                   Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Note 1.           SUMMARY OF PARTNERSHIP AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING
                  POLICIES

Glenborough  Partners,  A  California  Limited  Partnership   ("Partnership"  or
"Partners"),  is the  successor to  Glenborough  Limited,  A California  Limited
Partnership pursuant to section 15d-5 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

On May 21, 1992, GOCO Realty Fund I, the  partnership  holding and operating the
Partnership's  real property,  filed a petition in the United States  Bankruptcy
Court for the Northern District of California for  reorganization  under Chapter
11 of the Federal Bankruptcy Code. On January 13, 1994, a plan of reorganization
was filed with the  Bankruptcy  court which became  effective  January 24, 1994.
This  partnership  has since  been  renamed,  GPA  Ltd.,  A  California  Limited
Partnership ("GPA").

The general  partners of both Partners and GPA are  Glenborough  Corporation,  a
California  corporation  (formerly known as Glenborough Realty  Corporation) and
Robert Batinovich (collectively "Glenborough" or "General Partner"). Glenborough
Corporation  is the managing  general  partner of the  Partnership.  Glenborough
Partners is the sole limited partner of GPA.

To  facilitate  the  Partnership's  holding and transfer of real property as set
forth  under  the plan of  reorganization,  two  partnerships  were  created  in
February,  1994: (i) GPA West,  L.P.  ("West");  and (ii) GPA  Industrial,  L.P.
("Industrial").  A third  subsidiary  partnership,  GPA Bond  L.P.("Bond"),  was
created in December,  1994 to hold and operate a property  purchased on December
29, 1994.

Through December 31, 1995, all three  partnerships were subsidiaries of GPA. The
general partners of each of these partnerships were Glenborough  Corporation and
Robert  Batinovich  while the sole limited  partner of each was GPA. On December
31, 1995, the Partnership  contributed  Industrial and its four properties to an
affiliated  partnership,   Glenborough  Properties,  L.P.  ("Properties"),   the
operating partnership of Glenborough Realty Trust Incorporated  ("GRTI"), a real
estate  investment trust managed by affiliates of the  Partnership,  in exchange
for 542,333  limited  partnership  units in  Properties.  The debt  securing the
properties  owned by Industrial was assumed by the acquiring  partnership.  As a
result, Industrial ceased to be a subsidiary at the end of calendar year 1995.

On July 15, 1996, the Partnership contributed its 45% non-voting limited partner
interest  in UCT (see Note 7) to  Properties,  in  exchange  for 10,606  limited
partnership  units  in  Properties.  This  transaction  gave the  Partnership  a
cumulative total of 552,939 units in Properties.

                              GLENBOROUGH PARTNERS,
                        A CALIFORNIA LIMITED PARTNERSHIP

                   Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

                               September 30, 1996
                                   (Unaudited)

On September  24, 1996,  the  partners of Bond sold their  respective  ownership
interests in Bond to Properties and GRT  Corporation,  a wholly owned subsidiary
of GRTI.  Properties  issued 26,067 limited  partnership units having an initial
redemption  value  of  $400,000  (based  on a $15 per  unit  value)  and  repaid
approximately $2,800,000 of indebtedness secured by the property in exchange for
the interests in Bond.  As of September 24, 1996, as a result of the sale,  Bond
is no longer a subsidiary of the Partnership.

The  exchanges   described  above  eliminated  the  Partnership's   real  estate
investments, reducing the Partnership's real estate holding to one property held
for sale.

In the opinion of Glenborough  Corporation,  the managing general  partner,  the
accompanying unaudited financial statements contain all adjustments  (consisting
of only normal accruals)  necessary to present fairly the financial  position of
Glenborough  Partners, A California Limited  Partnership,  at September 30, 1996
and December 31, 1995,  the related  statements of operations  for the three and
nine months ended  September 30, 1996 and 1995,  and the statements of partners'
equity and cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 and 1995.

Consolidation  -  The   accompanying   consolidated   financial   statements  of
Glenborough  Partners,  A California Limited Partnership include the accounts of
Glenborough Partners and its majority owned partnerships GPA Ltd., GPA West, and
GPA Bond (through September 24, 1996). All significant intercompany balances and
transactions have been eliminated in the consolidation.

Allocation  of net income  (loss) - Pursuant to the  partnership  agreements  of
Partners  and  GPA  Ltd.,  the  general  partners  held  a  2.27%  share  of the
Partnership's  net income or loss and  distributions  during  the  period  ended
September 30, 1996.  This  percentage  is derived from the general  partners' 1%
direct  interest in GPA Ltd. and a 1.27% indirect  interest  through their 1.28%
general partner interest in Glenborough Partners' 99% interest in GPA Ltd.

As a result of an offer  made to all of the  Partnership's  investors  in April,
1996, the Partnership paid $127,000,  a substantial  discount from the estimated
value  of the  units,  to  repurchase  50,954  limited  partnership  units  from
investors.  These units were  cancelled with an effective date of June 30, 1996,
resulting in 2,910,899  limited  partnership  units  outstanding  as of June 30,
1996. The reduction in outstanding limited partnership units resulted in revised
ownership  interests  of 2.29% and 97.71% by the  general  partners  and limited
partners, respectively.

Reclassifications  - Certain items in the 1995  financial  statements  have been
reclassified to conform to the 1996 financial statement presentation.

These  unaudited  financial  statements  should be read in conjunction  with the
Notes  to  Consolidated  Financial  Statements  included  in  the  1995  audited
financial statements.

Note 3.           RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

In accordance with the Limited Partnership and Property  Management  Agreements,
the Partnership shall pay Glenborough  compensation for services provided to the
Partnership and management of the Partnership's assets.

All fees and  reimbursable  expenses  paid to  Glenborough  and  included in the

                                                  =========      ========

The Partnership also reimburses  Glenborough for expenses  incurred for services
provided  to  the  Partnership  such  as  accounting,  investor  services,  data
processing, legal and administrative services, and the actual costs of goods and
materials used for or by the  Partnership.  Glenborough was reimbursed  $165,000
and $219,000 for such expenses  during the nine months ended  September 30, 1996
and 1995, respectively.

Note 4.           NOTES RECEIVABLE

On August 1, 1996, the  Partnership  purchased a $546,370  promissory note and a
$1,350,000 credit with the NuView Union School District  ("School  Credits") for
$300,000 from an  unaffiliated  partnership  ($250,000  payable at September 30,
1996,  paid in  October,  1996).  The note  requires  no  accrual  or payment of
interest,  has a ten year term and provides for a discounted  payoff of $246,000
in the first year  increasing at increments of $30,000 in each  subsequent  year
through the ten year term.  As of September  30, 1996,  the note  receivable  is
recorded at its  estimated  fair value of $300,000.  Due to the  uncertainty  of
realizing any value on the School  Credits,  the Partnership has not recorded an
asset for the School Credits.  The School Credits represent prepaid property tax
assessments on specified parcels of land in the Tri-City area of San

Bernardino,  California. In order for the specified parcels to be developed, the
School Credits must first be repaid to the Partnership.

Note 5.           PREPAID EXPENSES AND OTHER ASSETS

At December 31, 1995, the  Partnership  had incurred $3,000 in costs and $75,000
in  purchase  deposits  for the  potential  acquisition  of a lodging  property.
Through May,  1996,  costs had  increased  to $35,000 and  purchase  deposits to
$500,000.  However,  in May,  1996,  the  Partnership's  offer  was  outbid in a
bankruptcy  court action  procedure  and the $500,000 in purchase  deposits plus
accrued interest was refunded to the Partnership.  Additionally,  in June, 1996,
the Partnership received a net breakup fee of $52,000 which is included in other
income on the 1996 statement of operations.

Note 6.           INVESTMENT IN UNCONSOLIDATED JOINT VENTURES

GRC AIRPORT ASSOCIATES:
In  September,  1995,  the  Partnership  made  a  $1,050,000  investment  in  an
unconsolidated joint venture, GRC Airport Associates. The sole real estate asset
of GRC Airport  Associates is a 216,000 square foot industrial  warehouse in San
Bruno,  California  purchased  in  October,  1995  for  $9,225,000.   Since  the
Partnership  only owns a 25% interest in this joint  venture and does not have a
controlling  interest,  the  Partnership  accounts for this joint venture by the
equity method.

In  the  nine  months  ended  September  30,  1996,  the  Partnership   received
distributions totaling $76,000. A third quarter 1996 distribution of $26,000 was
declared and paid to the Partnership in October, 1996.

UNIVERSITY CLUB TOWER:
In 1994, the Partnership made a $1,000,000  principal  payment on a note payable
on behalf of an  affiliated  partnership,  University  Club Tower  ("UCT").  The
payment  assisted in  obtaining  free and clear title from Brazos (the  previous
lender)  on  the  four  buildings  acquired  at a  specified  release  price  by
Industrial  (see  Note  1).  Financing  for the  four  buildings  was  extremely
difficult to find in the 1993/1994  market so as an inducement for the lender to
finance this release  price  purchase,  the  Partnership  paid down a portion of
UCT's note payable in good faith.

In December,  1994, the  Partnership  and UCT agreed that the $1,000,000 paid by
the  Partnership  in 1994 on behalf of UCT would be treated as an  investment in
UCT. This gave the Partnership a 45% non-voting limited partner interest,  a 99%
allocation of future income and losses,  and an economic  interest in any future
upside of this partnership, without exposure to any loss beyond

its investment by the Partnership.  Under these  circumstances,  the Partnership
accounted for this investment in joint venture using the equity method.

On July 15, 1996, the Partnership contributed its 45% non-voting limited partner
interest in UCT to Properties,  in exchange for 10,606 limited partnership units
in Properties (see Note 7).

Note 7.           INVESTMENT IN AFFILIATED PARTNERSHIPS

GLENBOROUGH PROPERTIES:
As  stated  in  Note  1, on  December  31,  1995,  the  Partnership  contributed
Industrial  and its four  properties  including  related  debt, to an affiliated
partnership,  Properties, in exchange for 542,333 limited partnership units. The
net assets  contributed  to the  operating  partnership  had a net book value of
zero.

On July 15, 1996, the Partnership contributed its 45% non-voting limited partner
interest  in UCT (see Note 6) to  Properties,  in  exchange  for 10,606  limited
partnership  units  in  Properties.  This  transaction  gave the  Partnership  a
cumulative total of 552,939 units in Properties.

On September 24, 1996, the  Partnership  sold its ownership  interest in Bond to
Properties  in  exchange  for  26,067  limited  partnership  units,  giving  the
Partnership a cumulative total of 579,006 units.  Since the Partnership does not
possess significant influence over Properties and the owned units equate to only
an 8% ownership  interest at September 30, 1996,  the  Partnership  accounts for
this investment using the cost method.

Properties has paid $329,000 in distributions to the Partnership during the nine
months ended  September 30, 1996. A third quarter 1996  distribution of $174,000
was declared by Properties' board of directors in October,  1996 and paid to the
Partnership in November, 1996.

GLENCO SQUAW ASSOCIATES:
In 1996,  the  Partnership  purchased  131,347 units (13% of the total units) in
Glenco Squaw  Associates  ("Squaw")  from  investors  for  $352,000.  Squaw is a
partnership  whose sole asset is a promissory note from the sale of its indirect
interest in a resort in Squaw Valley, California. Since the Partnership does not
posses  significant  influence  over  Squaw  and owns only a 13%  interest,  the
Partnership accounts for this investment in joint venture using the cost method.

Item 2.        Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
               Results of Operations

INTRODUCTION

The following  discussion  addresses the  Partnership's  financial  condition at
September 30, 1996 and its results of  operations  for the three and nine months
ended  September  30,  1996  and  1995.  This  information  should  be  read  in
conjunction  with the  Partnership's  audited  December  31,  1995  Consolidated
Financial Statements, notes thereto and other information contained elsewhere in
this report.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

On December 31, 1995, the Partnership contributed a subsidiary partnership,  GPA
Industrial,  L.P.,  and  its  four  properties  to  an  affiliated  partnership,
Glenborough  Properties  L.P.  ("Properties"),   the  operating  partnership  of
Glenborough Realty Trust Incorporated, a real estate investment trust managed by
affiliates of the Partnership, in exchange for 542,333 limited partnership units
or 13% of the units in that partnership.  The debt securing the properties owned
by GPA  Industrial,  L.P.  was assumed by  Properties.  As a result,  Industrial
ceased to be a subsidiary of the  Partnership at the end of 1995. The net assets
contributed to Properties had a net book value of zero.

On July 15, 1996, the Partnership contributed its 45% non-voting limited partner
interest in  University  Club Tower ("UCT") to Properties in exchange for 10,606
limited  partnership  units. The net investment  contributed to Properties had a
net book value of zero. The contribution increased the Partnership's  investment
in Properties to 552,939  limited  partnership  units or 14% of the  outstanding
units in Properties.

On  September  24,  1996,  the  Partnership  sold GPA Bond  L.P.,  a  subsidiary
partnership,  to Properties in exchange for 26,067  limited  partnership  units,
giving the Partnership a cumulative total of 579,006 limited  partnership  units
in Properties.  Due to Properties'  issuance of additional  limited  partnership
units to other  investors,  this equates to only 8% of the  outstanding  limited
partnership units in Properties as of September 30, 1996.

Properties  has made and is  projected to continue to make  distributions  at an
annual rate of $1.20 per limited  partnership  unit in 1996.  The projected cash
flow to the  Partnership  is greater  than the  estimated  cash flow (after debt
service  payments) that the Partnership  would have received had it retained GPA
Industrial L.P., UCT and GPA Bond, L.P. Through  September 30, 1996,  Properties
has paid a total of $329,000 in 1996 distributions to the Partnership.

In June, 1996 the Partnership repurchased 50,954 units from its limited partners
at a price of $2.50 per unit,  which due to the  illiquidity of the units,  is a
substantial  discount  from the estimated  value of the units.  These units have
been  cancelled,  which  provides each  remaining  unitholder a slightly  larger
interest in the  Partnership's  assets,  allowing all  investors to share in the
benefits  from this  purchase.  Management  believes  that the limited  partners
opting to sell their  ownership  units back to the Partnership did so based on a
desire to dispose of  illiquid  investments  and  eliminate  the need for annual
processing of tax related information.

In 1996,  the  Partnership  acquired  131,347  units of Glenco Squaw  Associates
("Squaw"),  an affiliated  partnership,  for  $352,000.  Squaw's sole asset is a
promissory  note  from the sale of its  interest  in a resort  in Squaw  Valley,
California.  This was a result of a sale of its indirect interest in the resort,
which provided Squaw with: (i) $700,000 cash; (ii) a $2,300,000  promissory note
bearing interest at 8% per annum;  (iii) additional  payment contingent upon the
consideration received in excess of a stated price related to any future sale of
the  resort;  and (iv) any  future  benefits  from its  disputes  with its joint
venture partners.

On August 1, 1996, the  Partnership  purchased a $546,370  promissory note and a
$1,350,000 Nuview Union School District Credit for $300,000 from an unaffiliated
partnership  which is in the process of  liquidation.  Of the $300,000  purchase
price,  $250,000  was payable at  September  30, 1996 and  subsequently  paid in
October,  1996. The promissory  note requires no accrual or payment of interest,
has a ten year term and  provides  for a  discounted  payoff of  $246,000 in the
first year  increasing at increments of $30,000 in each  subsequent year through
the ten year term. The School Credits represent prepaid property tax assessments
on specified parcels of land in the Tri-City area of San Bernardino, California.
In order for the  specified  parcels to be  developed,  the School  Credits must
first be repaid to the Partnership.

The  Partnership's  recent  investments in real estate  partnerships have either
generated  positive cash flow for the  Partnership  or management  believes have
substantial upside potential.

As of September 30, 1996, the only real estate directly owned by the Partnership
is a 129,500 square foot business center known as Rosemead Springs located in El
Monte,  California,  consisting  of  seven,  one and  two  story  buildings.  On
September 9, 1996, the Partnership refinanced its $2,200,000 debt secured by the
Rosemead  property with a $3,400,000  promissory note. As of September 30, 1996,
$1,200,000 of the total $3,400,000  remains undrawn on the line of credit.  This
new  loan is  secured  by the  Partnership's  interest  in  Properties,  accrues
interest  at a rate of 1  percentage  point  over the  lender's  index  rate and
requires  monthly  interest  only  payments.  The  Rosemead  property  was under
contract to be sold but, the sale fell through and the  Partnership  has resumed
its quest for another suitable buyer.

The  Partnership's  $892,000 cash and cash equivalents  balance at September 30,
1996 is believed by  management  to be  sufficient  to meet near term  operating
requirements.  The Partnership suspended its distributions in 1990 in an attempt
to increase  liquidity and improve its capital resources after paying for tenant
and capital improvements, leasing commissions, refinancing costs, and increasing
debt service payments.  As of November 13, 1996,  distributions remain suspended
and management is unable to predict when they may be resumed.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Rental  revenues  decreased  $582,000 and $1,686,000 or 79% and 76% in the three
and nine months  ended  September  30, 1996 from the three and nine months ended
September  30,  1995  due to the  contribution  of GPA  Industrial  and its four
properties  into an  affiliated  partnership  at December 31, 1995, as discussed
above.

Income from  investment  in  affiliated  partnerships  during the three and nine
months  ended  September  30,  1996  of  $167,000  and  $329,000,  respectively,
represent dividends received from GRTI.

The  Partnership  recognized  $125,000 in gain from debt  forgiveness  after the
lender on the loan secured by the Bond Street  Building  (GPA Bond) had forgiven
$125,000 in debt, prior to the sale of GPA Bond discussed above.

Interest  and other  revenue  increased  during the three and nine months  ended
September  30, 1996 over the three and nine months ended  September 30, 1995 due
to the recognition as other income, the $125,000 non-refundable deposit received
from the purchaser after the Rosemead sale fell through.  Additionally,  in 1996
the  Partnership  received  prior year  property  tax refunds  for the  Rosemead
property.

Operating,  general  and  administrative,   depreciation  and  amortization  and
interest expenses decreased during the three and nine months ended September 30,
1996 compared to the same periods in 1995 due again to the  contribution  of GPA
Industrial and its related properties, along with its debt, to Properties.
