                                   PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

GENERAL

NYLIFE Realty Income Partners I, L.P. (the "Partnership") is a Delaware limited
partnership formed on November 14, 1986.  The Partnership has invested in four
joint ventures (individually, a "Joint Venture," collectively, the "Joint
Ventures") with New York Life Insurance Company, (a New York mutual life
insurance company) (the "Co-Venturer" or "New York Life"), an Affiliate of the
Partnership.  Through its interest in the Joint Ventures, the Partnership
acquired (on an unleveraged basis), operates, held for investment, and expects
to ultimately sell, income-producing commercial properties (individually, a
"Property," collectively, the "Properties").

The first two Joint Ventures were funded 60% by the Partnership and 40% by the
Co-Venturer.  The third Joint Venture was funded 47.06% by the Partnership and
52.94% by the Co-Venturer.  The last Joint Venture was originally funded 47.09%
by the Partnership and 52.91% by the Co-Venturer.  However, during 1993 the
Partnership and the Co-Venturer contributed additional capital of $459,375 and
$1,600,163, respectively to such Joint Venture resulting in a change in
ownership interests to 44.21% and 55.79%, respectively, at December 31, 1993.
Additionally, in January 1994 the Co-Venturer contributed additional capital of
$155,059 to such Joint Venture resulting in ownership interests of 43.82% and
56.18% for the Partnership and the Co-Venturer, respectively, at December 31,
1995.  (See ITEM 2. PROPERTIES).  All Joint Venture income, losses and
distributions are generally apportioned pro rata between the Partnership and
the Co-Venturer in proportion to their respective contributions to the Joint
Ventures.

The Partnership's primary investment objectives are to (i) preserve and protect
the Partnership's assets, (ii) provide quarterly distributions to partners and
(iii) provide growth of capital through appreciation of the Properties.  The
attainment of the Partnership's investment objectives depends on many factors,
including current and future economic conditions in the United States as a
whole and, in particular, in the localities in which the Properties are located
and the quality of property management provided to the Joint Ventures by local
property managers.  Accordingly, management cannot be certain that the
Partnership's investment objectives will be attained either in whole or in
part.

The General Partners of the Partnership are NYLIFE Realty Inc., a Delaware
corporation ("NYLIFE Realty") and an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of the
Co-Venturer, and CNP Realty Investments Inc. ("CNP"), a Delaware corporation
and a wholly-owned subsidiary of NYLIFE Realty (collectively, the "General
Partners").  The conduct of the Partnership's business is controlled solely by
the General Partners.  NYLIFE Realty is primarily responsible for both property-
related and Partnership administrative matters.  A General Partners' Agreement
between the General Partners (the "General Partners' Agreement") provides that
a management committee (the "Investment Committee") composed of six persons,
three from each General Partner, must approve all major decisions with respect
to the Partnership's 

                                    3 
<PAGE>

business.  The present members of the Investment Committee are Jefferson C. 
Boyce, Director of NYLIFE Realty, Frank J. Ollari, Director and Vice President 
of Investment of NYLIFE Realty, Kevin M. Micucci, Director, President and Chief
Executive Officer of NYLIFE Realty and Director, President and Chief Executive 
Officer of CNP.  (See ITEM 10.  DIRECTORS AND EXECUTIVE OFFICERS OF THE 
REGISTRANT).

The Partnership is the managing partner of each Joint Venture, responsible for
management of the day-to-day operations and implementing the joint decisions of
the Joint Venture's partners.  Each Joint Venture agreement provides that a
management committee (the "Joint Venture Management Committee") composed of two
representatives from the Partnership and two representatives from the Co-
Venturer, must approve all major decisions with respect to each Joint Venture's
business.  All such decisions require the unanimous approval of the four
representatives.  Such representatives are all employees of New York Life.

The offering of Units was terminated by the General Partners on June 30, 1989.
As of June 30, 1989, the Partnership had raised Gross Proceeds of $28,339,255
from the sale of 2,833,925.5 Units to 3,383 Limited Partners.  The Amended and
Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership (the "Partnership Agreement")
provides that the Partnership will continue until December 31, 2036, unless
sooner terminated upon the occurrence of certain events described in the
Partnership Agreement.

LIQUIDATION

Two class action lawsuits were filed against the Co-Venturer and certain other
affiliates of the General Partners in the District Court of Harris County,
Texas on January 11, 1996, styled Grimshawe v. New York Life Insurance Co., et
al. (No. 96-001188) and Shea v. New York Life Insurance Co., et al. (No. 96-
001189) alleging misconduct in connection with the original sale of investment
units in various partnerships, including violation of various federal and state
laws and regulations and claims of continuing fraudulent conduct. The
plaintiffs asked for compensatory damages for their lost original investment,
plus interest, costs (including attorneys fees), punitive damages, disgorgement
of any earnings, compensation and benefits received by the defendants as a
result of the alleged actions and other unspecified relief to which plaintiffs
might have been entitled.  These suits were amended and refiled in a
consolidated action in the United States District Court for the Southern
District of Florida (the "Court") on March 18, 1996.  In the federal action,
the plaintiffs added NYLIFE Realty as a defendant and included allegations
concerning the Partnership.  The plaintiffs purported to represent a class of
all persons (the "Class") who purchased or otherwise assumed rights and title
to interests in certain limited partnerships, including the Partnership, and
other programs created, sponsored, marketed, sold, operated or managed by the
defendants (the "Proprietary Partnerships").  The Partnership was not a
defendant in the litigation.

The defendants expressly denied any wrongdoing alleged in the complaint and
conceded no liability or wrongdoing in connection with the sale of the Units or
the structure of the Proprietary Partnerships.  Nevertheless, to reduce the
burden of protracted litigation, the defendants entered into a Stipulation of
Settlement (the "Settlement Agreement") with the plaintiffs because in their
opinion such Settlement would (i) provide substantial benefits to the Class in
a manner consistent with New York Life's position that it had previously
determined to wind up most of the Proprietary Partnerships, including the
Partnership, through orderly liquidation as the continuation of the business no
longer served the intended objectives of 

                                    4 
<PAGE>

either the owners of interests in such Proprietary Partnerships or the 
defendants and to offer the investors an enhancement to the liquidating 
distribution they would otherwise receive and (ii) provide an opportunity to 
wind up such partnerships on a schedule favorable to the Class and resolve 
the issues raised by the lawsuit.

In coordination with the proposed settlement, the General Partners solicited
the approval of the limited partners for the dissolution of the Partnership.
On July 1, 1996, the expiration date for the solicitation of such consents, the
limited partners of the Partnership approved the dissolution, and termination
of the Partnership.  NYLIFE Realty Inc., as liquidator, has commenced the
process of winding up the Partnership.

Final approval of the Settlement Agreement was given by the Court on July 3,
1996.  The Settlement Agreement became final on August 5, 1996, the date on
which the period for appeal of the Settlement Agreement expired.  Cash Payments
(comprised of a Liquidation Advance, and a Refund or Enhancement, as defined in
the Settlement Agreement) were made by NYLIFE Realty to settling limited
partners in August, September and November of 1996.  Each settling limited
partner granted a security interest in favor of NYLIFE Realty in his units of
limited partnership interest and liquidating distributions up to the amount of
the settling limited partner's Liquidation Advance to secure repayment thereof.
Accordingly, liquidating distributions for settling limited partners will be
first applied to repay the Liquidation Advance and any remaining liquidating
distributions will be made to the partners.  However, upon the sale of the
Partnership's remaining assets, payment of the Partnership's liabilities and
provision for contingent liabilities, the Partnership does not expect to have
cash sufficient to repay the entire Liquidation Advance.  In such a
circumstance, partners would not receive any additional distributions from the
Partnership nor would any partner have an obligation to repay any unpaid
Liquidation Advance.

Under the terms of the Settlement Agreement, each settling limited partner
received a complete return of his original investment, less distributions
received prior to the final Settlement date.  In exchange for the Settlement
benefits the settling limited partners released any and all claims that the
settling limited partner may have had against the defendants in connection with
any and all causes of action related to the Proprietary Partnerships and all
activities related to the dissolution and liquidation of such partnerships.

As of December 31, 1996, no liquidating distributions have been made to the
partners.

As part of the liquidation process, the Partnership has sold its indirect
interest in the Property  known as Eden Woods Business Center as discussed in
ITEM 2. PROPERTIES.  In addition, the Partnership has entered into an Agreement
of Sale and Purchase dated February 28, 1997 for the sale of the Cornell Plaza
Office Building.  Subsequent to the sale of the Cornell Plaza Office Building,
the Partnership's remaining asset will be its joint venture interest in
NewMarket Shopping Center.  The Partnership is currently actively seeking to
sell such remaining property.  SEE ITEM 2. PROPERTIES for further information
regarding the property sales and operations.

EMPLOYEES

Neither the Partnership nor the Joint Ventures themselves have any employees.

                                    5 
<PAGE>

Since January 1, 1990, property management services have been provided to the
Joint Ventures by Greystone Realty Corporation ("Greystone"), an Affiliate of
the Partnership and New York Life.  Prior to that date, Greystone had been
managing the Co-Venturer's interest in each of the Joint Ventures.  Greystone
has contracted with local property and leasing agents to provide property
management services at each of the Properties.  Local property and leasing
agents are paid a property management fee by the Joint Ventures equal to a
percentage of  gross revenues received by them from the Properties.  In
addition, Greystone is paid a management fee by the Joint Ventures for their
management services in accordance with the terms of the Partnership Agreement.

During the years ended December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994, certain employees of
New York Life and its Affiliates performed accounting, secretarial and
administrative services for the Partnership.  A portion of the costs of such
services allocable to the Partnership were reimbursed by the Partnership in
accordance with the Partnership Agreement.

COMPETITION

The real estate business is highly competitive, and the Partnership may
experience competition for potential buyers as it is now actively seeking to
sell the remaining joint venture Property.  See ITEM 2. PROPERTIES for a
further discussion of each of the Properties and conditions affecting their
performance.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES

GENERAL

The Partnership originally invested in four Joint Ventures in connection with
the acquisition of four Properties, namely, Cornell Plaza Office Building,
Parklane Office Building, Eden Woods Business Center and NewMarket Shopping
Center.  The Properties are described below.

DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTIES

CORNELL PLAZA OFFICE BUILDING

On March 30, 1988, the Partnership, through a Joint Venture ("Joint Venture A")
with the Co-Venturer, acquired an interest in an office building known as
Cornell Plaza Office Building ("Cornell") located in Blue Ash, Ohio.  Joint
Venture A acquired the fee simple title for a purchase price of $9,550,000, of
which $5,730,000 represented the Partnership's 60% share of the purchase price,
$34,964 represented the Partnership's 60% share of the Acquisition Expenses and
$136,512 represents the Partnership's 100% share of Acquisition Fees.  No
mortgage or other indebtedness was incurred in connection with the acquisition
of Cornell.

Cornell is a five-story office building containing 97,790 gross sq. ft. and
85,625 net rentable sq. ft.  The building was completed in 1985 and is situated
on a 5.6 acre site which provides parking for 302 cars.

The Blue Ash submarket is one of the strongest markets in the Cincinnati Area.
Cornell Plaza is a class "A" building of superior quality with a stable
occupancy rate and income stream.

                                    6 
<PAGE>

The Cincinnati office market experienced significant improvement over 1996.
Overall, occupancy averages approximately 85%, substantially at the same levels
as year-end 1995.  However, vacancies in the Blue Ash submarket, where Cornell
is located, have declined from 14% at year-end 1995 to approximately 4% at year-
end 1996.  Rental rates remained relatively flat during 1996 compared to 1995
as competition for new tenants is strong.

Activity included the opening of the 220,000 sq. ft. Ohio National Life
Building which included 80,000 sq. ft. of pre-leased speculative space.  Ohio
National Life will occupy the remaining portion of the building.  Also, Cincom
Systems consolidated their operations in four locations into Executive Center
II in Springdale.

The Greater Cincinnati Chamber of Commerce predicts job growth in 1997 of just
1.6% as compared to 1996's rate of 1.9%.  Commercial construction is expected
to be approximately 13.5 million sq. ft. versus 12 million in 1996.  The
economy is expected to continue a steady pace of growth complemented by new
business moving to the area as well as the expansion of existing companies.

The following table highlights pertinent data relating to Cornell for the years
1996, 1995 and 1994:

                                   1996           1995           1994

Annual real estate taxes         $119,020       $119,020       $130,355   

Generally, leases contain provisions requiring tenants to pay their pro-rata
share of real estate taxes and operating expenses in addition to their annual
base rent.

Pursuant to an Agreement of Sale and Purchase dated February 28, 1997, Joint
Venture A is expected to sell Cornell, along with the underlying land and
related improvements, to ERI Cornell, Inc., an unrelated third party, for an
amount in excess of its carrying amount.  The transaction is currently expected
to close on or before April 3, 1997 although the closing may be extended by the
agreement of the parties.

PARKLANE OFFICE BUILDING

On June 29, 1988, the Partnership, through its second Joint Venture ("Joint 
Venture B") with the Co-Venturer, acquired an interest in an office building 
known as Parklane Office Building ("Parklane") located in Brentwood, Tennessee, 
a suburb 10 miles south of Nashville's central business district. Joint Venture 
B acquired the fee title to Parklane for a purchase price of $9,600,000, of 
which $5,760,000 represented the Partnership's 60% share of the purchase price,
$26,040 represented the Partnership's 60% share of Acquisition Expenses and 
$137,129 represented the Partnership's 100% share of Acquisition Fees.  No 
mortgage or other indebtedness was incurred in connection with the purchase of 
Parklane.

On December 6, 1994, pursuant to a Purchase and Sale Agreement dated October 7,
1994, Joint Venture B sold Parklane, along with the underlying land and related
improvements, to 

                                      7 
<PAGE>

Principal Mutual Life Insurance Company for $5,600,000 which was approximately 
127% of its then appraised value.  Subsequent to the sale, the cash reserve 
balance of $1,519,570 along with net sales proceeds of $5,271,847 was 
distributed to the Co-Venturers.  In accordance with the provisions of the 
Partnership Agreement, the Partnership's share of such net sales proceeds was 
distributed entirely to the Limited Partners.  Joint Venture B was liquidated 
in 1995.

EDEN WOODS BUSINESS CENTER

On August 23, 1988, the Partnership, through a Joint Venture ("Joint Venture
C") with the Co-Venturer and NYLIFE Realty, acquired three buildings known as
Eden Woods Business Center ("Eden Woods") located in Eden Prairie, Minnesota, a
suburb located eight miles southwest of Minneapolis' Central Business District.
Joint Venture C acquired the fee title to Eden Woods for a purchase price of
$10,900,000 and paid Acquisition Fees of $46,213 and Acquisition Expenses of
$53,570, resulting in a total cash investment of $10,999,783.  No mortgage or
other indebtedness was incurred by Joint Venture C in connection with the
purchase of Eden Woods.

On December 30, 1996, pursuant to a Purchase and Sale Agreement dated November
26, 1996, Joint Venture C sold Eden Woods, along with the underlying land and
related improvements, to Principal Mutual Life Insurance Company for $9,700,000
which was approximately 105% of its appraised value of $9,200,000.

NEWMARKET SHOPPING CENTER

On December 22, 1988, the Partnership, through a Joint Venture ("Joint Venture
D") with the Co-Venturer, acquired a one-story retail shopping center known as
NewMarket Shopping Center ("NewMarket") located in northwestern Columbus,
Franklin County, Ohio.  Joint Venture D acquired the fee title to NewMarket for
a purchase price of $15,500,000 and paid Acquisition Expenses of $75,888 in
connection with the purchase, resulting in a total cash investment of
$15,575,888.  During 1993, substantial structural improvements were made at
NewMarket to accommodate leases with CompUSA to anchor the south end of the
center and Media Play to anchor the north end.  Such improvements were funded
by cash flow from operations as well as capital contributions by the
Partnership and the Co-Venturer during 1994 and 1995.  Since the Partnership
was unable to fund a portion of its required contribution, the Co-Venturer
increased its contribution by the amount of the Partnership's shortfall in
exchange for an increased ownership interest in the Joint Venture.  During
1994, the Co-Venturer contributed $155,059 of additional capital and during
1993, the Partnership and Co-Venturer contributed $459,375 and $1,600,163 of
additional capital, respectively.

NewMarket is adjacent to the interchange of Sawmill Road and Interstate 270.
Sawmill Road is a heavily traveled retail corridor serving a relatively
affluent area. It contains 195,522 gross sq. ft. and 172,833 net rentable sq.
ft. It is an enclosed community shopping center, constructed of steel and
masonry with decorative split concrete block and metal banding around the
exterior walls.

The Greater Columbus region is experiencing a retail construction boom.  In
1996, over 5 million square feet of space was under construction or in the
approval process.  This activity will increase supply by nearly 20% which will
have a negative impact on rental rates.  1996 year-end vacancy rates are
estimated at just under 8%, down from the year-end 1995 rate of 

                                      8 
<PAGE>

8.5%.  Most of the recent project completions came in the form of "big box" 
space which has attracted tenants such as Marshall Fields, Super K-Mart, 
Helig-Meyers, Pep Boys, Eddie Bauer and Cub Foods.  However, the area has 
also seen the departure of many retailers including Central Hardware, 
Herman's Sporting Goods and White Furniture, amongst others.

Average rental rates market wide are approximately $9.61 per sq. ft. which are
slightly higher than the 1995 average of $9.36.

Retailers continue to be attracted to Columbus' strong demographics which
include a highly educated workforce with good household income and a growing
population base.

The following table highlights pertinent data relating to NewMarket for the

ITEM 5. MARKET FOR REGISTRANT'S UNITS AND RELATED UNITHOLDER MATTERS

Units of the Registrant are not listed or quoted for trading on an established
securities exchange, and the Registrant does not maintain a redemption plan or
"matching service" to assist investors in disposing Units.  As of December 31,
1996, there were 2,833,925.5 Units outstanding.

The number of investors holding Units as of December 31, 1996 was 3,057.

The Partnership Agreement provides for quarterly payments of Distributable Cash
From Operations, if available.  The Partnership made its initial distributions
to partners subsequent to the quarter ended September 30, 1987, and as of
December 31, 1996, cumulative distributions of $9,869,429 had been paid to the
Limited Partners.  The General Partners had previously suspended distributions
to investors from the February 15, 1993 through the August 15, 1994
distribution dates.  The most recent distribution of Distributable Cash From
Operations was made on May 15, 1996.  Distributions of cash proceeds from the
sale of joint venture Properties were made, however, during 1994 and the first
quarter of 1997.

ITEM 6. SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA

The following table sets forth the selected financial information regarding the
Partnership's financial position and operating results for the five years ended
December 31, 1996.  This information should be read in conjunction with
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS and THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA, which are
included in ITEMS 7 AND 8 of this report, respectively.  Effective June 30,
1996, the Partnership changed its basis of accounting from the historical cost
basis to the liquidation basis.  The Partnership's results of operations are
presented on a combined basis for the 1996 periods prior to and subsequent to
the adoption of the liquidation basis of accounting.  Therefore, the operations
and balance sheet data presented by period are not comparable.

The financial position and operating results for the year ended December 31,
1996 are presented on the liquidation basis of accounting and the financial
position and operating results for the four years ended December 31, 1995 are
presented on the historical cost basis of accounting.

(1) The decrease in Total Assets resulted from write-downs of joint venture
Properties and the sale of Eden Woods during 1996.  See ITEM 2. PROPERTIES.

(2) The differences between GAAP and Tax basis net income are primarily the
result of different methods of depreciation and rental income recognition for
financial reporting and tax reporting purposes.

(3) The 1992 Equity in loss from Joint Ventures resulted from a write-down of
the carrying amounts of Parklane and NewMarket to their then current appraised
values.  See ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

(4) The 1996 Equity in loss from Joint Ventures resulted from a write-down of
the carrying amounts of the joint venture properties to their net realizable
values less costs to sell and the write-off of other related costs.  See ITEM

OPERATIONS.

(5) In 1991 the General Partners decided to suspend distributions from the
February 15, 1993 through the August 15, 1994 distribution dates as part of a
long-term strategy to preserve the assets and maximize performance of the
portfolio.  See ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND 
        RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

LIQUIDATION

Two class action lawsuits were filed against the Co-Venturer and certain other
affiliates of the General Partners in the District Court of Harris County,
Texas on January 11, 1996, styled Grimshawe v. New York Life Insurance Co., et
al. (No. 96-001188) and Shea v. New York Life Insurance Co., et al. (No. 96-
001189) alleging misconduct in connection with the original sale of investment
units in various partnerships, including violation of various federal and state
laws and regulations and claims of continuing fraudulent conduct. The
plaintiffs asked for compensatory damages for their lost original investment,
plus interest, costs (including attorneys fees), punitive damages, disgorgement
of any earnings, compensation and benefits received by the defendants as a
result of the alleged actions and other unspecified relief to which plaintiffs
might have been entitled.  These suits were amended and refiled in a
consolidated action in the United States District Court for the Southern
District of Florida (the "Court") on March 18, 1996.  In the federal action,
the plaintiffs added NYLIFE Realty as a defendant and included allegations
concerning the Partnership.  The plaintiffs purported to represent a class of
all persons (the "Class") who purchased or otherwise assumed rights and title
to interests in certain limited partnerships, including the Partnership, and
other programs created, sponsored, marketed, sold, operated or managed by the
defendants (the "Proprietary Partnerships").  The Partnership was not a
defendant in the litigation.

The defendants expressly denied any wrongdoing alleged in the complaint and
conceded no liability or wrongdoing in connection with the sale of the Units or
the structure of the Proprietary Partnerships.  Nevertheless, to reduce the
burden of protracted litigation, the defendants entered into a Stipulation of
Settlement (the "Settlement Agreement") with the plaintiffs because in their
opinion such Settlement would (i) provide substantial benefits to the Class in
a manner consistent with New York Life's position that it had previously
determined to wind up most of the Proprietary Partnerships, including the
Partnership, through orderly liquidation as the continuation of the business no
longer serves the intended objectives of either the owners of interests in such
Proprietary Partnerships or the defendants and to offer the investors an
enhancement to the liquidating distribution they would otherwise receive and
(ii) provide an opportunity to wind up such partnerships on a schedule
favorable to the Class and resolve the issues raised by the lawsuit.

In coordination with the proposed settlement, the General Partners solicited
the approval of the limited partners for the dissolution of the Partnership.
On July 1, 1996, the expiration date for the solicitation of such consents, the
limited partners of the Partnership approved the dissolution, and termination
of the Partnership.  NYLIFE Realty Inc., as liquidator, has commenced the
process of winding up the Partnership.

Final approval of the Settlement Agreement was given by the Court on July 3,
1996.  The Settlement Agreement became final on August 5, 1996, the date on
which the period for appeal of the Settlement Agreement expired.  Cash Payments
(comprised of a Liquidation Advance and an Enhancement, as defined in the
Settlement Agreement) were made by NYLIFE Realty to settling limited partners
in August, September and November of 1996.  Each settling limited partner
granted a security interest in favor of NYLIFE Realty in his units 

                                     12 
<PAGE>

of limited partnership interest and liquidating distributions up to the amount 
of the settling limited partner's Liquidation Advance to secure repayment 
thereof. Accordingly, liquidating distributions for settling limited partners 
will be first applied to repay the Liquidation Advance and any remaining 
liquidating distributions will be made to the partners.

Under the terms of the Settlement Agreement, each settling limited partner
received a complete return of his original investment, less distributions
received prior to the final Settlement date.  In exchange for the Settlement
benefits the settling limited partners released any and all claims that the
settling limited partner may have had against the defendants in connection with
any and all causes of action related to the Proprietary Partnerships and all
activities related to the dissolution and liquidation of such partnerships.

As of December 31, 1996, no liquidating distributions have been made to the
partners.

As part of the liquidation process, the Partnership has sold its indirect
interest in the Property known as Eden Woods Business Center as discussed in
ITEM 2. PROPERTIES.  In addition, the Partnership has entered into an Agreement
of Sale and Purchase dated February 28, 1997 for the sale of the Cornell Plaza
Office Building.  Subsequent to the sale of the Cornell Plaza Office Building,
the Partnership's remaining asset will be its joint venture interest in
NewMarket Shopping Center.  The Partnership is currently actively seeking to
sell such remaining property.  SEE ITEM 2. PROPERTIES for further information
regarding the property sales and operations.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES - 1996

The Partnership's cash balance of $894,126 at December 31,1996 includes
$215,681 to pay accrued liabilities, and cash generated from operations of the
Joint Ventures to fund obligations of the Joint Ventures or to be distributed
to the Partnership.  On January 8, 1997, the Partnership received approximately
$4.3 million from Joint Venture C which represented the Partnership's share of
the net sale proceeds of Eden Woods.

During the process of winding up and liquidating the Joint Ventures and the
Partnership, the Partnership will no longer pay any distributions to the
partners.  Pursuant to the terms of the Settlement Agreement, liquidating
distributions paid to the settling limited partners will first be applied to
repay the $12.5 million Liquidation Advance and any remaining liquidating
distributions will be made to partners.  However, upon the sale of the
Partnership's remaining assets, payment of the Partnership's liabilities and
provision for contingent liabilities, the Partnership does not expect to have
cash sufficient to repay the entire Liquidation Advance.  In such a
circumstance, partners would not receive any additional distributions from the
Partnership nor would any partner have an obligation to repay any unpaid
Liquidation Advance.

The Partnership expects sufficient cash flow to be generated from its Joint
Venture investments to meet its current and future operating requirements.
However, if the Partnership does not have sufficient funds to meet its future
operating requirements, the General Partners, at their sole discretion, may
borrow money on behalf of the Partnership from unaffiliated third parties
subject to the terms of the Partnership Agreement

The most recent distribution to investors was made on May 15, 1996.

                                     13 
<PAGE>

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - 1996

As a result of the limited partners' approval of the dissolution of the
Partnership, the Partnership has changed its basis of accounting for the period
subsequent to June 30, 1996, from the historical cost basis to the liquidation
basis. Under the liquidation basis of accounting, the Partnerships' assets at
December 31, 1996 are reported at their estimated net realizable values, and
the Partnership's liabilities are presented at estimated settlement amounts.
The net effect of the revaluation of the Partnership's assets and liabilities
due to the adoption of the liquidation basis of accounting was a downward
adjustment in the second quarter of 1996 of $2,024,587, to the Partnership's
investments in real estate joint ventures.  This amount is reported on the
statement of operations for the six months ended June 30, 1996 and included in
equity in loss from Joint Venture operations.

Under the liquidation basis of accounting, the Partnership's results of
operations for the six months ended December 31, 1996 are presented as a
component of the statement of changes in net assets.

Occupancy at Cornell and NewMarket was 88% and 86%, respectively, as of
December 31, 1996, as compared to 97% and 93%, respectively, as of Dectember
31, 1995.

INVESTMENT IN JOINT VENTURES - 1996

NEWMARKET SHOPPING CENTER

Net operating income at New Market decreased by approximately $36,000 for the
year ended December 31, 1996 as compared to the prior year resulting primarily
from lower rental income due to decreased occupancy.  The occupancy rate
decreased from 93% at December 31, 1995 to 86% at December 31, 1996.

During 1996, three tenants, We're For Kids, Family Theatre Playhouse, and Shoe
Sensation, which had occupied approximately 21,000 sq. ft., in the aggregate,
did not renew their leases.

Leases aggregating approximately 8,300 sq. ft., or 5% of NewMarket's net
rentable area, are due to expire during 1997.  Included in such amount are
Backstage Studio and Finish Line Inc. which occupy 1,687 sq. ft. and 6,604 sq.
ft., respectively.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES - 1995

The Partnership's cash and cash equivalents balance at December 31, 1995 of
$688,977 includes $94,058 to pay accrued liabilities and cash generated from
operations of the Joint Ventures and distributed to the Partnership.

The Partnership derived approximately 80% of its income from its equity
interests in the Joint Ventures.  Accordingly, the Partnership's share of cash
flow from the Joint Ventures depends on the performance of the Properties.
Cash flow at the Joint Venture was used to fund tenant improvements, leasing
commissions, and capital improvements, if any.  Any remaining cash flow was
then distributed to the Joint Ventures.  The Partnership also received interest
income on  the balance in its restricted cash account and short-term
investments.

                                     14 
<PAGE>

The Partnership's only operating costs were general and administrative expenses
which included audit and tax return preparation fees, printing and postage
costs for quarterly and annual reports, quarterly investor statement
processing, investor K-1 processing, and reimbursements to the General Partners
for reimbursable expenses incurred in accordance with the Partnership
Agreement.  General and administrative expenses totaled $155,770 in 1995.

The Co-Venturers had determined that it was necessary to replace the HVAC
system at Cornell due to its insufficient capacity and outdated technology.
Accordingly, Cornell's cash flow from operations was set aside to fund such
improvement.  The new system was installed and operational as of April 1995.
The total cost of the new system was approximately $323,000, all of which was
funded entirely from Cornell's cash flow from operations.  Accordingly, Cornell
subsequently resumed distributions to Co-Venturers.

As discussed in ITEM 2. PROPERTIES, Lawrence Jewelry vacated Eden Woods on
January 31, 1996.  Accordingly, cash flow from operations at Eden Woods is
being set aside to fund improvements and leasing commissions expected to be
incurred in conjunction with leasing this space.  Eden Woods will resume
distributions to Co-Venturers after this space is leased and all applicable
costs are funded.

The Properties generated adequate cash flow to fund their own operations.
During the year ended December 31, 1995, Cornell, Eden Woods, and NewMarket
distributed approximately $281,000, 164,000, and 352,000 to the Partnership,
respectively.  Additionally, the Partnership received approximately $3,301,000
of its share of Parklane's net sales proceeds and cash reserve during the
quarter ended March 31, 1995.  As previously discussed, Parklane was sold on
December 6, 1994.

The Partnership has evaluated its cash needs and expects to make its next semi-
annual distribution to investors as planned on May 15, 1996.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

1995 COMPARED TO 1994

The Partnership's net income for the year ended December 31, 1995 decreased by
approximately $460,000 as compared to the prior year primarily as a result of a
decrease in equity in income from Joint Venture operations.  Included in equity
in income from Joint Venture operations for the year ended December 31, 1994
was approximately $361,000 of equity in income from Parklane, including
approximately $177,000 representing the Partnership's share of the gain on the
sale of Parklane on December 6, 1994.  For a more detailed discussion of the
operations of each Property, see INVESTMENTS IN JOINT VENTURES - 1995 below.

Partially offsetting such decrease in Equity in income from Joint Venture
operations was an increase in interest income of approximately $48,000 for the
year ended December 31, 1995 as compared to the prior year primarily due to
interest earned on the Partnership's share of the Parklane cash reserve account
and net sales proceeds from January 1, 1995 to February 15, 1995, when such
cash was distributed to investors.

In management's opinion, except for the proposed dissolution of the Partnership
as more fully discussed in Note 11 of the Notes to Financial Statements, when
adopted on January 1, 1996, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121
"Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Assets to be
Disposed of" will not have a material adverse effect on the Partnership's
financial position or results of operations.  In the event of disposition, the
Partnership would record an adjustment to state its investments in real estate
joint ventures at their then fair market value.  Subsequent increases and
decreases in fair market value would be recorded currently in earnings under
the liquidation method of accounting.

The effects of inflation on the Partnership are immaterial.

CORNELL PLAZA OFFICE BUILDING

Net operating income at Cornell decreased by approximately $13,000, or 2%, for
the year ended December 31, 1995 as compared to the prior year.  Occupancy was
98% as of December 31, 1995.  Occupancy as of December 31, 1994 was also 98%.
Interest income at Cornell increased by approximately $5,000 for the year ended
December 31, 1995 as compared to the prior year primarily due to interest
earned on the funds set aside for the new HVAC system described below.
Depreciation and amortization increased by approximately $96,000 for the year
ended December 31, 1995 as compared to the prior year primarily due to
depreciation charges related to such HVAC system.

During 1995 one tenant, USA Mobile Communications, expanded by 3,119 sq. ft.
This tenant executed a five year lease at $10.75 per sq. ft. the first three
years and $11.50 thereafter.

Three tenants vacated the premises during 1995, however the USA Mobile
expansion absorbed most of such vacated space.  Galbreath, Cornell's managing
and leasing agent, and Orion International vacated the space which USA Mobile
leased.  Additionally, Talent Tree did not renew its lease.  Computer
Associates will also be vacating its 9,000 sq. ft. space before its lease
expires in March 1997.  This tenant will continue to make all payments in
accordance with its lease.  Additionally, Chrysler, a current Cornell tenant,
has expressed interest in expanding into the Computer Associates space.

A new HVAC system was installed at Cornell due to the insufficient capacity and
outdated technology of the old system.  Cornell's cash flow from operations had
been set aside to fund such improvement.  The new system was installed and
operational as of April 1995.  The total cost of the new system was
approximately $323,000, all of which was funded entirely from Cornell's cash
flow from operations.  Accordingly, Cornell resumed distributions to Co-
Venturers.

EDEN WOODS BUSINESS CENTER

Net operating income at Eden Woods decreased by approximately $138,000 for the
year ended December 31, 1995 as compared to the prior year.  Such decrease is
primarily due to revenues recognized by the Property in 1994 representing the
Sanborn early lease termination settlement.  Eden Woods' occupancy increased
from 98% at December 31, 1994 to 99% at December 31, 1995.

                                     16 
<PAGE>

Approximately 35,000 additional sq. ft. was leased at Eden Woods during 1995.
Three new tenants were added during the year.  Trisen Systems Inc. executed a 5
year lease for 10,132 sq. ft. vacated by Micro-Net in January, 1995 with a base
rent of $4.18 the first year and $5.66, $6.31, $6.94, and $8.45 the second
through fifth years, respectively.  Office Products of Minnesota Inc. executed
a 5 year lease for 20,086 sq. ft., formerly occupied by Sanborn, with a base
rent of $7.06 the first three years and $7.42 thereafter.  Wilson Learning
Corp. signed a three year lease for 5,186 sq. ft., vacated by Trimar in
January, 1995, with a base rent of $7.05.

In addition to the new leases discussed above, one tenant, Netstar, expanded by
3,043 sq. ft.

Lawrence Jewelry did not renew its lease for 42,500 sq. ft., which expired on
December 31, 1995, but insteadextended its lease for one month and vacated on
January 31, 1996.  One current tenant has agreed to expand into approximately
half of the Lawrence Jewelry space.

NEWMARKET SHOPPING CENTER

Net operating income at New Market increased by approximately $86,000 for the
year ended December 31, 1995 as compared to the prior year partially as a
result of a property tax refund of approximately $52,000 received during 1995
resulting from a successful certorari of 1994's tax assessment.  Also
contributing to the increase in net operating income for 1995 is a decrease in
repairs and maintenance expense of approximately $35,000 as compared to 1994.
Minor parking lot and electrical repairs performed during 1994 comprise most of
such difference.  The occupancy rate decreased from 96% at December 31, 1994 to
93% at December 31, 1995.

During 1995 two tenants did not renew their leases.  Elbee Shoes vacated its
4,813 sq. ft. space.  Additionally, Southwest Designs informed Management of
its intention to vacate the mall by January 31, 1996.  The adjacent tenant, 
S & K Brands, which currently leases 4,030 sq. ft., intends to expand into such
vacated space.

As previously reported, in 1994 Famous Footwear expanded its space and extended
its lease.  Their renovated space opened for business in June 1995.

Leases aggregating approximately 23,000 sq. ft., or 13% of NewMarket's net
rentable area, are due to expire during 1996.  Included in such amount are
three month-to-month tenants: We're For Kids, Family Theatre Playhouse, and
Shoe Sensation, currently occupying 6,998 sq. ft., 8,000 sq. ft. and 6,100 sq.
ft., respectively.

Management plans for 1996 included retention of tenants whose leases expire in
1996, including the month-to-month tenants discussed above, and attracting one
or two new shops that may act as "mini-anchors."

1994 COMPARED TO 1993

The increase in the Partnership's net income for the year ended December 31,
1994 from the year ended December 31, 1993 was primarily a result of an
increase in equity in income from Joint Venture operations.  Net operating
income for each of the Joint Ventures increased by an aggregate 34% for the
year ended December 31, 1994 over the corresponding period in 1993.  

                                     17 
<PAGE>

See INVESTMENTS IN JOINT VENTURES - 1994  below for a more detailed discussion
of the operations of each Property.  In addition, general and administrative 
expenses decreased approximately $7,000 for the year ended December 31, 1994 as 
compared to the corresponding period in 1993, resulting from a reduction in 
printing and postage costs for the year ended December 31, 1994 as well as an 
over accrual of professional fees of approximately $18,000 for the year ended 
December 31, 1993.  The Partnership had accrued for certain professional fees in
1993 that were subsequently paid for by the Joint Ventues.  Accordingly, the 
Partnership reversed the accrual for those expenses in 1994.

The effects of inflation on the Partnership were immaterial.

INVESTMENTS IN JOINT VENTURES - 1994

CORNELL PLAZA OFFICE BUILDING

Net operating income at Cornell increased by approximately $170,000 for the
year ended December 31, 1994 as compared to the year ended December 31, 1993.
Occupancy increased from 92% at December 31, 1993 to 98% at December 31, 1994.
Additionally, the Partnership received a real estate tax refund of
approximately $84,000 resulting from a successful appeal of the 1991 and 1992
tax assessments.

During 1994, an additional 5,458 sq. ft. of space was leased at Cornell.  Two
new tenants were added, while seven existing tenants expanded.  JBA
International and the Galbreath Company executed new leases aggregating 2,614
sq. ft.  JBA International leased 1,614 sq. ft. for three years at $10.00 per
sq. ft.  Galbreath executed a month-to-month lease for 1,000 sq. ft. at $5.00
per sq. ft.  Galbreath is Cornell's  managing and leasing agent and will likely
vacate their space to make way for upcoming expansions in 1995.  Expansions
took place during 1994 for Cincinnati Asset Management, Spencer and Spencer,
Citizens Mortgage, USA Mobile Communications, Inacomp, Zaring Homes and  Eaton
ranging from 389 sq. ft. to 1,603 sq. ft. with average rental rates ranging
from $9.00 per sq. ft. to $12.95 per sq. ft.  In addition, Hitachi renewed its
lease for 5,891 sq. ft. for four years at an average rental rate of $9.75 per
sq. ft.

As expected, Phoenix Mutual Insurance ("Phoenix Mutual") vacated 3,261 sq. ft.
during 1994 as a result of the merger between Phoenix Mutual and Home Life
Insurance.

Besides the Galbreath month-to-month tenancy, the only lease expiring during
1995 was Talent Tree's for 1,325 sq. ft.

As of December 31, 1994, the property was 98% occupied, and management was
carefully evaluating any expansion requests in order to achieve maximum rents.

As discussed above, a new HVAC system was installed at Cornell during 1995 due
to the insufficient capacity and outdated technology of the old system. As of
December 31, 1994, cash in the amount of $149,956 had been set aside for such
expenditure.

PARKLANE OFFICE BUILDING

On December 6, 1994, pursuant to a Purchase and Sale Agreement dated October 7,
1994, Joint Venture B sold Parklane, along with the underlying land and related
improvements to 

                                     18 
<PAGE>

Principal Mutual Life Insurance Company for $5,600,000 which represents 
approximately 127% of its appraised value of $4,400,000 as of November 30, 
1993.  It was determined that under current market conditions and considering 
the departure of South Central Bell, whose 69,302 sq. ft. occupancy comprises 
approximately 64% of Parklane's net rentable space, the sale of Parklane 
would provide more value than utilizing the cash reserve to re-tenant the 
building.  At the time of the sale the cash reserve balance was $1,519,570. 
The Partnership distributed to investors its share of the net proceeds from 
the sale, along with its share of the cash reserve, on February 15, 1995.

For the year ended December 31, 1994, Parklane had a decrease in net operating
income of approximately $48,000 over the corresponding period in 1993 due to
the reduction in rental income as a result of the sale of Parklane on December
6, 1994.  The Joint Venture recognized a gain on the sale of Parklane of
$294,687, based on the carrying value of the land, the building and the related
improvements.

In addition, Parklane had an increase in interest income of approximately
$20,000 for the year ended December 31, 1994 as compared to the corresponding
period in 1993, due to the growth of the cash reserve account throughout 1994.
The cash reserve balance was $1,143,225 at December 31, 1993 and $1,519,570 at
December 6, 1994, the date of the sale of Parklane described above.

EDEN WOODS BUSINESS CENTER

Net operating income at Eden Woods increased by approximately $249,000 for the
year ended December 31, 1994 as compared to the year ended December 31, 1993.
Eden Woods' occupancy increased from 92% at December 31, 1993 to 98% at
December 31, 1994.  Additionally, a tax reassessment of Eden Woods resulted in
a reduction of real estate taxes of approximately $85,000 for the year ended
December 31, 1994 as compared to the year ended December 31, 1993.

Approximately 11,000 additional sq. ft. was leased at Eden Woods during 1994.
Five new tenants were added during the year.  Proline Audio executed a five
year lease for 4,103 sq. ft. at an average rental rate of $5.90 per sq. ft.  A
five year lease was executed with Heidelberg USA for 5,441 sq. ft. at an

respectively, during 1994. Trimar, which occupied 5,186 sq. ft., vacated in
January 1995.  This space was subsequently leased to Wilson Learning
Corporation for three years at $7.05 per sq. ft.

NEWMARKET SHOPPING CENTER

Net operating income at New Market increased by approximately $384,000 for the
year ended December 31, 1994 as compared to the year ended December 31, 1993,
as a result of the addition of CompUSA and Media Play in November 1993.  Media
Play and CompUSA comprised approximately 47% of total occupancy of NewMarket at
December 31, 1994.  During 1994, a full year of rental revenue was recognized
from these tenants.  The occupancy rate at December 31, 1994 and 1993 remained
stable at 96%.

Depreciation and amortization expense for the year ended December 31, 1994
increased by approximately $133,000 as compared to the year ended December 31,

option in its lease and vacated its 1,843 sq. ft.  In accordance with such
termination option agreement, NewMarket received approximately $10,000 for
reimbursement of certain improvements and leasing commissions paid with regard
to the Mr. Bulky lease.

Hit or Miss renewed its lease for 3,686 sq. ft. for five years at $11.00 per
sq. ft.  Dress Barn also renewed its lease for 7,427 sq. ft. for five years at

                   REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS


To the Partners of NYLIFE Realty Income Partners, I, L.P.

We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of NYLIFE Realty Income 
Partners I, L.P. (a Delaware limited partnership) (the "Partnership") as of 
December 31, 1995 and the related statements of operations, changes in 
partners' capital and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 1995 and 
1994 and the statements of operations, changes in partners' capital and cash 
flows for the period from January 1, 1996 to June 30, 1996.  In addition, we 
have audited the statement of net assets in liquidation as of December 31, 
1996, and the related statement of changes in net assets in liquidation for 
the period from July 1, 1996 to December 31, 1996.  These financial 
statements are the responsibility of the general partner.  Our responsibility 
is to express an opinion on these financial statements 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 the general partner, as well as evaluating the 
overall financial statement presentation.  We believe that our audits provide 
a reasonable basis for our opinion.

As described in Note 2 to the financial statements, the limited partners of 
the Partnership approved a plan of liquidation on July 1, 1996, and the 
Partnership commenced liquidation shortly thereafter.  As a result, the 
Partnership has changed its basis of accounting for periods subsequent to 
June 30, 1996, from the going-concern basis to the liquidation basis.  
Accordingly, the carrying amounts of the remaining assets as of December 31, 
1996, are presented at estimated realizable values and all liabilities are 
presented at estimated settlement amounts.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in 
all material respects, the financial position of the Partnership as of 
December 31, 1995 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for 
each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 1995 and for the 
period from January 1, 1996 to June 30, 1996, its net assets in liquidation 
as of December 31, 1996, and the changes in its net assets in liquidation for 
the period from July 1, 1996 to December 31, 1996 in conformity with 
generally accepted accounting principles applied on the bases described in 
the preceding paragraph.

                       NYLIFE REALTY INCOME PARTNERS I, L.P.
                          (IN THE PROCESS OF LIQUIDATION)
                           NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                            DECEMBER 31, 1996 AND 1995

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION

NYLIFE Realty Income Partners I, L.P. (the "Partnership") is a Delaware limited
partnership formed on November 14, 1986.  Its co-general partners are NYLIFE
Realty Inc. ("Realty") and CNP Realty Investments, Inc. ("CNP"), (collectively,
the "General Partners").  The Partnership was formed to enter into a series of
joint ventures (individually, a "Joint Venture", collectively, the "Joint
Ventures") with New York Life Insurance Company (the "Co-Venturer"), an
affiliate of Realty.  Each Joint Venture acquired (on an unleveraged basis),
operates, held for investment, and has sold or is in the process of selling,
income producing, commercial properties (individually, a "Property",
collectively, the "Properties").

The Partnership is the managing partner of each Joint Venture, responsible for
management of the day-to-day operations and implementing the joint decisions of
the Joint Venture's partners.
     
Capitalized terms used in these Notes to Financial Statements, unless otherwise
defined herein, shall have the meanings set forth in Section 2 of the
Partnership Agreement.

NOTE 2 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

As discussed in further detail in Note 3, on July 1, 1996, the limited partners
of the Partnership approved the dissolution of the Partnership.  As a result,
the Partnership has changed its basis of accounting for the period subsequent to
June 30, 1996, from the historical cost basis to the liquidation basis.  Under
the liquidation basis of accounting, the Partnership's assets at December 31,
1996 are reported at their estimated net realizable values less costs to
dispose, and the Partnership's liabilities are presented at estimated settlement
amounts.

It is not presently determinable whether the amounts realizable from the
disposition of the remaining assets will differ materially from the amounts
shown in the accompanying financial statements.

The accompanying statements of operations, partners' capital and cash flows for
the 1996 reporting period were prepared using the historical cost basis of
accounting for the first six months of the year since the liquidation basis of
accounting was adopted effective June 30, 1996.  For the years ended December
31, 1995 and 1994, such statements have been presented on a historical cost
basis.  The balance sheet at December 31, 1995 is also presented on the
historical cost basis.

                                     F-10
<PAGE>

The accompanying financial statements include the accounts of the Partnership
including its investments in NYLIFE Realty Partners I - General Partnership A
(Cornell), General Partnership C (Eden Woods), and General Partnership D
(NewMarket) (collectively, the "Joint Ventures") to which the equity method of
accounting has been applied.

PRINCIPLES OF REPORTING

The accompanying financial statements are prepared under generally accepted
accounting principles using the accrual basis of accounting.  Accordingly,
revenues are recognized as earned and expenses are recognized as incurred.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles 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.

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

Highly liquid debt instruments (primarily consisting of commercial paper)
purchased with a maturity of three months or less are considered cash
equivalents and are stated at cost which approximates market value.
     
INVESTMENTS IN REAL ESTATE JOINT VENTURES

The Partnership accounts for its investments in real estate joint ventures using
the equity method of accounting.  Equity in income (loss) from Joint Venture
operations is recognized as earned and cash distributions received are accounted
for as a reduction of the related investment (see Note 5).

Investments in real estate Joint Ventures at December 31, 1996 are recorded at
net realizable value.  The fair value of Cornell was based on an appraisal
performed on December 15, 1995 less estimated costs to sell.  Joint Venture A
has entered into a letter of intent to sell Cornell for an amount in excess of
its appraised value.  See Note 12 - Subsequent Events.  Joint Venture C was sold
on December 30, 1996 to an unrelated third party for $9,200,000.  Joint Venture
D has received preliminary indications of interest in NewMarket for amounts
substantially less than its last appraisal.  The Partnership's investment in
Joint Venture D has been adjusted downward and reflects an amount consistent
with the recent third party indications of interest.  For all other assets and
liabilities presented on the liquidation basis of accounting, the General
Partner believes that historical cost approximates fair market value.  The net
effect of the revaluation of the Partnership's assets and liabilities due to the
adoption of the liquidation basis of accounting was a downward adjustment of
$2,608,667.  Such amount includes write-downs of properties and related assets
of $2,064,792, which is included in equity in loss from joint venture 
operations on the accompanying statement of operations for the six months 
ended June 30, 1996 and the statement of changes in net assets in liquidation 
for the period from July 1, 1996 to December 31, 1996, and the write-off of 
interest and acquisition fees of $543,875 which is included on the 
accompanying statement of changes in net assets in liquidation for the period 
from July 1, 1996 to December 31, 1996.

In connection with the dissolution of the Partnership, the Joint Ventures
changed their investment strategy from a long-term hold strategy to a held for
sale strategy as the Joint Ventures are actively marketing the Properties for
sale.

INCOME TAXES

No provision for income taxes has been made in the financial statements since
these taxes are the responsibility of the individual partners rather than the
Partnership.

NOTE 3 - LIQUIDATION

Two class action lawsuits were filed against the Co-Venturer and certain other
affiliates of the General Partners in the District Court of Harris County, Texas
on January 11, 1996, styled Grimshawe v. New York Life Insurance Co., et al.
(No. 96-001188) and Shea v. New York Life Insurance Co., et al. (No. 96-001189)
alleging misconduct in connection with the original sale of investment units in
various partnerships, including violation of various federal and state laws and
regulations and claims of continuing fraudulent conduct. The plaintiffs asked
for compensatory damages for their lost original investment, plus interest,
costs (including attorneys fees), punitive damages, disgorgement of any
earnings, compensation and benefits received by the defendants as a result of
the alleged actions and other unspecified relief to which plaintiffs might have
been entitled.  These suits were amended and refiled in a consolidated action in
the United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida (the
"Court") on March 18, 1996.  In the federal action, the plaintiffs added NYLIFE
Realty as a defendant and included allegations concerning the Partnership.  The
plaintiffs purported to represent a class of all persons (the "Class") who
purchased or otherwise assumed rights and title to interests in certain limited
partnerships, including the Partnership, and other programs created, sponsored,
marketed, sold, operated or managed by the defendants (the "Proprietary
Partnerships").

The defendants expressly denied any wrongdoing alleged in the complaint and
conceded no liability or wrongdoing in connection with the sale of the Units or
the structure of the Proprietary Partnerships.  Nevertheless, to reduce the
burden of protracted litigation, the defendants  entered into a Stipulation of
Settlement (the "Settlement Agreement") with the plaintiffs because in their
opinion such Settlement would (i) provide substantial benefits to the Class in a
manner consistent with New York Life Insurance Company's position that it had
previously determined to wind up most of the Proprietary Partnerships, including
the Partnership, through orderly liquidation as the continuation of the business
no longer serves the intended objectives of either the owners of interests in
such Proprietary Partnerships or the defendants and to offer the investors an
enhancement to the liquidating distribution they would otherwise receive and
(ii) provide an opportunity to wind up such partnerships on a schedule favorable
to the Class and resolve the issues raised by the lawsuit.

In coordination with the proposed settlement, the General Partners solicited the
approval of the limited partners for the dissolution of the Partnership.  On
July 1, 1996, the expiration date for the solicitation of such consents, the
limited partners of the Partnership approved the dissolution, and termination of
the Partnership.  NYLIFE Realty Inc., as liquidator, has commenced the process
of winding up the Partnership.

Final approval of the Settlement Agreement was given by the Court on July 3,
1996.  The Settlement Agreement became final on August 5, 1996, the date on
which the period for appeal of the Settlement Agreement expired.  Cash Payments
(comprised of a Liquidation Advance and either a Refund or an Enhancement, as
defined in the Settlement Agreement) 

                                     F-12
<PAGE>

were made by NYLIFE Realty to settling limited partners in August, September 
and November of 1996.  Each settling limited partner granted a security 
interest in favor of NYLIFE Realty in his units of limited partnership 
interest and liquidating distributions up to the amount of the settling 
limited partner's Liquidation Advance to secure repayment thereof.  
Accordingly, liquidating distributions for settling limited partners will be 
first applied to repay the Liquidation Advance and any remaining liquidating 
distributions will be made to the partners.  However, upon the sale of the 
Partnership's remaining assets, payment of the Partnership's liabilities and 
provision for contingent liabilities, the Partnership does not expect to have 
cash sufficient to repay the entire Liquidation Advance.  In such a 
circumstance, partners would not receive any additional distributions from the 
Partnership nor would any partner have an obligation to repay any unpaid 
Liquidation Advance.

Under the terms of the Settlement Agreement, each settling limited partner
received a complete return of his original investment, less distributions
received prior to the final Settlement date.  In exchange for the Settlement
benefits, the settling limited partners released any and all claims that the
settling limited partner may have had against the defendants in connection with
any and all causes of action related to the Proprietary Partnerships and all
activities related to the dissolution and liquidation of such partnerships.

As of December 31, 1996, no liquidating distributions have been made to the
partners.

As part of the liquidation process, the Partnership has sold its indirect
interest in the Property known as Eden Woods Business Center as discussed in
ITEM 2. PROPERTIES.  In addition, the Partnership has entered into an Agreement
of Sale and Purchase dated February 28, 1997 for the sale of the Cornell Plaza
Office Building.  Subsequent to the sale of Cornell, the Partnership's remaining
asset will be its joint venture interest in NewMarket Shopping Center.  The
Partnership is currently actively seeking to sell such remaining property.  SEE
ITEM 2. PROPERTIES for further information regarding the property sales and
operations.


NOTE 4 - THE PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT

The Partnership Agreement, dated June 10, 1987, provides that net cash from
operations, as defined, for each fiscal year will be distributed on a quarterly
basis, 99% to the Limited Partners and 1% to the General Partners until each
Limited Partner has received a 6% annual return.  Any remaining net cash from
operations will first be distributed to the General Partners until the General
Partners have received an additional 9% of the aggregate net cash from
operations distributed to all partners.  Thereafter, net cash from operations
will be distributed 99% to the Limited Partners and 1% to the General Partners.

Net proceeds from sales of Properties shall be distributed first, 100% to the
Limited Partners until each Limited Partner has received an amount equal to his
capital contribution; second, 100% to the Limited Partners until each Limited
Partner has received aggregate distributions from all sources (other than the
proceeds previously referred to) equal to a 6% cumulative return; third, after
payment of the subordinated disposition fee to the General Partners, if any,
100% to the Limited Partners until each Limited Partner has received aggregate
distributions from all sources (other than the proceeds first mentioned) equal
to a 10% cumulative return; 

                                     F-13
<PAGE>

and fourth, any remaining proceeds will be distributed 85% to the Limited 
Partners and 15% to the General Partners.

As discussed in Note 3, pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, the General
Partners solicited the approval of the limited partners for the dissolution of
the Partnership.  On July 1, 1996, the expiration date for the solicitation of
such consents, the limited partners of the Partnership approved the dissolution,
and termination of the Partnership.  NYLIFE Realty Inc., as liquidator, has
commenced the process of winding up the Partnership.  Upon approval, the
settling limited partners granted NYLIFE Realty a security interest in such
settling limited partners units and Liquidating Distributions up to the amount
of the Liquidation Advance.

for the Joint Ventures.  Greystone has been managing the Joint Ventures since

NOTE 8 - CAPITAL CONTRIBUTIONS AND ALLOCATION OF NET INCOME TO LIMITED PARTNERS

As of December 31, 1996 and 1995, the Partnership had issued 2,833,925.5 
Units in exchange for an aggregate of $28,339,255 in Limited Partner capital 
contributions.  Net income or loss and cash distributions from operations for 
any fiscal year shall be allocated 99% to the Limited Partners and 1% to the 
General Partners.

As discussed in Note 3, pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, the General 
Partners solicited the approval of the limited partners for the dissolution 
of the Partnership.  On July 1, 1996, the expiration date for the solicitation 
of such consents, the limited partners of the Partnership approved the 
dissolution, and termination of the Partnership.  NYLIFE Realty Inc., as 
liquidator, has commenced the process of winding up the Partnership.

NOTE 9 - RECONCILIATION OF NET INCOME TO TAXABLE INCOME

The following table reconciles net (loss) income for financial reporting 
purposes to taxable income for Federal income tax reporting purposes for the 
years ended 1996, 1995 and 1994.  The differences are due primarily to (i) 
differences between the tax and financial statement basis of buildings and 
improvements, (ii) the depreciating of real estate on a straight-line basis 
for financial reporting purposes while using accelerated methods for tax 
reporting purposes, (iii) recognition of rental income on a straight-line 
basis for financial reporting purposes and based upon the contractual minimum 
rental payments for tax reporting purposes and (iv) the timing of the 
recognition of gains and losses on sale of the properites.

                                          1996         1995          1994

NOTE 10 - FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 107, "Disclosures about Fair 
Value of Financial Instruments," requires disclosure of fair value information 
about financial instruments, whether or not recognized on the accompanying 
financial statements, for which it is practical to estimate that value.  
Management believes that, due to the short term nature of cash equivalents, the 
carrying amounts reported on the statement of net assets in liquidation as of 
December 31, 1996 and the balance sheet as of December 31, 1995 approximate 
their fair value.

NOTE 11 - ADOPTION OF NEWLY ISSUED PRONOUNCEMENTS

In March 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement No. 
121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived 
Assets to Be Disposed Of."  In connection with the adoption of the liquidation 
basis of accounting (Note 2), the underlying Joint Venture Properties were 
written down to their net realizable values less estimated costs to dispose and 
the Partnership recorded a downward adjustment totaling $2,064,792, which is 
included in equity in loss from joint venture operations on the accompanying 
statement of operations for the six months ended June 30, 1996 and the statement
of changes in net assets in liquidation for the period from July 1, 1996 to 
December 31, 1996.

NOTE 12 - SUBSEQUENT EVENT

CORNELL

Pursuant to an Agreement of Sale and Purchase dated February 28, 1997, Joint 
Venture A is expected to sell Cornell, along with the underlying land and 
related improvements, to ERI Cornell, Inc., an unrelated third party, for an 
amount in excess of its carrying amount.  The transaction is expected to 
close on or about April 3, 1997.

               REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS

To the Partners of NYLIFE Realty Income Partners, I, L.P.

We have audited the accompanying combined balance sheet of Cornell Plaza 
Office Building, Eden Woods Business Center and NewMarket Shopping Center 
(all Delaware joint ventures) (collectively, the "Joint Ventures") as of 
December 31, 1995 and the related combined statements of operations, changes 
in partners' capital and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 1995 and 
1994 and the combined statements of operations, changes in partners' capital 
and cash flows for the period from January 1, 1996 to June 30, 1996.  In 
addition, we have audited the combined statement of net assets in liquidation 
as of December 31, 1996, and the related combined statement of changes in net 
assets in liquidation for the period from July 1, 1996 to December 31, 1996.  
These financial statements are the responsibility of the general partner of 
NYLIFE Realty Income Partners I, L.P. (the "Partnership"). Our responsibility 
is to express an opinion on these financial statements 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 the
general partner, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our
opinion.

As described in Note 1 to the combined financial statements, the limited
partners of the Partnership approved a plan of liquidation on July 1, 1996, and
the Partnership and the Joint Ventures commenced liquidation shortly thereafter.
As a result, the Partnership and the Joint Ventures have changed their basis of
accounting for periods subsequent to June 30, 1996, from the going-concern basis
to the liquidation basis.  Accordingly, the carrying amounts of the remaining
assets as of December 31, 1996, are presented at estimated realizable values and
all liabilities are presented at estimated settlement amounts.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in 
all material respects, the combined financial position of Cornell Plaza 
Office Building, Eden Woods Business Center and NewMarket Shopping Center as 
of December 31, 1995 and the combined results of their operations and their 
cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 1995, 
and for the period from January 1, 1996 to June 30, 1996, its net assets in 
liquidation as of December 31, 1996, and the changes in its net assets in 
liquidation for the period from July 1, 1996 to December 31, 1996 in 
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles applied on the bases 
described in the preceding paragraph.

                        (IN THE PROCESS OF LIQUIDATION)
                     NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                          DECEMBER 31, 1996 AND 1995


NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

PRINCIPLES OF COMBINATION

Cornell Plaza Office Building ("Cornell"), Parklane Office Building 
("Parklane"), Eden Woods Business Center ("Eden Woods") and NewMarket 
Shopping Center ("NewMarket") (individually, a "Property", collectively, the 
"Properties") are commercial real estate properties acquired by four separate 
joint ventures (the "Joint Ventures").  As of December 31, 1996, Cornell and 
NewMarket are owned 60% and 43.82%, respectively, by NYLIFE Realty Income 
Partners I, L.P. (the "Partnership").  The remaining equity interests are 
held by New York Life Insurance Company (the "Co-Venturer") an affiliate of 
NYLIFE Realty Inc. (the "NYLIFE General Partner"), a co-general partner of 
the Partnership.  The Properties were acquired on March 30, June 29, August 
23, and December 22, 1988, respectively.  Parklane and Eden Woods were sold 
on December 6, 1994 and December 30, 1996, respectively.  See Note 4 "The 
Properties" for a further discussion of the sales.  The accompanying combined 
financial statements include the individual accounts of the Properties, as 
all four entities are affiliated under common ownership.

On July 1, 1996, the limited partners of the Partnership approved the 
dissolution of the Partnership.  As a result, each Joint Venture has changed 
its basis of accounting for the period subsequent to June 30, 1996, from the 
historical cost basis to the liquidation basis.  Under the liquidation basis 
of accounting, each Joint Venture's assets at December 31, 1996 are reported 
at their estimated net realizable values, and each Joint Venture's 
liabilities are presented at estimated settlement amounts.

It is not presently determinable whether the amounts realizable from the 
disposition of the remaining assets will differ materially from the amounts 
shown in the accompanying combined financial statements.

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

Highly liquid debt instruments (primarily consisting of commercial paper) 
purchased with a maturity of three months or less are considered cash 
equivalents and are stated at cost which approximates market value.

RENTAL INCOME

Prior to June 30, 1996, rental income was recognized on a straight-line basis 
over the related lease terms. Pursuant to the adoption of the liquidation 
basis of accounting, these amounts were written off during 1996 and rental 
income is currently recorded when due, pursuant to the tenant leases.  
Escalation rents and other charges which, pursuant to the terms of the 
related leases, have been billed or are billable to tenants, are included in 
rental income and are recorded on the accrual basis of accounting.

                                      F-29 
<PAGE>

DEFERRED LEASING COSTS

As an inducement to execute a lease, the Properties may offer incentives such 
as rent abatements.  Prior to June 30, 1996, these costs and other direct 
lease costs, such as leasing commissions, were classified as deferred leasing 
costs and were amortized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the 
related leases.  Pursuant to the adoption of the liquidation basis of 
accounting, these amounts were written off during 1996.

BUILDINGS AND IMPROVEMENTS

The buildings were carried at their original cost, including acquisition fees 
and expenses plus capital expenditures and improvements since acquisition, 
less property value write-downs, and prior to June 30, 1996, were depreciated 
over an estimated useful life of 31.5 years on a straight-line basis.  
Building improvements were recorded at cost and prior to June 30, 1996, were 
depreciated on a straight-line basis over the remaining life of the building. 
Tenant improvements were recorded at cost and prior to June 30, 1996, were 
amortized over the terms of the related leases.  Expenditures for maintenance 
and repairs which do not extend the useful life of the building are expensed.

Pursuant to the adoption of the liquidation basis of accounting, buildings, 
building improvements and tenant improvements were not depreciated subsequent 
to June 30, 1996 as the Properties were written down to their net realizable 
values less estimated costs to sell.

In connection with the dissolution of the Partnership, the Joint Ventures 
changed their investment strategy from a long-term hold strategy to a held 
for sale strategy as the Joint Ventures are actively marketing the Properties 
for sale.  The Properties are presented as property held for disposition on 
the accompanying combined statement of net assets in liquidation as of 
December 31, 1996.

INCOME TAXES

No provision for income taxes is made in the accompanying combined financial 
statements since these taxes are the responsibility of the individual 
partners rather than the Joint Ventures.

NOTE 2 - MINIMUM RENT PAYMENTS

Future minimum rental income to be received from non-cancellable operating 
leases as of December 31, 1996 for NewMarket is as follows:

                        1997                    $1,099,600 
                        1998                     1,083,341 
                        1999                       986,621 
                        2000                       889,851 
                        2001                       731,609 
                        Thereafter               3,338,008 
                                                ---------- 
                                                $8,129,030 
                                                ---------- 
                                                ---------- 

Base rent in 1996, 1995 and 1994 was $2,650,499, $2,703,146 and $3,875,542 
excluding escalations, respectively.

                                     F-30 
<PAGE>

Generally, lease terms are for 3 to 5 years and allow for increases in 
certain property operating expenses to be passed through to the tenants.

NOTE 3 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Property management fees of $138,660, $138,660 and $171,972 were paid by the
Properties to Greystone Realty Corporation ("Greystone") during 1996, 1995 and
1994, respectively.  Greystone is an affiliate of the Co-Venturer which provides
property management services to the Joint Ventures.

NOTE 4 - THE PROPERTIES

The terms of the Partnership Formation Agreement, dated June 10, 1987, provide
that all Joint Venture income, losses and distributions generally will be
apportioned pro-rata among the Partnership and the Co-Venturer in proportion to
their respective contributions (exclusive of the Partnership's contribution for
Acquisition Fees).

At December 31, 1996 and 1995, the partners' equity and ownership interests in
each of the Joint Ventures are as follows:

$250,698 and $280,761, respectively.

Pursuant to an Agreement of Sale and Purchase dated February 28, 1997, Joint 
Venture A is expected to sell Cornell, along with the underlying land and 
related improvements, to ERI Cornell, Inc., an unrelated third party, for an 
amount in excess of its carrying amount.  The transaction is expected to 
close on or about April 3, 1997 although the closing may be extended by the 
agreement of the parties.

PARKLANE

On December 6, 1994, pursuant to a Purchase and Sale Agreement dated October 
7, 1994, Joint Venture B sold Parklane, along with the underlying land and 
related improvements, to Principal Mutual Life Insurance Company for 
$5,600,000 which represented approximately 127% of its appraised value of

Joint Venture C will be liquidated during the second quarter of 1997.  At 
such time, liquidating distributions will be paid to the Partnership and the 
Co-Venturer.

NEWMARKET

During 1996, substantial tenant improvements were made at NewMarket to 
accommodate a lease with Powerhouse Gym.  Such improvements were funded by 
cash flow from operations as well as capital contributions by the Partnership 
and the Co-Venturer during 1996.  During 1996, the Partnership and the 
Co-Venturer contributed $180,556 and $231,391 of additional capital, 
respectively.

Occupancy at NewMarket decreased from 93% to 86% during 1996.

of $167,752 and $352,144, respectively.

Joint Venture D has entered into a letter of intent with an unrelated third 
party for the sale of NewMarket.

NOTE 5 - FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 107, "Disclosures about Fair 
Value of Financial Instruments," requires disclosure of fair value 
information about financial instruments, whether or not recognized on the 
accompanying financial statements, for which it is practical to estimate that 
value.  Management believes that, due to the short term nature of cash 
equivalents, the carrying amounts reported on the combined statement of net 
assets in liquidation as of December 31, 1996 and the balance sheet as of 
December 31, 1995 approximate their fair value.

NOTE 6 - ADOPTION OF NEWLY ISSUED PRONOUNCEMENTS

In March 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement No. 
121, "Accounting for the impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived 
Assets to Be Disposed Of."  In connection with the adoption of the liquidation 
basis of accounting (Note 1), the underlying Properties were written down to 
net realizable values less estimated costs to dispose. Such downward adjustment 
totaling $4,381,367 is included in effect of adoption of the liquidation basis 
of accounting on the accompanying combined statement of operations for the six 
months ended June 30, 1996 and in revision to estimated sales value of property
on the accompanying statement of changes in net assets in liquidation for the 
period July 1, 1996 to December 31, 1996.

    5.   CONDITION OF TITLE

    5.1. Title to the Property conveyed hereunder shall be good, free and clear
of all liens, claims, encumbrances and interests (other than the Permitted
Exceptions set forth on EXHIBIT G) and insurable by a nationally recognized
title insurance company of Purchaser's choice (the "Title Company"), at regular
rates, subject only to such defects and exceptions to title which Purchaser has
not listed as Unacceptable Exceptions (as hereinafter defined) or in a notice to
Seller or otherwise those Unacceptable Exceptions which Purchaser waives and
agrees to take subject to in accordance with the terms of this Agreement (the
"Permitted Exceptions").

    5.2. Purchaser has ordered title and survey. Within fifteen (15) days from
the receipt of title and survey, Purchaser shall notify Seller whether
Purchaser's survey and/or title search reveals any defects or other exceptions
to title which are unacceptable to Purchaser (the "Unacceptable Exceptions").
Seller shall notify Purchaser within five (5) Business Days after receipt of the
notice of such Unacceptable Exceptions whether Seller will attempt to remedy the
same. Should Seller choose to

                                     -17-
<PAGE>

remedy the Unacceptable Exceptions, Seller shall have up to thirty (30) days
within which to take such action as Seller, Purchaser and Purchaser's title
insurance company deem appropriate to clear or remove said Unacceptable
Exceptions and the Closing shall be postponed for up to such thirty (30) days
(the "Adjourned Closing Date"). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller shall be
obligated to remove and cure, or bond over any Unacceptable Exceptions provided
that the removal and cure or the bonding of such exceptions does not exceed
$100,000 in the aggregate (collectively, "Seller Cure Exceptions"). If an
Unacceptable Exception is incapable of being cured within a thirty (30) day
period as set forth above, such thirty (30) day period may be extended by
Purchaser for so long as Seller continues to diligently pursue remedying the
Unacceptable Exception. If after the expiration of said thirty (30) day period,
and prior to the Adjourned Closing Date, a new defect to title is disclosed by
an updated endorsement to Purchaser's title report, the same rights and
obligations of the parties as set forth above shall be applicable.

    5.3. In the event Seller is unable or unwilling to remove any Unacceptable
Exceptions which are not Seller Cure Exceptions in accordance with Section 5.2
above, Purchaser shall have the right to terminate this Agreement. In the event
Purchaser so terminates this Agreement, the Earnest Money Deposit shall be
returned to Purchaser, and upon the return thereof, all

                                     -18-
<PAGE>

obligations of the parties hereto shall cease and terminate other than those
obligations arising under Article 12.

    In addition, in lieu of satisfying any of the foregoing liens or
encumbrances affecting the Property, Seller may direct Purchaser to apply a
portion of the Purchase Price to the satisfaction of such liens and encumbrances
provided that Seller shall, at the Closing, deliver to the Title Company
instruments in recordable form which, in the opinion of the Title Company, will
be sufficient to satisfy and cause such liens or encumbrances to be removed of
record, together with the cost of recording or filing any such instruments.
Purchaser shall, if request is made at least five (5) Business Days prior to the
Closing Date, provide Seller, on the Closing Date, with separate unendorsed
certified or bank checks payable as directed by Seller, in an aggregate amount
not exceeding the Purchase Price, to facilitate the satisfaction of any such
liens or encumbrances.

    6.   PURCHASER'S INSPECTION OF THE PROPERTY.

    6.1. Nothing contained in this Section 6 shall be construed to permit
Purchaser to enter into possession of the Property prior to the Closing.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, for the period
(herein the "Inspection Period") commencing on January 15, 1997 and ending on
March 7, 1997 (herein the "Inspection Termination Date"), Seller agrees that at
reasonable times during the Inspection Period on reasonable notice to Seller's
manager of the Property, Purchaser and its engineers, contractors, management,
insurance and environmental

                                     -19-
<PAGE>

personnel or environmental contractor (collectively referred to herein as
"Purchaser's Inspectors') may enter upon the Real Property and make, at
Purchaser's sole cost, right and expense, reasonable inspections of the books
and records of Seller with respect to the Property or its ownership and
operation and the Real Property without however any interference or interruption
of the current tenancies of the Real Property, or in violation of the terms of
any Leases, provided however, that Purchaser shall at its sole cost and expense
cause the Real Property to be restored to its condition prior to any of
Purchaser's or Purchaser's Inspectors' inspections that altered the condition of
the Real Property Purchaser hereby indemnifies and saves Seller harmless from
and against any and all damages, costs, including, without limitation,
attorneys' fees and costs, injuries, and liabilities to the Property and/or any
persons or property of any person including, without limitation, tenants under
the Leases, their guests, employees and invitees, which may occur by reason of,
or in connection with any such inspections or other entry upon, or use of the
Property by Purchaser or Purchaser's Inspectors. Purchaser and Purchaser's
Inspectors may make the physical inspections described herein provided (a)
Purchaser notifies Seller or its manager of the Inspection of the Property in
advance, (b) Purchaser and/or Purchaser's Inspectors are accompanied by a
representative of Seller, who shall be made available to Purchaser after
reasonable notice to Seller or its manager of the Property of the proposed
inspection, and (c) such



                                     -20-
<PAGE>

inspections do not unreasonably interfere with the operation, management and
leasing of the Property, and the tenants pursuant to the Leases. If Purchaser
intends to conduct invasive testing at the Property, Purchaser shall be required
to first obtain Seller's consent thereto, which shall not be unreasonably
withheld. If Purchaser desires to conduct an environmental "Phase II" study of
the Property, Purchaser shall be required to first obtain Seller's prior written
consent thereto, which shall be given in Seller's sole and absolute discretion.
If Seller does not consent to Purchaser's request to conduct either an
environmental "Phase II" study of the Property or such invasive testing as
Purchaser deems appropriate, Purchaser may terminate this Agreement and in
addition to Seller having returned to Purchaser the Earnest Money Deposit,
Seller shall reimburse Purchaser for its costs and expenses to the date of
termination up to the amount of $35,000. If on or prior to the Inspection
Termination Date Purchaser makes any objection to the condition of the Property,
Seller shall have no obligation to remove or cure any objection to the state of
the Property, and if Seller refuses or is unable to remove or cure such
objections, Purchaser's only remedy hereunder shall be (i) to complete the
Closing as provided herein with no reduction in the Purchase Price or (ii) to
terminate the Agreement and receive back the Earnest Money Deposit, and in such
event this Agreement shall be immediately terminated with neither party having
any rights against the other party hereunder other than those obligations

                                     -21-
<PAGE>

arising under Article 12. Nothing contained herein shall modify, qualify or
affect the representations and warranties made by Seller to Purchaser in this
Agreement. Once the Inspection Termination Date has occurred and Purchaser has
not terminated this Agreement, Purchaser shall continue to be entitled to the
inspection rights (including, without limitation, interviews with Tenants in the
presence of Seller) on the terms set forth herein through the Closing.

    7.   ADJUSTMENTS AND APPORTIONMENTS

    7.1. At the Closing there shall be apportionments and adjustments between
Seller and Purchaser as of midnight preceding the Closing Date (where
appropriate, such adjustments shall be made on the basis of a year of 12 months,
30 days to the month, Seller to have the last day, unless otherwise provided) as
follows:

         (a) Purchaser shall pay all special assessments for municipal
improvements to be made with respect to the Property which are confirmed of
record and become a lien after the Closing and so much of the property taxes
assessed for and becoming a lien during the calendar year in which the Closing
occurs and which shall be allocable to it on and after the Closing. Seller shall
pay the balance of such property taxes at Closing, using the present tax rate if
the applicable tax rate has not been set (i.e. the balance of the 1996 calendar
year taxes and the 1997 calendar year taxes prorated to the date of Closing). If
the Closing shall occur either before an assessment is made or a tax

                                     -22-
<PAGE>

rate is fixed for the tax period in which the Closing occurs, the apportionment
of any such property taxes based thereon shall be made at the Closing by
applying the tax rate for the preceding year to the latest assessed valuation,
but, promptly after the assessment and/or tax rate for the current year are
fixed, the apportionment thereof shall be recalculated and Seller or Purchaser,
as the case may be, shall promptly make an appropriate payment to the other
based on such recalculation.

         (b) Special taxes or assessments, if any, upon the Property assessed
or becoming a lien prior to the Closing Date shall be paid by Seller in full on
or prior to the Closing Date.

         (c) Fuel, electricity, water, sewer, gas, telephone and other utility
charges not payable directly to the utility companies by Tenants (such proration
to be based upon meter readings, where possible, within 2 days prior to the
Closing Date), rents and assigned deposits, if such deposits shall be assignable
(except such metered utility charges which Seller shall cause to be read on the
business day prior to the Closing Date and billed to Seller), Purchaser agreeing
to assume all liability for future utility payments.

         (d) Security deposits.

         (e) Pre-paid rentals for periods extending beyond the Closing Date,
    common area maintenance charges, tax reimbursements, insurance
    reimbursements, and other charges under the Leases. Rents more than thirty
    (30) days in arrears, if any, shall not be adjusted, and the right to
    collect the same shall be

                                     -23-
<PAGE>

assigned to Purchaser (provided that Purchaser shall subsequent to Closing,
remit any collections, applying any payment received from a Tenant formerly
delinquent first to the rentals due to Purchaser and the balance shall be
promptly remitted to Seller). On the Closing Date, adjustments for common area
charges, tax reimbursements, and insurance reimbursements payable with respect
to the period prior to Closing shall be made on the basis of the good faith
estimates of the parties, and final adjustment shall be made when precise
figures are determined but not later than February 15, 1998. Purchaser shall pay
to Seller after Closing any rents, reimbursements, common area charges, tax and
utility charges and other charges due Seller pursuant to the Lease only when and
to the extent they are received by Purchaser.

    (f)  The provisions of this Article 7 shall survive the Closing.

         (i) operate, manage and maintain the Property in a normal businesslike

    in connection with the Property; and

         (b) Between the Inspection Termination Date and the Closing Date,
Seller shall not, without Purchaser's prior written approval (which approval may
be withheld by Purchaser in its sole discretion):

              (i) cancel, amend, modify and/or renew the terms of any Lease,
    undertake capital improvements and repairs (except as may otherwise be
    required by any Lease or by law, or in the event of emergency or other
    exigent circumstance) or enter into new leases, tenancies and occupancy
    agreements with respect to all or any portion of the Property;

approval for an act or acts requiring such approval pursuant to Section 8.1(b)

Business Days from receipt of request from Seller therefor, together with all
material information regarding the same, or it will be deemed approved.

    9.   INSURANCE, DAMAGE - DESTRUCTION, CONDEMNATION

    9.1. If, prior to Closing, any portions of the Improvements are damaged or
destroyed ("Casualty"), or any portion of the property is taken in condemnation,
or notice thereof is received by Seller ("Condemnation"), then:

         (a) in the event the estimated cost to repair or restore is ONE
HUNDRED THOUSAND ($100,000.00) DOLLARS or less, Purchaser shall be obligated to
purchase, and Seller shall be obligated to sell, the Property pursuant to this
Agreement and Seller will assign at the Closing all proceeds of insurance and/or
awards resulting from such damage, destruction or condemnation, it being agreed
and understood that any shortfall in insurance proceeds up to the amount of
$100,000 shall be paid by Seller promptly after being billed therefor, this
provision being intended to survive the Closing.

by Seller, is in excess of ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND ($100,000.00) DOLLARS, then
Seller at its sole absolute discretion may (i) elect to repair and restore, in

    15.3. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article
15, Purchaser may terminate this Agreement on or prior to the Inspection
