Note 6. Property leased to ASG Acquisition Corp.:
----------------------------------------
The Partnership owns a 73.57% interest as a tenant-in-common with Corporate
Property Associates 8 ("CPA(R):8"), an affiliate, which owns the remaining
interest in a property in Dekalb County, Georgia which had been leased to a
subsidiary of ASG Acquisition Corp. ("ASG"). The Partnership and CPA(R):8
entered into litigation against Heller Financial, Inc. ("Heller"), a creditor of
ASG, asserting that in 1992 the assets of ASG and the subsidiary were
transferred to a newly formed operating company controlled by Heller in lieu of
foreclosure. The newly formed subsidiary entered into a short-term sublease for
the property. The Partnership and CPA(R):8 informed Heller at that time that its
actions were contrary to the lease, and, therefore, not permissible. The
Partnership's offer to allow the operating company formed by Heller to assume
the lease and for Heller to provide a guaranty of the lease obligation was
rejected. The Partnership and CPA(R):8 also alleged that the sublease was made
with the intent of defrauding the Partnership and CPA(R):8.
On May 2, 1996, the Partnership and CPA(R):8 reached a settlement with Heller
and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Amerisig, Inc. ("Amerisig"), the successor
company to ASG. Under the settlement, all parties have agreed to mutual releases
which will result in the withdrawal of all litigation among the parties. A new
lease was executed, and Amerisig executed a guaranty and suretyship agreement
which unconditionally guarantees the lease obligation.
The annual rent on the Dekalb property will remain at $797,000 (of which the
Partnership's share is approximately $586,360) plus debt service on the mortgage
loan; however, there will be no rent increases until January 2005. The lease
term will expire in 2009, which was the scheduled expiration under the prior ASG
lease.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) - (CONTINUED)
Also on May 2, 1996, the mortgage lender agreed to extend the maturity on the
mortgage loan collateralized by the Dekalb property from January 1997 to April
2001. As restated, the loan provides for monthly principal installments along
with interest payable at an annual rate of the London Inter-Bank Offered Rate
plus 3%. The loan currently has a balance of $6,397,435 (of which the
Partnership's share is $4,706,593).
Note 7. Properties leased to Furon Company:
----------------------------------
In January 1990, the Partnership and CPA(R):8 purchased nine properties as
tenants-in-common with 67.72% and 32.28% ownership interests, respectively, and
entered into a master lease with Furon Company ("Furon"). In August 1993, the
Partnership and CPA(R):8 consented to Furon's sublease of two properties in
Liverpool and Twinsburg, Ohio to IER Industries, Inc. ("IER") through July 2007,
the end of Furon's initial lease term. In connection with consenting to the
sublease, the Partnership granted IER a purchase option on the two subleased
properties in consideration for an irrevocable payment of $75,000 (of which the
Partnership's share was $50,790). The $75,000 paid in 1993 would be credited to
the IER's purchase price for the properties if the option were exercised.
On February 15, 1996, IER notified the Partnership and CPA(R):8 that it was
exercising its option and would seek to complete the purchase on or about July
8, 1996. The sublease provides that the purchase price will be the greater of
fair market value determined pursuant to an appraisal process or the sum of (i)
$1,450,000 and (ii) any prepayment premium resulting from any mandatory
prepayment to the lender on the mortgage loan collateralized by the nine Furon
properties. The appraisal process has been started; however, no determination
has yet been made as to fair market value. In the event that the properties are
sold, the Partnership's share of Furon's rent will be reduced by $115,993. In
connection with the proposed transaction, the $883,242 carrying value of the
Twinsburg and Liverpool properties has been reclassified as real estate held for
sale.

Item 2. - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION OF OPERATIONS
-----------------------------------------------
Results of Operations:
- - ---------------------
Net income for the three-month period ended March 31, 1996 increased by $231,000
(22%) as compared with the prior year's three-month period. The increase in net
income was due to an increase in lease revenues and decreases in interest,
general and administrative and property expenses. Lease revenues benefitted from
rent increases in July 1995, August 1995 and January 1996 on the Partnership's
leases with Detroit Diesel Corporations ("Detroit Diesel"), Red Bank
Distribution, Inc. ("Red Bank") and NVRyan, L.P. The decrease in interest
expense was due to the commencement of principal payments on the Detroit Diesel
mortgage loan in December 1995 and continuing amortization of other of the
Partnership's mortgage loans. The decrease in general and administrative
expenses was due to the lower Partnership office expenses, and the decrease in
property expenses was due to expiration of the five-year leasing fee period on
substantially all of the Partnership's leases. Approximately $1,500,000 of the
fees incurred to date has not yet been paid to the Corporate General Partner.
The decrease in equity income is due to the loss of income from the
Partnership's investment in a property formerly leased to Xerox Corporation. The
Partnership's equity investment in this property was written off in September
1995. The reduction in equity income was partially offset by a rent increase on
the Partnership's equity investment in a property leased to Information
Resources, Inc.
Financial Condition:
- - -------------------
There has been no material change in the Partnership's financial condition since
December 31, 1995. Cash provided from operations and equity investments was
sufficient to pay distributions and mortgage principal installments. The
Partnership has resolved the uncertainties relating to the Amerisig, Inc.
("Amerisig") property by entering into a settlement agreement. Under the
settlement agreement, a disputed short-term sublease was eliminated, a lease was
executed which lease term extends through 2009 and Amerisig provided an
unconditional guarantee of the lease obligation. In addition, the maturity of
the mortgage loan collateralized by the Amerisig property has been extended from
1997 until 2001. The ability of the Partnership to maintain its current cash
position is affected by whether the Partnership can pay off a limited recourse
loan on the Red Bank property of approximately $2,800,000 which is due on demand
and the Corporate General Partner's continued voluntary deferral of leasing fees
of $1,500,000. The Red Bank lender has not made demands for payment and the
Partnership has continued to pay monthly debt service. The Partnership can seek
to refinance the loan or seek alternative financing. The Partnership's ability
to retain its rate of distributions could be impacted by this uncertainty.
