                            NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                     (Unaudited)


      Note A - Going Concern

         The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the
      Partnership will continue as a going concern.  The Partnership had cash
      flows provided by operating activities of $206,514 for the six months
      ended June 30, 1995 and $60,143 for the twelve months ended December 31,
      1994. At June 30, 1995, the Partnership had unrestricted cash of
      $840,952. As discussed in Note C, a mortgage note payable of $5,300,000
      that matured January 1, 1994, is in default. The Partnership's estimated
      operating cash flows during 1995 are expected to be  inadequate to
      enable the Partnership to make this payment on its long-term debt.

         Throughout 1994 and the second quarter of 1995 the Partnership has
      sought refinancing for the Partnership's debt. The Partnership has been
      unsuccessful in refinancing the debt on Bay Village and Forest Ridge.
      Accordingly, Forest Ridge was foreclosed on January 5, 1995, (see Note
      D) and it is expected that Bay Village will be either sold or foreclosed
      by the lender in 1995. A long-term extension related to Highpoint and
      Gateway Plaza has been obtained to extend the maturity dates to the year
      2008 (see Note C).


      Note B - Basis of Presentation

         The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in
      accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
      financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-QSB and Item
      310(b) of Regulation S-B.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the
      information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting
      principles for complete financial statements.  In the opinion of the
      Managing General Partner, all adjustments (consisting of normal
      recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have
      been included.  Operating results for the three and six month periods
      ended June 30, 1995, are not necessarily indicative of the results that
      may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 1995.  For
      further information, refer to the financial statements and footnotes
      thereto included in the Partnership's annual report on Form 10-KSB for
      the fiscal year ended December 31, 1994.

      Reclassifications


         Certain reclassifications have been made to the 1994 information to
      conform to the 1995 presentation.

      Note C - Mortgage Notes Payable

         The Partnership's mortgage notes payable for Bay Village ($5,300,000)
      and Forest Ridge ($7,200,000) matured on January 1, 1994, and the
      mortgage notes payable for Highpoint ($6,600,000) and Gateway
      ($5,616,000) matured on March 1, 1995. The Partnership has been
      unsuccessful in refinancing the debt on Bay Village and  Forest Ridge.
      Accordingly, Forest Ridge was foreclosed on by the lender on January 5,
      1995 (see Note D) and it is expected that Bay Village will either be
      sold or foreclosed by the lender in 1995.  The Partnership has
      successfully obtained a long-term extension related to the Highpoint and
      Gateway notes.  The Highpoint note matures October 1, 2008, and the
      Gateway note matures January 1, 2008.  Both notes are cross-
      collateralized and have an interest rate of 9.25%.  Loan costs of
      $81,836 were paid relating to the extension of these notes. 

      Note D - Foreclosure of Forest Ridge

         On January 5, 1995, the lender foreclosed on Forest Ridge Shopping
      Center.  The $7,200,000 mortgage matured January 1, 1994, and was in
      default.  The lender granted forebearances through June 30, 1994, while
      refinancing discussions continued between the Partnership and the
      lender.  These discussions did not ultimately produce an agreement to
      either refinance or sell the property and the Partnership did not
      contest the lender's foreclosure.  In the Managing General Partner's
      opinion, it was not in the Partnership's best interest to contest the
      foreclosure action or file for reorganization under the bankruptcy laws. 
      On January 5, 1995, the Partnership recorded a valuation write-down of
      $414,859, to reduce the carrying costs of the Forest Ridge assets to
      their estimated market value, and a gain on the foreclosure of $844,287.

      ITEM 2.    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION

         The Partnership's investment properties consist of three retail
      centers.  The following table sets forth the average occupancy of the
      properties for the quarters ended June 30, 1995 and 1994:

<TABLE>
<CAPTION>


                                                        Average Occupancy
                                                        1995        1994
       <S>                                              <C>          <C>

       Bay Village
            Conway, South Carolina                       98%          98%
       Gateway Plaza
            Mt. Sterling, Kentucky                       94%          89%

       Highpoint Village
            Bellefontaine, Ohio                          95%          93%
      </TABLE>
            The increase in occupancy at Gateway Plaza is a result of six new
      tenants moving in during 1994 that occupy approximately 9,400 square
      feet.  The Managing General Partner has been notified by an anchor
      tenant, Wal-Mart, of its intent to vacate the Gateway Plaza in 1996. 
      This tenant is liable for, and the Partnership expects that it will pay,
      its rental payments through the year 2008 when its lease expires.  It is
      unknown at this time to what extent this vacancy will negatively impact
      the performance of the shopping center.

            The Partnership realized net income of $275,769 for the six months
      ended June 30, 1995, compared to a net loss of $390,092 for the
      corresponding period in 1994.  A net loss of $59,297 was recorded for
      the three months ended June 30, 1995, compared to a net loss of $193,554
      for the corresponding period in 1994.  The increase in net income for
      the six months ended June 30, 1995, compared to the corresponding period
      in 1994 was primarily due to an $844,287 gain on the foreclosure of
      Forest Ridge.  The gain on the Forest Ridge foreclosure was partially
      offset by a related $414,859 write-down to reduce the carrying costs of
      the Forest Ridge assets to their estimated market value. In addition,
      the decreases in rental income, operating expenses, property management
      fees, depreciation, interest expense, property taxes, and tenant
      reimbursements were primarily a result of the foreclosure of Forest
      Ridge. Other income increased for the three and six month periods ended
      June 30, 1995, as a result of an easement fee paid by Wal-Mart at
      Gateway Plaza.

            At June 30, 1995, the Partnership had unrestricted cash of
      $840,952 versus $732,942 at December 31, 1994.  Net cash provided by
      operating activities increased as a result of a decrease in tax and
      insurance escrow funding and a decrease in payments of other
      liabilities.  Net cash used in financing activities increased due to the
      payment of loan costs relating to the extension on the Highpoint and
      Gateway mortgage notes and principal payments.

                                         9

<PAGE>

            Due to the uncertainty of the mortgage financing for the
      Partnership, the Managing General Partner is attempting to maximize cash
      reserves.  No distributions were made in 1994 or the first six months of
      1995 and no distributions are anticipated during the remainder of 1995.
      Future cash distributions will depend on the levels of net cash
      generated from operations, refinancing, property sales, and the
      availability of cash reserves.

            $5,616,000.00                                  Dated:  May 30, 1995


            FOR  VALUE  RECEIVED,  the  undersigned,  BRUNNER COMPANIES
INCOME PROPERTIES, L.P. III, a Delaware limited partnership (hereafter
referred to as "Borrower")  promises  to  pay  to  the  order  of
COMMONWEALTH LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY,  a  Kentucky  corporation
(hereafter  referred  to as "Payee"; Payee and/or any subsequent
holder(s) hereof, hereafter referred to as "Holder"), at Payee's address
c/o Providian Capital Management Real Estate Services, Section #808,
Louisville,  Kentucky  40289,  or  at  such other place as Holder shall
designate  from time to time in writing, the principal sum of FIVE
MILLION SIX HUNDRED  SIXTEEN  THOUSAND  AND  NO/100 DOLLARS
($5,616,000.00), together with interest  on  the  unpaid  principal
balance of such indebtedness from time to time  outstanding  from  the
date of disbursement at the rates hereinafter set forth,  in  lawful
money  of the United States of America, such principal and interest
being due and payable as follows:

      1.    INTEREST AND PAYMENTS.

            A.    Interest  Rate.    Interest  shall accrue on the
outstanding principal  amount  hereof  at the rate of nine and
one-quarter percent (9.25%) per  annum  commencing  on the date of this
Note (hereafter referred to as the "Closing") to and including the Final
Maturity Date (hereafter defined).

            B.    Payment Terms.

                  [1]   Interest  for  the calendar month in which the
      Closing takes  place  shall  be  prorated  on  a  daily  basis  as
      provided  in Subparagraph  1D  hereof  and  shall  be  paid  in
      advance  at Closing. Thereafter,  principal  and  interest  shall
      be payable in equal monthly installments  of  Fifty  Thousand
      Eight Hundred Thirty-Three and 33/100 Dollars  ($50,833.33),  such
      installments to be due on the first day of each  calendar month
      during the term hereof, commencing on the first day of the second
      full calendar month following the Closing.

                  [2]   The   entire  outstanding  principal  balance
      of  the indebtedness  evidenced  hereby,  plus  all  accrued but
      unpaid interest thereon, shall be due and payable on January 1,
      2008 (hereafter referred to  as  "Final  Maturity  Date").
      Borrower  acknowledges that monthly installments of principal and
      interest required in Subparagraph B1 above are based on an
      amortization period that is longer than the term of this Note,
      and  therefore  a substantial portion of the principal balance of
      this Note will be due on the Final Maturity Date.

            C.    Basis  Point.   As used in this Note, the term "Basis
Point" shall mean one one-hundredth (1/100th) of one percentage point of
interest.

            D.    Calculation  of  Interest.  All interest on any
indebtedness evidenced  by  this  Note  shall be calculated on the basis
of a three hundred sixty  (360)-day year composed of twelve (12) thirty
(30)-day months. Interest for partial months shall be calculated by
multiplying the principal balance of this  Note  by the applicable per
annum rate, dividing the product so obtained by 360, and multiplying the
result by the actual number of days elapsed.

      2.    APPLICATION  OF PAYMENTS.  All payments made under this Note
shall be  applied  first  in reduction of any late charges, next in
reduction of any sums  advanced  by Holder to cure defaults under the
Mortgage (defined below), next  in  reduction of any applicable
prepayment premium, next in reduction of current  interest,  and  any
remaining amount in reduction of the outstanding principal balance.

      3.    COLLATERAL.    The  indebtedness evidenced by this Note is
secured by,
<PAGE>

among  other  things:  [i] that certain Mortgage,
Assignment of Rents and Security Agreement dated as of May 12, 1989,

assumed  by  Borrower  pursuant to that certain Loan Extension Agreement
dated  as  of  July  15,  1994, recorded in Mortgage Book 159, Page 249
in the aforesaid  Clerk's  Office, as further amended by First Amendment
to Mortgage, Assignment  of  Rents  and  Security  Agreement  of even

the aforesaid Clerk's Office (as  so  amended,  the  "Mortgage"),
conveying  Borrower's  right,  title and interest  in  property  lying
and being in Montgomery County, Kentucky as the same  is more
particularly described in the Mortgage, to Payee as security for the
performance  by Borrower of its obligations hereunder; [ii] an
Assignment of  Leases and Rents dated as of May 12, 1989, between
Tennessee & Associates- IV  (Mt.  Sterling),  an  Ohio  general
partnership,  and  Payee, recorded in Miscellaneous  Book  43,  Page  55
in the Montgomery County, Kentucky Clerk's Office,  the  obligations  of
the  assignor thereunder having been assumed by Borrower  pursuant  to
that  certain  Loan  Extension  Agreement  dated as of July  15,  1994,
recorded  in  Mortgage  Book  159, Page 249 in the aforesaid Clerk's
Office, as further amended by First Amendment to Assignment of Leases
and  Rents  of  even date herewith recorded or to be recorded in the
aforesaid Clerk's  Office (as so amended, the "Assignment of Rents");
[iii] that certain Second  Open-End Mortgage, Assignment of Rents and
Security Agreement dated as of the date hereof between Borrower, as
Mortgagor, and Payee, as Mortgagee, to be  recorded  in  the  Logan

the property in Logan County, Ohio commonly known as the Highpoint
Plaza  Shopping  Center  (the  "Second  Mortgage");  [iv]  any cash
deposit,  certificate of deposit or letter of credit given as security
for the indebtedness  now  evidenced by this Note; and [v] any other
document executed in  connection  with  the  indebtedness  now

described).    All  of  the property and other interests  of  the
Borrower  encumbered  by  or  subject  to the terms of the Mortgage  or
any other Loan Document (defined below) is hereafter referred to as the
"Property."

      4.    LATE  CHARGE.  Borrower shall pay to Holder a late charge
equal to four  percent (4%) of any amount, including any interest, not
paid within five (5)  days  of  the  due date of such amount without
regard to the grace period provided in Paragraph 5 below, not as a
penalty, but as compensation to Holder for  the cost of collecting and
processing such late payment.  Borrower agrees that  such  late  charge
represents  a  good faith reasonable estimate of the probable  cost to
Holder of such delinquency.  Holder shall have no obligation to  accept
any late payment not accompanied by said late charge, but if Holder does
so, Holder shall not thereby waive its right to the late charge.

      5.    INTEREST  UPON  DEFAULT;  ACCELERATION.    In  the  event
that any payment  of  principal, interest, late charge or prepayment
premium under this Note  is  not  paid  within  ten  (10) days of its
due date, whether or not by reason of acceleration, such failure shall
constitute a default hereunder, and such  amount  shall  bear  interest
from  the  due  date  thereof  until paid (including  interest  on any
judgment obtained by Holder until payment in full is  received  by
Holder)  at  the per annum rate which is three hundred (300) Basis
Points  above  the interest rate otherwise in effect hereunder.  In the
event  of  such  failure  to  pay,  and/or if there occurs a default
under the Mortgage,  the  Assignment  of  Leases  and  Rents,  the
Second Mortgage, the Environmental  Indemnity  Agreement of even date
herewith executed by Borrower in  favor  of Holder (the "Environmental
Indemnity Agreement"), or in or under any  other  document or instrument
evidencing, securing, or otherwise relating to  the indebtedness
evidenced hereby (this Note, the Mortgage, the Assignment of  Leases
and  Rents,  the  Second  Mortgage,  the  Environmental  Indemnity
Agreement,  and such other documents and instruments are collectively
referred to as "Loan Documents", and all of the terms and conditions
thereof are hereby made a part of this Note to the same extent and with
the same force and

                                   2

effect as if they were fully set forth herein), which
default is not cured within the applicable  notice  and/or  grace
period, if any, expressly provided therefor, Holder may at its option,
in addition to any other remedies to which it may be entitled,  declare
the  total  unpaid  principal  balance of the indebtedness evidenced
hereby,  together  with all accrued but unpaid interest thereon and any
applicable  prepayment  premium and all other sums owing, immediately
due and payable.

      6.    PREPAYMENT;  PREPAYMENT  PREMIUM.    Borrower  may
prepay  the indebtedness  evidenced by this Note in whole or in part, at
any time and from time to time, without the payment of a prepayment
premium or penalty, provided [i]  written  notice  of  the  amount of
such prepayment is given to Holder at least  ninety  (90)  days  prior
to  any  such  prepayment,  [ii] any partial prepayment  must  be  in
multiples of $10,000, and [iii] no partial prepayment shall  entitle
Borrower  to the release of any collateral securing this Note. All
partial prepayments shall be applied in the manner provided in Paragraph
2 above.

      7.    ATTORNEYS'  FEES.    If  this  Note  is  placed in the hands
of an attorney  for  collection  or is collected through any legal or
administrative proceeding, including without limitation bankruptcy or
insolvency proceedings, or  if Holder shall engage counsel in any
matters relating to a default in the performance  of  obligations  to
Holder  under  this Note, or any of the Loan Documents,  Borrower
promises  to pay, in addition to costs and disbursements otherwise
allowed, to the extent permitted by law, reasonable attorneys' fees,
including fees incurred for trial and appellate proceedings.

      8.    WAIVER.    Borrower hereby waives presentment for payment,
demand, protest, notice of nonpayment, demand, default, dishonor, and
protest.

      9.    FORBEARANCE.    Holder  shall  not be deemed to have waived
any of Holder's  rights or remedies under this Note unless such waiver
is express and in  a  writing  signed  by  Holder,  and  no  delay  or
omission by Holder in exercising, or failure by Holder on any one or
more occasions to exercise, any of  Holder's  rights  hereunder  or
under the Loan Documents, or at law or in equity,  including,  without
limitation, Holder's right, after any default by Borrower,  to declare
the entire indebtedness evidenced hereby immediately due and payable,
shall be construed as a novation of this Note or shall operate as a
waiver  or  prevent  the  subsequent exercise of any or all of such
rights. Acceptance  by  Holder  of  any  portion  or  all of any sum
payable hereunder whether  before,  on  or  after  the  due date of such
payment, shall not be a waiver  of  Holder's  right  either  to require
prompt payment when due of all other sums payable hereunder or to
exercise any of Holder's rights, powers and remedies  hereunder or under
the Loan Documents.  A waiver of any right on one occasion  shall  not
be  construed  as  a  waiver of Holder's right to insist thereafter
upon  strict  compliance  with  the  terms hereof without previous
notice of such intention being given to Borrower, and no exercise of any
right by  Holder shall constitute or be deemed to constitute an election
of remedies by  Holder  precluding  the subsequent exercise by Holder of
any or all of the rights,  powers and remedies available to it
hereunder, under any of the other Loan Documents, or at law or in
equity.  Borrower expressly waives the benefit of  any  statute or rule
of law or equity now provided, or which may hereafter be  provided,
which  would produce a result contrary to, or in conflict with, the
foregoing.    Borrower consents to any and all renewals and extensions
in the  time  of  payment  hereof  without  in any way affecting the
liability of Borrower  or  any  person  liable  or  to  become  liable
with respect to any indebtedness  evidenced  hereby.   No extension of
the time for the payment of this  Note or any installment due hereunder,
made by agreement with any person now or hereafter liable for the
payment of this Note shall operate to release, discharge,  modify,
change or affect the original liability of Borrower under this  Note,
either  in  whole  or  in part, unless Holder agrees otherwise in
writing.

      10.   RENUNCIATION AND ASSIGNMENT OF EXEMPTIONS.        Borrower
hereby waives  and  renounces  for  itself, its legal representatives,
successors and assigns,  all  rights  to  the  benefits of any statute
of limitations and any moratorium,  reinstatement,  marshalling,
forbearance,  valuation,  stay, extension,  redemption,
appraisement,  exemption,  and  homestead  right, entitlement, or
exemption now provided, or which may hereafter be provided, by the
Constitution  or  laws  of  the  United States of America or of any
state thereof,  both  as  to  itself  and  in  and  to all of its
property, real and personal,  against the enforcement and collection of
the obligations evidenced by  this  Note.    Borrower  hereby transfers,
conveys and assigns to Holder a sufficient amount of such homestead
right, entitlement, or exemption as may be set  apart  in  bankruptcy,
to  pay  this  Note  in  full,  with all costs of collection, and does
hereby direct any trustee in bankruptcy having possession of  such
homestead  right,  entitlement,  or exemption to deliver to Holder a
sufficient  amount  of  property  or  money  set  apart  as  exempt to
pay the indebtedness evidenced hereby, or any renewal thereof, and does
hereby appoint Holder the attorney-in-fact for Borrower to claim any and
all homestead right, entitlement, or other exemptions allowed by law.

      11.   APPLICABLE  LAW.    This Note shall be governed by, enforced
under and  interpreted  in accordance with the laws of the State of
Kentucky without giving  effect to applicable principles of conflict of
laws to the extent that the application of the law of another
jurisdiction would be required thereby.

      12.   LIMIT  ON  INTEREST.    If,  from  any  circumstances
whatsoever, fulfillment  of  any  provision  of this Note, at the time
performance of such provision  shall  be  due,  shall  involve
transcending the limit on interest presently  prescribed  by any
applicable usury statute or any other applicable law,  with regard to
obligations of like character and amount, then Holder may at  its option
[i] declare the entire indebtedness evidenced hereby, including
interest,  and  all other sums owing, immediately due and payable, [ii]
reduce the  obligations to be fulfilled to such limit on interest, or
[iii] apply the amount  that  would  exceed  such  limit  on  interest
to the reduction of the outstanding  principal  balance  of  this  Note,
and  not  to  the payment of interest,  with  the same force and effect
as though Borrower had specifically designated  such  sums  to be so
applied to principal and Holder had agreed to accept such extra
payment(s) as a premium-free prepayment, so that in no event shall  any
exaction  be  possible  under  this  Note that is in excess of the
applicable  limit on interest.  It is the intention of Borrower and
Holder not to  create any obligation in excess of the amount allowable
by applicable law. The  provisions  of this paragraph shall control
every other provision of this Note.

      13.   NOTICES.    All  notices,  demands  or  requests  provided
for or permitted  to  be  given  hereunder,  same  shall  be  in writing

      14.   LIMITED  EXCULPATION.  Subject to the provisions of any
guaranties of  the  indebtedness  created or arising under any of the
Loan Documents, but notwithstanding  anything  else  to the contrary in
this Note or in any of the other  Loan  Documents,  in  any  action  or
proceeding brought to enforce the obligation  of  Borrower  to  pay any
indebtedness or obligation evidenced by, created or arising under this
Note or the Loan Documents or any of them, or to exercise  any  right
of  foreclosure  or  power of sale contained in the Loan Documents  of
the  liens,  security  titles, estates, assignments, rights and security
interests  now or at any time hereafter securing any indebtedness or
obligation  pursuant  to  the  Loan Documents, the judgment or decree
shall be enforceable against Borrower only to the extent of the interest
of Borrower in the  Property, and any such judgment shall not be subject
to the execution on, nor  be  a  lien  on,  any  assets of Borrower
other than its interest in such Property, it being specifically
understood and agreed that Borrower shall have no personal liability
hereunder for the payment of this Note, and Holder shall look  only  to
the Property and any guaranties of this Note for the payment of the
indebtedness evidenced hereby; PROVIDED, HOWEVER that, notwithstanding
the foregoing provisions of this paragraph, Borrower shall be fully and
personally liable  at  all  times  for:  [a] any costs, expenses, or

toxic or Hazardous Materials or waste products  (as  the  same  are
defined  in the Mortgage); [b] repayment of the entire  unpaid  balance
of  this  Note  in  the  event  of  fraud or material
misrepresentations;  and [c] the misapplication of [i] proceeds paid
under any insurance  policies  by  reason  of  damage, loss or
destruction to all or any portion of the Property, to the full extent of
such proceeds, [ii] proceeds or awards resulting from the condemnation
or other taking in lieu of condemnation of  all or any portion of the
Property, to the full extent of such proceeds or awards,  and [iii] from
and after default, income, rents, issues, profits, and revenues
(collectively referred to as "rents") arising or issuing from or out of
all or any part of the Property to the full extent of such rents.
Nothing contained  in this paragraph shall [x] be deemed to be a release
or impairment of  the  indebtedness evidenced by this Note or the lien
of the Loan Documents upon  the  Property;  [y]  preclude  Holder  in
the  case of any default from foreclosing  the  Loan  Documents or
exercising any power of sale contained in the  Loan  Documents,  or
except as expressly limited in this paragraph, from enforcing  any  of
the  other  rights  of Holder; or [z] preclude Holder from enforcing its
rights under any guaranties of the indebtedness, pursuant to the terms
of such guaranties.

                          AMENDED AND RESTATED PROMISSORY NOTE


$6,600,000.00                                             Dated:  May 30, 1995


            FOR  VALUE  RECEIVED,  the  undersigned,  BRUNNER COMPANIES
INCOME PROPERTIES, L.P. III, a Delaware limited partnership (hereafter
referred to as "Borrower")  promises  to  pay  to  the  order of
NATIONAL HOME LIFE ASSURANCE COMPANY,  a  Missouri  corporation
(hereafter  referred  to as "Payee"; Payee and/or any subsequent
holder(s) hereof, hereafter referred to as "Holder"), at Payee's address
c/o Providian Capital Management Real Estate Services, Section #808,
Louisville,  Kentucky  40289,  or  at  such other place as Holder shall
designate  from  time to time in writing, the principal sum of SIX
MILLION SIX HUNDRED THOUSAND AND NO/100 DOLLARS ($6,600,000.00),
together with interest on the  unpaid  principal  balance  of  such
indebtedness from time to time outstanding  from the date of
disbursement at the rates hereinafter set forth, in lawful  money  of
the  United  States of America, such principal and interest being due
and payable as follows:

      1.    INTEREST AND PAYMENTS.

            A.    Interest  Rate.    Interest  shall accrue on the
outstanding principal  amount  hereof  at the rate of nine and
one-quarter percent (9.25%) per  annum  commencing  on the date of this
Note (hereafter referred to as the "Closing") to and including the Final
Maturity Date (hereafter defined).

            B.    Payment Terms.

                  [1]   Interest  for  the calendar month in which the
      Closing takes  place  shall  be  prorated  on  a  daily  basis  as
      provided  in Subparagraph  1D  hereof  and  shall  be  paid  in
      advance  at Closing. Thereafter,  principal  and  interest  shall
      be payable in equal monthly installments  of  Sixty  Thousand  and
      00/100 Dollars ($60,000.00), such installments  to  be  due on the
      first day of each calendar month during the term hereof,
      commencing on the first day of the second full calendar month
      following the Closing.

            [2]   The entire outstanding principal balance of the
      indebtedness evidenced hereby, plus all accrued but unpaid
      interest thereon, shall be due  and  payable  on  October  1, 2008
      (hereafter referred to as "Final Maturity  Date").    Borrower
      acknowledges that monthly installments of principal and interest
      required in Subparagraph B1 above are based on an amortization
      period  that  is  longer  than  the term of this Note, and
      therefore  a  substantial  portion of the principal balance of
      this Note will be due on the Final Maturity Date.

            C.    Basis  Point.   As used in this Note, the term "Basis
Point" shall mean one one-hundredth (1/100th) of one percentage point of
interest.

            D.    Calculation  of  Interest.  All interest on any
indebtedness evidenced  by  this  Note  shall be calculated on the basis
of a three hundred sixty  (360)-day year composed of twelve (12) thirty
(30)-day months. Interest for partial months shall be calculated by
multiplying the principal balance of this  Note  by the applicable per
annum rate, dividing the product so obtained by 360, and multiplying the
result by the actual number of days elapsed.

      2.    APPLICATION  OF PAYMENTS.  All payments made under this Note
shall be  applied  first  in reduction of any late charges, next in
reduction of any sums  advanced  by Holder to cure defaults under the
Mortgage (defined below), next  in  reduction of any applicable
prepayment premium, next in reduction of current  interest,  and  any
remaining amount in reduction of the outstanding principal balance.

      3.    COLLATERAL.    The  indebtedness evidenced by this Note is
secured by,

the aforesaid records, and the obligations  of  the  assignor
thereunder  having  been  assumed  by Borrower pursuant  to  that
certain Loan Extension Agreement dated as of July 15, 1994, recorded  in
Volume  233,  Page  830, as Instrument #9405904 in the aforesaid
records,  as  further  amended  by First Amendment to Assignment of
Leases and Rents  of  even  date  herewith  recorded  or  to be recorded
in the aforesaid records  (as so amended, the "Assignment of Rents");
[iii] that certain Second Mortgage,  Assignment  of  Rents  and
Security Agreement dated as of the date hereof between Borrower, as
mortgagor, and Payee, as mortgagee, to be recorded in the Montgomery
County, Kentucky Clerk's Office, conveying Borrower's right, title  and
interest  in  the property in Montgomery County, Kentucky commonly known
as  the Gateway Plaza Shopping Center (the "Second Mortgage"); [iv] any
cash deposit, certificate of deposit or letter of credit given as
security for the  indebtedness  now  evidenced  by  this  Note;  and [v]
any other document executed in connection with the indebtedness now
evidenced by this Note or the "Existing  Note"  (hereinafter
described).    All  of  the property and other interests  of  the
Borrower  encumbered  by  or  subject  to the terms of the Mortgage  or
any other Loan Document (defined below) is hereafter referred to as the
"Property."



      4.    LATE  CHARGE.  Borrower shall pay to Holder a late charge
equal to four  percent (4%) of any amount, including any interest, not
paid within five (5)  days  of  the  due date of such amount without
regard to the grace period provided in Paragraph 5 below, not as a
penalty, but as compensation to Holder for  the cost of collecting and
processing such late payment.  Borrower agrees that  such  late  charge
represents  a  good faith reasonable estimate of the probable  cost to
Holder of such delinquency.  Holder shall have no obligation to  accept
any late payment not accompanied by said late charge, but if Holder does
so, Holder shall not thereby waive its right to the late charge.

      5.    INTEREST  UPON  DEFAULT;  ACCELERATION.    In  the  event
that any payment  of  principal, interest, late charge or prepayment
premium under this Note  is  not  paid  within  ten  (10) days of its
due date, whether or not by reason of acceleration, such failure shall
constitute a default hereunder, and such  amount shall bear interest
from the due date thereof until paid (including  interest  on  any
judgment  obtained  by Holder until payment in full is received  by
Holder) at the per annum rate which is three hundred (300) Basis Points
above the interest rate otherwise in effect hereunder.  In the event of
such  failure to pay, and/or if there occurs a default under the
Mortgage, the Assignment  of  Leases  and  Rents,  the  Second
Mortgage,  the Environmental Indemnity  Agreement  of  even  date
herewith executed by Borrower in favor of Holder  (the  "Environmental
Indemnity  Agreement"), or in or under any other document  or
instrument  evidencing,  securing,  or otherwise relating to the
indebtedness  evidenced  hereby  (this  Note,  the Mortgage, the
Assignment of Leases  and Rents, the Second Mortgage, the Environmental
Indemnity Agreement, and such other documents and instruments are
collectively


                                 2
<PAGE>


referred to as "Loan Documents", and all of the terms and conditions
thereof are hereby made a part of  this Note to the same extent and with
the same force and effect as if they were fully set forth herein), which
default is not cured within the applicable notice and/or grace period,
if any, expressly provided therefor, Holder may at its  option,  in
addition  to any other remedies to which it may be entitled, declare
the  total  unpaid  principal  balance  of the indebtedness evidenced
hereby, together with all accrued but unpaid interest thereon and any
applicable prepayment premium and all other sums owing, immediately
due and payable.

      6.    PREPAYMENT; PREPAYMENT PREMIUM.  Borrower may prepay the
indebtedness  evidenced by this Note in whole or in part, at any time
and from time to time,  without  the  payment  of  a  prepayment
premium  or penalty, provided [i]  written  notice  of  the  amount of
such prepayment is given to Holder at least  ninety (90) days prior to
any such prepayment, [ii] any partial prepayment  must  be  in
multiples of $10,000, and [iii] no partial prepayment shall entitle
Borrower  to  the  release of any collateral securing this Note.  All
partial  prepayments  shall  be  applied in the manner provided in
Paragraph 2 above.

      7.    ATTORNEYS'  FEES.  Borrower shall indemnify Holder and hold
Holder harmless  from and against any and all loss, cost, damage, or
expense, includ- ing  attorney  fees  and  litigation expenses, arising
out of or in connection with  any  default  by Borrower under this Note
or any of the other Loan Documents,  and in connection therewith, if
this Note is placed in the hands of an attorney  for  collection  or is
collected through any legal or administrative proceeding, including
without limitation bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings, or  if Holder
shall engage counsel in any matters relating to a default in the
performance  of  obligations  to  Holder  under  this Note, or any of
the Loan Documents,  Borrower  promises  to pay, in addition to costs
and disbursements otherwise allowed, to the extent permitted by law,
reasonable attorneys' fees, including fees incurred for trial and
appellate proceedings.

      8.    WAIVER.    Borrower hereby waives presentment for payment,
demand, protest, notice of nonpayment, demand, default, dishonor, and
protest.

      9.    FORBEARANCE.    Holder  shall  not be deemed to have waived
any of Holder's  rights or remedies under this Note unless such waiver
is express and in  a writing signed by Holder, and no delay or omission
by Holder in exercising,  or  failure  by  Holder on any one or more
occasions to exercise, any of Holder's rights hereunder or under the
Loan Documents, or at law or in equity, including,  without limitation,
Holder's right, after any default by Borrower, to  declare  the  entire
indebtedness  evidenced  hereby  immediately due and payable,  shall  be
construed as a novation of this Note or shall operate as a waiver  or
prevent  the  subsequent  exercise  of  any or all of such rights.
Acceptance  by  Holder  of  any  portion  or  all of any sum payable
hereunder whether  before,  on  or  after  the  due date of such
payment, shall not be a waiver  of  Holder's  right  either  to require
prompt payment when due of all other sums payable hereunder or to
exercise any of Holder's rights, powers and remedies  hereunder or under
the Loan Documents.  A waiver of any right on one occasion  shall  not
be  construed  as  a  waiver of Holder's right to insist thereafter
upon  strict  compliance  with  the  terms hereof without previous
notice of such intention being given to Borrower, and no exercise of any
right by  Holder shall constitute or be deemed to constitute an election
of remedies by  Holder  precluding  the subsequent exercise by Holder of
any or all of the rights,  powers and remedies available to it
hereunder, under any of the other Loan Documents, or at law or in
equity.  Borrower expressly waives the benefit of  any  statute or rule
of law or equity now provided, or which may hereafter be  provided,
which  would produce a result contrary to, or in conflict with, the
foregoing.    Borrower consents to any and all renewals and extensions
in the  time  of  payment  hereof  without  in any way affecting the
liability of Borrower  or any person liable or to become liable with
respect to any indebtedness  evidenced  hereby.    No extension of the
time for the payment of this Note  or  any installment due hereunder,
made by agreement with any person now

                                      3
<PAGE>

or  hereafter  liable  for  the payment of this Note shall operate to
release, discharge,  modify,  change or affect the original liability of
Borrower under this  Note,  either  in  whole  or  in part, unless
Holder agrees otherwise in writing.

      10.   RENUNCIATION AND ASSIGNMENT OF EXEMPTIONS.        Borrower
hereby waives  and  renounces  for  itself, its legal representatives,
successors and assigns,  all  rights  to  the  benefits of any statute
of limitations and any moratorium,  reinstatement,  marshalling,
forbearance, valuation, stay, extension,  redemption,  appraisement,
exemption, and homestead right, entitlement, or  exemption now provided,
or which may hereafter be provided, by the Constitution  or  laws of
the United States of America or of any state thereof, both as to itself
and in and to all of its property, real and personal, against the
enforcement  and  collection  of  the  obligations  evidenced  by  this
Note. Borrower  hereby  transfers, conveys and assigns to Holder a
sufficient amount of  such  homestead  right,  entitlement,  or
exemption as may be set apart in bankruptcy,  to  pay this Note in full,
with all costs of collection, and does hereby  direct  any  trustee in
bankruptcy having possession of such homestead right,  entitlement,  or
exemption to deliver to Holder a sufficient amount of property  or
money  set  apart  as  exempt  to pay the indebtedness evidenced hereby,
or  any renewal thereof, and does hereby appoint Holder the attorney-
in-fact  for  Borrower  to  claim any and all homestead right,
entitlement, or other exemptions allowed by law.

      11.   APPLICABLE  LAW.    This Note shall be governed by, enforced
under and  interpreted  in  accordance  with  the  laws of the State of
Ohio without giving  effect to applicable principles of conflict of laws
to the extent that the application of the law of another jurisdiction
would be required thereby.

      12.   LIMIT  ON  INTEREST.    If,  from  any  circumstances  whatsoever,
fulfillment  of  any  provision  of this Note, at the time performance
of such provision  shall  be  due,  shall  involve  transcending the
limit on interest presently  prescribed  by any applicable usury statute
or any other applicable law,  with regard to obligations of like
character and amount, then Holder may at  its option [i] declare the
entire indebtedness evidenced hereby, including interest,  and  all
other sums owing, immediately due and payable, [ii] reduce the
obligations to be fulfilled to such limit on interest, or [iii] apply
the amount  that  would  exceed  such  limit  on  interest to the
reduction of the outstanding  principal  balance of this Note, and not
to the payment of interest,  with  the  same  force  and  effect  as
though Borrower had specifically designated  such  sums  to be so
applied to principal and Holder had agreed to accept such extra
payment(s) as a premium-free prepayment, so that in no event shall  any
exaction  be  possible  under  this  Note that is in excess of the
applicable  limit on interest.  It is the intention of Borrower and
Holder not to  create any obligation in excess of the amount allowable
by applicable law. The  provisions  of this paragraph shall control
every other provision of this Note.

      13.   NOTICES.    All  notices,  demands  or  requests  provided
for or permitted to be given hereunder, shall be in writing and shall be
delivered in person or sent by registered or certified United States
mail, postage prepaid, return  receipt  requested,  or by overnight

      14.   LIMITED  EXCULPATION.  Subject to the provisions of any guaranties
of  the  indebtedness  created or arising under any of the Loan
Documents, but notwithstanding  anything  else  to the contrary in this
Note or in any of the other  Loan  Documents,  in  any  action  or
proceeding brought to enforce the obligation  of  Borrower  to  pay any
indebtedness or obligation evidenced by, created or arising under this
Note or the Loan Documents or any of them, or to exercise  any  right
of  foreclosure  or  power of sale contained in the Loan Documents  of
the  liens,  security  titles, estates, assignments, rights and security
interests  now or at any time hereafter securing any indebtedness or
obligation  pursuant  to  the  Loan Documents, the judgment or decree
shall be enforceable against Borrower only to the extent of the interest
of Borrower in the  Property, and any such judgment shall not be subject
to the execution on, nor  be  a  lien  on,  any  assets of Borrower
other than its interest in such Property, it being specifically
understood and agreed that Borrower shall have no personal liability
hereunder for the payment of this Note, and Holder shall look  only  to
the Property and any guaranties of this Note for the payment of the
indebtedness evidenced hereby; PROVIDED, HOWEVER that, notwithstanding
the foregoing provisions of this paragraph, Borrower shall be fully and
personally liable  at  all  times  for:  [a] any costs, expenses, or
liability, including attorneys'  fees, incurred by Holder arising from
any order, consent decree or settlement  relating  to the clean-up of
toxic or Hazardous Materials or waste products  (as  the  same  are
defined  in the Mortgage); [b] repayment of the entire unpaid balance of
this Note in the event of fraud or material misrepresentations;  and
[c] the misapplication of [i] proceeds paid under any insurance
policies  by reason of damage, loss or destruction to all or any portion
of  the Property, to the full extent of such proceeds, [ii] proceeds or
awards resulting from the condemnation or other taking in lieu of
condemnation of all or any portion of the Property, to the full extent
of such proceeds or awards, and [iii] from and after default, income,
rents, issues, profits, and revenues (collectively referred to as
"rents") arising or issuing from or out of all or any  part of the
Property to the full extent of such rents.  Nothing contained in  this
paragraph  shall  [x] be deemed to be a release or impairment of the
indebtedness evidenced by this Note or the lien of the Loan Documents
upon the Property;  [y] preclude Holder in the case of any default from
foreclosing the Loan  Documents  or  exercising  any power of sale
contained in the Loan Documents, or except as expressly limited in
this paragraph, from enforcing any of the  other  rights of Holder; or
[z] preclude Holder from enforcing its rights under  any  guaranties  of
the  indebtedness,  pursuant  to the terms of such guaranties.

construed  in  favor of Holder in order to effect the provisions of this
Note.
