PART I
Item 1. Business
CNL Income Fund IX, Ltd. (the "Registrant" or the "Partnership") is a
limited partnership which was organized pursuant to the laws of the State of
Florida on April 16, 1990. The general partners of the Partnership are Robert
A. Bourne, James M. Seneff, Jr. and CNL Realty Corporation, a Florida
corporation (the "General Partners"). Beginning on March 20, 1991, the
Partnership offered for sale up to $35,000,000 in limited partnership interests
(the "Units") (3,500,000 Units each at $10 per Unit) pursuant to a registration
statement on Form S-11 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The
offering terminated on September 6, 1991, at which date the maximum offering
proceeds of $35,000,000 had been received from investors who were admitted to
the Partnership as limited partners (the "Limited Partners").
The Partnership was organized to acquire both newly constructed and
existing restaurant properties, as well as properties upon which restaurants
were to be constructed (the "Properties"), which are leased primarily to
operators of national and regional fast-food and family-style restaurant chains
(the "Restaurant Chains"). Net proceeds to the Partnership from its offering of
Units, after deduction of organizational and offering expenses, totaled
$30,800,000, and were used to acquire 41 Properties, including 13 Properties
owned by joint ventures in which the Partnership is a co-venturer, and to
establish a working capital reserve for Partnership purposes. During the year
ended December 31, 1997, the Partnership sold its Property in Alpharetta,
Georgia, and reinvested the net sales proceeds in an IHOP Property located in
Englewood, Colorado, with an affiliate of the General Partners, as tenants-in-
common. During the year ended December 31, 1999, the Partnership sold its
Properties in Rochester, New York and Corpus Christi, Texas, and used a portion
of the net sales proceeds to reinvest in a Property in Albany, Georgia. In
addition, the Partnership reinvested a portion of the net sales proceeds in a
Property in Dublin, California and a Property in Montgomery, Alabama, each as
tenants-in-common, with affiliates of the General Partners. As a result of the
above transactions, as of December 31, 1999, the Partnership owned 42
Properties. The 42 Properties include 13 Properties owned by joint ventures in
which the Partnership is a co-venturer and three Properties owned with
affiliates as tenants-in-common. The Partnership leases the Properties
generally on a triple-net basis with the lessees responsible for all repairs and
maintenance, property taxes, insurance and utilities.
The Partnership will hold its Properties until the General Partners
determine that the sale or other disposition of the Properties is advantageous
in view of the Partnership's investment objectives. In deciding whether to sell
Properties, the General Partners will consider factors such as potential capital
appreciation, net cash flow and federal income tax considerations. Certain
lessees also have been granted options to purchase Properties, generally at the
Property's then fair market value after a specified portion of the lease term
has elapsed. The Partnership has no obligation to sell all or any portion of a
Property at any particular time, except as may be required under property
purchase options granted to certain lessees.
On March 11, 1999, the Partnership entered into an Agreement and Plan of
Merger with CNL American Properties Fund, Inc. ("APF"), pursuant to which the
Partnership would be merged with and into a subsidiary of APF (the "Termination
of Merger"). APF is a real estate investment trust whose primary business is
the ownership of restaurant properties leased on a long-term, "triple-net" basis
to operators of national and regional restaurant chains. Under the Agreement
and Plan of Merger, APF was to issue shares of its common stock as consideration
for the Merger. On March 1, 2000, the General Partners and APF announced that
they had mutually agreed to terminate the Agreement and Plan of Merger. The
agreement to terminate the Agreement and Plan of Merger was based, in large
part, on the General Partners' concern that, in light of market conditions
relating to publicly traded real estate investment trusts, the value of the
transaction had diminished. As a result of such diminishment, the General
partners; ability to unequivocally recommend voting for the transaction, in the
exercise of their fiduciary duties, had become questionable.
Leases
Although there are variations in the specific terms of the leases, the
following is a summarized description of the general structure of the
Partnership's leases. The leases of the Properties owned by the Partnership,
the joint ventures in which the Partnership is a co-venturer and the Properties
owned with affiliates of the General Partners as tenants-in-common, generally
provide for initial terms ranging from 7.60 to 20 years (the average being 17
years), and
1
<PAGE>
expire between 2005 and 2019. The leases are generally on a triple-net basis,
with the lessees responsible for all repairs and maintenance, property taxes,
insurance and utilities. The leases of the Properties provide for minimum base
annual rental payments (payable in monthly installments) ranging from
approximately $51,500 to $171,400. In addition, generally the leases provide for
percentage rent, based on sales in excess of a specified amount. In addition, a
majority of the leases provide that, commencing in specified lease years
(ranging from the third to the sixth lease year), the annual base rent required
under the terms of the lease will increase.
Generally, the leases of the Properties provide for two to five five-year
renewal options subject to the same terms and conditions as the initial lease.
Lessees of 26 of the Partnership's 42 Properties also have been granted options
to purchase Properties at the Property's then fair market value after a
specified portion of the lease term has elapsed. Fair market value will be
determined through an appraisal by an independent appraisal firm. Under the
terms of certain leases, the option purchase price may equal the Partnership's
original cost to purchase the Property (including acquisition costs), plus a
specified percentage from the date of the lease or a specified percentage of the
Partnership's purchase price, if that amount is greater than the Property's fair
market value at the time the purchase option is exercised.
The leases also generally provide that, in the event the Partnership wishes
to sell the Property subject to that lease, the Partnership first must offer the
lessee the right to purchase the Property on the same terms and conditions, and
for the same price, as any offer which the Partnership has received for the sale
of the Property.
During 1998, a tenant of two Properties, Brambury Associates filed for
bankruptcy, rejected the lease relating to one Property in Williamsville, New
York, and ceased making rental payments to the Partnership on the rejected
lease. The Partnership will not recognize rental and earned income from this
Property until a new tenant is located or until the Property is sold and the
proceeds from such sale are reinvested in an additional Property. The lost
revenues resulting from the lease that was rejected could have an adverse effect
on the results of operations of the Partnership if the Partnership is unable to
re-lease the Property in a timely manner. The General Partners are currently
seeking either a new tenant or purchaser for the Property with the rejected
lease. The Partnership continued receiving rental payments on the lease for the
Property in Rochester, New York, which was not rejected, and, in March 1999, the
Partnership sold this Property to a third party.
In March 1999, the Partnership reinvested a portion of the net sales
proceeds from the sales of the Properties in Rochester, New York and Corpus
Christi, Texas, in a Golden Corral Property located in Albany, Georgia. The
lease terms for this Property are substantially the same as the Partnership's
other leases, as described above. In addition, in November 1999, the Partnership
reinvested a portion of the net sales proceeds from the sale of the Property in
Rochester, New York in two IHOP Properties located in Montgomery, Alabama and
Dublin, California, with affiliates of the General Partners, each as tenants-in-
common, as described below in "Joint Venture and Tenancy in Common
Arrangements". The lease terms for these Properties are substantially the same
as the Partnership's other leases, as described above.
Major Tenants
During 1999, four of the Partnership's lessees (or group of affiliated
lessees), (i) Carrols Corporation, (ii) Flagstar Enterprises, Inc., (iii) Burger
King Corporation and BK Acquisition, Inc. (which are affiliated entities under
common control) (hereinafter referred to as Burger King Corp.) and (iv) Golden
Corral Corporation, 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 and three Properties owned as tenants-in-
common). As of December 31, 1999, Carrols Corporation was the lessee under
leases relating to four restaurants, Flagstar Enterprises, Inc. was the lessee
under leases relating to five restaurants, Burger King Corp. was the lessee
under leases relating to the 13 restaurants owned by joint ventures and Golden
Corral Corporation was the lessee under leases relating to three restaurants.
It is anticipated that, based on the minimum rental payments required by the
leases, these four lessees or groups of affiliated lessees each will continue to
contribute more than ten percent of the Partnership's total rental income in
2000. In addition, four Restaurant Chains, Burger King, Hardee's, Shoney's and
Golden Corral Family Steakhouse Restaurants ("Golden Corral"), each accounted
for more than ten percent of the Partnership's total rental income during 1999
(including the Partnership's share of the rental income from 13 Properties owned
by joint ventures and three Properties owned as tenants-in-common). In 2000, 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 if the
2
<PAGE>
Partnership is not able to re-lease the Properties in a timely manner. No single
tenant or group of affiliated tenants lease Properties with an aggregate
carrying value in excess of 20 percent of the total assets of the Partnership.
Joint Venture and Tenancy in Common Arrangements
The Partnership has entered into the following separate joint venture
arrangements: CNL Restaurant Investments II with CNL Income Fund VII, Ltd. and
CNL Income Fund VIII, Ltd., to purchase and hold six Properties; CNL Restaurant
Investments III with CNL Income Fund X, Ltd., to purchase and hold six
Properties; and Ashland Joint Venture with CNL Income Fund X, Ltd. and CNL
Income Fund XI, Ltd., to purchase and hold one Property. Each CNL Income Fund
is an affiliate of the General Partners and is a limited partnership organized
pursuant to the laws of the State of Florida.
The joint venture arrangements provide for the Partnership and its joint
venture partners to share in all costs and benefits associated with the joint
ventures in accordance with their respective percentage interests in the joint
ventures. The Partnership has a 45.2% interest in CNL Restaurant Investments
II, a 50 percent interest in CNL Restaurant Investments III and a 27.33%
interest in Ashland Joint Venture. The Partnership and its joint venture
partners are also jointly and severally liable for all debts, obligations and
other liabilities of the joint ventures.
CNL Restaurant Investments II's and CNL Restaurant Investments III's joint
venture agreements do not provide a fixed term, but continue in existence until
terminated by any of the joint venturers. Ashland Joint Venture has an initial
term of 14 years and, after the expiration of the initial term, continues in
existence from year to year unless terminated at the option of any of the joint
venturers or by an event of dissolution. Events of dissolution include the
bankruptcy, insolvency or termination of any joint venturer, sale of the
Property owned by the joint venture and mutual agreement of the Partnership and
its joint venture partners to dissolve the joint venture.
The joint venture agreements restrict each venturer's ability to sell,
transfer or assign its joint venture interest without first offering it for sale
to its joint venture partners, either upon such terms and conditions as to which
the venturers may agree or, in the event the venturers cannot agree, on the same
terms and conditions as any offer from a third party to purchase such joint
venture interest.
Net cash flow from operations of CNL Restaurant Investments II, CNL
Restaurant Investments III and Ashland Joint Venture is distributed 45.2%, 50
percent and 27.33%, respectively, to the Partnership and the balance is
distributed to each of the other joint venture partners in accordance with their
respective percentage interest in the joint venture. Any liquidation proceeds,
after paying joint venture debts and liabilities and funding reserves for
contingent liabilities, will be distributed first to the joint venture partners
with positive capital account balances in proportion to such balances until such
balances equal zero, and thereafter in proportion to each joint venture
partner's percentage interest in the joint venture.
In addition to the above joint venture arrangements, in July 1997, the
Partnership entered into an agreement to hold an IHOP Property as tenants-in-
common with CNL Income Fund III, Ltd. In addition, in November 1999, the
Partnership entered into an agreement to hold a Property in Dublin, California,
as tenants-in-common, with CNL Income Fund VI, Ltd., and an agreement to hold a
Property in Montgomery, Alabama, as tenants-in-common, with CNL Income Fund VII,
Ltd. Each CNL Income Fund is an affiliate of the General Partners and is a
limited partnership organized pursuant to the laws of the State of Florida. The
agreements provide for the Partnership and the affiliates to share in the
profits and losses of the Properties in proportion to each party's percentage
interest. The Partnership owns a 67 percent, 25 percent and 29 percent interest
in the Properties in Englewood, California, Dublin, California, and Montgomery,
Alabama, respectively. The tenancy in common agreements restrict each co-
tenant's ability to sell, transfer, or assign its interest in the tenancy in
common's Properties without first offering them for sale to the remaining co-
tenants.
The use of joint venture and tenancy in common arrangements allows the
Partnership to fully invest its available funds at times at which it would not
have sufficient funds to purchase an additional property, or at times when a
suitable opportunity to purchase an additional property is not available. The
use of joint venture and tenancy in common arrangements also provides the
Partnership with increased diversification of its portfolio among a greater
number of properties. In addition, tenancy in common arrangements may allow the
Partnership to defer the gain for federal income tax purposes upon the sale of
the Property if the proceeds are reinvested in an additional Property.

Certain Management Services
CNL Fund Advisors, Inc., an affiliate of the General Partners, provides
certain services relating to management of the Partnership and its Properties
pursuant to a management agreement. Under this agreement, CNL Fund Advisors,
Inc. is responsible for collecting rental payments, inspecting the Properties
and the tenants' books and records, assisting the Partnership in responding to
tenant inquiries and notices and providing information to the Partnership about
the status of the leases and the Properties. CNL Fund Advisors, Inc. also
assists the General Partners in negotiating the leases. For these services, the
Partnership has agreed to pay CNL Fund Advisors, Inc. an annual fee of one
percent of the sum of gross rental revenues from Properties wholly owned by the
Partnership plus the Partnership's allocable share of gross revenues of joint
ventures in which the Partnership is a co-venturer, but not in excess of
competitive fees for comparable services. Under the management agreement, the
management fee is subordinated to receipt by the Limited Partners of an
aggregate, ten percent, cumulative, noncompounded annual return on their
adjusted capital contributions (the "10% Preferred Return"), calculated in
accordance with the Partnership's limited partnership agreement (the
"Partnership Agreement").
The management agreement continues until the Partnership no longer owns an
interest in any Properties unless terminated at an earlier date upon 60 days'
prior notice by either party.
Employees
The Partnership has no employees. The officers of CNL Realty Corporation
and the officers and employees of CNL American Properties Fund, Inc. ("APF"),
the parent company of CNL Fund Advisors, Inc., perform certain services for the
Partnership. In addition, the General Partners have available to them the
resources and expertise of the officers and employees of CNL Financial Group,
Inc., (formerly CNL Group, Inc.) a diversified real estate company, and its
affiliates, who may also perform certain services for the Partnership.
Item 2. Properties
As of December 31, 1999, the Partnership owned 42 Properties. Of the 42
Properties, 26 are owned by the Partnership in fee simple, 13 are owned through
joint venture arrangements and three are owned through a tenancy in common
arrangement. See Item 1. Business - Joint Venture and Tenancy in Common
Arrangements. The Partnership is not permitted to encumber its Properties under
the terms of its partnership agreement. Reference is made to the Schedule of
Real Estate and Accumulated Depreciation for a listing of the Properties and
their respective costs, including acquisition fees and certain acquisition
expenses.
Description of Properties
Land. The Partnership's Property sites range from approximately 21,400 to
169,800 square feet depending upon building size and local demographic factors.
Sites purchased by the Partnership are in locations zoned for commercial use
which have been reviewed for traffic patterns and volume.

Buildings. Each of the Properties owned by the Partnership includes a
building that is one of a Restaurant Chain's approved designs. The buildings
generally are rectangular and are constructed from various combinations of
stucco, steel, wood, brick and tile. Building sizes range from approximately
2,100 to 10,600 square feet. All buildings on Properties are freestanding and
surrounded by paved parking areas. Buildings are suitable for conversion to
various uses, although modifications may be required prior to use for other than
restaurant operations. As of December 31, 1999, the Partnership had no plans
for renovation of the Properties. Depreciation expense is computed for
buildings and improvements using the straight line method using a depreciable
life of 40 years for federal income tax purposes. As of December 31, 1999, the
aggregate cost of the Properties owned by the Partnership and joint ventures
(including Properties owned through tenancy in common arrangements) for federal
income tax purposes was $14,379,873 and $12,704,635, respectively.

The General Partners consider the Properties to be well-maintained and
sufficient for the Partnership's operations.
The General Partners believe that the Properties are adequately covered by
insurance. In addition, the General Partners have obtained contingent liability
and property coverage for the Partnership. This insurance is intended to reduce
the Partnership's exposure in the unlikely event a tenant's insurance policy
lapses or is insufficient to cover a claim relating to the Property.
Leases. The Partnership leases the Properties to operators of selected
national and regional fast-food restaurant chains. The leases are generally on
a long-term "triple net" basis, meaning that the tenant is responsible for
repairs, maintenance, property taxes, utilities and insurance. Generally, a
lessee is required, under the terms of its lease agreement, to make such capital
expenditures as may be reasonably necessary to refurbish buildings, premises,
signs and equipment so as to comply with the lessee's obligations, if
applicable, under the franchise agreement to reflect the current commercial
image of its Restaurant Chain. These capital expenditures are required to be
paid by the lessee during the term of the lease. The terms of the leases of the
Properties owned by the Partnership are described in Item 1. Business - Leases.
As of December 31, 1999, 1998, 1997, 1996 and 1995, the Properties were
98%, 98%, 100%, 100% and 100% occupied, respectively. The following is a
schedule of the average rent per Property for the years ended December 31:

Leases with Major Tenants. The terms of each of the leases with the
Partnership's major tenants as of December 31, 1999 (see Item 1. Business -
Major Tenants) are substantially the same as those described in Item 1. Business
- - Leases.
Carrols Corporation leases four Burger King restaurants. The initial term
of each lease is 20 years (expiring in 2011) and the average minimum base annual
rent is approximately $85,617 (ranging from approximately $92,469 to $84,827).
Flagstar Enterprises, Inc. leases five Hardee's restaurants. The initial
term of each lease is 20 years (expiring in 2011) and the average minimum base
annual rent is approximately $65,900 (ranging from approximately $46,000 to
$83,600).
Burger King Corporation leases 13 Burger King restaurants with an initial
term of 14 years (expiring between 2005 and 2006) and the average minimum base
annual rent is approximately $103,700 (ranging from approximately $73,800 to
$134,100).
Golden Corral Corporation leases three Golden Corral restaurants with an
initial term of 15 years (expiring in 2005 and 2014) and the average minimum
base annual rent is approximately $155,363 (ranging from approximately $137,100
to $171,400).
Competition
The fast-food and family-style restaurant business is characterized by
intense competition. The restaurants on the Partnership's Properties compete
with independently owned restaurants, restaurants which are part of local or
regional chains, and restaurants in other well-known national chains, including
those offering different types of food and service.
Item 3. Legal Proceedings
On May 11, 1999, four limited partners in several CNL Income Funds served a
derivative and purported class action lawsuit filed April 22, 1999 against the
general partners and APF in the Circuit Court of the Ninth Judicial Circuit of
Orange County, Florida, alleging that the general partners breached their
fiduciary duties and violated provisions of certain of the CNL Income Fund
partnership agreements in connection with the proposed Merger. The plaintiffs
are seeking unspecified damages and equitable relief. On July 8, 1999, the
plaintiffs filed an amended complaint which, in addition to naming three
additional plaintiffs, includes allegations of aiding and abetting and
conspiring to breach fiduciary duties, negligence and breach of duty of good
faith against certain of the defendants and seeks additional equitable relief.

PART II
Item 5. Market for Registrant's Common Equity and Related Stockholder Matters
(a) As of March 15, 2000, there were 3,390 holders of record of the Units.
There is no public trading market for the Units, and it is not anticipated that
a public market for the Units will develop. During 1999, Limited Partners who
wished to sell their Units may have offered the Units for sale pursuant to the
Partnership's distribution reinvestment plan (the "Plan"), and Limited Partners
who wished to have their distributions used to acquire additional Units (to the
extent Units were available for purchase), may have done so pursuant to such
Plan. The General Partners had the right to prohibit transfers of Units. From
inception through December 31, 1999, the price for any Unit transferred pursuant
to the Plan was $9.50 per Unit. The price paid for any Unit transferred other
than pursuant to the Plan was subject to negotiation by the purchaser and the
selling Limited Partner. The Partnership will not redeem or repurchase Units.
The following table reflects, for each calendar quarter, the high, low and
average sales prices for transfers of Units during 1999 and 1998 other than
pursuant to the Plan, net of commissions.

(1) A total of 38,261 and 26,620 Units were transferred other than pursuant to
the Plan for the years ended December 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively.
The capital contribution per Unit was $10. All cash available for
distribution will be distributed to the partners pursuant to the provisions of
the Partnership Agreement.
For the years ended December 31, 1999 and 1998, the Partnership declared
cash distributions in the aggregate amounts of $3,150,004 and $3,220,004,
respectively, to the Limited Partners. Distributions for 1998 included $70,000
declared as a special distribution to the Limited Partners, which represented
cumulative excess operating reserves. No amounts distributed to partners for
the years ended December 31, 1999 and 1998, 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. No
distributions have been made to the General Partners to date. As indicated in
the chart below, these distributions were declared at the close of each of the
Partnership's calendar quarters. These amounts include monthly distributions
made in arrears for the Limited Partners electing to receive such distributions
on this basis.

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations
The Partnership was organized on April 16, 1990, to acquire for cash,
either directly or through joint venture arrangements, both newly constructed
and existing restaurant Properties, as well as land upon which restaurant
Properties were to be constructed, to be 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
December 31, 1999, the Partnership owned 42 Properties, either directly or
indirectly through joint venture or tenancy in common arrangements.
Capital Resources
The Partnership's primary source of capital for the years ended December
31, 1999, 1998, and 1997, was cash from operations (which includes cash received
from tenants, distributions from joint ventures and interest received, less cash
paid for expenses). Cash from operations was $2,868,096, $3,253,390, and
$3,157,964 for the years ended December 31, 1999, 1998, and 1997, respectively.
The decrease in cash from operations during 1999, as compared to 1998, was
primarily a result of changes in income and expenses as described in "Results of
Operations" below and changes in the Partnership's working capital. The
increase during 1998, as compared to 1997, was primarily the result of changes
in income and expenses as described in "Results of Operations" below.
Other sources and uses of capital included the following during the years
ended December 31, 1999, 1998, and 1997:

<PAGE>
In June 1997, the Partnership sold its Property in Alpharetta, Georgia, and
received net sales proceeds of $1,053,571, resulting in a gain for financial
reporting purposes of $199,643. This Property was originally acquired by the
Partnership in September 1991 and had a cost of approximately $711,200,
excluding acquisition fees and miscellaneous acquisition expenses; therefore,
the Partnership sold the Property for approximately $342,400 in excess of its
original purchase price. In July 1997, the Partnership reinvested approximately
$1,049,800 of these net sales proceeds in an IHOP Property in Englewood,
Colorado, as tenants-in-common, with an affiliate of the General Partners. In
connection therewith, the Partnership and the affiliate entered into an
agreement whereby each party will share in the profits and losses of the
Property in proportion to each party's percentage interest. As of December 31,
1999, the Partnership owned a 67 percent interest in the Property. This
transaction, relating to the sale of the Property in Alpharetta, Georgia, and
the reinvestment of the proceeds in an IHOP Property in Englewood, Colorado, was
structured as a like-kind exchange transaction for federal income tax purposes.
In February 1999, the Partnership sold its Property in Corpus Christi,
Texas, and received net sales proceeds of $1,350,000, resulting in a gain of
$56,369 for financial reporting purposes. This Property was originally acquired
by the Partnership in October 1991 and had a cost of approximately $1,319,986,
excluding acquisition fees and miscellaneous acquisition expenses; therefore,
the Partnership sold the Property for approximately $30,000 in excess of its
original purchase price. In March 1999, the Partnership reinvested the net
sales proceeds in a Property in Albany, Georgia, at an approximate cost of
$1,641,200. The transaction, relating to the sale of the Property in Corpus
Christi, Texas, and the reinvestment of the net sales proceeds in the Property
in Albany, Georgia, qualified as a like-kind exchange transaction for federal
income tax purposes.
In addition, in March 1999, the Partnership sold its Property in Rochester,
New York, and received net sales proceeds of $1,050,000, resulting in a gain of
$19,628 for financial reporting purposes. This Property was originally acquired
by the Partnership in December 1991 and had a cost of approximately $968,814,
excluding acquisition fees and miscellaneous acquisition expenses; therefore,
the Partnership sold the Property for approximately $81,200 in excess of its
original purchase price. In March 1999, the Partnership reinvested a portion of
the net sales proceeds in a Property in Albany, Georgia, as described above. In
addition, in November 1999, the Partnership reinvested the remaining net sales
proceeds in a Property in Montgomery, Alabama, and a Property in Dublin,
California, each as tenants-in-common with affiliates of the General Partners.
In connection therewith, the Partnership and the affiliates entered into
agreements whereby each party will share in the profits and losses of each
Property in proportion to each party's percentage interest. As of December 31,
1999, the Partnership owned a 29 percent and a 25 percent interest,
respectively, in the Properties.
None of the Properties owned by the Partnership, or the joint ventures or
tenancy in common arrangements in which the Partnership owns an interest, is or
may be encumbered. Under its partnership agreement, the Partnership is
prohibited from borrowing for any purpose; provided, however, that the General
Partners or their affiliates are entitled to reimbursement, at cost, for actual
expenses incurred by the General Partners or their affiliates on behalf of the
Partnership. Affiliates of the General Partners from time to time incur certain
operating expenses on behalf of the Partnership for which the Partnership
reimburses the affiliates without interest.
Currently, rental income from the Partnership's Properties is invested in
money market accounts or other short-term highly liquid investments such as
demand deposit accounts at commercial banks, certificates of deposit and money
market accounts with less than a 30-day maturity date, pending the Partnership's
use of such funds to pay Partnership expenses or to make distributions to the
partners. At December 31, 1999, the Partnership had $936,506 invested in such
short-term investments as compared to $1,287,379 at December 31, 1998. The
decrease in cash was partially attributable to the Partnership investing a
portion of the amounts held at December 31, 1998, in Properties, as described
above, and a decrease in rents paid in advance. As of December 31, 1999, the
average interest rate earned on the rental income deposited in demand deposit
accounts at commercial banks was approximately 1.25% annually. The funds
remaining at December 31, 1999, will be used towards the payment of
distributions and other liabilities.
Short-Term Liquidity
The Partnership's short-term liquidity requirements consist primarily of
the operating expenses of the Partnership.
10
<PAGE>
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.
Due to low operating expenses and ongoing cash flow, the General Partners
believe that the Partnership has sufficient working capital reserves at this
time. In addition, because all leases of the Partnership's Properties are on a
triple-net basis, it is not anticipated that a permanent reserve for maintenance
and repairs will be established at this time. To the extent, however, that the
Partnership has insufficient funds for such purpose, the General Partners will
contribute to the Partnership an aggregate amount of up to one percent of the
offering proceeds for maintenance and repairs.
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.
The Partnership generally distributes cash from operations remaining after
the payment of the operating expenses, to the extent that the General Partners
determine that such funds are available for distribution. Based on current and
anticipated future cash from operations, the Partnership declared distributions
to the Limited Partners of $3,150,004, $3,220,004, and $3,150,004 for the years
ended December 31, 1999, 1998, and 1997, respectively. This represents a
distribution of $0.90, $0.92, and $0.90 per Unit for the years ended December
31, 1999, 1998, and 1997, respectively. No amounts distributed to the Limited
Partners for the years ended December 31, 1999, 1998, and 1997, 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.
During 1999, 1998, and 1997, affiliates of the General Partners incurred on
behalf of the Partnership $178,711, $111,596, and $77,999, respectively, for
certain operating expenses. As of December 31, 1999 and 1998, the Partnership
owed $62,066 and $24,187, respectively, to affiliates for such amounts and
accounting and administrative services. As of March 15, 2000, the Partnership
had reimbursed the affiliates all such amounts. Other liabilities, including
distributions payable, increased to $932,229 at December 31, 1999, from $860,973
at December 31, 1998, primarily as the result of the Partnership accruing
transaction costs relating to the proposed Merger with CNL American Properties
Fund, Inc. ("APF"), as described below in "Termination of Merger." The increase
was partially offset by a decrease in rents paid in advance at December 31,
1999. Total liabilities at December 31, 1999, to the extent they exceed cash
and cash equivalents at December 31, 1999, will be paid from future cash from
operations, and in the event, the General Partners elect to make additional
contributions, from future General Partner contributions.
Long-Term Liquidity
The Partnership has no long-term debt or other long-term liquidity
requirements.
Results of Operations
During the year ended December 31, 1997, the Partnership owned and leased
28 wholly owned Properties (including one Property in Alpharetta, Georgia, which
was sold in June 1997), during 1998, the Partnership owned and leased 27 wholly
owned Properties, and during 1999, the Partnership owned and leased 28 wholly
owned Properties (including two Properties which were sold during 1999). In
addition, during 1999, 1998, and 1997, the Partnership was a co-venturer in two
separate joint ventures that each owned and leased six properties and one joint
venture that owned and leased one Property. The Partnership also owned and
leased one Property with an affiliate as tenants-in-common during 1997 and 1998
and three Properties with affiliates as tenants-in-common in 1999. As of
December 31, 1999, the Partnership owned, either directly or through joint
venture and tenancy in common arrangements, 42 Properties, which are generally
subject to long-term, triple-net leases. The leases of the Properties provide
for minimum base annual rental amounts (payable in monthly installments) ranging
from approximately $51,500 to $171,400. Generally, the leases provide for
percentage rent based on sales in excess of a specified amount. In addition, a
majority of the leases provide that, commencing in specified lease years
(ranging from the third to the sixth lease year), the annual base rent required
under the terms of the lease will increase. For further description of the
Partnership's leases and Properties, see Item 1. Business - Leases and Item 2.
Properties, respectively.

During the years ended December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997, the Partnership
earned $2,335,381, $2,363,610, and $2,572,954, respectively, in rental income
from operating leases (net of adjustments to accrued rental income) and earned
income from direct financing leases its wholly owned Properties. The decrease
in rental and earned income during 1999 and 1998, each as compared to the
previous year, was due to the fact that the Partnership established an allowance
for doubtful accounts of $206,000 and $97,300 during 1998 and 1997,
respectively, relating to the Perkins Properties in Williamsville and Rochester,
New York, which were leased by the same tenant, due to financial difficulties
the tenant was experiencing. No such allowance was established during 1999. In
May 1998, the tenant of these Properties filed for bankruptcy and rejected the
lease relating to the Property in Williamsville, New York. As a result, during
1998, the Partnership reversed approximately $267,600 of accrued rental income
(non-cash accounting adjustments relating to the straight-lining of future
scheduled rent increases over the lease term in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles) relating to both Properties. Rental and earned
income decreased approximately $210,100 during 1999, as compared to 1998, as a
result of the lease rejection and the fact that the tenant ceased making rental
payments in October 1998. The Partnership will not recognize rental and earned
income from the rejected Property until a new tenant is located or until the
Property is sold and the proceeds from such sale are reinvested in an additional
Property. The lost revenues resulting from the lease that was rejected could
have an adverse effect on the results of operations of the Partnership if the
Partnership is unable to re-lease the Property in a timely manner. The General
Partners are currently seeking either a new tenant or purchaser for this
Property. The Partnership continued receiving rental payments on the lease that
was not rejected, relating to the Property in Rochester, New York, and in March
1999, the Partnership sold this Property to a third party, which resulted in a
decrease in rental and earned income during 1999, as compared to 1998, of
approximately $203,200. In March and November 1999, the Partnership reinvested
these net sales proceeds in a Property in Albany, Georgia and two Properties
with affiliates of the General Partners, as tenants-in-common, as described in
"Capital Resources."
The decrease during 1999 and 1998, each as compared to the previous year,
was also partially attributable to a decrease of approximately $69,800 and
$52,000 during 1999 and 1998, respectively, due to the fact that the leases
relating to the Burger King Properties in Shelby, North Carolina; Maple Heights,
Ohio; Watertown, New York and Carrboro, North Carolina were amended to provide
for rent reductions. Rental and earned income relating to these Properties are
expected to remain at reduced amounts as a result of these amendments.
The decrease in rental and earned income during 1999 and 1998, each as
compared to the previous year, was partially offset by an increase of
approximately $6,100 and $93,800 for rental amounts relating to the
Partnership's Properties in Blufton, Alliance and North Baltimore, Ohio, during
1999 and 1998, respectively. During 1994, the leases relating to these
Properties were amended to provide for the payment of reduced annual base rent
with no scheduled rent increases. In accordance with a provision in the
amendments, as a result of the former tenant assigning the leases to a new
tenant during 1998, the rents under the assigned leases, reverted back to those
that were required under the original lease agreements. The increase during
1999 relating to these Properties was partially offset by approximately $33,600
due to the fact that the Partnership established an allowance for doubtful
accounts, due to financial difficulties the tenants are experiencing. No such
allowance was established during 1998 or 1997.
Rental and earned income decreased by approximately $142,600 during 1999,
as compared to 1998, due to the fact that, during 1999, the Partnership sold the
Property located in Corpus Christi, Texas, as described above in "Capital
Resources." The decrease was partially offset by an increase of approximately
$137,100 due to the fact that the Partnership, in March 1999, reinvested the net
sales proceeds in a Property in Albany, Georgia, as described above in "Capital
Resources."
Rental and earned income was also lower during 1999, as compared to 1998,
due to the fact that during 1999, the Partnership established an allowance for
doubtful accounts of approximately $19,500 relating to past due rental amounts
for the Property in Grand Prairie, Texas, in accordance with the Partnership's
collection policy. No such allowance was established during 1998 or 1997.
In addition, rental and earned income decreased approximately $47,700 and
$51,800 during 1998 and 1997, respectively, as a result of the sale of the
Property in Alpharetta, Georgia, in June 1997. In July 1997, the Partnership
reinvested the net sales proceeds in a Property in Englewood, Colorado, as
tenants-in-common, with an affiliate of the General Partners, as discussed above
in "Capital Resources."
The decrease in rental and earned income during 1998, as compared to 1997,
was partially offset by an increase in rental and earned income of approximately
$49,100 during 1998, as a result of the Partnership re-leasing the
12
<PAGE>
Property in Copley Township, Ohio, for which rent commenced in 1997. The former
operator of the Property ceased operations of the Property in April 1997,
resulting in a decrease in rental income of approximately $65,000 during 1997.
In addition, for the years ended December 31, 1999, 1998, and 1997, the
Partnership earned $59,287, $79,780, and $74,867, respectively, in contingent
rental income. The decrease in contingent rental income during 1999, as
compared to 1998, is primarily attributable to a decrease in gross sales of
certain restaurant Properties whose leases require the payment of contingent
rental income.
During the years ended December 31, 1999, 1998, and 1997, the Partnership
also earned $606,337, $596,166, and $537,853, respectively, in income
attributable to net income earned by joint ventures in which the Partnership is
a co-venturer. The increase in net income earned by joint ventures during 1999
and 1998, each as compared to the previous year, was primarily due to the fact
that in July 1997, the Partnership reinvested the net sales proceeds it received
from the sale of the Property in Alpharetta, Georgia, in an IHOP Property
located in Englewood, Colorado, as tenants-in-common, with an affiliate of the
General Partners. In addition, during November 1999, the Partnership reinvested
a portion of the net sales proceeds it received from the sale of the Property in
Rochester, New York, in a Property in Dublin, California, and Montgomery,
Alabama, each as tenants-in-common with affiliates of the General Partners.
During the year ended December 31, 1999, four of the Partnership's lessees
(or group of affiliated lessees), Carrols Corporation, Flagstar Enterprises,
Inc., Golden Corral Corporation and Burger King Corporation, 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
and three Properties owned as tenants-in-common). As of December 31, 1999,
Carrols Corporation was the lessee under leases relating to four restaurants,
Flagstar Enterprises, Inc. was the lessee under leases relating to five
restaurants, Burger King Corp. was the lessee under leases relating to the 13
restaurants owned by joint ventures and Golden Corral Corporation was the lessee
under leases relating to three restaurants. It is anticipated that, based on
the minimum rental payments required by the leases, these four lessees or groups
of affiliated lessees each will continue to contribute more than ten percent of
the Partnership's total rental income in 2000. In addition, four Restaurant
Chains, Burger King, Hardee's, Golden Corral, Family Steakhouse Restaurants, and
Shoney's, each accounted for more than ten percent of the Partnership's total
rental income during 1999 (including the Partnership's share of the rental
income from 13 Properties owned by joint ventures and three Properties owned as
tenants-in-common). 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 if the Partnership is not able to re-lease the Properties in a timely
manner.
Operating expenses, including depreciation and amortization expense, were
$773,627, $499,212, and $492,354 for the years ended December 31, 1999, 1998,
and 1997, respectively. The increase in operating expenses during 1999 and
1998, each as compared to the previous year, was primarily attributable to the
fact that the Partnership incurred $181,109 and $19,041, respectively, in
transaction costs related to the General Partners retaining financial and legal
advisors to assist them in evaluating and negotiating the proposed merger with
APF, as described below in "Termination of Merger."
The increase in operating expenses during 1999 was also partially due to an
increase in depreciation expense as a result (i) of lease amendments causing the
reclassification of two leases, one Property in Carrboro, North Carolina and one
Property in Shelby, North Carolina, from direct financing leases to operating
leases during 1998, and (ii) the acquisition of the Property in Albany, Georgia
in March 1999.
Operating expenses also increased during 1999 and 1998, due to an increase
in legal fees, insurance and real estate tax expense incurred in connection with
the tenant of the Property in Williamsville, New York filing for bankruptcy,
rejecting the lease, and ceasing rental payments. The Partnership will continue
to incur these types of expenses until a replacement tenant or purchaser is
located. During the year ended December 31, 1998, the Partnership established
an allowance for loss on building and an impairment in the carrying value of the
net investment in direct financing leases for a total of $314,775 for financial
reporting purposes relating to the Properties in Williamsville and Rochester,
New York. The losses represented the difference between each Property's
carrying value at December 31, 1998, and the estimated net realizable value at
December 31, 1998 for each Property. No such allowance was established during
the years ended December 31, 1999 and 1997.
13
<PAGE>
The increase in operating expenses during 1998, as compared to 1997, was
partially offset by the fact that during 1997, the Partnership recorded bad debt
expense of $21,000 relating to the Property in Copley Township, Ohio. The
former tenant ceased operating the Property in April 1997, and the General
Partners ceased collection efforts. The Property was re-leased to a new tenant
in September 1997.
As a result of the 1999 sale of the Property in Rochester, New York and the
sale of the Property in Corpus Christi, Texas, and the 1997 sale of the Property
in Alpharetta, Georgia, as described above in "Capital Resources," the
Partnership recognized gains for financial reporting purposes of $75,997 and
$199,643 for the years ended December 31, 1999 and 1997, respectively. No
Properties were sold during 1998.
The Partnership's leases as of December 31, 1999, in general, are triple-
net leases and contain provisions that the General Partners believe mitigate the
adverse effect of inflation. Such provisions include clauses requiring the
payment of percentage rent based on certain restaurant sales above a specified
level and/or automatic increases in base rent at specified times during the term
of the lease. Management expects that increases in restaurant sales volumes due
to inflation and real sales growth should result in an increase in rental income
over time. Continued inflation also may cause capital appreciation of the
Partnership's Properties. Inflation and changing prices, however, also may have
an adverse impact on the sales of the restaurants and on potential capital
appreciation of the Properties.
Termination of Merger
On March 11, 1999, the Partnership entered into an Agreement and Plan of
Merger with APF, pursuant to which the Partnership would be merged with and into
a subsidiary of APF. Under the Agreement and Plan of Merger, APF was to issue
shares of its common stock as consideration for the Merger. On March 1, 2000,
the General Partners and APF announced that they had mutually agreed to
terminate the Agreement and Plan of Merger. The agreement to terminate the
Agreement and Plan of Merger was based, in large part, on the General Partners'
concern that, in light of market conditions relating to publicly traded real
estate investment trusts, the value of the transaction had diminished. As a
result of such diminishment, the General Partners' ability to unequivocally
recommend voting for the transaction, in the exercise of their fiduciary duties,
had become questionable.
Overview of Year 2000 Problem
The year 2000 problem concerns the inability of information and non-
information technology systems to properly recognize and process date-sensitive
information beyond January 1, 2000. The failure to accurately recognize the
year 2000 could result in a variety of problems from data miscalculations to the
failure of entire systems.
Status
The Partnership generally does not directly own information technology
systems. The General Partners and their affiliates generally provide all
services requiring the use of information and some non-information technology
systems. In early 1998, affiliates of the General Partners formed a year 2000
committee ("the Y2K Team") that assessed the readiness of any systems that are
date sensitive and completed upgrades for the hardware equipment and software
that was not year 2000 compliant, as necessary. The cost for these upgrades and
other remedial measures is the responsibility of the General Partners and their
affiliates. The General Partners and their affiliates do not expect that the
Partnership will incur any costs in connection with the year 2000 remedial
measures. In addition, the Y2K Team requested and received certifications of
compliance from other companies with which the General Partners, their
affiliates, and the Partnership have material third party relationships.
In assessing the risks presented by the year 2000 problem, the Y2K Team
identified potential worst case scenarios involving the future of the
information and non-information technology systems used by the Partnership's
transfer agent, financial institutions and tenants. As of January 14, 2000, the
General Partners and their affiliates have tested the information and non-
information technology systems used by the Partnership and have not experienced
material disruption or other significant problems. In addition, as of the same
date, the General Partners are not aware of any material year 2000 problems
relating to information and non-information technology systems of third parties
with which the Partnership maintains material relationships, including those
of the Partnership's transfer agent, financial institutions
14
<PAGE>
and tenants. In addition, in the Partnership's interactions with its transfer
agent, financial institutions and tenants, the systems of these third parties
have functioned normally. Until the Partnership's first distribution in 2000
and the delivery of the information by the transfer agent to stockholders in
early 2000, the General Partners will continue to monitor the year 2000
compliance of the transfer agent. In addition, the General Partners will
continue to monitor the systems used by the Partnership and to maintain contact
with third parties with which the Partnership has material relationships with
respect to year 2000 compliance and any year 2000 issues that may arise at a
later date. The General Partners will develop contingency plans relating to
ongoing year 2000 issues at the time that such issues are identified and such
plans are deemed necessary.
Based on the information provided to the Y2K Team, the upgrades and
remedial measures by the General Partners and their affiliates, and the normal
functioning to date of information and non-information technology systems used
by the Partnership and those third parties, the General Partners do not foresee
significant risks associated with its year 2000 compliance at this time. In
addition, the General Partners and their affiliates do not expect to incur any
additional costs in connection with the year 2000 remedial efforts. However,
there can be no assurance that the General Partners and their affiliates or any
third parties will not have ongoing year 2000 issues that may have adverse
effects on the Partnership.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
-----------------------------
Years Ended December 31, 1999, 1998, and 1997
1. Significant Accounting Policies:
-------------------------------
Organization and Nature of Business - CNL Income Fund IX, Ltd. (the
-----------------------------------
"Partnership") is a Florida limited partnership that was organized for the
purpose of acquiring both newly constructed and existing restaurant
properties, as well as properties upon which restaurants were to be
constructed, which are leased primarily to operators of national and
regional fast-food and family-style restaurant chains.
The general partners of the Partnership are CNL Realty Corporation (the
"Corporate General Partner"), James M. Seneff, Jr. and Robert A. Bourne.
Mr. Seneff and Mr. Bourne are also 50 percent shareholders of the Corporate
General Partner. The general partners have responsibility for managing the
day-to-day operations of the Partnership.
Real Estate and Lease generally - The Partnership records the acquisition
-------------------------------
of land and buildings at cost, including acquisition and closing costs.
Land and buildings are leased to unrelated third parties generally on a
triple-net basis, whereby the tenant is responsible for all operating
expenses relating to the property, including property taxes, insurance,
maintenance and repairs. The leases are accounted for using either the
direct financing or the operating methods. Such methods are described
below:
Direct financing method - The leases accounted for using the direct
financing method are recorded at their net investment (which at the
inception of the lease generally represents the cost of the asset)
(see Note 4). Unearned income is deferred and amortized to income
over the lease terms so as to produce a constant periodic rate of
return on the Partnership's investment in the leases.
Operating method - Land and building leases accounted for using the
operating method are recorded at cost, revenue is recognized as
rentals are earned and depreciation is charged to operations as
incurred. Buildings are depreciated on the straight-line method over
their estimated useful lives of 30 years. When scheduled rentals vary
during the lease term, income is recognized on a straight-line basis
so as to produce a constant periodic rent over the lease term
commencing on the date the property is placed in service.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED
-----------------------------------------
Years Ended December 31, 1999, 1998, and 1997
1. Significant Accounting Policies - Continued:
-------------------------------------------
Accrued rental income represents the aggregate amount of income
recognized on a straight-line basis in excess of scheduled rental
payments to date. Whenever a tenant defaults under the terms of its
lease, or events or changes in circumstance indicate that the tenant
will not lease the property through the end of the lease term, the
Partnership either reserves or reverses the cumulative accrued
rental income balance.
When the properties are sold, the related cost and accumulated depreciation
for operating leases and the net investment for direct financing leases,
plus any accrued rental income, will be removed from the accounts and gains
or losses from sales will be reflected in income. The general partners of
the Partnership review properties for impairment whenever events or changes
in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be
recoverable through operations. The general partners determine whether an
impairment in value has occurred by comparing the estimated future
undiscounted cash flows, including the residual value of the property, with
the carrying cost of the individual property. If an impairment is
indicated, the assets are adjusted to the fair value. Although the general
partners have made their best estimate of these factors based on current
conditions, it is reasonably possible that changes could occur in the near
term which could adversely affect the general partners' estimate of net
cash flows expected to be generated from its properties and the need for
asset impairment write-downs.
When the collection of amounts recorded as rental or other income is
considered to be doubtful, an adjustment is made to increase the allowance
for doubtful accounts, which is netted against receivables, and to decrease
rental or other income or increase bad debt expense for the current period,
although the Partnership continued to pursue collection of such amounts.
If amounts are subsequently determined to be uncollectible, the
corresponding receivable and allowance for doubtful accounts are decreased
accordingly.
Investment in Joint Ventures - The Partnership's investments in three joint
----------------------------
ventures and properties in Englewood, Colorado; Dublin, California; and
Montgomery, Alabama for which the properties are held as tenants-in-common
with affiliates, are accounted for using the equity method since the
Partnership shares control with affiliates which have the same general
partners.
Cash and Cash Equivalents - The Partnership considers all highly liquid
-------------------------
investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased to be
cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents consist of demand deposits at
commercial banks and money market funds (some of which are backed by
government securities). Cash equivalents are stated at cost

-------------------------------------------
plus accrued interest, which approximates market value. Cash accounts
maintained on behalf of the Partnership in demand deposits at commercial
banks and money market funds may exceed federally insured levels; however,
the Partnership has not experienced any losses in such accounts. The
Partnership limits investment of temporary cash investments to financial
institutions with high credit standing; therefore, the Partnership believes
it is not exposed to any significant credit risk on cash and cash
equivalents.
Lease Costs - Lease costs associated with negotiating a new lease are
-----------
amortized over the term of the new lease using the straight-line method.
Income Taxes - Under Section 701 of the Internal Revenue Code, all income,
------------
expenses and tax credit items flow through to the partners for tax
purposes. Therefore, no provision for federal income taxes is provided in
the accompanying financial statements. The Partnership is subject to
certain state taxes on its income and property.
Additionally, for tax purposes, syndication costs are included in
Partnership equity and in the basis of each partner's investment. For
financial reporting purposes, syndication costs are netted against
partners' capital and represent a reduction of Partnership equity and a
reduction in the basis of each partner's investment.
Use of Estimates - The general partners of the Partnership have 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. The more significant areas requiring the use of
management estimates relate to the allowance for doubtful accounts and
future cash flows associated with long-lived assets. Actual results could
differ from those estimates.
2. Leases:
------
The Partnership leases its land and buildings to operators of national and
regional fast-food and family-style restaurants. The leases are accounted
for under the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
13, "Accounting for Leases." Some of the leases have been classified as
operating leases and some of the leases have been classified as direct
financing leases. For the leases classified as direct financing leases,
the building portions of the property leases are accounted for as direct
financing leases while a

2. Leases - Continued:
------------------
majority of the land portion of these leases are operating leases.
Substantially all leases are for 15 to 20 years and provide for minimum and
contingent rentals. In addition, the tenant pays all property taxes and
assessments, fully maintains the interior and exterior of the building and
carries insurance coverage for public liability, property damage, fire and
extended coverage. The lease options generally allow tenants to renew the
leases for two to five successive five-year periods subject to the same
terms and conditions as the initial lease. Most leases also allow the
tenant to purchase the property at fair market value after a specified
portion of the lease has elapsed.
3. Land and Buildings on Operating Leases:

Land and buildings on operating leases consisted of the following at

During 1998, the Partnership recorded a provision for loss on building in
the amount of $249,368 for financial reporting purposes relating to the
property in Williamsville, New York. The tenant of this property filed for
bankruptcy during 1998, and rejected the lease. The allowance represents
the difference between the carrying value of the property at December 31,
1998 and the estimated net realizable value for the property.

3. Land and Buildings on Operating Leases - Continued:
--------------------------------------------------
During February and March 1999, the Partnership sold its properties in
Corpus Christi, Texas and Rochester, New York, respectively, and received
net sales proceeds of $1,350,000 and $1,050,000, respectively, resulting in
a gain of $56,369 and $19,628, respectively, for financial reporting
purposes (see Note 4). These properties were originally acquired by the
Partnership in 1991 and 1992 and had a total cost of approximately
$2,288,800, excluding acquisition fees and miscellaneous acquisition
expenses; therefore, the Partnership sold the properties for a total of
approximately $111,200 in excess of their original purchase prices. In
March 1999, the Partnership reinvested a portion of these net sales
proceeds in a Golden Corral property located in Albany, Georgia, at an
approximate cost of $1,641,200. In addition, in November 1999, the
Partnership reinvested a portion of the net sales proceeds in two
properties held as tenants-in-common with affiliates of the general
partners (see Note 5).
Some leases provide for escalating guaranteed minimum rents throughout the
lease term. Income from these scheduled rent increases is recognized on a
straight-line basis over the terms of the leases. For the years ended
December 31, 1999 and 1997, the Partnership recognized income of $26,847
and $70,837, respectively, and for the year ended December 31,1998, the
Partnership recognized a loss of $209,852 (net of $267,600 in reversals),
of such rental income.
The following is a schedule of the future minimum lease payments to be
received on noncancellable operating leases at December 31, 1999:
2000 $ 1,688,910
2001 1,719,797
2002 1,814,486
2003 1,822,986
2004 1,822,986
Thereafter 8,600,498

the above table only presents future minimum lease payments due during the
initial lease terms. In addition, this table does not include any amounts
for future contingent rentals which may be received on the leases based on
a percentage of the tenant's gross sales.

</TABLE>
In August 1998, two of the Partnership's leases were amended. As a result,
the Partnership reclassified the direct financing leases to operating
leases. In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
13, "Accounting for Leases," the Partnership recorded each of the
reclassified leases at the lower of original cost, present fair value, or
present carrying amount. No loss on termination of direct financing lease
was recorded for financial reporting purposes.
As of December 31, 1998, the Partnership had recorded an allowance of
$65,407 for impairment in the carrying value of the Property in Rochester,
New York, due to the tenant filing for bankruptcy. The allowance
represented the difference between the carrying value of the property at
December 31, 1998 and the estimated net realizable value for the property.
In March 1999, the Partnership sold the property and received net sales
proceeds of $1,050,000 and recorded a gain of $19,628 for financial
reporting purposes, resulting in a total net loss of approximately $45,800.
The building portion of this property had been classified as a direct
financing lease. In connection therewith, the gross investment (minimum
lease payments receivable and the estimated residual value), unearned
income and the allowance for impairment in carrying value relating to the
building, were removed from the accounts and the gain from the sale of the
property was reflected in income (see Note 3).

6. Allocations and Distributions - Continued:
-----------------------------------------
Generally, net sales proceeds from the sale of properties, not in
liquidation of the Partnership, to the extent distributed, will be
distributed first to the limited partners in an amount sufficient to
provide them with their 10% Preferred Return, plus the return of their
adjusted capital contributions. The general partners will then receive, to
the extent previously subordinated and unpaid, a one percent interest in
all prior distributions of net cash flow and a return of their capital
contributions. Any remaining sales proceeds will be distributed 95 percent
to the limited partners and five percent to the general partners. Any gain
from the sale of a property, not in liquidation of the Partnership, is, in
general, allocated in the same manner as net sales proceeds are
distributable. Any loss from the sale of a property is, allocated first,
on a pro rata basis, to partners with positive balances in their capital
accounts; and thereafter, 95 percent to the limited partners and five
percent to the general partners.
Generally, net sales proceeds from a liquidating sale of properties, will
be used in the following order: (i) first to pay and discharge all of the
Partnership's liabilities to creditors, (ii) second, to establish reserves
that may be deemed necessary for any anticipated or unforeseen liabilities
or obligations of the Partnership, (iii) third, to pay all of the
Partnership's liabilities, if any, to the general and limited partners,
(iv) fourth, after allocations of net income, gains and/or losses, to
distribute to the partners with positive capital accounts balances, in
proportion to such balances, up to amounts sufficient to reduce such
positive balances to zero, and (v) thereafter, any funds remaining shall
then be distributed 95 percent to the limited partners and five percent to
the general partners.
During the years ended December 31, 1999, 1998, and 1997, the Partnership
declared distributions to the limited partners of $3,150,004, $3,220,004,

--------------------------
One of the individual general partners, James M. Seneff, Jr., is one of the
principal shareholders of CNL Holdings, Inc. The other individual general
partner, Robert A. Bourne, serves as President and Treasurer of CNL
Financial Group, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of CNL Holdings, Inc., CNL
Fund Advisors, Inc. (the "Advisor") was a majority owned subsidiary of CNL
Financial Group, Inc. until it merged with CNL American Properties Fund,
Inc. ("APF"), effective September 1, 1999. The individual general partners
are stockholders and directors of APF.
The Advisor provides certain services relating to management of the
Partnership and its properties pursuant to a management agreement with the
Partnership. In connection therewith, the Partnership agreed to pay the
Advisor an annual, noncumulative, subordinated management fee of one
percent of the sum of gross revenues from properties wholly owned by the
Partnership and the Partnership's allocable share of gross revenues from
joint ventures, but not in excess of competitive fees for comparable
services. These fees are incurred and are payable only after the limited
partners receive their 10% Preferred Return. Due to the fact that these
fees are noncumulative, if the limited partners have not received their 10%
Preferred Return in any particular year, no management fees will be due or
payable for such year. As a result of such threshold no management fees
were incurred during the years ended December 31, 1999, 1998, and 1997.
The Advisor is also entitled to receive a deferred, subordinated real
estate disposition fee, payable upon the sale of one or more properties
based on the lesser of one-half of a competitive real estate commission or
three percent of the sales price if the Advisor provides a substantial
amount of services in connection with the sale. However, if the net sales
proceeds are reinvested in a replacement property, no such real estate
disposition fees will be incurred until such replacement property is sold
and the net sales proceeds are distributed. The payment of the real estate
disposition fee is subordinated to receipt by the limited partners of their
aggregate 10% Preferred Return, plus their adjusted capital contributions.
No deferred, subordinated real estate disposition fees have been incurred
since inception.

----------------------------------------
The information denoted by N/A indicates that for each period presented,
the tenant and the chains did not represent more than ten percent of the
Partnership's total rental and earned income.
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 if the Partnership is not able to re-lease the properties in a
timely manner.
10. Commitments and Contingencies:
-----------------------------
On March 11, 1999, the Partnership entered into an Agreement and Plan of
Merger with APF, pursuant to which the Partnership would be merged with and
into a subsidiary of APF. Under the Agreement and Plan of Merger, APF was
to issue shares of its common stock as consideration for the Merger. On
March 1, 2000, the General Partners and APF announced that they had
mutually agreed to terminate the Agreement and Plan of Merger. The
agreement to terminate the Agreement and Plan of Merger was based, in large
part, on the General Partners' concern that, in light of market conditions
relating to publicly traded real estate investment trusts, the value of the
transaction had diminished. As a result of such diminishment, the General
Partners' ability to unequivocally recommend voting for the transaction, in
the exercise of their fiduciary duties, had become questionable.

as operating leases for federal income tax purposes.
(d) For financial reporting purposes, the portion of the lease relating to the
building has been recorded as a direct financing lease. The cost of the
building has been included in net investment in direct financing leases;
therefore, depreciation is not applicable.
(e) For financial reporting purposes, the lease for the land and building has
been recorded as a direct financing lease. The cost of the land and
building has been included in net investment in direct financing leases;
therefore, depreciation is not applicable.

(h) Effective January 1, 1995, the lease for this Property was terminated,
resulting in the reclassification of the building portion of the lease to
an operating lease. The building was recorded at net book value as of
January 1, 1995, and will be depreciated over its remaining estimated life
of approximately 27 years. During 1997, the Partnership re-leased this
Property to Shells Seafood Restaurants.
(i) This Property was exchanged for a Burger King Property previously owned and
located in Woodmere, Ohio, during 1996.
(j) Effective August 1, 1998, the lease for this property was amended,
resulting in the reclassification of the building portion of the lease to
an operating lease. The building was recorded at net book value as of
August 1, 1998, and will be depreciated over its remaining estimated life
of approximately 22 years.
(k) Effective September 30, 1998, the lease for this property was terminated,
resulting in the reclassification of the building portion of the lease to
an operating lease. The building was recorded at net book value at
September 30, 1998, and will be depreciated over its remaining estimated
life of approximately 23 years.
(l) For financial reporting purposes, the undepreciated cost of the Property in
Williamsville, New York, was written down to net realizable value due to an
impairment in value. The Partnership recognized the impairment by
recording an allowance for loss on the building in the amount of $249,368
for the year ended December 31, 1998. The impairment at December 31, 1998,
represents the difference between the Property's carrying value and the
estimated of the net realizable value of the Property. The cost of the
Property presented on this schedule is the gross amount at which the
Property was carried at December 31, 1999, excluding the allowance for loss
on the building.
