NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 1999
(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
for the year ended December 31, 1998.
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 September 30, 1999, the results of operations for the three
and nine months ended September 30, 1999 and 1998 and cash flows for
the nine months then ended.
3. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September
30, 1999 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.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
- --------------------------
When used within this document, the words "expects," "believes,"
"anticipates," "should," "estimates," and similar expressions are intended to
identify "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of that term in Section
27A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1933, as amended, and in Section 21F of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Such forward-looking statements
involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors, which may
cause the actual results and performance of the Partnership to be materially
different from those expressed or implied in the forward looking statements.
Such factors include the impact of competition from new and existing real estate
facilities which could impact rents and occupancy levels at the real estate
facilities that the Partnership has an interest in; the Partnership's ability to
effectively compete in the markets that it does business in; the impact of the
regulatory environment as well as national, state, and local laws and
regulations including, without limitation, those governing Partnerships; and the
impact of general economic conditions upon rental rates and occupancy levels at
the real estate facilities that the Partnership has an interest in.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
- ---------------------
THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1999 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER
30, 1998:
The Partnership's net income was $782,000 and $827,000 for the three
months ended September 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively, representing an decrease
of $45,000, or 5%. The decrease was primarily due to the Partnership's share of
lower property operations at the real estate facilities that the Partnership has
an interest in.
Property Operations
- -------------------
Rental income for the Partnership's wholly-owned mini-warehouse
properties was stable at $149,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1999
and 1998. Cost of operations (including management fees) remained stable at
$61,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1999 and 1998. Accordingly, for
the Partnership's wholly-owned mini-warehouse properties, property net operating
income remained stable at $88,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1998
and 1999.
Equity in Earnings of Real Estate Entities
- ------------------------------------------
Equity in earnings of real estate entities was $753,000 in the three
months ended September 30, 1999 as compared to $795,000 during the three months
ended September 30, 1998, representing an decrease of $42,000, or 5%. This was
6
<PAGE>
due primarily to the Partnership's share of lower operating results at the Joint
Venture's mini-warehouses.
Depreciation and Amortization
- -----------------------------
Depreciation and amortization increased $3,000, or 9%, from $34,000 to
$37,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1998 and 1999, respectively.
This increase was primarily attributable to the depreciation of capital
expenditures made during 1998 and 1999.
NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1999 COMPARED TO NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30,
1998:
The Partnership's net income was $2,228,000 and $2,175,000 for the nine
months ended September 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively, representing an increase
of $53,000, or 2%. 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.
Property Operations
- -------------------
Rental income for the Partnership's wholly-owned mini-warehouse
properties was $437,000 compared to $431,000 for the nine months ended September
30, 1999 and 1998, respectively, representing an increase of $6,000, or 1%. Cost
of operations (including management fees) increased $12,000, or 6%, to $200,000
from $188,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 and 1998,
respectively. Accordingly, for the Partnership's wholly-owned mini-warehouse
properties, property net operating income decreased by $6,000, or 2%, from
$243,000 to $237,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 and 1999,
respectively.
Equity in Earnings of Real Estate Entities
- ------------------------------------------
Equity in earnings of real estate entities was $2,146,000 in the nine
months ended September 30, 1999 as compared to $2,074,000 during the nine months
ended September 30, 1998, representing an increase of $72,000, or 3%. This was
due primarily to the Partnership's share of improved operating results at the
Joint Venture's mini-warehouses.
7
<PAGE>
Depreciation and Amortization
- -----------------------------
Depreciation and amortization increased $8,000, or 8%, from $101,000 to
$109,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 and 1999, respectively.
This increase was primarily attributable to the depreciation of capital
expenditures made during 1998 and 1999.
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 SEPTEMBER 30, 1999 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER
30, 1998:
Rental income for the Mini-Warehouse Properties was $3,227,000 compared
to $3,191,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1999 and 1998,
respectively, representing an increase of $36,000, or 1%. The increase in rental
income was primarily attributable to higher rental rates at the Mini-Warehouse
Properties. The annual average realized rent per square foot for the
Mini-Warehouse Properties was $8.31 compared to $8.14 for the three months ended
September 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively. The weighted average occupancy levels
at the Mini-Warehouse Properties decreased from 93% to 92% for the three months
ended September 30, 1998 and 1999, respectively. Cost of operations (including
management fees) increased $97,000, or 8%, to $1,229,000 from $1,131,000 for the
three months ended September 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively. This increase was
primarily attributable to increases in advertising and promotion (due primarily
to the PSI national telephone reservation center), payroll, and property tax
expenses. Accordingly, for the Mini-Warehouse Properties, property net operating
income decreased by $61,000, or 3%, from $2,060,000 to $1,999,000 for the three
months ended September 30, 1998 and 1999, respectively.
NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1999 COMPARED TO NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30,
1998:
Rental income for the Mini-Warehouse Properties was $9,495,000 compared
to $9,194,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 and 1998,
respectively, representing an increase of $301,000, or 3%. The increase in
rental income was primarily attributable to increased rental rates and occupancy
levels at the Mini-Warehouse Properties. The annual average realized rent per
square foot for the Mini-Warehouse Properties was $8.16 compared to $7.91 for
8
<PAGE>
the nine months ended September 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively. The weighted
average occupancy levels at the Mini-Warehouse Properties remained stable at 92%
for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 and 1999. Cost of operations
(including management fees) increased $214,000, or 6%, to $3,696,000 from
$3,482,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively.
This increase was primarily attributable to increases in advertising and
promotion (due primarily to the PSI national telephone reservation center),
property tax, and payroll expenses. Accordingly, for the Mini-Warehouse
Properties, property net operating income increased by $87,000, or 2%, from
$5,712,000 to $5,799,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 and 1999,
respectively.
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 distributions from real estate entities ($4,855,000 for the nine months
ended September 30, 1999) has been sufficient to meet all current obligations of
the Partnership.
During 1999, the Partnership anticipates approximately $44,000 of
capital improvements for the Partnership's wholly-owned properties. Total
capital improvements were $11,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1999.
The Partnership paid distributions to the limited and general partners
totaling $4,101,000 ($27.34 per unit) and $504,000, respectively, during the
first nine months of 1999. Future distribution rates may be adjusted to levels
which are supported by operating cash flow after capital improvements and any
other necessary obligations.
Impact of Year 2000
- -------------------
The Partnership utilizes Public Storage, Inc.'s ("PSI") information
systems in connection with a cost sharing and administrative services agreement.
PSI has completed an assessment of all of its hardware and software applications
to identify susceptibility to what is commonly referred to as the "Y2K Issue"
whereby certain computer programs have been written using two digits rather than
four to define the applicable year. Any of PSI's computer programs or hardware
with the Y2K Issue that have date-sensitive applications or embedded chips may
recognize a date using "00" as the year 1900 rather than the year 2000,
resulting in miscalculations or system failure causing disruptions of
operations.
PSI has two phases in its process with respect to each of its systems;
i) assessment, whereby PSI evaluates whether the system is Y2K compliant and
identifies the plan of action with respect to remediating any Y2K issues
9
<PAGE>
identified and ii) implementation, whereby PSI completes the plan of action
prepared in the assessment phase and verifies that Y2K compliance has been
achieved.
Implementations have been completed on PSI's critical applications that
impact the Partnership, such as the general ledger, property operations, and
related systems. Contingency plans have been developed for use in case PSI's
assessment may have not been able to identify all Y2K issues, or if the
implementations were subsequently determined to not fully remediate Y2K issues
that were identified. While PSI presently believes that the impact of the Y2K
Issue on its systems can be mitigated, if PSI's plan for ensuring Year 2000
compliance and the related contingency plans were to fail, be insufficient, or
not be implemented on a timely basis, Partnership operations could be materially
impacted.
Certain of PSI's other non-computer related systems that may be
impacted by the Y2K Issue, such as security systems, have been evaluated. Based
upon its evaluation, PSI has no reason to believe that lack of compliance or
failure of required solutions would materially impact Partnership's operations.
The Partnership exchanges electronic data with certain outside vendors
in the banking and payroll processing areas. The Partnership has been advised by
these vendors that their systems are Year 2000 compliant. The Partnership is not
aware of any other vendors, suppliers, or other external agents with a Y2K Issue
that would materially impact the Partnership's results of operations, liquidity,
or capital resources. However, the Partnership has no means of ensuring that
external agents will be Year 2000 compliant, and there can be no assurance that
PSI has identified all such external agents. The inability of external agents to
complete their Year 2000 compliance process in a timely fashion could materially
impact the Partnership. The effect of non-compliance by external agents is not
determinable.
The cost of PSI's year 2000 compliance activities (which primarily
consists of the costs of new systems) to be allocated to the Partnership is
estimated at approximately $143,000. These costs are capitalized. PSI's year
2000 compliance efforts have not resulted in any significant deferrals in other
information system projects.
The costs of the projects and the date on which PSI expects to achieve
Year 2000 Compliance are based upon management's best estimates, and were
derived utilizing numerous assumptions of future events. There can be no
assurance that these estimates will be achieved, and actual results could differ
materially from those anticipated. There can be no assurance that PSI has
identified all potential Y2K Issues either within the Partnership, at PSI or at
external agents. In addition, the impact of the Y2K issue on governmental
entities and utility providers and the resultant impact on the Partnership, as
10
<PAGE>
well as disruptions in the general economy, may be material but cannot be
reasonably determined or quantified.
