NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 1998
(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/A
for the year ended December 31, 1997.
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 June 30, 1998, the results of operations for the three and
six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997 and cash flows for the six
months then ended.
3. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30,
1998 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for
the full year.
4. In January 1997, the Joint Venture, PSI, and other related partnerships
transferred a total of 35 business parks to PS Business Parks, LP
("PSBPLP"), an operating partnership formed to own and operate business
parks in which PSI has a significant interest. Included among the
properties transferred was the Joint Venture's business park in
exchange for a partnership interest in PSBPLP. The general partner of
PSBPLP is PS Business Parks, Inc.
5. Previously, the Partnership consolidated the Joint Venture in its
financial statements. The accompanying financial statements have been
restated to de-consolidate the Joint Venture. This restatement had no
impact upon net income or Partner's Equity.
6. Summarized combined financial data with respect to the Real Estate
Entities is as follows:

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
- --------------------------
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations contains "forward looking" statements that involve risks and
uncertainties and are based upon a number of assumptions. Actual results and
trends may differ materially depending upon a number of factors. Information
regarding these factors is contained in the Partnership's Annual Report on Form
10-K/A for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1997 and in the report for the
quarterly period on Form 10-Q/A for the quarter ended March 31, 1998.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
- ---------------------
THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1998 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1997:
The Partnership's net income for the three months ended June 30, 1998
was $1,042,000 compared to $886,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1997,
representing an increase of $156,000, or 18%. The increase was primarily due to
the Partnership's share of improved property operations at the real estate
facilities that the Partnership has an interest in, combined with a decrease in
depreciation expense allocated to the Partnership with respect to the Joint
Venture.
Property Operations
- -------------------
Rental income for the Partnership's wholly-owned mini-warehouse properties
was $693,000 compared to $668,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1998 and
1997, respectively, representing an increase of $25,000, or 3.7%. Cost of
operations (including management fees) increased $29,000, or 10%, to $308,000
from $279,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively.
Accordingly, for the Partnership's wholly-owned mini-warehouse properties,
property net operating income decreased by $4,000, or 1%, from $389,000 to
$385,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1997 and 1998, respectively.
Equity in Earnings of Real Estate Entities
- ------------------------------------------
Equity in earnings of real estate entities was $859,000 in the three
months ended June 30, 1998 as compared to $707,000 during the three months ended
June 30, 1997, representing an increase of $152,000, or 22%. This was due
primarily to the Partnership's share of operating results at the Joint Venture's
mini-warehouses, combined with a decrease in depreciation expense allocated to
the Partnership with respect to the Joint Venture.

<PAGE>
Depreciation and Amortization
- -----------------------------
Depreciation and amortization increased $6,000, or 4%, from $163,000 to
$169,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1997 and 1998, respectively. This
increase was primarily attributable to the depreciation of capital expenditures
made during 1997 and 1998.
SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1998 COMPARED TO SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1997:
The Partnership's net income for the six months ended June 30, 1998 was
$1,954,000 compared to $1,649,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1997,
representing an increase of $305,000, or 19%. The increase was primarily due to
the Partnership's share of improved property operations at the real estate
facilities that the Partnership has an interest in, combined with a decrease in
depreciation expense allocated to the Partnership with respect to the Joint
Venture.
Property Operations
- -------------------
Rental income for the Partnership's wholly-owned mini-warehouse
properties was $1,375,000 compared to $1,308,000 for the six months ended June
30, 1998 and 1997, respectively, representing an increase of $67,000, or 5%.
Cost of operations (including management fees) increased $21,000,or 4%, to
$580,000 from $559,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997,
respectively. Accordingly, for the Partnership's wholly-owned mini-warehouse
properties, property net operating income increased by $46,000, or 6%, from
$749,000 to $795,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1998,
respectively.
Equity in Earnings of Real Estate Entities
- ------------------------------------------
Equity in earnings of real estate entities was $1,528,000 in the six
months ended June 30, 1998 as compared to $1,284,000 during the six months ended
June 30, 1997, representing an increase of $244,000, or 19%. This was due
primarily to the Partnership's share of improved operating results at the Joint
Venture's mini-warehouses combined with a decrease in depreciation expense
allocated to the Partnership with respect to the Joint Venture.
Depreciation and Amortization
- -----------------------------
Depreciation and amortization increased $13,000, or 4%, from $321,000
to $334,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1998, respectively. This
increase was primarily attributable to the depreciation of capital expenditures
made during 1997 and 1998.

<PAGE>
SUPPLEMENTAL PROPERTY DATA
- --------------------------
Most of the Partnership's net income is from the Partnership's share of
the operating results of the Mini-Warehouse Properties. Therefore, in order to
evaluate the Partnership's operating results, the General Partners analyze the
operating performance of the Mini-Warehouse Properties.
THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1998 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1997:
Rental income for the Mini-Warehouse Properties was $3,978,000 compared
to $3,831,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively,
representing an increase of $147,000, or 4%. The increase in rental income was
primarily attributable to increased rental rates. The monthly average realized
rent per square foot for the Mini-Warehouse Properties was $.61 compared to $.58
for the three months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively. The weighted
average occupancy levels at the Mini-Warehouse Properties remained stable at 90%
for the three months ended June 30, 1997 and 1998. Cost of operations (including
management fees) increased $85,000, or 6%, to $1,546,000 from $1,461,000 for the
three months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively. The increase was
primarily attributable to increases in advertising and promotion (due primarily
to the PSI national telephone reservation center), property tax, and office
expenses. Accordingly, for the Mini-Warehouse Properties, property net operating
income increased by $62,000, or 3%, from $2,370,000 to $2,432,000 for the three
months ended June 30, 1997 and 1998, respectively.
SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1998 COMPARED TO SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1997:
Rental income for the Mini-Warehouse Properties was $7,824,000 compared
to $7,537,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively,
representing an increase of $287,000, or 4%. The increase in rental income was
primarily attributable to increased rental rates. The monthly average realized
rent per square foot for the Mini-Warehouse Properties was $.60 compared to $.58
for the six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively. The weighted
average occupancy levels at the Mini-Warehouse Properties remained stable at 89%
for the six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1998. Cost of operations (including
management fees) increased $60,000, or 2%, to $3,050,000 from $2,990,000 for the
six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively. The increase was
primarily attributable to increases in advertising and promotion (due primarily
to the PSI national telephone reservation center) and property tax expenses,
partially offset by a decrease in payroll expense. Accordingly, for the
Mini-Warehouse Properties, property net operating income increased by $227,000,
or 5%, from $4,547,000 to $4,774,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1997 and
1998, respectively.

<PAGE>
Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------
The Partnership has adequate sources of cash to finance its operations,
both on a short-term and long-term basis, primarily from internally generated
cash from property operations and cash reserves. Cash generated from operations
and distribution from real estate entities ($3,288,000 for the six months ended
June 30, 1998) has been sufficient to meet all current obligations of the
Partnership.
During 1998, the Partnership anticipates approximately $313,000 of
capital improvements for its wholly-owned mini warehouses. Total capital
improvements were $106,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1998 with respect
to these properties.
The Partnership paid distributions to the limited and general partners
totaling $1,782,000 ($13.92 per unit) and $218,000, respectively, during the
first six months of 1998. Future distribution rates may be adjusted to levels
which are supported by operating cash flow after capital improvements and any
other necessary obligations.
