to complete the sale.

In connection with the sale, the Company realized a $137 gain. The Company's
annual cash flow (rent less mortgage debt service) from the Topeka property was
$70.

Note 9.  Subsequent Event:
         -----------------

In December 1996, KSG, Inc. ("KSG") notified the Company that it was exercising
its option to purchase the property it leases in Hazelwood, Missouri. The
Company and KSG were not able to reach an agreement on the exercise price. The
exercise price was to be determined based on the fair market value of the
property as encumbered by the lease, determined in part by discounting all
future rents over the remaining terms, including renewal terms, of the lease. A
dispute about the Company's calculation of a rent increase in April 1997
prevented an agreement or valuation. In January 1999, the Company and KSG
entered into an agreement to establish a minimum and maximum exercise price of
$9,000 and $11,500 and to defer the exercise price determination until a dispute
regarding an interpretation of the rent provisions of the lease was resolved. On
March 25, 1999, the Circuit Court of the County of St. Louis, State of Missouri
ruled in favor of the Company with regard to the interpretation of the terms of
the rent increase calculation. On November 1, 1999, the Company sold the
property to KSG for $11,000 plus an allowance of $100 for legal costs. Annual
rent from the KSG property was $921.

                Item 2. - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF

                  FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

                          (dollar amounts in thousands)

         The following information should be read in conjunction with the
Company's condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto as of
September 30, 1999 included in this quarterly report and the Company's Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1998. This quarterly report
contains forward looking statements. Such statements involve known and unknown
risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause the actual results,
performance or achievement of the Company to be materially different from the
results of operations or plans expressed or implied by such forward looking
statements. Accordingly, such information should not be regarded as
representations by the Company that the results or conditions described in such
statements or the objectives and plans of the Company will be achieved.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS:
- ----------------------

         Net income for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September
30, 1999 decreased by $668 and $922, respectively, as compared with the
three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 1998. Excluding
extraordinary charges of $621 and $39 on the early extinguishment of debt in
1999 and 1998, respectively, income for the comparable nine-month periods would
have reflected a decrease of $1,504. The decreases were primarily attributable
to a decrease in equity income, an increase in depreciation and amortization and
increases in general and administrative and property expenses. The current
nine-month period also included a $158 noncash charge on a writedown to fair
value on the Company's property leased to Motorola, Inc. which is held for sale.
These effects were partially offset by increases in lease revenues (rental
income and interest from direct financing leases) and other income.

         The decrease in equity income was due to a substantial decrease in
income from the Company's investment in the operating partnership of Meristar
Hospitality Corporation. The decrease in Meristar's earnings was due to a change
by Meristar in its method of accounting for contingent (i.e., percentage) rents
in interim financial periods. Meristar had previously accounted for contingent
rents ratably throughout the year based on its best estimates and historical
trends. In accordance with a new accounting pronouncement, Meristar is deferring
recognition of contingent rental income until specified targets on each
identified lease are met. The overall affect of this accounting pronouncement
affects the recognition of income in interim financial periods and should not
effect income for an annual reporting cycle.

         The increase in depreciation and amortization was due primarily to the
purchases of properties in 1998, the completion of the America West Holdings
Corp. build-to-suit project in the second quarter, and the completion of
renovation of the Moorestown, New Jersey property in connection with a lease
with Cendant Operations, Inc. that went into effect in May 1999. The increase in
general and administrative costs was due, in part, to expenses related to the
implementation of integrated accounting and asset management information system
and an increase in professional fees. The increase in property expenses was due
to higher management and performance fee expenses. The increase in interest
expense was due to the limited recourse mortgage financing placed on 48 retail
properties leased to AutoZone, Inc. and the properties leased to the Gap, Inc.
during the current quarter as well as a loan on the property leased to Eagle
Hardware & Garden, Inc. that was leveraged in the fourth quarter of 1998. As
described in Note 7 in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial
statements, the Company obtained $25,000 of limited recourse financing on the
America West property in September 1999. As the Company releverages existing,
unencumbered properties and obtains mortgage financing on newly acquired
properties and newly completed projects, interest on mortgages will increase.
The proceeds can be used to reduce the amounts outstanding on the Company's line
of credit.

         The increase in other income was due to amounts received in connection
with the settlement agreement with the former lessee of the Company's property
in Broomfield, Colorado and a bankruptcy distribution relating to a claim
against a former tenant of four of the Company's predecessor partnerships. Under
the Broomfield settlement, the former lessee agreed to forfeit its claim
relating to the exercise of a purchase option and agreed to pay the Company a
settlement of $700,000, for unpaid rents, interest and penalties assessed by the
Company for late payment and other expenses that had been incurred by the
Company. Hotel operating earnings were stable.

         Lease revenues have increased as a result of 1998 acquisitions and the
commencement of new leases in May 1999 with America West and Cendant Operations,
Inc. Solely as a result of these two leases, annual cash flow (rent less
mortgage debt service) will increase by $1,705. In addition, the Company's share
of annual cash flow from its equity investment, purchased in June 1999, in a
property net leased to CheckFree Corporation will initially be approximately
$550. As a result of the sale of the Hotel Corporation of America and KSG, Inc.
properties in September 1999 and November 1999, respectively, annual cash flow
will decrease by $991.

                Item 2. - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
            FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)

         Copeland Beverage Group, Inc. has defaulted on its loans and as a
result a receiver has been appointed to oversee the liquidation of the company.
The Copeland lease for a dairy processing plant in Los Angeles, California
provided annual cash flow of $1,800. The Company holds a $1,800 letter of credit
from Copeland and intends to draw on the letter for all outstanding rents. The
Company is exploring various options including re-leasing the facility to
another dairy/food service operator or redeveloping the property for alternative
use. DeVlieg Bullard, Inc. has filed a petition of bankruptcy and is in the
process of submitting a plan of reorganization to the bankruptcy court and has
not indicated whether it will seek to affirm or terminate its lease. Annual rent
from the DeVlieg Bullard lease is $954. The Company holds a letter of credit for
$831 from DeVlieg Bullard that expires in December 1999. The Company intends to
draw on the letter of credit for all outstanding rents before the expiration
date.

FINANCIAL CONDITION:
- --------------------

         There has been no material change in the Company's financial condition
since December, 31, 1998. Cash flow from operations and distributions from
equity investments of $35,872 was sufficient to fund dividends and distributions
to minority interests of $31,814 and $1,895 respectively.

         The Company's investing activities included using $60,000 to complete
construction of the America West project, to complete renovations and expansions
of properties leased to Cendant and Orbital Sciences Corporation, to purchase a
50% equity interest in a property leased to CheckFree, to complete construction
of a warehouse located in Indre et Loire, France, leased to an affiliate of the
French postal service, and to advance additional funds for the on-going
build-to-suit project with Federal Express Corporation. The Company used $2,216
for additional capital costs at existing properties. The Company also used
$3,676 to purchase a mortgage receivable in which it has a participating
interest. The mortgagor paid off the loan in November 1999. Current capital
commitments include $1,250 for capital improvements at the hotel property leased
to Livho, Inc. and the two hotel properties operated by the Company, and $28,500
toward the completion of the build-to-suit project leased to Federal Express
Corporation, and $1,781 toward the completion of a build-to-suit project at the
CheckFree property. The completion of the Federal Express build-to-suit is not
expected to occur before the end of the first quarter of 2000. The Company also
paid disposition fees of $1,007 to an affiliate in connection with sales of
properties in 1998.

         In addition to paying dividends to shareholders and distributions to
minority interests, the Company's financing activities included paying scheduled
mortgage principal installments of $3,519, prepaying $9,488 of mortgage debt,
obtaining new fixed rate limited recourse mortgage financing of $75,248
including mortgages on properties leased to the Orbital Sciences Corporation in
Chandler, Arizona, the America West property in Tempe, Arizona, the Gap, Inc.
properties in Erlanger, Kentucky and a portfolio of 48 properties leased to
AutoZone. A portion of the proceeds were used to reduce the amount outstanding
on the line of credit by $33,000 credit between June 30, 1999 and September 30,
1999. A substantial portion of the amount outstanding on the credit line has
been used to fund construction of the Federal Express property, and the Company
anticipates that it will be able to obtain limited recourse mortgage financing
on that property after the completion of construction. Such mortgage proceeds
would be available for reducing the outstanding balance on loans from the line
of credit. The Company also expects that it will use the $11,000 of sales
proceeds from the November 1999 sale of the KSG property to pay down the line of
credit. As of September 30, 1999, the Company has $52,000 of unused capacity
under the line of credit and was in compliance with the financial covenants
relating to the credit agreement on the line of credit.

            FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)

YEAR 2000 ISSUES:
- -----------------

         The "Year 2000 issue" refers to the series of problems that have
resulted or may result from the inability of certain computer software and
embedded processes to properly process dates. This shortcoming could result in
the failure of major systems or miscalculations causing major disruptions to
business operations. The Company has no information technology systems of its
own, but is dependent upon systems maintained by an affiliate of its Advisor,
and certain other third parties including banks and its transfer agent.

         The Company and its affiliates have been evaluating their readiness
relating to Year 2000 issues since 1998. The affiliates' core information
technology systems used in administering the Company's business operations have
been upgraded or replaced, as needed, to become Year 2000 compliant. These
systems include desktop computers, network servers, operating systems and
applications software. A new, compliant, integrated accounting and asset
management system is currently being installed and the accounting component is
currently functional. Compliance of these systems with Year 2000 requirements
has been determined through a combination of internal testing, where feasible,
and vendor representations. Non-core information technology systems have been
reviewed for compliance with Year 2000 requirements. Such systems, although not
critical to the Company's business operations, are expected to be substantially
upgraded or replaced before the end of 1999. Management believes that
substantially all costs related to Year 2000 compliance and remediation have
been incurred.

         The Company has contacted and is evaluating documentation from its
critical third party vendors and suppliers including banks, transfer agents and
telecommunications service providers regarding their Year 2000 compliance. The
responses received have generally been positive although the Company cannot be
assured that such providers have adequately considered the impact of Year 2000
issues on their systems.

         The Company has contacted its tenants regarding Year 2000 readiness and
emphasized the need to address Year 2000 issues. Generally, tenants are
contractually required to maintain their leased properties in good working order
and to make necessary alterations, foreseen or unforeseen, to meet their
contractual obligations. Because of those obligations, the Company believes that
the risks and costs of upgrading systems related to operations of the buildings
and that contain technology affected by Year 2000 issues will generally be
absorbed by tenants rather than the Company. The major risk is that Year 2000
issues have such an adverse effect on the financial condition of a tenant that
its ability to meet its lease obligations, including the timely payment of rent,
is impaired. In such an event, the Company may ultimately incur the costs for
Year 2000 readiness at the affected properties. The potential materiality of any
impact is not known at this time.

         The Company will continue to monitor critical third party vendors and
suppliers to determine its vulnerability to potential disruptions caused by year
2000 issues. Limited scope contingency plans are currently being developed to
address potential disruptions of a temporary nature that may affect the Company.
Because it is not possible to anticipate all of the possible disruptions that
may be caused by Year 2000 events, there can be no assurance that the Company
will not be adversely affected if such disruptions occur.

(in thousands)

             $161,712 of the CDC's long-term debt bears interest at fixed rates,
and therefore the fair value of these instruments is affected by changes in the
market interest rates. The following table presents principal cash flows based
upon expected maturity dates of the debt obligations and the related
weighted-average interest rates by expected maturity dates for the fixed rate
debt. The interest rate on the variable rate debt as of September 30, 1999
ranged from 4.85 % to 10.00%.
