                     NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                     Quarters Ended March 31, 1997 and 1996


1.       Basis of Presentation:

         The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been
         prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and do not
         include all of the information and note disclosures required by
         generally accepted accounting principles. The financial statements
         reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments,
         which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to a fair statement
         of the results for the interim periods presented. Operating results for
         the quarter ended March 31, 1997, may not be indicative of the results
         that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 1997. Amounts as
         of December 31, 1996, included in the financial statements, have been
         derived from audited financial statements as of that date.

         These unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with
         the financial statements and notes thereto included in Form 10-K of CNL
         Income Fund IX, Ltd. (the "Partnership") for the year ended December
         31, 1996.

         In addition, the following schedule presents total rental and earned
         income from individual restaurant chains, each representing more than
         ten percent of the Partnership's total rental and earned income
         (including the Partnership's share of total rental and earned income
         from joint ventures), for at least one of the quarters ended March 31:

         Although the Partnership's properties are geographically diverse
         throughout the United States and the Partnership's lessees operate a
         variety of restaurant concepts, default by any one of these lessees or
         restaurant chains could significantly impact the results of operations
         of the Partnership. However, the general partners believe that the risk
         of such a default is reduced due to the essential or important nature
         of these properties for the on-going operations of the lessees.

ITEM 2.           MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
                  AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

         CNL Income Fund IX, Ltd. (the "Partnership") is a Florida limited
partnership that was organized on April 16, 1990, to acquire for cash, either
directly or through joint venture arrangements, both newly constructed and
existing restaurants, as well as land upon which restaurants were to be
constructed (the "Properties"), which are leased primarily to operators of
selected national and regional fast-food and family-style restaurant chains. The
leases are generally triple-net leases, with the lessees responsible for all
repairs and maintenance, property taxes, insurance and utilities. As of March
31, 1997, the Partnership owned 40 Properties, including interests in 13
Properties owned by joint ventures in which the Partnership is a co-venturer.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

         The Partnership's primary source of capital for the quarters ended
March 31, 1997 and 1996, was cash from operations (which includes cash received
from tenants, distributions from joint ventures, and interest and other income
received, less cash paid for expenses). Cash from operations was $785,366 and
$744,181 for the quarters ended March 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively. The
increase in cash from operations for the quarter ended March 31, 1997, is
primarily a result of changes in the Partnership's working capital.

         Currently, rental income from the Partnership's Properties is invested
in money market accounts or other short-term, highly liquid investments pending
the Partnership's use of such funds to pay Partnership expenses or to make
distributions to the partners. At March 31, 1997, the Partnership had $1,251,484
invested in such short-term investments as compared to $1,288,618 at March 31,
1996. The decrease in cash and cash equivalents during the quarter ended March
31, 1997, was primarily attributable to the payment of a special distribution to
the limited partners of $35,000 in January 1997 of cumulative excess operating
reserves. The funds remaining at March 31, 1997, after payment of distributions
and other liabilities, will be used to meet the Partnership's working capital
and other needs.

         Total liabilities of the Partnership, including distributions payable,
decreased to $966,771 at March 31, 1997, from $984,251 at March 31, 1996,
primarily as a result of the Partnership's accruing a special distribution
payable to the limited partners of $35,000 at December 31, 1996, as described
above, which was paid in January 1997. The decrease in total liabilities was
partially offset by an increase in rents paid in advance during the quarter
ended March 31, 1997. The general partners believe that the Partnership has
sufficient cash on hand to meet its current working capital needs.

                                       7

<PAGE>



Liquidity and Capital Resources - Continued

         Based primarily on cash from operations, the Partnership declared
distributions to the limited partners of $787,501 for each of the quarters ended
March 31, 1997 and 1996. This represents distributions for each applicable
quarter of $0.23 per unit. No distributions were made to the general partners
for the quarters ended March 31, 1997 and 1996. No amounts distributed or to be
distributed to the limited partners for the quarters ended March 31, 1997 and
1996, are required to be or have been treated by the Partnership as a return of
capital for purposes of calculating the limited partners' return on their
adjusted capital contributions. The Partnership intends to continue to make
distributions of cash available for distribution to the limited partners on a
quarterly basis.

         The Partnership's investment strategy of acquiring Properties for cash
and leasing them under triple-net leases to operators who generally meet
specified financial standards minimizes the Partnership's operating expenses.
The general partners believe that the leases will continue to generate cash flow
in excess of operating expenses.

         The general partners have the right, but not the obligation, to make
additional capital contributions if they deem it appropriate in connection with
the operations of the Partnership.

Results of Operations

         During the quarters ended March 31, 1997 and 1996, the Partnership
owned and leased 27 wholly owned Properties to operators of fast-food and
family-style restaurant chains. In connection therewith, during the quarters
ended March 31, 1997 and 1996, the Partnership earned $665,121 and $700,271,
respectively, in rental income from operating leases and earned income from
direct financing leases from these Properties. The decrease in rental and earned
income was primarily attributable to the Partnership's establishing an allowance
for doubtful accounts of $21,000 relating to the Property in Copley Township,
Ohio, during the quarter ended March 31, 1997. During April 1997, the operator
vacated the Property and ceased operations; however, the Partnership will
continue to pursue the collection of past due amounts and will recognize such
amounts as income if collected. The Partnership is currently seeking either a
replacement tenant or purchaser for this Property.

         During the quarter ended March 31, 1997 and 1996, the Partnership also
earned $12,271 and $6,271, respectively, in contingent rental income. The
increase in contingent rental income is primarily attributable to a change in
the contingent rent formula in accordance with the terms of the leases, for
certain restaurant Properties requiring the payment of contingent rental income.

Results of Operations - Continued

         For the quarters ended March 31, 1997 and 1996, the Partnership also
owned and leased 13 Properties indirectly through joint venture arrangements. In
connection therewith, during the quarters ended March 31, 1997 and 1996, the
Partnership earned $106,248 and $105,320, respectively, attributable to net
income earned by these joint ventures.

         During the quarter ended March 31, 1997, five of the Partnership's
lessees (or group of affiliated lessees), (i) Carrols Corporation, (ii) TPI
Restaurants, Inc., (iii) Flagstar Enterprises, Inc., (iv) Golden Corral
Corporation and (v) Burger King Corporation and BK Acquisition, Inc. (which are
affiliated entities under common control) (hereinafter referred to as Burger
King Corp.), each contributed more than ten percent of the Partnership's total
rental income (including the Partnership's share of rental income from 13
Properties owned by joint ventures). As of March 31, 1997, Carrols Corporation
was the lessee under leases relating to four restaurants, TPI Restaurants, Inc.
was the lessee under leases relating to four restaurants, Flagstar Enterprises,
Inc. was the lessee under leases relating to six restaurants, Golden Corral
Corporation was the lessee under leases relating to two restaurants and Burger
King Corp. was the lessee under leases relating to the 13 restaurants owned by
joint ventures. It is anticipated that, based on the minimum rental payments
required by the leases, these five lessees or groups of affiliated lessees each
will continue to contribute more than ten percent of the Partnership's total
rental income during the remainder of 1997 and subsequent years. In addition,
during the quarter ended March 31, 1997, four restaurant chains, Burger King,
Hardee's, Golden Corral and Shoney's, each accounted for more than ten percent
of the Partnership's total rental income (including the Partnership's share of
the rental income from thirteen Properties owned by joint ventures). During the
remainder of 1997 and subsequent years, it is anticipated that these four
restaurant chains each will continue to account for more than ten percent of the
total rental income to which the Partnership is entitled under the terms of its
leases. Any failure of these lessees or restaurant chains could materially
affect the Partnership's income.

         Operating expenses, including depreciation and amortization expense,
were $146,757 and $127,102 for the quarters ended March 31, 1997 and 1996,
respectively. The increase in operating expenses during the quarter ended March
31, 1997, as compared to the quarter ended March 31, 1996, is primarily
attributable to the fact that the Partnership recorded bad debt expense of
$21,000 relating to the Property in Copley Township, Ohio, due to the fact that
the operator vacated the Property and ceased operations, as described above. The
Partnership will continue to pursue the collection of such amounts and will
recognize such amounts as income if collected. In addition, the Partnership
incurred real estate taxes relating to this Property of approximately $14,300
and

Results of Operations - Continued

$5,000 for the quarters ended March 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively. The
increase in operating expenses during the quarter ended March 31, 1997, as
compared to the quarter ended March 31, 1996, is partially offset by a decrease
in accounting and administrative expenses associated with operating the
Partnership and its Properties and a decrease in professional services as a
result of the Partnership incurring the cost of the 1996 appraisal updates
obtained to prepare an annual statement of unit valuation to qualified plans in
accordance with the partnership agreement during the quarter ended December 31,
1996. The Partnership incurred the cost of the 1995 appraisal updates during the
quarter ended March 31, 1996.
