PART I
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
General
Wells Real Estate Fund I (the "Partnership") is a Georgia public limited
partnership having Leo F. Wells, III and Wells Capital, Inc., a Georgia
corporation, as General Partners. The Partnership was formed on April 26, 1984,
for the purpose of acquiring, developing, constructing, owning, operating,
improving, leasing and otherwise managing for investment purposes income-
producing commercial or industrial properties.
On September 6, 1984, the Partnership commenced a public offering of its limited
partnership units pursuant to a Registration Statement filed on Form S-11 under
the Securities Act of 1933. The Partnership terminated its offering on
September 5, 1986, and received gross proceeds of $35,321,000 representing
subscriptions from 4,895 Limited Partners, composed of two classes of limited
partnership interests, Class A and Class B limited partnership units.
The Partnership owns interests in the following joint ventures: (i) Wells-Baker
Associates, a joint venture between the Partnership and Wells & Associates, (ii)
Fund I-Fund II Tucker, and (iii) the Fund I, II, II-OW, VI, VII Joint Venture
As of December 31, 1999, the Partnership owned, directly or through its
ownership in joint ventures, interests in the following properties: (i) Paces
Pavilion, a medical office building located in Atlanta, Georgia, owned by the
Partnership, (ii) The Crowe's Crossing Property, a shopping center located in
DeKalb County, Georgia, owned by the Partnership, (iii) The Black Oak Plaza
Property, a shopping center located in Knoxville, Tennessee, owned by the
Partnership, (iv) The Peachtree Place Property, two commercial office buildings
located in Atlanta, Georgia, owned by Wells-Baker Associates, (v) The Tucker
Property, a retail shopping and commercial office complex located in Tucker,
Georgia, owned by Fund I-Fund II Tucker, and (vi) The Cherokee Property, a
shopping center located in Cherokee County, Georgia, owned by the Fund I, II,
II-OW, VI, VII Joint Venture. All of the foregoing properties were acquired on
an all cash basis.
Employees
The Partnership has no direct employees. The employees of Wells Capital, Inc.,
a General Partner of the Partnership, perform a full range of real estate
services including leasing and property management, accounting, asset management
and investor relations for the Partnership. See Item 11--"Compensation of
General Partners and Affiliates" for a summary of the fees paid to the General
Partners and their affiliates during the fiscal year ended December 31, 1999.
Insurance
Wells Management Company, Inc., an affiliate of the General Partners, carries
comprehensive liability and extended coverage with respect to all the properties
owned directly or indirectly by the Partnership. In the opinion of management,
the properties are adequately insured.
-2-
<PAGE>
Competition
The Partnership will experience competition for tenants from owners and managers
of competing projects which may include the General Partners and their
affiliates. As a result, the Partnership may be required to provide free rent,
reduced charges for tenant improvements, and other inducements, all of which may
have an adverse impact on results of operations. At the time the Partnership
elects to dispose of its properties, the Partnership will also be in competition
with sellers of similar properties to locate suitable purchasers for its
properties.
ITEM 2. PROPERTIES
The Partnership owns six properties directly or through its ownership in joint
ventures of which two are office buildings, three are retail buildings, and one
is a combined office and retail project. The Partnership does not have control
over the operations of the joint ventures; however, it does exercise significant
influence. Accordingly, investment in joint ventures is recorded on the equity
method. The Wells-Baker Associate joint venture is consolidated with Fund I
since the ownership is 89.95%. As of December 31, 1999 these properties were
80% occupied, up from 78.8% at December 31, 1998 and 1997.
The following table shows lease expirations during each of the next ten years as
of December 31, 1999, assuming no exercise of renewal options or termination
rights:

the Fund II-Fund II-OW Joint Venture, Wells Fund II contributed its joint
venture interest in the Tucker Joint Venture to the Fund II-Fund II-OW
Joint Venture as part of its capital contribution. On January 1, 1991, the
Cherokee Joint Venture, which is defined below, was merged into the Tucker
Joint Venture forming a new joint venture ("Tucker-Cherokee Joint
Venture"). As described below, the Cherokee Joint Venture was also a joint
venture between the Partnership and the Fund II-Fund II-OW Joint Venture.
Under the terms of the Amended and Restated Joint Venture Agreement of Fund

Joint Venture into the Tucker-Cherokee Joint Venture.
On August 1, 1995, the Partnership and the Fund II-Fund II-OW Joint Venture
entered into another amendment to effect the contribution of the Cherokee
Project to the Fund I, II, II-OW, VI, VII Joint Venture, as described
below. As a result, the name of the joint venture owning the Tucker
Property was changed back to "Fund I and Fund II Tucker". The
Partnership's percentage interest in the Tucker Property remained unchanged
as a result of the transaction.
Both the Partnership and the Fund II-Fund II-OW Joint Venture have funded
the cost of completing the Tucker Property through capital contributions
which were paid as progressive stages of construction were completed. As
of December 31, 1999, the Partnership had contributed a total of
$6,194,634, and the Fund II-Fund II-OW Joint Venture had contributed a
total of $4,764,585 for the acquisition and development of the Tucker

-6-
<PAGE>
Joint Venture. On January 1, 1991, the Cherokee Joint Venture merged with
the Tucker Joint Venture to form the Tucker-Cherokee Joint Venture. As
described above, the Tucker Joint Venture was also a joint venture between
the Partnership and the Fund II-Fund II-OW Joint Venture. Under the terms
of the Amended and Restated Joint Venture Agreement of Fund I and Fund II
Tucker-Cherokee, the Partnership's percentage interest in the Cherokee
Property remained unchanged as a result of the merger of the Cherokee Joint
Venture into the Tucker-Cherokee Joint Venture.

VII 11%.
The Cherokee Property is anchored by a 67,115 square foot lease with Kroger
Food/Drug ("Kroger") which expires in 2011. Kroger's original lease was
for 45,528 square feet. In 1994, Kroger expanded to the current 67,115
square feet which is approximately 65% of the total rentable square feet in
the Property. As of December 31, 1999, the Cherokee Property was
approximately 97% occupied by 21 tenants, including Kroger.
Kroger is the only tenant occupying ten percent or more of the rentable
square footage. Kroger is a retail grocery chain. The other tenants in
the shopping center provide typical retail shopping services.
The Kroger lease called for an annual rent of $392,915 which increased to
$589,102 on August 16, 1995, due to the expansion from 45,528 square feet
to 67,115 square feet. The lease expires March 31, 2011 with Kroger
entitled to five successive renewals each for a term of five years, upon

held by a total of 3,682 Limited Partners and 42,568 outstanding Class B Units

market for the units will develop. Under the Partnership Agreement, the General
Partners have the right to prohibit transfers of units.
Class A Unit holders are entitled to an annual 9% noncumulative distribution
preference over Class B Unit holders as to distributions from Cash Available for
Distribution but are initially allocated none of the depreciation, amortization,
cost recovery, and interest expense. These items are allocated to Class B Unit
holders until their capital account balances have been reduced to zero.
Cash Available for Distribution to the Limited Partners is distributed on a
quarterly basis. To date, no cash distributions have been made to Limited
Partners holding Class B Units during 1999. The Partnership has reserved all
operating cash flow during 1998 and the first two quarters of 1999 which would

increase for 1999 was due to increased equity in joint ventures and increased
interest income. Increased equity in joint ventures is due to increased rental
renewal rates at the Tucker Property and increased occupancy and lower operating
expenses at the Cherokee Property. Interest income increased due to increased
cash and cash equivalents as distributions to limited partners was reserved for
future tenant improvements at the Pace Pavilion Property. Expenses of the
Partnership were $1,811,046 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1999, down
from $1,973,731 for 1998 and $1,945,614 for 1997. The decrease in 1999 over
1998 is due primarily to decreased legal fees at Black Oak Plaza and decreased
property operating expenses in the areas of property security and general
repairs

and maintenance. As a result of increased revenue and decreased expenses net
loss decreased to $101,904 in 1999 as compared to net loss of $337,675 in 1998
and net loss of $305,296 in 1997.
The Partnership's cash distribution to the Limited Partners holding Class A
Units was $6.53 per unit for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1999 and $10.85
per unit for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1997. No cash distributions
were made to the Limited Partners holding Class A Units for the year ending
December 31, 1998. No distributions have been paid to Class B Units or to the
General Partners.
The Partnership has recently made the decision to begin selling its properties.
At this time, four properties have been identified that will be offered for sale
within the next several months. The Partnership's goal is to have all Fund I
properties sold by the end of 2002. As the properties are sold, all proceeds
will be returned to the limited partners in accordance with the Partnership's
prospectus. Management estimates that the net realizable value of each of the
properties exceeds the carrying value of the corresponding real estate assets;
consequently, no impairment loss has been recorded. In the event that the net
sales proceeds are less than the carrying value of the property sold, the
Partnership would recognize a loss on the sale. Management is not contractually
or financially obligated to sell any of its properties, and it is management's
current intent to fully realize the Partnership's investment in real estate.
The success of the Partnership's future operations and the ability to realize
investment in its assets will be dependent on the Partnership's ability to
maintain rental rates, occupancy and an appropriate level of operating expenses
in future years. Management believes that the steps that it is taking will
enable the Partnership to realize its investment in its assets.

As of December 31, 1999, the Partnership's ownership interest in the Paces
Pavilion Property, Black Oak Plaza and Crowe's Crossing Shopping Center is 100%,

Rental income increased to $106,993 in 1999 from $79,054 in 1998 due to a tenant
that moved in during the second quarter of 1999 and decreased from $134,951 in
1997 to $79,054 in 1998 due to decreased tenant occupancy.
Management and leasing fees increased to $6,420 in 1999 from $4,800 in 1998 and
decreased from $8,652 in 1997 to $4,800 in 1998 due to fluctuation in tenant
occupancy.
Other operating expenses increased to $262,295 in 1999 from $243,744 in 1998 due
primarily to an increase in association dues from $189,209 in 1998 to $219,923
in 1999 but remained stable from 1997 to 1998.
Currently, there are four tenants occupying 19.15% of the premises. Management
is actively seeking replacement tenants for the remaining space at Paces
Pavilion. Because of the low rental income, increased expenses and capital
improvements, no cash was generated to the Partnership for 1999, 1998 and 1997.
Rental income is currently being generated through four (4) leaseholders
occupying 5,062 square feet.
Real estate taxes were paid by HCA directly during the years of occupancy at the
Paces Pavilion Property and are included in the Paces Pavilion Condominium
Association monthly fee for 1999, 1998 and 1997.
The Partnership's ownership percentage has remained constant at 100% for the
years 1999, 1998, and 1997.

Rental increased for 1999 as compared to 1998 due to increased occupancy and
rental renewal rates. Rental income increased in 1998 compared to 1997 but not
as significantly as the occupancy increase from 86% to 94% due primarily to this
increase in occupancy being attributable to the fourth quarter of 1998. Other
operating expenses increased to $97,219 in 1999 as compared to $71,925 in 1998
due to significant HVAC and plumbing repairs. The lower operating expenses in
1998 as compared to both 1999 and 1997 is due to a recovery of bad debt of
$13,000 and water reimbursements from tenants of approximately $12,000.
Cash generated to the Partnership decreased in 1999 as compared to 1998 due to
decreased net income and capitalized leasing commissions.
Real estate taxes were $83,402 in 1999, $87,045 in 1998, and $84,973 in 1997.

Rental income decreased to $378,447 in 1999 as compared to $441,890 in 1998 and
$447,027 in 1997 due to fluctuations in tenant occupancy at the property.
Depreciation remained relatively stable in 1999 as compared to 1998 but
increased in 1998 as compared to 1997 due to additional building and landscaping
improvements as well as tenant improvements for two new tenants in 1998. Other
operating expenses decreased in 1999 as compared to 1998 and 1997 due to
significantly lower expenses in the areas of parking lot repairs, security,
legal, and bad debt. Security was approximately $18,000 in 1999 as compared to
$28,445 in 1998 and $25,160 in 1997, legal was approximately $13,700 in 1999 as

Rental income decreased in 1999 as compared to 1998 and 1997 due to fluctuations
in occupancy. Occupancy decreased from 95.4% in 1997 to 74% in 1998. Although
occupancy at December 31, 1999 is at 100%, the year began at 74%, increased to
85% and did not become 100% occupied until December of 1999. Other operating
expenses remained relatively constant in 1999 as compared to 1997 but were
higher in 1998 due to HVAC and roof repairs. As some of the capitalized tenant
improvements have become fully depreciated, depreciation expense has declined
for 1999 and 1998 as compared to 1997.
Real estate taxes were $14,349 for 1999 and $15,650 each for 1998 and 1997.
The Partnership holds an 89.95% equity interest in the joint venture, and Wells

Rental income increased in 1999 compared to 1998 even though occupancy decreased
due to increased rental renewal rates and the decrease in occupancy moving
slowly downward throughout the year. The increased rental income for 1998 as
compared to 1997 was due to increased tenant occupancy at the property. The
increase in depreciation expense for 1999 was due to capitalized building
repairs. Other operating expenses decreased for 1999 as compared to both 1998
and 1997 due to significant variable expenses for those years. Expenses were
higher in 1998 due to sewer and main water line repairs and were higher in 1997
due to HVAC repairs and painting expense.
Real estate taxes were $91,970 in 1999, $93,697 in 1998 and $108,836 in 1997.

Rental income increased from $909,831 in 1998 to $945,22 in 1999, due to an
increase in occupancy from 91% in 1998 to 97% in 1999. Rental income increased
in 1998 over 1997 due primarily to a one time adjustment made to the straight
line rent receivable in 1997. Management and leasing expenses increased from
$82,517 in 1998 to $94,149 in 1999, due to an increase in occupancy and rental
renewal rates. Operating expenses of the property decreased to $68,090 in 1999
from $84,676 in 1998 due to increased CAM billings to tenants that were
underaccrued in 1998, offset by increased expenditures for tenant improvements,
HVAC repairs and a partial demolition of a tenant suite in 1999 and decreased
from $138,294 in 1997 to $84,676 in 1998 due to decreased expenditures for
tenant improvements, common area expenses, and legal fees. Net income of the
property increased to $355,082 in 1999 from $298,062 in 1998 and $223,497 in
1997, due to the reasons discussed above.
Real estate taxes were $87,411 for 1999, $77,311 for 1998, and $67,259 for 1997.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
During its offering, which terminated on September 5, 1986, the Partnership
raised a total of $35,321,000 through the sale of 141,284 units. No additional
Units will be sold by the Partnership. From the original funds raised, the
Partnership had invested a total of $28,253,054 in properties, paid $2,225,992
in acquisition and advisory fees, $4,836,633 in selling commissions and
organization and offering expenses, and is maintaining a working capital reserve
of $5,321.

<PAGE>
Since the Partnership is an investment partnership formed for the purpose of
acquiring, owning, and operating income-producing real property and has invested
all of its funds available for investment, it is unlikely that the Partnership
will acquire interests in any additional properties, and the Partnership's
capital resources are anticipated to remain relatively stable over the holding
period of its investments.
The Partnership's net cash provided by operating activities decreased to
$614,844 in 1999 as compared to $632,894 in 1998 due primarily to increased
lease acquisition costs, changes in receivables and payables, and increased
prepaid assets. Net cash provided by investing activities increased from
$239,519 in 1997 and $391,609 in 1998 to $414,506 in 1999 due to decreased
capitalized building and tenant improvements. Net cash used in financing
activities increased in 1999 as compared to 1998 and decreased in 1998 as
compared to 1997. These changes are due to the reserving of distributions to
limited partners for the first and second quarters of 1999 and all of 1998 for
the anticipated tenant improvements at the Paces Pavilion Property. As a
result, primarily of the reserving of distributions, cash and cash equivalents
has increased in both 1999 and 1998.
The Partnership is unaware of any other demands, commitments, events, or capital
expenditures other than that which is required for the normal operations of its
properties or the properties in which it owns a joint venture interest that will
result in the Partnership's liquidity increasing or decreasing in any material
way.
Inflation
Real estate has not been affected significantly by inflation in the past three
years due to the relatively low inflation rate. There are provisions in the
majority of tenant leases executed by the Partnership to protect the Partnership
from the impact of inflation. These leases contain common area maintenance
charges ("CAM charges"), real estate tax and insurance reimbursements on a per
square foot bases, or in some cases, annual reimbursement of operating expenses
above a certain per square foot allowance. These provisions should reduce the
Partnership's exposure to increases in costs and operating expenses resulting
from inflation. In addition, a number of the Partnership's leases are for terms
of less than five years which may permit the Partnership to replace existing
leases with new leases at higher base rental rates if the existing leases are
below market rate. There is no assurance, however, that the Partnership would
be able to replace existing leases with new leases at higher base rentals.
Year 2000
The Partnership made the transition into the year 2000 without any information
systems, business operations or facilities related system problems. Management
believes that there are no other year 2000 related issues that may require
disclosure.

accounts in each fiscal year. In addition, after the Limited Partners receive
their distributions equal to 9% of their capital contributions and the General
Partners receive their distributions equal to 10% of the total distributions for
such year, the General Partners will receive a participation of 10% of the
additional distributions from cash available for distribution, 9% of which shall
be paid to the General Partners as a Partnership Management Fee. The General
Partners will also receive a participation in net sale proceeds and net
financing proceeds equal to 15% of the residual proceeds available for
distribution after the Limited Partners have received a return of their adjusted
capital contributions plus a 15% cumulative return on their adjusted capital
contributions. The General Partners received no partnership cash flow or net
sale proceeds during 1999.
Property Management and Leasing Fees
Wells Management Company, Inc., an affiliate of the General Partners, will
receive compensation for supervising the management of the Partnership
properties equal to 6% (3% management and 3% leasing) of rental income. In no
event will such fees exceed the sum of (i) 6% of the gross receipts of each
property, plus (ii) a separate one-time fee for initial rent-up or leasing-up of
development properties in an amount not to exceed the fee customarily charged in
arm's-length transactions by others rendering similar services in the same
geographic area for similar properties. With respect to properties leased on a
net basis for a period of ten years or longer, property management fees will not
exceed 1% of gross revenues from such leases, plus a one-time initial leasing
fee of 3% of the gross revenues which are payable over the first five years of
the term of such net leases. The management and leasing of the Crowe's Crossing
Property and the Black Oak Plaza Property is performed by an outside agent,
Merchants Management, since the third quarter of 1998 for which they receive a
3% fee and Wells Management is accrued the balance. Management and leasing fees
as well as initial lease-up fees due from the Partnership and with respect to
the Partnership's interest in joint ventures owning properties are currently
being expensed but not paid to Wells Management Company, Inc. As set forth
above, as of December 31, 1999, deferred property management and leasing fees
totaling $2,397,266 were due to Wells Management Company, Inc., of which
$128,077 was accrued for fiscal year 1999.
Real Estate Commissions
In connection with the sale of Partnership properties, the General Partners or
their affiliates may receive commissions not exceeding the lesser of (A) 50% of
the commissions customarily charged by other brokers in arm's-length
transactions involving comparable properties in the same geographic area or (B)
3% of the gross sales price of the property, and provided that payments of such
commissions will be made only after Limited Partners have received prior
distributions totaling 100% of their capital contributions plus a 6% cumulative
return on their adjusted capital contributions. During 1999, no real estate
commissions were paid to the General Partners or their affiliates.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
To Wells Real Estate Fund I and Subsidiary:
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of WELLS REAL
ESTATE FUND I (a Georgia public limited partnership) AND SUBSIDIARY as of
December 31, 1999 and 1998 and the related consolidated statements of loss,
partners' capital, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period
ended December 31, 1999. These financial statements and the schedule referred
to below are the responsibility of the Partnership's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial
statements and schedule based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted
in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the
audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and
schedule are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Wells Real Estate
Fund I and subsidiary as of December 31, 1999 and 1998 and the results of their
operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended
December 31, 1999 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in
the United States.
Our audits were made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole. Schedule III--Real Estate Investments
and Accumulated Depreciation as of December 31, 1999 is presented for purposes
of complying with the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and is not part
of the basic financial statements. This schedule has been subjected to the
auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and,
in our opinion, fairly states in all material respects the financial data
required to be set forth therein in relation to the basic financial statements
taken as a whole.

WELLS REAL ESTATE FUND I AND SUBSIDIARY
(A Georgia Public Limited Partnership)
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 1999, 1998, AND 1997
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Organization and Business
Wells Real Estate Fund I (the "Partnership") is a public limited
partnership organized on April 26, 1984 under the laws of the state of
Georgia. The general partners are Leo F. Wells, III and Wells Capital, Inc.
(the "Company"). The Partnership has two classes of limited partnership
interests, Class A and Class B units. Limited partners may vote to, among
other things, (a) amend the partnership agreement, subject to certain
limitations, (b) change the business purpose or investment objectives of
the Partnership, and (c) remove a general partner. A majority vote on any
of the above described matters will bind the Partnership, without the
concurrence of the general partners. Each limited partnership unit has
equal voting rights, regardless of class.
The Partnership was formed to acquire and operate commercial real
properties, including properties which are either to be developed,
currently under development or construction, newly constructed, or have
operating histories. As of December 31, 1999, the Partnership owned the
following properties directly: (i) the Paces Pavilion Property ("Paces
Pavilion"), a medical office building located in Atlanta, Georgia; (ii) the
Crowe's Crossing Property, a shopping center located in DeKalb County,
Georgia; (iii) the Black Oak Property, a shopping center located in
Knoxville, Tennessee; and (iv) the Peachtree Place Property ("Wells-
Baker"), two commercial office buildings located in Atlanta, Georgia. In
addition, through its investment in joint ventures, the Partnership owns
interests in the following properties: Heritage Place at Tucker ("Tucker"),
a retail shopping and commercial office complex located in Tucker, Georgia,
and the Cherokee Commons Shopping Center ("Cherokee Commons"), a shopping
center located in Cherokee County, Georgia.
Basis of Presentation
The financial statements include the accounts of the Partnership and Wells-
Baker. The Partnership's interest in Wells-Baker was approximately 90% at
December 31, 1999 and 1998. All significant intercompany balances have been
eliminated in consolidation.
Minority Interest
Minority interest represents the interest of Wells and Associates, Inc., an
affiliate of the general partners, in Wells-Baker. At December 31, 1999 and
1998, Wells and Associates, Inc.'s interest in Wells-Baker was
approximately 10%.
F-7
<PAGE>
Use of Estimates and Factors Affecting the Partnership
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the
financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.
The Partnership has recently begun considering selling its properties.
Management estimates that the net realizable value of each of the
properties exceeds the carrying value of the corresponding real estate
assets; consequently, no impairment loss has been recorded. In the event
that the net sales proceeds are less than the carrying value of the
property sold, the Partnership would recognize a loss on the sale.
Management is not contractually or financially obligated to sell any of its
properties, and it is management's current intent to fully realize the
Partnership's investment in real estate. The success of the Partnership's
future operations and the ability to realize the investment in its assets
will be dependent on the Partnership's ability to maintain rental rates,
occupancy, and an appropriate level of operating expenses in future years.
Management believes that the steps that it is taking will enable the
Partnership to realize its investment in its assets.
One significant tenant at Paces Pavilion represented 100% of rental income
of the property for the year ended December 31, 1996, of which
approximately 25% was received from sublessees. This tenant vacated the
property effective December 31, 1996 and the property is currently only 19%
occupied. The Partnership is actively seeking replacement tenants for
occupancy of the remainder of the space at Paces Pavilion; however, in the
event that replacement tenants require significant tenant improvements and
renovations to the space to be leased, it is anticipated that such amounts
may be funded from cash of the Partnership which would otherwise have been
distributed to the Limited Partners. In such event, cash distributions to
Limited Partners holding Class A Units may be reduced or suspended pending
funding of amounts required for any such tenant improvements or
renovations. As of January 20, 2000, the Partnership has not been
successful in re-leasing a substantial portion of Paces Pavilion.
Income Taxes
The Partnership is not subject to federal or state income taxes, and
therefore, none have been provided for in the accompanying financial
statements. The partners are required to include their respective shares of
profits and losses in their individual income tax returns.
Distribution of Net Cash From Operations
Cash available for distribution is distributed on a cumulative
noncompounded basis to limited partners quarterly. In accordance with the
partnership agreement, distributions are paid first to limited partners
holding Class A units until they have received a 9% per annum return on
their adjusted capital contributions, as defined. Cash available for
distribution is then distributed to limited partners holding Class B units
until they have received a 9% per annum return on their adjusted capital
contributions, as defined. Any remaining cash available for distribution is
split between the limited partners and the general partners on a basis of
90% and 10%, respectively.
F-8
<PAGE>
Distribution of Sales Proceeds
Upon sales of properties, the net sales proceeds are distributed in the
following order:
. To limited partners, on a per unit basis, until all limited
partners have received 100% of their adjusted capital
contributions, as defined
. To limited partners holding Class B units until they receive an
amount equal to the net cash available for distribution received by
the limited partners holding Class A units
. To all limited partners until they receive a cumulative 15% per
annum return on their adjusted capital contributions, as defined
. To all the general partners until they have received 100% of their
capital contributions, as defined
. Thereafter, 85% to the limited partners and 15% to the general
partners
Allocation of Net Income, Net Loss, and Gain on Sale
Net income is defined as net income recognized by the Partnership,
excluding deductions for depreciation and amortization. Net income, as
defined, of the Partnership will be allocated each year in the same
proportions that net cash from operations is distributed to the partners.
To the extent the Partnership's net income in any year exceeds net cash
from operations, it will be allocated 99% to the limited partners and 1% to
the general partners.
Net loss, depreciation and amortization deductions for each fiscal year
will be allocated as follows: (a) 99% to the Class B limited partners and
1% to the general partners until their capital accounts are reduced to
zero, (b) then to any partner having a positive balance in his capital
account in an amount not to exceed such positive balance, and (c)
thereafter to the general partners.
Gain on the sale or exchange of the Partnership's properties will be
allocated generally in the same manner that the net proceeds from such sale
are distributed to partners after the following allocations are made, if
applicable: (a) allocations made pursuant to a qualified income offset
provision in the partnership agreement, (b) allocations to partners having
negative capital accounts until all negative capital accounts have been
restored to zero, and (c) allocations to Class B limited partners in
amounts equal to deductions for depreciation and amortization previously
allocated to them with respect to the specific partnership property sold,
but not in excess of the amount of gain on sale recognized by the
Partnership with respect to the sale of such property.
Real Estate Assets
Real estate assets held by the Partnership directly or through investments
in affiliated joint ventures are stated at cost less accumulated
depreciation. Major improvements and betterments are capitalized when they
extend the useful life of the related asset. All repairs and maintenance
are expensed as incurred.
Management continually monitors events and changes in circumstances that
could indicate carrying amounts of real estate assets may not be
recoverable. When events or changes in circumstances are present that
indicate the carrying amounts of real estate assets may not be recoverable,
management assesses the recoverability of real estate assets by determining
whether the carrying value of such real estate assets will be recovered
through the future cash flows expected from the use of the asset and its
F-9
<PAGE>
eventual disposition. Management has determined that there has been no
impairment in the carrying value of real estate assets held by the
Partnership or its affiliated joint ventures as of December 31, 1999.
Depreciation for buildings and improvements is calculated using the
straight-line method over 25 years.
Revenue Recognition
All leases on real estate assets held by the Partnership are classified as
operating leases and the related rental income is recognized on a straight-
line basis over the terms of the respective leases.
Deferred Lease Acquisition Costs
Costs incurred to procure operating leases are capitalized and amortized on
a straight-line basis over the terms of the related leases.
Investment in Joint Ventures
The Partnership does not have control over the operations of the joint
ventures; however, it does exercise significant influence. Accordingly,
investment in joint ventures is recorded using the equity method of
accounting. The joint ventures follow the same significant accounting
policies as the Partnership.
Cash available for distribution and allocations of profit and loss to the
Partnership by the joint ventures are made in accordance with the terms of
the individual joint venture agreements. Generally, these items are
allocated in proportion to the partners' respective ownership interests.
Cash is paid by the joint ventures to the Partnership on a quarterly basis.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For the purposes of the statements of cash flows, the Partnership considers
all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three
months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents include cash and
short-term investments. Short-term investments are stated at cost, which
approximates fair value, and consist of investments in money market
accounts.
Per Unit Data
Net income (loss) per unit with respect to the Partnership for the years
ended December 31, 1999, 1998, and 1997 is computed based on the average
number of units outstanding during the period.
2. RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS

The Partnership entered into property management agreements with Merchant's
Management, Inc. (an unrelated third party) and Wells Management Company,
Inc. ("Wells Management"), an affiliate of the general partners. In
consideration for supervising the management of its properties, the
Partnership pays Merchant's Management, Inc. management and leasing fees
equal to 1.5% of the gross revenues for management and 1.5% of the gross
revenues for leasing. With respect to Wells Management, the Partnership
incurs management and leasing fees equal to (a) 1.5% of the gross revenues
for management and 1.5% of the gross revenues for leasing, plus a separate
fee for the one-time initial lease-up of newly constructed properties in an
amount not to exceed the fee customarily charged in arm's-length
transactions by others rendering similar services in the same geographic
area for similar properties or (b) in the case of commercial properties,
which are leased on a long-term net basis (ten or more years), 1% of the
gross revenues except for initial leasing fees equal to 3% of the gross
revenues over the first five years of the lease term. The Partnership's
aggregate management and leasing fees are not to exceed a maximum of 6% of
annual gross revenues.
The Partnership incurred management and leasing fees and lease acquisition
costs, both directly and at the joint venture level, for the years ended
December 31, 1999, 1998, and 1997 of $200,249, $227,230, and $147,282.
Wells Management has elected to defer the receipt of its portion of the
management and leasing fees from the Partnership and with respect to the
Partnership's interest in properties owned through joint ventures. As of
December 31, 1999 and 1998, this deferral totaled $1,686,651 and
$1,624,749, respectively, and is included in due to affiliate in the
accompanying balance sheets.
The Company performs certain administrative services for the Partnership,
such as accounting and other Partnership administration, and incurs the
related expenses. Such expenses are allocated among the various Wells Real
Estate Funds based on time spent on each fund by individual administrative
personnel. In the opinion of management, such allocation is a reasonable
estimation of such expenses.
The general partners are also general partners of other Wells Real Estate
Funds. As such, there may exist conflicts of interest where the general
partners in the capacity as general partners for other Wells Real Estate
Funds may be in competition with the Partnership for tenants in similar
geographic markets.

Fund I and II Tucker
Tucker and Cherokee Commons were previously held in a joint venture between the
Partnership and Fund II and II-OW, a Georgia joint venture having Wells Real
Estate Fund II and Wells Real Estate Fund II-OW as joint partners. The joint
ventures were formed for the purpose of owning, developing, and operating
Cherokee Commons and Tucker. In 1991, the Tucker and Cherokee Commons joint
ventures were merged into a new joint venture, the Fund I and II Tucker-Cherokee
Joint Venture. Under the terms of the joint venture agreement, the ownership
interests of the Partnership and Fund II and II-OW in each individual property
remained unchanged.
On August 1, 1995, the joint venture assigned its ownership in Cherokee Commons
to the Fund I, II, II-OW, VI, and VII Associates joint venture. Upon the
assignment of Cherokee Commons, the joint venture was renamed Fund I and II
Tucker. Tucker is a retail shopping center containing approximately 29,858
square feet and a commercial office building complex containing approximately
67,465 square feet in Tucker, DeKalb County, Georgia.
In 1996, one of the tenants in Tucker experienced a fire. In 1996, Fund I and
II Tucker received an initial insurance settlement of $143,944 for damages to
the building. In 1997, an additional $104,895 was received as a final insurance
settlement for the fire damages discussed above and storm damages that occurred
in 1997. In addition, a loss from the retirement of real estate assets of
$58,952 was incurred. The resulting net gain on real estate assets of $45,943
is included in the following statement of income. Additional insurance proceeds
of $27,319 related to these damages were received in 1998 and are reflected as a
gain on real estate assets in the following statement of income.
