PART I
Item 1. Business.
Registrant is engaged in the business of investing in commercial and
industrial real estate properties which are net leased to commercial and
industrial entities. Registrant was organized as a California limited
partnership on July 24, 1978. The General Partners of Registrant are W.P. Carey
& Co., Inc. (the "Corporate General Partner" or "W.P. Carey") and William Polk
Carey (the "Individual General Partner"). The Corporate General Partner, the
Individual General Partner and/or certain affiliates are also the General
Partners of Corporate Property Associates 2 ("CPA(R):2"), Corporate Property
Associates 3 ("CPA(R):3"), Corporate Property Associates 4, a California limited
partnership ("CPA(R):4"), Corporate Property Associates 5 ("CPA(R):5"),
Corporate Property Associates 6 - a California limited partnership ("CPA(R):6"),
Corporate Property Associates 7 - a California limited partnership ("CPA(R):7"),
Corporate Property Associates 8, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership
("CPA(R):8"), Corporate Property Associates 9, L.P., a Delaware limited
partnership ("CPA(R):9") and the advisor of Corporate Property Associates 10
Incorporated ("CPA(R):10"), Carey Institutional Properties Incorporated
("CIP(TM)") and Corporate Property Associates 12 Incorporated ("CPA(R):12").
Registrant has a management agreement with Carey Corporate Property Management
Company ("Carey Management"), a division of W.P. Carey. According to the terms
of this agreement, Carey Management performs a variety of management services
for Registrant. Registrant has entered into an agreement with Fifth Rock L.P.,
an affiliate, for the purpose of leasing office space. Reference is made to the
Prospectus of Registrant dated January 16, 1979, as supplemented by Supplements
dated January 19, 1979 and April 30, 1979, filed pursuant to Rules 424(b) and
424(c) under the Securities Act of 1933 and such Prospectus and such Supplements
are incorporated herein by reference (said Prospectus, as so supplemented, is
hereinafter called the "Prospectus").
The properties owned by Registrant are described in Item 2. Registrant's
entire net proceeds from the public offering, less distributions of cash from
sales of properties and a working capital reserve have been fully invested in
net leased commercial and industrial real estate since December 11, 1980.
Registrant has only one industry segment which consists of the investment
in and the leasing of industrial and commercial real estate. See Selected
Financial Data in Item 6 for a summary of Registrant's operations. Also see the
material contained in the Prospectus under the heading INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES AND
POLICIES.
All of Registrant's real estate properties are leased to corporate tenants
under long-term net leases. A net lease generally requires tenants to pay
operating expenses relating to the leased properties including maintenance, real
estate taxes, insurance and utilities which under other forms of leases are
often paid by the lessor. Lessees are required to include Registrant as an
additional insured party on all insurance policies relating to the leased
properties. In addition, substantially all of the net leases include
indemnification provisions which require the lessees to indemnify Registrant and
the General Partners for liabilities on all matters related to the leased
properties. Accordingly, Registrant believes that the insurance and indemnity
provided on its behalf by its lessees provides adequate coverage for property
damage and any liability claims which may arise against Registrant's ownership
interests. In addition to the insurance and indemnification provisions of the
leases, Registrant has contingent property and liability insurance for its
properties. To the extent that any lessees are not financially able to satisfy
indemnification obligations which exceed insurance reimbursements, Registrant
may incur the costs necessary to repair property and settle liabilities.
Presently, there are no claims pending for property damages or liability claims.
As described above, lessees retain the obligation for the operating
expenses of their leased properties so that, other than rental income, there are
no significant operating data (i.e. expenses) reportable on Registrant's leased
properties. As discussed in Registrant's Management's Discussion and Analysis in
Item 7, Registrant's leases generally provide for periodic rent increases which
are either stated and negotiated at the inception of the lease or based on
formulas indexed to increases in the Consumer Price Index. During the year ended
December 31, 1995, no material lease terms were modified or amended.
Registrant's leases have initial
-1-
<PAGE>
terms ending between 1996 and 2009 with the majority of the leases providing for
multiple renewal terms at the option of the tenants, of generally 5 or 10 years
per renewal term. Registrant's lease with Varo, Inc. ("Varo") for the 5th Street
property expires in April 1996. As this property is adjacent to a second
property leased to Varo with such lease expiring in September 2002, Registrant
anticipates that the 5th Street lease will be extended. Various leases include
purchase options which are described in Item 2 and are generally exercisable at
the greater of fair market value, as defined in the lease, or a stated amount.
In 1993, Broomfield Tech Center Corporation ("Broomfield") notified Registrant
of its intention to exercise its option to purchase the two properties in
Broomfield, Colorado that it leases from Registrant. The exercise of the option
had been scheduled to occur in May 1994, however, no agreement has been reached
on the purchase price as of December 31, 1995 and currently there are no
negotiations being pursued in connection with the exercise of the option. The
Pre Finish Metals Incorporated ("Pre Finish") lease provides for a purchase
option which may be exercised between June 30, 1998 and June 30, 2003.
Registrant and CPA(R):2 own the Pre Finish property as tenants-in-common with
60% and 40% interests, respectively.
As Registrant's objective has been to invest in properties which are
occupied by a single corporate tenant and subject to long-term net leases with
such lease obligation backed by the credit of the corporate lessee, Registrant's
properties have not been generally subject to the competitive conditions of
local and regional real estate markets. In selecting its real estate
investments, Registrant's strategy was to identify properties which included
operations of material importance to the lessee so that the lessee might be more
likely to extend its lease beyond the initial term or exercise a purchase option
if such option was provided for in the lease agreement. Registrant believes that
this strategy reduces its exposure to the competitive conditions of the local
and regional real estate markets. Because Registrant may be affected by the
financial condition of its lessees rather than the competitive conditions of the
real estate marketplace, Registrant's strategy has been to diversify its
investments among tenants, property types and industries in addition to
achieving geographical diversification.
For the year ended December 31, 1995, revenues from properties occupied by
Pre Finish, The Gap, Inc. and Varo, amounted to 31%, 27% and 19%, respectively,
of the total operating revenues of Registrant. IMO Industries, Inc., Varo's
parent company, is the guarantor of the Varo lease. No other property owned by
Registrant accounted for more than 10% of its total operating revenues during
1995. See Note 9 to the Financial Statements in Item 8.
Registrant voluntarily conducted Phase I environmental reviews of all of
its properties in 1993. Registrant believes, based on the results of such
reviews and Phase II environmental reviews of certain properties in 1994, that
its properties are in substantial compliance with Federal and state
environmental statutes and regulations. Phase II reviews were only performed
based on the recommendations of the Phase I reviews. Portions of certain
properties have been subject to a limited degree of contamination, principally
in connection with either leakage from underground storage tanks or surface
spills from facility activities. In many instances, tenants are actively engaged
in the remediation process and addressing identified conditions. For those
conditions which were identified, Registrant advised its tenants of such
findings and of their obligations to perform any required remediation. Tenants
are generally subject to environmental statutes and regulations regarding the
discharge of hazardous materials and any related remediation obligations. In
addition, Registrant's leases generally require tenants to indemnify Registrant
from all liabilities and losses related to the leased properties. Accordingly,
Management believes that the ultimate resolution of the aforementioned
environmental matters will not have a material adverse effect on Registrant's
financial condition, liquidity or results of operations.
Registrant does not have any employees. The Corporate General Partner of
Registrant together with its affiliates employ twelve individuals who perform
accounting, secretarial and transfer services for Registrant. Gemisys, Inc.
performs certain transfer services for Registrant and The Bank of New York
performs certain banking services for Registrant. In addition, Registrant has
entered into an agreement with Carey Management pursuant to which Carey
Management provides certain management services for Registrant.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Results of Operations
Net income for the year ended December 31, 1995 increased by $734,000, an
increase of 66%, as compared with the prior year. The results for 1995 benefited
from certain nonrecurring items totaling $244,000 and which are classified as
other income in the accompanying financial statements. The results of operations
for 1995 also benefited from a decrease in property and interest expenses, and
an increase in rental revenues. The decrease in property expense was due to
higher costs incurred in 1994 in connection with the assessment of liquidity
alternatives which included environmental reviews and property valuations. The
increase in lease revenues was primarily as a result of an increase in the
variable mortgage interest rate on the debt component of rentals from Pre Finish
Metals Incorporated ("Pre Finish"). The increased debt service payments on the
Pre Finish mortgage loan were directly passed through to the tenant in the form
of a rent adjustment, thereby having no impact on the Partnership's cash flow.
Interest expense decreased as a result of principal payments of $1,417,000 of
mortgage balances. The Partnership's cash flows from operating activities also
increased by 20% as compared with the prior year.
Net income and cash provided from operations for 1994 decreased moderately
as compared with the prior year. The decreases were primarily due to an increase
in property expenses and were partially offset by a decrease in interest
expense. The increase in property expense was a result of costs incurred in
connection with the assessment of the Partnership's liquidity alternatives. The
decrease in interest expense was due to lower average mortgage balances as a
result of the scheduled paydown of $1,305,000 of mortgage principal during 1994.
The Partnership expects the trend of decreasing interest expense to
continue as the Partnership's mortgage balances continue to amortize. In
addition, lease revenues are expected to continue to increase moderately.
Effective January 1996, the equity component of Pre Finish rent has increased by
$36,000 per annum. A scheduled rent increase of $135,000 per annum on one of the
Partnership's leases with IMO Industries, Inc. ("IMO") will be effective in
October 1997. As the Partnership recognizes revenues from this IMO lease on the
straight-line method, rental revenue will not increase for financial reporting
purposes even though operating cash flow will reflect the benefit of the
scheduled increase. The other IMO lease expires in April 1996. As a result of
this expiration, annual lease revenues and cash flow will decrease by $91,400. A
rent increase is also scheduled in 1998 on the Partnership's lease with the The
Gap, Inc. ("The Gap"). In 1995, the Partnership's lease with Unisource
Worldwide, Inc. ("Unisource") had a scheduled decrease. Because this coincided
with the final payment on the mortgage loan collateralized by the Unisource
property, the Partnership's annual cash flow from the Unisource property will
increase by $80,000. The Partnership is actively remarketing the property which
will be vacated by IMO.
Because of the long-term nature of the Partnership's net leases, inflation
and changing prices have not unfavorably affected the Partnership's revenues and
net income. Certain of the Partnership's net leases have increases based on
formulas indexed to increases in the Consumer Price Index ("CPI") and may have
caps on such CPI increases, periodic mandated rent increases or sales overrides
which should increase operating revenues in the future. Future rent increases
may be affected by changes in the method of the calculation of the CPI. Although
there are indications that there may be legislation which considers changes to
the CPI methodology, the Partnership cannot predict the outcome of any proposed
changes relating to the CPI formula.

<PAGE>
Financial Condition
All of the Partnership's properties are leased to corporate tenants under
long-term net leases which generally require tenants to pay all operating
expenses relating to the leased properties. The Partnership depends on
relatively stable or increasing cash flow from its net leases to meet operating
expenses, service its debt, fund distributions and maintain adequate cash
reserves. The Partnership maintains a cash reserve to fund major outlays such as
capital improvements and balloon debt payments. Such expenditures may also be
funded from additional borrowing on the Partnership's real estate portfolio. As
a real estate limited partnership, the Partnership has distributed since its
inception a substantial portion of its cash flow to its partners. The
Partnership's current strategy has been to utilize its funds from operations and
excess cash reserves to fund an increasing rate of distributions to its
partners.
Cash generated from operating activities has generally remained stable or
increased over the past several years. Cash reserves utilized in paying
distributions include cash that was generated from operating and investing
activities in prior periods. Cash flow generated from operating and investing
activities has generally exceeded distributions paid; however, in many
instances, distributions have exceeded earnings. Management gives consideration
to its projections of cash flows and cash provided from operations as well as
the Partnership's current cash balances in determining the distributions paid to
limited partners. Distributions paid to limited partners have exceeded net
income per Limited Partnership Unit in 1991, 1992, 1993 and 1994 by $5.87,
$4.58, $2.45 and $4.00, respectively. This occurs because net income is reduced
by noncash charges, such as depreciation, amortization and property writedowns,
which do not impact cash flow. Distributions exceeded net income per Limited
Partnership Unit in 1995.
In 1995, cash provided from operations of $2,666,000 was sufficient to fund
distributions of $1,314,000 and $1,352,000 of the $1,417,000 of scheduled
mortgage principal amortization. Management believes that there are sufficient
cash reserves to continue to moderately increase the rate of distributions
without adversely affecting the financial condition of the Partnership even if a
portion of such reserves are used to pay mortgage principal.
The Partnership did not have any investing activities during 1995 nor does
it expect to fund any capital expenditures in the near future unless it is
necessary for the remarketing of the IMO property. Since funding improvements to
an IMO property in 1993 from mortgage proceeds encumbering the property, the
Partnership has not funded additional improvements to any of its properties.
The Partnership's financing activities during 1995 consisted of the payment
of distributions and of scheduled mortgage principal payments. The Partnership's
financing activities over the past several years have primarily consisted of
meeting scheduled principal payments on mortgage debt and paying distributions
to partners, which Management believes is consistent with the Partnership's
objectives.
As a result of its stable cash flow and ability to maintain adequate
reserves, the Partnership has no lines of credit or other short-term financing
arrangements. Management believes the Partnership has additional borrowing
capacity based on the unleveraged portion of its real estate portfolio and the
continuing principal reductions of existing mortgage loans. Principal payments
are scheduled to continue at current levels over the next several years. All of
the Partnership's mortgage debt is fully amortizing, with all loans scheduled to
be fully paid between 1998 and 2011. The Partnership may seek to utilize such
borrowing potential in the future to refinance existing mortgage loans.
In January 1996 the Partnership received a commitment from a lender to
refinance an existing mortgage loan on the property leased to the Gap. The
current loan had an outstanding balance of $6,250,000 at December 31, 1995 and
would be fully repaid in 2009. The new loan which, if executed, would be for
$6,400,000 and require a balloon payment of approximately $5,600,000 at the end
of its three year term, would increase annual cash flow by $143,000. In the
event that the existing loan is not refinanced, the outstanding balance will be
approximately $5,400,000 in three years.

Broomfield notified the Partnership of its intention to exercise its option
to purchase the properties it leases from the Partnership. Although exercise of
the option had been scheduled to occur in May 1994, no agreement had been
reached on the purchase price as of December 31, 1995. There are currently no
negotiations being pursued in connection with the exercise of the option. In the
event that an agreement is reached, cash flow would not be significantly
affected as rentals currently exceed debt service requirements on the properties
by $24,000. Beginning June 30, 1998, Pre Finish may exercise an option to
purchase its leased property upon six months notice with such option period
ending in 2003. The option would be exercisable at the greater of fair market
value or $7,873,000 plus 2 1/2% thereof compounded from December 1998 to the
closing date. As the mortgage loan on the Pre Finish properties will have been
satisfied by the June 30, 1998 option date, the Partnership would retain the
full proceeds of a sale. Annual cash flow from the Pre Finish property is
$497,000.
All of the properties are currently leased to corporate tenants, all of
whom are subject to environmental statutes and regulations regarding the
discharge of hazardous materials and any related remediation obligations. The
Partnership normally structures its leases to require tenants to comply with all
laws. In addition, substantially all of the Partnership's net leases include
indemnification provisions which require tenants to indemnify the Partnership
from all liabilities and losses related to their operations at the leased
properties. If the Partnership undertakes to clean up or remediate any of its
leased properties, the General Partners believe that in most cases the
Partnership will be entitled to full reimbursement from tenants for such costs.
Further, in the event that the Partnership either is responsible or becomes
responsible for such costs because of a tenant's failure to fulfill its
obligations the General Partners believe that the ultimate resolution of the
aforementioned environmental matters will not have a material adverse effect on
the Partnership's financial condition, liquidity or results of operations.
In 1994, the Partnership voluntarily conducted Phase II reviews of certain
of its properties based on the results of the Phase I environmental reviews
conducted in 1993. The Partnership believes, based on the results of such
reviews, that its properties are in substantial compliance with Federal and
state environmental statutes and regulations. Portions of certain properties
have been documented as having a limited degree of contamination, principally in
connection with either leakage from underground storage tanks or surface spills
from facility activities. For those conditions which have been recently
identified, the Partnership has advised its tenants of such findings and of
their obligations, if any, to perform any required remediation.
Effective January 1, 1995, the Partnership adopted the provisions of
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121 - Accounting for the
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of ("SFAS
121"). Pursuant to SFAS 121, the Partnership assesses the recoverability of its
real estate assets, including residual interests, based on projections of cash
flows over the life of such assets. In the event that such cash flows are
insufficient, the assets are adjusted to their estimated net realizable value.
The adoption of SFAS 121 did not have a material effect on the Partership's
financial condition or results of operations.

and the related statements of income, partners' capital and cash flows for each
of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1995. We have also audited
the financial statement schedule included on pages 16 to 17 of this Annual
Report. These financial statements and financial statement schedule are the
responsibility of the General Partners. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements and financial statement schedule based on
our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by the
General Partners, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our
opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly,
in all material respects, the financial position of Corporate Property
Associates (a California limited partnership) as of December 31, 1994 and 1995,
and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years
in the period ended December 31, 1995, in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles. In addition, in our opinion, the Schedule of Real Estate
and Accumulated Depreciation as of December 31, 1995, when considered in
relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly, in
all material respects, the financial information required to be included therein
pursuant to Securities and Exchange Commission Regulation S-X Rule 12-28.

NOTES to FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:
Use of Estimates:
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of
assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and
liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the
reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting
period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Real Estate Leased to Others:
Real estate is leased to others on a net lease basis, whereby the
tenant is generally responsible for all operating expenses
relating to the property, including property taxes, insurance,
maintenance, repairs, renewals and improvements.
The Partnership diversifies its real estate investments among
various corporate tenants engaged in different industries and by
property type throughout the United States.
The leases are accounted for under either the direct financing or
operating methods. Such methods are described below:
Direct financing method - Leases accounted for under the
direct financing method are recorded at their net
investment (Note 5). Unearned income is deferred and
amortized to income over the lease terms so as to produce
a constant periodic rate of return on the Partnership's
net investment in the lease.
Operating method - Real estate is recorded at cost,
revenue is recognized as rentals are earned and expenses
(including depreciation) are charged to operations as
incurred.
Effective January 1, 1995, the Partnership adopted the provisions of
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121 - Accounting
for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Long-Lived Assets to
Be Disposed Of ("SFAS 121"). Pursuant to SFAS 121, the
Partnership assesses the recoverability of its real estate
assets, including residual interests, based on projections of
cash flows over the life of such assets. In the event that such
cash flows are insufficient, the assets are adjusted to their
estimated net realizable value. The adoption of SFAS 121 did not
have a material effect on the Partnership's financial condition
or results of operations.
Substantially all of the Partnership's leases provide for either
scheduled rent increases, periodic rent increases based on
formulas indexed to increases in the Consumer Price Index or
sales overrides.
Depreciation:
Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the
estimated useful lives of components of the particular
properties, which range from 5 to 50 years.
Cash Equivalents:
Corporate Property Associates (the "Partnership") considers all
short-term, highly-liquid investments that are both readily
convertible to cash and have a maturity of generally three months
or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents. Items
classified as cash equivalents include commercial paper and money
market funds. Substantially all of the Partnership's cash and
cash equivalents for both years ended December 31, 1994 and 1995
were held in the custody of three financial institutions.

CORPORATE PROPERTY ASSOCIATES
(a California limited partnership)
NOTES to FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, Continued
Other Assets:
Included in other assets are deferred rental income, deferred
charges and marketable equity securities. Deferred rental income
is the aggregate difference for operating method leases between
scheduled rents which vary during the lease term and income
recognized on a straight- line basis. Deferred charges are
primarily costs incurred in connection with mortgage note
refinancing and are amortized on a straight-line basis over the
terms of the mortgages.
The Partnership's marketable equity securities, which consist of
1,948 shares of Storage Technology Corporation common stock at
December 31, 1995, are classified as available-for-sale
securities and are reported at fair market value with the
Partnership's interest in unrealized gains and losses on these
securities reported as a separate component of partners' capital.
Income Taxes:
A partnership is not liable for income taxes as each partner
recognizes his proportionate share of the partnership income or
loss in his tax return. Accordingly, no provision for income
taxes is recognized for financial statement purposes.
2. Partnership Agreement:
The Partnership was organized on July 24, 1978 under the Uniform
Limited Partnership Act of the State of California for the
purpose of engaging in the business of investing in and leasing
industrial and commercial real estate. The Corporate General
Partner purchased 200 limited partnership units in connection
with the Partnership's public offering. The Partnership will
terminate on December 31, 2016, or sooner, in accordance with the
terms of the Amended Agreement of Limited Partnership (the
"Agreement").
The Agreement provides that the General Partners are allocated 1%
(1/10 of 1% to the Individual General Partner, William P. Carey,
and 9/10 of 1% to the Corporate General Partner, W. P. Carey &
Co., Inc. ("W.P. Carey")) and the Limited Partners are allocated
99% of the profits and losses as well as distributions of
Distributable Cash From Operations, as defined in the Agreement.
The partners are also entitled to receive net proceeds from the
sale of the Partnership properties as defined in the Agreement.
An affiliate of the General Partners may be entitled to receive
incentive fees during the liquidation stage of the Partnership. A
division of W.P. Carey is engaged in the real estate brokerage
business and the Partnership may sell properties through the
division and pay subordinated real estate commissions as provided
in the Agreement. The division may ultimately earn up up to
approximately $134,000 of real estate commissions due to the
sales of properties between 1983 and 1991, which amount will be
retained by the Partnership unless the subordination provisions
of the Agreement are satisfied.
3. Transactions with Related Parties:
The Partnership holds a 60% ownership interest in a property as
tenants-in-common with an affiliate which holds the remaining 40%
interest.
Under the Agreement, a division of W.P. Carey is entitled to receive
a property management fee and reimbursement of certain expenses
incurred in connection with the Partnership's operations. General
and administrative expense reimbursements consist primarily of
the actual cost of personnel needed in providing administrative
services necessary for the operation of the Partnership. Property
management fees and general and administrative expense
reimbursements are summarized as follows:

During 1993, 1994 and 1995, fees aggregating $67,655, 97,438 and
$18,338, respectively, were incurred for legal services performed
by a firm in which the Secretary of the Corporate General Partner
and other affiliates is a partner.
The Partnership is a participant in an agreement with W.P. Carey and
certain other affiliates for the purpose of leasing office space
used for the administration of real estate entities and W.P.
Carey and for sharing the associated costs. Pursuant to the terms
of the agreement, the Partnership's share of rental, occupancy
and leasehold improvement costs is based on adjusted gross
revenues, as defined. Net expenses incurred in 1993, 1994 and
1995 were $14,293, $15,615 and $61,243, respectively. The 1995
increase is due, in part, to certain nonrecurring costs which
were incurred in connection with the relocation of the
Partnerships offices.
4. Real Estate Leased to Others Accounted for Under the Operating Method:
The scheduled minimum future rentals, exclusive of renewals, under
noncancellable operating leases amount to approximately
$3,816,000 in 1996, $3,824,000 in 1997, $3,920,000 in both 1998
and 1999, $3,818,000 in 2000 and aggregate approximately
$27,789,000 through 2006.
Contingent rentals were approximately $56,000 in 1995. There were no
contingent rentals in 1993 and 1994.

</TABLE>
10. Disclosures About Fair Value of Financial Instruments:
The carrying amounts of cash, receivables and accounts payable and
accrued expenses approximate fair value because of the short
maturity of these items.
The Partnership's estimate of fair value of mortgage notes payable
is approximately $15,815,000 at December 31, 1995. The fair value
of debt instruments was evaluated using a discounted cash flow
model with discount rates which take into account the credit of
the tenants and interest rate risk.
11. Settlement Income:
Included in other income is $118,784 in cash and securities received
from Storage Technology Corporation ("STC") as the final
distribution from STC's disputed claim reserve which the United
States Bankruptcy Court ordered paid to STC's prepetition
creditors. STC, which had been a tenant of three of the
Partnership's properties, filed a petition of voluntary
bankruptcy in October 1984 and subsequently received approval
from the bankruptcy court in 1987 to terminate its lease. In
connection with its claims against STC, the Partnership had
received $1,161,358 of cash and debentures and 460,434 shares of
STC common stock in 1987. The stock was sold at that time for
$1,420,391.
In May 1995, the Partnership received cash of $29,251 and recorded a
receivable of $44,972 for taxes withheld by the Internal Revenue
Service on the distribution. In addition, the Partnership
received 1,948 shares of STC stock, which were valued at $44,561
based on STC's market value at the time of receipt. As of
December 31, 1995, unrealized appreciation of $1,948 on the
common stock was credited to partners' capital.
12. Environmental Matters:
The Partnership's properties are currently leased to corporate
tenants, all of which are subject to environmental statutes and
regulations regarding the discharge of hazardous materials and
related remediation obligations. The Partnership generally
structures a lease to require the tenant to comply with all laws.
In addition, substantially all of the Partnership's net leases
include provisions which require tenants to indemnify the
Partnership from all liabilities and losses related to their
operations at the leased properties. The costs for remediation
are expected to be performed and paid by the affected tenant. In
the event that the Partnership absorbs a portion of any costs
- 14 -
<PAGE>
CORPORATE PROPERTY ASSOCIATES
(a California limited partnership)
NOTES to FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, Continued
because of a tenant's failure to fulfill its obligations, the
General Partners believe such expenditures will not have a
material adverse effect on the Partnership's financial condition,
liquidity or results of operations.
In 1994, based on the results of Phase I environmental reviews
performed in 1993, the Partnership voluntarily conducted Phase II
environmental reviews on certain of its properties. The
Partnership believes, based on the results of Phase I and Phase
II reviews, that its properties are in substantial compliance
with Federal and state environmental statutes and regulations.
Portions of certain properties have been documented as having a
limited degree of contamination, principally in connection with
either leakage from underground storage tanks or surface spills
from facility activities. For those conditions which were
identified, the Partnership advised the affected tenants of the
