                  SOLICITATION OF CONSENT OF LIMITED PARTNERS

                                 June 12, 1997


          QSR Income Properties, Ltd. (the "Partnership") is soliciting the
consent of its limited partners (the "Limited Partners") to a proposal to (i)
sell the Partnership's principal assets to U.S. Restaurant Properties Operating
L.P. ("Purchaser") for approximately $7,959,934 in cash, (ii) dissolve the
Partnership and make a liquidating distribution of cash, and (iii) take any
other action necessary or appropriate to implement such sale and liquidation.
The proposal is described in the accompanying Solicitation Statement of the
Purchaser dated June 12, 1997 (the "Solicitation Statement").  Upon the
completion of the sale and dissolution, as proposed, each of the holders of the
Partnership's outstanding limited partnership units (the "Units") would have the
right to receive a liquidation distribution of cash estimated at $140.00 per
Unit.

          The proposed sale by the Partnership to the Purchaser of its assets,
and the subsequent dissolution of the Seller, require the consent of the
Partnership's limited partners (exclusive of the General Partner) holding at
least a majority of the 52,004 outstanding Units.  This solicitation, including
the Solicitation Statement and the Consent Form, is being used to solicit the
required consent and is being mailed to all persons who are Limited Partners of
record of the Partnership as of the close of business on the business day prior
to mailing.

          The record date for determining the Limited Partners entitled to vote
on the proposed sale and dissolution will be the date of the Partnership's
receipt of the first Consent Form consenting to the sale and dissolution.  The
consent given by a completed Consent Form may be revoked at anytime prior to the
time when unrevoked consents have been obtained from the required majority in
interest of the Units.

          If the sale and dissolution are approved and completed, all Limited
Partners will receive a liquidation distribution of cash on the basis described
in the Solicitation Statement.

          Consent Forms should be completed, signed, and returned promptly to

                                 June 12, 1997

                                    GENERAL


          This Solicitation Statement (first mailed to Limited Partners on or
about June 12, 1997) is being furnished in connection with the solicitation by
the General Partner of QSR Income Properties, Ltd., a California Limited
Partnership (the "Partnership"), of the consent of the limited partners of the
Partnership (the "Limited Partners" or "Unitholders") to

               (i)   a proposed sale of the Partnership's principal assets to
                     U.S. Restaurant Properties Operating L.P. (the "Purchaser")
                     for cash consideration of approximately $7,959,934;

               (ii)  dissolution and liquidation of the Partnership; and

               (iii) all other action necessary or appropriate to implement
                     such sale and liquidation.

          The Partnership has entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement (the
"Purchase Agreement") with the Purchaser which is a Delaware limited partnership
owned and controlled by U.S. Restaurant Properties Master L.P. ("U.S. Restaurant
Properties").  Under the Purchase Agreement, the parties have agreed, subject to
satisfaction of certain conditions, that the Partnership will sell, and the
Purchaser will purchase, substantially all of the Partnership's assets,
including the sixteen restaurant properties constituting the principal assets of
the Partnership.  If the sale takes place, the net sale proceeds and any other
Partnership funds, remaining after payment of Partnership obligations, and
liquidation expenses, will be distributed and the Partnership will be
liquidated.  One of the conditions to the proposed sale is the consent to the
transaction by Limited Partners holding at least a majority (more than 26,002)
of the 52,004 outstanding limited partnership units ("Units") of the
Partnership.

          If implemented, the sale of the Partnership's assets to the Purchaser
and liquidation of the Partnership is expected to occur in the third calendar
quarter of 1997 and to:

                                       1
<PAGE>
 
          1.   Provide Unitholders with an estimated aggregate liquidation
distribution (before taxes and before withholding for taxes) of approximately
$140.00 per Unit.

          2.   Result in U.S. income tax consequences for many Unitholders as
described below under "Certain Federal Income Tax Considerations."

                               VOTING PROCEDURES

     The proposed sale by the Partnership to the Purchaser of its assets, and
the subsequent dissolution of the Partnership, require the consent of Limited
Partners (exclusive of the General Partner) holding at least a majority of the
52,004 outstanding Units.  This Solicitation Statement and the enclosed consent
form (the "Consent Form") will be used to solicit the required consent and are
being mailed to all persons who are Limited Partners of record as of the close
of business on the business day prior to mailing.  Mailing is expected to occur
on approximately June 12, 1997.  The General Partner does not intend to call a
meeting of the Limited Partners.

     The record date for determining the Limited Partners entitled to vote on
the proposed sale and dissolution will be the date of the Partnership's receipt
of the first Consent Form consenting to the sale and dissolution.  The consent
given by a completed Consent Form may be revoked at anytime prior to the time
when unrevoked consents have been obtained from the required majority in
interest of the Units.

     There are no dissenters' rights.  If the sale and dissolution are approved
and completed, all Limited Partners of will receive a liquidation distribution
on the basis described in this Solicitation Statement.

     Consent Forms should be completed, signed, and returned promptly to Boston
Equiserve. A self-addressed, postage prepaid envelope for the return of the
Consent Form accompanies this Solicitation Statement.

                             HISTORICAL BACKGROUND
                               OF THE PARTNERSHIP

          The Partnership is a publicly held limited partnership organized on
November 1, 1985 under the California Revised Limited Partnership Act.
Commencing in June 1986, 100,000 Units were offered to the public in an
interstate offering.  The offering was terminated on April 30, 1987 after the
sale of 52,004 Units.

          The Partnership was formed to invest in property for development and
operation of Rocky Rococo restaurants under an agreement with Rocky Rococo
Corporation ("Rocky Rococo"), an operator and franchiser of pizza restaurants.
The Partnership's original general partners were Madison Pizza Corporation, a
Delaware corporation ("Madison"), and B. Wayne Hughes.  Effective December 1,
1989, Madison resigned as a General Partner and Mr. Hughes succeeded to
Madison's 

                                       2
<PAGE>
 
general partner interest in a transaction approved by the Partnership's Limited
Partners holding a majority of the Units. Madison was subsequently dissolved on
December 28, 1989. Madison had been organized by Rocky Rococo and a group of
individuals, including Mr. Hughes, who had been previously engaged in real
estate development, management, and syndication ventures unrelated to Rocky
Rococo (the "Organizing Shareholders"). Mr. Hughes and certain other Organizing
Shareholders disposed of their Madison and Rocky Rococo stock in 1989.

          In 1988, Rocky Rococo and the Partnership discontinued operations in
various markets because the restaurants in those markets had not operated
profitably.  All 23 of the Partnership's restaurants were closed between 1988
and 1990 because of disappointing operating results.  Since 1988, the
Partnership has pursued the leasing (or subleasing) or selling to unaffiliated
restaurant operators of its interest in the restaurant facilities which it owned
or leased, but no longer operated.

          The Partnership is a California limited partnership.  B. Wayne Hughes
is the Partnership's General Partner.  The principal executive offices of the
Partnership and the Partnership's General Partner are located at 701 Western
Avenue, Suite 200, Glendale, California 91201.  Their telephone number is (818)
244-8080 and their facsimile number is (818) 241-0627.

                             TERMS OF PROPOSED SALE

          A summary of the principal terms of the sale contemplated by the
Purchase Agreement follows:

          Assets to be Purchased and Sold.  The assets to be sold to the
          -------------------------------                               
Purchaser consist of the Partnership's interest in sixteen restaurant
properties, together with the Partnership's interest in six promissory notes
having an aggregate outstanding principal balance as of March 31, 1996 of
approximately $278,800.  The Partnership owns thirteen of the restaurant
properties and is the lessee under ground leases of the remaining three
restaurant properties.

          Purchase Price.  The purchase price (the "Purchase Price") is
          --------------                                               
approximately $7,959,934, consisting of (i) $7,721,234, allocated among the
sixteen restaurant properties as indicated below under "The Partnership's
Properties," plus (ii) approximately $238,700 allocated to the notes.  The exact
amount allocated to five of the notes (having a combined outstanding principal
balance as of March 31, 1997 of approximately $181,800) will be computed so that
the scheduled future payments of principal and interest on those notes will
represent a return to the Purchaser of that amount plus a yield thereon at a
rate of 13.5% per annum.  The sixth note is held jointly by the Partnership and
several affiliated parties, including B. Wayne Hughes, the general partner.
This note has an outstanding principal balance of approximately $291,000 and the
portion of the Purchase Price allocable to and based on the Partnership's
interest is equal to the Partnership's share of the outstanding principal
balance of this Note which is approximately $97,000.  After the purchase and
sale is completed, Mr. Hughes may purchase this interest in this note from the
Purchaser for cash in the same amount, approximately $97,000.

                                       3

          Deposit Required From and Made By The Purchaser.  The Purchaser has
          -----------------------------------------------                    
deposited $175,000 in escrow.  If all contingencies (including the obtaining of
the consent solicited hereby), are satisfied and the Purchaser breaches its
obligation to purchase, this amount would be retained by the Partnership as
liquidated damages.

          Scheduled Closing of Purchase and Sale.  The anticipated closing date
          --------------------------------------                               
is in July, 1997.  All contingencies must be satisfied or waived prior to
closing.

          Time and Manner of Payment of Purchase Price.  The Purchase Price is
          --------------------------------------------                        
payable in cash at closing.

          Approval of Limited Partners.  The obligations of both parties are
          ----------------------------                                      
contingent upon the receipt of the consent of Limited Partners (other than the
General Partner) holding a majority (more than 26,002) of the 52,004 outstanding
Units of the Partnership as a result of this solicitation.

          Review and Inspection Rights.  Under the Purchase Agreement, the
          ----------------------------                                    
Purchaser had a right to terminate its obligations at any time within 45 days
after being furnished with all of various documents and material including
financial information, title insurance commitments, "as built" surveys,
environmental reports and other relevant items including warranties, agreements,
studies and evidence of compliance with local requirements.  This period
expired, without a termination by the Purchaser, on February 17, 1997, after
having been extended to that date by agreement between the Purchaser and the
Partnership.

          Condemnation or Damage Prior to Closing.  If substantially all of a
          ---------------------------------------                            
property is condemned or damaged or destroyed, the Purchaser may elect to
exclude that property and receive a reduction in the purchase price equal to the
portion thereof allocated to such property.  If such an occurrence resulted in a
purchase of less than all of the Partnership's  properties, the Partnership
would distribute available proceeds of sale, but would not be liquidated,
pending sale of the remaining property or properties.

          Other Principal Contingencies.  Conditions to the Purchaser's
          -----------------------------

tenants and receipt of required title insurance.

          Prorations; Costs.  Rent will be prorated as of closing.  The
          -----------------                                            
Partnership will pay expenses of soliciting the approval of its Limited
Partners.  Each party will pay its own legal and accounting costs.  Costs of
title insurance, environmental reports and surveys are to be borne equally by
the Partnership and the Purchaser.

          Representation and Warranties.  Each party makes certain
          -----------------------------                           
representations and warranties to the other and the obligations of each party
are contingent upon the correctness of the other's representations and
warranties.  The representations and warranties survive the closing, but 

                                       4
<PAGE>
 
the Partnership's post closing liability for any misrepresentation is limited so
that it can be used only as an offset against liability which the Purchaser may
have to the Partnership.

          Exculpation of General Partner.  The Purchase Agreement provides that
          ------------------------------                                       
the General Partner of the Partnership shall have no personal liability for the
obligations of the Partnership.

                             BACKGROUND OF THE SALE

     In an effort to accelerate its liquidation efforts, on November 10, 1995,
the Partnership engaged an independent investment banking firm (the "Agent") to
assist in marketing the interests in or assets of the Partnership to potential
bulk purchasers.  At the same time, three affiliates of the Partnership (the
"Affiliated Sellers"), holding a total of eleven additional restaurant
facilities also originally opened as Rocky Rococo restaurants, and then closed
and leased to unaffiliated restaurant operators, engaged the Agent to perform a
comparable marketing service.

          On December 19, 1995, an information package developed with the
assistance of the Agent was presented to the Purchaser.  The package included a
summary listing of the sixteen properties held by the Partnership and the eleven
properties held by the Affiliated Sellers and included a description of the
economic terms of the leases, recent photographs of the properties, and
financial statements for the Partnership and each of the Affiliated Sellers.
The furnishing of this information was followed by telephone conferences on or
about December 27, 1995 and the furnishing of additional information requested
by the Purchaser.

          A number of discussions were held by a representative of the Agent
with representatives of the Purchaser, the Partnership, and the Affiliated
Sellers to clarify to the Purchaser various details with respect to the leasing
status of the properties and the respective objectives of the Purchaser, the
Partnership, and the Affiliated Sellers.  On January 8, 1996, the Purchaser made
an offer in principle to purchase all sixteen restaurant properties owned by the
Partnership and the eleven properties owned by the Affiliated Sellers.  Further
discussions and exchanges of information were then undertaken through the Agent
as intermediary, including discussions concerning the terms of the offer in
principle and the consideration given by the Purchaser in recent comparable
purchases of restaurant properties.

          On February 5, 1996, the Purchaser was advised by the Agent that the
Partnership and the Affiliated Sellers intended to continue marketing the
facilities in the hope of attracting a broader group of potential acquirors that
would improve the terms of the offer in principle by the Purchaser. During a
period of approximately one month following the February 5th discussion,
representatives of the Agent contacted principals at seven different entities
believed to have an interest in, and the capacity for, acquiring multiple net
leased restaurant properties.  Information was provided to these prospective
purchasers consistent with the degree of interest that they expressed when
contacted.

          On March 25, 1996, a representative of the Agent met with Robert
Stetson, the Chief Executive Officer of the Purchaser's Managing General
Partner, and Fred Margolin, the Chairman 

                                       5
<PAGE>
 
of the Purchaser's Managing General Partner, to discuss further the terms of the
Purchaser's original offer in principle and to advise the Purchaser of the other
marketing efforts then in process.

          Prior to May 1, 1996, the Agent obtained two other offers in principle
and determined that two other potential acquirors were insufficiently
capitalized to purchase the properties held by the Partnership or the Affiliated
Sellers.  Of these two offers in principle, one was for a lesser purchase price
and the other encompassed only three of the sixteen properties held by the
Partnership and only one of the total of eleven properties owned by the
Affiliated Sellers.  On or about May 1, 1996, the Partnership and the Affiliated
Sellers determined that they would negotiate exclusively with the Purchaser
until it could be determined whether acceptable agreements could be reached,
which was communicated to the Purchaser at that time.

          On May 6, 1996, further discussions were held by a representative of
the Agent and Messrs. Stetson and Margolin and possible adjustments to the
original offer in principle were discussed.  On May 16, 1996, the Purchaser
submitted revised terms to its original offer in principle to purchase the
properties of the Partnership and the Affiliated Sellers.

          On June 11, 1996, a representative of the Agent conveyed to
representatives of the Purchaser a few modifications that the Partnership and
the Affiliated Sellers wished to address in the most recent offer in principle
from the Purchaser.  On June 19, 1996, those issues were tentatively resolved.
On June 25, 1996, the Purchaser submitted to the Partnership a draft agreement
for the purchase of the Partnership's properties.  On June 28, 1996, the
Purchaser submitted to the Affiliated Sellers non-binding letters of intent to
purchase the real properties held by them.  The terms provided for in the draft
of the agreement between the Partnership and the Purchaser provided that payment
by the Purchaser of the purchase price would be in the form of limited
partnership units of U.S. Restaurant Properties ("Purchaser Units"), based upon
the average daily closing price of Purchaser Units on the NYSE during the five
business days preceding the closing, subject to a "floor" of $24.50 per
Purchaser Unit, which would have limited the number of Purchaser Units that the
Partnership would receive for distribution to its partners and any assignees of
Units if the average closing price for a Purchaser Unit during the five day
period was less than $24.50.  The letters of intent relating to the transactions
between the Purchaser and the Affiliated Sellers each provided for payment in
cash of the purchase price for their properties.  After the Partnership and the
Affiliated Sellers reviewed the draft agreement and the letters of intent, a
representative of the Agent reviewed certain issues with Mr. Margolin, including
the Partnership's requirement that there be no "floor" on the closing price of
the Purchaser Units to be used in the determination of the number of those units
to be issued.

          On August 29, 1996, the Purchaser submitted a revised draft of the
agreement between the Purchaser and the Partnership.  The revised draft was the
subject of a conference telephone call on September 6, 1996 among
representatives of the Purchaser, the Agent, the Partnership, the law firm of
Andrews & Kurth, L.L.P., which represented the Partnership, and the law firm of
Middleberg, Riddle & Gianna, which represented the Purchaser.  During that call
the parties agreed that there would be no "floor" in the valuation of the
Purchaser Units and most of the 

                                       6
<PAGE>
 
remaining issues were resolved. After a review by the Partnership of further
drafts submitted by the Purchaser, a definitive agreement was executed on
September 18, 1996. Purchase and Sale Agreements between the Purchaser and each
of the Affiliated Sellers, for the sale of the properties owned by the
Affiliated Sellers, were entered into on or about October 24, 1996. These
agreements provided that payment for the properties held by the Affiliated
Sellers would be in cash.

          In the September 6, 1996 telephone call, the representatives of the
Partnership attempted to persuade the Purchaser to pay the purchase price for
the Partnership's properties in cash.  The Purchaser declined to do so and
indicated that because of the larger number of properties to be acquired from
the Partnership, the ability to pay for the Partnership's properties in
Purchaser Units was a material inducement to the Purchaser agreeing to the
transaction.

          A preliminary version of the contents of this Solicitation Statement
was included in a preliminary form of Consent Solicitation Statement/Prospectus
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on or about February 7, 1997.
It was then contemplated that the Purchaser Units then proposed to be issued as
consideration for the Partnership's properties would be registered for issuance
to the holders of the Partnership's Units pursuant to a registration statement
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, which would include a final form
of such Consent Solicitation Statement/Prospectus.  However, because of the
delay and additional expense which appeared to be involved in the process
necessary to using Purchaser Units as consideration for the Partnership's
properties, the Purchaser agreed instead to pay the Purchase Price in cash and
this was provided for in an amendment to the Purchase Agreement executed in May,
1997.

                                 THE PURCHASER

          The Purchaser is 99% owned, and is controlled, by U.S. Restaurant
Properties.  U.S. Restaurant Properties, through the Purchaser and otherwise,
acquires, owns, and manages income-producing properties that it leases on a
triple net basis to operators of fast food and casual dining restaurants,
primarily Burger King(R) and other national and regional brands, including
Chili's(R), Dairy Queen(R), Hardee's(R), KFC(R), Pizza Hut(R), Schlotzsky's(R),
and Taco Bell(R).

          U.S. Restaurant Properties is one of the largest publicly owned
entities in the United States dedicated to acquiring, owning, and managing
restaurant properties.  At December 31, 1996, the Purchaser's Portfolio
consisted of 322 restaurant properties in 41 states, approximately 99% of which
were leased.  In addition, as described below, the Purchaser has entered into
binding contracts to acquire an additional 54 restaurant properties, including
the sixteen Restaurants owned by the Partnership.

             RECOMMENDATION OF THE PARTNERSHIP'S GENERAL PARTNERS.

          The Partnership's General Partner is recommending that the Unitholders
approve the transaction.  The Partnership originally acquired and developed its
properties so that it could operate them as Rocky Rococo Pizza restaurants
pursuant to an agreement with Rocky Rococo Corporation.

The Partnership's operation of the restaurants was generally not profitable and
all of its original twenty-three restaurants were closed during the period 1988
through 1990. The Partnership leased its restaurant properties to independent
operators as a means of generating income, pending disposition or other
utilization. Seven restaurants have previously been sold. The Partnership did
not intend initially to be simply a holder of net leased restaurants and the
Partnership's General Partner believes that a sale of the Partnership's assets
to the Purchaser on the terms which have been negotiated and a liquidation of
the Partnership is in the best interests of the Partnership.

          The Partnership has not obtained recent appraisals of its Properties
or an opinion of an investment banking firm concerning the fairness of the
proposed terms.  However, in view of the Partnership's history and
circumstances, and the background of the transaction, including in particular
its arms length nature, the Partnership's General Partner believes that the
absence of current appraisals and such an opinion is not significant.  In view
of the relative size of the transaction in terms of asset value, the General
Partner believes that obtaining such appraisals or such an opinion would have
involved an unwarranted expense without material likelihood of increasing the
proceeds likely to be received by the Partnership and the Unitholders.

                            ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED

          Possible alternatives to a sale as proposed include the Partnership
(i) continuing to hold the Properties, (ii) acquiring additional properties,
(iii) operating the properties as restaurants, (iv) marketing the properties
individually, or (v) achieving some combination of the foregoing.  The
Partnership's General Partner does not believe, after taking into account all
relevant considerations, that any one or any combination of these alternatives
is preferable to the proposed sale to the Purchaser.  The size of and return on
the Partnership's investments at their present level does not justify the
administrative expense of maintaining the Partnership on a long term basis.  The
Purchaser holds a much larger number of similar restaurant properties and enjoys
economies of scale not available to the Partnership (or to most other potential
purchasers of individual properties).  The Partnership does not have the capital
to invest in additional properties or to reenter the business of restaurant
operation.  In view of the number, size and location of the Partnership's
properties, it is believed that its marketing of the properties on a piecemeal
basis would not be as effective and efficient as marketing to potential single
purchasers already in the business of holding comparable properties.

                               OWNERSHIP OF UNITS

          The only securities issued by the Partnership are the Units.  Although
B. Wayne Hughes has effective control over most aspects of the management of the
Partnership because of his status as the sole General Partner of the
Partnership, Mr. Hughes cannot, by any exercise of his powers as General
Partner, determine the outcome of the consent solicitation made by this
Solicitation Statement.  Mr. Hughes also is the beneficial owner of 50 Units,
representing approximately 0.1% of the outstanding Units, all of which are the
property of a living trust of which he is the sole beneficiary and trustee.
Based on the list of Unitholders of record as of June 5, 1997, no Unitholder or
control group beneficially owned, directly or indirectly, in excess of 2.00% of
the Units.  Mr. Hughes's address is c/o Public Storage Inc., 701 Western Avenue,
Suite 200, Glendale, California 91201-2397.

                    CERTAIN FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES

          The sale of the restaurant properties and the subsequent liquidation
of the Partnership will be taxable events for the Limited Partners that should
allow Limited Partners to use any suspended passive losses produced by their
investment in the Partnership.  The amount of estimated suspended loss available
to an original Limited Partner of the Partnership (who has not previously offset
the Partnership's losses from prior years against passive income from other
sources) is approximately $21.00 per Unit, consisting of ordinary losses.  The
sale of the restaurant properties is expected to produce a Section 1231 loss for
tax purposes of approximately $56.00 per Unit. Generally, if a taxpayer's
Section 1231 losses exceed Section 1231 gains, the excess is treated as an
ordinary loss.  When a taxpayer reports a net Section 1231 gain in a year, that
gain must be recaptured as ordinary income to the extent of any net Section 1231
losses incurred in the prior five years that have not previously been subject to
recapture.  The Limited Partners would also receive approximately $3.00 per Unit
of ordinary income, attributable to operating income for 1997 through the date
of liquidation.

          The liquidation of the Partnership and the distribution of the
liquidating proceeds will be treated as a taxable sale of the Partners'
partnership interests, producing capital loss (or gain) to the extent that the
cash distributed is less than (or more than) the Partners' tax basis in their
Units. For an original investor in the Partnership, it is estimated that the
liquidating distribution of approximately $140.00 per Unit should result in a
capital gain of approximately $1.00 per Unit.

          The particular tax consequences for each Limited Partner will depend
upon a number of factors related to that Limited Partners's tax situation,
including the Limited Partner's tax basis in the Units, and if a capital loss
results, whether the Limited Partners will be able to use the capital loss
currently.  To the extent that a Limited Partners recognizes a capital loss, the
loss generally can be applied to offset capital gain from other sources.
Individuals may use capital losses in excess of capital gains to offset up to
$3,000 of ordinary income in any single year ($1,500 for a married individual
filing a separate return).  Any capital losses that are not used currently can
be carried forward for use in subsequent years.  A corporation's capital losses
in excess of current capital gains 

                                       12
<PAGE>
 
generally may be carried back three years, with any remaining unused portion
available to be carried forward for five years.

          Because the income tax consequences of the transaction will not be the
same for all Limited Partners, and because this discussion considers only a
limited set of potential tax issues, Limited Partners should consult with their
own tax advisors with specific reference to the tax effects in their own tax
situations.  This discussion does not address any state or local tax
considerations that may be applicable in jurisdictions in which the Partnership
is doing business or in which Limited Partners may be resident.  All of the tax
and liquidation distribution numbers provided are estimates only, are made based
on the conditions stated, and may vary when the final accounting is complete.

                         PARTICIPATION IN DISTRIBUTIONS

          Under the Partnership's Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited
Partnership, until cumulative distributions to the partners first reach 100% of
their capital investment of $500 per unit, as amended, cash flow from operations
is paid 92% to the partners in proportion to their capital contributions and 8%
to the General Partner as incentive distributions, and cash from sale or
refinancing is paid 100% to the partners in proportion to their capital
contributions.  Thereafter, any subsequent distributions of cash flow from
operations would be paid 75% to the partners and 25% to the General Partner as
incentive distributions.  Prior cumulative distributions to the Unitholders
total approximately $171.75 per Unit.  If the proposed sale is completed, the
liquidation distribution, estimated at approximately $7,354,000 in the
aggregate, will be paid $7,280,500 to the Unitholders (approximately $140 per
unit) and $73,500 to the General Partner in respect of his contribution of 1% of
the Partnership's initial capital.

                INCORPORATION OF CERTAIN DOCUMENTS BY REFERENCE

          Copies are enclosed of the following documents, filed by the
Partnership pursuant to Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (File
No. 0-15802):  Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1996;
and Quarterly Report on form 10-Q for the three months ended March 31, 1997.
These documents are incorporated herein by reference.  Any statement contained
in any of these documents, however, shall be deemed modified or superseded for
the purposes of this Solicitation Statement to the extent that a statement
contained in this Solicitation Statement is inconsistent with such statement.
Any such statement so modified or superseded shall not be deemed, except as so
modified or superseded, to constitute a part of this Solicitation Statement.

                            SOLICITATION OF CONSENT

          The proposed sale by the Partnership to the Purchaser of its assets,
and the subsequent dissolution of the Partnership, require the consent of
Limited Partners (exclusive of the General Partner) holding at least a majority
of the 52,004 Units outstanding (a "Majority in Interest").  This Solicitation
of Consent and a form of consent (the "Consent Form") are being mailed to all
persons 

                                       13
<PAGE>
 
who are Limited Partners of record of the Seller as of the close of business on
the last business day prior to the day of mailing. The General Partner does not
intend to call a meeting of the Limited Partners.

          The record date for determining the Limited Partners entitled to vote
on the proposed sale and dissolution will be the date of the Partnership's
receipt of the first Consent Form consenting to the sale and dissolution.  The
consent given by a completed Consent Form may be revoked at any time prior to
the time when unrevoked consents have been obtained from the required Majority
in Interest.  Limited Partners of the Partnership holding more than 10% of the
Units may request a meeting for the purpose of discussing or voting upon the
sale and dissolution, in which event no action would be taken until the holding
of such a meeting.  In the absence of a request for such a meeting, approval of
the proposed sale and dissolution will be deemed effective 15 days after the
receipt of unrevoked consents from the holders of the required majority in
interest of the Units.

          The Partnership has retained Christopher Weil & Company Inc. ("Weil")
a registered broker dealer, to answer questions and solicit responses to this
transaction.  Weil has acted in a similar capacity in connection with other
partnerships affiliated with the General Partner.  Weil is also the Agent
referred to above in connection with the description of the marketing of the
Partnership's properties and the negotiation of the Purchase Agreement.  Weil
will receive total compensation of $237,000 from the Partnership (representing
approximately three percent (3%) of the Purchase Price) if, and only if, the
transaction is closed and completed.

          The General Partner requests that you complete, sign and return the
Consent Form by July 11, 1997, provided that (i) such date may be extended by
the General Partner without further notice to the Limited Partners, and (ii) the
transaction may be consummated prior to such date if the proposal is approved
prior to such date by Limited Partners holding a Majority in Interest (but not
be consummated if disapproved by Limited Partners holding a majority of the
Units).  A postage-paid return envelope has been enclosed for your convenience.

          Mr. Hughes owns 50 Units; affiliates of Mr. Hughes own 120 Units; and
affiliates of Weil own 118 Units.  Each intends to vote these Units in favor of
the proposal (although Mr. Hughes's vote will be excluded in determining whether
consent has been received from a Majority in Interest).

          You are urged to complete the accompanying Consent Form and to sign,
date and return it in the enclosed stamped envelope as soon as possible to
Boston EquiServe, Corporate Agency & Reorganization, P. O. Box 1872, Mail Stop

ITEM 1.   Business.
          -------- 

     QSR Income Properties, Ltd. (the "Partnership") is a publicly held limited
partnership organized on November 1, 1985 under the California Revised Limited
Partnership Act.  Commencing in June 1986, 100,000 units of limited partnership
interest (the "Units") were offered to the public in an interstate offering.
The offering was terminated on April 30, 1987 after the sale of 52,004 Units.

     The Partnership was formed to invest in property for development and
operation of Rocky Rococo restaurants under an agreement with Rocky Rococo
Corporation ("Rocky Rococo"), an operator and franchiser of pizza restaurants.
The Partnership's original general partners were Madison Pizza Corporation, a
Delaware corporation ("Madison"), and B. Wayne Hughes ("Mr. Hughes").  Effective
December 1, 1989, Madison resigned as a general partner and Mr. Hughes succeeded
to Madison's general partner interest in a transaction approved by Limited
Partners holding a majority of the Units.  Madison was subsequently dissolved on
December 28, 1989.  Madison had been organized by Rocky Rococo and a group of
individuals, including Mr. Hughes, who had been previously engaged in real
estate development, management and syndication ventures not related to Rocky
Rococo (the "Organizing Shareholders").  Mr. Hughes and certain other Organizing
Shareholders disposed of their Madison and Rocky Rococo stock in 1989.

     In 1988, Rocky Rococo and the Partnership discontinued operations in
various markets because the restaurants in those markets had not operated
profitably.  All 23 of the Partnership's restaurants were closed because of
disappointing operating results between 1988 and 1990. As of December 31, 1996,
the Partnerships' facilities have been leased (or subleased) to unaffiliated
restaurant operators.

     In 1996 the Partnership incurred $32,000 of holding expenses for a closed
restaurant.  This facility was redeployed in December 1996.

     Madison contributed a total of $912,000 ($561,000 in 1989 and $351,000 in
1988) to the Partnership in full satisfaction of its obligations under a
contribution agreement entered into in 1988.  The funds contributed by Madison
were not accrued to the benefit of Madison and were used primarily for funding
ongoing fixed costs and restructuring transition expenditures.  Accordingly, the
amount contributed was reflected in the attached financial statements as a
General Partner contribution with a subsequent "equity transfer" to the Limited
Partners.

     Since Madison's resignation, the Partnership has been managed by Mr.
Hughes.  Prior to the resignation of Madison as a general partner, the
Partnership was managed by the executive officers of Madison and by Mr. Hughes.
The limited partners of the Partnership have no right to participate in the
management or conduct of the Partnership's business and affairs.

     Currently, there are four persons who render services on behalf of the
Partnership on a part-time basis.  These persons include accounting,
administrative, clerical and real estate personnel.  The persons rendering
services on a part-time basis also render services on behalf of one or more
corporations previously owned by Madison, other partnerships organized by
Madison and other affiliated corporations and partnerships of Mr. Hughes.

     The term of the Partnership is until all properties have been sold and, in
any event, not later than December 31, 2040.

     In November 1995, the general partner decided to place the facility assets
for sale and hired an investment banker to determine the valuation of the assets
and solicit offers. Based on offers to buy the assets received, the general
partner determined that the carrying value of the restaurant facilities needed
to be reduced to present the value of such assets at their net realizable value.
Consequently, the Partnership wrote-down the carrying value of its restaurant
facilities which resulted in a charge to income of $2,350,000 for the year ended
December 31, 1996.

                                       1
<PAGE>
 
     On September 16, 1996, the general partner entered into a purchase and sale
agreement with US Restaurants Properties Master LP, a Delaware limited
partnership and US Restaurant Properties Operating LP, a Delaware limited
partnership whereby the Partnership would sell its restaurant assets to USRP
Operating LP for $7,571,234 and certain of its notes receivable at a price which
provides  USRP Operating LP with a 13.5% yield. USRP Operating LP will pay for
the purchase of the assets with limited partnership units of USRP Master LP.
USRP Master LP is a New York Stock Exchange traded master limited partnership
traded under the symbol "USV".

     The transaction which is subject to certain contingencies, including
approval by the limited partners of the Partnership is expected to close in the
first half of 1997. The transaction is expected to be tax-free for most limited
partners. After the sale of the Partnership assets, the Partnership expects to
liquidate, distributing to the Unitholders the limited partnership interests in
USRP Master LP and any cash reserves.

ITEM 2.   Properties.
          ---------- 

     The Partnership had developed and operated 23 restaurant properties through
June 1988.

     The Partnership transferred or otherwise terminated its ownership or
leasehold interests in seven of its 23 properties.  Of the 16 closed properties
that continued to be owned or leased by the Partnership, all have been leased or
subleased to unaffiliated operators. The following table sets forth information
as of December 31, 1996, concerning the 16 restaurant properties (each having
from 2,800 to 3,450 square feet of restaurant space) that continue to be owned
or leased by the Partnership:

          Matters.
          ------- 

     No public trading market exists for the units of limited partnership
interest.

     Exclusive of the general partner's interest in the Partnership, as of
December 31, 1996, there were approximately 3,026 record holders of Units.

     Distributions to the general partner and to the Partnership's Limited
Partners are made quarterly based on "Cash Available for Distribution".  Cash
Available for Distribution is generally the sum of (i) cash funds from
operations of the Partnership, without deductions for depreciation, but after
deducting for capital improvements, plus (ii) net proceeds from any sale or
financing of the Partnership's properties, less adequate cash reserves for other
obligations of the Partnership for which there is no other provision.

</TABLE>

     During February 1997, the Partnership made a one-time distribution of cash
reserves. Each limited partner received $26.00 per unit in the distribution.

     Because of the Partnership's disappointing operating results, the General
Partners waived their incentive distributions associated with the Partnership's
distributions to Limited Partners from the second quarter of 1988 through fourth
quarter 1990.

     The general partner has an 8% interest in cash distributions attributable
to operations (exclusive of distributions attributable to sale and financing
proceeds) until the limited partners recover all of their investment, regardless
of source.  Thereafter, the general partner has a 25% interest in all cash
distributions (including sale and financing proceeds).  At December 31, 1996
cumulative distributions to limited partners were $7,634,000; accordingly
$18,368,000 of additional distributions are required to be made to the limited
partners for the limited partners to recover their capital contributions.

(2)  Includes a special distribution per unit of $25.25 in 1994 to distribute
     excess cash reserves.

(3)  Based upon offers to purchase the Partnership's properties received in
     1996, the general partner determined that the carrying value of the
     Partnership's real estate assets should be decreased by $2,350,000 to value
     such real estate assets at their net realizable value. The result of
     offsetting this revaluation provision against the $866,000 of net income
     from operations before such revaluation provision for the year of 1996 is a
     net loss from operations for such period of $1,484,000. A net loss of
     $1,528,000 has been allocated to the limited partners, resulting in a loss
     allocation of $29.38 per unit.

ITEM 7.   Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
          ---------------------------------------------------------------
          Results of Operations.
          --------------------- 

     The Partnership's activity began in June 1986 with the offering of up to
100,000 units of limited partnership interest to the public in an interstate
offering of which 52,004 units were sold.

     In 1988, the Partnership commenced a program to terminate activities
associated with operating its properties as Rocky Rococo restaurants and dispose
of its leasehold interests and redeploy its  property interests by seeking well
known, unaffiliated third party lessees to lease its properties.

     As of December 31, 1988, the Partnership had acquired or entered into
leases for 23  properties, all of which had been fully improved.  The total cost
of developing the Partnership's 23 restaurant facilities was $18,231,000, which
was funded entirely through offering proceeds.

     During 1988 through 1990, the Partnership's 23 restaurants were closed
because they were not operating profitably.  (See Item 1 above for additional
information regarding the closing of the Partnership's restaurants.)

     As of December 31, 1996, The remaining 16 facilities have been redeployed
by leasing the facilities to third party tenants.

YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1996 COMPARED TO YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1995:

     The Partnership's net income decreased $1,304,000 from a loss of $180,000
in 1995 to a loss of $1,484,000 in 1996.  The decrease is primarily attributable
to a  write-down of $2,350,000 to record the carrying value of the Partnership's
facilities at their net realizable value (see below). Excluding the write-down
of restaurant facilities in 1996 and 1995, and the loss on sale of a real estate
facility in 1995, the Partnership's net income increased $240,000 in 1996 over
1995. The increase was due to increase in lease income and interest income
combined with a decrease in depreciation expense.

     Lease income increased $33,000 or 3% from $1,062,000 in 1995 to $1,095,000
in 1996 due to scheduled escalations in lease income.  Included in lease income
in 1996 and 1995 is approximately $17,000 and $26,000, respectively, of
additional lease income under a percentage of rent feature with respect to
incremental sales above specified levels.

     Interest income increased $17,000 from $88,000 in 1995 to $105,000 in 1996
due to an increase in invested cash balances in 1996 compared to 1995.

     Depreciation expense decreased $190,000 in 1996 compared to 1995 as the
result of the Partnership's properties being carried at net realizable value and
the discontinuation of provisions for depreciation subsequent to the first
quarter of 1996.

     Idle facility cost decreased $14,000 from 1995 to 1996 due to cost incurred
on one closed facility in 1996 compared to two closed facilities in 1995. At
December 31, 1996 all facilities have been redeployed.

                                       8
<PAGE>
 
YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1995 COMPARED TO YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1994:

     The Partnership's net income decreased $798,000 from $618,000 in 1994 to a
loss of $180,000 in 1995.  The decrease is attributable to a $406,000 loss on
the sale of the Partnership's Iliff, Colorado property in November 1995, and a
write-down of a restaurant facility as discussed below.

     Lease income increased $39,000 or 4% from $1,023,000 in 1994 to $1,062,000
in 1995 due to scheduled escalations in lease income.  Included in lease income
in 1995 and 1994 is approximately $26,000 and $25,000, respectively, of
additional lease income under a percentage of rent feature with respect to
incremental sales above specified levels.

     Interest income decreased $22,000 from $110,000 in 1994 to $88,000 in 1995
due to a decrease in invested cash balances in 1995 compared t0 1994.  The
decrease in invested cash balances is due to a special distribution in December
1994 of $1,422,000.

     During 1995, the Partnership wrote-down the carrying value of the Coon
Rapids, Minnesota restaurant facility to its estimated net realizable value.
The restaurant facility is closed and has not yet been redeployed.  The write-
down resulted in a charge to income of $400,000 for the year ended December 31,
1995.

     Idle facility cost increased $10,000 from 1994 to 1995 on its closed
facilities (one of the two closed facilities was sold in November 1995).

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES:

     For the year ended December 31, 1996, the Partnership's leasing activities
generated cash flow of $922,000.  Cash flow from the Partnership's leasing
activities have been sufficient to meet all current obligations of the
Partnership.

     Management expects to continue to fund capital expenditures and quarterly
distributions to partners from operating cash flow.

     In connection with the leases signed, the Partnership sold the equipment
and furnishings of each facility to the lessee.  In connection with these sales,
the Partnership received promissory notes that are fully amortized over nine
years, accrue interest at 8.5%, and require annual aggregate principal
installments of approximately $40,000.  These notes mature in 1998 through 2000.

PROPOSED SALE OF ASSETS

     In November 1995, the general partner decided to place the facility assets
for sale and hired an investment banker to determine the valuation of the assets
and solicit offers. Based on offers to buy the assets received, the general
partner determined that the carrying value of the assets needed to be reduced by
$2,350,000 to present the value of such assets at their net realizable value.
Such valuation assumes costs to be incurred in the ordinary course of sale.

     On September 16, 1996, the general partner entered into a purchase and sale
agreement with US Restaurants Properties Master LP, a Delaware limited
partnership and US Restaurants Properties Operating LP, a Delaware limited
partnership whereby the Partnership would sell its restaurant assets to USRP
Operating LP for $7,571,234 and certain of its notes receivable at a price which
provides USRP Operating LP with a 13.5% yield. USRP Operating LP will pay for
the purchase of the assets with limited partnership units of USRP Master LP.
USRP Master LP is a New York Stock Exchange traded master limited partnership
traded under the symbol "USV".

     The transaction which is subject to certain contingencies, including
approval by the limited partners of the Partnership is expected to close in the
first half of 1997. The transaction is expected to be tax-free for most limited
partners. After the sale of the Partnership's assets, the Partnership expects to
liquidate, distributing to the Unitholders the limited partnership interests in
USRP Master LP and any cash reserves.

ITEM 10.  Directors and Executive Officers of the Partnership.
          --------------------------------------------------- 

     The Partnership has no directors or executive officers.

     The Partnership's general partner is Mr. B. Wayne Hughes, age 63.  Mr.
Hughes manages and makes investment decisions for the Partnership.  Mr. Hughes
has been a director of Public Storage, Inc. ("PSI"), a real estate investment
trust ("REIT"),  since its organization in 1980 and was President and Co-Chief
Executive Officer from 1980 until November 1991 when he became Chairman of the
Board and sole Chief Executive Officer. Since 1990, Mr. Hughes has been Chairman
of the Board and Chief Executive Officer Public Storage Properties XI, Inc.,
Public Storage Properties XIV, Inc., Public Storage Properties XV, Inc., Public
Storage Properties XVI, Inc., Public Storage Properties XVII, Inc., Public
Storage Properties XVIII, Inc., Public Storage Properties XIX, Inc., Public
Storage Properties XX, Inc., (collectively, the Public Storage Properties
REITs"), REITs organized by affiliates of PSI.  Mr. Hughes has been active in
the real estate investment field during the past 26 years.

     Pursuant to Articles XVI, XVII and XXI of the Partnership's Amended
Certificate and Agreement of Limited Partnership, the general partner continues
to serve until (i) death, insanity, insolvency, bankruptcy or dissolution, (ii)
withdrawal with the consent of any other general partner and a majority vote of
the limited partners, or (iii) removal by a majority vote of the limited
partners.

     There have been no events under any bankruptcy act, no criminal
proceedings, and no judgments or injunctions material to the evaluation of the
ability of the general partner during the past five years.

ITEM 11.  Executive Compensation.
          ---------------------- 

     The Partnership has no subsidiaries, directors or officers.  See Item 13
for a description of certain transactions between the Partnership and its
general partner and affiliates.

ITEM 12.  Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management.
          -------------------------------------------------------------- 

          (a)  As of the date hereof, no person is known by the Partnership to
               own beneficially more than 5% of the units of limited partnership
               interest.

          (b)  The Partnership has no officers and directors.


               Mr. Hughes and Madison, the two original general partners,
               initially contributed $262,000 to the capital of the Partnership.
               As a result Mr. Hughes, who succeeded to Madison's general
               partner interest in December 1989, will participate in the
               distributions to all of the Partnership's partners and in the
               Partnership's profits and losses in the same proportion that such
               capital contribution bears to the total capital contributions.
               Mr. Hughes and Madison also contributed $912,000 to be used
               primarily to fund the Partnership's capital and liquidity needs
               during the restructuring period. (See Item 1 for additional
               information regarding this contribution.)  Because the Limited
               Partners received the benefit of Madison's contribution, the
               amount contributed is reflected in the financial statements
               attached to this report as a General Partner contribution with a
               subsequent "equity transfer" to the Limited Partners.

                                      10
<PAGE>
 
          (c)  Except as set forth below, the Partnership knows of no
               contractual arrangements, the operation of the terms of which may
               at a subsequent date result in a change in control of the
               Partnership. Articles XVI, XVII and Section 21.1 of the
               Partnership's Amended Certificate and Agreement of Limited
               Partnership, provide, in substance, that the Limited Partners
               shall have the right, by majority vote, to remove a general
               partner and that a general partner may designate a successor with
               the consent of any other general partner and a majority of the
               limited partners.

ITEM 13.  Certain Relationships and Related Transactions.
          ---------------------------------------------- 

     The Limited Partnership Agreement provides that the general partner will be
entitled to cash incentive distributions in an amount equal to (i) 8% of cash
flow from operations until the distributions to all partners from all sources
equal their capital contributions; thereafter, 25% of cash flow from operations,
and (ii) 25% of distributions from net proceeds from sale and financing of the
Partnership's properties remaining after distribution to all partners of any
portion thereof required to cause distributions to partners from all sources to
equal their capital contributions.  Because of the Partnership's disappointing
operating results, the General Partners waived their incentive distributions
associated with the Partnership's distributions to Limited Partners from the
second quarter of 1988 through fourth quarter 1990.  In 1996, the General
Partner received $59,000 in incentive distributions and $7,000 with respect to
his capital contributions.

The Partners
QSR Income Properties, Ltd.,
a California Limited Partnership

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of QSR Income Properties, Ltd.,
a California Limited Partnership, as of December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the
related statements of operations, partners' equity and cash flows for each of
the three years in the period ended December 31, 1996.  Our audits also included
the schedule listed in the index at item 14(a).  These financial statements and
schedule are the responsibility of the Partnership's management.  Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and
schedule based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements 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 financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of QSR Income Properties, Ltd., a
California Limited Partnership, at December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the results
of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period
ended December 31, 1996, in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.  Also, in our opinion, the related financial statement schedule,
when considered in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole,
presents fairly in all material respects the information set forth therein.

                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                               December 31, 1996


1.   Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Partnership Matters

     Description of Partnership
     --------------------------

          QSR Income Properties, Ltd., a California Limited Partnership (the
     "Partnership"), was formed in November 1985 to acquire, own and operate
     Rocky Rococo Restaurants.  The offering terminated on April 30, 1987 with
     52,004 units issued and outstanding, which resulted in $26,002,000 of
     limited partner funds being raised.  During 1989, the limited partners
     approved the resignation of Madison Pizza Corporation ("MPC") as Corporate
     General Partner and the designation of B. Wayne Hughes, the Individual
     General Partner, to succeed to the Corporate General Partner's interest.

          The Partnership operated its facilities as Rocky Rocco pizza
     restaurants until 1988. During 1988, the General Partners decided to
     discontinue restaurant operations because the restaurants had not operated
     profitably. The Partnership currently leases its facilities to unaffiliated
     third parties.

     Restaurant Facilities
     ---------------------

          The cost of land includes appraisal fees, closing costs and legal fees
     related to the acquisition.  Buildings and equipment are depreciated on the
     straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives of 30 years and 5
     years, respectively. Buildings which are situated on leased premises are
     depreciated over their minimum lease term, 20 years.

          In November 1995, the Partnership's Iliff, Colorado facility was sold
     for $382,000 resulting in a $406,000 loss on the sale of the facility.  The
     Partnership received net sales proceeds of $352,000 net of selling cost of
     $30,000.  The Partnership's net book value at the time of the sale was
     $758,000.

          In 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
     Financial Accounting Standards No.121 ("Statement 121"), "Accounting for
     the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be
     Disposed of." Statement 121 requires impairment losses to be recorded on
     long-lived assets used in operations when indicators of impairment are
     present and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those
     assets are less than the assets' carrying amount. Statement 121 also
     addresses the accounting for long-lived assets that are expected to be
     disposed of. The Partnership adopted Statement 121 in 1996 and based on
     current circumstances, the Partnership wrote-down the carrying value of its
     real estate facilities to net realizable values (see footnote 4).

     Other Assets
     ------------

          Other assets at December 31, 1996 represent primarily capitalized
     costs associated with the proposed sale of the Partnership assets in 1997
     (see footnote 4). The amounts will be expensed in 1997 upon consummation of
     the sale..

     Distributions
     -------------

          Cash distributions per unit were $13.00, $13.00, $35.25 for the years
     ended December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994, respectively.  Incentive
     distributions to the General Partner amounted to $59,000, $59,000 and
     $161,000 for 1996, 1995 and 1994, respectively.

                       a California Limited Partnership 

                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                               December 31, 1996


     Allocation of Net Income or Loss
     --------------------------------

          The general partner's share of net income or loss consists of a
     percentage of incentive distributions received, cash flow (as defined)
     which relates to the general partner's share of cash distributions as set
     forth in the Partnership Agreement.  In addition, the general partner's
     share of net income or loss consists of amounts attributable to his 1%
     capital contribution.  All remaining net income or loss is allocated to the
     limited partners.

     Use of Estimates
     ----------------

          The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with
     generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make
     estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial
     statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those
     estimates.

     Reclassifications
     -----------------

          Certain reclassifications have been made to the financial statements
     for  the years ended December 31, 1995 and 1994 in order to conform with
     the 1996 presentation.

2.   Cash and Cash Equivalents

          The Partnership considers all highly liquid investments with a
     maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.

3.   Notes Receivable

          As of September 30, 1988, Rocky Rococo Corporation ("RRC"), an
     affiliate of MPC, owed the Partnership approximately $275,000, which
     comprised $205,000 in unearned management fees and $70,000 in certain other
     advances.  As RRC did not have the funds available to repay these moneys,
     the Partnership elected to have RRC assign to them a $275,000 interest in a
     secured note receivable due to RRC.  The note bears interest at the prime
     rate plus 2% per annum (10.5% at December 31, 1996) and provides for
     monthly principal and interest payments through April 22, 2002, the
     maturity date of the note, at which time outstanding principal and accrued
     interest is due and payable.  At December 31, 1996 and 1995 this note had a
     remaining balance of $108,000 and $119,000, respectively.

          In connection with the sale of the Partnership's assets to USRP
     Operating LP, the Partnership will sell its interest in the RRC note to B.
     Wayne Hughes, the General Partner  at its then outstanding principal
     balance (see note 4).

          The Partnership has received several notes related to the sale of
     restaurant equipment through December 31, 1991.  These notes, which total
     approximately $34,000, require quarterly payments, are fully amortizing and
     accrue interest at 8.5%.  In addition, the Partnership has received one
     note from a lessee as partial payment of some leasehold improvements.  The
     notes mature on various dates through 2003.  The Partnership received
     $4,000, $5,000 and $8,000 in interest from these notes during the years
     ended December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994, respectively.

</TABLE>

          In November 1995, the general partner decided to place the facility
     assets for sale and hired an investment banker to determine the valuation
     of the assets and solicit offers. Based on offers to buy the assets
     received, the general partner determined that the carrying value of the
     restaurant facilities needed to be reduced to present the value of such
     assets at their net realizable value. Consequently, the Partnership wrote-
     down the carrying value of its restaurant facilities which resulted in a
     charge to income of $2,350,000 for the year ended December 31, 1996.

          On September 16, 1996, the general partner entered into a purchase and
     sale agreement with US Restaurants Properties Master LP, a Delaware limited
     partnership  and US Restaurants Properties Operating LP, a Delaware limited
     partnership whereby the Partnership would sell its restaurant assets to
     USRP Operating LP for $7,571,234 and certain of its notes receivable at a
     price which provides USRP Operating LP with a 13.5% yield. USRP Operating
     LP will pay for the purchase of the assets with limited partnership units
     of USRP Master LP. USRP Master LP is a New York Stock Exchange traded
     master limited partnership traded under the symbol "USV".

                               December 31, 1996


     The transaction which is subject to certain contingencies, including
approval by the limited partners of the Partnership is expected to close in the
first half of 1997. The transaction is expected to be tax-free for most limited
partners. After the sale of the Partnership assets, the Partnership expects to
liquidate distributing to the Unitholders the limited partnership interests in
USRP Master LP and any cash reserves.

     During 1995, the Partnership wrote-down the carrying value of its Coon
Rapids, Minnesota restaurant facility to its estimated net realizable value.  
The write-down resulted in a charge to income of $400,000 in 1995.

     Equipment was fully depreciated at December 31, 1994.

     Sixteen facilities owned or leased by the Company were leased or subleased
to unaffiliated third parties on a triple net basis for minimum lease terms of 2
to 20 years.  The minimum future lease income to be received from these
operating leases is as follows:

     The Partnership is obligated under various operating leases on its closed
restaurant facilities.  Each of these facilities has been subleased to an
unaffiliated third party.  Sub-lease income under these leases was $209,000,
$203,000 and $203,000 for the period ended December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994,
respectively.  Lease expense incurred under these leases for the period ended
December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994 was $120,000, $121,000 and $115,000,
respectively.  At December 31, 1996 the Partnership had agreements for the
following minimum sublease income and lease obligations (not including impact of
options to extend maturity dates):

                          QSR INCOME PROPERTIES, LTD.
                       a California Limited Partnership

                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                               December 31, 1996

 
5.   General Partner Equity

          Initially, the general partners contributed 1% of the aggregate
     capital contributions of the Partnership.  The general partner has an 8%
     interest in cash distributions attributable to operations (exclusive of
     distributions attributable to sale and financing proceeds) until the
     limited partners recover all of their investment, regardless of source.
     Thereafter, the general partner has a 25% interest in all cash
     distributions (including sale and financing proceeds).  At December 31,
     1996 cumulative distributions to limited partners were $7,634,000;
     accordingly $18,368,000 of additional distributions are required to be made
     to the limited partners for the limited partners to recover their capital
     contributions.

6.   Taxes Based on Income

          Taxes based on income are the responsibility of the individual
     partners and, accordingly, the Partnership's financial statements do not
     reflect a provision for such taxes.  Taxable net income was $669,000,
     $132,000 and $549,000 for the years ended December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994,
     respectively.  The difference between taxable net income and net income is
     primarily related to depreciation expense resulting from differences in
     depreciation methods and estimated reserves for net realizable value of
     restaurant facilities.

7.   Cost of Operations

          For the years ended December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994 cost of
     operations were comprised of the following:

8.   Idle Facility Cost

          Idle facility cost is primarily comprised of utility costs, building
     maintenance, property taxes and insurance costs of a restaurant facility
     that was closed until December 1996 when it was leased to an unaffiliated
     third party.

                    NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

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,
     1996.

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 March 31, 1997 and December 31, 1996, the results of its operations for
     the three months ended March 31, 1997 and 1996 and its cash flows for the
     three months then ended.

3.   The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 1997 are not
     necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year.

4.   In November 1995, the general partner decided to place the facility assets
     for sale and hired an investment banker to determine the valuation of the
     assets and solicit offers.  Based on offers to buy the assets received, the
     general partner determined that the carrying value of the assets needed to
     be reduced by $2,350,000 to present the value of such assets at their net
     realizable value.  Such valuation assumes costs to be incurred in the
     ordinary course of sale.

     On September 16, 1996, the general partner entered into a purchase and sale
     agreement with US Restaurants Properties Master LP ("USRPMLP"), a Delaware
     limited partnership and US Restaurants Properties Operating LP ("USRPOLP"),
     a Delaware limited partnership whereby the Partnership would sell its
     restaurant assets to USRPOLP for $7,571,234 and certain of its notes
     receivable at a price which provides USRPOLP with a 13.5% yield.  USRPOLP
     will pay for the purchase of the assets with limited partnership units of
     USRPMLP. USRPMLP is a New York Stock Exchange traded master limited
     partnership traded under the symbol "USV."

     The transaction which is subject to certain contingencies, including
     approval by the limited partners of the Partnership is expected to close in
     the first half of 1997.  The transaction is expected to be tax-free for
     most limited partners.  After the sale of the Partnership's assets, the
     Partnership expects to liquidate, distributing to the Unitholders the
     limited partnership interests in USRPMLP and any cash reserves.

                     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
               OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
                                MARCH 31, 1997

     The Partnership was formed to acquire and operate pizza restaurants.  All
twenty-three of the Partnership's restaurants were closed because of
disappointing operating results.  Of the twenty-three restaurants closed, four
have been sold, three lease commitments have been terminated and sixteen
facilities have been leased to unaffiliated third parties.

Results of Operations
- ---------------------

     The Partnership's net income of $242,000 and $185,000 for the three months
ended March 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively, represent an increase in income of
$57,000.  This increase is primarily attributable to a decrease in depreciation
expense related to the valuation of the Partnership's facility assets at their
net realizable value.

     Lease income for the three months ended March 30, 1997 increased $5,000
over the same period in 1996 as the result of one additional facility being
leased in 1997 compared to the same period in 1996.  Included in lease income
for each of the three month periods ended March 31, 1997 and 1996 is
approximately $17,000 of additional lease income under a percentage rent feature
with respect to incremental sales above specified levels.

     Idle facility costs decreased $3,000 for the three months ended March 31,
1997 compared to the same period in 1996.  The decrease was primarily
attributable to decreases in utilities and property tax expenses associated with
the Partnership's final restaurant facility redeployed in December 1996.

     Depreciation expense decreased $58,000 for the three months ended March 31,
1997 compared to the same period in 1995.  The decreases are the result of the
Partnership's presentation of its properties at net realizable value and the
discontinuation of provisions for depreciation.

Liquidity and capital resources
- -------------------------------

     For the three months ended March 31, 1997, the Partnership's activities
generated cash flow of $167,000.  This represents an $82,000 decrease compared
to the cash flow of $249,000 generated by the Partnership for the three months
ended March 31, 1996.  The decrease is primarily attributable to capitalized
costs related to the proposed sale of the Partnership's properties.  Such costs
are reflected in other assets.  Cash flow from the Partnership's operations has
been sufficient to meet all current obligations of the Company.

     For the three months ended March 31, 1997, the Partnership's distribution
increased to $29.25 from $3.25 per Partnership unit for the three months ended
March 31, 1996.  Included in the distribution for the three months ended March
31, 1997 was a special distribution of $26.00 per Partnership unit.

     In November 1995, the general partner decided to place the facility assets
for sale and hired an investment banker to determine the valuation of the assets
and solicit offers.  Based on offers to buy the assets received, the general
