ITEM 2. ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS
On May 31, 2000, a wholly owned subsidiary of Net 1 L.P. (the "Partnership")
acquired a property located in Henderson, North Carolina (the "Henderson
Property") for approximately $7.8 million. The Henderson Property is leased to
Corporate Express Office Products, Inc. (the "Tenant"), under the terms of a net
lease. The lease is guaranteed by the Tenant's parent company, Corporate
Express, Inc. The Henderson Property was constructed and completed in December
1998 and was occupied by the Tenant in January 1999. The Henderson Property
consists of an office-warehouse facility situated on 19.09 acres of land.
The current annual rent payable is $712,000 and the average annual rent is
$799,000. The lease expires on January 31, 2014. The lease provides for three
renewal options of five years each at the then fair market values.
The purchase price was satisfied by an assumption of a $4.7 million mortgage
note and an issuance of a $3.1 million demand note. The mortgage note, which
matures May 1, 2009, bears interest at a rate of 7.39% per annum, requires
annual debt service payments of $417,000 and a balloon payment of $3.85 million.
The demand note bears interest at 10% per annum, with interest only payments.
The demand note was fully paid in July 2000.

responsibility of the management of Net 1 L.P. Our responsibility is to express
an opinion on the historical summary based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards.
Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether the historical summary is free of material misstatement.
An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts

as evaluating the overall presentation of the historical summary. We believe
that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
The accompanying Historical Summary of Revenue and Certain Operating Expenses of
the Henderson Property has been prepared for the purpose of complying with the
rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission as described in
Note 2, and is not intended to be a complete presentation of the revenue and

In our opinion, the historical summary referred to above presents fairly, in all
material respects, the revenue and certain operating expenses, as described in

conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

of the Henderson Property
1. Property
On May 31, 2000, a wholly owned subsidiary of Net 1 L.P. (the
"Partnership") acquired a property located in Henderson, North Carolina
(the "Henderson Property") for approximately $7.8 million. The
Henderson Property is leased to Corporate Express Office Products, Inc.
(the "Tenant"), under the terms of a net lease. The lease is guaranteed
by the Tenant's parent company, Corporate Express, Inc. The Henderson
Property was constructed and completed in December 1998 and was
occupied by the Tenant in January 1999. The Henderson Property consists
of an office-warehouse facility situated on 19.09 acres of land.
The current annual rent payable is $712,000 and the average annual rent
is $799,000. The lease expires on January 31, 2014. The lease provides
for three renewal options of five years each at the then fair market
values.
The purchase price was satisfied by an assumption of a $4.7 million
mortgage note and an issuance of a $3.1 million demand note. The
mortgage note, which matures May 1, 2009, bears interest at a rate of
7.39% per annum, requires annual debt service payments of $417,000 and
a balloon payment of $3.85 million. The demand note bears interest at
10% per annum, with interest only payments. The demand note was fully

2. Basis of Presentation
The Historical Summary has been prepared on the accrual method of
accounting. In accordance with the regulations of the Securities and
Exchange Commission, depreciation and general and administrative
expenses have been excluded from certain operating expenses, as such
costs are dependent upon a particular owner, purchase price or other
financial agreement.
3. Revenue Recognition
Minimum revenues from rental property are recognized on a straight-line
basis over the term of the related lease.
The minimum future rental payments receivable under the terms of the
