         Certain  statements made in this report may constitute  forward-looking
statements  within the meaning of Section 27A of the  Securities Act of 1933 and
Section 21E of the  Securities  Exchange Act of 1934 and  Milestone  Properties,
Inc. and its wholly-owned  subsidiaries  (together,  the "Company") intends that
such forward-looking  statements be subject to the safe harbors created thereby.
Such forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties and include, but
are not limited to, statements  regarding future events and the Company's plans,
goals and objectives. Such statements are generally accompanied by words such as
"intend,"  "anticipate,"  "believe,"  "estimate," "expect" or similar terms. The
Company's  actual results may differ  materially from such  statements.  Factors
that could cause or contribute to such differences include,  without limitation,
the  following:  (i)  its  plans,  strategies,   objectives,   expectations  and
intentions  are subject to change at any time at its  discretion;  (ii)  general
economic and business  conditions,  which may,  among other  things,  affect the
demand for retail space or retails goods, the availability and  creditworthiness
of  prospective  tenants,  rental  terms  and  the  terms  and  availability  of
financing,  are  subject to change at any time;  (iii)  adverse  changes in real
estate markets including,  among other things, competition with other companies;
(iv) adverse  changes in the properties the Company owns which could require the
expenditure of funds to fix or maintain such  properties;  (v) the general risks
of real estate  development and  acquisitions,  such as changes in demographics,
construction delays, cost overruns,  work stoppages and slowdowns,  the cost and
availability of skilled labor and weather conditions;  (vi) governmental actions
and initiatives, such as seizures of property,  condemnation and construction of
alternative  roadways;  (vii)  environmental  and safety conditions and hazards;
(viii) the adequacy of Year 2000 compliance  measures;  and (ix) other risks and
uncertainties  indicated  from time to time in the  Company's  filings  with the
Securities and Exchange  Commission and in the documents  incorporated herein by
reference.  Although the Company  believes that the  assumptions  underlying its
forward-looking  statements are reasonable,  any of the assumptions  could prove
inaccurate  and,  therefore,  the Company  cannot make any  assurances  that the
results  contemplated in such forward-looking  statements will be realized.  The
inclusion  of such  forward-looking  information  should  not be  regarded  as a
representation by the Company or any other person that the future events,  plans
or expectations contemplated by the Company will be achieved.  Furthermore, past
performance is not necessarily an indicator of future performance.

         The Company is engaged in the business of owning, acquiring,  managing,
developing  and  investing  in  commercial  real estate and real estate  related
assets. At June 30, 1999, the Company possessed  interests in 33 commercial real
estate  properties  consisting  of (i) 10  properties  owned  in  fee  and  (ii)
wraparound  notes  and  wraparound  mortgage  interests  in 23  commercial  real
properties  (individually,  each an "Underlying Property" and collectively,  the
"Underlying  Properties").  As master lessee under individual  leases on each of
the Underlying  Properties,  the Company leases an entire Underlying Property, a
shopping center or single-tenant  commercial property, from the master lessor (a
partnership  affiliated with the Company that owns the Underlying  Property) and
re-leases  such  Underlying  Property,  pursuant  to  operating  leases,  to the
tenant(s) who occupy such property.

Item 2. Disposition of Assets.

         On October 21, 1999, five wraparound  notes held by the Company on five
separate  single-tenant  commercial  buildings  (collectively the "Properties"),
were paid as a result of the sale of the  Properties by its owner,  an affiliate
of the  Company  (the  partnerships  that  owned the  Properties)  to  unrelated
parties.  In conjunction  with the sale of the Properties,  the Company,  as the
master lessee on a master lease on the  Properties,  canceled the subject master
lease.

         The negotiated sales prices of the Properties  aggregated  $12,500,000;
of these proceeds,  $7,135,000 was used to satisfy the underlying  mortgage debt
on the Properties  (which  represented  approximately 13% of the Company's total
liabilities at such time) resulting in the  realization of the wraparound  notes
held  by  the  Company.  The  wraparound  notes  on the  Properties  represented
approximately 15% of the Company's total assets.

         As a  result  of  the  sale  of  the  Properties,  the  payment  of the
wraparound  notes and the  satisfaction  of the  underlying  mortgage  debt, the
Company  received  approximately  $5,400,000  in cash and will realize a pre-tax
book gain of approximately $2,200,000 in the fourth quarter of 1999.

                      NOTES AND MANAGEMENT'S ASSUMPTIONS TO
                   CONSOLIDATED PRO FORMA FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                                   (Unaudited)


1.     Basis of Presentation

       The accompanying unaudited consolidated pro forma financial statements of
the Company have been prepared in accordance  with the  instructions to Form 8-K
and to Article 11 of Regulation S - X. The accompanying  unaudited  consolidated
pro forma  balance  sheet is  presented  as if the sale of the  Properties,  the
payment of the wraparound notes and the satisfaction of the underlying  mortgage
debt,  (hereinafter referred to as the "Transaction") occurred on June 30, 1999.
The  accompanying  unaudited  consolidated  pro forma statements of revenues and
expenses for the year ended  December 31, 1998 and for the six months ended June
30, 1999 are presented as if the Transaction occurred as of January 1, 1998.

       The unaudited  consolidated pro forma financial statements should be read
in conjunction with the financial  statements and footnotes  included thereto in
the Company's  Form 10-K for the year ended  December 31, 1998 and the Company's
Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 1999.  The  unaudited  consolidated  pro
forma financial  statements were prepared  utilizing the accounting  policies as
outlined in such  historical  financial  statements  except as noted herein.  In
management's   opinion,   all  adjustments   considered  necessary  for  a  fair
presentation  of the  effects  of the  Transaction  have been  reflected  in the
unaudited consolidated pro forma financial statements.

       As a  result  of the  Transaction,  the  Company  received  approximately
$5,400,000  in cash  and will  realize  a  pre-tax  book  gain of  approximately
$2,200,000  in the  fourth  quarter  of  1999.  Such  non-recurring  gain is not
reflected in the  accompanying  June 30, 1999 unaudited  consolidated  pro forma
financial statements.

       The  unaudited  consolidated  pro  forma  financial  statements  are  not
necessarily  indicative of the Company's actual  financial  position at June 30,
1999 or what the actual  results of  operations  of the Company  would have been
assuming the Transaction occurred as of January 1, 1998 nor are they necessarily
indicative of the Company's results of operations for future periods.


2.  Adjustments to Unaudited Consolidated Pro Forma Financials

       All of the adjustments are to reflect the effects of the Transaction. For
the unaudited consolidated pro forma balance sheet, such adjustments reflect the
cash proceeds realized from the Transaction,  the elimination of the Properties:
(i) wraparound  notes and related accrued interest  receivable,  (ii) balance of
the underlying debt, (iii) master lease payable and (iv) tenant  receivables and
other  assets  and  liabilities.   For  the  unaudited  consolidated  pro  forma
statements of revenues and expenses, such adjustments reflect the elimination of
the Properties: (i) rental and other revenues, (ii) property operating expenses,
(iii)  interest  expense on the  underlying  debt,  (iv) interest  income on the
wraparound  notes,  (v)  master  lease  expenses  and (vi) any  other  items and
expenses.
