SCOTTSDALE LAND TRUST LIMITED PARTNERSHIP
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 2000
(1) SUBSEQUENT EVENT:
As provided in the Partnership agreement, the Partnership entered into an
agreement on December 29, 1988 to sell approximately five acres of the Property
(the Parcel) to FFCA at a purchase price determined by independent appraisal to
be the fair market value of the unimproved Parcel and related improvements. In
connection with the sale agreement, the Partnership also funded the construction
of an office building on the Parcel that is the corporate headquarters of FFCA.
This loan to FFCA for the acquisition of the Parcel, the office building and the
parcel improvements totaled $8.5 million. On May 1, 2000, this loan matured and
the principal, together with accrued interest, was paid. In addition, FFCA paid
Additional Interest in the amount of $1.13 million, as provided in the loan
agreement.
The sale of the Parcel to FFCA was recognized in the Partnership's
financial statements on May 1, 2000 when the amounts loaned to FFCA were repaid
to the Partnership.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
Scottsdale Land Trust Limited Partnership (the Registrant) received
$50,000,000 in gross proceeds from its public offering of the Units on November
23, 1988. After deducting organizational and offering expenses, the Registrant
had $43,250,000 in net proceeds available for investment. The net proceeds were
used to purchase the property (The Perimeter Center), fund the construction of
the infrastructure and fund the $8.5 million loan to Franchise Finance
Corporation of America (FFCA), in accordance with the partnership agreement.
Pursuant to the loan agreement, FFCA has made monthly payments to the Registrant
of interest only, through maturity of the loan on May 1, 2000, at which time the
principal balance of the loan was paid off, together with accrued interest, and
Additional Interest in the amount of $1.13 million. Reserves remaining in the
Registrant are approximately $2 million. These reserves may be used from time to
time to pay amounts assessed by the city or county taxing authorities for
developmental or other costs. The Registrant's primary sources of revenue have
been land sales, interest payments received from FFCA under the loan agreement
(interest payments were made through May 1, 2000 at which time the loan was paid
in full) and interest earned on the Registrant's temporary investments. As land
parcels are sold, distributions of the net cash sale proceeds are made in
accordance with the partnership agreement. Once all of The Perimeter Center
parcels are sold, the Registrant will liquidate all of its other assets and
distribute them in accordance with the partnership agreement. As of May 3, 2000,
all land parcels were sold or are under contract for sale. A proxy statement was
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission in April 2000, requesting an
investor vote on the sale of a parcel of property to a related party and on the
dissolution of the partnership upon sale of the remaining parcels under
contract.
During the quarter ended March 31, 2000 (the period), the Registrant closed
two land sale transactions comprising three parcels aggregating approximately 13
acres to unaffiliated third parties. The land sale transactions during the
period provided cash sale proceeds of approximately $6.6 million. The parcels
had a total original cost of $3.1 million and closing and other costs of
approximately $328,000. These parcel sales resulted in gains totaling $3.2
million. Distributions declared from the parcel sale net proceeds amounted to
approximately $6.3 million for the period.
At May 3, 2000, the four remaining land parcels (approximately 34 acres)
were all under contract for sale at prices aggregating approximately $17.8
million. The original cost of these four parcels totaled approximately $5.1
million. Three of the parcels are under contract to unaffiliated third parties
and one parcel is under contract with a related party. The related party
contract was entered into on February 7, 2000 with Franchise Finance Corporation
of America, an affiliate of the General Partner, to purchase a parcel
(approximately 3.6 acres) adjacent to its corporate headquarters. This sale is
subject to the approval, by vote, of the majority of the limited partner
interest of the Partnership. Additionally, all of these contracts are subject to
a due diligence process and, therefore, the Registrant cannot predict which, if
any of these contracts will result in the sale of a land parcel or the timing or
the amount of any future cash distributions. Once the remaining parcels are
sold, the Partnership will liquidate and distribute its assets in accordance
with the Partnership agreement.
Total revenues were approximately $7 million for the quarter ended March
31, 2000 as compared to approximately $238,000 for the comparable quarter in
1999. Revenues in 2000 were higher because land sales comprised the majority of
the revenues in 2000 and there were no land sales during the first quarter of
1999. Interest on investments and other income for the period increased by
approximately $164,000 from the comparable quarter of the prior year due to the
increase in temporary investment securities held during the period. The higher
cash balance in 2000 resulted from net land sale proceeds held during that
quarter prior to distribution of the cash to the limited partners. Total
expenses (excluding the cost of land sales) decreased by approximately $18,000
for the period over the comparable period of the prior year due primarily to
lower property taxes and lower general partner fees due to the sale of land
parcels. These reductions were offset by costs related to the Proxy Statement
filed in April 2000.

In the opinion of management, the financial information included in this
report reflects all adjustments necessary for fair presentation. All such
adjustments are of a normal recurring nature.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.
The financial instruments held by the Registrant at March 31, 2000 consist
of cash equivalents and a loan receivable from an affiliate. The Registrant
intends to hold the investments to maturity; therefore, these financial
instruments do not subject the Registrant to a material exposure to changes in
interest rates.
