---------------------------------
Dear Unitholder:
B. Wayne Hughes ("Hughes") is offering to purchase up to 6,600 of the
limited partnership units (the "Units") in Public Storage Properties V, Ltd., a
California limited partnership (the "Partnership") at a net cash price per Unit
of $459 (the "Offer"). There will be no commissions or fees paid by you

taxable gain to a tendering Unitholder unless it is a tax-exempt investor.
HUGHES IS A GENERAL PARTNER OF THE PARTNERSHIP.
The Offer is not conditioned upon a minimum number of Units being
tendered. If more than 6,600 Units are validly tendered, Hughes will only
accept 6,600 Units, with such Units purchased on a pro rata basis.
SINCE HUGHES IS A GENERAL PARTNER OF THE PARTNERSHIP, NO RECOMMENDATION
IS MADE TO ANY UNITHOLDER WHETHER OR NOT TO PARTICIPATE IN THE OFFER.
Hughes has enclosed an Offer to Purchase and Letter of Transmittal which
together describe the terms of the Offer. Hughes urges you to read both the
Offer to Purchase and the Letter of Transmittal carefully. If you wish to sell
your Units and receive a net cash price of $459 per Unit, please complete the
enclosed Letter of Transmittal and return it in the enclosed postage-paid
envelope at the address set forth on the back cover of the Offer to Purchase.
The Offer will expire on April 21, 1997 unless extended.

Very truly yours,
/s/ B. Wayne Hughes

. Hughes and an affiliate, Public Storage, Inc. (the "Company" or

in a position to significantly influence all Partnership voting
decisions, could, after the Offer, own as much as 63.5% of the

of the Partnership, a sale of all of the Partnership's properties,
a merger or other extraordinary transaction or removal of the
General Partners (and election of successor general partners).
. The Offer Price is 10% less than the General Partners' estimate of
the liquidation value per Unit.
. The General Partners believe that the Partnership's properties,
like mini-warehouses generally, have increased in value over the
last several years and, although there can be no assurance, may
continue to appreciate in value.
. As alternatives to tendering their Units, Unitholders could retain
their Units until liquidation of the Partnership or seek a private
sale of their Units now or later.
. A tender of Units will result in a substantial taxable gain to a
tendering Unitholder unless it is a tax-exempt investor. See
"Special Considerations."

To the Holders of Limited Partnership Units of

SUMMARY
UNITHOLDERS ARE URGED TO READ CAREFULLY THIS OFFER TO PURCHASE, INCLUDING
THE MATTERS DISCUSSED UNDER "SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS," AND THE ACCOMPANYING
LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL BEFORE DECIDING WHETHER TO TENDER THEIR UNITS.
Certain significant matters discussed in this Offer to Purchase are
summarized below. This summary is not intended to be a complete description and
is qualified in its entirety by reference to the more detailed information
appearing elsewhere in this Offer to Purchase.
THE PARTIES
<TABLE>
<S> <C>
Public Storage Properties V, Ltd. The Partnership, organized in 1979, owns interests in 14 properties. The general partners of
the Partnership are Hughes, the chairman of the board, chief executive officer and
controlling shareholder of the Company, and the Company (the "General Partners"). See
"Background and Purpose of the Offer -- The Partnership" and "-- Relationships." At December
31, 1996, there were approximately 1,614 holders of record owning 44,000 Units. Hughes and
the Company collectively own 21,351 Units in the Partnership (48.5% of the outstanding
Units).
B. Wayne Hughes Hughes is a General Partner of the Partnership and the chairman of the board, chief
executive officer and controlling shareholder of the Company. See "Background and Purpose of
the Offer -- Hughes" and "--Relationships."
Public Storage, Inc. The Company is a real estate investment trust ("REIT"), organized in 1980 as a California
corporation, that has invested primarily in existing mini-warehouses. The Company is one of
the General Partners of the Partnership. See "Background and Purpose of the Offer -- The
Company" and "-- Relationships."
THE OFFER
Number of Units
Subject to Offer 6,600 (approximately 15% of the outstanding Units).
Offer Price $459 per Unit (the "Offer Price").
Expiration, Withdrawal
and Proration Date April 21, 1997, unless extended. See "The Offer."
</TABLE>
PURPOSE OF THE OFFER
Hughes has decided to increase his ownership of the Partnership and has
chosen to accomplish this through a tender offer on terms he believes are
attractive to him. Hughes believes that the acquisition of Units through the
Offer represents a good investment for him. Unitholders who require or desire
liquidity are being offered the opportunity to receive cash for their Units as
an alternative to a possible third party tender offer for 4.9% of the Units.
See "Background and Purpose of the Offer -- Purpose of the Offer."
1
<PAGE>
POSITION OF THE GENERAL PARTNERS WITH RESPECT TO THE OFFER
In view of their conflicts of interest, the General Partners make no
recommendation to any Unitholder to tender or to refrain from tendering Units.
The Offer Price is less than the General Partners' estimate of the liquidation
value per Unit. Accordingly, the Offer may not be advantageous to Unitholders
who do not require or desire liquidity. The General Partners have no present
intention to seek the liquidation of the Partnership. See "Position of the
General Partners With Respect to the Offer." Under the Partnership Agreement, a
liquidation of the Partnership or a removal of the General Partners can be
initiated by limited partners and would require approval by holders of more than
50% of the outstanding Units in the Partnership at a meeting of limited partners
or without a meeting by written consent.
SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS
In their evaluation of the Offer, Unitholders should carefully consider the
following:
. The General Partners have substantial conflicts of interests with
respect to the Offer;
. The Offer Price has been established by Hughes and is not the
result of arms' length negotiations;
. No independent person has been retained to evaluate or render any
opinion with respect to the fairness of the Offer Price;
. After the Offer, Hughes and the Company, which currently own 48.5%
of the outstanding Units and are in a position to significantly
influence all Partnership voting decisions, could own as much as
63.5% of the Units and be in a position to control all Partnership
voting decisions;
. The Offer Price is 10% less than the General Partners' estimate of
the liquidation value per Unit;
. The General Partners believe that the Partnership's properties,
like mini-warehouses generally, have increased in value over the
last several years and may continue to do so, although there can be
no assurance;
. As alternatives to tendering their Units, Unitholders could retain
their Units until liquidation of the Partnership or seek a private
sale of the Units now or later.
. A tender of Units will result in a substantial taxable gain to a
tendering Unitholder unless it is a tax-exempt investor. See
"Special Considerations."
SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS
In their evaluation of the Offer, Unitholders should carefully consider the
following:
Conflicts of Interest with Respect to the Offer. Since the Offer is
-----------------------------------------------
being made by Hughes, a General Partner of the Partnership, Hughes has
substantial conflicts of interest with respect to the Offer. Hughes
has an interest in purchasing Units at the lowest possible price,
whereas Unitholders who desire to sell have an interest in selling
their Units at the highest possible price. Hughes could have proposed
a liquidation of the Partnership, which may have resulted in higher
proceeds to Unitholders, instead of offering to purchase a portion of
the Units.
No Arms' Length Negotiation. The Offer Price has been established by
---------------------------
Hughes, who is a General Partner of the Partnership, and is not the
result of arms' length negotiations between Hughes and the
Partnership. The General Partners have not retained any unaffiliated
person to represent the Unitholders. If an unaffiliated person had
been engaged to represent the Unitholders, the terms of the Offer
might have been different and the unaffiliated person might have been
able to negotiate a higher Offer Price. Hughes, the chief executive
officer of the Company, the largest owner and operator of mini-
warehouses in the United States, believes that
2
<PAGE>
the Offer presents an opportunity to increase, on attractive terms,
his investment in mini-warehouses in which he already has an interest.
Control of all Partnership Voting Decisions by Hughes and the Company.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Hughes and the Company, which currently own 48.5% of the outstanding
Units and are in a position to significantly influence all Partnership
voting decisions, could, after the Offer, own as much as 63.5% of the
Units and be in a position to control all voting decisions with
respect to the Partnership, such as the timing of the liquidation of
the Partnership, a sale of all of the Partnership's properties, a
merger or other extraordinary transaction or removal of the General
Partners (and election of successor general partners). This voting
power could (i) prevent non-tendering Unitholders from taking action
they desired but that Hughes and the Company opposed and (ii) enable
Hughes and the Company to take action desired by the Company but
opposed by non-tendering Unitholders. Conflicts could exist between
the best interests of the Partnership and Hughes and the Company with
regard to the operation, sale or financing of the Partnership's
properties. For example, continued operation of the properties could
be in the interests of Hughes and the Company, while a sale could be
in the interest of the Partnership.
Offer Price Less than General Partners' Estimate of Liquidation Value
---------------------------------------------------------------------
per Unit. The Offer Price is 10% less than the General Partners'
--------
estimate of the liquidation value per Unit. There is no present
intention to liquidate the Partnership. The Offer may not be
advantageous to Unitholders who do not need to sell their Units. No
independent person has been retained to evaluate or render any opinion
with respect to the fairness of the Offer Price.
Possible Increase in Value. The General Partners believe that the
--------------------------
Partnership's properties, like mini-warehouses generally, have
increased in value over the last several years and, although there can
be no assurance, may continue to appreciate in value.
Alternatives to Tendering Units. As alternatives to tendering their
-------------------------------
Units, Unitholders could retain their Units until liquidation of the
Partnership or seek a private sale of their Units now or later. Under
the Partnership Agreement, a liquidation of the Partnership or a
removal of the General Partners can be initiated by limited partners
and would require approval by holders of more than 50% of the
outstanding Units in the Partnership at a meeting of limited partners
or without a meeting by written consent. Meetings of limited partners
may be called at any time by the General Partners or by one or more
limited partners holding 10% or more of the outstanding Units by
delivering written notice of such call to the General Partners.
Taxable Gain. A tender of Units will result in a substantial capital
------------
gain (estimated at $325 per Unit for original Unitholders) to a
tendering Unitholder unless it is a tax-exempt investor. See "The
Offer -- Federal Income Tax Consequences."

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE OF THE OFFER
THE PARTNERSHIP. The Partnership is a California limited partnership which
raised $22,000,000 from the sale of 44,000 Units at $500 per Unit in a
registered public offering of the Units completed in October 1979. All of the
Partnership's net proceeds of that offering have been used to develop mini-
warehouses. Of the 16 properties originally developed by the Partnership, one
was sold in 1982 and one was destroyed by Hurricane Andrew in 1992. The
properties were developed at a total cost of $19,982,000 and were financed in
1989; $24,356,000 in financing proceeds were distributed to the limited and
general partners (approximately $411 per Unit). The Company currently owns 14
mini-warehouses, two of which include a small portion of commercial space.
The general partners of the Partnership are Hughes, the chairman of the
board, chief executive officer and controlling shareholder of the Company, and
the Company. The Partnership's properties are managed by the Company. The
Partnership's properties, like those of the Company, are operated under the
"Public Storage" name.
For certain information on Partnership distributions and on Partnership
properties (including property operations for 1996), see Schedules 1 and 2 to
this Offer to Purchase, respectively, and for financial information on the
Partnership refer to Schedule 3 to this Offer to Purchase and the reports on the
Partnership filed with the Commission, which may be obtained in the manner
described on the inside front cover to this Offer to Purchase.
The following sets forth certain summarized financial information for the
Partnership. This information should be read in conjunction with the
Partnership's property operating results for 1996, the Partnership's Financial
Statements and Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations included as Schedules 2, 3 and 4, respectively, to this
Offer to Purchase. EACH UNITHOLDER SHOULD CAREFULLY REVIEW THE PARTNERSHIP'S
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS OF THE PARTNERSHIP.

(1) Limited Partners' per Unit data is based on the weighted average number of
Units (44,000) outstanding during the year.
(2) Funds from operations is defined as income before loss on early
extinguishment of debt and gains or losses on disposition of real estate,
adjusted as follows: (i) plus depreciation and amortization and (ii) less
distributions (from operations) to minority interests in excess of minority
interest in income. FFO is a supplemental performance measure for equity
REITs used by industry analysts. FFO does not take into consideration
principal payments on debt, capital improvements, distributions and other
obligations of the Partnership. Accordingly, FFO is not a substitute for the
Partnership's net cash provided by operating activities or net income as a
measure of the Partnership's liquidity or operating performance.
(3) Unaudited.
(4) During the first quarter of 1994, the Partnership prepaid approximately
$1,530,000 of mortgage notes payable with insurance proceeds received in
connection with the destruction of a property by Hurricane Andrew.
(5) This per unit amount is unaudited and does not include an allocation of the
valuation amount for unrealized gains/(losses) on marketable securities.
HUGHES. Hughes is the chairman of the board, chief executive officer and
controlling shareholder of the Company. Hughes has a net worth in excess of $10
million.
THE COMPANY. The Company is a REIT, organized in 1980 as a corporation
under the laws of California, that has invested primarily in existing mini-
warehouses. The Company is the largest owner of mini-warehouses in the United
States. The Company has also invested to a much smaller extent in existing
business parks containing commercial and industrial rental space. At September
30, 1996, the Company had equity interests (through direct ownership, as well as
general and limited partnership interests and capital stock interests) in 1,072
properties located in 37 states, consisting of 1,037 mini-warehouse facilities
and 35 business parks. The Company's Common Stock (symbol "PSA") and ten series
of preferred stock are traded on the NYSE. Since November 1995, the Company has
been self-administered and self-managed through a merger with Public Storage
Management, Inc. ("PSMI"). At September 30, 1996, the Company had total assets,
total debt and total shareholders' equity of approximately $2.4 billion, $112.6
million and $2.1 billion, respectively. The Company has an option to purchase
from Hughes Units tendered in the Offer at his cost after 12 months from the
Expiration Date. The Company also has an option to purchase from Hughes his
interests in partnerships (and REITs), including Units in the Partnership.
The Company's principal executive offices are located at 701 Western
Avenue, Suite 200, Glendale, California 91201-2397. Its telephone number is
(818) 244-8080.
Additional information concerning the Company is set forth in the reports
on the Company, which may be obtained from the Company, the Commission, the NYSE
or the PSE, in the manner described on the inside front cover to this Offer to
Purchase.
PRIOR TENDER OFFER. In April 1995, the Company acquired in a tender offer
an aggregate of 17,137 Units at $250 per Unit.
RELATIONSHIPS. The following chart shows the relationships among the
Partnership, the Company and the General Partners. As reflected in the table

<PAGE>
PURPOSE OF THE OFFER. Hughes and the Company have been General Partners of
the Partnership since its organization in 1979. Accordingly, they are familiar
with the operations and prospects of the Partnership. In addition, Hughes and
the Company beneficially own 21,351 of the 44,000 outstanding Units in the
Partnership (48.5%). All of these Units have been acquired since July 1993 for
an aggregate purchase price of $5,205,934 in cash. Substantially all of these
Units were acquired directly from Unitholders, including 17,137 Units acquired
in a tender offer completed in April 1995 at $250 per Unit, and the balance
through secondary firms of the type described below under "Market Prices of
Units -- Information From The Stanger Report Regarding Sales Transactions." For
certain additional information on recent Company purchases of Units, see "Market
Prices of Units -- General."
Hughes has decided to increase his ownership of the Partnership and has
chosen to accomplish this through a tender offer on terms that he believes are
attractive to him. Hughes believes that he will benefit from ownership of Units
acquired in the Offer. Hughes believes that the acquisition of Units through
the Offer represents a good investment for him. Also, Unitholders who require
or desire liquidity are being offered the opportunity to receive cash for their
Units as an alternative to a possible third party tender offer for 4.9% of the
Units.
POSITION OF THE GENERAL PARTNERS WITH RESPECT TO THE OFFER
Since Hughes is a General Partner of the Partnership and there is no
independent general partner, no recommendation is made to any Unitholder to
tender or to refrain from tendering his or her Units. EACH UNITHOLDER MUST MAKE
HIS OR HER OWN DECISION WHETHER OR NOT TO TENDER, BASED UPON A NUMBER OF
FACTORS, INCLUDING THE UNITHOLDER'S FINANCIAL POSITION, INCLUDING NEED OR DESIRE
FOR LIQUIDITY, OTHER FINANCIAL OPPORTUNITIES AND TAX POSITION. The General
Partners believe that the Offer provides all Unitholders who require or desire
liquidity the opportunity to receive cash for their Units without paying the
fees or commissions often paid in connection with transactions through secondary
firms. Also, the Offer is an alternative to a possible third party tender offer
for 4.9% of the Units. See "Market Prices of Units."
The Offer Price is 10% less than the General Partners' estimate of the
liquidation value per Unit set forth under "Determination of Purchase Price."
Also, a tender of Units will result in a substantial taxable gain to a tendering
Unitholder unless it is a tax-exempt investor. Accordingly, the Offer may not be
advantageous to Unitholders who do not require or desire liquidity. However, the
General Partners have no present intention to seek the liquidation of the
Partnership because they believe that it is not an opportune time to sell mini-
warehouses and a sale could have adverse federal and state income tax
consequences to many Unitholders and the General Partners. The Partnership's
properties were originally developed in 1979-80 with the expectation that they
be sold or financed within seven to ten years. The Partnership generated
substantial cash distributions (approximately $598 per Unit, including proceeds
from the sale of a property in 1982) until its properties were financed in 1989
and the financing proceeds distributed (approximately $411 per Unit). Cash
distributions were discontinued in 1991 to enable the Partnership to increase
its cash reserves in connection with restructuring its property debt which
matures in June 1999. In or prior to June 1999 the Partnership would be required
to refinance or sell its properties. The Partnership has sought from time to
time to restructure its property debt. If restructured, the Partnership might be
able to reinstate distributions. There is no assurance that the debt will be
restructured or that distributions will be reinstated.
Although there can be no assurance, based on recently completed
environmental investigations, the Partnership is not aware of any environmental
contamination of its facilities material to its overall business or financial
condition. The Partnership's results of operation have improved over the last
several years and the General Partners believe that the Partnership's properties
have appreciated in value and may continue to do so, as a result of the decrease
in the level of new mini-warehouse construction from the peak levels of new
construction in 1984-1988. There can be no assurance, however, that the
improvement in property operations will continue or that the Partnership's
properties will continue to appreciate in value. EACH UNITHOLDER SHOULD
CAREFULLY REVIEW THE PARTNERSHIP'S FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND MANAGEMENT'S
DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS OF THE
PARTNERSHIP INCLUDED AS SCHEDULES 3 AND 4, RESPECTIVELY, TO THIS OFFER TO
PURCHASE.
While the Offer presents each Unitholder with the opportunity to make an
individual decision on whether or not to dispose of his or her Units, a sale of
the properties and liquidation of the Partnership could result in a higher price
for Unitholders and a higher cost to the Company, a General Partner of the
Partnership, if the properties are sold to the
7
<PAGE>
Company. Under the Partnership Agreement, a liquidation of the Partnership or a
removal of the General Partners can be initiated by limited partners and would
require approval by holders of more than 50% of the outstanding Units at a
meeting or by written consent. See "Special Considerations -- Alternatives to
Tendering Units."
The General Partners will continue after the Offer to receive the same
share of distributions with respect to the Partnership that they received prior
to the Offer.
Since 1994 the Company has entered into merger agreements with 13
affiliated REITs under which the Company has acquired, or is acquiring, the
REITs' properties in transactions under which the REITs' shareholders were, or
are being, afforded, on a tax free basis, the opportunity to convert their
investment in the REITs into an investment in the Company, which generally owns
the same type of properties as the REITs. These merger agreements were
conditioned on approval by the respective REITs' shareholders and satisfied the
obligation in all but one of the REITs' bylaws to present a proposal to its
shareholders for the sale or financing of its properties at a specified time.
The Company has also acquired properties from affiliated private partnerships,
which, unlike the Partnership, had little or no diversification because of the
small number of properties they owned.
The Company intends, from time to time, to acquire additional Units. The
Company has no present plans or intentions to engage in a "going private
transaction" with the Partnership, which is defined generally in the
Commission's rules as a merger or other extraordinary transaction between an
entity and its affiliates that reduces the number of security holders below 300.
The General Partners do not intend any material change in the
Partnership's operations after the Offer. However, the Company may at a later
time offer to acquire the Partnership's properties and the acquisition could
result in liquidation payments to Unitholders higher, or lower, than the Offer
Price. After the Offer, Hughes and the Company could own as much as 63.5% of
the Units and thus control a sale of the properties.

<PAGE>
DETERMINATION OF OFFER PRICE
The Offer Price has been established by Hughes and is not the result of
arm's length negotiations. The Offer Price represents 90% of the General
Partners' estimate of the liquidation value per Unit. The General Partners'
estimate of the liquidation value per Unit is based on their own analysis of the
Partnership.
The General Partners have estimated the liquidation value per Unit ($510)
as follows: (i) computed the estimated value of the operating facilities by
applying to the Partnership's property net operating income (12 months ended
December 31, 1996) before non-recurring charges and after certain property tax
adjustments, as reduced for capital expenditures (3.5% of rental income), a
capitalization rate of 9.75%, (ii) reduced the valuation by estimated sales
expenses of 5%, (iii) added the Partnership's other net assets as of September
30, 1996 (consisting primarily of cash and shares of Company common stock using
a market price of $27 per share), (iv) deducted the Partnership's mortgage debt,
including a prepayment penalty of $2,440,000, (v) allocated the Partnership's
net assets between the limited partners (74.25%) and the General Partners
(25.75%) in accordance with the Partnership Agreement and (vi) divided the
limited partners' share by the number of outstanding Units.
The capitalization rate used by the General Partners in estimating the
liquidation value per Unit is within the range of capitalization rates observed
by them in other sales transactions during 1996. An actual sale of the
Partnership's properties would likely result in a higher or lower liquidation
value per Unit. In arriving at the Offer Price, the estimated liquidation value
per Unit was reduced by 10% to reflect ongoing Partnership administrative
expenses and lack of liquidity of the Units.
THE OFFER
TERMS OF THE OFFER. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth
in this Offer to Purchase and in the related Letter of Transmittal (which
together constitute the "Offer") (including, if the Offer is extended or
amended, the terms of any such extension or amendment), Hughes will accept for
payment and pay for up to 6,600 Units validly tendered on or prior to the
Expiration Date and not withdrawn in accordance with the Offer. The term
"Expiration Date" shall mean 5:00 P.M., New York City time, on April 21, 1997,
unless and until Hughes in his sole discretion shall have extended the period of
time for which the Offer is open, in which event the term "Expiration Date"
shall mean the latest time and date on which the Offer, as so extended by
Hughes, shall expire. Unitholders who tender their Units will not be obligated
to pay partnership transfer fees or commissions.
The Offer Price is $459 per Unit.
The Offer is conditioned on satisfaction of certain conditions as set forth
herein. Hughes reserves the right (but shall not be obligated), in his
reasonable discretion, to waive any or all of such conditions. If, by the
Expiration Date, any or all of such conditions have not been satisfied or
waived, Hughes reserves the right (but shall not be obligated) to (i) decline to
purchase any of the Units tendered and terminate the Offer, (ii) waive all the
unsatisfied conditions and, subject to complying with applicable rules and
regulations of the Commission, purchase all Units validly tendered, (iii) extend
the Offer and, subject to the right of Unitholders to withdraw Units until the
Expiration Date, retain the Units that have been tendered during the period or
periods for which the Offer is extended or (iv) amend the Offer.
The Partnership has provided Hughes the list of Unitholders for the purpose
of disseminating the Offer. Unitholders whose Units are accepted for payment in
the Offer will not receive any cash distributions payable after the Expiration
Date.
Hughes and the Company collectively beneficially own 21,351, or
approximately 48.5%, of the outstanding Units.
PRORATION; ACCEPTANCE FOR PAYMENT AND PAYMENT FOR UNITS. If the number of
Units validly tendered prior to the Expiration Date and not withdrawn is not
more than 6,600, Hughes, upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the
Offer, will accept for payment all Units so tendered.
9
<PAGE>
If the number of Units validly tendered and not withdrawn prior to the
Expiration Date is more than 6,600 Units, Hughes, upon the terms and subject to
the conditions of the Offer, will accept for payment only 6,600 Units, with such
Units purchased on a pro rata basis. If proration would result in a Unitholder
owning less than five Units, Hughes will not accept any Units tendered by such
Unitholder in the Offer.
If proration of tendered Units is required, because of the difficulty of
determining the number of Interests validly tendered and not withdrawn, Hughes
may not be able to announce the final results of such proration until at least
approximately seven business days after the Expiration Date. Subject to Hughes'
obligation under Rule 14e-1(c) under the Exchange Act to pay Unitholders the
Offer Price in respect of Units tendered or return those Units promptly after
the termination or withdrawal of the Offer, Hughes does not intend to pay for
any Units accepted for payment pursuant to the Offer until the final proration
results are known. Notwithstanding any such delay in payment, no interest will
be paid on the Offer Price.
Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Offer (including, if
the Offer is extended or amended, the terms and conditions of any extension or
amendment), Hughes will accept for payment, and will pay for, Units validly
tendered and not withdrawn in accordance with the Offer, as promptly as
practicable following the Expiration Date. In all cases, payment for Units
purchased pursuant to the Offer will be made only after timely receipt by the
Depositary of a properly completed and duly executed Letter of Transmittal and
any other documents required by the Letter of Transmittal.
For purposes of the Offer, Hughes shall be deemed to have accepted for
payment (and thereby purchased) tendered Units when, as and if Hughes gives oral
or written notice to the Depositary of Hughes' acceptance for payment of such
Units pursuant to the Offer. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the
Offer, payment for Units purchased pursuant to the Offer will in all cases be
made by deposit of the purchase price with the Depositary, which will act as
agent for the tendering Unitholders for the purpose of receiving payment from
Hughes and transmitting payment to tendering Unitholders. Under no circumstances
will interest be paid on the purchase price by reason of any delay in making
such payment.
If any tendered Units are not accepted for payment pursuant to the terms
and conditions of the Offer, the Letter of Transmittal with respect to such
Units not purchased will be destroyed by the Depositary. If, for any reason
whatsoever, acceptance for payment of, or payment for, any Units tendered
pursuant to the Offer is delayed or Hughes is unable to accept for payment,
purchase or pay for Units tendered pursuant to the Offer, then, without
prejudice to Hughes' rights under the Offer (but subject to compliance with Rule
14e-1(c) under the Exchange Act), the Depositary may, nevertheless, on behalf of
Hughes, retain tendered Units, subject to any limitations of applicable law, and
such Units may not be withdrawn except to the extent that the tendering
Unitholders are entitled to withdrawal rights as described in the Offer.
If, prior to the Expiration Date, Hughes shall increase the consideration
offered to Unitholders pursuant to the Offer, such increased consideration shall
be paid for all Units accepted for payment pursuant to the Offer, whether or not
such Units were tendered prior to such increase.
Hughes reserves the right to transfer or assign, at any time and from time
to time, in whole or in part, without notice to Unitholders to one or more
affiliates or family members, the right to purchase Units tendered pursuant to
the Offer, but no such transfer or assignment will relieve Hughes of its
obligations under the Offer or prejudice the rights of tendering Unitholders to
receive payment for Units validly tendered and accepted for payment pursuant to
the Offer.
PROCEDURES FOR TENDERING UNITS. For Units to be validly tendered pursuant
to the Offer, a properly completed and duly executed Letter of Transmittal, and
any other documents required by the Letter of Transmittal must be received by
the Depositary at its address set forth on the back cover of this Offer to
Purchase on or prior to the Expiration Date.
In order for a tendering Unitholder to participate in the Offer, Units must
be validly tendered and not withdrawn prior to the Expiration Date, which is
5:00 P.M., New York City time, on April 21, 1997 (unless extended).
10
<PAGE>
The method of delivery of the Letter of Transmittal and all other required
documents is at the option and risk of the tendering Unitholder, and delivery
will be deemed made only when actually received by the Depositary. If delivery
is by mail, registered mail with return receipt requested, properly insured, is
recommended. In all cases, sufficient time should be allowed to ensure timely
delivery.
By executing a Letter of Transmittal as set forth above, a tendering
Unitholder irrevocably appoints Hughes' designees as such Unitholder's proxies,
in the manner set forth in the Letter of Transmittal, each with full power of
substitution, to the full extent of such Unitholder's rights with respect to the
Units tendered by such Unitholder and accepted for payment by Hughes. Such
appointment will be effective when, and only to the extent that, Hughes accepts
such Units for payment. Upon such acceptance for payment, (i) all prior proxies
given by such Unitholder with respect to such Units will, without further
action, be revoked, (ii) no subsequent proxies may be given (and if given will
not be effective) and (iii) the designees of Hughes will, with respect to such
Units, be empowered to exercise all voting and other rights of such Unitholder
as they in their sole discretion may deem proper at any meeting of Unitholders,
by written consent or otherwise. Hughes reserves the right to require that, in
order for Units to be deemed validly tendered, immediately upon Hughes'
acceptance for payment of such Units, Hughes must be able to exercise full
voting and other rights as a record and beneficial owner with respect to such
Units, including voting at any meeting of Unitholders or action by written
consent.
All questions as to the validity, form, eligibility (including time of
receipt) and acceptance for payment of any tender of Units pursuant to the
procedures described above will be determined by Hughes, in his sole discretion,
which determination shall be final and binding. Hughes reserves the absolute
right to reject any or all tenders if not in proper form or if the acceptance
of, or payment for, the Units tendered may, in the opinion of Hughes' counsel,
be unlawful. Hughes also reserves the right to waive any defect or irregularity
in any tender with respect to any particular Units of any particular Unitholder,
and Hughes' interpretation of the terms and conditions of the Offer (including
the Letter of Transmittal and the Instructions thereto) will be final and
binding. Neither Hughes, the Depositary nor any other person will be under any
duty to give notification of any defects or irregularities in the tender of any
Units or will incur any liability for failure to give any such notification.
A tender of Units pursuant to any of the procedures described above will
constitute a binding agreement between the tendering Unitholder and Hughes upon
the terms and subject to the conditions of the Offer, including the tendering
Unitholder's representation and warranty that such Unitholder owns the Units
being tendered.
WITHDRAWAL RIGHTS. Except as otherwise provided in the Offer, all tenders
of Units pursuant to the Offer are irrevocable, provided that Units tendered
pursuant to the Offer may be withdrawn at any time prior to the Expiration Date
and, unless theretofore accepted for payment as provided in this Offer to
Purchase, may also be withdrawn at any time after May 20, 1997.
For withdrawal to be effective, a written or facsimile transmission notice
of withdrawal must be timely received by the Depositary at the address set forth
on the back cover of this Offer to Purchase. Any such notice of withdrawal must
specify the name of the person who tendered the Units to be withdrawn and must
be signed by the person(s) who signed the Letter of Transmittal in the same
manner as the Letter of Transmittal was signed. The signature(s) on the notice
of withdrawal must be guaranteed by an eligible guarantor institution (a bank,
stockbroker, savings and loan association or credit union with membership in an
approved signature guarantee medallion program).
If purchase of, or payment for, Units is delayed for any reason or if
Hughes is unable to purchase or pay for Units for any reason, without prejudice
to Hughes' rights under the Offer, tendered Units may be retained by the
Depositary on behalf of Hughes and may not be withdrawn except to the extent
that tendering Unitholders are entitled to withdrawal rights as set forth
herein, subject to Rule 14e-1(c) under the Exchange Act, which provides that no
person who makes a tender offer shall fail to pay the consideration offered or
return the securities deposited by or on behalf of security holders promptly
after the termination or withdrawal of the tender offer.
All questions as to the form and validity (including timeliness of receipt)
of notices of withdrawal will be determined by Hughes, in his sole discretion,
which determination shall be final and binding. Neither Hughes, the
11
<PAGE>
Depositary, nor any other person will be under any duty to give notification of
any defects or irregularities in any notice of withdrawal or will incur any
liability for failure to give any such notification.
Any Units properly withdrawn will be deemed not to be validly tendered for
purposes of the Offer. Withdrawn Units may be re-tendered, however, by
following any of the procedures described in the Offer at any time prior to the
Expiration Date.
EXTENSION OF TENDER PERIOD; TERMINATION AND AMENDMENT. Hughes expressly
reserves the right, in his sole discretion, at any time and from time to time,
(i) to extend the period of time during which the Offer is open and thereby
delay acceptance for payment of, and the payment for, any Units by giving oral
or written notice of such extension to the Depositary (during any such extension
all Units previously tendered and not withdrawn will remain subject to the
Offer), (ii) to terminate the Offer and not accept for payment any Units not
theretofore accepted for payment or paid for, by giving oral or written notice
of such termination to the Depositary, (iii) upon the occurrence of any of the
conditions specified in the Offer, delay the acceptance for payment of, or
payment for, any Units not theretofore accepted for payment or paid for, by
giving oral or written notice of such termination or delay to the Depositary and
(iv) to amend the Offer in any respect (including, without limitation, by
increasing or decreasing the consideration offered or the number of Units being
sought in the Offer or both) by giving oral or written notice of such amendment
to the Depositary. Any extension, termination or amendment will be followed as
promptly as practicable by public announcement, the announcement in the case of
an extension to be issued no later than 9:00 a.m., Eastern time, on the next
business day after the previously scheduled Expiration Date, in accordance with
the public announcement requirement of Rule 14d-4(c) under the Exchange Act.
Without limiting the manner in which Hughes may choose to make any public
announcement, except as provided by applicable law (including Rule 14d-4(c)
under the Exchange Act), Hughes will have no obligation to publish, advertise or
otherwise communicate any such public announcement, other than by issuing a
release to the Dow Jones News Service. Hughes may also be required by
applicable law to disseminate to Unitholders certain information concerning the
extensions of the Offer and any material changes in the terms of the Offer.
If Hughes extends the Offer, or if Hughes (whether before or after his
acceptance for payment of Units) is delayed in his payment for Units or is
unable to pay for Units pursuant to the Offer for any reason, then, without
prejudice to Hughes' rights under the Offer, the Depositary may retain tendered
Units on behalf of Hughes, and such Units may not be withdrawn except to the
extent tendering Unitholders are entitled to withdrawal rights as described in
the Offer. However, the ability of Hughes to delay payment for Units that
Hughes has accepted for payment is limited by Rule 14e-1(c) under the Exchange
Act, which requires that Hughes pay the consideration offered or return the
securities deposited by or on behalf of holders of securities promptly after the
termination or withdrawal of the Offer.
If Hughes makes a material change in the terms of the Offer or the
information concerning the Offer or waives a material condition of the Offer,
Hughes will extend the Offer to comply with the Commission's interpretations of
Rules 14d-4(c) and 14d-6(d) under the Exchange Act. The minimum period during
which an offer must remain open following a material change in the terms of the
offer or information concerning the offer, other than a change in price,
percentage of securities sought or the soliciting agent's fee, will depend upon
the facts and circumstances, including the relative materiality of the change in
the terms or information. (In the Commission's view, an offer should remain open
for a minimum of five business days from the date such material change is first
published, sent or given to security holders.) With respect to a change in
price, percentage of securities sought or the soliciting agent's fee, however, a
minimum ten business day period is required to allow for adequate dissemination
to security holders and for investor response.
Following the termination of the Offer, Hughes may make an offer for Units
not tendered in this Offer, which may be on terms similar or different from
those described in the Offer. There is no assurance that, following the
Expiration Date, Hughes will make another offer for Units not tendered in the
Offer.
SOURCE OF FUNDS. Hughes expects that approximately $3,126,000 is necessary
to consummate the Offer, including related fees and expenses, assuming all 6,600
Units are tendered and accepted for payment. These funds will be available from
Hughes' available funds or from borrowings under Hughes' $40,000,000 credit
facility with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association. The credit facility is
secured by marketable securities. The credit facility bears interest, at
Hughes' option, either at the prime rate or LIBOR plus 1 1/2. Hughes intends to
repay amounts borrowed under this facility from his cash flow.

CONDITIONS OF THE OFFER. The obligation of Hughes to complete the purchase
of tendered Units is subject to each and all of the following conditions which,
in the reasonable judgment of Hughes with respect to each and every matter
referred to below and regardless of the circumstances (including any action or
inaction by Hughes) giving rise to any such condition, makes it inadvisable to
proceed with the Offer or with such acceptance for purchase:
(a) There shall not be threatened, instituted or pending any action or
proceeding before any domestic or foreign court or governmental agency or
other regulatory or administrative agency or commission (i) challenging the
acquisition by Hughes of the Units, seeking to restrain or prohibit the
making or consummation of the Offer, seeking to obtain any material damages
or otherwise directly or indirectly relating to the transactions
contemplated by the Offer, (ii) seeking to prohibit or restrict Hughes'
ownership or operation of any material portion of Hughes' business or
assets, or to compel Hughes to dispose of or hold separate all or any
material portion of his business or assets as a result of the Offer, (iii)
seeking to make the purchase of, or payment for, some or all of the Units
illegal, (iv) resulting in a delay in the ability of Hughes to accept for
payment or pay for some or all of the Units, (v) imposing material
limitations on the ability of Hughes effectively to acquire or hold or to
exercise full rights of ownership of the Units, including, without
limitation, the right to vote the Units purchased by Hughes on all matters
properly presented to limited partners of the Partnership, (vi) which, in
the reasonable judgment of Hughes, could materially and adversely affect
the treatment of the Offer for federal income tax purposes, (vii) which
otherwise is reasonably likely to materially adversely affect the
Partnership or the value of the Units or (viii) which imposes any material
condition unacceptable to Hughes;
(b) No statute, rule, regulation or order shall be enacted,
promulgated, entered or deemed applicable to the Offer, no legislation
shall be pending and no other action shall have been taken, proposed or
threatened by any domestic government or governmental authority or by any
court, domestic or foreign, which, in the reasonable judgment of Hughes, is
likely, directly or indirectly, to result in any of the consequences
referred to in paragraph (a) above; and
(c) There shall not have occurred (i) any general suspension of, or
limitation on prices for, trading in securities on the NYSE, (ii) the
declaration of a banking moratorium or any suspension of payments in
respect of banks in the United States, (iii) the commencement of a war,
armed hostilities or other international or national calamity materially
affecting the United States, (iv) any limitation by any governmental
authority or any other event which is reasonably likely to affect the
extension of credit by banks or other leading institutions in the United
States, (v) any material decline in security prices on the NYSE or (vi) in
the case of any of the foregoing existing at the time of the Offer, any
material worsening thereof.
The foregoing conditions are for the reasonable benefit of Hughes. The
conditions may be waived by Hughes at any time and from time to time in his
reasonable discretion. Any determination by Hughes will be final and binding on
all parties. If any such conditions are waived, the Offer will remain open for
a minimum of five business days from the date notice of such waiver is first
published, sent or given to Unitholders.
FEES AND EXPENSES. Hughes has retained The First National Bank of Boston
to act as Depositary in connection with the Offer. Hughes will pay the
Depositary reasonable and customary compensation for its services. Hughes will
indemnify the Depositary against certain liabilities and expenses in connection
therewith, including liabilities under the federal securities laws. Hughes will
also pay all costs and expenses of printing and mailing the Offer.
Assuming all 6,600 Units are tendered and accepted for payment, expenses of
the Offer (exclusive of the purchase price of the Units) are estimated at
$97,000, including: legal and accounting fees and expenses ($10,000), printing
($4,700), filing fees ($600), Depositary Agent fees and expenses ($8,000),
Soliciting Agent fees ($61,000), distribution of Offer materials ($5,000) and
miscellaneous ($7,700).
SOLICITING AGENT. Hughes has retained Christopher Weil & Company, Inc., a
registered broker dealer, to answer questions and solicit responses to this
transaction and will pay Christopher Weil & Company, Inc. 2% of the Offer Price
for each Unit tendered and accepted by Hughes. In addition, Christopher Weil &
Company, Inc. will be indemnified against certain liabilities, including
liabilities under the federal securities laws. Christopher Weil & Company, Inc.
has
13
<PAGE>
acted in a similar capacity in connection with other tender and exchange offers
by the Company and in soliciting consents from the limited partners of other
partnerships sponsored by the General Partners and their affiliates.
DISSENTERS' RIGHTS AND INVESTOR LISTS. Neither the Partnership Agreement
nor California law provides any right for Unitholders to have their respective
Units appraised or redeemed in connection with or as a result of the Offer.
Each Unitholder has the opportunity to make an individual decision on whether or
not to tender in the Offer. Under the Partnership Agreement, any Unitholder is
entitled (i) upon request, to obtain a list of the limited partners in the
Partnership, at the expense of the Partnership and (ii) upon reasonable request,
to inspect and copy, at his or her expense and during normal business hours, the
books and records of the Partnership.
FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES. The sale of Units for cash will be
treated for federal income tax purposes as a taxable sale of the Units
purchased. The particular tax consequences of the tender for a Unitholder will
depend upon a number of factors related to that Unitholder's tax situation,
including the Unitholder's tax basis in his or her Units, and whether the
Unitholder will be able to utilize currently any capital losses that result from
the sale in the Offer. The General Partners anticipate that Unitholders who
acquired their Units in an early closing of the original offering and who sell
their Units in the Offer will generally recognize a capital gain of
approximately $325 per Unit as a result of the sale (assuming a sale effective
at the beginning of the second quarter of 1997 based on an estimate of the
Partnership's 1996 and 1997 income). The tax impact, however, could be quite
different for Unitholders who acquired their Units at a different time. To the
extent a Unitholder recognizes a capital loss on the sale of all Units, such
loss can be applied to offset capital gains from other sources. (Losses from a
sale of less than all of the Units that a Unitholder is deemed to own may be
subject to limitation under the passive loss rules.) In addition, individuals
may use such capital losses in excess of capital gains to offset up to $3,000 of
ordinary income in any single year ($1,500 for a married individual filing a
separate return). Any such capital losses that are not used currently can be
carried forward and used in subsequent years. A corporation's capital losses in
excess of current capital gains generally may be carried back three years, with
any remaining unused portion available to be carried forward for five years.
BECAUSE THE INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES OF A TENDER OF UNITS WILL NOT BE THE SAME
FOR ALL UNITHOLDERS, UNITHOLDERS CONSIDERING TENDERING THEIR UNITS SHOULD
CONSULT WITH THEIR OWN TAX ADVISORS WITH SPECIFIC REFERENCE TO THEIR OWN TAX
SITUATIONS.
MISCELLANEOUS. THE OFFER IS BEING MADE TO ALL UNITHOLDERS, PROVIDED,
HOWEVER, THAT THE OFFER IS NOT BEING MADE TO (NOR WILL TENDERS BE ACCEPTED FROM
OR ON BEHALF OF) UNITHOLDERS IN ANY JURISDICTION IN WHICH THE MAKING OF THE
OFFER OR THE ACCEPTANCE THEREOF WOULD NOT BE IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE LAWS OF SUCH
JURISDICTION. HUGHES IS NOT AWARE OF ANY JURISDICTION WITHIN THE UNITED STATES
IN WHICH THE MAKING OF THE OFFER OR THE ACCEPTANCE THEREOF WOULD BE ILLEGAL.
HOWEVER, IF ANY SUCH JURISDICTION EXISTS, HUGHES MAY IN HIS DISCRETION TAKE SUCH
ACTIONS AS IT MAY DEEM NECESSARY TO MAKE THE OFFER IN SUCH JURISDICTION.
FOLLOWING THE TERMINATION OF THE OFFER, HUGHES AND/OR THE COMPANY MAY MAKE
AN OFFER FOR UNITS NOT TENDERED IN THIS OFFER, WHICH MAY BE ON TERMS SIMILAR OR
DIFFERENT FROM THOSE DESCRIBED IN THE OFFER. THERE IS NO ASSURANCE THAT,
FOLLOWING THE EXPIRATION DATE, HUGHES AND/OR THE COMPANY WILL MAKE ANOTHER OFFER
FOR UNITS NOT TENDERED IN THE OFFER.
EFFECTS OF OFFER ON NON-TENDERING UNITHOLDERS
CONTROL OF THE PARTNERSHIP. After the Offer, Hughes and the Company will
be in a position to control the vote of the limited partners. See "Special
Considerations -- Control of all Partnership Voting Decisions by Hughes and the
Company."
EFFECT ON TRADING MARKET. There is no established public trading market
for the Units, and, therefore, a reduction in the number of Unitholders should
not materially further restrict the Unitholders' ability to find purchasers for
their Units. See "Market Prices of Units" for certain limited information
regarding secondary sales of the Units.
14
<PAGE>
PARTNERSHIP STATUS. The General Partners believe the purchase of Units by
Hughes, as proposed, should not adversely affect the issue of whether the
Partnership is classified as a partnership for federal income tax purposes.
PARTNERSHIP BUSINESS. The Offer will not materially affect the operation
of the properties owned by the Partnership since the properties will continue to
be managed by the Company.
Although after the Offer Hughes and/or the Company may acquire additional
Units thereby increasing its ownership position in the Partnership, the General
Partners have no present plans or intentions with respect to the Partnership for
a liquidation, a merger, a sale or purchase of material assets or borrowings and
no Partnership assets have been identified for sale or financing.
15
<PAGE>
MARKET PRICES OF UNITS
GENERAL. The Units are not listed on any national securities exchange or
quoted in the over the counter market, and there is no established public
trading market for the Units. Secondary sales activity for the Units has been
limited and sporadic. The General Partners monitor transfers of the Units (i)
because the admission of the transferee as a substitute limited partner
requires the consent of the General Partners under the Partnership Agreement,
(ii) in order to track compliance with safe harbor provisions to avoid treatment
as a "publicly traded partnership" for tax purposes and (iii) because the
General Partners have purchased Units. However, the General Partners do not
have information regarding the prices at which all secondary sales transactions
in the Units have been effectuated. Various organizations offer to purchase and
sell limited partnership interests (such as the Units) in secondary sales
transactions. Various publications such as The Stanger Report summarize and
report information (on a monthly, bimonthly or less frequent basis) regarding
secondary sales transactions in limited partnership interests (including the
Units), including the prices at which such secondary sales transactions are
effectuated.
The General Partners estimate, based solely on the transfer records of the
Partnership and the Partnership's transfer agent, that the number of Units
transferred in sales transactions (i.e., excluding transactions believed to be
between related parties, family members or the same beneficial owner) was as
follows:
<TABLE>

$70.00 per Unit (January 1), 30 Units at $110.00 per Unit (January 1), 75
Units at $154.00 per Unit (January 1), 5 Units at $110.00 per Unit (April

(3) In 1995, the Company purchased 2,626 Units in 64 transactions: 10 Units at
$135.00 per Unit (January 1), 55 Units at $154.00 per Unit (January 1), 20
Units at $135.00 per Unit (April 1), 20 Units at $140.00 per Unit (April 1),
10 Units at $250.00 per Unit (April 1), 2,161 Units at $250.00 per Unit
(July 1) and 350 Units at $250.00 per Unit (October 1).
(4) In 1995, the Company accepted for purchase 17,137 Units tendered in response
to the Company's cash tender offer at $250.00 per Unit.
(5) On January 1, 1996, the Company purchased 55 Units in five transactions at
$250.00 per Unit.
(6) On April 1, 1996, the Company purchased 36 Units in three transactions at

(7) On July 1, 1996, the Company purchased 150 Units in eight transactions: 5
Units at $285.00 per Unit and 145 Units at $250.00 per Unit.
(8) On October 1, 1996, Hughes purchased 40 Units in five transactions: 10
Units at $250.00 per Unit, 5 Units at $275.00 per Unit and 25 Units at
$295.00 per Unit.
On January 1, 1997, the Company purchased 90 Units in six transactions at
$275.00 per Unit.
All of the purchases of Units described in notes (2), (3), (5), (6), (7)
and (8) above were acquired directly from Unitholders or through secondary firms
of the type described below under "Information From The Stanger Report Regarding
Sales Transactions."

(1) The original purchase price was $500 per Unit. The General Partners do not
know whether the transaction prices shown are before or after commissions.
(2) The General Partners do not know the number of transactions.
(3) Based on information provided by Stanger.
The information from The Stanger Report contained above is provided without
verification by the General Partners and is subject to the following
qualifications in The Stanger Report: "Limited partnerships are designed as
illiquid, long-term investments. Secondary-market prices generally do not
reflect the current value of partnership assets, nor are they indicative of
total return since prior cash distributions and tax benefits received by the
original investor are not reflected in the price. Transaction prices are not
verified by Robert A. Stanger & Co."
INFORMATION FROM THE CHICAGO PARTNERSHIP BOARD REGARDING SALES
TRANSACTIONS. According to the Chicago Partnership Board, Inc. ("CPB"), an
auctioneer for limited partnership interests, the amounts paid by buyers for
Units in transactions executed by CPB ranged from $222.00 to $355.14 per Unit
during the period February 21, 1996 to February 21, 1997 with an ending
transaction price of $355.14.
According to CPB, all prices are amounts paid by buyers and, due to
transaction costs, mark-ups and general partner imposed transfer fees, sellers
typically receive a lesser amount.
No assurances can be given that the above prices represent the true value
of Units.

CERTAIN RELATED TRANSACTIONS
GENERAL PARTNERS' INTEREST. The Company and Hughes are General Partners of
the Partnership. The Company receives incentive distributions equal to 25% of
the Partnership's cash available for distribution (operating cash flow, plus net
proceeds from sale or financing of property). The General Partners also have a
1% interest in the Partnership in respect of their capital contributions and
participate in Partnership distributions in proportion to their interest in the
Partnership.
PROPERTY MANAGEMENT. The Partnership's properties are managed by the
Company pursuant to management agreements under which the property managers
receive 6% of gross revenues from operations of the mini-warehouses properties.
In 1993, 1994 and 1995 (exclusive of the prepayment described below), the
property managers received $345,000, $372,000 and $371,000, respectively, from
the Partnership.
In November 1995, the Management Agreement was amended to provide that upon
demand from PSI or PSMI made prior to December 15, 1995, the Partnership agreed
to prepay (within 15 days after such demand) up to 12 months of management fees
(based on the management fees for the comparable period during the calendar year
immediately preceding such prepayment) discounted at the rate of 14% per year to
compensate for early payment. In December 1995, the Partnership prepaid, to
PSI, eight months of 1996 management fees at a cost of $229,000.
LIMITED PARTNER INTERESTS. Of the 44,000 outstanding Units, 21,351 (48.5%)
are beneficially owned by Hughes and the Company. All of these Units have been
acquired since July 1993 for an aggregate purchase price of $5,205,934 in cash.
Substantially all of these Units were acquired directly from Unitholders,
including Units acquired in a tender offer completed in April 1995, and the
balance through secondary firms of the type described above under "Market Prices
of Units -- Information From The Stanger Report Regarding Sales Transactions."
An executive officer of the Company beneficially owns five Units. Hughes and the
Company participate in Partnership distributions on the same terms as other
Unitholders in respect of Units owned by Hughes and the Company. See "Background
and Purpose of the Offer -- Relationships."
No person has been authorized to give any information or to make any
representation on behalf of the Company not contained herein or in the Letter of
Transmittal and, if given or made, such information or representation must not
be relied upon as having been authorized.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS
The Partners
Public Storage Properties V, Ltd.
We have audited the balance sheets of Public Storage Properties V, Ltd., a
California limited partnership, as of December 31, 1995 and 1994 and the related
statements of income, partners' equity, and cash flows for each of the three
years in the period ended December 31, 1995. These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Partnership's management. Our responsibility is to express
an opinion on these financial statements 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
management, 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 Public Storage Properties V,
Ltd. at December 31, 1995 and 1994, 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.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 1995
1. Description of Partnership
--------------------------
Public Storage Properties V, Ltd. (the "Partnership") was formed with
the proceeds of a public offering. The general partners in the Partnership
are Public Storage, Inc., formerly known as Storage Equities, Inc. and B.
Wayne Hughes ("Hughes"). In 1995, there were a series of mergers among
Public Storage Management, Inc. (which was the Partnership's mini-warehouse
property operator), Public Storage, Inc. (which was one of the
Partnership's general partners) and their affiliates (collectively,
"PSMI"), culminating in the November 16, 1995 merger of PSMI into Storage
Equities, Inc., a real estate investment trust listed on the New York Stock
Exchange. In the PSMI merger, Storage Equities, Inc.'s name was changed to
Public Storage, Inc. ("PSI") and PSI became a co-general partner of the
Partnership and the operator of the Partnership's mini-warehouse
properties.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Partnership Matters
------------------------------------------------------------------
Basis of Presentation
---------------------
Certain prior years amounts have been reclassified to conform with the
1995 presentation.
Real Estate Facilities
----------------------
Cost of land includes appraisal fees and legal fees related to
acquisition and closing costs. Buildings and equipment reflect costs
incurred through December 31, 1995 and 1994 to develop mini-warehouses and
to a lesser extent, a business park facility. The mini-warehouse
facilities provide self-service storage spaces for lease, usually on a
month-to-month basis, to the general public. The buildings and equipment
are depreciated on the straight-line basis over estimated useful lives of
25 and 5 years, respectively.
In August 1992, the buildings at a mini-warehouse facility located in
Miami, Florida were completely destroyed by Hurricane Andrew. The
Partnership received insurance proceeds totaling $2,881,000, which included
an amount for the replacement cost of the destroyed buildings as well as
for business interruption. In 1993, the General Partners decided that it
would be more beneficial to the Partnership, given the condition of the
market area of the mini-warehouse, to cease operations at this location,
and, therefore, decided not to reconstruct the buildings. Accordingly, in
1993, the Partnership reduced real estate facilities by the net book value
of the destroyed buildings, resulting in a gain of $1,369,000. The General
Partners are attempting to sell the related land, and believe that the net
realizable value of the land approximates its book value of $593,000. In
December 1995, the Partnership entered into an option agreement with a
buyer to sell the land for $850,000.
Included in other income are $109,000, $87,000, and $166,000 of
business interruption proceeds (net of certain costs and expenses of
maintaining the property) for the years ended December 31, 1995, 1994, and
1993, respectively.
Allocation of Net Income
------------------------
The general partners' share of net income consists of amounts
attributable to their 1% capital contribution and an additional percentage
of cash flow (as defined) which relates to the general partners' share of
cash distributions as set forth in the Partnership Agreement (Note 4). All
remaining net income is allocated to the limited partners.
Per unit data is based on the weighted average number of the limited
partnership units (44,000) outstanding during the period.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
-------------------------
For financial statement purposes, the Partnership considers all highly
liquid investments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be
cash equivalents.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Partnership Matters
------------------------------------------------------------------
(Continued)
- -----------
Marketable Securities
---------------------
Marketable securities at December 31, 1995 and 1994 consist of 440,584
(which includes the November 1995 purchase) and 418,128 shares of common
stock of PSI, respectively. In November 1995, the Partnership purchased an
additional 22,456 shares of PSI common stock at a cost of $398,000. The
Partnership has designated its portfolio of marketable securities as being
available for sale. Accordingly, at December 31, 1995 and 1994, the
Partnership has recorded the marketable securities at fair value, based
upon the closing quoted price of the securities at December 31, 1995 and
1994, and has recorded a corresponding unrealized gain totaling $1,962,000
and $1,126,000, respectively, as a credit to Partnership equity. The
Partnership recognized dividends of $373,000, $277,000, and $131,000 for
the years ended December 31, 1995, 1994, and 1993, respectively.
Other Assets
------------
Included in other assets is deferred financing costs of $279,000
($361,000 at December 31, 1994). Such balance is being amortized in
interest using the straight-line basis over the life of the loan.
Environmental Cost
------------------
Substantially all of the Partnership's facilities were acquired prior
to the time that it was customary to conduct environmental investigations
in connection with property acquisitions. During 1995, the Partnership
completed environmental assessments of its properties to evaluate the
environmental condition of, and potential environmental liabilities of such
properties. These assessments were performed by an independent
environmental consulting firm. Based on the assessments, the Partnership
has expensed, as of December 31, 1995, an estimated $27,000 for known
environmental remediation requirements. Although there can be no
assurance, the Partnership is not aware of any environmental contamination
of any of its property sites which individually or in the aggregate would
be material to the Partnership's overall business, financial condition, or
results of operations.
3. Cash Distributions
------------------
The Partnership Agreement requires that cash available for
distribution (cash flow from all sources less cash necessary for any
obligations or capital improvement needs) be distributed at least
quarterly. Cash distributions have been suspended since 1991.
4. Partners' Equity
----------------
The general partners have a 1% interest in the Partnership. In
addition, the general partners had an 8% interest in cash distributions
attributable to operations (exclusive of distributions attributable to sale
and financing proceeds) until the limited partners recovered all of their
investment. Thereafter, the general partners have a 25% interest in all
cash distributions (including sale and financing proceeds). During 1987,
the limited partners recovered all of their initial investment. All
subsequent distributions are being made 25.75% (including the 1% interest)
to the general partners and 74.25% to the limited partners. Transfers of
equity are made periodically to conform the partners' equity accounts to
the provisions of the Partnership Agreement. These transfers have no
effect on results of operations or distributions to partners.
The financing of the properties (Note 7) provided the Partnership with
cash for a special distribution without affecting the Partnership's taxable
income. Proceeds of approximately $24,356,000 were distributed to the
partners in June 1989 resulting in a deficit in the limited and general
partners' equity accounts.

5. Related Party Transactions
--------------------------
The Partnership has Management Agreements with PSI (as successor-in-
interest to PSMI) and Public Storage Commercial Properties Group, Inc.
(PSCP). Under the terms of the agreements, PSI operates the mini-warehouse
facilities and PSCP operates the business park facility for fees equal to
6% and 5%, respectively, of the facilities' monthly gross revenue (as
defined). Hughes and members of his family (the "Hughes Family") are the
major shareholders of PSI. PSI has a 95% economic interest and the Hughes
family has a 5% economic interest in PSCP.
In November 1995, the Management Agreement was amended to provide that
upon demand from PSI or PSMI made prior to December 15, 1995, the
Partnership agreed to prepay (within 15 days after such demand) up to 12
months of management fees (based on the management fees for the comparable
period during the calendar year immediately preceding such prepayment)
discounted at the rate of 14% per year to compensate for early payment. In
December 1995, the Partnership prepaid, to PSI, 8 months of 1996 management
fees at a cost of $229,000. The amount is included in other assets in the
Balance Sheet at December 31, 1995 and will be amortized as management fee
expense in 1996.
6. Taxes Based on Income
---------------------
Taxes based on income are the responsibility of the individual
partners and, accordingly, the Partnership's financial statements do not
reflect a provision for such taxes.
Taxable net income was $1,427,000, $1,388,000 and $2,287,000 for the
years ended December 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively. The
differences between taxable net income and net income is primarily related
to depreciation expense resulting from differences in depreciation methods.
7. Mortgage Note Payable
---------------------
On June 8, 1989, the Partnership financed all of its projects with a
$26,250,000 ten-year nonrecourse note secured by the Partnership's
properties. The note provides for fixed interest of 10.75% per annum.
Loan payments for the first two years consisted of interest only of
approximately $235,000 per month. Beginning in 1991, principal was being
amortized over a 23 year term with payments of interest and principal of
$257,000 per month. On June 1, 1999, the maturity date, a balloon payment
for accrued interest and any unpaid principal is due.
The principal repayment schedule as of December 31, 1995 of the note
is as follows:

-----------
$23,196,000

</TABLE>
In February 1994, the Partnership made a pre-payment of principal
totaling $1,530,000 on the note. In connection with the pre-payment,
effective April 1, 1994, the monthly payment of principal and interest was
reduced from $257,000 to $242,000.
Interest paid on the note was $2,516,000, $2,596,000 and $2,754,000
for the years ended December 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively.

NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 1996
(UNAUDITED)
1. The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been
prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and
Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally
included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to
such rules and regulations, although management believes that the
disclosures contained herein are adequate to make the information presented
not misleading. These unaudited condensed financial statements should be
read in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes
appearing in the Partnership's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31,
1995.
2. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed
financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of only normal
accruals, necessary to present fairly the Partnership's financial position
at September 30, 1996, the results of its operations for the three and nine
months ended September 30, 1996 and 1995 and its cash flows for the nine
months then ended.
3. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30,
1996 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full
year.
4. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform with the 1996
presentation.
5. Marketable securities at September 30, 1996 consist of 440,584 shares of
common stock of Public Storage, Inc., a publicly traded real estate
investment trust and a general partner of the Partnership. The Partnership
has designated its portfolio of marketable securities as available for
sale. Accordingly, at September 30, 1996, the Partnership has recorded the
marketable securities at fair value, based upon the closing quoted prices
of the securities at September 30, 1996, and a corresponding unrealized
gain totaling $1,597,000 as a credit to Partnership equity.
6. In 1995, the Partnership prepaid eight months of 1996 management fees at a
cost of $229,000. The amount has been amortized as management fees paid to
affiliate during the nine months ended September 30, 1996.
7. In August 1992, the buildings at a mini-warehouse facility located in
Miami, Florida were completely destroyed by Hurricane Andrew. The
Partnership received insurance proceeds totaling $2,881,000, which included
an amount for the replacement cost of the destroyed buildings as well as
for business interruption. In 1993, the General Partners decided that it
would be more beneficial to the Partnership, given the condition of the
market area of the mini-warehouse, to cease operations at this location,
and, therefore, decided not to reconstruct the buildings. Accordingly, in
1993, the Partnership reduced real estate facilities by the net book value
of the destroyed buildings, resulting in a gain of $1,369,000.
In June 1996, the Partnership sold approximately 61% of the Miami, Florida
land for a net sales price of $376,000, and realized a gain on the sale of
$13,000. The buyer of the land has an option to purchase the remaining 39%
of the land for $450,000.

SCHEDULE 4
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS
Results of operations
- ---------------------
Three and nine months ended September 30, 1996 compared to three and nine
months ended September 30, 1995: The Partnership's net income for the nine
months ended September 30, 1996 and 1995 was $1,252,000 and $969,000,
respectively, representing an increase of $283,000 or 29%. Net income for the
three months ended September 30, 1996 and 1995 was $432,000 and $388,000,
respectively, representing an increase of $44,000 or 11%. These increases are
primarily the result of increased operating results at the Partnership's mini-
warehouse facilities, decreased interest expense, and a $13,000 gain recognized
on the sale of vacant land.
Rental income was $4,886,000 compared to $4,640,000 for the nine months
ended September 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively, representing an increase of
$246,000 or 5%. Rental income was $1,671,000 compared to $1,606,000 for the
three months ended September 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively, representing an
increase of $65,000 or 4% The increases for the three and nine months ended
September 30, 1996 are attributable to increases in rental rates and occupancy
levels at the Partnership's mini-warehouse and business-park facilities.
Realized rent at the mini-warehouse facilities for the nine months ended
September 30, 1996 increased to $.78 per occupied square foot from $.76 per
occupied square foot for the nine months ended September 30, 1995. Weighted
average occupancy levels at the mini-warehouse facilities were 92% and 89% for
the nine months ended September 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively. Rental income
at the Partnership's San Francisco business park facility increased by $37,000
for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 compared to the same period in 1995
due to increases in both rental rates and occupancy levels. Realized rent for
the nine months ended September 30, 1996 increased to $1.14 per occupied square
foot from $1.03 per occupied square foot for the nine months ended September 30,
1995. Weighted average occupancy levels at the business park facility were 93%
and 92% for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively.
Dividend income increased $5,000 and $15,000 for the three and nine months
ended September 30, 1996, respectively, compared to the same periods in 1995.
These increases are primarily the result of an increase in dividend income
earned on marketable securities of affiliate. As a result of an increase in the
number of shares owned in 1996 compared to the same period in 1995.
Other income increased $19,000 and $40,000 for the three and nine months
ended September 30, 1996, respectively, compared to the same periods in 1995.
These increases are the result of an increase in interest income earned on
investments.
Cost of operations (including management fees paid to affiliates) increased
$49,000 to $1,491,000 from $1,442,000 for the nine months ended September 30,
1996 and 1995, respectively. This increase is mainly attributable to increases
in payroll and advertising. Cost of operations increased $35,000 to $514,000
from $479,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1996 and 1995,
respectively. This increase is mainly attributable to increases in repairs and
maintenance, payroll, and advertising, expenses.

<PAGE>
In 1995, the Partnership prepaid eight months of 1996 management fees on
its mini-warehouse operations (based on the management fees for the comparable
period during the calendar year immediately preceding the prepayment) discounted
at the rate of 14% per year to compensate for early payment. The Partnership
has expensed the prepaid management fees. The amount is included in management
fees paid to affiliates in the condensed statements of income. As a result of
the prepayment, the Partnership saved approximately $30,000 in management fees,
based on the management fees that would have been payable on rental income
generated by the mini-warehouses in the nine months ended September 30, 1996
compared to the amount prepaid.
Interest expense decreased $53,000 for the nine months ended September 30,
1996 compared to the same period in 1995 due primarily to a lower outstanding
loan balance in 1996 over 1995.
In 1995, the Partnership incurred cost of $25,000 to conduct environmental
assessments of its properties to evaluate the environmental condition of and
potential environmental liabilities of such properties. Those assessments did
not indicate any environmental contamination of any of its property sites which
individually or in the aggregate would be material to the Partnership's overall
business, financial condition, or results of operations. No such cost was
incurred in 1996.
Year ended December 31, 1995 compared to year ended December 31, 1994: The
Partnership's net income was $1,426,000 in 1995 compared to $1,189,000 in 1994,
representing an increase of $237,000. The increase was primarily attributable
to an increase in property net operating income at the Partnership's mini-
warehouse facilities combined with decreased interest expense and partially
offset by environmental costs incurred on the Partnership's facilities in 1995
(see discussion below).
During 1995, property net operating income (rental income less cost of
operations, management fees paid to affiliates and depreciation expense) was
$3,586,000 in 1995 compared to $3,515,000 in 1994, representing an increase of
$71,000 or 2%. This increase was primarily attributable to an increase in
rental income at the Partnership's mini-warehouse facilities partially offset by
a decrease in rental income at the San Francisco business park facility and an
increase in cost of operations and depreciation expense.
Rental income was $6,210,000 in 1995 compared to $6,012,000 in 1994,
representing an increase of $198,000 or 3%. The increase was primarily
attributable to an increase in rental income at the Partnership's mini-warehouse
facilities due primarily to an increase in rental rates. Rental income at the
San Francisco business park facility declined by $31,000 due to a 4 point
decrease in occupancy. The weighted average occupancy levels for the mini-
warehouse and business park facilities were 90% and 91%, respectively, in 1995
compared to 89% and 95%, respectively, in 1994. The monthly realized rent per
occupied square foot for the mini-warehouse and business park facilities
averaged $.76 and $1.04, respectively, in 1995 compared to $.74 and $1.10,
respectively, in 1994.
Other income increased $14,000 in 1995 compared to 1994. Other income
includes business interruption insurance proceeds (net of certain costs and
expenses of maintaining the Miami facility, discussed below in the results of
operations for the year ended December 31, 1994), relating to the disposed
facility, of $109,000 and $87,000 in 1995 and 1994, respectively.
Dividend income from marketable securities of affiliate increased $96,000
in 1995 compared to 1994. This increase was mainly attributable to an increase
in the number of shares owned in 1995 compared to 1994 and an increase in the
dividend rate from $.21 to $.22 per quarter per share.
Cost of operations (including management fees paid to affiliates) increased
$57,000 or 3% to $1,936,000 in 1995 from $1,879,000 in 1994. This increase was
primarily attributable to increases in payroll and repairs and maintenance
offset by a decrease in property tax expense.
4-2
<PAGE>
Substantially all of the Partnership's facilities were acquired prior to
the time that it was customary to conduct environmental investigations in
connection with property acquisitions. During 1995, the Partnership completed
environmental assessments of its properties to evaluate the environmental
condition of, and potential environmental liabilities of such properties. These
assessments were performed by an independent environmental consulting firm.
Based on the assessments, the Partnership has expensed, as of December 31, 1995,
an estimated $27,000 for known environmental remediation requirements. Although
there can be no assurance, the Partnership is not aware of any environmental
contamination of any of its property sites which individually or in the
aggregate would be material to the Partnership's overall business, financial
condition, or results of operations.
Interest expense was $2,598,000 and $2,677,000 in 1995 and 1994,
respectively, representing a decrease of $79,000 or 3%. The decrease was
primarily a result of a lower outstanding loan balance in 1995 compared to 1994.
Year ended December 31, 1994 compared to year ended December 31, 1993: The
Partnership's net income for 1994 was $1,189,000 compared to $2,144,000 in 1993,
representing a decrease of $955,000. The 1993 net income includes a gain
relating to a destroyed mini-warehouse facility, totaling $1,369,000,
accordingly, income before the gain increased by $414,000 or 53% in 1994
compared to 1993. The increase was primarily due to an increase in property net
operating income at the Partnership's mini-warehouse facilities combined with
decreased interest expense.
In August 1992, the buildings at a mini-warehouse facility located in
Miami, Florida (Miami/Perrine) were completely destroyed by Hurricane Andrew.
The facility was adequately insured with respect to business interruption and
reconstruction of the facility. The General Partners and insurers reached a
settlement whereby the Partnership would receive net insurance proceeds of
approximately $2,881,000. The General Partners determined that it would be more
beneficial to the Partnership, given the condition of the market area, to cease
operations at this location and therefore decided not to reconstruct the
buildings. Therefore, after allowing for demolition and clean up costs of
$212,000 and an amount specified for business interruption insurance, the
Partnership reduced (i) real estate facilities by $661,000, the net book value
of the destroyed buildings, and (ii) other related net assets and liabilities of
$7,000, and (iii) recognized a gain of $1,369,000 for the year ended December
31, 1993.
Property net operating income (rental income less cost of operations,
management fees paid to affiliates and depreciation expense) was $3,515,000 in
1994 and $3,350,000 in 1993, representing an increase of $165,000 or 5%. The
increase was primarily due to an increase in rental income at the Partnership's
facilities offset by an increase in cost of operations and depreciation expense.
Rental income was $6,012,000 in 1994 compared to $5,770,000 in 1993,
representing an increase of $242,000 or 4%. This increase was primarily
attributable to increased rental rates at the Partnership's mini-warehouse
facilities. The weighted average occupancy levels for the mini-warehouse and
business park facilities remained stable at 89% and 95%, respectively, for 1994
and 1993. The average monthly realized rent per occupied square foot for the
mini-warehouse and business park facilities was $.74 and $1.10, respectively, in
1994 compared to $.71 and $1.01 respectively, in 1993.
Cost of operations (including management fees paid to affiliates) was
$1,879,000 in 1994 and $1,827,000 in 1993, respectively, representing an
increase of $52,000 or 3%. The increase was primarily the result of increases
in repairs and maintenance and payroll expense, partially offset by a decrease
in advertising expense.
Other income includes business interruption insurance proceeds (net of
certain costs and expenses of maintaining the property), relating to the
disposed facility, of $87,000 and $166,000 for 1994 and 1993, respectively.
4-3
<PAGE>
Dividend income from marketable securities of affiliate increased $146,000
in 1994 compared to 1993. This increase was mainly attributable to an increase
in the number of shares owned in 1994 compared to 1993.
Interest expense was $2,677,000 and $2,836,000 in 1994 and 1993,
respectively, representing a decrease of $159,000 or 6%. The decrease was
primarily a result of a lower outstanding loan balance in 1994 compared to 1993
due to the prepayment of $1,530,000 of principal in February 1994 on the loan.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------
Cash flows from operating activities ($2,127,000 for the nine months ended
September 30, 1996 and $1,626,000 for the year ended December 31, 1995) have
been sufficient to meet all current obligations of the Partnership. During
1996, the Partnership anticipates approximately $464,000 of capital
improvements. During 1995, the Partnership's property operator commenced a
program to enhance the visual appearance of the mini-warehouse facilities
operated by it. Such enhancements will include new signs, exterior color
schemes, and improvements to the rental offices. Included in the 1996 capital
improvement budget are estimated costs of $60,000 for such enhancements.
At September 30, 1996, the Partnership held 440,584 (including the November
1995 purchase) shares of common stock (marketable securities) with a fair value
totaling $9,968,000 (cost of $5,283,000 at September 30, 1996) in Public
Storage, Inc. (PSI). In November 1995, the Partnership purchased an additional
22,456 shares of PSI common stock at a cost of $398,000. The Partnership
recognized $373,000 in dividends during 1995 and $291,000 during the nine months
ended September 30, 1996.
In November 1995, the Management Agreement was amended to provide that upon
demand from PSI or PSMI made prior to December 15, 1995, the Partnership agreed
to prepay (within 15 days after such demand) up to 12 months of management fees
(based on the management fees for the comparable period during the calendar year
immediately preceding such prepayment) discounted at the rate of 14% per year to
compensate for early payment. In December 1995, the Partnership prepaid, to PSI,
8 months of 1996 management fees at a cost of $229,000. At September 30, 1996,
the Partnership held 440,584 shares of common stock (marketable securities) with
a fair value totaling $9,968,000 (cost basis of $5,283,000 at September 30,
1996) in Public Storage, Inc., one of the general partners in the Partnership.
The Partnership recognized $291,000 in dividends for the nine months ended
September 30, 1996.
In August 1992, the buildings at a mini-warehouse facility located in
Miami, Florida were completely destroyed by Hurricane Andrew. The Partnership
received insurance proceeds totaling $2,881,000, which included an amount for
the replacement cost of the destroyed buildings as well as for business
interruption. In 1993, the General Partners decided that it would be more
beneficial to the Partnership, given the condition of the market area of the
mini-warehouse, to cease operations at this location, and, therefore, decided
not to reconstruct the buildings. Accordingly, in 1993, the Partnership reduced
real estate facilities by the net book value of the destroyed buildings,
resulting in a gain of $1,369,000.
In June 1996, the Partnership sold approximately 61% of the Miami, Florida
land for a net price of $376,000 ($400,000 less $24,000 of selling cost),
resulting in a $13,000 gain on the sale. The buyer of the land has an option to
purchase the remaining 39% of the land for $450,000.

</TABLE>
Quarterly distributions were reduced in 1990, and discontinued in 1991, to
enable the Partnership to increase its cash reserves for principal payments that
commenced in 1991, and are scheduled to increase in subsequent years through
1999, at which time the remaining principal balance is payable.
During the third quarter of 1987, the limited partners recovered all of
their initial investment thereby increasing the General Partners' share of cash
distributions from 8% to 25% (see Item 13).
During 1989, the Partnership financed all of its properties with a
$26,250,000 loan with fixed interest of 10.75% per annum. Proceeds of
$24,356,000 were distributed to the partners in June 1989 and are included in
the 1989 distribution. In February 1994, the Partnership made a prepayment of
principal totaling $1,530,000 on this note. As a result of the pre-payment, the
monthly payment of principal and interest has been reduced from $257,000 to
$242,000. At December 31, 1995, the outstanding balance of the mortgage note
was $23,196,000, which matures on June 1, 1999.

PLEASE READ THE ACCOMPANYING INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY
Ladies and Gentlemen:
The undersigned hereby tenders to B. Wayne Hughes ("Hughes"), for $459
per Unit in cash the above-described units of limited partnership interest (the
"Units") of Public Storage Properties V, Ltd., a California limited partnership
(the "Partnership"), in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions
of Hughes' offer contained in Hughes' Offer to Purchase dated March 21, 1997
(the "Offer to Purchase"), and in this Letter of Transmittal (which together
with the Offer to Purchase constitutes the "Offer"). The undersigned hereby
acknowledges receipt of the Offer to Purchase.
Subject to, and effective upon, acceptance for tender of the Units
tendered herewith in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions of
the Offer, the undersigned hereby sells, assigns and transfers to, or upon the
order of, Hughes, all right, title and interest in and to all of the Units that
are being tendered hereby and that are being accepted for purchase pursuant to
the Offer and any non-cash distributions, other Units or other securities issued
or issuable in respect thereof on or after March 21, 1997 and appoints the
Depositary the true and lawful attorney-in-fact of the undersigned with respect
to such Units (and such non-cash distributions, other Units or securities), with
full power of substitution (such power of attorney being deemed to be an
irrevocable power coupled with an interest), to (a) transfer ownership of such
Units (and any such non-cash distributions, other Units or securities), to or
upon the order of Hughes, (b) present such Units (and any such non-cash
distributions, other Units or securities) for transfer on the books of the
Partnership and (c) receive all benefits and otherwise exercise all rights of
beneficial ownership of such Units (and any such non-cash distributions, other
Units or securities), all in accordance with the terms of the Offer.
The undersigned hereby represents and warrants that the undersigned
(i) has received and reviewed the Offer to Purchase and (ii) has full power and
authority to sell, assign and transfer the Units tendered hereby (and any and
all non-cash distributions, other Units or securities issued or issuable in
respect thereof on or after March 21, 1997) and that when the same are accepted
for purchase by Hughes, Hughes will acquire good, marketable and unencumbered
title thereto, free and clear of all liens, restrictions, charges and
encumbrances, and the same will not be subject to any adverse claim. The
undersigned, upon request, will execute and deliver any additional documents
deemed by the Depositary or Hughes to be necessary or desirable to complete the
sale, assignment and transfer of the Units tendered hereby and any non-cash
distributions, other Units or other securities
<PAGE>
issued or issuable in respect of such Units on or after March 21, 1997. In
addition, the undersigned shall promptly remit and transfer to the Depositary
for the account of Hughes any and all other Units or other securities (including
rights) issued to the undersigned on or after March 21, 1997 in respect of Units
tendered hereby, accompanied by appropriate documentation of transfer, and
pending such remittance or appropriate assurance thereof, Hughes shall be
entitled to all rights and privileges as owner of any such other Units or other
securities and may withhold the entire consideration or deduct from the
consideration the amount of value thereof as determined by Hughes, in his sole
discretion.
The undersigned has been advised that (i) Hughes is a General Partner of
the Partnership; Public Storage, Inc., the other General Partner of the
Partnership, is controlled by Hughes; and the General Partners of the
Partnership make no recommendation as to whether or not the undersigned should
tender his or her Units in the Offer and the undersigned has made his or her own
decision to tender the Units and (ii) the General Partners believe that the
Offer Price is less than the amount that Unitholders might receive if the
Partnership were liquidated.
The undersigned understands that notwithstanding any other provisions of
the Offer and subject to the applicable rules of the Securities and Exchange
Commission, Hughes will not be required to accept for purchase any Units, may
postpone the acceptance for purchase of Units tendered and may terminate or
amend the Offer if prior to the time of purchase of any such Units any of the
following events shall occur or Hughes shall have learned of the occurrence of
any of such events:
(a) There shall be threatened, instituted or pending any action or
proceeding before any domestic or foreign court or governmental agency or
other regulatory or administrative agency or commission (i) challenging
the acquisition by Hughes of the Units, seeking to restrain or prohibit
the making or consummation of the Offer, seeking to obtain any material
damages or otherwise directly or indirectly relating to the transactions
contemplated by the Offer, (ii) seeking to prohibit or restrict Hughes'
ownership or operation of any material portion of Hughes' business or
assets, or to compel Hughes to dispose of or hold separate all or any
material portion of his business or assets as a result of the Offer,
(iii) seeking to make the purchase of, or payment for, some or all of the
Units illegal, (iv) resulting in a delay in the ability of Hughes to
accept for payment or pay for some or all of the Units, (v) imposing
material limitations on the ability of Hughes to effectively acquire or
hold or to exercise full rights of ownership of the Units, including,
without limitation, the right to vote the Units purchased by Hughes on
all matters properly presented to the limited partners of the
Partnership, (vi) which, in the sole judgment of Hughes, could materially
and adversely affect the treatment of the Offer for federal income tax
purposes, (vii) which otherwise is reasonably likely to materially
adversely affect the Partnership or value of the Units or (viii) which
imposes any material condition unacceptable to Hughes;
(b) Any statute, rule, regulation or order shall be enacted,
promulgated, entered or deemed applicable to the Offer, any legislation
shall be pending, or any other action shall have been taken, proposed or
threatened, by any domestic government or governmental authority or by
any court, domestic or foreign, which, in the sole judgment of Hughes, is
likely, directly or indirectly, to result in any of the consequences
referred to in paragraph (a) above; or
(c) There shall have occurred (i) any general suspension of, or
limitation on prices for, trading in securities on the New York Stock
Exchange ("NYSE"), (ii) the declaration of a banking moratorium or any
suspension of payments in respect of banks in the United States,
(iii) the commencement of a war, armed hostilities or other international
or national calamity materially affecting the United States, (iv) any
limitation by any governmental authority or any other event which is
reasonably likely to affect the extension of credit by banks or other
lending institutions in the United States, (v) any material decline in
security prices on the NYSE or (vi) in the case of any of the foregoing
existing at the time of the Offer, any material worsening thereof;
which in the sole judgment of Hughes with respect to each and every matter
referred to above and regardless of the circumstances (including any action or
inaction by Hughes) giving rise to any such condition, makes it inadvisable to
proceed with the Offer or with such acceptance for purchase. The foregoing
conditions are for the sole benefit of Hughes and may be asserted by Hughes
regardless of the circumstances giving rise to any such conditions (including
any action or inaction by Hughes) or may be waived by Hughes in whole or in
part. The failure by Hughes at any time to exercise any of the foregoing rights
shall not be deemed a waiver of any such right, and each such right shall be
deemed a continuing right which may be asserted at any time and from time to
time.
The undersigned hereby irrevocably appoints B. Wayne Hughes and Harvey
Lenkin designees of Hughes, and each of them, the attorneys and proxies of the
undersigned, each with full power of substitution, to vote in such manner as
each such attorney and proxy or his substitute shall, in his sole discretion,
deem proper, and otherwise act (including pursuant to written consent) with
respect to all of the Units tendered hereby which have been accepted for payment
by Hughes prior to the time of such vote or action (and any and all non-cash
distributions, other Units or securities, issued or issuable in respect thereon
on or after March 21, 1997), which the undersigned is entitled to vote, at any
meeting (whether annual or special and whether or not an adjourned meeting) of
limited partners of the Partnership, or with respect to which the undersigned is
empowered to act in connection with action by written consent in lieu of any
such meeting or otherwise. This proxy is irrevocable and is granted in
consideration of, and is effective upon, the acceptance for payment of such
Units by Hughes, in accordance with the terms of the Offer. Such acceptance for
payment shall revoke any other proxy granted by the undersigned at any time with
respect to such Units (and any such non-cash distributions, other Units or
securities) and no subsequent proxies will be given (and if given will be deemed
not to be effective) with respect thereto by the undersigned. Hughes reserves
the right to require that in order for Units to be properly tendered,
immediately upon acceptance of such Units for purchase by Hughes, Hughes is able
to exercise full voting rights with respect to such Units.
The undersigned understands that tenders of Units pursuant to any one of
the procedures described in the Offer and in the instructions hereto will
constitute a binding agreement between the undersigned and Hughes upon the terms
and subject to the conditions of the Offer.
All authority herein conferred or agreed to be conferred shall survive
the death or incapacity of the undersigned and any obligation of the undersigned
hereunder shall be binding upon the heirs, executors, administrators, legal and
personal representatives, successors and assigns of the undersigned. Except as
stated in the Offer, this tender is irrevocable.
Please issue the payment for the Units in the name(s) of the undersigned.
Similarly, unless otherwise indicated under "Special Mailing Instructions,"
please mail the payment (and accompanying documents, as appropriate) to the
undersigned at the registered address. In the event that the "Special Mailing
Instructions" are completed, please deliver the payment to the registered
holder(s) at the address so indicated.

to be tendered, (i) fill in the number of Units which are to be tendered in the
section entitled "Number of Units Tendered" and (ii) the Unitholder must hold at
