NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
September 30, 1998
(Unaudited)
1. The Partnership and Basis of Presentation
Net 2 L. P. (the "Partnership") was formed as a limited partnership on
November 9, 1988, under the laws of the State of Delaware to invest in
real estate properties or interests therein net leased to corporations
or other entities.
As of September 30, 1998, the Partnership has a total of 477,167 Units
issued and outstanding held by approximately 2,100 limited partners.
The unaudited financial statements reflect all adjustments that are, in
the opinion of the General Partner, necessary to a fair statement of
the results for the interim period presented. For a more complete
understanding of the Partnership's financial position and accounting
policies, reference is made to the financial statements previously
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission with the
Partnership's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December
31, 1997.
Management of the partnership has made a number of estimates and
assumptions relating to the reporting of assets and liabilities and the
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities to prepare these
financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Net income per Unit amounts were calculated by using the weighted
average number of Units outstanding for each period and allocating 98%
of the income attributable for that period to the Limited Partners. The
weighted average number of Units outstanding was 477,167 for all the
periods presented.
Certain amounts included in the prior years' financial statements have
been reclassified to conform with the current years' presentation.
In June 1997, SFAS No. 130,"Reporting Comprehensive Income", and SFAS
No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related
Information," were issued. SFAS No. 130 established standards for
reporting and displaying comprehensive income and its components in a
financial statement that is displayed with the same prominence as other
financial statements. Reclassification of financial statements for
earlier periods, provided for comparative purposes, is required. The
statement also requires the accumulated balance of other comprehensive
income to be displayed separately from retained earnings and additional
paid-in capital in equity section of the balance sheet. SFAS No. 131
establishes standards for reporting information about operating
segments in annual and interim financial statements.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
2. Continued
Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about
which separate financial information is available that is evaluated
regularly by the chief operating decision maker in deciding how to
allocate resources and in assessing performance. Categories required to
be reported as well as reconciled to the financial statements are
segment profit or loss, certain specific revenue and expense items, and
segment assets. SFAS No. 130 and No. 131 are effective for fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 1997. The adoption of these standards had
no impact on the Partnership's financial position and operating results
as of and for the nine months ended September 30, 1998.
3. The Partnership Agreement
For financial statement reporting purposes, all items of income are
allocated in the same proportion as distributions of distributable
cash.
Distributable cash attributed to a particular limited partner's Unit is
calculated from the date of admission to the Partnership. The unpaid
cumulative preferred return at September 30, 1998 totaled $23.478
million ($47.96 to $49.90 per Unit, per close). On October 30, 1998,
the cumulative preferred return that was unpaid at September 30, 1998
was reduced by a cash distribution to the Limited Partners for the
quarter ended September 30, 1998 totaling $596,459 ($1.25 per Unit).
The General Partner received a cash distribution of $12,173 on October
30, 1998.
4. Properties
During the nine months ended September 30, 1998, the Partnership
entered into the following real estate transactions:

</TABLE>
The Partnership financed the acquisition of the properties through
borrowings with an average interest rate of 8.5%, as partial
satisfaction of the purchase prices.
In addition, the Partnership sold two properties for an aggregate
selling price of $12.1 million and recognized a gain of approximately
$4.5 million.

Except for the debt service requirements under the mortgages, there are no
material restrictions upon the Partnership's present or future ability to make
distributions in accordance with the provisions of its Partnership Agreement.
On October 29, 1998, the Partnership received a line of credit for one year from
Nations Credit Commercial Corporation of up to $24.5 million bearing interest at
a rate of 315 basis points over LIBOR. The line of credit will be used to fund
future acquisitions.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In June 1997, SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income", and SFAS No. 131,
"Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information," were
issued. SFAS No. 130 established standards for reporting and displaying
comprehensive income and its components in a financial statement that is
displayed with the same prominence as other financial statements.
Reclassification of financial statements for earlier periods, provided for
comparative purposes, is required. The statement also requires the accumulated
balance of other comprehensive income to be displayed separately from retained
earnings and additional paid-in capital in equity section of the balance sheet.
SFAS No. 131 establishes standards for reporting information about operating
segments in annual and interim financial statements. Operating segments are
defined as components of an enterprise about which separate financial
information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating
decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing
performance. Categories required to be reported as well as reconciled to the
financial statements are segment profit or loss, certain specific revenue and
expense items, and segment assets. SFAS No. 130 and No. 131 are effective for
fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997. The adoption of these standards
had no impact on the Partnership's financial position and operating results as
of and for the nine months ended September 30, 1998.
<PAGE> 9
Impact of Year 2000
The Year 2000 compliance issue concerns the inability of computer systems to
accurately calculate, store or use a date after 1999. This could result in a
system failure or miscalculations causing disruptions of operations.
The Year 2000 issue affects virtually all companies and organizations.
The Partnership has been taking the necessary steps to understand the nature and
extent of the work required to make its core information computer systems and
non-information embedded systems Year 2000 compliant. The Partnership has
determined that it will not be necessary to modify, update or replace its
computer hardware and software applications.
The vendor that provides the Partnership's existing general ledger software has
released a compliant version of its product which the Partnership is currently
using. The cost of the general ledger system did not have a material effect on
the Partnership's financial condition or results of operations. The
Partnership's properties, which have no scheduled lease expirations prior to
August 18, 2002, are subject to net leases and accordingly the Year 2000
compliance of embedded systems (e.g., security, HVAC, fire and elevator systems)
are the responsibility of the tenants. The Partnership has contacted each of its
tenants asking them to identify and evaluate the changes and modifications
necessary to make these systems compliant for Year 2000 processing. The cost
associated with the effect to make the embedded systems Year 2000 compliant are
the tenant's responsibility. However, no assurances can be given that the
properties embedded systems will be Year 2000 compliant by December 31, 1999 and
compliance costs, if any, incurred by the Partnership would not be significant.
The Partnership is communicating with significant third-party service providers
and vendors with which it does business to determine the efforts being made on
their part for compliance. The Partnership is attempting to receive compliance
certificates from all third parties that have a material impact on the
Partnership's operations, but no assurance can be given with respect to the cost
or timing of such efforts or the potential effects of any failure to comply.
Management will closely monitor the Partnership's entire Year 2000 compliance
function and will develop contingent plans if necessary.

The changes in results of operations with respect to revenues, interest and
depreciation for the quarter ended September 30, 1998 are primarily attributed
to the operations of real property investments acquired in the third quarter of
1998.
General and administrative expenses decreased in the nine months ended September
30, 1998, due to lower property operating expenses.

Accounting Standards Issued but not yet Adopted
In June, 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 133 ("SFAS 133") "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities". The Statement establishes accounting and
reporting standards for derivative instruments and hedging activities. This
Statement is effective for all fiscal quarters of fiscal years beginning after
June 15, 1999. The adoption of SFAS 133 is not expected to have any impact on
the financial position or results of operations of the Partnership.
