Forward-Looking Statements

When used in this Form 10-K Report, the words "believes", "expects", "estimates"
and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements.
Such statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties which could cause
actual results to differ materially. In particular, among the factors that could
cause actual results to differ materially are continued qualification as a real
estate partnership, general business and economic conditions, competition,
increases in real estate construction costs, interest rates, accessibility of
debt and equity capital markets and other risks inherent in the real estate
business including tenant defaults, potential liability relating to
environmental matters and illiquidity of real estate investments. Readers are
cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which
speak only as of the date hereof. The Partnership undertakes no obligation to
publicly release the results of any revisions to these forward-looking
statements which may be made to reflect events or circumstances after the date
hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

The registrant, Net 1 L.P. (the "Partnership") is a limited partnership formed
on August 25, 1987 under the Uniform Limited Partnership Act of the State of
Delaware for the purpose of investing primarily in existing commercial
properties which are then triple net leased to corporations or other entities.
The Partnership Agreement was amended and restated on September 30, 1994, which
enables the Partnership to make additional real estate investments.

The General Partner of the Partnership is Lepercq Net 1 L.P., a Delaware limited
partnership (the "General Partner"). Lepercq Net 1 Inc. is the general partner
of the General Partner. The directors and executive officers of Lepercq Net 1
Inc. are discussed in PART III, Item 10 (Directors and Executive Officers of the
Registrant). Leased Properties Management, Inc., an affiliate of Lepercq Net 1
Inc., performs certain property management services in connection with the
operation of the Partnership's business.

The Partnership commenced an offering to the public of 50,000 units at $1,000
per unit of limited partnership interests (the "Units") on November 20, 1987
pursuant to the Prospectus. The Prospectus was filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission as part of the Partnership's Registration Statement on Form
S-11 (No. 33-16973). On January 17, 1989, the Partnership held the final
admission of Limited Partners, and the offering was terminated after a total of
31,001 Units had been sold, equaling $31,001,000 in capital contributions. As of
December 31, 1996, the Partnership had invested $30,827,269 of the proceeds of
the offering in the properties, which are described in Item 2 below.

The Partnership invests in net leased real properties (or interests therein)
located throughout the United States, which offer the potential for (i)
preserving and protecting the capital of the limited partners of the
Partnership, (ii) providing increasing cash distributions from operations during
the term of the Partnership, (iii) providing tax benefits so that a portion of
the cash distributions is sheltered from current income taxation, and (iv)
appreciation in value of the Partnership's investments.


                                       3
<PAGE>   4

Investments are made in various types of commercial real properties and
interests therein. Such investments may include, but are not limited to: fitness
centers, warehouses, distribution centers, office buildings, retail stores,
hotels, motels, nursing homes and congregate care facilities. The Partnership
will not invest in restaurant properties. Investments will not be restricted as
to specific geographical areas; however, all of the Partnership's investments
will be made within the United States. The Partnership acquired its original
portfolio of properties without acquisition financing, but it borrowed an amount
through a closing loan sufficient to pay all or a portion of the Partnership's
organization, offering and acquisition expenses. The real estate investments
made during 1995 and 1994 were acquired with a combination of acquisition
financing and cash balances.

Each of the following properties (as hereinafter defined) accounted for 10% or
more of consolidated rental revenues for the years ended December 31, as
follows:

  Property                 1996                  1995                 1994
  --------                 ----                  ----                 ----
                                                            
Scandinavian                25%                   36%                  36%
Autozone                    29%                   40%                  41%
Greyhound                   13%                   18%                  17%
Sumter                      18%                    -                    -
Gainesville                 12%                    -                    -

At December 31, 1996, the Scandinavian property accounted for 21%, the AutoZone
properties accounted for 27%, the Greyhound properties accounted for 9%, the
Sumter property accounted for 16% and the Gainesville property accounted for 13%
of total assets.

The Partnership attempts to maintain a working capital cash reserve in an amount
equal to 3% of the gross proceeds of the offering, which is anticipated to be
sufficient to satisfy liquidity requirements. Liquidity of the Partnership could
be adversely affected by unanticipated costs, particularly costs relating to the
vacancy of properties, tenants experiencing financial difficulties, and greater
than anticipated operating expenses. To the extent that such working capital
reserves are insufficient to satisfy the cash requirements of the Partnership,
additional funds may be obtained either through short-term or permanent loans or
by reducing distributions to limited partners.

The Partnership operates in one industry segment, investment in net leased real
property.

Competition

The real estate business is highly competitive and the Partnership competes with
numerous established companies having significantly greater resources and
experience. Competition may also come from other partnerships which have been or
may be formed by the General Partner or its affiliates.

Employees

The Partnership has no employees. All necessary personnel are provided by the
General Partner or its affiliates or agents. See Part III Item 10, "Directors
and Executive Officers of the Registrant" and Item 13, "Certain Relationships
and Related Transactions."

Luis Obispo, California for an aggregate purchase price of $2,674,000. During

and Subnet 1 Partners was dissolved. With the exception of the property in
Barstow, California the Greyhound properties are leased to Greyhound Lines, Inc.
("Greyhound").

On August 22, 1994, the Partnership acquired approximately .835 acres of land
with a building of approximately 9,300 square feet located in the City of

1995, Net 1 Sumter L.P. acquired the Sumter Property for an aggregate purchase
price of approximately $3.85 million. Related acquisition fees of $65,431 were
incurred, of which $37,873 were paid to affiliates of the General Partner. The
total acquisition cost was satisfied by a cash payment of $1,739,542 and an
assumption of a 20-year, 10.375% secured note of $2,110,163. The Sumter Property
is leased to Wal-Mart Stores Inc. The lease has a 25-year base term expiring

interest in Net 1 Gainesville L.P., a Delaware special purpose limited

million. Related acquisition fees of $50,982 were incurred, of which $29,090

satisfied by a cash payment of $1,375,982 and an assumption of a 116-month, 13%
first mortgage note of $1,197,461 and a 176-month, 7.5% second mortgage note of

ITEM 5. MARKET FOR THE REGISTRANT'S COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER
MATTERS

An established public trading market for the Units does not exist, and it is not
anticipated that such a market will develop in the near future. Further, the
transfer of Units is subject to substantial restrictions. Accordingly,
information as to the market value of a Unit at any given date is not available.

As of December 31, 1996, there were 1,724 investors holding 30,772 limited
partnership units.

The Partnership is a limited partnership and, accordingly, does not pay
dividends. However, the Partnership makes quarterly cash distributions. As of
December 31, 1996, the Partnership has made cumulative cash distributions
totaling $19,131,750 to the Limited Partners and $390,444 to the General
Partner. (See note 3 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.)

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

Liquidity and Capital Resources

On November 20, 1987, the Partnership commenced the sale of up to 50,000 Units
of limited partnership interests at $1,000 per Unit with the option to offer an
additional 50,000 Units. As of January 17, 1989, the Partnership had raised a
total of $31,001,000 in capital contributions (31,001 Units) and the offering
was terminated. The net offering proceeds consisting of aggregate gross offering
proceeds of $31,001,000 less related offering costs of $3,781,361, along with
the proceeds from the closing loan and other mortgage debt, have been utilized
by the Partnership to invest in triple net leased real estate properties (or
interests therein); to pay for related property acquisition expenses, financing
and acquisition fees; and to provide for a working capital reserve.

Pursuant to the Partnership Agreement, limited partnership Units may be
repurchased at 90% of the net asset value 60 days after the offer to repurchase
has been made. No Units have been repurchased since 1990.

The Partnership attempts to maintain a working capital reserve in an amount
equal to 3% of the gross proceeds of its offering, an amount which is
anticipated to be sufficient to satisfy liquidity requirements. Liquidity of the
Partnership could be adversely affected by unanticipated costs, additional
lessees experiencing financial difficulties and greater than anticipated
operating expenses. To the extent that such working capital reserves are
insufficient to satisfy the cost requirements of the Partnership, additional
funds may be obtained through short-term or permanent loans or by reducing
distributions to limited partners.

As of December 31, 1996, the Partnership has made cumulative cash distributions
to the Limited Partners totaling $19,131,750. The unpaid cumulative preferred
return at December 31, 1996 totaled $9,010,878 (see note 3 of Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements). The ability of the Partnership to maintain
or increase cash distributions to limited partners is dependent upon investments
in additional income producing properties.

Except for the debt service requirements under the mortgages, there are no
material restrictions upon the Partnership's present or future ability to make
distributions in accordance with the provisions of its Partnership Agreement.

Results of Operations

The results of operations for the years ended December 31, 1996, 1995, and 1994
are primarily attributable to the acquisition and operations of the real
property investments as described in Item 2.

Total revenues for the year ended December 31, 1996, increased $640,093 from
1995, primarily due to a full year effect of rental revenues received on
properties acquired in 1995, offset by lower interest income on investments of
excess cash. Total revenues for the year ended December 31, 1995 increased
$154,117 from 1994, primarily due to higher interest earned on interest bearing
bank investments.

Rental revenues for the year ended December 31, 1996, increased $803,491 from
1995, primarily due to a full year effect of rental income on properties
acquired in 1995. Rental revenues for the year ended December 31, 1995, did not
materially change from 1994.

The Partnership has recorded provisions for losses related to its properties of
$6,113,530 in 1994.

Total expenses for the year ended December 31, 1996, increased $510,648 from
1995, primarily due to interest expense and depreciation on properties acquired
in the fourth quarter of 1995. Total expenses for the year ended December 31,
1995 decreased $6,517,220, primarily due to the provision for losses on
properties in 1994 and decreases in general and administrative expenses and
depreciation.

Interest expense in 1995 was comparable to 1994. General and administrative
expenses for the year ended December 31, 1995 decreased $155,534 from 1994,
primarily due to a decrease in property operating expenses.

Net income for the year ended December 31, 1996, increased $454,124, primarily
due to percentage rent received. Net income for the year ended December 31, 1995
decreased $2,698,542, from 1994, primarily due to proceeds from the lease
termination on the Bloomingdale Property and the gain on the settlement of the
long-term closing loan offset by the provision for losses on properties, all of
which occurred in 1994.

                          Independent Auditors' Report

The Partners
Net 1 L.P.:

We have audited the consolidated financial statements of Net 1 L.P. and
consolidated partnerships as listed in the accompanying index. In connection
with our audits of the consolidated financial statements, we also have audited
the financial statement schedule as listed in the accompanying index. These
consolidated financial statements and the financial statement schedule are the
responsibility of the Partnership's management. Our responsibility is to express
an opinion on these consolidated financial statements and the financial
statement schedule 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
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Net 1 L.P. and
consolidated partnerships as of December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the results of
their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the three-year
period ended December 31, 1996, in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles. Also in our opinion, the related financial statement schedule, when
considered in relation to the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a
whole, presents fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth
therein.

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                        December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994

1.     The Partnership

       Net 1 L.P. (the "Partnership") was formed as a limited partnership on
       August 25, 1987 under the laws of the State of Delaware to invest in real
       estate or interests therein to be net leased to corporations or other
       entities.

       On November 20, 1987, the Partnership commenced the sale of up to 50,000
       Units of limited partnership interests at $1,000 per Unit with the option
       to offer an additional 50,000 Units. As of the last admission of Limited
       Partners, which occurred on January 17, 1989, the Partnership had raised
       a total of $31,001,000 (31,001 Units) from 1,638 investors and the
       offering was terminated.

       Pursuant to the partnership agreement, limited partnership units may be
       repurchased, beginning in 1990. On September 30, 1990, the Partnership
       repurchased 229 limited partnership units for an aggregate purchase price
       of $169,930. No additional Units have been repurchased.

       As of December 31, 1996 there was a total of 1,724 investors holding
       30,772 limited partnership units.

2.     Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

       The Partnership's financial statements are prepared on the accrual basis
       of accounting for financial reporting and Federal income tax reporting
       purposes.

       Real estate is carried at cost less accumulated depreciation. On January
       1, 1996, the Partnership adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
       Standards No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets 
       and for Long-Lived Assets to be disposed of." This SFAS establishes the
       recognition and measurement criteria for impairment losses on long-lived
       assets, certain identifiable intangibles and goodwill related to those
       assets to be held and used and for long-lived assets and certain
       identifiable intangibles to be disposed of. This SFAS requires that an
       impairment loss be recognized when events or changes in circumstances
       indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. The
       adoption of this SFAS had no effect on the Partnership's results of
       operations or its financial condition for the year December 31, 1996.
       Acquisition fees incurred in connection with the properties acquired have
       been capitalized as a component of the cost of such properties.
       Depreciation for financial reporting and Federal income tax purposes is
       determined by the straight-line method over the economic useful life of
       the property estimated to be 40 years for depreciable real property.

       The financial statements reflect the accounts of the Partnership, Net 1
       Sumter L.P. and Net 1 Gainesville L.P., on a consolidated basis. The
       Partnership owns a 99% limited partnership interest in each of Net 1
       Sumter L.P. and Net 1 Gainesville L.P. The minority interest is not
       significant and is included in other liabilities and general,
       administrative and other expenses in the accompanying consolidated
       financial statements.

                                                                     (Continued)

                    NET 1 L.P. AND CONSOLIDATED PARTNERSHIPS

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                        December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994

2., Continued

       For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Partnership considers
       all highly liquid instruments to be cash equivalents. The balance sheet
       caption cash and cash equivalents includes $2.096 million of money market
       instruments at December 31, 1996. 

       The Partnership uses the accrual basis of accounting for Federal income 
       tax purposes. No provision for income taxes has been made as the 
       liability for such taxes is that of the partners rather than the 
       Partnership.

       The leases relating to the properties are operating leases in accordance
       with SFAS 13. Rental revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over
       the minimum lease terms. At December 31, 1996 and 1995, rent receivable
       primarily consists of amounts for the excess of rental revenues
       recognized on a straight-line basis over the rents collectible under the
       leases.

       Income per Unit amounts were calculated by using the weighted average
       number of Units outstanding for each period and allocating the income
       attributable for that period to the Limited Partners. The weighted
       average Units outstanding was 30,772 for the years ended December 31,
       1996, 1995 and 1994.

       The Financial Accounting Standards Board's Statement of Financial
       Accounting Standards No. 107, Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial
       Instruments, defines fair value of a financial instrument as the amount
       at which the instrument could be exchanged at a current transaction
       between willing parties. The Partnership's cash, mortgage notes payable,
       and accounts payable and accrued liabilities are considered to be 
       financial instruments and are carried at cost, which approximates fair 
       value.

       Management of the Partnership has made a number of estimates and
       assumptions relating to the reporting of assets and liabilities and the
       disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities to prepare these
       financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting
       principles. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

3.     The Partnership Agreement

       Pursuant to the terms of the Partnership Agreement, the General Partner
       is liable for all general obligations of the Partnership to the extent
       not paid by the Partnership. The Limited Partners are not and will not be
       liable for the debts of the Partnership beyond their contributed capital.

       Distributable cash from operations, as defined in the Partnership
       Agreement, is generally to be distributed 98% to the Limited Partners and
       2% to the General Partner until each Limited Partner has received total
       distributions from operations equal to an 11% cumulative non-compounded
       preferred return. Thereafter, such distributions are to be made 90% to
       the Limited Partners and 10% to the General Partner.

       Distributable cash from capital transactions, as defined, is generally to
       be distributed 99% to the Limited Partners and 1% to the General Partner
       until each Limited Partner has received total distributions from capital
       transactions equal to an 11%, cumulative non-compounded preferred return
       plus a return of capital contributions. Thereafter, such distributions
       are to be made 85% to the Limited Partners and 15% to the General
       Partner.

                                                                     (Continued)

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                        December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994

3., Continued

       For financial statement reporting purposes, all items of income are
       allocated in the same proportion as cumulative distributions of
       distributable cash.

       Distributable cash attributed to a particular limited partner's Unit is
       calculated from the date of admission to the Partnership. As of December
       31, 1996, the Partnership has made cumulative cash distributions to the
       Limited Partners totaling $19,131,750 ($643.73 to $585.19 per unit, per
       close). The unpaid cumulative preferred return at December 31, 1996
       totaled $9,010,878 ($293.41 to $289.61 per Unit, per close).

       Cash distributions paid per Unit of limited partnership interest for each
       of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 1996 were
       $50.04, $93.40, and $50.04, respectively.

       On January 31, 1997, the unpaid cumulative preferred return at December
       31, 1996 was reduced by a cash distribution to the Limited Partners for
       the quarter ended December 31, 1996 totaling $384,958 ($12.51 per unit)
       (see note 8).

       The Partnership Agreement was amended and restated on September 30, 1994,
       which enables the Partnership to make additional real estate investments.

       Taxable income, as defined, before depreciation, generally is allocated
       in the same proportion as cumulative distributions of distributable cash
       or cumulative proceeds from capital transactions (other than the portion
       of such proceeds constituting a return of capital). Depreciation and
       amortization expense, to the extent that it does not exceed income before
       depreciation for such year, shall be allocated in the same ratio as
       taxable income. Any excess of such depreciation deductions shall be
       allocated 98% to the Limited Partners and 2% to the General Partner. For
       financial statement reporting purposes all items of income are allocated
       in the same proportion as distributions of distributable cash or proceeds
       from capital transactions.

4.     Investments in Real Estate

       On June 28, 1988, the Partnership acquired an office building located in
       Bloomingdale, Illinois (the "Bloomingdale Property") for a purchase price
       of $10,150,400. The Bloomingdale Property was leased to Policy Management
       Systems Corporation ("PMSC"), a company which services health insurance
       systems software. On February 14, 1994, the Partnership entered into a
       lease termination agreement with PMSC which released PMSC from its
       obligation to pay rent in exchange for a cash payment of $7.9 million.

       On November 30, 1994, the Partnership entered into an agreement to sell
       the property for $3 million. Accordingly, the Partnership wrote down the
       carrying value of the property to the amount of estimated net proceeds to
       be realized by incurring a provision for loss of $6,113,530 for the year
       ended December 31,1994. The Bloomingdale Property was sold on March 15,
       1995 for approximately $3 million and with proceeds of $2,649,309. The
       Partnership incurred a loss of approximately $325,000 from the sale.

                                                                     (Continued)

       On July 18, 1988, the Partnership acquired a health and tennis club
       facility located in Phoenix, Arizona (the "Scandinavian Property") for a
       purchase price of $5,520,700. The Scandinavian Property is leased to
       Scandinavian U.S. Swim and Fitness, Inc., an indirect and wholly owned
       subsidiary of Bally Health and Tennis Corporation, a major operator of
       fitness centers in the United States. The lease has a 20-year base term
       expiring July 17, 2008, with two optional five-year renewal terms. The
       minimum net rents to be received during the first five years of the base
       term of the lease are $607,277 per annum. The rent payable under the
       lease will be increased at the expiration of the first 60 months of the
       term of the lease and will increase every 60 months thereafter by 11.5%
       of the rent payable during the preceding 60-month period. If the lessee
       executes its option, the annual rent amounts will be similarly increased.

       On August 26, 1988 the Partnership acquired 16 Autozone stores (the
       "Autozone Properties") located in five states for a purchase price of
       $6,538,300. The Autozone Properties are leased to AutoZone Inc., a
       privately held company which sells automotive parts. The 16 leases each
       have a 20-year base term expiring on August 25, 2008 with three optional
       renewal terms of five years each. The total annual net rents for all 16
       leases during the base term are equal to the greater of $735,559 or 2.25%
       of the aggregate gross sales of the Autozone Properties. From inception
       of the lease, 2.25% of the aggregate gross sales have not exceeded
       $735,559. During the renewal terms, rents are the greater of 2% of the
       aggregate gross sales or the average annual rent paid in the last two
       years of the term preceding the start of such renewal term.

       On February 1, 1989, the Partnership acquired a warehouse distribution
       facility located in Warwick Township, Pennsylvania (the "Nichols
       Property") for a purchase price of $4,085,000. The Nichols Property was
       leased to Schreiber Company, a distributor of nationally advertised
       brand-name products. On April 26, 1991, the tenant of the Nichols
       Property filed a petition with the United States Bankruptcy Court (the
       "Bankruptcy Court") for relief under Chapter 11 of the United States Code
       (the "Bankruptcy Code"). The tenant of the Nichols Property liquidated
       its assets, discontinued its business operations and vacated the Nichols
       Property.

       In 1993, the Partnership wrote down the value of the property, to what it
       believed was the investment's recoverable value, by charging provisions
       for losses on real estate of $1,000,000. On May 4, 1994, the Partnership
       sold the property for $1.5 million and realized a loss of approximately
       $64,000.

       On February 28, 1989, the Partnership acquired an aggregate 99.9% general
       partnership interest in Subnet 1 Partners, a Delaware special purpose
       general partnership. On that date, Subnet 1 Partners acquired four bus
       terminals (the "Greyhound Properties") located in Barstow, San
       Bernardino, Stockton, and San Luis Obispo, California for an aggregate
       purchase price of $2,756,800. During 1991, all of the assets of Subnet 1
       Partners were transferred to the Partnership and Subnet 1 Partners was
       dissolved. With the exception of the property in Barstow, California, the
       Greyhound Properties are leased to Greyhound Lines, Inc. ("Greyhound").

                                                                     (Continued)

       payment of $1,375,982 and assumption of a 116-month, 13% first mortgage
       note of $1,197,461 and a 176-month, 7.5% second mortgage note of

5.     Mortgage Notes Payable and Long-Term Closing Loan

       In 1988, an agreement was entered into with a commercial lender to
       provide the Partnership with a loan ("closing loan") in an amount up to
       $8,500,000. In February 1992, the commercial lender which provided the
       closing loan was placed in receivership by the Federal Deposit Insurance
       Corporation ("FDIC"). The settlement agreement with the FDIC resulted in
       a net gain of $1,200,239 to the Partnership.

       interest in Net 1 Sumter L.P. and in Net 1 Gainesville L.P., Delaware

(A)    The initial cost includes the purchase price paid by the Partnership and
       acquisition fees and expenses. There is no difference between the initial
       cost for financial reporting purposes and the initial cost for Federal
       income tax purposes. The total costs of the properties acquired in 1988
       exceed the initial costs due to the Partnership's subsequent incurrence
       of other costs related to the acquisitions.
