Note 5. Property in Reno, Nevada:
------------------------
The Partnership and Corporate Property Associates 2 ("CPA(R):2"), an
affiliate, own a property in Reno, Nevada as tenants-in-common with 61% and
39% interests, respectively. The property has been vacant since December
1994 when a lease with New Valley Corporation was terminated pursuant to an
order of the bankruptcy court. On August 28, 1996, the Partnership and
CPA(R):2 entered into a net lease agreement for the Reno property with
Excel Teleservices, Inc. ("Excel"). The lease obligations of Excel have
been guaranteed by its parent company, Excel Communications, Inc.
Under the lease, the Partnership and CPA(R):2 are obligated to fund an
allowance for tenant improvements to the facility of up to $1,341,600. In
addition, the lease requires the Partnership and CPA(R):2 to repair and/or
replace the HVAC system and roof; such repair costs are estimated to amount
to $228,000. The Partnership's share of allowance and repair costs amount
to approximately $958,000.
The initial lease term of ten years will commence at the earlier of
December 26, 1996 or the date on which Excel commences operations at the
facility. Rent will be $532,800 during the first five years and increase
to $580,800 for the remainder of the initial term (of which the
Partnership's share will be $325,000 and $354,000, respectively). The
lease also provides Excel with two five-year renewal options with the rent
during such renewal terms based on the then prevailing market rate. Excel
has the right to terminate the lease at the end of the sixth lease year.

Item 2. - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION OF OPERATIONS
-----------------------------------------------
Results of Operations:
- ---------------------
The results of operations for the three-month and nine-month periods
ended September 30, 1996 are not directly comparable to the same periods
ended September 30, 1995 as the Partnership recognized a nonrecurring gain
of $11,499,000 on the settlement of its dispute with The Leslie Fay Company
("Leslie Fay") in 1995. Excluding the effect of the gain on settlement,
earnings for the current three-month and nine-month periods decreased by
$7,000 and $111,000, respectively. For both current periods, the decreases
in earnings are due to decreases in lease revenues and other interest
income and, for the current three-month period, an increase in property
expense. These effects were significantly offset by a decrease in interest
expense. The decrease in lease revenues resulted from the lease
restructuring transaction in the fourth quarter of 1995 with Gibson
Greetings, Inc. ("Gibson"). In connection with the restructuring, the
Partnership received a substantial lump sum payment in consideration for
severing one of the properties from the Gibson lease, entering into a lease
for such property with Cleo, Inc. ("Cleo") and modifying the existing lease
with Gibson. The Partnership used the lump sum consideration received from
Gibson to retire the mortgage debt on the Gibson and Cleo properties at the
time of the restructuring. Although the rent from the Gibson and Cleo
properties subsequent to the restructuring was reduced, cash flow (rent
less mortgage debt service) from such properties has remained stable due to
the retirement of the debt. Rentals from Hughes Markets, Inc. increased
primarily as a result of the two-year lease extension agreement which
commenced in May 1996 and which increased annual rentals by $371,000 and
also provides for a lump sum rental payment of $587,000 at the end of such
term. For financial reporting purposes, the lump sum rental payment is
being recognized as rental income on a straight-line basis over the
extended term. The decrease in other interest income was due to the higher
cash balances held in 1995 for the period from which cash was received in
connection with the Leslie Fay settlement before payment of a special
distribution of $120 per Limited Partnership Unit in October 1995. The
decrease in interest expense was due to the satisfaction of all remaining
mortgage debt in 1995, including prepayments of three mortgage loans in the
first quarter and the aforementioned satisfaction of the Gibson mortgage
debt in the fourth quarter. Although property expenses increased during
the three-month period, the increase was primarily due to the timing of
costs incurred for maintaining the Reno, Nevada and Moorestown, New Jersey
properties as costs did not increase for the comparable nine-month periods.
Financial Condition:
- -------------------
There has been no material change in the Partnership's financial
condition since December 31, 1995. Cash flow from operations of $2,892,000
was sufficient to fund distributions to partners of $2,485,000. During the
first quarter, the Partnership sold the property formerly leased to Leslie
Fay and realized cash proceeds of $1,854,000. The Partnership also reduced
its note payable from $2,300,000 to $500,000. With the improvement of the
Partnership's cash balances to $1,620,000, the Partnership should have
sufficient cash reserves to fully fund its $958,000 share of costs required
under the Excel Teleservices, Inc. ("Excel") lease which has been entered
into for the Reno property. To the extent that cash reserves are not at an
acceptable level after funding the Excel improvements, the Partnership has
substantial borrowing capacity as none of the Partnership's properties are
encumbered by mortgage debt. As annual cash flow will increase by $325,000
when Excel commences paying rent, the Partnership may have the ability to
maintain its cash balances at an acceptable level without needing to borrow
any funds. The Partnership received $47,000 during the third quarter for
its share of rents from Sports & Recreation, Inc. ("Sports & Recreation")
for the Moorestown property and has received all subsequent rents. Sports
& Recreation had been in the process of renovating the Moorestown property,
but has decided not to occupy the property. The Partnership and Sports &
Recreation previously engaged in discussions regarding a settlement of the
lease obligation, and the Partnership would consider new settlement
proposals.
The General Partners are currently investigating ways to provide
liquidity for limited partners on a tax-effective basis.
