INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
We have audited the accompanying Historical Summary of Revenues and Certain
Operating Expenses of Wallkill Plaza, Midway Crossing, Delta Center, Fashion
Corners, Farmington Crossroads, Hall Road Crossing, and Hampton Village Centre
(the "Properties") for the year ended July 31, 1995. This Historical Summary
is the responsibility of New Plan Realty Trust's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on this Historical Summary based on our
audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. These standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the Historical Summary is free of
material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the Historical Summary. An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of
the Historical Summary. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis
for our opinion.
The Historical Summary has been prepared for the purpose of complying with the
rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and its use
for any other purpose may be inappropriate. Accordingly, as described in the
Note to the Historical Summary, the statement excludes interest, depreciation,
and general and administrative expenses for the period examined, and is not
intended to be a complete presentation of the Properties' revenues and
expenses.
In our opinion, the Historical Summary referred to above presents fairly, in
all material respects, the revenues and certain operating expenses (exclusive
of interest, depreciation and general and administrative expenses) in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

Real estate taxes 2,253
Other operating expenses 468

NOTE:
The Historical Summary of Revenues and Certain Operating Expenses relates to
the operations of Wallkill Plaza, Midway Crossing, Delta Center, Fashion
Corners, Farmington Crossroads, Hall Road Crossing, and Hampton Village Centre
(the "Properties") while under ownership previous to New Plan Realty Trust.
All of the Properties are shopping centers.
The summary has been prepared on the accrual method of accounting. Operating
expenses include maintenance and repair expenses, utilities, real estate taxes,
insurance and certain other expenses. In accordance with the regulations of
the Securities and Exchange Commission, mortgage interest expense,
depreciation, and general and administrative costs have been excluded from
operating expenses, as they are dependent upon a particular owner, purchase
price or financial arrangement.
Minimum future rentals for the years ended July 31 under existing commercial
operating leases at the shopping centers being reported on are approximately as
follows (in thousands):
1996 - $10,933 1999 - $8,085
1997 - 9,570 2000 - 7,163
1998 - 8,602 thereafter - 43,955
The above assumes that all leases which expire are not renewed, therefore
neither renewal rentals nor rentals from replacement tenants are included.
Minimum future rentals do not include contingent rentals which may be received
under certain leases on the basis of percentage of reported tenants' sales
volumes, increases in Consumer Price Indices, common area maintenance charges
and real estate tax reimbursement.

INFORMATION PURSUANT TO RULE 3-14 OF REGULATION S-X
Part I MANAGEMENT ASSESSMENT
Management's assessment of the Properties prior to acquisition includes,
but is not limited to, the quality of the tenant base, regional demographics,
the competitive environment, operating expenses and local property taxes. In
addition, the physical aspect of the Properties, location, condition and
quality of design and construction are evaluated. Management also always
conducts Phase I environmental tests. All factors, when viewed in their
entirety, have met management's acquisition criteria. Management is not aware
of any material factors relating to the acquisition other than those discussed
above.
Part II ESTIMATES OF TAXABLE OPERATING INCOME AND FUNDS GENERATED FROM

NOTES TO ESTIMATES OF TAXABLE OPERATING INCOME AND FUNDS GENERATED
FROM CERTAIN PROPERTIES ACQUIRED
(UNAUDITED)
Basis of Presentation
1. Estimated depreciation was based upon an allocation of the purchase
price to land (20%) and building (80%) with the depreciation being
taken over a 40 year life using the straight line method.
2. No income taxes have been provided because New Plan Realty Trust is
taxed as a real estate investment trust under the provisions of the
Internal Revenue Code. Accordingly, the Trust does not pay Federal
income tax whenever income distributed to shareholders is equal to at
least 95% of real estate investment trust taxable income and certain
other conditions are met.

PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
The following unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet as of January
31, 1996 reflects the acquisition of the Properties.
The pro forma condensed consolidated statements of income for the year
ended July 31, 1995 and the six months ended January 31, 1996 reflect the
acquisition of the Properties as if the transaction had occurred on August 1,
1994. This pro forma information is based on the historical statements of the
Trust after giving effect to the acquisition of the Properties.
The acquisition cost of approximately $106.6 million was financed by the
assumption of a mortgage of $21.5 million, the proceeds from a public offering
of shares of beneficial interest registered under a shelf registration
statement and for which a prospectus supplement has been filed, and cash on
hand.
The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements have
been prepared by New Plan Realty Trust management. The unaudited pro forma
condensed consolidated statements of income may not be indicative of the
results that would have actually occurred had the acquisition been made on the
date indicated. Also, it may not be indicative of the results that may be
achieved in the future. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated
financial statements should be read in conjunction with New Plan Realty Trust's
