NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 1998
(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, 1997.
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, 1998, the results of operations for the three
months ended March 31, 1998 and 1997 and cash flows for the three months
then ended.
3. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 1998 are
not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full
year.
4. In January 1997, the Partnership and PSI and other related partnerships
transferred a total of 35 business parks to PS Business Parks, LP
("PSBPLP"), an operating partnership formed to own and operate business
parks in which PSI has a significant interest. Included among the
properties transferred was the Partnership's business park in exchange
for a partnership interest in PSBPLP. The general partner of PSBPLP is PS
Business Parks, Inc.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Results of Operations:
- ----------------------
THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1998 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1997:
The Partnership's net income for the three months ended March 31, 1998
was $350,000 compared to $306,000 for the same period in 1997, representing an
increase of $44,000, or 14%. The increase is primarily attributable to an
increase in the Partnership's mini-warehouse operations.
Rental income for the Partnership's mini-warehouse operations was
$671,000 compared to $621,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1998 and
1997, respectively, representing an increase of $50,000, or 8%. The increase in
rental income was primarily attributable to increased rental rates at the
mini-warehouse facilities, combined with increased occupancy levels. The monthly
average realized rent per square foot for the mini-warehouse facilities was $.83
compared to $.79 for the three months ended March 31, 1998 and 1997,
respectively. The weighted average occupancy levels at the mini-warehouse
facilities increased from 90% to 93% for the three months ended March 31, 1997
and 1998, respectively. Cost of operations (including management fees) increased
$18,000, or 9%, to $227,000 from $209,000 for the three months ended March 31,
1998 and 1997, respectively. This increase was primarily attributable to
increases in advertising, property tax, and repairs and maintenance expenses.
Accordingly, for the Partnership's mini-warehouse operations, property net
operating income increased $32,000, or 8%, from $412,000 to $444,000 for the
three months ended March 31, 1997 and 1998, 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
($469,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1998) has been sufficient to meet
all current obligations of the Partnership.
During 1998, the Partnership anticipates approximately $188,000 of
capital improvements. Total capital improvements were $33,000 for the three
months ended March 31, 1998.
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 1998. Future distribution rates may be adjusted to levels which
are supported by operating cash flow after capital improvements and any other
necessary obligations.
