NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note A -- Financial Statements Preparation:
The interim financial statements are unaudited but reflect all
adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary to a fair
statement of the results for the interim periods presented. These
adjustments consist primarily of normal recurring accruals. The interim
financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited
financial statements contained in the 1995 Annual Report. The results
of operations for interim periods will not necessarily be indicative of
the operating results for the fiscal year. Certain amounts have been
reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.
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 revenue and expenses
during the reporting period. Actual results can differ from those
estimates.
Distributions and earnings per unit of limited partnership interest
are based on the total amounts distributed and allocated to limited
partners divided by the number of units outstanding during the period
(119,215 for the three and six months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995).
Note B -_ Notes Payable:
During 1996, the Partnership borrowed $1,274,000 on its bank note in
order to make final payments on the seller's notes that originated with
the purchase of certain northern California storage centers.
PART I ITEM 2 MANAGEMENTS' DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
Operating Results. The Partnership's earnings from operations
for the three and six months ended June 30, 1996 increased $90,200
and $213,000 respectively, over the same periods in 1995. Rental
revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 1996 also
increased $76,000 and $162,200 over the same periods last year.
The increase resulted primarily from a 5% increase in the average
rental rate per square foot. During the month of March, the
Partnership lost its only tenant in the Castro Valley office
building representing approximately $5,000 per month in rent.
Management is currently making efforts to fill the office space.
Due in part to this office space vacancy, average occupancies
decreased eight percentage points from 90% at June 30,1995 to 82%
at June 30, 1996.
Total expenses decreased $14,200 and $50,800 for the three and
six months ended June 30, 1996, respectively, compared to the same
periods in 1995. The majority of this decrease is due to the drop
in amortization expense which does not affect the Partnership's
cash flow. Operating and administration expenses increased $43,400
and $ 52,300 for the three and six months ended June 30, 1996,
respectively, compared to the same periods in 1995 due to 1) an
increase in personnel costs associated with additional hours worked
by store managers and increased salaries, 2) an increase in
marketing costs in the Atlanta market reflecting increased yellow
page advertisement and 3) an increase in the Georgia state taxes.
Additionally, real estate taxes increased $8,600 and $17,000 for
the three and six months ended June 30, 1996, respectively, mainly
due to a tax assessment increase at the Gilbert storage center.
Subsequent to quarter end, a fire at the Tracy storage center
completely burned four units and effected approximately seventeen
additional units. All costs related to the fire are expected to be
covered under insurance after a $10,000 deductible.
Cash Activities. Capital improvements for the six months ended
June 30, 1996 totaled $194,600 which largely represents conversion
of existing storage units to climate controlled units at the Dobson
Ranch storage center, which will increase the revenue potential of
the property.
During 1996, the Partnership borrowed $1,274,000 on its bank note
in order to make final payments on the seller's notes that
originated with the purchase of certain northern California storage
centers.
On July 1, 1996, the Partnership entered into a merger
agreement with Shurgard Storage Centers, Inc. (SSCI) and two
affiliated Partnerships whereby: A) SSCI would commence a cash
tender offer for up to 52,000 Units of the Partnership and B)
following completion of the tender offer, the Partnership would
seek the requisite approval by the limited partners to merge into
SSCI. Upon consummation of the merger all limited partners would
receive stock in SSCI.
In connection with this transaction, the Partnership is
expected to incur approximately $930,100 in costs. As of June 30,
1996, transaction costs totaling approximately $420,900 have been
posted as expenses on the Partnership's books (of which
approximately $125,000 has already been paid). In the event that
the merger is not consummated, the Partnership will bear certain
expenses as defined in the merger agreement.
Due to this transaction, Partnership distributions have been
temporarily suspended. Upon completion of the merger, the
Partnership will make a final cash distribution equal to the
amount, if any, by which the Partnership's closing net asset value
exceeds its net asset value as defined in the merger agreement.
This distribution will be received only by those who were partners
immediately prior to the merger.
PART II, ITEM 1 LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
On July 16, 1996, Irving and Roberta B. Schuman filed a
purported class and derivative action complaint in the Superior
Court of the State of Washington, King County naming the Shurgard
REIT, the General Partner of the Partnership, and certain other
individual and entities as defendants and the Partnership as a
nominal defendant.
In the complaint, the plaintiffs asserted claims for breach of
fiduciary duty, aiding and abetting a breach of fiduciary duty,
breach of contract and fraud against each of the defendants. The
plaintiffs seek monetary damages and equitable relief, including an
order enjoining the consummation of the Shurgard REIT's tender
offer for units of the Partnership (the Offer), or alternatively,
an order requiring the defendants to issue disclosures to correct
allegedly false and misleading statements and omissions of material
facts in all documents prepared, filed with the SEC, issued or
disseminated to the Limited Partners of the Partnership by the
defendants in connection with the Offer. The defendants believe
the lawsuit is without merit and intend to vigorously defend it.
