NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
June 30, 1997
 
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
 
DEFINITION OF SPECIAL TERMS:
Capitalized terms used in this report have the same meaning as those terms have
in the Partnership's Registration Statement filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission on Form S-11. Definitions of these terms are contained in
Article III of the First Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership,
which is included in the Registration Statement and incorporated herein by
reference.
 
ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). Under this method of accounting,
revenues are recorded when earned and expenses are recorded when incurred.
 
Preparation of the Partnership's financial statements in conformity with GAAP
requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and
liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of
revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ
from those estimates.
 
The financial information included in these financial statements is unaudited;
however, in management's opinion, all adjustments (consisting of only normal,
recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of the results of
operations for the periods included have been made. Results of operations for
the quarter and six months ended June 30, 1997, are not necessarily indicative
of the operating results for the year ending December 31, 1997.
 
The financial statements include the Partnership's 50% interest in two joint
ventures and a 75% interest in another joint venture with Affiliated
partnerships. Each of these ventures were formed for the purpose of each
acquiring a 100% interest in certain real property and are operated under the
common control of the General Partner. Accordingly, the Partnership's pro rata
share of the ventures' revenues, expenses, assets, liabilities and Partners'
capital was included in the financial statements.
 
Commercial rental properties are recorded at cost, net of any provisions for
value impairment, and depreciated (exclusive of amounts allocated to land) on
the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives. Lease acquisition
fees are recorded at cost and amortized over the life of the lease. Repair and
maintenance costs are expensed as incurred; expenditures for improvements are
capitalized and depreciated over the estimated life of such improvements.
 
The Partnership evaluates its commercial rental properties when conditions
exist which may indicate that it is probable that the sum of expected future
cash flows (undiscounted) from a property is less than its carrying basis. Upon
determination that an impairment has occurred, the carrying basis in the rental
property is reduced to its estimated fair value. Management was not aware of
any indicator that would result in a significant impairment loss during the
periods reported.
 
Property sales are recorded when title transfers and sufficient consideration
has been received by the Partnership. Upon disposition, the related costs and
accumulated depreciation and amortization are removed from the respective
accounts. Gains on sales are recognized in accordance with GAAP.
 
Cash equivalents are considered all highly liquid investments with a maturity
of three months or less when purchased.
 
Investments in debt securities are comprised of corporate debt securities and
are classified as held-to-maturity. These investments are carried at their
amortized cost basis in the financial statements, which approximated fair
value. All of these securities had maturities of less than one year when
purchased.
 
Certain reclassifications have been made to the previously reported 1996
statements in order to provide comparability with the 1997 statements. These
reclassifications had no effect on net income or Partners' (deficit) capital.
 
Reference is made to the Partnership's annual report for the year ended
December 31, 1996, for a description of other accounting policies and
additional details of the Partnership's financial condition, results of
operations, changes in Partners' capital and changes in cash balances for the
year then ended. The details provided in the notes thereto have not changed
except as a result of normal transactions in the interim or as otherwise
disclosed herein.
 
2. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS:
 
In accordance with the Partnership Agreement, as compensation for services
rendered in managing the affairs of the Partnership, the General Partner shall
be entitled to receive subsequent to May 4, 1988, the Termination of the
Offering, a Partnership Management Fee payable annually within 60 days
following the last day of each fiscal year, which shall be an amount equal to
the lesser of (i) 0.5% of the net value of the Partnership's assets as of the
end of such fiscal year reflected on the Certificate of Value furnished to the
Limited Partners, plus, to the extent the Partnership Management Fee paid in
any prior year was less than 0.5% of the net value of the Partnership's assets
in such prior year, the amount of such deficit, or (ii) an amount equal to the
difference between 10% of the Partnership's aggregate Cash Flow (as defined in
the Partnership Agreement) for the period from the Commencement of Operations
to the end of the fiscal year for which such Partnership Management Fee is
payable, and the aggregate amount previously paid to the General Partner as a
Partnership Management Fee. In addition, Sale Proceeds are distributed: first,
75% to all Limited Partners and 25% to the General Partner until the earlier of
(i) receipt by Limited Partners of cumulative distributions of Sale Proceeds in
an amount equal to 100% of their Original Capital Contribution, or (ii) receipt
by the General Partner of cumulative distributions of Sale Proceeds sufficient
to repay all outstanding advances to the Partnership from the General Partner;
thereafter, to the General Partner, until all outstanding advances, if any, to
the Partnership from the General Partner have been repaid; thereafter, to the
Limited Partners, until they have received cumulative distributions of Sale
Proceeds in an amount equal to 100% of their Original Capital Contribution,
plus an amount (including Cash Flow (as defined in the Partnership Agreement))
equal to a cumulative return of 6% per annum simple interest on their Capital
Investment from their investment date in the Partnership; thereafter, 85% to
all Limited Partners; and 15% to the General Partner, provided, however, that
no distribution of the General Partner's 15% share of Sale Proceeds shall be
made until Limited Partners have received the greater of (i) Sale Proceeds plus
Cash Flow (as defined in the Partnership Agreement) previously received in
excess of the Preferred Return equal to 125% of the Limited Partners' Original
Capital Contribution, or (ii) Sale Proceeds plus all Cash Flow (as defined in
the Partnership Agreement) previously received equal to their Original Capital
Contribution plus a 10% per annum simple interest return on their Capital
Investment from the date of investment.
 
In accordance with the Partnership Agreement, Net Profits (exclusive of Net
Profits from the sale or disposition of Partnership properties) shall be
allocated to the General Partner in an amount equal to the greater of 1% of
such Net Profits or the Partnership Management Fee paid by the Partnership to
the General Partner during such year, and the balance, if any, to the Limited
Partners. Net Losses (exclusive of Net Losses from the sale, disposition or
provision for value impairment of Partnership properties) are allocated 1% to
the General Partner and 99% to the Limited Partners. Net Profits from the sale
or disposition of a Partnership property are allocated: first, prior to giving
effect to any

distributions of Sale Proceeds from the transaction, to the General Partner and
Limited Partners with negative balances in their Capital Accounts, pro rata in
proportion to such respective negative balances, to the extent of the total of
such negative balances; second, to each Limited Partner in an amount, if any,
necessary to make the positive balance in its Capital Account equal to the Sale
Proceeds to be distributed to such Limited Partner with respect to the sale or
disposition of such property; third, to the General Partner in an amount, if
any, necessary to make the positive balance in its Capital Account equal to the
Sale Proceeds to be distributed to the General Partner with respect to the sale
or disposition of such property; and fourth, the balance, if any, 15% to the
General Partner and 85% to the Limited Partners. Net Losses from the sale,
disposition or provision for value impairment of Partnership properties are
allocated: first, after giving effect to any distributions of Sale Proceeds
from the transaction to the General Partner and Limited Partners with positive
balances in their Capital Accounts, pro rata in proportion to such respective
positive balances, to the extent of the total amount of such positive balances;
and second, the balance, if any, 1% to the General Partner and 99% to the
Limited Partners. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, there shall be
allocated to the General Partner not less than 1% of all items of Partnership
income, gain, loss, deduction and credit during the existence of the
Partnership. For the quarter and six months ended June 30, 1997, the General
Partner was entitled to a Partnership Management Fee of $18,800 and $37,500,
respectively, and allocated Net Profits of $14,800 and $348,700, respectively.
The Net Profits for the six months ended June 30, 1997 included a gain
allocation of $311,200.
 
In accordance with the Partnership Agreement, the General Partner made advances
to the Partnership in cumulative amounts equal to the Acquisition Fees and the
Partnership Management Fees which were paid to the General Partner or its
Affiliates for distribution to the Limited Partners on a pro rata basis to the
extent that Cash Flow (as defined in the Partnership Agreement) was less than
sufficient to distribute cash in amounts equal to the Limited Partners'
Preferred Return (7.5% per annum noncompounding cumulative return on the
Limited Partners' Capital Investment); provided, however, that the maximum
amount which shall be advanced to the Partnership by the General Partner for
distribution to the Limited Partners shall be the amount of Acquisition Fees
and Partnership Management Fees actually paid to the General Partner or its
Affiliates. Amounts advanced shall bear interest at the rate of 8.5% per annum
simple interest, payable monthly. Repayment of amounts advanced shall be made
only from Cash Flow (as defined in the Partnership Agreement) if and to the
extent it is more than sufficient to distribute cash to the Limited Partners in
amounts equal to the Limited Partners' Preferred Return and from Sale Proceeds
to the extent permitted in the Partnership Agreement. During the quarter ended
March 31, 1997, the General Partner advanced its Partnership Management Fee for
the year ended December 31, 1996 of $153,400 to the Partnership. During the
quarter ended June 30, 1997 the Partnership, in accordance with the Partnership
agreement, repaid the General Partner $2,830,700, which represented 25% of the
Sales Proceeds from the sales of Carrollton Crossroads Shopping Center
("Carrollton") and 3120 Southwest Freeway Office Building ("Southwest
Freeway"). As of June 30, 1997, the Partnership has drawn $1,569,500, which
represents the total amount of the General Partner's current commitment.
 
Fees and reimbursements paid and (receivable) payable by the Partnership
(from)/to Affiliates during the quarter and six months ended June 30, 1997 were

Unless otherwise disclosed, discussions of fluctuations between 1997 and 1996
refer to both the quarters and six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996.
 
Net income increased by $1,281,700 for the six months ended June 30, 1997 when
compared to the six months ended June 30, 1996. The increase was primarily due
to the gains recorded on the sale of Carrollton Crossroads Shopping Center
("Carrollton") and 3120 Southwest Freeway Office Building ("Southwest
Freeway"). Also contributing to the increase was improved operating results at
Indian Ridge Plaza Shopping Center ("Indian Ridge") and an increase in interest
earned on the Partnership's short-term investments due to an increase in cash
available for investment. Partially offsetting the increase was the absence of
results in 1997 due to the property sales in the first two months of the year
along with diminished operating results at Park Plaza Professional Building
("Park Plaza"). Net income, exclusive of sold properties, increased by $457,600
for the six-month periods under comparison, which was the result of the
improved operating results at Indian Ridge and the increase in interest income,
partially offset by diminished operating results at Park Plaza.
 
Net income increased by $117,700 for the quarter ended June 30, 1997 when
compared to the quarter ended June 30, 1996. The increase was primarily due to
improved operating results at Indian Ridge and the increase in interest income.
The increase was partially offset by the diminished operating results at Park
Plaza and the absence of results from the Partnership's sold properties. Net
income, exclusive of sold properties, increased by $320,100 for the quarterly
periods under comparison. The reasons for the increase were the same as the six
month comparison, as previously discussed.
 
The following comparative discussion excludes the results of Carrollton and
Southwest Freeway.
 
Rental revenues increased by $118,200 or 15.4% and $168,400 or $10.5% for the
quarter and six months ended June 30, 1997 when compared to the quarter and six
months ended June 30, 1996, respectively. The increases were primarily due to
an increase in base rental income at Indian Ridge due to the increase in the
average occupancy rates, as a result of securing of a new major tenant for the
property in October 1996. Partially offsetting the increase was a decrease in
base rental income at Park Plaza due to a decline in the rates charged to new
and renewing tenants and a decrease in tenant expense reimbursements which
resulted from an estimated billing to tenants to reconcile 1996 monthly
billings, which was payable in 1997 being less than estimated.
 
Interest expense decreased by $17,400 and $15,100 for the periods under
comparison, respectively. The decreases were due to the effects of the May 31,
1997 paydown of the Partnership's obligation to the General Partner. In
accordance with the Partnership Agreement 25%, of the Sales Proceeds from
Carrollton and Southwest Freeway were used on May 31, 1997 to reduce the loan
payable to the General Partner.
 
Property operating expenses decreased by $34,300 and $37,400 for the quarter
and six months ended June 30, 1997 when compared to the quarter and six months
ended June 30, 1996, respectively. The decreases were primarily due to a
decrease in professional services at Indian Ridge which was due to the 1996
expenditures related to securing the new major tenant. Also contributing to the
decreases were lower utility costs at Indian Ridge.
 
Real estate tax expense decreased by $30,700 and $11,800 for the periods under
comparison, respectively. The decreases were primarily due to an adjustment in
1996 of Indian Ridge's estimated taxes to actual.
 
Repair and maintenance expense decreased by $8,800 for the quarter ended June
30, 1997 when compared to the quarter ended June 30, 1996. The decrease was
primarily due to a decrease in repairs made to improve the exterior appearance
of Indian Ridge.
 
Repair and maintenance expense increased by $12,400 for the six months ended
June 30, 1997 when compared to the six months ended June 30, 1996. The increase
was primarily due to an increase in repairs made to the HVAC system at Park
Plaza and in cleaning costs at Park Plaza.
 
To increase and/or maintain occupancy levels at the Partnership's properties,
the General Partner, through its Affiliated and unaffiliated asset and property
management groups, continues to take the following actions: 1) implementation
of marketing programs, including hiring of third-party leasing agents or
providing on-site leasing personnel, advertising, direct mail campaigns and
development of property brochures; 2) early renewal of existing tenants' leases
and addressing any expansion needs these tenants may have; 3) promotion of
local broker events and networking with local brokers; 4) networking with
national level retailers; 5) cold-calling other businesses and tenants in the
market area; and 6) providing rental concessions or competitively pricing
rental rates depending on market conditions.
 
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
One of the Partnership's objectives is to dispose of its properties when market
conditions allow for the achievement of the maximum possible sales price. In
the interim, the Partnership continues to
 
                                                                               6
<PAGE>
 
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)
 
manage and maintain its properties. Notwithstanding the Partnership's intention
relative to property sales, another primary objective of the Partnership is to
provide cash distributions to Partners from Partnership operations. To the
extent cumulative cash distributions exceed net income, such excess
distributions will be treated as a return of capital. Cash Flow (as defined in
the Partnership Agreement) is generally not equal to net income or cash flows
as determined by generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), since
certain items are treated differently under the Partnership Agreement than
under GAAP. Management believes that to facilitate a clear understanding of the
Partnership's operations, an analysis of Cash Flow (as defined in the
Partnership Agreement) should be examined in conjunction with an analysis of
net income or cash flows as determined by GAAP. The following table includes a
reconciliation of Cash Flow (as defined in the Partnership Agreement) to cash
flow provided by operating activities as determined by GAAP. Such amounts are
not indicative of actual distributions to Partners and should not be considered
as an alternative to the results disclosed in the Statements of Income and
Expenses and Statements of Cash Flow.

The increase in Cash Flow (as defined in the Partnership Agreement) of $27,300
for the six months ended June 30, 1997 when compared to six months ended June
30, 1996 was primarily due to the increase in operating results of Indian Ridge
and in interest income earned on the Partnership's short-term investments, as
previously discussed, exclusive of depreciation and amortization expense.
Partially offsetting the increase was the effects of the Partnership's sold
properties and the diminished operating results at Park Plaza.
 
The decrease in the Partnership's cash position for the six months ended June
30, 1997 resulted primarily from the investments in debt securities,
distributions paid to Limited Partners and expenditures for capital and tenant
improvements and leasing costs exceeding the net cash provided by operating
activities and the Proceeds from the sale of Partnership properties. Liquid
assets (including cash, cash equivalents and investments in debt securities) of
the Partnership as of June 30, 1997 were comprised of amounts held for working
capital purposes.
 
Net cash provided by operating activities decreased by $265,800 for the six
months ended June 30, 1997 when compared to the six months ended June 30, 1996.
The decrease was primarily the result of the partial absence of operations at
Carrollton and Southwest Freeway due to their sales during the first quarter of
1997. Partially offsetting the decrease was the increase in net income,
exclusive of depreciation and amortization, as previously discussed, and the
timing of receipt of rental payments at Indian Ridge.
 
Net cash (used for) provided by investing activities changed from $(3,350,200)
for the six months ended June 30, 1996 to $10,779,000 for the six months ended
June 30, 1997. The change was primarily due to the receipt of proceeds in 1997
from the sales of Southwest Freeway and Carrollton. The change was partially
offset by an increase in investments in debt securities. The increase in
investments in debt securities is a result of the extension of the maturities
of certain of the Partnership's short-term investments in an effort to maximize
the return on these amounts as they are held for working capital purposes.
These investments are of investment-grade and generally mature less than one
year from their date of purchase.
 
The Partnership maintains working capital reserves to pay for capital
expenditures and spent $65,500 for capital and tenant improvements and leasing
costs during the six months ended June 30, 1997. Approximately $150,000 is
projected to be spent during the remainder of 1997. This projected amount
relates to anticipated capital and tenant improvements and leasing costs of
approximately $85,000 at Park Plaza and $65,000 at Indian Ridge. Actual amounts
expended may vary depending on a number of factors including actual leasing
activity and other market conditions throughout the remainder of the year. The
General Partner believes these improvements and leasing costs are necessary in
order to increase and/or maintain the occupancy levels in very competitive
markets, maximize rental rates charged to new and renewing tenants and prepare
the remaining properties for eventual disposition.
 
The increase in net cash used for financing activities of $11,034,300 was
primarily due to an increase in the payment of cash distributions to Limited
Partners, which was the result of the May 31, 1997 payment of the special
distribution of Sales Proceeds.
 
On January 17, 1997, Carrollton Crossroads Associates, a joint venture in which
the Partnership owns a 50% interest, completed the sale of Carrollton. The
Partnership's share of the net proceeds from this sale amounted to
approximately $8,847,000. On May 31, 1997, in accordance with the Partnership
Agreement, 75% of the net proceeds were distributed to Limited Partners of
record as of January 17, 1997, with the remaining 25% remitted to the General
Partner to repay a portion of the loan payable to the General Partner. For
further information, see Note 3 in Notes to the Financial Statements.
 
On February 18, 1997, the joint venture in which the Partnership owns a 75%
interest completed the sale of Southwest Freeway. The Partnership's share of
the net proceeds from this sale amounted to approximately $2,460,800. On May
31, 1997, in accordance with the Partnership Agreement, 75% of the net proceeds
were distributed to Limited Partners of record as of February 18, 1997, with
the remaining 25% remitted to the General Partner to repay a portion of the
loan payable to the General Partner. For further information, see Note 3 in
Notes to the Financial Statements
 
The General Partner continues to take a conservative approach to projections of
future rental income in its determination of adequate levels of cash reserves
due to the anticipated capital and tenant improvements and leasing costs
necessary to be made at the Partnership's properties during the next several
years. For the six months ended June 30, 1997, Cash Flow (as defined in the
Partnership Agreement) retained to supplement working capital reserves amounted
to $503,800.
 
Distributions to Limited Partners for the quarter ended June 30, 1997 were
declared in the amount of $296,500, or $.50 per Unit. Cash distributions are
made 60 days after the last day of each fiscal quarter. The amount of future
distributions to Partners will ultimately be dependent upon the performance of
the Partnership's properties as well as the General Partner's determination of
the amount of cash necessary to supplement working capital reserves to meet
future liquidity requirements of the Partnership. Accordingly, there can be no
assurance as to the amounts of cash for future distributions to Partners.
