                     NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                                   (UNAUDITED)


1.       The accompanying  unaudited  condensed  financial  statements have been
         prepared  pursuant to the rules and  regulations  of the Securities and
         Exchange  Commission.  Certain  information  and  footnote  disclosures
         normally included in financial  statements  prepared in accordance with
         generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted
         pursuant to such rules and regulations,  although  management  believes
         that  the  disclosures  contained  herein  are  adequate  to  make  the
         information   presented  not  misleading.   These  unaudited  condensed
         financial  statements  should be read in conjunction with the financial
         statements and related notes appearing in the  Partnership's  Form 10-K
         for the year ended December 31, 1995.

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,  1996,  the results of  operations  for the three
         months  ended  March  31,  1996 and 1995 and cash  flows  for the three
         months then ended.

3.       The results of  operations  for the three months ended March 31, 1996 
         are not  necessarily  indicative of the results to be expected for the
         full year.

                        a California Limited Partnership
                      MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
                OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS:
- ----------------------

Three months ended March 31, 1996 compared to three months ended March 31, 1995:

     The  Partnership's net income for the three months ended March 31, 1996 was
$244,000  compared  to  $260,000  for the same  period in 1995,  representing  a
decrease  of  $16,000  or 6%.  This  decrease  was  primarily  due to  increased
depreciation  expense  combined  with a decrease in interest  income,  partially
offset by increased property  operating results at the Partnership's  facilities
combined with a decrease in administrative expenses.

     Net operating  income (rental income less cost of operations and management
fees and excluding  depreciation  expense)  increased by $7,000 or 2%, as rental
income increased by $13,000 or 2%, and cost of operations  (including management
fees and excluding depreciation expense) increased by $6,000 or 3%.

     Rental income for the Partnership's  mini-warehouse operations was $568,000
compared  to  $556,000  for the three  months  ended  March  31,  1996 and 1995,
respectively,  representing an increase of $12,000 or 2%. The increase in rental
income  was   primarily   attributable   to   increased   rental  rates  at  the
mini-warehouse facilities. The monthly average realized rent per square foot for
the  mini-warehouse  facilities  was $.74  compared to $.71 for the three months
ended March 31, 1996 and 1995,  respectively.  The  weighted  average  occupancy
levels at the mini-warehouse  facilities decreased from 90% to 88% for the three
months  ended  March  31,  1995 and  1996,  respectively.  Costs  of  operations
(including  management  fees) increased  $12,000 or 7% to $192,000 from $180,000
for the three months ended March 31, 1996 and 1995,  respectively.  Accordingly,
for the Partnership's  mini-warehouse operations,  property net operating income
remained  stable at $376,000 for both three month  periods  ended March 31, 1995
and 1996.

     Rental income for the  Partnership's  business park operations was $129,000
compared  to  $128,000  for the three  months  ended  March  31,  1996 and 1995,
respectively,  representing  an increase of $1,000.  This increase was primarily
attributable  to an  increase in the  weighted  average  occupancy  level at the
Partnership's  business  park,  most of which was offset by a decrease in rental
rates.  The weighted  average  occupancy  level at the business park  facilities
increased  from 93% to 97% for the three  months  ended March 31, 1995 and 1996,
respectively. The monthly average realized rent per square foot for the business
park  facilities  was $.59 compared to $.64 for the three months ended March 31,
1996 and 1995,  respectively.  Cost of operations  (including  management  fees)
decreased $6,000 or 10% to $52,000 from $58,000 for the three months ended March
31, 1996 and 1995,  respectively.  Accordingly,  for the Partnership's  business
park  facilities,  property net operating income increased by $7,000 or 10% from
$70,000  to  $77,000  for the  three  months  ended  March  31,  1995 and  1996,
respectively.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
- -------------------------------

     The  Partnership  has adequate  sources of cash to finance its  operations,
both on a short-term and long-term  basis,  primarily from internally  generated
cash from property operations and cash reserves.  Cash generated from operations
($485,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1996) has been sufficient to meet
all current obligations of the Partnership.

     During 1996, the Partnership anticipates  approximately $249,000 of capital
improvements.  Total capital improvements were $7,000 for the three months ended
March 31, 1996.

     The  Partnership  paid  distributions  to the limited and general  partners
totaling $356,000 ($6.76 per unit) and $44,000,  respectively,  during the first
three months of 1996. Future  distribution rates may be adjusted to levels which
are supported by operating  cash flow after capital  improvements  and any other
necessary obligations.
