ITEM 1  -      BUSINESS

         Atlantic Income Properties (the "Registrant" or the "Partnership") is
a North Carolina limited partnership organized as of March 30, 1988. The
General Partners of the Registrant are ISC Realty Corporation ("ISCR"), a North
Carolina corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Interstate/Johnson Lane,
Inc., and Chadsford Associates II ("Chadsford"), a North Carolina general
partnership whose partners are Lat W. Purser, III and Lat Purser & Associates,
Inc. ("LPA"). ISCR and Chadsford shall hereinafter be collectively referred to
as the "General Partners". The Initial Limited Partner of the Registrant is
Atlantic Income, Inc., a North Carolina corporation.

         The Registrant's principal investment objectives are to own, hold,
operate, lease, sell, and otherwise deal in commercial real estate properties
(the "Properties") which offer the potential for (1) preservation and
protection of capital invested in the Registrant, (2) cash distributions from
operations of the Properties, (3) long term appreciation in value of the
Properties, and (4) protection for investors against inflation. As of December
31, 1997, the offering proceeds and cash flow from operations have been used
to: (i) acquire and maintain Southwest Plaza in Roanoke, Virginia; Lincoln
Center in Lincolnton, North Carolina; Sangaree Plaza in Berkeley County, South
Carolina; Rosewood Shopping Center in Columbia, South Carolina; and West Ridge
Plaza in Bristol, Tennessee; (ii) make distributions to investors; and (iii)
invest in short-term investments.

         It is intended that the Registrant be self-liquidating and
accordingly, the net proceeds of any sale of any Property will be distributed
to the beneficial unit certificate holders.

         The Registrant terminated its Offering of beneficial unit certificates
effective on February 7, 1990, with the total number of BUCs subscribed being
508,594. Total gross proceeds from the offering were $10,174,012 and total net
proceeds to the Registrant equaled $8,880,362 after deducting organization and
offering expenses of $1,293,650.

         The real estate business is highly competitive, and the Partnership
competes with numerous established companies, real estate investment trusts and
other limited partnerships, some of which have greater assets than the
Partnership, and broader experience than the General Partners. Some of the
competitive factors which the Partnership may encounter from time to time
include a rising level of vacancies due to changes in supply or demand of
competing properties in an area, such as excess supply resulting from
competitive overbuilding and a decrease in rental rates due to an economic
slowdown.

         The General Partners or their affiliates currently serve as a general
partner in over 12 public and private partnerships which currently own various
types of real property. None of the prior partnerships sponsored by the General
Partners now contemplate the acquisition of any additional properties due to
all public funds being fully invested. However, it is likely that the General
Partners or their affiliates will sponsor additional public or private
partnerships in the future. In addition, the General Partners and their
affiliates are and will continue to be engaged in 



                                       2
<PAGE>   3

the business of real estate investment, development and management apart from
their involvement in the Registrant.

         The General Partners intend to devote only such time to the business
of the Registrant as in their judgment is reasonably required. The General
Partners are engaged in other similar activities which also require their time
and attention.

         As of December 31, 1997, the Registrant did not directly employ any
persons in a full-time position. Certain employees of the General Partners
performed services for the Registrant during such time.

         On April 1, 1998, the Registrant sold three of its five properties.
The pro-forma results are shown in Exhibit 99.1 and discussed in greater detail
below.

ITEM 2  -      PROPERTIES

         (a)   Southwest Plaza

         Southwest Plaza Shopping Center is an 88,308 square-foot shopping
center situated on approximately 7.58 acres of land in Roanoke, Virginia.
Southwest Plaza is anchored by a 30,450 square-foot Harris-Teeter Supermarket
and a 10,678 square-foot Revco drug store. In addition, a 3,250 square-foot
Firestone Tire Center and Car Maintenance Shop is located on a 0.487 acre tract
of land separate from the Southwest Plaza Shopping Center but also owned by the
Registrant. As of March 19, 1998, the center was 99% leased and 65% occupied.
Three leases totaling 5,600 square feet will expire by December 31, 1998.

America, secured by the center, had a five year-term, an interest rate of 9.75%
and expired on September 15, 1993. An extension of the Southwest Loan was then
granted by the lender for a period of 36 months from April 15, 1994. As of
March 19, 1998, the Registrant had entered into a forebearance agreement
extending the loan until June 15, 1998. Terms include monthly principal and
interest payments of $39,631 at an interest rate of 10.0%. The balance of the
mortgage at December 31, 1997 was $3,041,814. The Registrant previously
executed and delivered to the lender an agreement cross-collateralizing and
cross-defaulting the Southwest Plaza and Lincoln Center loans.

         This property was sold to Edens & Avant Properties Limited Partnership
on April 1, 1998. The aggregate purchase price was $5,688,227. The proceeds from
the sale were used to repay the loan from Prudential which had an outstanding
balance of $2,990,062, including accrued interest, and pay for various closing
costs and adjustments. The balance of the net proceeds, approximately $2.55
million will be distributed to the beneficial unit certificate holders. The
Contract of Sale is attached in Exhibit 99.

         (b)      Lincoln Center



                                       3

         The original $3,000,000 loan from the Prudential Insurance Company of
America, secured by the center, expired April 15, 1994. The Registrant was
granted a 36 month extension of the loan until April 15, 1997. As of March 19,
1997, the Registrant had entered into a forebearance agreement extending the
loan until June 15, 1998. Terms include monthly principal and interest payments
of $32,248.30 at an interest rate of 10.0%. The balance of the mortgage at
December 31, 1997 was $2,475,417.95. The Registrant previously executed and
delivered to the lender an agreement cross-collateralizing and cross-defaulting
the Southwest Plaza and Lincoln Center loans.

         This property was sold to Edens & Avant Properties Limited Partnership
on April 1, 1998. The aggregate purchase price was $5,748,155. The proceeds from
the sale were used to repay the loan from Prudential which had an outstanding
balance of $2,421,117, including accrued interest, and pay for various closing
costs and adjustments. The balance of the net proceeds, approximately $3.2
million will be distributed to the beneficial unit certificate holders. The
Contract of Sale is attached in Exhibit 99.

         (c)  Sangaree Plaza

         Sangaree Plaza, a 58,948 square-foot shopping center located in
Berkeley County, South Carolina, is anchored by a 37,369 square-foot Bi-Lo
Supermarket and an 8,450 square-foot Revco Drug Store. The remaining spaces are
leased to local and regional tenants. The property was 97% leased as of March
19, 1998. There is one lease of 2,000 square feet expiring prior to December
31, 1998.

         Sangaree Plaza was acquired subject to a permanent mortgage loan from
Southern Farm Bureau Life Insurance Company with an original principal balance
of $1,750,000. A new loan which added $1,200,000 to the loan balance was
granted in conjunction with the Bi-Lo expansion and closed May 11, 1993. Loan
terms are a 9 1/8% interest rate, 25 year amortization and a five year term.
The balance of the mortgage at December 31, 1997, was $2,684,523. The loan
matures on June 30, 1998.

         This property was sold to Edens & Avant Properties Limited Partnership
on April 1, 1998. The aggregate purchase price was $4,413,618. The proceeds from
the sale were used to repay the loan from Southern Farm which had an outstanding
balance of $2,694,926, including accrued interest, and pay for various closing
costs and adjustments. The balance of the net proceeds, 



                                       4
<PAGE>   5

approximately $1.6 million will be distributed to the beneficial unit
certificate holders. The Contract of Sale is attached in Exhibit 99.

         (d)  Rosewood Shopping Center

         Rosewood Shopping Center, a 55,087 square-foot shopping center located
in Columbia, South Carolina, is anchored by three major tenants: Dollar General
(subleasing from Rite Aid), Advance Auto, and First Citizen's Bank and Trust
Company. The anchor tenants occupy a total of 14,600 square feet, or 25% of the
net leasable area. Rite Aid vacated its space in 1996 and moved to a
free-standing location, however, they have remained current on their lease
payments and are obligated to do so until November 10, 2000. As of March 19,
1998, the center was 89% occupied. Two leases representing 5,400 square feet
will expire by December 31, 1998.

         Rosewood is owned subject to a mortgage loan originally obtained from
the Independent Life and Accident Insurance Company. The loan bears interest at
an annual rate of 9 7/8% and has a term of 27 years. The note is being repaid
in equal monthly payments of principal and interest of $13,499 amortized over
the remaining term of the loan ending October, 2016. The balance of the
mortgage at December 31, 1997, was $1,379,966.

         (e)  West Ridge Plaza

         West Ridge, a 140,985 square-foot shopping center situated on 14.372
acres of land in Bristol, Tennessee, is anchored by Wal-Mart, Food Lion, and
Revco, which occupy 79,900 square feet, 27,885 square feet, and 10,500 square
feet, respectively. In the aggregate, these tenants occupy 118,285 square feet
or 83.9% of the center's net leasable space. As of March 19, 1998, the center
was 98% leased and occupied. No leases are scheduled to expire prior to
December 31, 1998.

         West Ridge Plaza was purchased subject to revenue bonds and was
refinanced in 1990. On January 5, 1990, the Registrant combined the net
proceeds of a $4,500,000 loan received from Provident National Assurance
Company ("Provident") with Offering proceeds and deposited $5,750,650 in cash
and government securities with the Trustee of the Bonds, thereby causing the
Bonds to be deemed paid. Provident received a first lien Deed of Trust
encumbering West Ridge Plaza in consideration of making said loan. The
Provident loan bears interest at 9.6% per annum and had a term of five years
which expired January 1, 1995. The lender granted three one-year forbearance
periods , the latest of which expired January 1, 1998. The Registrant and the
lender are negotiating a further extension. The lender has continued to accept
the normal monthly payment of principal and interest in the amount of $38,658.
The General Partners are optimistic that the lender will extend the maturity of
the note. The balance of the mortgage at December 31, 1997, was $4,248,130.

         The Registrant received an offer for the purchase of this property on
March 31, 1998. The offer states a price of $4.5 million. If this Buyer were to
purchase the property, the proceeds would be used to retire the loan formerly
held by Provident, which had a balance of approximately $4.24 million as of
March 31, 1998. Any proceeds remaining after closing costs and adjustments
would be available for distribution to the beneficial unit certificate holders.

         The Registrant has commenced an action seeking declaratory judgement
for breach of contract against SunWest Properties Inc., and Republic Title of
Texas, Inc. Registrant and SunWest were parties to a Real Estate Purchase
Agreement dated July 11, 1997. The Registrant contends that SunWest breached
this agreement and is seeking damages therefrom.

               HOLDER MATTERS

subject to certain restrictions contained in the Registrant's Limited

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

Liquidity and Capital Resources

         The Registrant generated $1,028,397 of cash flow from operations
during the year ended December 31, 1997. Cash payments during the year ended
December 31, 1997, for interest on the Registrant's outstanding long-term debt
amounted to $1,344,911. In addition, $420,854 of principal payments were made
on loans.

         As of December 31, 1997, the Registrant held cash and cash equivalents
of $283,889. In addition, $122,066 was held in restricted cash accounts related
to tenant deposits and property tax escrows.

         As previously mentioned, the Registrant entered into a Contract of
Sale on February 25, 1998 for the sale of Southwest Plaza, Lincoln Center and
Sangaree Plaza. The sale closed on April 1, 1988 at the contract price. A
portion of the sale proceeds were used to retire the outstanding indebtedness
encumbering each property and pay for certain closing costs. The remainder of
the proceeds will be reserved for operational needs and distributed to the BUC
holders. The distribution is scheduled to be sent to the BUC holders on April
15, 1998 and totals $14.50 per BUC. The Contract of Sale is attached as Exhibit
99.

         The Registrant continues to market the remaining real estate assets
for sale. The Registrant believes, based upon the response from potential
buyers that it will be successful in selling the assets and retiring the debt
secured by those assets by December 31, 1998.

Results of Operations.

COMPARISON OF THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1997, TO THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED
DECEMBER 31, 1996

         The Partnership reported a net loss of $888,979 for the year ended
December 31, 1997, as compared to net income of $134,508 for the year ended
December 31, 1996.

         Rental and reimbursement income for the year ended December 31, 1997,
increased to $3,131,418 for the year ended December 31, 1997, from $3,099,739
for the year ended December 31, 1996, an increase of 1%. The increase is
attributable to contractual rental increases within the exisiting tenant base
and the continued strong occupancy at the properties.



                                       7

         Interest expense decreased slightly from $1,344,491 for the year ended
December 31, 1996, to $1,340,972 for the year ended December 31, 1997. This
decrease was due to a greater amount of principal being amortized with each
monthly payment on all five mortgage notes. The decrease was partially offset
by the higher interest rate on the Lincoln and Southwest loans.

         Other operating expenses increased $116,652, or 13% to $985,395 for
the year ended December 31, 1997. The increase resulted from higher expenses at
Rosewood for common area maintenance and repairs, higher legal and accounting
costs as well as adjustments made during the audit for the treatment of certain
operating costs.

         Write-down of rental property increased to $1,700,000 for the year
ended December 31, 1997, from $773,000 for the year ended December 31, 1996.
This write-down was due to the current marketing of the Partnership's
properties for sale and the General Partner's opinion that the net sale prices
for Rosewood Shopping Center and West Ridge Plaza will be less than their
respective net book values. Under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No. 121, this adjustment is shown as an operating expense.

COMPARISON OF THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1996, TO THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED
DECEMBER 31, 1995

         The Partnership reported net income of $134,508 for the year ended
December 31, 1996, as compared with net income of $306,231 for the year ended
December 31, 1995.

         Rental and reimbursement income for the year ended December 31, 1996,
decreased $47,869 from $3,147,608 for the year ended December 31, 1995, to
$3,099,739 for the year ended December 31, 1996. Base rental income and expense
recoveries generally were flat to slightly up at all five properties in 1996.
This was due to continued strong occupancy and normal rent and expense recovery
escalations at the properties. The main factor behind the decrease in total
revenue was a $66,000 decline in percentage rent received from Wal-Mart at West
Ridge Plaza. The reason for this decline was the loss of sales due to the
opening of a new Wal-Mart store approximately nine miles from the West Ridge
Plaza store. The long-term impact of the new Wal-Mart location on the existing
West Ridge Plaza store is uncertain. Wal-Mart's lease at West Ridge Plaza
expires November 12, 2004.

         Interest and other income increased from $45,260 for the year ended
December 31, 1995, to $49,609 for the year ended December 31, 1996. This
increase was due primarily to an increase in miscellaneous fees and charges
received at the properties.

         Interest expense decreased slightly from $1,348,940 for the year ended
December 31, 1995, to $1,344,491 for the year ended December 31, 1996. This
decrease was due to a greater amount of principal being amortized with each
monthly payment on all five mortgage notes.

         Depreciation and amortization decreased from $712,442 for the year
ended December 31, 1995, to $28,606 for the year ended December 31, 1996. This
decrease was due to the

Partnership's adopting Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121 in
1996. This statement, Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and
for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of, requires the Partnership to record a
provision to write-down Partnership properties to fair market value and to
cease recording depreciation expense at the time the properties began to be
marketed for sale. As the properties began to be marketed for sale as of
January 1, 1996, the depreciation expense for 1996 under Standard 121 was $0.
The $28,606 represents amortization expense for 1996, primarily due to various
capital improvements at the properties and tenant upfitting costs.

         Other operating expenses increased $43,488 from $825,255 for the year
ended December 31, 1995, to $868,743 for the year ended December 31, 1996. This
increase was due largely to a $39,000 increase in lease commissions which was
primarily due to new and/or expanded tenants at Southwest Plaza and West Ridge
Plaza. In addition, maintenance and groundskeeping expenses were approximately
$15,000 higher, primarily due to unusually high snow removal costs at the
Southwest Plaza and West Ridge Plaza locations. Aside from these two
categories, other operating expenses of the Partnership for 1996 were generally
in line with or lower than the 1995 figures.

         Write-down of rental property increased from $0 for the year ended
December 31, 1995, to $773,000 for the year ended December 31, 1996. This
write-down was due to the current marketing of the Partnership's properties for
sale and the General Partner's opinion that the net sale prices for Rosewood
Shopping Center and West Ridge Plaza will be less than their respective net
book values. Under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
121, this adjustment is shown as an operating expense.

Inflation

         The Registrant's business is impacted by inflation in several ways.
Inflation permits possible increases in rental rates generally to reflect the
impact of higher operating and replacement costs. Continued inflation should
increase the value of the Registrant's real property over a period of time as
rental revenues and replacement costs continue to increase. The various debt
instruments used in the acquisition of certain of the Registrant's properties
are fixed-rate, with maturities ranging from less than 1 to 15 years.
Therefore, inflation will not affect the Registrant's financing activities
until such time as a refinancing may be desired or is required.

and financial disclosure.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS



To Atlantic Income Properties Limited Partnership:

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Atlantic Income Properties
Limited Partnership (a North Carolina Limited Partnership) as of December 31,
1997 and 1996, and the related statements of operations, partners' equity and
cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1997.
These financial statements and the schedule referred to below are the
responsibility of the Partnership's management. Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on these financial statements and 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 financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of Atlantic Income Properties
Limited Partnership as of December 31, 1997 and 1996, and the results of its
operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended
December 31, 1997, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

As discussed in Notes 1, 2 and 3, the general partner began efforts in 1995 to
sell the rental properties comprising the Partnership. On April 1, 1998, the
Partnership consummated the sale of three of the properties comprising the
Partnership. Also, as discussed in Note 3, the Partnership is in default on the
mortgage note secured by West Ridge Plaza, giving the lender the right to seek
remedies of default such as taking title to the rental property or commencing
foreclosure proceedings against the Partnership.

Our audit was made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial
statements taken as a whole. The schedule listed in the index to financial
statements and financial statement schedule is presented for purposes of
complying with the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and is not a
required part of the basic financial statements. The schedule has been
subjected to the auditing procedures applied in our audit of the basic

respects, the financial data required to be set forth therein in relation to
the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

                 ATLANTIC INCOME PROPERTIES LIMITED PARTNERSHIP

                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                        DECEMBER 31, 1997, 1996 AND 1995




1. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:


ORGANIZATION


Atlantic Income Properties Limited Partnership (a North Carolina Limited
Partnership) (the Partnership) was formed on March 30, 1988, for the purpose of
developing, leasing and investing in commercial real estate properties located
primarily in the southeastern United States. ISC Realty Corporation and
Chadsford II Associates are the general partners. The Partnership will be
terminated upon the occurrence of certain events as defined in the limited
partnership agreement but, in any event, no later than December 31, 2028.

Beneficial Unit Certificates (BUCs) have been sold at $20 per BUC (508,594
units). The initial admission of investors to the Partnership occurred on
August 1, 1988.

Under the terms of the partnership agreement, net loss of the Partnership is
allocated 99% to the limited partners and 1% to the general partners. Net
income of the Partnership is allocated 95% to the limited partners and 5% to
the general partners provided, however, that allocations and distributions to
the general partners are subordinated to a portion of a property management fee
payable to a general partner, as well as allocations and distributions to the
limited partners until the limited partners have received allocations and
distributions equal to a 9% cumulative noncompounded return on each limited
partner's capital. No distributions were made to the general partners during
1997, 1996 or 1995.

During 1995, the general partner began efforts to sell the rental properties
comprising the Partnership (see Note 2). Upon the sale, refinance or
disposition of the partnership property, the partnership agreement specifies
certain allocations of net proceeds and taxable gain or loss from the
transaction.

CASH EQUIVALENTS

The Partnership considers all highly liquid investments with an original
maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

RESTRICTED CASH

Restricted cash represents tenants' security deposits and funds restricted by
the general partner in the amount of $63,680 in 1997 and $39,614 in 1996 for
future property tax assessments and insurance.

RENTAL PROPERTIES


During 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." SFAS No. 121 requires that long-lived
assets and certain identifiable intangibles to be held and used or disposed of
by an entity be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in
circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be
recoverable. The adoption of SFAS No. 121 did not have an impact on the
Company's financial position or results of operations with respect to
long-lived assets held and used. Long-lived assets held for sale continue to be
recorded at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less estimated cost to
sell.

Rental properties are recorded at the lower of carrying amount or fair value
less estimated costs to sell. Accordingly, the Partnership has recorded
provisions to write-down the recorded amounts for Rosewood Shopping Center and
West Ridge Plaza by $1,700,000 and $773,000, in 1997 and 1996, respectively, to
approximate the properties' fair market value less estimated cost to sell, as
estimated by the general partner.

Prior to 1996, depreciation on buildings and building improvements was computed
for financial statement purposes using the straight-line method over the
estimated useful life of 31.5 years. Effective January 1, 1996, depreciation of
rental properties held for sale was discontinued in connection with the
Partnership's efforts to actively pursue a sale of the properties.

DEFERRED LOAN COSTS

Deferred loan costs were incurred in connection with obtaining the mortgage
loans and are amortized over the term of the loans.

SYNDICATION AND OFFERING COSTS

Fees and expenses relating to the sale of limited partnership units paid to
affiliates of the general partners were charged against partners' equity. These
fees included various legal and accounting services, sales commissions and
supervisory fees equal to 12% of the gross proceeds from the offering.

INCOME TAXES

Under current income tax laws, income or loss of partnerships is included in
the income tax returns of the partners. Accordingly, no provision has been made
for federal or state income taxes in the accompanying financial statements.

The tax returns of the Partnership are subject to examination by federal and
state taxing authorities. If such examinations occur and result in changes with
respect to the Partnership's qualification or in changes to partnership income
or loss, the tax liability of the partners would be changed accordingly.

NET INCOME PER BENEFICIAL UNIT CERTIFICATE

Net income per BUC is calculated based on the weighted average number of units
outstanding during the period (508,594 in 1997, 1996 and 1995).



                                      F-8
<PAGE>   25

DISCLOSURES ABOUT FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of
each class of financial instruments for which it is practical to estimate the
value:

         Cash and Cash Equivalents, Rents Receivable and Accounts Payable - The
         carrying amount approximates fair value because of the short term
         nature of these instruments.

         Long-term Debt - In the general partner's opinion, the fair value of
         the Partnership's long-term debt approximates its carrying value.

NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENT

During 1997, the Partnership adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 128, "Earnings per Share," which establishes standards for
computing and presenting earnings per share. The adoption of the pronouncement
did not have any impact on the Partnership's computation of per unit data in
the accompanying financial statements.

USE OF ESTIMATES

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 the disclosure
of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements.
These estimates also affect the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

RECLASSIFICATION

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform with current year
presentation.

2. RENTAL PROPERTIES HELD FOR SALE:

DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTIES

The Partnership acquired Southwest Plaza Shopping Center from an affiliate of
Chadsford II Associates effective August 1, 1988. The property is an 86,601
square foot shopping center located in Roanoke, Virginia. The property was
acquired for a purchase price of $5,380,000, excluding closing costs, which was
partially funded by a $3,700,000 mortgage note payable.

During 1989, the Partnership acquired four properties: (a) Lincoln Center,
Lincolnton, North Carolina, (b) Sangaree Plaza, Berkley County, South Carolina,
(c) Rosewood Shopping Center, Columbia, South Carolina, and (d) West Ridge
Plaza, Bristol, Tennessee.

Lincoln Center was acquired from an affiliate of Chadsford II Associates
effective April 6, 1989. The total facility consists of a 255,468 square foot
shopping center located in Lincolnton, North Carolina, of which approximately
110,000 square feet is owned by the Partnership. The purchase price of
$5,053,000, excluding closing costs, was partially funded by a $3,000,000
mortgage note payable.

<PAGE>   26

Sangaree Plaza was acquired effective May 31, 1989. The property is a 58,948
square foot shopping center located in Berkley County, South Carolina, near
Charleston. The initial purchase price of $2,380,000, excluding closing costs,
was partially funded by the assumption of a $1,715,102 mortgage note payable.
During 1993, construction was completed to expand Sangaree Plaza by
approximately 11,368 square feet. Total cost of the expansion was approximately
$1,200,000.

Rosewood Shopping Center was acquired effective June 5, 1989. The property is a
55,087 square foot shopping center located in Columbia, South Carolina. The
purchase price of $2,250,000, excluding closing costs, was funded entirely from
partners' capital.

West Ridge Plaza was acquired effective September 14, 1989. The property is a
140,985 square foot shopping center located in Bristol, Tennessee. The purchase
price of $6,567,000, excluding closing costs, was partially funded by the
assumption of $5,120,000 of Industrial Revenue Development Bonds. Remaining
funds for the acquisition were obtained from a mortgage note payable of
$1,500,000, which was secured by Rosewood Shopping Center.

PLAN OF DISPOSITION

During 1995, the Partnership's limited partners approved a plan to seek a sale
the Partnership's rental properties. Accordingly, the general partner has
actively marketed the properties for sale during 1996 and 1997. On April 1,
1998, the Partnership consummated the sale of Southwest Plaza Shopping Center,
Lincoln Center and Sangaree Plaza for a combined purchase price of $15,850,000.
Net proceeds resulting from the sale, after repayment of the Partnership's
outstanding indebtedness secured by the properties sold and the payment of
certain closing costs, amounted to approximately $7.3 million. The Partnership
expects to record a gain on the sale of the properties of approximately $2.3
million.

The Partnership continues to pursue the sale of Rosewood Shopping Center and
West Ridge Plaza.

See Note 3 for further discussion regarding the status of the Partnership's
mortgage notes payable secured by the rental properties.

MORTGAGE LOANS PAST MATURITY

Southwest Plaza and Lincoln Center

The Partnership's mortgage loans secured by Southwest Plaza and Lincoln Center
matured in April 1997. Since this date, the Partnership has been operating
under forbearance agreements with the lender whereby the lender has agreed to
forbear exercising any remedies for default through June 15, 1998. Under the
terms of the forbearance agreements, the interest rate on the loans was
increased from 8.4% to 10% and the monthly principal and interest payments were
increased from a combined $66,000 to a combined $71,879. In addition, deferral
interest accrues at 3.4% on the outstanding principal balances of the two
loans, the payment of which will be waived by the lender upon repayment of the
mortgage loans in full on or prior to June 15, 1998. As of December 31, 1997,
deferral interest of $127,635 has been accrued by the lender under this
provision of the forbearance agreements; however, no such interest has been
recorded by the Partnership as of December 31, 1997, due to management's
opinion that it would be successful in repaying or otherwise refinancing the
outstanding loan balances on or before June 15, 1998.

As discussed in Note 2, consummated the sale of Southwest Plaza, Lincoln Center
and Sangaree Plaza subsequent to year-end for a total purchase price of
$15,850,000. Proceeds from the sale were used to repay all outstanding
indebtedness on the mortgage loans secured by these properties.

West Ridge Plaza

The Partnership's mortgage loan secured by West Ridge Plaza matured in 1995.
Pursuant to certain modification agreements and other arrangements, payment of
the outstanding indebtedness due under the mortgage was extended to January 1,
1998, during which time the Partnership has continued to make regular monthly
payments of principal and interest of $38,658. The Partnership is currently
negotiating terms of a new forbearance agreement to extend the forbearance
period.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern
basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and liabilities and
commitments in the ordinary course of business. The general partner intends to
continue to pursue a sale of West Ridge Plaza. If, however, the Partnership is
unsuccessful in consummating a sale of the property or otherwise is unable to
repay the outstanding indebtedness secured by West Ridge Plaza, the lender may
seek remedies of default as provided for under the loan agreement, such as
taking title to the property or commencing foreclosure proceedings against the
Partnership. As such, the carrying value of the West Ridge Plaza rental property
has been reduced to approximate the carrying amount of the indebtedness secured
by the rental property at December 31, 1997.

As specified in the partnership agreement, a general partner earns a partnership
management fee equal to 3% of the annual gross revenue of the Partnership.
Payment of 50% of this fee to the general partner is subordinate to certain
limited partner distributions. Any earned but unpaid partnership management fees
accrue interest at the rate of prime plus 1% and will be paid to the general
partner upon satisfaction of certain conditions contained in the partnership
agreement. At December 31, 1997 and 1996, the Partnership had accrued $479,635
and $493,576 respectively, in earned but unpaid partnership management fees and
interest. These amounts are presented as due to general partner on the
accompanying balance sheets.

                                       1

<PAGE>   2

herein or on any exhibit hereto, which representations and warranties shall be
deemed made by Seller to Purchaser also as of the Closing Date and shall
survive the Closing, as follows:

               (a)    At the Closing, Seller will have and will convey to 
Purchaser good, indefeasible and marketable fee simple title to each Property,
free and clear of all mortgages, liens, encumbrances, restrictions,
rights-of-way, easements, judgments and other matters affecting title, except
the following matters (hereafter called the "Permitted Exceptions"), provided
they do not interfere with the use of the Property as a shopping center or the
marketability of title: (i) zoning ordinances affecting the Property; (ii)
general utility easements of record; (iii) subdivision restrictions of record;
(iv) current city, state and county ad valorem property and sanitary taxes not
yet due and payable; and (v) leases, other easements, restrictions and
encumbrances specified in this Contract or any exhibit hereto or approved by
Purchaser pursuant to Section 4.01 hereof. Seller shall not take any action
which will adversely affect title to the Properties.

               (b)    EXHIBIT "C" (the "Lease Exhibit") attached hereto is a 
complete and correct list in all material respects of all leases, tenancies,
licenses and other rights of occupancy or use for any portion of the Properties
in effect on the date of this Contract (herein collectively referred to as the
"Tenant Leases"). There are no other leases, tenancies, licenses or other
rights of occupancy affecting the Properties as of the date of this Contract.
Except as set forth in the Lease Exhibit, the rentals and other charges therein
set forth are the actual rentals and other charges presently being collected by
Seller or its agents, and none of the rents or other amounts payable hereunder
have been or shall be assigned, pledged or encumbered other than to the holder
of the mortgages as collateral security therefor, and no rents have been
prepaid for more than one month in advance. Except as set forth in the Lease
Exhibit, to the best of Seller's knowledge, all Tenant Leases are in full force
and effect, and not in default. Except as set forth in the Lease Exhibit, no
brokerage commission is due and unpaid in connection with any Tenant Lease or
renewal thereof and all such commissions and fees, including those shown on the
Lease Exhibit, shall be paid, cashed out and discharged in full by Seller at or
prior to Closing. All documentary stamp tax required for the Tenant Leases has
been paid, or, if not paid, Purchaser shall receive a credit for same at
closing. Except for new leases described in the following paragraph and
consented to by Purchaser, no tenant has been granted any rent-free occupancy
or is entitled to any future rental concessions, credits or reimbursements. All
decorating, installation, alteration or repair work which Seller may be
obligated to perform for any tenant has been performed or will be performed
prior to the Closing Date at the expense of Seller. Except for new leases
described in the following paragraph and consented to by Purchaser, Seller has
paid or will pay prior to the Closing Date the cost and expense of all tenant
improvements and allowances required by the Tenant Leases.

     No new leases shall be entered into between now and the Closing without
Purchaser's prior consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.
All leases entered into by Seller between the date hereof and the Closing Date
shall be deemed to be included in the term "Tenant Leases" as it hereinafter
appears.

               (c)    There are no maintenance, management or other contracts 
or agreements affecting the Properties except those which may be terminated on
thirty (30) days' notice or less, and Seller shall disclose and provide copies
of all contracts or agreements affecting the Properties to Purchaser during the
Inspection Period. Between the date hereof and Closing, Seller shall not enter



                                       2
<PAGE>   3

into any maintenance, management or other contracts which are not terminable on
thirty (30) days' notice, and Seller shall disclose any such contract(s) to
Purchaser.

               (d)    The improvements on the Properties are to be conveyed in 
an "As Is" condition without warranty by Seller as to their condition, and
Seller's responsibility in connection with the foregoing shall cease at
Closing.

               (e)    No tenant or other occupant under any of the Tenant 
Leases and no other person, firm, corporation or other entity has any right or
option to acquire a Property or any portion thereof or to require expansion of
any of the leased premises except as set forth in the Tenant Leases.

               (f)    Seller has received no written notice that any zoning, 
building, environmental or other law, ordinance, code, order or regulation is
or will be violated by the continued maintenance, operation or use as a
shopping center of any buildings, improvements or structures presently erected
on a Property or by the continued maintenance, operation or use of parking
areas.

               (g)    Subsequent to the execution of this Contract and until 
the Closing, Seller, at its sole cost and expense, at its sole but reasonable
discretion will make all repairs and replacements, structural and
nonstructural, ordinary and extraordinary, required with respect to any portion
of a Property and will operate and maintain the Properties in the normal
manner. Subject to Article VI, Seller shall deliver the Properties at Closing
in substantially the same condition or better than existed at the end of the
Inspection Period.

               (b)    There is no action, suit or proceeding pending or, to the 
knowledge of Seller, threatened against or materially affecting the Properties
or any portion thereof or any of the Tenant Leases or relating to or arising
out of the ownership or operation of the Properties, in any court or before or
by any federal, state, county or municipal department, commission, board,
bureau or agency or other governmental instrumentality.

               (i)    Prior to the Closing, Seller (i) will give to Purchaser, 
its attorneys, accountants, engineers and other representatives, during normal
business hours and as often as may be reasonably requested, full access to any
and all parts of the Properties and to all books, records, tenant leases and
files in Seller's possession relating to the Properties, and (ii) will furnish
to Purchaser all information in Seller's possession concerning the Properties
which Purchaser, its attorneys, accountants, engineers or other representatives
shall reasonably request.

               (j)    There is no pending condemnation or similar proceeding or 
assessment affecting the Properties, or any part thereof, nor to the best
knowledge and belief of Seller, is any such proceeding or assessment
contemplated or threatened by any governmental authority.

               (k)    The various items of Personal Property included with this 
sale, if any, are (or at Closing will be) owned by Seller free and clear of all
liens.

               (1)    Seller has received no written notice of any default or 
breach under any of the covenants, conditions, restrictions, rights-of-way or
easements affecting the Properties or any portion



                                       3
<PAGE>   4

thereof which are to be performed or complied with by the owner of the
Properties and which are material to this Contract.

               (m)    To the best of Seller's knowledge, each Property has been 
fully assessed by taxing authorities as a completed project. To the best of
Seller's knowledge, no portion of the Properties is affected by any special
assessments, whether or not a lien thereon, and no such assessment has been
proposed to Seller's knowledge. There is no proceeding pending for the
reduction of the assessed valuation of any portion of the Properties, and no
such proceeding will be instituted by Seller prior to the Closing without the
prior written consent of Purchaser.

               (n)    There is no agreement requiring Seller to make any 
contribution, in the form of dues or otherwise, to a merchants' or tenants'
association or similar organization, or to any tenant, licensee or other
occupancy of any portion of the Properties for advertising or promotion of the
Properties.

               (o)    Except to the extent disclosed in any environmental audit 
delivered by Seller to Purchaser or obtained by Purchaser, Seller has received
no written notice from any governmental agency having jurisdiction and, to the
best of Seller's knowledge, the Properties are free from the presence and/or
harmful effects of any asbestos, toxic, or hazardous substances as defined by
applicable federal, state, or local laws.

                                   ARTICLE IV
                     CONDITIONS TO PURCHASER'S OBLIGATIONS

     4.01.     The obligation of Purchaser hereunder to purchase the Properties 
from Seller is subject to the satisfaction, as of the Closing, of each of the
following conditions (any of which may be waived in whole or in part by
Purchaser at or prior to the Closing):

               (a)    Purchaser, at Purchaser's sole cost and expense, shall 
cause title to be examined and a title company acceptable to Purchaser to issue
and deliver to Purchaser a preliminary title report and commitment for an
extended-coverage Owner's policy in the amount of the Purchase Price (the
"Title Report") accompanied by copies of all recorded documents relating to
liens, easements, rights-of-way, etc., affecting the Properties. Purchaser
shall give Seller written notice before the later of the expiration of the
Inspection Period or the Survey Date (as hereinafter defined) of any objections
to Seller's title as disclosed therein, provided that failure to object to a
lien shall not constitute a waiver of Seller's obligations to satisfy such
lien. Seller shall have the obligation to remove any liens or encumbrances
which are uncontested and may be removed solely by the payment of money. If
there are liens or encumbrances which cannot be removed in accordance with the
terms hereof, Purchaser shall have the option of terminating this Contract, in
which event it shall thereupon become null and void for all purposes, and the
Earnest Money shall be forthwith returned by Escrow Agent to Purchaser;
otherwise, said condition shall be deemed to be acceptable, and any objection
thereto shall be deemed to have been waived for all purposes. Seller shall not
cause or permit an adverse change in the condition of title after the date
hereof.

               (b)    Seller, at its sole cost and expense, shall obtain a 
current ALTA as-built



                                       4
<PAGE>   5

survey of each Property, prepared by a land surveyor licensed in the stab which
the Property located. The survey shall comply with ALTA requirements and shall
be staked on the ground, and the plat shall show the location of all
improvements, highways, streets, roads, railroads, rivers, creeks or other
water courses, fences, easements and rights-of-way on or adjacent to the
Property, if any, and shall contain the surveyor's certification that there are
no encroachments on the Property or onto adjacent lands from the Property and
shall set forth the number of acres comprising the Property. The various
parcels or tracts comprising the Property shall be contiguous. The plat shall
contain a certificate of the surveyor that the Property is not in a flood hazard
area, a flood zone, flood plain or a floodway, or shall locate same thereon.
All easements shall be located on the plat and referenced by recording data.

               Purchaser will have until the later of the expiration of the 
Inspection Period or five (5) business days following receipt of the survey
(the "Survey Date") to review and approve same. If the survey discloses (i) any
encroachments, (ii) any problems with access, ingress or egress, (iii) any
variations in boundary lines, (iv) the non-contiguity of any parcels of land
comprising the Property or (v) any easements, rights-of-way or other interests
in the Property, which are other than the Permitted Exceptions and which
adversely affects the Property, then Purchaser shall give Seller written notice
of such fact no later than the Survey Date. Seller may, if it so chooses,
promptly undertake to eliminate or modify all such unacceptable portions to the
reasonable satisfaction of Purchaser. If Seller chooses not or is unable to do
so within ten (10) days after receipt of written notice, Purchaser may
terminate this Contract, and the Contract shall thereupon be null and void for
all purposes, and the Earnest Money shall be forthwith returned by the Escrow
Agent to Purchaser. Purchaser's failure to give Seller such written notice
shall be deemed to be Purchaser's acceptance of the survey.

               (c)    Seller shall deliver to Purchaser (and Purchaser's 
lender, if any) at least five (5) business days prior to Closing an estoppel
letter ("Estoppel Letter") from (i) the "Major Tenants" set forth on the
attached EXHIBIT "D", ALL in form reasonably satisfactory to Purchaser; and
(ii) all of the other Tenants (excluding Harris Teeter with respect to Southwest
Plaza) (the "Other Tenants") substantially in the form set forth on the
attached EXHIBIT "E" confirming the status of the applicable Lease and any
amendments, the amount of rent at the last payment made, the amount of any
security deposit, that there have been no prepayments of rent, that the
Landlord is not in default under the Lease and the Tenant has no rights to set
off, and such other matters as Purchaser may reasonably request. If Seller,
through no fault of its own, is unable, after reasonable effort, to obtain the
Estoppel Letters, Seller shall not be deemed to have breached this Contract,
but Purchaser shall have the option of terminating this Contract and obtaining
a refund of all Earnest Money as its sole remedy. Notwithstanding anything
herein to the contrary, this condition shall be deemed satisfied if the
Estoppel Letters are timely signed and delivered by at least ninety percent
(90%) of the Other Tenants of each Property (based on square footage ratios
of the applicable Property, excluding space occupied by the Major Tenants and
excluding Harris Teeter with respect to Southwest Plaza) and if Seller
certifies and warrants the correctness of the Estoppel Letters of the Other
Tenants who failed to sign Estoppel Letters.

               (d)    Seller shall have performed, observed and complied with 
all of the covenants, agreements and conditions required by this Contract to be
performed, observed and complied with



                                       5
<PAGE>   6

by it prior to or as of the Closing.

               (e)    All of the representations and warranties of Seller set 
forth in this Contract and the matters set forth in the tenant estoppel letters
shall be true, to the best of Seller's knowledge, at and as of the Closing in
all material respects as though such representations and warranties and the
statements contained in this Contract and said letters were made at and as of
the Closing.

               (f)    Seller shall not have made an assignment for the benefit 
of creditors or admitted in writing its inability to pay its debts as they
mature or been adjudicated as bankrupt or filed a petition in voluntary
bankruptcy or a petition or answer seeking reorganization or an arrangement
with creditors under the federal bankruptcy law or any other similar law or
statute of the United States or any state, and no such petition shall have been
filed against it.

               (g)    All instruments and documents required on Seller's part 
to effectuate this Contract and the transactions contemplated herein shall be
satisfactory in all reasonable respects to Purchaser and its attorneys.

               (h)    Harris Teeter shall have terminated its Lease at 
Southwest Plaza.

                                   ARTICLE V
                                    CLOSING

     5.01.     The consummation of the sale and purchase of the Property 
pursuant to this Contract (the "Closing") shall occur on (or, at Purchaser's
option, before) the Closing Date. If the Closing Date falls on a Saturday,
Sunday, or legal holiday it shall be extended to the next following business

                    (viii)    A certificate of Seller, dated the Closing Date,

                                       7
<PAGE>   8

Date, except as may be approved by Purchaser and set forth in such certificate;
provided, however, that Purchaser's right to bring any claim against Seller as
a result of such representations and warranties will expire one (1) year after
the Closing; and

                      (xvi)     All other documents reasonably necessary to 
effectuate the transaction.

               Upon compliance with the above, Purchaser shall pay the Purchase 
Price by wire transfer via the Federal Reserve System (plus or minus the net
adjustments computed hereunder), payable to the order of Seller and/or such
other order as Seller shall have directed by written notice to Purchaser.

     5.02.     The following shall be adjusted between Seller and Purchaser and 
shall be prorated on a per diem basis as of midnight of the day preceding the
Closing Date as to each Property:

               (a)    Real estate and personal property taxes shall be adjusted 
between Seller and Purchaser on the basis of the fiscal year to which they are
applicable. Tax reimbursements from Tenants shall, upon receipt, be equitably
prorated and reimbursed to Seller. Purchaser shall make reasonable efforts to
collect promptly tax reimbursements from the Tenants.

               If on the Closing Date, the Property or any part thereof shall 
have been affected by or shall be subject to any special tax or assessment,
then, whether or not any such tax or assessment is then a lien on the Property
or any portion thereof or is payable to or on the Closing Date, all unpaid
installments of any such tax or assessment (including those which are to become
due and payable after the Closing shall be deemed to be due and payable prior
to Closing and shall not be apportioned between Seller and Purchaser, but shall
be paid and discharged by Seller at Closing). Provided, however, if such
special assessment is for future improvements Seller may, without liability for
default hereunder, elect not to pay same in which event Purchaser shall have
the option of terminating this Contract (and receiving a refund of the Earnest
Money) or paying such special assessment.

               (b)    Water rates and sewer charges or rentals (if not 
metered).

               (c)    Utility charges (including, but not limited to, water 
rates and sewer charges or rentals if metered) shall not be apportioned, but
Seller shall cause all utility meters to be read not more than two (2) days
before Closing Date, and Seller agrees to pay promptly after receipt all
utility bills and charges accruing up to and including the day preceding the
Closing Date. If utility deposits are assigned to Purchaser, Seller shall
receive a credit therefor.

               (d)    Rents and other fixed charges payable and collected under 
the Tenant Leases. At the Closing, Seller shall furnish to Purchaser a complete
and correct schedule of all rents and other fixed charges which are then due
and payable but which have not been paid. All such unpaid rents and other
charges for the calendar month in which the Closing occurs and for the calendar
month prior to the calendar month in which the Closing occurs shall be, if
collected, received by Purchaser as trustee for Seller and shall be remitted by
Purchaser to Seller. Purchaser, however, shall have no obligation to Seller to
collect any such unpaid rents or other charges, and all rents and



                                       8
<PAGE>   9

other charges collected shall be first applied to current rents and charges
due. Percentage rents, if any, shall be equitably prorated upon receipt based
upon the number of days during the applicable lease year which Seller owned the
Property and the number of days which Purchaser owned the Property. Insurance
reimbursements, CAM charges and the like which are paid after Closing and which
relate to periods prior to Closing shall be paid by Purchaser to Seller
promptly upon receipt by Purchaser. Purchaser shall reasonably cooperate with
Seller in its efforts, including litigation, to collect past-due rents
(including percentage rents, insurance and tax reimbursements, CAM charges and
the like) provided that, in Purchaser's reasonable discretion such cooperation
shall not jeopardize Purchaser's relationship with tenant(s) and further
provided that Purchaser shall not be obligated to incur any expenses in
connection herewith.

     5.03.     Seller shall give Purchaser a credit for the aggregate amount of 
tenant security deposits held by Seller or otherwise outstanding under the
Tenant Leases.

     5.04.     Seller shall pay for its own attorneys' fees, survey costs, and 
deed stamps, transfer or other similar taxes or fees for recording based in
whole or in part upon the consideration for or value of each Property, and
one-half of any escrow fees. Purchaser shall pay for the recording of the deed,
its own attorneys' fees, title examination, title insurance premiums, and
one-half of any escrow fees.

     5.05.     If the Seller is a "Foreign Person" (as defined in Section 1445 
of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended, and the regulations promulgated
thereunder), or if Seller fails to deliver the FIRPTA affidavit hereinbefore
mentioned, or if Purchaser has actual knowledge that such affidavit is false,
Purchaser shall deduct and withhold from the Purchase Price an amount equal to
ten percent (10%) of the Purchase Price as required by the Internal Revenue
Code. Purchaser shall remit such amount to the Internal Revenue Service.

     5.06.     If applicable state law requires that any of Seller's proceeds 
be withheld, then same shall be withheld according to law.

                                   ARTICLE VI
                DESTRUCTION OR DAMAGE PRIOR TO THE CLOSING DATE

     6.01.     Seller shall bear the risk of all loss, destruction or damage to 
the Properties or any portion thereof from any and all causes whatsoever to and
including the Closing Date.

     6.02.     If at any time prior to the Closing Date any portion of the 
Properties is destroyed or damaged as a result of fire or any other cause
whatsoever, Seller shall promptly give notice thereof to Purchaser. The rights
and obligations of the parties by reason of such destruction or damage shall be
as follows:

               (a)    If the "cost of repair and restoration" (which term is 
hereinafter defined) necessitated by such destruction or damage shall be Fifty
Thousand Dollars ($50,000.00) or less (per Property), the obligations hereunder
of the parties shall not be affected by such destruction or damage, and
Purchaser shall accept title to the Property in its destroyed or damaged
condition provided that: (i) at the Closing, Seller shall assign to Purchaser
all of Seller's right, title and interest



                                       9
<PAGE>   10

in and to the proceeds of any insurance carried by Seller and payable with
respect to such destruction or damage and shall pay to Purchaser the amount of
the "deductible" under the policy; and (ii) the Purchase Price shall be reduced
by the amount, if any, by which the cost of repair and restoration exceeds the
amount of such proceeds available (and the amount of the deductible) for repair
or restoration (less the actual cost of any repairs or restoration performed by
Seller prior to the Closing at Purchaser's request).

               (b)    If the cost of repair and restoration necessitated by 
such destruction or damage shall exceed Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000.00) or
if such destruction or damage, even if less than Fifty Thousand Dollars
($50,000.00), results in the termination of a major or credit tenant lease, or
two or more non-credit tenant leases, Purchaser shall have the option either
(i) to accept title to the Property in its destroyed or damaged condition in
accordance with and subject to the provisions of Section 6.02(a)(i) above, or
(ii) to cancel this Contract by giving notice to that effect to Seller and to
the title company not later than ten (10) days after the cost of repair and
restoration is determined (as provided in Section 6.03), and upon the giving of
such notice by Purchaser, this Contract shall be null and void and the parties
shall have no further obligation or liability hereunder except that the Earnest
Money shall be returned to Purchaser.

     6.03.     As used in Section 6.02, the term "cost of repair and 
restoration" shall mean that amount which is the average of (a) a bona fide
estimate of the actual cost of repair and restoration obtained by Seller within
ten (10) days after such destruction or damage from a reputable contractor
regularly doing business in or near the area in which the Property is located;
and (b) a bona fide estimate of the actual cost of repair and restoration
obtained by Purchaser within ten (10) days after such destruction or damage
from a reputable contractor regularly doing business in or near the area in
which the Property is located.

                                  ARTICLE VII
                               INSPECTION PERIOD

     7.01.     During the Inspection Period Purchaser shall be permitted to 
enter the Properties and to inspect and evaluate the Properties, to conduct
studies thereon, and to interview Tenants. If Purchaser determines for any
reason that a Property is not suitable for Purchaser's purposes Purchaser may
allow this Contract to terminate, however, such termination shall be as to all
Properties. If Purchaser desires to continue this Contract beyond the
Inspection Period it shall give written notice of same to Seller within the
next business day following the end of the Inspection Period. During the
Inspection Period Seller shall promptly provide Purchaser with information and
documentation (to the extent same is reasonably available) requested by
Purchaser to facilitate its evaluation of the Property. Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, Purchaser may extend the Inspection Period for
an additional thirty (30) days for the sole purpose of resolving the
retenanting of the Harris Teeter space at Southwest Plaza, provided that
Purchaser gives written notice of such extension prior to the expiration of the
initial Inspection Period. The said written notice shall be accompanied by
reasonable written evidence from Harris Teeter of its intention to terminate
its leasehold pursuant to terms acceptable to Purchaser, which terms must be
set forth in such writing (such termination being conditioned on the Closing
unless also pursuant to terms acceptable to Seller).

                                  ARTICLE VIII
                                ESCROW DEPOSIT

     8.01.     As security for the obligations of Purchaser and subject to the 
terms hereof, Purchaser shall cause a letter of credit in the amount of One
Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000.00) to be issued in favor of Escrow Agent
with an expiration date of thirty (30) days past the last possible Closing
Date, which letter of credit shall constitute the "Earnest Money" hereunder.
Said letter of credit will be issued by a national banking association and
payable upon presentation in the city where Escrow Agent is located and contain
no conditions for payment other than presentation. Upon the execution hereof
Purchaser shall deposit the Earnest Money with Escrow Agent. At Closing, or in
the event Purchaser has the right to and elects to terminate this Contract or
allows same to terminate as provided herein, Escrow Agent shall return the
Earnest Money upon receipt of notice of such termination. If this Contract has
not been terminated as aforesaid and if Purchaser then fails to consummate the
purchase of the Properties, the conditions of Purchaser's obligations set forth
in this Contract having been satisfied and Purchaser being in default, Escrow
Agent shall draw upon the Earnest Money and convert same to cash and
immediately disburse same to Seller and if there is a dispute as to entitlement
Escrow Agent shall deposit said One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($ 100,000.00)
into an FDIC insured interest bearing money market account and shall hold said
sum, in trust, pending resolution of the dispute and subject to the terms and
conditions set forth on the attached EXHIBIT "F". Notwithstanding anything in
this Contract to the contrary, if Escrow Agent receives notice of termination
from Purchaser or Purchaser's attorneys, Gottlieb & Smith, P.A., prior to the
end of the Inspection Period, Escrow Agent shall be and is hereby directed by
Seller to return the Earnest Money to Purchaser.

                                   ARTICLE IX
                                BREACH BY SELLER

     9.01.     In the event Seller shall fail to perform fully and timely any 
of its obligations hereunder or shall fail to consummate the sale of the
Properties for any reason, except Purchaser's default, Purchaser may: (a)
enforce specific performance of this Contract, including attorneys' fees, and
(b) pending any action contemplated herein, obtain a refund of the Earnest
Money and (c) seek and recover damages from Seller including attorneys' fees
and costs; subject, however to the limitation set forth in Section 5.01 (b)(xv)
hereof.

                                   ARTICLE X
                              BREACH BY PURCHASER

     10.01.    In the event Purchaser shall fail to consummate the purchase of 
the Properties, the conditions to Purchaser's obligations set forth in Article
IV having been satisfied and Purchaser being in default and Seller not being in
default herein, and Seller having complied with all conditions herein, Seller
shall have the right to receive the Earnest Money and accrued interest from
Escrow Agent, such sum being agreed upon as liquidated damages for the failure
of Purchaser to perform the duties, liabilities and obligations imposed upon it
by the terms and provisions of this Contract, and Seller agrees to accept and
take said cash payment as total damages and as Seller's sole remedy in such
event. It is agreed that Seller's damage would be difficult to ascertain and
the Earnest



                                       11
<PAGE>   12

Money then on deposit with Escrow Agent constitutes a reasonable forecast 
thereof and is intended 4, not as a penalty but as full liquidated damages.

                                   ARTICLE XI
                            REAL ESTATE COMMISSIONS

     11.01.    Seller shall pay a real estate commission to Berkeley Capital 
pursuant to separate agreement, which commission shall be due and payable at
Closing. Each party represents and warrants to the other that it has not dealt
with any other real estate brokers who may claim a fee or commission in
connection with the transactions contemplated hereby as a result of such
party's acts, and shall indemnify and hold the other harmless against any such
claim made by any other broker claiming by, through or under such party. This
provision shall survive the Closing.

                                  ARTICLE XII
                                 MISCELLANEOUS

     12.01.    This Contract may be assigned by Purchaser to an entity of which
Purchaser is a principal, shareholder, officer, partner, or member, provided
that Purchaser's assignee shall assume all Purchaser's liabilities, obligations
and duties hereunder. On delivery to Seller of an instrument in writing whereby
the assignee assumes all of the provisions of this Contract to be performed by
Purchaser, then, in such event, Purchaser shall be released and discharged of
all further liability hereunder.

     12.02.    Any notices, requests, or other communications required or 
permitted to be given hereunder shall be in writing and shall be either (i)
delivered by hand, (ii) mailed by United States registered mail, return receipt
requested, postage prepaid, (iii) sent by a reputable, national overnight
delivery service (e.g., Federal Express, Airborne, etc.), or (iv) sent by
facsimile (with the original being sent by one of the other permitted means or
by regular United States mail) and addressed to each party at the applicable
address set forth herein. Any such notice, request, or other communication
shall be considered given or delivered, as the case may be, on the date of hand
delivery (if delivered by hand), on the third (3rd) day following deposit in
the United States mail (if sent by United States registered mail), on the next
business day following deposit with an overnight delivery service with
instructions to deliver on the next day or on the next business day (if sent by
overnight delivery service), or on the day sent by facsimile (if sent by
facsimile, provided the original is sent by one of the other permitted means as
provided in this paragraph or by regular United States mail). However, the time
period within which a response to any notice or request must be given, if any,
shall commence to run from the date of actual receipt of such notice, request,
or other communication by the addressee thereof Rejection or other refusal to
accept or inability to deliver because of a changed address of which no notice
was given shall be deemed to be receipt of the notice, request, or other
communication. By giving a least five (5) days prior written notice thereof,
any party hereto may, from time to time and at any time, change its mailing
address hereunder.

                                Escrow Conditions

     1. In performing any of its duties hereunder, Escrow Agent shall not incur
any liability to anyone for any damages, losses, or expenses, including, without
limitation, (i) any action taken or omitted upon advice of its legal counsel
given with respect to any questions relating to the duties and responsibilities
of Escrow Agent under this agreement; or (ii) any action taken or omitted in
reliance upon any instrument, including any written notice or instruction
provided for in this agreement. Escrow Agent may rely upon any instrument,
pursuant to clause (ii) in the preceding sentence, as being duly executed,

signatures.

     2. Notwithstanding anything in this agreement to the contrary, in the event
of a dispute between Seller and Purchaser arising prior to or at the time of the
delivery or other disposition of the Earnest Money by Escrow Agent pursuant
hereto, which dispute shall be sufficient, in the sole discretion of Escrow
Agent, to justify its doing so, Escrow Agent shall be entitled to tender the
Earnest Money into the registry or custody of any court of competent
jurisdiction, together with such legal pleadings as it may deem appropriate, and
thereupon Escrow Agent shall be discharged from all further duties and
liabilities under this agreement. Any such legal action may be brought in such
court as Escrow Agent shall determine to have jurisdiction thereof. Escrow
Agent's determination of whether a dispute exists between Seller and Purchaser
shall be binding and conclusive upon all parties hereto, notwithstanding any
contention that no dispute exists. All costs and expenses incurred by Escrow
Agent in taking any action pursuant to this paragraph shall be covered by and
paid pursuant to the indemnification of Escrow Agent contained in the following
paragraph.

     3. Purchaser and Seller shall, and do hereby, jointly and severally

of: (i ) any and all demands, judgments, expenses, costs, losses, injuries, or
claims of any kind whatsoever whether existing on the date hereof or hereafter
arising, incurred by Escrow Agent by reason of, from, or in connection with this
agreement or any action taken or not taken by Escrow Agent under or in
connection with this agreement unless such act or failure to act constituted
gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of Escrow Agent; and (ii) any
and all counsel fees, expenses, disbursements of counsel, amounts of judgments,
demands, assessments, costs, fines, or penalties, and amounts paid in compromise
or settlement, incurred or sustained by Escrow Agent by reason of, in connection
with, or as a result of any claim, demand, action, suit, investigation, or
proceeding (or any appeal thereof or relating thereto or other review thereof)
incident to the matters covered by the immediately preceding clause (i).

     4. If Escrow Agent shall notify Seller and Purchaser of its desire to be
relieved of any further duties and liabilities hereunder, then Escrow Agent
shall deliver the Earnest Money to a successor escrow agent designated by Seller
and Purchaser. If Seller and Purchaser shall fail to agree upon and designate a
successor escrow agent within ten ( 10) days after having been requested by
Escrow Agent to do so, then Escrow Agent shall in its discretion designate the
successor escrow agent. The successor escrow agent designated by Seller and
Purchaser or by Escrow Agent, as the


<PAGE>   41


case may be, shall be a bank or trust company having trust powers in good
standing and located in Columbia, South Carolina, and shall agree to be bound by
all the terms and conditions of this agreement. Immediately upon agreement by
the successor escrow agent to be bound by all the terms and conditions of this
agreement, the original Escrow Agent shall be relieved of any and all duties and
liabilities under or in connection with this agreement; provided, however, that
no successor escrow agent shall assume any liability for the acts or omissions
of its predecessor escrow agent(s) hereunder.

     5. The agency created in Escrow Agent hereby is coupled with an interest of
Seller and Purchaser and shall be binding upon and enforceable against the
respective heirs, successors, legal representatives and assigns of Seller and
Purchaser. This escrow shall not be revoked or terminated by reason of the
death, incompetency, dissolution, or liquidation of Seller or Purchaser, but
shall continue to be binding upon and enforceable against the respective heirs,
successors, legal representatives and assigns of Seller and Purchaser in the
manner provided herein. In the event of the death, incompetency, dissolution, or
liquidation of Seller or Purchaser, Escrow Agent may rely and act upon any
notices permitted or required to be given hereunder from any person, firm,
partnership, or corporation believed by Escrow Agent in good faith to be the
heir, successor, legal representative or assign of such dissolved or liquidated
party.

Escrow Agent hereunder is as follows:
