INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
We have audited the accompanying Historical Summary of Combined Revenues and
Certain Operating Expenses of Bethel Park Plaza, Regency Park Shopping Center,
Westridge Court Shopping Center and Hillcrest Apartments (the "Properties") for
the year ended October 31, 1996. 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.
Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether the Historical Summary is free of material misstate-
ment. 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.

HISTORICAL SUMMARY OF COMBINED REVENUES AND CERTAIN OPERATING EXPENSES
OF CERTAIN PROPERTIES ACQUIRED
FOR THE YEAR ENDED OCTOBER 31, 1996
(IN THOUSANDS)
Rental income $10,159
Repairs and maintenance $ 591
Real estate taxes 1,299
Other operating expenses 552 2,442
Excess of revenues over certain operating expenses $ 7,717
NOTE:
The Historical Summary of Combined Revenues and Certain Operating Expenses
relates to the operation of Bethel Park Plaza, Regency Park Shopping Center,
Westridge Court Shopping Center and Hillcrest Apartments (the "Properties")
while under ownership previous to New Plan Realty Trust. The properties are all
shopping centers, except Hillcrest Apartments.
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 shopping centers being reported on are approximately as
follows (in thousands):
1998 $8,734 2001 $ 6,268
1999 8,579 2002 3,989
2000 7,952 Thereafter 46,541
The above assumes that all leases which expire are not renewed, therefore,
neither renewal rentals nor rental 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, increase in the 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 four 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 four 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 CERTAIN
PROPERTIES ACQUIRED (UNAUDITED)
a. The following presents an estimate of taxable operating income and

the four properties in the future and were prepared on the basis
described in the accompanying notes which should be read in
conjunction herewith.

NOTES TO ESTIMATES OF TAXABLE OPERATING INCOME AND FUNDS GENERATED
FROM CERTAIN PROPERTIES ACQUIRED
(UNAUDITED)
Basis of Presentation
1. Depreciation expense was based upon an estimated useful life of 40
years 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 unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statements of income for the
year ended July 31, 1996 and the nine months ended April 30, 1997 reflect the
acquisition of the four properties as if the transactions and other acquisitions
made during the year had occurred on August 1, 1995. This pro forma information
is based on the historical statement of the Trust after giving effect to the
acquisition of these properties.
The following unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet as of
April 30, 1997 reflects the acquisition of the four properties and other
acquisitions previously reported as if the acquisition had occurred on that
date.
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 acquisitions been made on the date
indicated or 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 audited consolidated financial statements as of July 31,
1996 and for the year then ended and the accompanying notes (which are contained
in the Trust's Form 10-K for the year ended July 31, 1996).
