ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
(a) OVERVIEW
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Partnership's
Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this
Form 10-Q.
The Partnership currently owns a 62.26% interest in the Sierra Vista Partnership
which operates the Sierra Vista property. In addition, the Partnership holds a
24.94% interest in Sorrento I Partners ("SIP"), which operates the Sierra
Sorrento I property.
2
(b) RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Revenues for the three months ended June 30, 1996 increased by $28,000, or 17%,
when compared to the corresponding period in the prior year, principally as a
result of the billing of common area maintenance fees in May 1996. These fees
were billed in the first quarter of 1995 but not billed until the second quarter
in 1996. An increase in occupancy has been offset by a reduction in rental rates
on new leases, causing revenues for the six month period to remain relatively
unchanged. Operating expenses decreased by $21,000, or 8%, primarily due to
lower administrative costs and other expense cutting measures implemented by
management.
Interest expense decreased $65,000, or 32%, due to the restructuring of the note
in August 1995. The annual interest rate on the note was reduced from 3% above
Bank of America's prime rate to a fixed rate of 8% retroactive to June 1995.
The Partnership's share of income (loss) from investment in SIP was $239,000 for
the six months ended June 30, 1996 compared to ($144,000) for the corresponding
period in the prior year due to SIP's exercise of a discounted payoff option in
May 1996. SIP recorded an extraordinary gain of $1,200,000 in connection with
this transaction.
(c) LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
As of June 30, 1996, the Partnership is in an illiquid position. Total
unrestricted cash and billed receivables amount to $64,000 compared to $287,000
of accrued and other liabilities. Significant capital expenditures will be
required in 1996 for tenant improvements and leasing commissions for the Sierra
Vista property as the Partnership attempts to increase occupancy. The source of
these funds will be net cash flow from operation of the property and advances
from Sierra Mira Mesa Partners ("SMMP").
Sierra Vista Partners was formed, in part, to provide the Property with a source
of cash for tenant improvements and leasing commissions. As required, the
Partnership's joint venture partner (SMMP) either advances or contributes cash
to meet the Partnership's requirements. SMMP has adequate resources to make the
necessary advances during the foreseeable future.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. ORGANIZATION
In April 1993, the Partnership created a general partnership (Sorrento I
Partners) with Sierra Mira Mesa Partners ("SMMP") to facilitate cash
contributions by SMMP for the continued development and operation of the Sierra
Sorrento I property. In February 1994, the Partnership formed a joint venture
with SMMP known as Sierra Vista Partners to facilitate cash contributions by
SMMP for the continued development and operation of the Sierra Vista property.
The Partnership Agreements of Sorrento I Partners and Sierra Vista Partners (the
"Agreements") were amended effective January 1, 1995 to consider both
contributions and distributions when calculating each partners' percentage
interest at January 1 of each year as called for by the Agreements. As a result
of this Amendment, the Partnership's percentage interest in Sierra Vista
Partners increased from 61.43% to 62.26%. This Amendment had no impact on the
percentage interest of Sorrento I Partners. The effect of this change on the
minority interest share of consolidated joint venture loss for the three months
ended March 31, 1996 was recognized in the second quarter.
2. BASIS OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements include
the accounts of the Partnership and Sierra Vista Partners, a majority owned
joint venture at June 30, 1996. All significant intercompany balances and
transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
In the opinion of the Partnership's management, these unaudited financial
statements reflect all adjustments which are necessary for a fair presentation
of its financial position at June 30, 1996 and results of operations and cash
flows for the periods presented. All adjustments included in these statements
are of a normal and recurring nature. These financial statements should be read
in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto contained in the
Annual Report of the Partnership for the year ended December 31, 1995.
3. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
In 1994, all of the common stock of S-P Properties, Inc., the General Partner of
the Partnership, was purchased by Finance Factors, Inc. from Carlsberg
Management Company ("CMC"). CMC continued to manage the affairs of the
Partnership through March 31, 1995.

and Sierra Mira Mesa Partners, an affiliate, to develop and operate the real
property known as Sierra Sorrento I (the "Property"), an industrial building
located in San Diego, California. At June 30, 1996, the Partnership has a 24.94%
equity interest with its contribution of Sierra Sorrento I and the related debt.
This investment is stated at cost and is adjusted for the Partnership's share in

venture (equity method).
