PART I.
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.
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
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
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 a 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 million in capital contributions.
On September 30, 1990, the Partnership repurchased 229 limited partnership Units
for an aggregate purchase price of $169,930. No Units have been repurchased
since 1990.
The Partnership invests in net leased real properties (or interests
therein) located throughout the United States, which offer the potential for (i)
preservation and protection of the capital of the limited partners of the
Partnership, (ii) providing increasing cash available for distributions, (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.
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. Investments are
not restricted as to specific geographical areas, however, all of the
Partnership's investments are made within the United States.

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

(*) These properties consist of 16 retail stores located as follows: two in
Alabama, two in Florida, one in Georgia, five in New Mexico, and six in
Texas and were sold on June 30, 1999.
(**) These properties consist of three bus terminals located in California, two
of which were sold in December of 1999.
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.
The General Partner has granted Lexington Corporate Properties Trust
("Lexington"), whose chairman and Co-Chief Executive Officer, is an officer and
a shareholder of the General Partner, an option exercisable at any time, to
acquire the general partnership interest. Under the terms of the option,
Lexington, subject to review of any such transaction by the independent members
of its Board of Trustees, may acquire the general partnership interest at its
fair market value based upon a formula relating to partnership cash flows, with
Lexington retaining the option of paying such fair market value in securities of
Lexington, limited partnership Units in controlled subsidiaries, cash or a
combination thereof. Lexington provides the Partnership with various
administrative services.
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.

<PAGE> 5
Environmental Matters
Under various federal, state and local environmental laws, statutes,
ordinances, rules and regulations, an owner of real property may be liable for
the costs of removal or redemption of certain hazardous or toxic substances at,
on, in or under such property as well as certain other potential costs relating
to hazardous or toxic substances (including government fines and penalties and
damages for injuries to persons and adjacent property). Such laws often impose
liability without regard to whether the owner knew of, or was responsible for,
the presence or disposal of such substances. Although the Partnership's tenants
are responsible for any environmental damage and claims related to the leased
premises, in the event of the bankruptcy or inability of the tenant of such
premises to satisfy any obligations with respect thereto, the Partnership may be
required to satisfy such obligations. In addition, under certain environmental
laws, the Partnership, as the owner of such properties, may be held directly
liable for any such damages or claims irrespective of the provisions of any
lease.
From time to time, in connection with the conduct of the Partnership's
business, and prior to the acquisition of any property from a third party or as
required by the Partnership's financing sources, the Partnership authorizes the
preparation of Phase I environmental reports with respect to its properties.
Based upon such environmental reports and management's ongoing review of its
properties, as of the date of this annual report, management was not aware of
any environmental condition with respect to any of the Partnership's properties
which management believed would be reasonably likely to have a material adverse
effect on the Partnership. There can be no assurance, however, that (i) the
discovery of environmental conditions, the existence or severity of which were
previously unknown, (ii) changes in law, (iii) the conduct of tenants or (iv)
activities relating to properties in the vicinity of the Partnership's
properties will not expose the Partnership to material liability in the future.
Changes in laws increasing the potential liability for environmental conditions
existing on properties or increasing the restrictions on discharges or other
conditions may result in significant unanticipated expenditures or may otherwise
adversely affect the operations of the Partnership's tenants, which would
adversely affect the Partnership's financial condition and results of
operations, including funds from operations.
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".

(2), Florida (2), Georgia (1), New Mexico (5) and Texas (6). The Partnership
realized a gain from the sale of approximately $2.67 million.
On December 21, 1999, the Partnership sold a property located in San
Bernardino, California, the Greyhound Property, to an unrelated party for net
proceeds of approximately $881,000, which resulted in a gain of approximately
$351,000.
On December 23, 1999, the Partnership sold a property located in San Luis

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, 1999, there were 1,395 investors holding 30,772 limited
partnership units.
The Partnership makes quarterly cash distributions. Cash distributions paid
per Unit of limited partnership interest for each of the years in the three-year
period ended December 31, 1999 was $50.04.

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 million in capital contributions (31,001 Units) and
the offering was terminated. The net offering proceeds consisting of aggregate
gross offering proceeds of $31.001 million less related offering costs of $3.781
million, along with the proceeds from a 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. On September 30, 1990, the Partnership repurchased 229 limited
partnership Units for an aggregate purchase price of $169,930. No Units have
been repurchased since 1990.
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.
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, 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.
The unpaid cumulative preferred return at December 31, 1999 totaled $14.546
million ($469.49 to $475.34 per Unit, per close), and was reduced by $384,958
($12.51 per Unit) with the fourth quarter 1999 distribution paid on January 31,
2000.
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.
During the year ended December 31, 1999, the Partnership entered into the
following real estate transactions:

The Phoenix Property was purchased through a cash payment of approximately
$4.8 million, the issuance of a $1.2 million unsecured note and the assumption
of $5.6 million mortgage note. The mortgage note bears interest at a rate of
8.12% per annum, with an annual debt service payment of principal and interest
in the amount of $621,297. The mortgage note matures on October 10, 2005 with a
balloon payment of approximately $4.2 million. The $1.2 million unsecured note
has a term of 6 years with interest accruing at 8% per annum, due and payable on
September 30, 2005.
Both the San Diego and the Phoenix Properties were purchased from Lexington
Corporate Properties Trust, whose chairman is an officer and a shareholder of
the General Partner.
On June 30, 1999, the Partnership sold sixteen properties to Autozone,
Inc., for net proceeds of approximately $8.6 million. The Autozone Properties
aggregating 104,600 square foot retail stores are located in Alabama (2),
Florida (2), Georgia (1), New Mexico (5) and Texas (6). The Partnership realized
a gain from sale of approximately $2.67 million.
On December 21, 1999, the Partnership sold a property located in San
Bernardino, California, the Greyhound Property, to an unrelated party for net
proceeds of approximately $881,000, which resulted in a gain of approximately
$351,000.
On December 23, 1999, the Partnership sold a property located in San Luis
Obispo, California, the Greyhound Property, to an unrelated party for net
proceeds of approximately $817,000, which resulted in a gain of approximately
$350,000.
Impact of Year 2000
To date there have been no situations that the General Partner is aware of,
where the Year 2000 issue has caused a computer system that effects the
Partnership or any of its properties to function improperly.

The changes in results of operations with respect to revenues, interest and
depreciation for the years ended December 31, 1999, 1998, and 1997 are primarily
attributable to the operations of the real property investments acquired and
sold, and related mortgages assumed as described above.
General and administrative expenses decreased in 1999 due to property
appraisals incurred. General and administrative expenses increased in 1998 due
to transactional expenses incurred in 1998 relating to the proposed partnership
roll-up.
ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK

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 consolidated financial statement schedule as listed in the accompanying
index. These consolidated financial statements and the consolidated 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 consolidated 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, 1999 and 1998, and the results
of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the three-year
period ended December 31, 1999, in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles. Also in our opinion, the related consolidated 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, 1999, 1998 AND 1997
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 net leased
real estate properties or interests therein. The Partnership terminates on
December 31, 2027, unless sooner terminated by law.
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 million (31,001 Units) from 1,638 investors and the offering was
terminated. On September 30, 1990, the Partnership repurchased 229 limited
partnership Units for an aggregate purchase price of $169,930. No Units have
been repurchased since 1990.
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.
As of December 31, 1999, there were a total of 1,395 investors holding
30,772 limited partnership units.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The Partnership's financial statements are prepared on the accrual basis.
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 and administrative expenses in the accompanying
consolidated financial statements.
Real estate assets are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. If
there is an event or change in circumstance that indicates an impairment in the
value of a property has occurred, the Partnership's policy is to assess any
impairment in value by making a comparison of the current and projected
operating cash flows of each such property over its remaining useful life, on an
undiscounted basis, to the carrying amount of the property. If such carrying
amounts are in excess of the estimated projected operating cash flows of the
property, the Partnership would recognize an impairment loss equivalent to an
amount required to adjust the carrying amount to its estimated fair market
value. No such impairment loss has occurred.
All direct costs associated with the acquisition of real estate are
capitalized.
Depreciation is determined by the straight-line method over the remaining
estimated economic useful lives of the properties. The Partnership generally
depreciates buildings over a 40-year period.

NET 1 L.P. AND CONSOLIDATED PARTNERSHIPS
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)
The leases relating to the properties are operating leases in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles. Rental revenue is recognized on a
straight-line basis over the minimum lease terms. At December 31, 1999 and 1998,
rent receivable consists of the excess of rental revenues recognized on a
straight-line basis over the rents collectible under the leases.
Percentage rent is recognized on a cash basis. The percentage rent received
for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 1999 was
$447,000, $446,000 and $319,000, respectively.
The Partnership considers all highly liquid instruments with maturities of
three months or less from the date of purchase to be cash equivalents.
As of December 31, 1999, the restricted cash represents proceeds from sale
of properties restricted for investment in future acquisitions.
No provision for income taxes has been made as the liability for such taxes
is that of the individual partners rather than the Partnership.
Income per Unit amounts were calculated by using the weighted average
number of Units outstanding for each year and allocating the income attributable
for that year to the Limited Partners. The weighted average Units outstanding
for each of the years in the three-year ended December 31, 1999 was 30,772.
The Financial Accounting Standards Board's Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards (SFAS) 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, long term debt, accounts payable and accrued
liabilities are considered to be financial instruments and except for certain
mortgage notes payable, as described in note 5, 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, the disclosure
of contingent assets and liabilities, and the reported amounts of revenues and
expenses to prepare these consolidated 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. As of December 31, 1999, the
Partnership has not made any distributions of proceeds from capital
transactions.
For financial statement reporting purposes, all items of income are
allocated in the same proportion as cumulative distribution of distributable
cash.
Distributable cash attributed to a particular limited partner's Unit is
calculated from the date of admission to the Partnership. The unpaid cumulative
preferred return at December 31, 1999 totaled $14.546 million ($469.49 to
$475.34 per Unit, per close). On January 31, 2000, the unpaid cumulative
preferred return at December 31, 1999 was reduced by a cash distribution to the
Limited Partners for the quarter ended December 31, 1999 totaling $384,958
($12.51 per unit). The General Partner received a cash distribution of $7,856 on
January 31, 2000.
Cash distributions paid per Unit of limited partnership interest for each
of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 1999 was $50.04.
Taxable income as defined, before depreciation, generally is allocated in
the same proportion as cumulative distributions of distributable cash or
cumulative distributable cash 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 distributable cash from capital
transactions.
