$275.00 PER UNIT CASH OFFER
TO ALL UNITHOLDERS OF
CONNECTICUT GENERAL EQUITY PROPERTIES-I
Dear Unitholder:
This letter supplements our Offer to Purchase (the "Offer") up
to 15,695 units of interest ("Units") in Connecticut General Equity
Properties-I Limited Partnership (the "Partnership") at a net cash price of
$275 per Unit (the "Purchase Price"), less the amount of certain distributions
and any transfer fees imposed by the Partnership (as described in the Offer).
The Offer expires December 17, 1996 at 12:00 midnight, New York time.
We urge you to consider the following points in your review of
our Offer and the materials the Partnership has sent to you:
o The general partner of the Partnership has estimated the "net
asset value" of the Partnership at $425 per Unit. The price
in our Offer is less than this amount, and may be less than
ultimate liquidation proceeds, but it is not a hypothetical
value. OUR PURCHASE PRICE IS AVAILABLE IN CASH NOW.
Unitholders can sell their Units this year and receive their
final income tax forms from the Partnership for 1996.
o The general partner has not, to our knowledge, obtained an
independent appraisal or valuation of the Partnership's
properties. The general partner has stated there is no
certainty that if the Partnership's properties are sold, the
Partnership would realize from such sale an amount equal to
the value placed on such properties by the general partner.
o The general partner's opinion of "net asset value" does not
take into account brokerage commissions and other costs of
selling the Partnership's properties or additional costs of
liquidating and distributing the Partnership's assets. These
costs would reduce the amount distributable to limited
partners on liquidation and should be considered when
comparing "net asset value" to the Purchase Price.
o After the date of our Offer, a proposal to purchase the
Partnership's properties was made by Glenborough Realty Trust,
Incorporated. After deduction of estimated fees and costs
likely to be incurred in such transaction, (we estimated costs
at 3% of the selling price of $13 million, including a $260,000
brokerage fee payable to an agent of Glensborough) net sales
proceeds per Unit are estimated to be approximately $321. The
Purchase Price we have offered constitutes approximately 86% of
such amount and is not subject to the contingencies and
uncertainties of a negotiation process.
<PAGE> 2
o The general partner has stated that limited partner approval
of the Glenborough proposal is needed. Even if such proposal
is submitted to and approved by the limited partners, there is
no certainty that a sale pursuant to the Glenborough proposal
will be consummated and, if consummated, the closing is not
likely to occur for several months.
o Since the Offer to Purchase was mailed, updated information
from the Partnership Spectrum became available. Such
information showed a high price of $240 and a low price of
$190 for Units sold in secondary markets during the
twelve-month period ended September 30, 1996. Such prices do
not reflect the 10% commissions usually paid by sellers in
such sales. Our offer is for $275 per Unit without
commissions.
o We are making the Offer with a view to making a profit.
Accordingly, there is a conflict between our desire to
purchase Units at a low price and the desire of Unitholders to
sell their Units at a high price.
We urge you to read carefully this Supplement and the Offer to
Purchase for information pertinent to this Offer, including tax considerations,
and to consult your own tax advisor. An Agreement of Transfer and Letter of
Transmittal and return envelope is enclosed for your convenience.
